Free Speech Agitation May Assume
Large roportions-More Arrests
and Arrangements Are
Scheduled for Today

John Merr, who runs harness man
utactory at 1911 Central avenue and
las lived in Los Angeles ten years, was
arrested at Seventh and Grand avenue
last night charged with speaking In
public without a permit from the board
Of police commissioners.
This makes the twenty-fourth arrest
since the campaign for free speech
was instituted by the Socialists and
others who declare they stand for the
principle of keeping the constructor
OF the United States inviolate.
There was no excitement when tne
officers came. The crowd was gooo-
natured one. Shouts of Free speech!
were heard all over the crowd.
After the arrest was made, or ac-
compIished, the crowd marched to Mer-
camille place, four or five hundred sing
ing the Marseillaise as they marched.

cases now on the docket would be en-
tered to the complaints. He was
answered in the affirmative.
1.-THE demurrers are overruled'" said
The court. 1.-THE cases may as well go

The defendants then pleaded not
guilty and asked for jury trials. The
cases were set for March "a and 20.
Chief Kern says the arrest of speak
ers will continue and says he will ar
range to have a squad of police on hand
at future meetings.
Socialists say this does not discour-

women have pledged themselves TO
speak on the streets until they are
allowed their rights under the state
and national constitution.

KINNEY AIDS
HARTMAN
Politicians Connected with Money
Kings interests Instructed to
Keep Clear of Coming
Election

VENICE, March 2.-This is a story
OF the man behind the ready money
and how he struck bargain during
the climax of the late financial pinch
with e. H. + arriman which has en-
listed that magnates powers in a
movement to make Venice of America
the greatest pleasure resort on the
Pacific coast.
The man behind the ready money
was Abbot Kinney, doge of Venice.
He had just little short of one million
dollars cash in his safety deposit vault
right at the time when ]. PierponL
Morgan came to the rescue of Wall
street by engineering an anti-panic deal
which dumped twenty-five millions into
the laps of panic-stricken borrowers
and saved the country from the most
stupendous financial crisis in history.
Hartman was desperately In need
of funds, according to the story which
is vouched for by a late head of the
Los Angeles-Pacific system. Attorneys
for the road in Los Angeles were scout
ing for ready cash, two millions, and
one of them, knowing of the Kinney
hoard for just such an opportunity,
went to the doge for Hartman loan.
Abbot Kinney's pet hobby is Venice
OF America. He has a long standing
grievance against the present city ad-
ministration and his heart is set on
having an entirely new deal after the
Ocean Park city election April 13 next
He wants to develop Venice, build the
palatial hotel cn Windward avenue, the
finest bath house on the coast on the
ocean 'front.' and have his tent city rid
"a threatening ordinances passed by a
hostile board of trustees.
According to The Herald's informant
E H. Hartman had never heard of
Venice of America. Developments of
the Los Angeles-Pacific system at this
end has been left entirely in the hands
cs Southern California lieutenants of
the Southern Pacific magnate. But he
needed Kinney's $9OO.00O
The interest terms were not un-
reasonable and Kinney merely asked
the Los Angeles Pacific to keep out
of the local election in April, Kinney
also told Harriman's agents Of his
Venetian plans. They were interested.
Hartman in turn became personally
interested. The word came from the
cast to keep out of the Ocean Park
election fight.
Kinney, it Is said, made request for
the immediate standardizing of the
Venice short line. The work is now
in hand and according to reports from
the railroad headquarters will be
rushed to completion in time for the
coming of the fleet to Santa Monica
bay in April next
1t is known positively that a city
official of Ocean Park, long a con-
fldential political man for the Los An
geles-P Pacific company. has received or
ders to keep hands off in the coming
city election. It is also reported here
that the same party has received a
quiet tip to make peace with the Abbot
Kinney people, and It will not surprise

SOUTHERN PACIFIC MAY YET
BUILD LINE FROM M0JAVE

Although Southern Pacific officials
have given no assurances that they will
reduce their bids for hauling freight
along the Owens valley aqueduct the
company is collecting quantities OF ties
and other material near Mojaye.
The company intends to build some
switches and sidings in that district,
but as the quantities assembled are
very large it is believed that they are
forerunners of actual construction work
on the proposed line from Mojave to
Keeler, near Owens lake. From Keeler
the company has line running along
side and east of the valley TO Keno
New.
The freight bids will be relet by the
aoueduct board If the figures are not
shaved, and the new Los Angeles
Owens valley line officials may be
given a chance to bid this time.
