GUN PLAY FOLLOWS
ROW OF PLASTERERS
Elijah Stiles of 2712 Hyans Street Is
Taken to Police Station on Charge
of Trying to Shoot E.
Shambary

The alleged efforts of a plaster con-
tractor to induce patrons Of another to
change business places resulted last
night in an Intellectual attempt on the
life of E. Shambary by Elijah Stiles,
both negroes. Stiles was locked up at
police headquarters, charged with an
assault with attempt to murder. AL
though but few feet from his busi-
ness competitor, Stiles aim was poor,
and the shot fired went wide of the
mark.
Shambary stated at police headquar-
ters that stiles came to his place Of
business last night and accused him of
trying to steal his patronage Sham
barry stated that he told Stiles he did
not wish to have any trouble, and Of
fered to drive Stiles to the latters s
home.
While driving, it is alleged, Stiles
pulled a gun and threatened to shoot
Shambary. Shambary quieted him, and
the argument was apparently closed.
When Stiles left the wagon at his home,
PIP Hyans street, it is said, he drew d
revolver and shot at Shambary, but his
aim was poor. He then entered his
home and was arrested a short time
later.
1t is said that Stiles had been drink
ing and was respondent because his
business was poor. Shambary lives at
349 woodward street and is a we'll
known member of the Methodist colored
church.

BIG MARKET OPEN
IN MINING FIELD
CHANCES FOR LOS ANGELES
MERCHANTS SEEN
George R. Hay Declares That Western
Arizona and Eastern California
Offer a Splendid
Field

George R. Hay, a mining man who
has spent the past two years in the
Colorado river country of Arizona, is
in Los Angeles and declares that the
region around Parker, on the A. & C.
cutoff, is opening up large mineral
lied area, which contains several
proved mines and countless good pros
poets, and that the Arizona side of
the river has developed some wonder
full copper mines.
Mr. Hays opinion is unbiased mas
much as he has no interests in that
section, which he says must seek this
market for it's machinery and sup
plies. He expressed surprise that Los
Angeles, which is his home, has not
evinced a greater interest and gained
more knowledge of the possibilities of
that section of the country, which has
mines and prospects on the California
side of the river as well as the larger
and better developed mines on the
Arizona side.
Mr.. Hay also spoke of the Parker
Indian reservation, which is to be
opened for settlement and irrigated by
the government. He says there are
several thousand acres Of rich land
which will come under the big ditch
and which will produce almost any
thing that can be raised in this section
of the country.
May Rival jerome
There is a copper belt extending
from the Whipple mountains, in Cal
ifernia, across the Colorado river into
Arizona, which I believe will rival the
extensive ore deposits of Jerome" said
Mr.. Hay. "This belt has been more
fully developed on the Arizona side or
the river and there are several pro-
ducing mines there. The Colorado will
furnish all the power needed for the
operation of reduction works and the
oil fields of California can supply the
fuel which has a water haul all the
way from the coast termini of the pipe
lines of the Bakersfield and Kern river
fields. There is practically no limit TO
the ore already developed, with many
splendid prospects being shaped into
producers"
New Road Projected
Mr.. Hay is developing a gold property
in the Chimehuevias district, fifteen
miles south of Franconia on the Santa
Fe. and says there is talk of road
from Parker to Yucca, which, If built.
will divert the ores of the Gold Roads
and Kingman country to the river
The projected line would tap hlghly
mineralized country and would afford
Transportation to several developed
mines. among which he mentions the
McCrackin silver-lead producer, forty
miles south of Yucca.
The Chimehuevias district is small
and but two companies are operating
there. The surface deposits are of
high grade, attracting the attention or
''chloriders." but the sulphide ores are
base. and for that reason the district
has been neglected. The ores carry
gold. silver and lead, with a small
percentage of zinc.
Mr.. Hay expresses the belief that the
western part of Arizona and the east
ern part of California will receive
great deal of attention from mining
men in the near future, and predicts
that it will develop many good mines.

