TRAIL THROUGH GRIFFITH
PARK MAY BE IMPROVED
Mayor Appoints Committee to Take
Up the Matter, and Chain Gang
May Be Utilized to
Do Work

Although the park commissions of
previous administrations have had the
inclination to improve the trail through
Griffith park to Mount Hollywood they
never have had the necessary money
and it may remain for the present
park commission to do the work
A step in that direction was taken
yesterday at the meeting of the park
commission when the mayor appointed
Commissioners Humphreys and Rush
ton a committee to take up the mat
ter.
1t is proposed to do the work with
the assistance of the chain gang and
possibly some financial assistance from
residents of Hollywood. When the
matter was up before a previous COM
mission Hollywood citizens declared
they would take up a subscription to
assist in the work.
The matter was brought up yester-
day by a letter from W. H. Hoegee of
East Hollywood, asking that the work
be done. He declared Vermont ave
nue., leading into Vermont canyon, was
almost impossible and that a woman
on horseback had been injured by
running into the single barbed wire
fence the city maintains around the
park.
Superintendent Morley declares there
will be some difficulty in opening the
trail through Vermont canyon because
the water rushes down there at a ter
rifle rate and in enormous quantities.
If the trail is built through this can
yon the road must be rip-rapped. He
believes other partially made trails
offer better basis for road

EARTHQUAKES EXTEND INTO

Lembach, Saxony, Believed to Have
Been Center of Disturbance.
Little Damage Done, so
Far as Reported
by Associated Press.1

ROME, Jan. ia slight earthquake
shock was experienced early this
morning throughout Lombardy, Vene-
tia and Tuscany.
No damage was done and no one
was injured, but owing to the general
uneasiness resulting from the recent
visitations in CaIabria and Sicily the
people for a moment were thrown into
a condition bordering on panic.
According to the records of the OBJ
servatories and especially the estab-
lishment maintained at Florence by
the Jesuit fathers, the center Of the
disturbance was near Lembach, Sax
ony.
The quake was strongest in Italy at
Treviso, sixteen miles north Of Venice,
REESE, birthplace of the present pope,
is located in this territory.
Later reports from Lombardy and
Tuscany describe the panic caused by
this mornings earthquakes, which, ac-
cording to certain reports, were re-
peated with slightly diminished
strength at 10 o'clock. Everywhere
people rushed out screaming Earth
Quake!''
Two women died of fright at b.
logna. There were no other victims.
The damage was limited to broken
windows, cracked cornices, etc.
The Italian government has agreed
that the American consulate at Mes
sina be removed to Catania, according

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Senators
who have given consideration to the de-
mand made by Senator Tillman for an
investigation by the senate Of the
charges made by President Roosevelt
in connection with the senator's at
tempt to procure Oregon lands incline
to the opinion that there is no question
before the senate for an inquiry except
as to whether Mr.. Tillman was frank
with his colleagues in discussing the
case.
The opinion is held generally that
even If the charges made by the presi-
dent were true, the act of Mr.. Tillman
was not a violation of law. No mem
Der of the committee on privileges and
luton calling for one, and if one is in
troduced it is likely that Senator Till
man will be the author.
His friends, however, are determined
to advise him against insistence on his
request for an inquiry.
Today Senator Tillman called Attor-
ney General Bonaparte on the telephone
and asked him whether he had brought
suit against the Southern Oregon COM
pany which holds land grants for mill
tary roads from Roseburg to Coos Bay.
This is the land comprising over
1900, 600 acres of which Senator Tillman
at one time contemplated purchasing,
at $3.50 per acre, about 140O acres for
himself, members Of his family and
others.
The attorney general was not able to
answer offhand whether or not suit
had been brought against the company,
and Mr.. Tillman asked him if he could
not at once call up some clerk and as
certain what had been done in the case.
After some delay the attorney gen
eral replied that he would send Mr..
TilIman q note on the subject.

AWARDS CONTRACT
THEN RESCINDS 1T
PatiIlo Company Figures on Different
Basis Than the Barber Concern,
and Threatens to Seek
Injunction

On account Of a legal fight threat
ened by the PatilIo Contracting COM
pany the board Of public works yes
terday passed a resolution rejecting all
bids received for the pavement Of Sun
set boulevard from Marion street to
the western city limits.
This is one of the biggest improve
ments proposed for Los Angeles in
many months. 1t involves an expen-
diture Of nearly $183,OOO, as shown by
the bids submitted, and contractors
are eager to get the work.
There was a difference Of only S54
in the bids submitted by the Barber
Asphalt company and the Patillo Con-
tracing company and the board yes
terday awarded the contract to the
Barber company
AS soon as this was done the Patillo
concern threatened to ask for an in
junction, declaring there were tech
nicalities in the specifications which
would prove the Patillo company ac-
tually was the lowest bidder, although
the figures computed by the city en-
gineer showed the slight margin in
favor of the Barber company
The Los Angeles-Pacif1c Railway
company has recently widened its
tracks on Sunset boulevard from a
narrow to a broad gauge. The law
requires q railway company shall pave
it's own right Of way and for two feet
on both sides Of it's tracks.
The delicate point involved is wheth-
err it is required to pave two feet on
both sides of the narrow or the broad
gauge. One bidder figured on the mar
row gauge track and the other on the
broad gauge.
Another little point is the question
of culvert to be built under the Los
Angeles-Pacific railway. The Patillo
company had figured this culvert in
it's bid, approximately at $50. The
Barber concern did not include this
culvert, as it was not contained in the
ordinance of intention. 1t is the pur-
pose Of the board of public works to
force the railway to pay for this Gull
vert, but some legal difficulties may
make this impossible.
Because the bids were so nearly
equal both companies being respon-
sible and injunction proceedings
threatened which might delay the work
indefinitely the board concluded to
DESCEND it's action and to reject all
bids. The city attorney was called
into conference and he framed a reso-
luton which was adopted by the board.
Bids again will be asked, but as it
is seldom two companies are so close
together in their figures it is improb-
able similar trouble will occur.
