TEAMSTER SHOWED THROUGH
CAR WINDOW; ARM IS CUT
Police Declare He Was Elected Twice
by Conductor and Third Time
Knocked Through Glass
and Injured

John Christopher 10 years old.
teamster living at 1911 Lemon street.
was treated at the receiving hospital
last night by Drs. Garrett and Tanner
for a liberation of the right upper arm
which laid open the flesh from the arm
pit for a distance of three inches, ex-
tending in to the bone.
According to the police, Christopher
created disturbance on Los Angeles
railway car No. 17S of the Mateo
street line at First and Vignes streets.
He was cautioned by the conductor
several times to behave himself. but
was finally thrown off the car twice,
each time returning.
Finally, the police say. he became so
obstreperous that it was found neces-
sary to eject him from the car third
time. and in the struggle the conduc-
tor, it is alleged, showed him through
a window of the car the broken glass
inflicting the wound

10000 MEN DROPPED
BY ENGINE WORKS
Baldwin Company in Philadelphia
Says Lack of Orders Has Made
Big Retrenchments
Necessary

Dy FsSotluteu EIesb
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. 5.-Ten
thousand men have been laid off since
December by the Baldwin Locomotive
works of this city because of lack of
orders for engines.
Samuel M. Vauclain, a member of
the firm, in speaking Of the conditions
at the works, said:
mo substantial orders have come in
since December. We have received a
few scattered orders and we are work.
ing upon these now. Whereas we were
formerly turning out sixty locomotives
a week, we are now turning out only
twenty, and we will have finished all
our wor,. in a short time.f Then, unless
we receive some substantial orders in
the meantime, we will have to close.
"Our full working force is about
$4,000 men, but the lack of orders has
compelled ua to lay off 10000 workmen
since December. The heaviest layoff
started about January l."
what has been responsible for this?"
was asked.
Lack of orders, not only from Amer
lean, but European, sources. Japan is
in financial trouble and is sending us
no orders 6 all. 1t is the same every
where, not only in America. but the
countries from which we have received
orders"
One thousand men formerly employed
hy the Pennsylvania Steel company at
Steelton, Pa, have been called back to
work after an enforced idleness of more
than a month. Rush orders from New
York for structural material for NUM-
cipal buildings and an order for rails
from the New York City Railway com
pany warranted the company in in
creasing it's present force to $500 men,
or about 40 per cent of the normal force.

BREAKERS ANT SEA WORMS
PILE COSTS ON LOST PILES
HYPERION'S OUTER PIER is
WASHING AWAY
City Engineer Hamlih Suggests Main.
tanning Pile Driving Apparatus
Near Sewer Outlet as an
Economical Measure

The city is confronted with the prob
lam of further expenditures on its ocean
sewer outlets.
One of the conditions under which the
city secured title to a right of way for
the new outfall sewer across land
owned by Nora Freeman in Inglewood
was that the city should renew and keep
in repair the outlet into the Pacific
ocean, 80 that sewage will at all times
be carried out INTO the ocean at least
800 feet beyond high water mark"
In conformity to this agreement the
cit.- constructed a pier in 1904 and re-
placed in 1905 the outer $50 feet which
had washed away.
The piling of this outer section, which
is most exposed to the breakers, has
been so injured by the toredo (sea
worm) that seven piles have gone out
during the last sixty days and en-
dangered the continuity of the struc-
ture
City Engineer Homer Hamlin has
recommended TO the board of public
works that he be instructed to at once
replace the piles already lost at a cost
of not over $500, after first securing
the approval of the council supply COM
mittee and an emergency demand for
the work
Mr.. Hamlin also recommends that
he be directed to prepare specifications
to provide for entering into a contract
to keep q pile driver at the. site and
replace the piles as they go out until
such time as the city can erect a per-
manent structure.
The cost per day of keeping a pile
driver at the site will be 50. This will
be cheaper than moving a driver to the
work every time a few piles go out, as
such initial expense will be 5000 each
time.
If the entire $50 feet of the outer sec
ton needs to be replaced before July l
next the cost will be about $2700 in adj
rition to tn sum needed for immediate
work, so that it is advisable to have the
maximum sum set aside.
These recommendations have no con-
nection with the reconstruction work
now going on west of the tunnel at
hyperion. As the wharf was intact
when funds were appropriated for re-
construction the necessity for repairs
to the pier could not have been an
ticipated.

DRUNKEN MEXICAN HELD
FOR ABUSING HIS FAMILY
Child Has Disappeared-Poliee Say
He Chased His Wife and Five
Little Ones Into the
Street

George Gonzales. teamster en-
ployed by the Occidental Fuel company
on Bay street, was arrested by Patrol
man Riggs last night and booked at
the central station on a charge of
drunkenness, with the notation hold"
after his name.
This means that Gonzales will be
held in Jail until it is ascertained If
a more serious charge cannot be placed
against him.
1t is alleged that re went home drunk
last night and whipped his wife, after
which he ran her and their five children
out of the house and chased them up
and down tie streets. One of the chill
dren, a tot years old, disappeared
during the exciting chase and up to a
late hour had not been located.
Gonzales was found in vacant lot
covered with blood and declared when
taken to the station that he had done
nothing to be arreste. for and that he
was not drunk.

