There is more catarrh in'this section
of the country than all other disease
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local desease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls CT
tarrh Cure, manufactured by f. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitution cure on the market.
1t is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails
to cure. Send for circulars and testi-
monials. Address: f. J. Cheney &

CITY'S LAWYERS STUDY
OVERHEAD CABLE LAWS
Councilman Clampitt Asks for Fair
Play for Oil Man Who Seeks
Privilege Given Others
to Cross Streets

Because Councilman e. "A. Clampitt
thought a resolution rather than an
ordinance should be passed to give
George j. P. Ford permission to string
two cables across New Depot street the
council decided to let the city's legal
department get at the real facts and
then vote on it.
Ford wants to cross the street In the
Victor Heights tract with cable, the
intimation having been given that cer-
tain interests were trying to hold him
up by forcing him to use their high
priced facilities for drilling. Council
man Clampitt, who is an oil man him
self, said Ford should get the permis-
sion in the interest of fair play.
He opposed passing an ordinance as
that would. he said, make the city
liable for damages If the cable fell and
any one was hurt By merely passing
a resolution the same thing could be
accomplished without taking any
chances.
Oil Inspector Blackmar thought an
ordinance would be necessary while AS
sitant City Attorney Emmet Wilson did
not agree with Mr.. Clampitt's conten-
ton that passing an ordinance would
render the city liable for damages.
The law in the case at any rate will
be known next Monday.

HOLD UP PROMOTION OF
ACTING BOILER INSPECTOR
Neglected to Take Civil Service Ex-
animation, Hence May Have to
Take Back Seat Pending
Legal Inquiry

Though the city council named F.
e. Hayward as chief boiler inspector
yesterday the action was reconsidered
in the afternoon until certain ques-
tions as to the legality of the proceed
ing could be cleared away.
Mr.. Hayward has served as inspec-
tor for years. Recently when Joseph
l-olloway's resignation was hurriedly
accepted after he had taken leave of
absence and meanwhile qualified for a
better-paying job, Hayward acted as
chief.
Some time ago the civil service COM
mission held an examination for eligi-
bles for assistant boiler inspection in
spector. Hayward did not take the ex-
animation. as the place was for las
sist~nt," in which he had served, and
he did not suppose 1t was necessary.
Two men passed the examination.
Yesterday morning the Republican
members of the council decided to put
Hayward in as chief, but in the after
noon Councilman Wallace, non-parti-
san, scented a plot, SO he asked that
proceedings be stayed. He procured
a report from the civil service COM
mission showing that Hayward was
not one of the eligibles. He therefore
questioned whether the action had
been regular.
Deputy City Attorney Emmet Will
son answered for that office, saying
that If the examinations were held for
Assistant" boiler inspector they did
not apply to the chief inspector, if the
ordinance appointing the incumbents
differentiated between "chief'' and "as-
sistant" 1t was finally decided to let
the legal department work out the de-
tails and act finally on Monday next.

TO STOP REMOVAL
OF GAS METERS
ONE COMPANY APPEALS TO
CITY COUNCIL
Proposed Ordinance Requiring Days
Notice Before Connections Can
Be Tempered with Laid
Over a Week

At the instance of counsel for the
Los Angeles Gas and Electric COM
pany an ordinance was presented tc
the city council yesterday requiring
twenty-four hours notice by the con-
sumer to the gas company which
serves him before any meters or con-
nections in his house can be removed
This is an outgrowth of the COM
petition in the gas field caused by the
formation of the new City Gas COM
panv.
The ordinance as drawn up by At
torney Harvey d. Cheney grows Out
of alleged unauthorized cutting of con-
nections by representatives of compel
ing gas companies.
I'VE will have another deadly ex-
plosion if this practice is not stopped
said Judge Cheney, land it is a simple
matter to require proper notice so thai
the supply of gas Can be shut off al
the proper time.
1--WE have found some of our meters
on the citys dump pile, where they
had been thrown without our knowl-
edge and consent.
Under the civil co-e we are obliged
to furnish gas to customers until no.
titled to stop, a penalty of $50 standing
against violations. Now we ask that
such notice of stoppage be insisted on
1t is simply protective legislation"
1t was decided to refer the ordinance
presented to the city attorneys de-
partment for review and report at the
next session of the council, Councilmen
Wallace and Pease saying the other
gas companies should be heard from
also

SENATOR DODGE WILL
SPEAK BEFORE EAGLES
Former President of Two Eastern
Aeries Accepts Invitation to
Address Local
Lodge

State Senator w. w. Dodge, formerly
of Omaha, Neb., who has removed to
Los Angeles, has been asked to make
the principal address at the memorial
exercises of the local aerie of the
Fraternal Order of Eagles to be held
at their hall on Sunday, May II.
Senator Dodge has accepted the invi-
tation Of Secretary J. R. Schafer of Los

Senator Dodge stands high in that
order, having been president of two
aeries-No. $50 at Burlington, Iowa,
which numbered 500 members, and No.
3S Of Omaha, Neb., which numbered
1900 members.
He designed an aerie pin for the lat
ter, which bears the figure of an eagle
with outspread wings. while generally
the insignia has the eagle with folded
wings. and with the name Omaha
thereon, the only fraternal badge bear
ing the name of that city.

