WOODILL AS PEACEMAKER
SETTLES AUTO STRIFE
Restaurateur Black Unable to Control
His Own Curb Frontage, but
Buys Nearby Privi-
leqes

Police Commissioner HI. B. Woodill
has aided in settling the controversy
over the privileges of the hack and
auto stand located between the Del
Rev and Louvre restaurants on Spring
street by negotiating the successful
termination of the sale of the privi-
leges of the stand of Charles F. Hoff-
man in front of 31S South Spring
street.
Clarence ]. Black, owner of the Del
Rev restaurant, who also owns four
automobiles, missed attending the
meeting of the police board, where
auto privileges were granted under the
new traffic ordinance, and the space
in front of his restaurant was let to
two other parties jointly, one ply
scian and one a chauffeur.
Black realized that he should have
had an attorney in the first place, and
Trough Attorney Walter Haas tried
last Tuesday to induce the police
board to make some son of arrange
ment to grant him stand on Spring
street.
The board could not alter it's action,
as it was regular. Commissioners
Woodill explained that he was in
strumental in recommending that the
permit be granted, as it was not
known that Black was after the priv
ilege He offered, however. as a
friendly act to see if he could not in
duce some one else to sell. Both Hoff-
man and the joint owners at that time
had refused. Hoffman relented, how
ever.
The commissioners remarked yes
terday they were glad that this trou-
BILE had been settled, as the new traf-
fic ordinance put many responsibilities
on their shoulders in granting these
permits, some of which We're of great
value, since only six stands are al
lowed in one block.

HOTEL GUEST KILL
SELF IN APARTMENT
Chooses One of Three Ways to End
Life-Name Given Is Thought
to Have Been AS
sumed

After shaving his mustache, dressing
himself in a new suit of underwear and
securing a clean handkerchief, a man
supposed to be e. Pond lay in his bed
at the Hotel Lankershim early yester-
day morning and drank a quantity of
diluted cyanide of potassium.
On a chair at the side of his bed d
fully loaded .32 caliber revolver, d
razor and can OF cyanide of potas-
sium were found. 1t was evident that
Pond had decided to end his life and
chose from three methods.
Pond was not we'll known at the no.
tel. He engaged apartments there
March 10 and paid his rent one month
in advance. From the labels on his
baggage it is evident he had Travelled

1t. is thought at the hotel the name
''E Pond is fictitious. An inspection
of the dead mans clothing revealed
the fact that all marks of identifica-
tion had been obliterated.
The occupants of the room adjoin
ing the mans were awakened about
2:30 O'Clock yesterday morning by
groans. They notified the clerk, who
summoned several attendants and en-
tered the room. They found Pond in
his death struggles. A physician was
called, but the man died in few
minutes.
Pond did not mingle with the hotel
guests, and none of them were ac-
quainted with him.
: Before taking the poison he de-
stroyed ali letters and other documents
that might have revealed his Identity.
Coroner Hartwel1 was notified and
the body taken to the Sutch undertake
ing establishment.
Among his belongings were found a

a restaurant keeper, to release him
from a 500 fine imposed in police

TWO MURDER CASES
To Be Heard al Present Term Of
Superior Court.

The grand jury will have two cases
OF alleged murder in the first degree
to act upon In the present term OF
the superior court, the case against
Leonardo Samele and Demetrio Macs
ano. Samele is said to have inflicted
wounds upon a fellow countryman
named Summa in a row on Spring
street one night about Christmas
time. The disturbance began over
cards, as usual, in an Italian saloon
and Summa was stabbed under the
left shoulder by Samele, it is said. He
was taken to livery stable. and
given attendance by DR. M. j. Dona-
hue and after lingering a week or so
died from loss of blood. 1t was said
at the time of the hearing in the city
court that Summa stood in a door
way of the saloon with his left arm
outstretched, holding open the door
a revolver or knife in his right hand
and daring anyone to approach. 1t
was then, according to what evidence
was given, that Samele got UP behind
him and jabbed his knife under the
mans arm severing veins and AFTER
les and causing a flow Of blood that
could not be stopped, thus costing
him his life.
The other case happened in the
home of the accused on Mill street
one evening last summer. Guiseppi
VazZanni was collector for Macs
ano. His age was about 81 years.
Maesano was a kind of boss who took
1t upon himself to take up collections
for his countrymen in distress, or
trouble with the law. Vazzanni's
collections had been displeasing of
late and Maesano struck him it was
said about month before the MUIR
der. On the evening of the killing
there was a row in the house. Vaz-
zanni told Maesano to keep his place
and not to interfere with men or he
would lick him again. Maesano ask
ed Vazzanni If he meant what he had
said and being answered in the AFR
native Maesano returned to his room
and reappearing in minute shot
Vazzanni dead. Maesano Immediately
quit town and few weeks ago was
arrested in Scranton, Pa.