RECONCILED AFTER
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE
PATHETIC REUNION OCCURS
AT RECEIVING HOSPITAL
Thomas Sands, Wife and Baby United
After Four Months Estrange-
ment When Woman SwaI-
lows Iodine

A woman's vain attempt at suicide
and the plaintiVe cries of her four
year old daughter were responsible,
last night, for the reconciliation of
Thomas Sands and his wife, Marie,
after a separation of four months.
The reunion took place in the re-
ceiVing hospital at central police sta
ton, after the police surgeons had
announced Mrs. Sands was in no dan
ger, and was told that she could go to
her home.
IT have no home now" replied the
woman and this statement brought out
the story of a trivial quarrel, a sep
aration and the reason of the woman S
attempt to end her life.
Thomas Sands is a teaming con-
and four months ago quarreled with his
wife, the result being a separation, the
wife going to the home Of relatives
with the four-year old baby.
Last night Mrs Sands, decided that
she could no longer support the girl
and, purchasing a two-ounce vial of
tincture of iodine, she went to the
home of her husband with the inten-
tion of leaving her daughter in his
care and committing suicide.
AS she approached the house OF
Sands she asked him to care for the
baby and then hurriedly entered the
house. Sands, becoming suspicious
followed her and was just in time to
knock the bottle from her hand, before
she was able to drink much of the
contents.
Sands attempted to get a doctor but
was unable to locate one by telephone
and ent word to the police headquar-
ters that his wife had attempted sui
eide. Husband, wife and baby were
taken to police headquarters and al
the receiving hospital it was found
that the timely action of Mr.. Sands
had prevented a possible suicide.
While the police surgeons were
working on the woman. the baby gir
kept up a cry for Papa" 1t was
suggested that the couple forget thei'
differences and. as Mrs. Sands was
repentant for her act, a reconciliation
was effected. The police SURGEONS
left the room and a few minutes Ia,
ter Mr.. Sands announced that all hac
been settled and, carrying the papS
with one arm linked in that or nj
wife, he left the hospital, the trio ap
parently happy.

CHINESE TONGS IN
ARMS OVER POLICE
CLAIM FAV0RS EXTENDED TO
FRIENDS"
Fantan Games and Opium Joints Ale
lowed to Run Because of "Con-
cessions" of Member of
Company

The tongs in Chinatown are up in
arms, and the reason is because the
members of the Hop Sing and Bing on
tongs are at variance over the favors
said to be shown to the two tongs
favored by the police.
1t is claimed that one of the men,
bers of the Chinatown squad of police
is a member of the Hop Sing tong and
that whenever he can show a favor to
the tong to which he belongs he will
do so.
1t is said there are more than fifty
fantan games going on in Chinatown
and that the police pay no attention to
these alleged open violations of the law
When two years ago there were 5000
Chinese in Chinatown there were but
two policemen in the district, but now
when there are but 800 Chinese at the
most there are ten plain clothes men
and a sergeant, in addition to the many
officers in uniform who patrol that
beat The district is but few blocks
and yet the two or three blocks are
herded with police.
Wah Sing. one of the most intelli-
gent Chinese in the district and one
who believes in conformity with the
law, says that gambling is apparently
protected by the powers that be, but
that he cannot tell or give evidence
against any of the players, as the
Chinese, he says, are the hardest peo-
pie in the world to capture at any
thing that is crooked.
Wah Sing says the whole trouble
lies with the fact that when Kern and
Broadhead were chiefs of police they
sent down an extra number of detec
tives and that these officers just lay
around Chinatown and mostly read
books and papers during their hours
of service.
What we want" says Wah Sing,
"is enough officers to see that there is
nothing in violation of law going on
in Chinatown. We respect the admin
istration and we know that we have got
to do right, but when the police allow
certain Of our race to run fantan
games and opium joints and make no
arrests, as the records will show, We
feel those who are disposed to what is
right are being Disseminated against.
IAN we ask Is that the police cut out
the extra number of men in plain
clothes and we will guarantee that
there will be no use for officers in our
district, for just as soon as the Chi
nese who can receive favors from po-
licemen find they must conform to the
law there will be nothing doing.