FAILS TO ACQUIRE
EXTRA FRANCHISE
UNION OIL COMPANY MUST
BlDE ITS TIME
Council Inclined to Demand Abandon
ment of One Pipe Route Privilege
Before Another Is
Granted

Again the Union Oil company asked
the city council yesterday to grant IL
an additional franchise for conveying
a pipe line under city streets so that
it can have a choice of two routes IN
bringing in oil from the county oil
fields. The council declined to act two
weeks ago on this subject.
The council demurred because the
members felt that one franchise should
be abandoned before another Is
granted.
Deputy City Attorney Emmett Wilson
said he would not approve a condl-
tioual agreement which was suggested,
by which the company bound itself to
relinquish one franchise when the
other one was made use of. He IN
sisted on absolute abandonment OF the
older privilege. .
The trouble grows out of the diff
Guilty in getting continuous right OF
way In some portions of Los Angeles
county. Rather than take the chances
OF interruption when pipe line con-
struction is started the company pre-
fers to acquire two routes inside the
city limits. 1t hopes to acquire county
rights in a short time.
At Councilman A. J. Wallace's mo-
ton the problem of how to give the
company a chance to build Its big pipe
line without giving away TWO iran
chises cheaply was turned over tc
Councilmen E. A. Clampitt and Waite,
Wren with instructions to confer with
the city attorney and the company
attorney and report nett week.
Councilman Clampitt urged haste
as he said the construction of a pipt
line would do away with much team
| ing and the consequent cutting up OF
| city streets.

REFERENDUM CLAUSE
PUT INTO ACTION
ANTI-TROLLEY PETITIONS PUT
BEFORE COUNCIL
Signatures Are Referred to City Clerk
for Verification, Ten Extra Dep
uties Being Authorized by
Lawmakers

Petitions were filed with City Clerk
Harry Lelande yesterday under the
referendum provisions of the city char
ter asking that the San Pedro-South
Park trolley franchise, sold for a song
to the Los Angeles Railway company,
be again advertised for sale to the
highest bidder.
The documents were filed in forty
seven sheets and the only action pos
sible under the charter was to refer the
petitions to the city clerk for verifica-
ton of signatures. This calls for a
search of the precinct books to see If
such signature represents that of a
voter.
Because of the primary election all
precinct books are out at present and
it will be two or three days before they
have been returned. hence the city
clerks deputies cannot go to work until
the latter part of the week. The lists
must be checked up within ten days
after filing under the law.
Deputy City Clerk Charles Wilde
asked the council to furnish at least
ten extra men at So day to do the
comparing, adding that they would be
used only as long as needed. Council
man r. w. Dromgold interjected that
only the required number OF names
should be checked up and not all OF
those on the petitions.
AS no overtime pay is allowed to the
city clerks deputies they object to
working nights and they say they can
not do the work during their business
hours. incidentally one of them must
remain on duty every evening while
the extra men are working to serve as
custodian of the petitions. How the
pay for this overtime will be fixed is
bothering the councilmen.

Prisoner Says He Is Now Sane, but
Admits He Has Frequently
Suffered from Insane

"Thank you, your honor, for your
Kindness" said Sampson Greengerg
yesterday as he stood before Judge

ing sentence of eighteen months at San
Quentin passed upon him.
Greenberg was arrested in January
charged with forging a check for $18
He told the court when he was ar
raigned several weeks ago that he had
at three different times been an in
mate of insane asylums-once in Eng
land and twice in Kentucky, and the
court continued the case until deposi-
tions could be received from the east
These papers reached Los Angeles a
few days ago and proved Greenberg's
statements to be correct, and yester-
day he was tried before a jury on a
charge of insanity.
During the trial Greenberg was asked
to take the stand, but refused. He.
however, made statement to the court
in which he declared that IL sent to the
asylum the surroundings there would
only aggravate his condition.
IT want to go to the penitentiaryi
your honor" said Greenberg. IT am
not insane now, although l admit
have been. Whether 1 passed that
check or not I cannot say, but believe
I did, as that is the way my affiiction
causes me to act"
The jury returned a verdict finding
Greenberg sane, and he asked to have
sentence pronounced at once, which
was done.

Under the new charter the chief OF

damages in the sum of $4,000 are de-

Geller said Mrs. Cohn attacked people,
had delusions and tried to make other
men believe she was married to them.
