FORMER DETECTIVE
ARRAIGNED IN COURT
Man Is Said to Have Given Paper in
Payment for Office Rent and
Other Debts-To Be Tried
February %

Charged with issuing worthless
checks, Eugene p. Walton, 1911 Ell
Moline street, former head of the
Southern Detective agency and the
Walton. Boscha detective bureau, was
arraigned in police court yesterday
morning and his preliminary examina-
ton set for February %.
According to Cashier Reed of the
Merchants Trust company, Walton
rented a suite of rooms on the second
floor of the Merchants Trust building
three months ago and never paid for
them.
1t is alleged Walton bought furni-
ture on the installment plan. This
furniture was used for fitting up the
offices of the Southern Detective
agency. Arthur H. Dean, formerly
with the Pinkertons, was taken in as
a partner. Dean says that Walton's
business methods did not meet his
approval and they dissolved partner
ship.
Walton, it is said, gave Cashier Reed
of the Merchants Trust company
checks on a mythical bank account in
payment for debts. Last Friday he
gave the cashier a check for $75 for
rent for his suite. This check was re-
turned marked mo funds"
A number of checks, all worthless,
were handed to the police yesterday
morning. All were signed with Wall
tons name.

Y. M. C. A. PLANS TO
WELCOME VISITING TARS
Association Has Engaged One Hum
bred Automobiles to Give Trip
Around the City While
Here

One hundred automobiles will be en-
gagged by the Los Angeles Y. M. C. A.
to give the visiting sailors of Evans
battleship feet, who are also members
of the Y. M. C. A, trips around the
city. Not only the members of the
association but the other jack tars will
be helped by the local association, fif-
teen prominent business men of Los
Angeles having agreed to support
financially the undertaking.
Secretary T.. A Luther of the Y. M.
C, A. has not perfected the details yet,
but is thinking, among other things, of
erecting large tent in the beach city
off which the fleet will be anchored, so
that the men on shore leave may rest
and read and write in the rooms there
provided for them.
The Church Federation has promised
its aid to the association in this mat
ter, plan which is approved of by
President Roosevelt and Admiral
Dewey; the latter expressing the hope
that the San Francisco Y. M. c. A.
will aid the men on shore as the
Brooklyn association has done.
"A policeman is authority for the
statement" said Secretary Luther,
that because of the Y. M. c. A. build
ing at Brooklyn 5000 sailors were
handled there without an arrest, while
a hundred heads would have been
broken If that crowd had been COM
posed Of college men,"

THINK DEATH WAS
DUE TO ACCIDENT

That Solomon Rey Ramirez, who died
at the Sisters hospital at 5 o'clock
Monday evening, came to his death as
the result of an accidental fall instead
of being beaten to death by robbers is
the opinion of the police authorities
The victims hat and small guam
tity of blood were found under the
front porch of the house.
The first theory was that the dead
man had been struck down from the
porch, but the police now believe Rami7
reg fell to the ground and landed on
his head. The mans valuables were
not touched.
1t is thought Ramirez fell from the
front verarda. He then made his way
to the back of the house and fell from
the wall to the concrete pavement.
where large pool of blood was found.
He finally made his way to his room,
where he was found at o'clock by his
brother, who was attracted to his room
by his groans.
An autopsy was held on the body
yesterday morning. 1t was found that
he received no other injuries save to
the head. The skull had vertical
fracture which was crossed by hori-
zontal fracture, both being on the
bac' of the head.
1t is probable an inquest will be held
over the body today.

REVISIONISTS
FIX COUNCIL
PROPOSITIONS
ORDER C0UNCILMEN-AT-LARGE
INCORPORATED
WARD SYSTEM WILL SERVE AS
ALTERNATIVE
With Three Absentees, Question Will
Be Revived at Next Tuesdays
Meeting for Final
Action

With three members absent the
charter commission last night finally
reached at least a temporary conclusion
on the question of how councilmen
shall be elected.
The commission decided that the
provision that councilmen at large
shall be elected by the people and the
alternative proposition shall be on con-
tinuation of the ward system.
Commissioner William Mead gave
notice that he would call for a recon-
sfderation of the latter question be-
cause Commissioners F'ishburn, Hol-
lingsworth and Tufts were absent. He
thought their votes might alter the
commissions final decision.
The charter revision commission re-
sumed its discussion of the council
men problem, over which it has held
repeated debates, shortly after 8
o'clock.
Mr.. Mead stated a preference for the
combination system of .councilmen.
DR.. Haynes said he believed in coun-
cilmen at large, but recognizing that
large and positive body of citizens IA
vored the ward system he believed
these should have the opportunity of
voting for them. Inasmuch as he IA
vote for having both propositions on
the ballots.
Mesmer for Ward System
Mr.. Mesmer said he believed in the
ward system with districts to embrace
five councilmen at large. One ward
should be added, making fifteen wards.
There is no question about what
the people would do, as that which is
IN direct rnnrpSnnt1tin will
appeal to them most strongly" he
said. Ward representation fills this
want
Commissioner Finlayson laid before
his colleagues the bearing of the ques-
ton on the probability of its being
carried at the election.
I'VE had better consider the percen-
tage of the voters who will favor the
ward plan, the combined plan or the
straight at large
PLAN" said Attorney Finlayson.
1.-THE chances are those who favor
the ward plan will vote against the
charter unless they have an alternative
proposition. Though 1 oppose the
ward plan, recognize that many are
welded to the idea.
Policy or Expedienoy
personally 1 don't care a tinker's
if our plan does go down
in defeat, but perhaps we had better
consider the probabilities of the plan"
Judge Works said he would much
rather see a good charter defeated
than a bad or pernicious charter
adopted. Hence, he advised his col
leagues to do what they individually
believed in; then determine the best
proposition to insert in the charter and
later the alternative.
~ 90 ctofa6 his nngifinn be-
lieving that the voters were more con-
cerned in the initiative, referendum and
recall than in councilmen. He thought
he saw a covert attack on the recall
because in electing all councilmen at
large it would require nine times as
many signatures unless the percentage
We're changed.

TRIAL AGAINST SECOND
INDICTED MAN IS BEGUN

The second trial of men charged with
illegal registration in the Ocean Park
election was begun in Judge Conrey's
court yesterday morning.
The defendant is David ]. Lewis.
proprietor of the Davy Crockett saloon.
and it is claimed by Hartley Shaw and
G. Ray Horton, deputy district attor-
neys, prosecuting the cases, has re-
sided for more than a year at $50 San
Julian street and that he, bennett
Childs and r. F. Thompson registered
at the same time and for the same
room at the Decatur hotel in Ocean
Park at the time of their alleged reg
istration.
A jury was secured shortly after
o'clock and three witnesses were ex-
ahmed principally to establish the
fact that Ocean Park is a regularly
established voting precinct and that
Lewis registered in that precinct.
The trial was adjourned until $3.50
this morning. Judge Conrey yesterday
fixed the date for the second trial of
bennett Childs' for April 8.
