IN WALL STREET
REPORT CHARLES MORSE HAS
RECOVERED LOSSES
Brokers Show Deep Interest in Tombs
Prisoner Who Daily Visits the
Stock Exchange on Bridge
of Sinhs


NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-Reports in
Wall street late today indicate that
Banker Charles W. Morse, former ice
king who is under sentence to sixteen
years Imprisonment for violation of
the federal banking laws, has made a
turn by which it is expected he will
pay off the obligations involved in his
recent sensational losses, which led to
his arrest and conviction.
There is no more interesting charac-
| ter in the street today than the former
lice king" and his daily appearance
at the stock exchange, which has been
the scene of many of his most strenu-
Gus financial battles, is an event which
attracts the attention of the most cal
| lous plungers.
Morse walks from the Tombs prison
over the Bridge of Sighs every morn
ing, guarded by a deputy marshal, and
transacts business in the street :nTolv-
ing millions
He may dine in restaurants, ride
about the city in an automobile and
attend directors meetings of the va
riouS corporations in which he is inter-
ested. The only requirement is that he
return to the Jail every night.
Morse's attorneys obtained an order
Of the United States court granting
these extraordinary privileges because
of the extensive nature of his financial
interests Soon after his conviction
Morse said he could entirely recoup his
stock exchange losses if given an op-
portunity, and he apparently is MAX
ing the best of the leniency of the
court in allowing him to visit the
financial district every day.

METAL FLOOR COLLAPSES;
ONE KILLED, ONE INJURED
Two Laborers Buried Under Debris
of Ruined City Hall in San
Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 23.-One
man lost his life and another probably
was fatally injured when a swaying
metal floor in the ruined city hall gave
way today, sending the two men to
the basement and precipitating upon
them tons of brick and debris.
j. Tisnerat, one of the workmen,
who was operating a block and tackle
on the west front of the building, was
so deeply buried that his body was
recovered only after twenty minutes
of frantic digging by a score of fellow
WOrkmen who themselves braved death
in the hope of finding him alive.
A. Ljain. his associate who was by
his side when the floor gave way, was
partly buried. He was crushed when
taken out and appeared to have sus-
tanned serious internal injuries.
A large force of policemen hurried to
the scene as soon as the accident was
reported and the entire Larkin street
block on which the city hall faces was
roped Off
The contractor had little knowledge
of the men who were buried. He ex-
pressed the fear that this entire wing
of the building had been weakened.

LEGISLATORS
WOULD REVAMP
CONSTITUTION
PARTY LEADERS DECLARE 1T
NEEDS CHANGING
FIND STATE CHARTER FAULTY
IN MANY SECTIONS
Presentation of Fifty-one Proposed
Amendments, Says Willis, Indi-
Gates Popular Demand for
New Regulation
CBy Associated Press.]

CN ACRAMENTO. Feb. 23-Several
leaders of both parties in the leg
~ islature expressed today the opin-
ion that there should be a convention
to revamp the constitution in many
particulars.
Senators Henry M. Willis of San
Bernardino, chairman of the judiciary
committee; Leroy A. Wright of San
Diego and Frank W. Leavitt of Oak
land, the two latter members of the
election laws committee, indicated dur
ing consideration of proposed amend
ments in their respective committees
this afternoon that they were in favor
of it.
Senator Willis tonight said: Fifty
one amendments to the constitution
have been proposed in the senate at
this session and | take this to mean
that there is a popular demand for
such a convention.
"The proper way to secure it would
be for the leading members of both
houses to get together and agree upon
a plan Of action. There is no doubt
that we need it, and am strongly IN
favor of it.
"Our state constitution was drafted
in 1879, at time when there was
great excitement over issues now
dead"
Republicans Favor 1t
Senator A. Caminetti. one of the
most active Democrats in the legisla-
ture, also said he believed there was
an under current of sentiment among
the Republicans of both houses for
such a movement.
His message submitting to a vote of
the people at a special election next
fall all the constitutional amendments
introduced at this session was dis
cussed by the election laws committee
and the opinion of several members
was that the amendment should oe
recommended for adoption if there
| appeared to be no likelihood of a con-
vention in the near future.
1t finally was decided, however, to
make an adverse report.
Another amendment by Senator Will
lis will be reported tomorrow without
iquest, as he desired to make his fight
on the floor and did not wish the COM
mittee to commit itself.
| This proposes to submit to the peo-
| pie change in the section relating 20
| charging of juries and appeals in GRIM
| inal cases. as follows:
| Judges shall not charge juries with
! respect to matters of fact, but may
state the testimony and declare the
| law. On appeal, however, in any GRIM
inal case the appellate court may con-
slider the evidence and if upon a re-
| view of the whole case it appears that
the verdict is just and that substan-
! tial justice has been done the appellate
court shall disregard technicalities AMI

BURGLAR SEIZED
WHILE ROBBING
JEWELRY STORE
BOLD ATTEMPT FRUSTRATED
BY DEPUTY SHERIFF
HUNDREDS PASS IN VIEW WHILE
HE HELPS HIMSELF
Police Believe He Is Clever Operator,
as Tools, Skeleton Keys, ChiseIs
and Jimmies Are Found
on Him
LT7 LILLIAN FAIRwEATHER,

W LILLIAN FAIRWEATHER, 2;
w years of age, a carpenter, was
arrested last night while in the
act of burglarizing the Crown jew
elry company store at Ais South
Spring street by Deputy Sheriff Roy
atty, who captured the man with the
aid of a revolver and held him until
the police officer on the beat arrived,
when he was conveyed to the county
Jail and placed in a cell on charge
of burglary.
The robbery was one of the most
daring which has been committed in
Los Angeles in months for the reason
that at the time the alleged robber
was at work filling Lis pockets with
valuable jewelry from the show cases
in the store hundreds of people were
passing back and forth on the street
in full view.
The job was one which is denom-
mated by the police as a 'hacksaw'
burglary, from the fact that Fair
weather carefully bored holes around
the lock in the rear door and when
that was finished sawed it out with
d keyhOle saw, cutting out a space of
six by eight inches. He then passed
his hand through the hole and shot
back two bolts, which also held the
door, and made his entrance.
store inspected
The store then was carefully inspect
ed by Fairweather with a fiashlight,
and he went from case to case inspect
ing the contents and making selections
of the most valuable stuff.
1t was while he was doing this that
Deputy Sheriff Royalty, who was pass
ing through the alleyWay in the rear of
the store, observed and stopped to
watch him. When the officer saw the
rObber taking goods from the show
cases and showing them into his pock-
cts, he tried the doorway and found it
had been opened. He then entered and
at the point Of his revolver compelled
FairWeather to throw up his hands.
Royalty then took his prisoner to the
rear of the store and held him there
under the point of the revolver until
he had blown his police whistle, which
called Patrolman Bonar to his assist
ance.
Fairweather then was hand
cuffed and searched and on his person
was found nearly $500 worth of watch
es, rings and other jewelry which he
had taken from the show cases.
The prisoner was taken to the county
jail and lodged in a cell on charge
of burglary.
In Fairweathers pockets. in addition
to the goods he had stolen from the
jewelry store, was found a bunch of
skeleton keys, several thin cold chisels
and 'jimmies,' and a brace and bit,
in addition to a small and compact
boring outfit, capable of going through
the hardest surface. He is believed,
despite his appearance as an honest
workingman, to be one of the most
expert burglars in the criminal calling
and his record will be looked up to-
day by Sheriff Hammel, with the as
siStance of Chief of Police Broadhead
and Captain of Detectives Flammer.
