future roads entering the city meant
the exclusion of the Southern Pacific,
the Santa Fe and the Salt Lake roads
from it's use.
Mr.. Gates argued that the financial
ability of the city at present was in
capable of dealing with the question,
but by franchise it could gain imme-
diately such a link with ocean traffic,
and that the provisions of the fran
chise amply protected the city.
No Limit Fixed
He was asked what limit was placed
on the grantee to complete the road,
and answered there was none. He an
swered question that the five-year
period for the city to exercise its op-
ton was insufficient and that litigation
would jeopardize, if not destroy, this
option, by saying that he did not be-
lieve it would.
Joseph Simons asked him what about
the wharfage at San Pedro, as there
was no provision in the franchise, and
another door at the very end of the
route might be closed in the city face.
Mr.. Gates answered that the city, by
exercising the right of eminent do
main, could provide it's own Wharves.
Mr.. Anderson based his argument on
the proposition that no franchise of any
kind should be granted. largely be-
cause of the lack of power on the part
of the municipality to own and operate
a railroad if it could close an option
on one. The river bed. he declared, was
one of the few valuable assets left to
the city, and affords the best oppor-
tunity for municipally-o road to
the sea. What we need is, not another
railroad to the sea so much as low
rates, which mean the moving of goods
from ship to warehouse. The city has
no legal power to regulate rates.

COUNCIL FINANClERS
URGE FIRE BONDS
COMMITTEE FAv0RS BY VOTE
OF TWO TO ONE
Proposed to Issue $35o,o0o for New
Buildings, Horses, Equipment and
Alarm System for the
Department

The councils finance committee, by
a vote of two for to one against, yes
terday decided to recommend to the
council on Monday that the question of
voting fire bond election be left to
the people. An issue Of $350,000 is con-
templated.
This question has been actively agi-
tated since last July, when, In making
up the budget, it was found that ex-
pansion of the department could not
be taken care of under the city's in
come.
The income this coming six months
will be larger than last year, but the
needs of the city, due to growth In
every way, are also greater. This puts
any extraordinary expenses out of the
question, it is believed.
Chairman A. j. Wallace of the COM
mittee opposes a bond issue, saying
that the council should manage the
city's finances in such way that the
expansion will be paid out Of the city's
taxes. Councilmen r. w. Dromgold

road will not be always in control, he
said, was a certainty. The keenest IN
tellects have not been able to draw a
contract that will prevent transfer of
ownership. 1t is a moral certainty
that a combination would soon be
formed between all the companies that
would restore high rates. He instanced
the building of the Santa Fe and the
Salt Lake routes as evidence of this.
A dozen roads, independent, but OPP
Grating under an agreement, would be
no relief.
City Can Eot Own
Assuming that the citys option was
valid, Mr.. Anderson held that the law
prevented the city from owning the
road, because it specifically provided
for the transfer of railroad corpora
tions, one to the other Under con-
demnation proceedings, the Southern
Pacific would have as much right to
condemn as the city, and 1t would
simply be a question as to which one
needed it the most and the doubt re-
solved itself against the city. The
franchise would open a dangerous ques-
tion.
The present applicant did not propose
condemnation because it did not intend
to pay for this strip, but asked it for
nothing.
That the prospective right of the city
under the franchise would be the sub
ject of endless litigation he thought
reasonable in view of the water pur-
chase of Los Angeles, and its arbitra-
tion confusion, the Pasadena expert
ence with it's water purchase and sew
eral other like experiences. The legal
status of the city at present bristled
with unsettled questions, any one of
which might, by a decision adverse to
the city, wreck an honest purpose.
The section of the charter permitting
the city, generally, to build or acquire
Los Angeles herald., 1908-05-24

merly a member of the board of public
works, was the antagonist. 1t was not
a debate, but presentation of differ
ing views.
Mr.. Gates prefaced his remarks by
saying that if there was any reason
that better solution of the question
of a connection between the city and
the harbor he and his associates were
ready to withdraw. But he believed
that the plan of the company worked
for the immediate and best interests of
the city. 10
Summarized, Mr.. Gates points were:
That the franchise provided an i'm
mediate connection between the city
and the harbor by way of the river
bed. This bed is 300 feet wide, but the
road only asks forty feet.
That the city may any time after five
years. or before ten years, acquire pos
session of the road on the basis of cost
and interest. Mr. Gates advocated
striking out of the franchise the pro-
vision permitting a sale at ian agreed
price" because this opened the door
to corruption and also the arbitration
clause. as this opened the door to in
terminable litigation.
City Could Fix Rates
That the city, by taking over the
road, could absolutely fix the rates on
freight between this city and San
Pedro. and overcome the inequality be-
tween this port and San Diego now ex-
listing.
That this company, operating in con-
junction with the Los Angeles Harbor
company, would be able to protect the
city in the matter of harbor facilities.
That there could be no benefit in of
fering the franchise for sale to the
highest bidder because that bidder
would be the Southern Pacific road.
That the provision combining the use

