DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
MANAGER AND COMPANY

The statement made that differences
had arisen between the Los Angeles
Motor Company's officers and X. j.
Leavitt. until Saturday manager of the
company, was found to be an error
made by another newspaper of this
citv. In an interview with an officer
of the Los Angeles Motor Car COM
pany Monday, the Herald representa-
tive was informed that there had ex-
listed no differences whatever between
the company and Leavitt. that he had
left the company of his own volition.
and the same cordial relations existed
between him and the company as had
always been the rule. If Mr.. Leavitt
had misunderstanding with the Loco
mobile company's home Office those
were his affairs. and the Los Angeles
Motor Car company had nothing to do
with them"
Col Leavitt could not be seen. but u
is understood that he has perfected
arrangements to remain in the field
of r1otordom and In which he has oc-
oupied wide field of popularity.

SACRED MONKEYS ARE NOT
SACRED TO SlMIAN AT zoo
Introduction of Three Specimens from
India Resented by Older. Resi-
dents at Bronx

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-Those of the
keepers of the monkey house in Bronx
geological garden who witnessed the
behavior of Patrick, known as the irish
monkey, when three sacred monkeys,
imported from India, were introduced
to him in his cage yesterday agree that
his conduct was due to nothing less
than his unfortunate intellectual con-
victions.
In the happy land of India the simple
natives protect a certain kind of ring
tailed monkey, which they keep in their
temples and bow down to. These are
the sacred monkeys. The crew of a
tramp steamship trapped three of these
sacred monkeys several months ago
while along the shores of india This
they did for the sake of the money they
knew they could get from the Bronx
Geological gardens.
DR.. w. Reed Blair kept the sacred
three under quarantine observation for
a time to see that they hadn't imported
anything but their religious convictions,
and yesterday they were placed in tne
cage where Patrick and several sacred
monkeys, who have taken up with his
ways of thinking. were disportins
themselves and eating peanuts. When
the strangers entered the backsliders
remembered the days of their youth
and innocence and stood aside respect
fIllly. Not so with Patrick There was
an instant's lull before the storm, and
in another moment Patrick was using
the three new arrivals as a triple mop
on the floor of the cage and digging at
them with his teeth and hands between
times for the sake of variety. John
Reilly and Frank Engleholm interfered
with the argument, and now Patrick
views the sacred three from afar, long

For weeks the police have been try

They were always lust behind the cul-

headquarters every day.
Some time ago the police figured it
out that boys were responsible for the
burglaries, but 1t was not until Police
man McNulty rounded up Bill Roach
yesterday and wrung a confession from
him that the right trail was struck.
Bill" is only years old, but has a
desperate reputation in his territory.
Didn't he climb to the top of the tallest
tree and rob a birds nest right in front

Knowing the character of the young

and succeeded in catching "BilP red

firemen had the appearance of as many
bakers after they had extinguished a
fire which caused damage estimated at
$4,000 in the one-story building at 304

precipitated into the sticky mass by
the collapse of roof on which he was

two youngsters who should, with Ut

the idea, for at different times scouts

But none of the inducements held out
has been been strong enough to cause
Jones to give up his amateur standing.
McGraW's offers as we'll as all the
others. have been turned down, but
there has always been an understand
ing between Jones and the Giants
manager that if ever Jones should de-
eide to go in for the professional game
it would be with the Giants.
Now that he is out of college and
must either give up baseball entirely
or satisfy himself with an occasional
game. the desire to play is so strong
with Jones that he has several times
recently been strongly tempted to give
in and wire the New York club for a
contract and transportation. He is
worked up to such a pitch that it is
now only question of time when he
will report. 1t is certain that he will
be with the Giants when they start on
