MUNICIPAL AFfAIRS|REsE1tA:!||'||

AS soon as this ordinance was passed
the commission forced the adjustment
of the houses on the Utah street, Also
street, Seaton street and other smaller
courts to the. number of twelve. Inn
proven1ents were begun in other courts
and new conditions are rs per cent bet
ter than they were three years ago.
Sanitary and, in many instances, really
pretty little homes of two and three
rooms have taken the places Of the un-
slightly burlap tents and dry goods
box shacks. The Navarro street court
sprang into existence with the wiping
out of some OF the splague spots, and
It Is pointed to as an example Of what
can be done with little money. There
are seventeen ,two-room houses in this
court and. including plumbing, they
were all constructed for $4,000.
Encouraged by It's success the hous-
ing commission has asked the city
council to appropriate $4,000 for its use
during the present fiscal year. and al
though the city's finances are low 1t is
probable the commission will be given
this amount.
The members of the commission are
DR.. Titan Coffeys chairman: Miss Efiz-
abeth L. Kenny, secretary; Miss Mary
A. veeder, Rev. William Horace Day.
George e. Bergstress, Charles 7. Paul
and Charles L. Whipple.

PRESIDENT OF PALMS
WATER co. ARRESTED:
CHECK BAD, CHARGE
Carleton N. Gary, Attorney, Accused
by Jacoby Brothers Of Drawing
Against Closed Bank
Account

Carleton NJ Gary. attorney-at-law
with offices in the Security building
and president of The Palms Land. Light
and Water company, was arrested at
his home in Palms last night and
brought to Los Angeles by Detectives
Ritch and Roberds and booked at the
central station on the charge of hav-
ing passed a fictitious check.
The warrant on which he was ar
rested was sworn out by Isaac s.
Levitt, secretary OF Jacoby Bros. and
charges him with passing on that firm
a check for SIS drawn on the Bank of
Sawtelle which was returned to the
firm marked mo funds"
The check was passed at the Jacoby
Bros store several days ago and In the
due course of business came back from
the bank on which 1t was drawn.
Efforts were made last night by Mr..
Gary to secure a police judge or JUS
tice of the peace to fix bail in the case,
but up to late hour he was unable to
do so.
Gary formerly carried an account at
the Bank of Sawtelle, but 1t was stated
by the police last night that the ac-
count had been closed some time ago.
Mr.. Gary Is one OF the most prominent
residents of Palms and lives In beau
tiful home there, which is the show
place of that section. He has always
been regarded as a man of means.
He declined last night to make any
statement regarding the charge against
him and made every effort to keep the
information Of his arrest from being
made public.

Los ANGELES HEARD FROM AT
CONVENTION
Parish VIII Assist Cole In Handling
Democratic Campaign Funds--or-
aanlzIng All Precincts
In County

Delegates to the Democratic state
convention at Stockton, lured by the
attractions of San Francisco, tarried
longer In tho north than they INTENDED,
though party of the faithful returned
yesterday.
Los Angeles members report that the
convention was one in which most or
the work was done in the committees.
and though differences existed on some
points, 1t was harmonious session.
All are shouting for Bryan and they
say Bryan sentiment prevailed all
along the Pacific coast.
One of the important questions set
tied was with reference to the Demo-
cratic campaign funds. The financing
had in the past been left mainly to
Committeeman Nathan Cole, jr., but
the convention decided to add an adj
visory committee of three. The third
member named was 0. Il. Parish or
Los Angeles.
This week the Los Angeles county
committee will hold meeting to round
up all precinct committee appointments
and set the local campaign in imme-
diate operation.
The organization committee VIII en-
deavor to form clubs in every precinct
TO assure O widespread list OF party
workers-men on whom the committee
can count.
Chairman Albert M. Norton and Sec
rotary Irving Walker will on Monday
handle the accumulated correspondence
In order to have the decks free for the
committee meeting later.