PUSH Parish FOR
BOARD OF WORKS
NEW ouNcIL SLATE WOULD
ELIMINATE EDWARDS
Politicians at Sea How Holdover In
spector Could Be Forced Out
and Anderson Be Re-
appointed

The board of public works slate has
been changed again and the latest ef-
fort of the mayors advisers is to in
duce the reappointment of President
J. A. Anderson, the removal Cf pos
sible) of Inspector of Public Works d.
X. Edwards and the substitution OF y.
Eugene Parish of Mines & Parish.
Police Commissioner Nathan Cole, Jr.,
is said to have asked the mayor to
name Mr.. Parish; Fire Commissioner
Anthony Schwamm wants Joseph Mes
mer to go ON the board.
Such councilmen as have been sound
ed, it is said, have refused TO promise
to confirm Mr.. Parish, though the ma
jority will confirm Chief of Police ed
Kern.
The sentiment for Anderson's reten-
ton ON the board is overwhelming and
the problem is how to carry out the
plan of freezing out Commissioner Ed
wards.
Under the law. Inspector Edwards
holds on till his term expires next year
and about the only way to carry out
the slate would be to make charges, to
have a trial and then have the office
declared vacant.
Politicians say freely that it has long
been known that Mayor Harper and
Inspector Edwards have been at log
rerheads for some time, but they could
find no way to bring about deceplta-
ton.
The recent rainy spell and the re-
duced appropriations for the depart
ment have put the board of public
works on the defensive, but it is de-
clared that no one could do better now
to bring tie streets up to perfect
standard
Councilmen who are willing to stand
by the mayor if ne will order shake
nm saw that the streets were never in
worse condition and that someone IS
needed on the board who will devote
special attention to the streets to the
exclusion of aqueduct matters.
The councilmen get most of the COM
plaints about needs, such as cross
walks, cutters flushing grades and
notices, and must trudge into the
boards room Ak other citizens to
state their grievances or to ask favors
Mayor Harper has shown no sign of
settling the reappointment of Ander-
son and his friends say the many con-
flicting sets of advisers are responsible
for the delay.
Farish's appointment as urged by
Commissioner Cole is said to be an at
tempt to put a tried business man on
the board, one whose name has not yet
been mentioned, in the hope of adjust
ing the controversy.
However, the slate thai the council
wants now must include Anderson s
name, the leaders say.
Lawyers are wondering how it is pos
sible to reconcile this plan with the
fact that Commissioner Edwards would
have to be dislodged a year before his
term expires.

COUNTESS DIVORCES
EARL OF YARMOUTH

settlement, and it was learned from an
authoritative source that contrary to
certain published statements, the eff
feet of revising the settlement has not
been discussed by the principals or
their solicitors. and it is not likely to
be discussed The brevity of the pro-
ceedings came as a surprise to every
body except those engaged in the case.
That the hearing should be short was
arranged when the application was
made last week.
The fact that counsel of the earl Of
Yarmouth decided not to contest the
action of the countess made this posi-
BILE. This change from the previous in
tention to contest the case is said to
have been influenced by the evidence
given recently in New York at the trial
of Harry X Thaw, brother of the
countess. for the murder of Stanford
White, with regard to insanity in the
Thaw family, as we'll as the verdict of
the jury that Harry Thaw was insane
when he committed the crime.
Papers Kept Secret
The papers in the case are being kept
secret and all information regarding
the nature of the charges has been
carefully withheld. The statement
was made, however, that the character
of the medical evidence to be given
made a public hearing inadvisable.
1t has been well-known for two years
that the domestic affairs of the Var
mouths were unpleasant. The earrs
companions and his manner of living,
it was said, were such that he could
not give his wife the place in society
which she had right to expect.
She supplied large sums of money to
defray her husbands extravagances,
and her friends say that she has con-
Quoted herself with dignity through
out the troubles resulting from the I'M
happy union and the difficulties of her
brother, Harry Kendall Thaw.
The fact that the countess decided
definitely to seek an annulment of her
marriage was made known January 8,
when she applied o the divorce court
for a decree. The Hartford family. the
head of which is \ --rquis of Hartford,
whose heir the earl of Yarmouth is, is
one of the oldest and proudest of the
nobility. The marchioness of Hartford
stood by her daughter-in-law through
out her troubles and exerted herself to
reconcile the couple, but in vain. The
family of the earl is much distressed
at the notoriety brought upon it as
result of the ;tion taken by the
countess.
Since her marriage the countess has
made her home in England.

LE0POLD'S ATTEMPT TO

Treaty of Annexation Has Been With

Drafted
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
BRUSSELS, Feb. 5.-Before a meet
ing of the Congo commission yester-
day M. Schollart, the premier, an
nounced that the treaty of annexation
between the Congo Independent state
and Belgium had been withdrawn and
would be returned to the plenipoten-
tiaries with the object of arranging a
new text and new conditions.
The provisions of the treaty relating
to the crown domains, which had
proved a stumbling block in the adop-
ton of the treaty, will be eradicated
and replaced by a more acceptable
measure by which King Leopold will
be enabled to carry out the intention
framed in the first measure
The withdrawal of the treaty is re-
garded as a personal defeat of the
king, but it is believed this will insure
the speedy solution of the Congo ques-
ton.

LEAGUE TOOK RIGHT STAND

In declining to endorse either of
the candidates for Governor, the
Headquarters Committee of the Anti
Saloon Committee is to be commend
ed Both Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Brown
have taken a position satisfactory to
the demands of the Leaguers, and to
select one above the other would be
to depart from the standards under
which the League has professed to
be operating in this and in other
states.
Why all this clamor about the Gov
ernorship? Every one knows that the
Governor cannot pass laws, his only
function being to sign or veto such
as are presented. The fight, therefore,
should be made with the Legislative
candidates. They are the ones and the
only ones who can bring the law
into jeopardy. To begin on the
Governor is a kind of inverted pyra-
mid style Of doing business.
