FATHER PAYS FINES OF

Tended Themselves When
They Were Attacked

SAN DIMAS, Dec. 15.-ReV. e. F..
Walker appeared before Justice Barnes
of Pomona and paid the fines of $40
and IS which had been imposed upon
his sons, Stanlev and Phillip, who had
been charged with battery upon a
japanese laborer in the employ of R.

Dimas.
Mr.. Walker said his boys had entered
plea of guilty of technical assault
before their father could reach the Of
flee of the justice. Mr.. Walker de-
clared he had not refused to pay the
fines and had not said that his sons
were evidently guilty and deserved to
go to Jail.
According to the statement of the
Walker boys the elder one, who is 20
years of age, addressed a jocular re-
mark to the laborer, who stood at the
edge of a field as the lads drove by
who, it is said, afterward admitted he
had mistaken the boys for one who
had previously tormented him, instant
ly took umbrage and hurled a vile cpl
tibet at the youth. The words, which
were accompanied by an oath, were
such that every American stands ready
to fight when they are addressed to
him. The younger Walker proved no
exception to the rule and threw a
piece of brick at the oriental. Then a
fight ensued in which the Japanese
sought to pull the youth from the
wagon. In the mixup the Japanese
came out much the worse from col
lision with a brick.
The Rev. Mr.. Walker, who holds a
pastorate in Pasadena, says he does
not uphold the action of the elder
youth if he actually provoked the Jap
anese, but that he does not condemn
the lads for defending themselves and
the good name of their family.

TO CHARGE RAILROAD
COMPANY WITH COST
Especial 10 Tho Herald. !

SANTA MONICA, Dec. 15.-The city
today opened an account with the Los

perintendent of Streets Johnson receiv-
ing orders from the council to repair all
streets at the intersection of the rail-
road and charge same to the latter
Considerable controversy has de-
veloped between the city and the COM
pany, the officials of the latter threat
ening that if it is required to stop all
cars at all street crossings 1t will stop
all short line flyers at Pier avenue, thus
compelling persons from the north end
to transfer at Pier avenue or go to Los
Angeles by way Of Sawtelle.
The ordinance was all but passed at
the council meeting last evening, being
lost by a tie vote.
The railroad company today discon-
tinued the local cars which have been
running at half hour intervals from
Venice to SaWtelle, and confined them
to the city limits on the east and North
Beach station at this end.
This city officials claim, is in viola
ton of an agreement entered into when
the franchise was given to the company,
1t being stipulated that these cars
should run through as heretofore.