MAKE HASTY TRIP
TO AQUEDUCT REGION
Members Board Of Public Works and
counclImen Inspect Rights Of
Way Obtained by the
City

Members of the board of public works.
with Codncilmen. wallace and Drom-
gold of the finance committee of the
council, Superintendent William Null
holland of the water department ana
City Engineer Homer Hamlin, left the
city hall early yesterday morning Tor
a hasty trip to the site of the new ce-
ment mill on the line of the aqueduct.
The fact that members of the finance
committee were taken along gave rise
tc rumors at the city hall that the pub
lie works board intends to ask for fur
Their appropriations from the council.
The seeming air of secrecy that
shrouded the trip was displeasing to
Mayor Harper.
'eThere is no longer any occasion for
holding aqueduct matters from the
public" said the mayor. 1.-THE work is
well on its way, the bonds are sold, and
everything done in aqueduct affairs
from now on should be open and above
board. There was reason, sometimes,
for shrouding the aQueduct work in the
deepest secrecy, when we were trying
to secure the land and arranging to sell
the bonds. There may be even now
times when it would be well to keep
matters quiet for a short time, such as
discussion of lawsuits and other af-
fairs when the person we are fighting
would benc-t by an open discussion of
our plans; but in the main all sessions
of the aqueduct board should be open
to representatives Of the newspapers
and the general public. No one ques-
lions the honesty or integrity of any
one who has charge of the Owens river
proposition, but am convinced it
would be to the best interests of all II
the board of public works would drop
this secrecy concerning it's move-
ments."
Councilman Wren OF the Third ward
was Of the same opinion.

VOTING MACHINES NOT
sERvicEA5LE THIS YEAR

Though city Auditor w. @. Mushet
is convinced that there are elections at
which voting machines can be used,
Secretary OF State Curry has just an
nounced that there is little probability
of their being used in California at the
coming election on account OF the many
constitutional amendments to be sub
mitted to voters.
Those machines owned In Los An
geles county cost $51,175 to the county
and $4,000 to the city. This cost will
exceed 100000 when storage, insurance
and interest charges are added.
They are not serviceable as now con-
structed when there is a multiplicity Of
tickets in the field, though declared en-
tirely practicable at minor elections.
Auditor Mushet intimates that be-
cause they throw many election officers
out of employment they are being an
faqonized, and he insists also that they
will be used on the first practicable
occasion.

GRAPPLES WITH
SLUM PROBLEM
REPORT FILED BY HOUSING
COMMITTEE
cITYs PLAGUE SPOTS BEING
GRADUALLY WIPED OUT
Sanitary Cottages Substituted for
Densely overcrowded shantles and
Tents Previously Occupied by
Mexican Population

In an exhaustive pamphlet report
the housing commission, one OF the
least advertised but most effective de-
partments Of the city government, tells
what 1t has done during the last two
years.
That slums ever existed In the fair
City of the Angels was a matter OF
much surprise to the average citizen
when Jacob A. Riis visited Los AM
geles about three years ago, and after
an investigation announced that the
slums here, while not so extensive as
in other cities of the same size, were
worse than could be found elsewhere.
When the housing commission was
first appointed three years ago by
Mayor McAleer it found q peculiar
condition to combat. On account of the
mild climate of Los Angeles the homes
of the inhabitants OF the underworld
were composed chiefly of tents made
of CASTOR burlap or wooden shacks
built out OF dry goods boxes. There
were few disreputable tenements. such
as cause a serious problem In large
cities of colder chimes.
These miserable homes were occu-
pied by Mexicans Of the lowest class,
and were virtually plague spots. The
Mexican leased small plot of ground,
Just big enough to hold his iitt,s one
or two room house, and paid ground
rental OF from 81 to 81 month. On
this ground he would erect his little
shack, doing the work himself.
These places are designated as
shouse tracts" and when the hous-
ing commissions inspector, Nicolas
Queirolo, started to work a year ago
he found sixty-eight tracts of land
within the city limits which could be
classified as "house courts" These
courts were occupied by from three to
sixty-eight miserable dwellings. He
found single rooms occupied In many
cases by eight persons, and three-room
dwellings, which would not make a
good sized living room In an ordinary
house, were the dwelling places OF fif-
teen persons. The housing commission
found that rentals averaged higher
than for better conditions, In the slums
OF New York. New York, however,
could not be used as a criterion be-
cause of the great difference in ell
mate. and the housing commission was
compelled to work out its own saliva
ton.
That it has done SO is shown by the
photographs printed In the report
These photographs ara Of the "before
and after taking type, and the kind
OF medicine doped out by the housing
commission seems to have been most
effective.
One of the nrst things the housing
commission did was to draw up an or
dinance concerning sanitary conditions.

