LOW RATE STARTS
RAILROAD WAR
ACTION OF BURLINGTON IN MAX
ING SPECIAL RATES TO THE
A.-Y.-P. EXPOSITION STARTS
TROUBLE.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE Inter-
Ocean today prints the following
news article: "A warm fight among
western railroads over the rates to
the ka-Yukon-Pacific exposition,
which will be held at Seattle this
year, has been started by the Bur-
lington road, which has announced a
rate of $50 for the round trip from
Chicago.
The other roads had been waiting
for a general agreement to be made
among the lines of the transconti-
mental passenger association as to
what the rate should be. Although
there is no legal reason why the Bur-
lington should not act independently.
its action is entirely. contrary to the
rule it customarily takes.
''The slowness of the other roads
in reaching an agreement on the rate
caused us to issue the announce
ment,' said a representative of the
Burlington in explaining.
Representatives of other roads de-
clared that if the Burlington proposes
taking Independent action before
rate matters have been considered
by the association, it would mean a
serious break in the heretofore har-
-, or;ouc rolo{;opo avjcfipu ho+uaoD

Yonkin and Wallace Declare They
VIII Repeal Measure Unles7
Women Permit Men to Use
Reserved Space

After many trials and long delays
the ''smoke" ordinance was finally
passed by the city council yesterday
afternoon. 1t could not have been
passed had not Yonkin, who has con-
sistently opposed it, voted in favor OF
the ordinance.
But while voting for the ordinance
Yonkin held club in his other hand.
II want the men to have place to
sit down and smoke" he said. IF 1t
develops the women crowd onto the
back end of the street cars when this
portion is reserved for smokers and
occupy all the seats then 1 will be the
first to institute movement to repeal
the ordinance"
Wallace automatically declared he
would join Yonkin for the repeal of
the ordinance if matters came to such
a pass. Five votes would have been
sufficient to pass the measure, as it
did not carry money appropriation
but there were six votes in its favor.
Lyon could no longer resist the ap-
peals of the women and voted with
Yonkin.f Only Wren, Clampitt and
Healy voted against the ordinance, and
they have been consistently opposed
to it from the first.
There was little argument over the
matter, as about all that could be said
has been said in the past. Rev. DR..
C. e. Locke. pastor of the First Meth
odist church. spoke in its favor, and
so did Councilman Wallace and Coun-
Gilman Clampitt had a few words to
say against it.

FIRE APPARATUS BIDS
OPENING is DELAYED
MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL
WISH TO INVESTIGATE
Demonstration Of Appliances Which
City Wishes to Purchase Will
Be Given This Morning
on Spring Street

Six bids were received by the council
yesterday for fire alarm apparatus, but
the bids were not opened. Opening of
the proposals was postponed to Thurs
day morning at 10 o'clock, when the
council will met. This action was
taken on the advice of City Auditor
Mushet.
This morning at 10 o'clock the coun-
Gil is to be present at a demonstration
to be given In the old Phillips block
on North Spring street of the appara-
tus on which the bidders have sub
mitted proposals. This will be one of
the biggest demonstrations Of its kind
in the world. It has drawn makers of
such apparatus from all over the United
States and from Germany. On the
basis of this demonstration the council
will form its idea of what apparatus it
wants, and this will influence the
award of the contract when the bids
are opened. The city auditor told the
council if the bids were opened before
the demonstration took place the minds
of the councilmen would be Influenced
apparatus itself, and he did not believe
1t a good plan to open the bids.
H. ]. Goudge, attorney for the Came
we'll Fire Alarm company, which has
submitted a bid, objected to delay in
opening the proposals. He said that it
would be easy for one of the interested
persons to secure the envelope in which
his bid was concealed and substitute
another one, If he was so disposed,
and he called attention to the fact that
things of this kind had been done.
In order to meet Mr.. Goudge's OBJ
jections the bids were all sealed in a
large envelope, and Minute Clerk Car
roll said with a determination that
showed he meant it: 'I'll gamble no
one disturbs these bids until they are
opened before the council"

ELECTION OFFICIALS TO
BE PAID SIS FOR WORK
Men Who Act November 10 Probably
Will Be Given $15 for Their
Services

Although yesterdays election was
one of the easiest on the election Of
ficials ever held in Los Angeles the
council fixed the pay for election Of
ficials at $5 each. Councilman Healy
wanted to make it Sc for the day and
made a motion to that effect, but the
remainder of the council would not
stand for it. Wallace wanted 1t re-
duced to $4.
1t is probable a much larger amount
will be given the election officials for
their work at the primary election
November 10, as it is said that will be
the hardest work any election official
has ever done in Los Angeles.
There are 152 candidates to be voted
on and it is probable that one of the
heaviest votes ever cast in Los An
geles will be recorded. The most san
guine do not expect the vote to be
counted inside of twenty-four hours,
and this will be three working days of
eight hours each. 1t is probable the
election officials will be given SIS each
for this election.
The council yesterday instructed the
city clerk to publish the names of the
1852 candidates in The Herald, Times,
Examiner, Express, Record and San
Pedro News for five consecutive days,
as required by law.