In the making of such glove Is esti-

A necktie made of silver threads, the

FOR AND AGAINST
RIVER BED ROAD
GATES AND ANDERSON SPEAK
TO CITY CLUB
FRANCHISES ASKED BASIS OF
DISCUSSION
Gates Favors Grant as Means of ln-
mediate Relief-Anderson Says
Any Franchise Would
Defeat City

What is best to do in reference to
the granting of franchise for rail-
road in the river bed between Los An
geles and San Pedro harbor was dis
cussed by two speakers at the weekly
meeting of the City club at the West
minister yesterday noon.
The discussion was based on the ap-
plication of the Los Angeles Harbor
Railroad company for franchise to
build a road over a strip forty feet in
the river bed within the city limits.
This application is now pending be-
fore the city council.
Lee C. Gates, former president of the
club and stockholder and director in
the Harbor Railroad company, was the
nrotagonist James A. Anderson. for

tried In vain to dissuade him from the
belief.
Chief Walter Lips was instructed to
prepare the necessary data for the
council, while the city attorney was in
structed to draw up the necessary pre-
liminary ordinance.
The money will be spent in building
new engine houses, adding horses and
equipment, building a headquarters
building and probably In installing
new fire alarm system.

railroads has not been adjudicated, and
might mean, in the opinion of the
courts, that it could only build and
acquire for the purposes of the munich
pality.
Mr.. Anderson thought that the city
would be best armed to wait and OBJ
tain a charter amendment that would
clearly give it the power to do what
it wanted to do.
I'VE can get this and we will get it,

HARR|GAN WILL
HAVE SECRETARY
SALARY IS FIXED
Sheriff Expected to Name Third
Warder to $1,000 Post.
Reilly Gets Raise

As Sheriff William Harrigan decided
to take advantage of the law which
allows to him a private secretary. his
personal counsel, william J. Kearns, ap-
peared before the finance committee OF
the Board of Freeholders late yester-
day afternoon and asked that 1t perform
it's duty in the matter, which is simply
to fix the salary. This was done, and
the figure finally agreed upon was $1,000
a year.
The secretary will be the personal
a~ppointee of the sheriff, and his name
will be announced as soon as the COM
mittee's action has been formally con-
frmed by the Board of Freehplders at
it's regular November session this after
moor. The lucky man picked out, it is
said, is a Third warder.
The new sheriff also secured from the
committee a recommendation making
the salary of his chief deputy, or first
assistant, Charles Reilly, s2,60o-a year.
That is $500 more than the Job was
worth when Charles Meeks Mason had
it. The explanation was made to the
satisfaction of .he committee Mr..
Reilly's duties would be more arduous
than Mason's were, and that in Sheriff
Harrigan's absence Mr.. Reilly would
be in charge.

.BABY'S DEATH IN
HOSPITAL REVEALS
4 SAD ROMANCE
Tubercnlar Parents, Newarkers,
Meet in Sanitarium and Defy
Fate to Wed.
-
DIES HERE
ABOUT MONTH AGO
Mother, Who Knows She Is Un=
der Death Sentence, May Re-
turn to Denver.

The death in the City Hospital to-
day of a 3-months'- old baby revealed a
pathetic romance in, which death from
the white plague held no terrors to
stay the course of Cupid.
The baby, Anna Ka1kush, was born
in the hospital on August II. It's par
ents had been discharged from a con
sumption hospital because they had
violated one of the institutions most
rimony. The father of the baby died
In the City Hospital a month after the
infants birth.
Before Mrs. Carrie Kalkush, who
now lives at 1888 Washington street,
went to the C~onsumptives' Hospital at
Denver three years g. she had been
a manicurist in Newark. She had come
from Austria a few years before. The
white plague claimed her and the doc
tors hurried her away to Denver In
the same hospital there was Bernard
Kalkush, who had come from Russia
n who had lived in Newark before
being sent to Denver. In the hospital
and about the grounds they met daily;
their love was spontaneous, and no
rule of n doctor and : no warming,
even of death, could separate them.
So they were married a year 6 and
were the banished from the institu-
ton. 'f}i '' 4 g. ritNf 2
They came back to Newark a few
months ago. Both fell ill with the old
disease inc both were ent to the City
Hospital here, he to die.
The baby was born August II n the
doctors spoke truly when they pre-
dicted that 1t had not the ghost of a
show in the battle against the disease
which had been its heritage. The
father sank rapidly and died on Sep
TENDER 49,
Mrs. Kalkush's losing fight against
consumption has not progressed as far
as that of her husband, and she was
discharged a few weeks ago from the
hospital, but in her home today she
said she knew the sentence of death
was over her. Her friends may send
her to Denver again, in a few days, in
the hope of standing off the end a while
longer.
From the time the baby was born it
was doomed. The doctors said there
could be but n result. They mar
veled that it lived as long as 1t did. r.

would procure for them lucrative posi-

leased only a few days g from the
county Jail, where he served six months
for selling a horse that did not belong
to him.
But since his release he has lost no
time, for we have several complaints
which tend to indicate that he. has been
getting small amounts of money from
young men to whom he promised good
positions. One young man has identi-
fed him as the man to whom he gave

windows, a job which did not mate