! about. said Mr. Wren yesterday.

1t about" said Mr.. Wren yesterday:
This board is spending $2S,0oo,Oo0 OF
the peoples money In bringing the Ow-
ems river water to Los Angeles, and the
council, the peoples elected representa-
tives, have a right to know how this
money Is spent. While the board OF
public works has jurisdiction over the
spending of this money, the authority
of the board Ilust come from the coun-
ell, and as a consequence we are held
responsible"
The party returned from the aqueduct
late last evening, declaring there had
been no secrecy about its movements.
Superintendent Mulholland said the
trip was made simply to look over GER
tain rights of way that had been Sc
cured for the city. There was no Sc
cret about the journey. he said, the
party making the jaunt solely for the
purpose of looking over some of the
citys recently acquired rights.

PHYSICIAN RAVES
IN INSANE WARD
WOMAN DECLARES SHE WILL
FOOL THE DOCTORS
Sister In Illinois Notified but Refuses
to Come to Los neeIss--BeIIeved
Brooding Caused Mental
Breakdown

Raving madly that she Is being held
prisoner against her will and then
changing and with q look of shrewd-
ness informing attendants that she Is
just feigning insane In order to fool
the doctors" DR.. D. Frances Smith, the
woman physician who was taken to
the county hospital Friday after at
tempting to end her life with carbon
monoxide gas, is still detained in the
insane ward at the county institution
While the physicians in charge watch
her case closely.
Previous to her attempt DR.. Smith
telephoned to The Herald office notice
of her intention, and 1t was because of
this her life was saved.
DIR. Smiths Authorizations are pecu-
liar, but all yesterday the physicians
at the hospital watched, hoping for
some sign which would show the re-
turn of the wonderful brain power
which has marked the woman through
out her life.
During the early part of the day she
was mild, at times talking quietly to
the attendants and asking why she was
not taken to one of. the state asylums
for the Insane. In a moment she would
change and become violent, charging
the nurses with keeping her against
her will and threatening vengeance.
The next moment she would call the
nurse to her and whisper that she had
played a good joke on all of them and
that while they all thought she was in
sane she was in her right mind.
Woman Becomes Violent
Toward night she became SO violent
1t was necessary to give her sedative,
and she fell into doze.
1--WE hope DR.. Smith will be all right
by tomorrow" said DR.. Cahen, one of
the physicians at the hospital, last
night. "She has been violent several
hours and it was necessary for me-to
give her a sedative which has caused
her to sleep.
II think DR.. Smith has brooded over
fancied troubles until 1t has weakened
her mind, but I believe she will be all
right SOON"
Mrs. S. J. Kelley, proprietor of the
rooming house at 757 South Hope street,
where DR.. Smith lived, yesterday teie-
graphed Mrs. Harry Hanaford, who
lives at APO Liberty street, Chicago, and
who is sister of the physician. The
telegram informed Mrs. Hanaford of
DR.. Smiths illness and requested her to
come here. The following reply was re-
ceived:
MRS. s. ], Kelley-r believe it nerve
exhaustion. Let her rest. Can't come.
Mrs. Hanaford."
Last night word of DR.. Smiths ILL
ness was telegraphed DIR. Martin j.
Littlejohn, Masonic Temple, Chicago, a
former instructor/of DR.. Smith and one
of the best known physicians there. No
reply was received.