spent most of her meager savings for
medical attention for him.
When he became desperately i'll more
that a week ago it was decided to re-
move him to the home of a friend in
Boyle Heights where he could obtain
better attention.
Each day Mrs. Padovany would leave
her home in the afternoon and stay
with her son until late at night Dur
ing this time she was hard pressed for
money and exhibited the jewels to
friends and neighbors, asking them to
make an effort to find purchaser for
some of the rare old rings.
She last saw the Jewels several days
ago when she exhibited them to a
neighbor after her son died. Monday
when she returned from the funeral of
her only son she sought the jewel
casket to select several rings which
she wished to dispose of in order to
realize enough money to defray the
funeral expenses. She found the drawer
open and the casket missing.
''I made a thorough examination of
the house." said Mrs. Padovany, but
was unable to find any trace of the
manner in which the burglar entered
my home. There are no screens or
locks to the front windows, and it is
probable that some person familiar

Mrs. Padovany is unable to give a
definite description of the Jewels, but
stated that some of the rings were set
with diamonds of more than a carat
and that the valuation of $4,000 on the
entire lot is low one.
The matter was reported to the police
yesterday morning, but so far the de-
tectives have not obtained any clew as
to the identity of the thief

WOMAN MATTRESSES MAY
SERVE LIQUORS IN CAFES
Ordinance Forblddlng Girls to. De-
liver IntoxIcants Repealed by
Members Of City Council

The pathetic plea of Miss Clara
Clithero, who admitted she was 50
years old, but did not look 1t, touched
the hearts of the members of the
council yesterday and they instructed
City Attorney Hewitt to bring down an
ordinance Thursday repeating the or
dinance passed last week forolddlng
women to serve liquors in restaurants.
Miss Clithero declared number or
the mattresses at the Hollenbeck, the
Lankershim, the Westminster and 9TH
er high-class restaurants were in dam
ger of losing their positions, and some
of them already had been discharged
on account of this ordinance.
The ordinance was passed on the
recommendation of City Prosecutor
Eddie and was designed to reach just
one place in the city where mattresses
were going into the bar attached to
the restaurant and getting liquors from
there to serve at the tables. Since the
ordinance was passed the restaurant
permit of this place has been revoked

MOST BIDS FOR FIRE HOSE
AND APPARATUS REJECTED
Council Buys Only Fourth Size En-
cine and Auto Combination
Wagon

All bids for fire hose and for fire ap-
paratus other than the fourth size fire
engine and the automobile combination
chemical and hose wagon were reject
ed by the city council yesterday. The
Ahrens fire engine and the Seagrave
automobile apparatus were ordered
purchased.
The bids for hose were rejected on
the recommendation of Councilman
Wren, chairman of the supply com
mittee. Mr.. Wren said that the speci-
fications were faulty in that while they
provided for go per cent pure rubber
the other 40 per cent that composes the
hose is not provided for. The question
of what pure rubber is also entered
into the matter, as there are a number
Of different grades OF rubber, all of
which are pure.
Faulty specifications were also given
as the reason for rejecting bids for the
city service truck and a hose wagon
that proposals had been secured for.

VIZ EEPING bitterly after attending
wv the funeral of her son, Mrs. F.
" L. Padovany, 6S years old, of
1874 Wall street, returned to her home
to find that her family heirlooms, con-
sisting of diamond rings and pins, val
ued at $4,000, had been stolen from a
hiding place in the drawer of an old
machine.
The loss was a double one for the
aged Spanish woman, as she intended
to sell some of the jewels to pay for
the funeral expenses of her only son.
Mrs. Padovany, who was once a
celebrated beauty in Mexico and of a
prominent family in the southern re-
public is the victim of misfortune in
many ways. Last May her husband,
who once was a man of Importance in
Mexico and who served in the Mexican
army, died. In some manner the valu-
able property belonging to him in MeXi-
co had been wasted away and after
his death the widow found that all left
her were several small houses in the
southern republic, a house and lot in
this city and sixteen diamond Jewels
heirlooms of priceless value to the
family.
Mrs. Padovany, with the assistance
of her son. paid the debts against her
property and settled the funeral ex-
penses of her husband. In order to
do so, however, 1t was necessary for
her to part with several rare paint
ings which her husband had purchased
in Europe.

ovany has been living on the small
income she received from the rental
of her houses. Several months ago

ALL NIGHT AND DAY BANK
SHOWS REMARKABLE GAINS
Indications Are That $1,o0ooo0 Mark
Will Be Reached This
Year

The All Night and Day Bank is out
with the statement of it's first nine
months of business, which makes a
remarkable showing of growth.
In nine months it's it's deposits have
grown to $682,293.10.
1t shows $3.50 commercial depositors
and 3699 savings depositors.
The officials have set their mark for
the end of the first year at $1,000,000
of deposits. Judging from the first
nine months of the banks career it
would appear that it should be reached
without difficulty.
The bank has opened an average of
forty-one new accounts daily since IT
began business.
One OF the most reassuring things
in the report, from the depositor'
standpoint, is the showing of 47h per
cent cash reserve on hand.
The stockholders of the bank pro-
pose to increase its capital stock to
100000 about January l.
1t is very evident from the record
made by the All Night and Day bank
that it has filled a long-felt want in
financial circles.

is GIVEN MORE TIME TO
PREPARE HARB0R BONDS
City Attorney Hewitt Believes Legal
ity Will Be Assured After New
Territory Annexed

AS the new territory for which the
annexation election was held yesterday
cannot formally become a part of Los
Angeles until after the council can
vases the vote next week. the council
yesterday gave City Attorney Hewitt
more time to prepare his resolutions
for the harbor and power bonds.
These resolutions were to have been
passed by the council yesterday, but
the city attorney believes that by de-
laying the matter until the new terri
tory is actually part of Los Angeles
there will be no legal question as to
the new addition bearing its share of
the taxation on the bonds.
