WILDLY DESCRIBES
KILLING OF MOTHER
WILMINGTON YOUTH TELLS
THRILLING STORY
Fires at AssaiIant Armed with a
Knife. Strikes Him with Fist and
Struggles Almost Fifteen
Minutes

John Varilla, IS years old, slender
boy, told a thrilling story to jury in
the superior court yesterday of how he
had tried unsuCcessfully to save his
mother from the death blows of a muir
demonstrating dagger welded by Fa-
bronio Mechuca at Wilmington shortly
after midnight August 49,
Mechuca was placed on trial at noon,
charged with the murder of Mrs. Re
fugio Yorba, Varilla's mother Varilla
said he WAS awakened by his mothers
screams for help He picked up his re
Volver, q, 44-caliber Colt and ran from
the house Seeing nobody he returned
and discovered his mother lying on a
bed, her body hacked in terrible
manner.
81 left the house to call for assist
ance," said Varilla, land found Me-
chuca near the gate. I struck him with
my fist and he rushed at me with his
knife. Then l fired. The bullet struck
him and he fell but was up in an in
slant and came at me like a tiger. 1
tried to fire again but the cartridge
was defective Then l threw the re-
, VolYer away and struck Mechuca with
| my fist We were on the porch then,
and as he fell backward he pulled me
with him. We struggled for almost
fifteen minutes. He succeeded In stick
| ing his knife into my left shoulder just
as my mother dragged herself from the
house to assist me. When MechucG
saw her he cut her again.
II tried to get the knife, but Mechuca
threw us both to the ground and again
attacked my mother"
At this moment. said Varilla, his
brother, Will Vanilla, came upon the
bloody scene. Mechca broke away from
the boy and attacked the older brother.
will fired a shot," said the witness,
land Mechuca staggered backward and
fell beside my mother AS he did so
he raised his hand and stabbed her to
death. Then Will shot him again.
VIII Varilla, the brother, q years
old, was the second witness yesterday.
He told of his efforts to overcome
Mechuca and described the terrible
wounds inflicted upon his mothers
body.
Mechuca, according to the Varillas,
had nursed an enmity against the
family for long time preceding the
killing of their mother.
The trial will be resumed today.

COUNCIL ANXIOUS TO
AVOID MUCH DAMAGE
Storms Make II Necessary to Provide
Outlet for Arroyo Seco Overflow,
but Property Owners
Protest

Almost the entire time of the city
council yesterday afternoon was occu-
pied in the hearing of protest from
property owners in what is known as
the Highland Park Metz tract.
This tract is situated on the edge of
the Arroyo SecO, in low ground, and
the board of public works proposes to
place culVerts under Pasadena avenue
and Marmion way and thus to allow
storm water to flood homes that have
been built in this tract.
According to a report rendered by
Assistant City Attorney Lewis r.
Works, this Is about the only solution
the board or the council has for this
water problem
Pasadena avenue. in the last few
years, has been graded to a height that
makes it dam for the storm water
that comes down from the mountains In
the northwest This water accumu-
lates i'm stump holes at GarVanza, in
such quantities that it would float
battleship and 1t remains stagnant in
these pools until September. This stag
nant water has proved a menace to
the health of residents in the neigh
borhood and they threaten damage
suits against the city. One property
owner declared that unless relief
speedily is granted he viii bring a
damage suit against the city before the
next pollywog waggles its tail in this
frog pond.
According to the assistant city at
torney, should damage suits be insti-
tuted, the city hardly would have a leg
to stand on.
While the council recognizes the
necessity for placing these culverts
and thus letting the water flood the lit
tie homes in the Metz tract. it is also
anxious to cause az little damage to
these homes as Is possible
1t is suggested a retaining wall can
be built along Arroyo Seco drive and
the water allowed to flow down that
street into the arroyo.
In order to determine the matter the
city council i'm a body will visit the
place this morning and at its meeting
this afternoon viii try to settle the
problem.

PROTESTS FILED AGAINST

Aqueduct Managers Say Workers Will
Be OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Take
the Application Under Adj
Vsement

When the application of Nick Siam
book for d license to run a saloon at
Neenach, near the limo of the aquedu"t L,
was read at the meeting of tho board
of supervisors yesterday it was accom-
panied by protests from the advisory
committee of the aqueduct and the Los
Angeles board OF public works.
1T is a matter of great financial III
terest to the city of Los Angeles to Gre
ate conditions along the aqueduct line
which will tend to promote efficiency
in our force" reads the protest from
the board of public works. AN enter
prise of this magnitude requires rigid
rules and regulations in order to avoid
great expense. We have been making
every effort to prohibit the consump-
ton of liquor by our employees. as we
have found that their efficiency is
much greater where they are free from
the influences which surround the use
of intoxicants"
ThSs protest was echoed by the adj
visory committee. Both objections to
the granting of the application were
ignored, the clerk not even being called
upon to read them. A motion by
George Alexander to refuse the appll-
cation received the same fate, ana the
application was taken under advise
ment without discussion

enjoy good patronage.
