TO DEPUTYSHIP UNDER
STATE SUPT. ANDERSON

Robert WankOwsISi, cashier of the Los
Angeles Trust and Savings bank, and for
years q dominating influence In the Ma
tionaI Guard Of California, was yester-
day appointed by Alden Anderson, state
superintendent of banks, to tho position
of chief deputy.
Mr.. WankOwski confirmed his appoint
ment last night, and stated that he
would leave for San Francisco to enter
ON his new duties the first OF the year.
The position is purely an appointive one
and no formalitles are to be gone
through before taking up active work.
In order to accept his position under
Mr.. Anderson, Mr.. Wanwowski will be
forced to resign from his present occu-
patton. The bank with which he Is con-
nected but recently consolidated with
the Metropolitan Trust company. and is
one of the largest banking institutions

His acceptance of MIR. AndersOn's APP
pointment partially hinges on this, As
he states that unless he is allowed to re-
side In Los Angeles he will not retain

Another Statement Issued In Regard
to the Rapid Transit
Discussion

PASADENA, Dec. 2s.-The board OF trade
committee of nine. named by the committee
OF three to investigate the Pasadena Rapid
Transit company's project, met late this
afternoon in the office OF the chairman.
Judge G. A. Gibbs in the Boston building,
At this meeting was read a remarkable let
ter from Seward A. Simons who has been
under fire at the guns Of President Dobbins
of the Rapid Transit company, which left
the other members of the committee of
nine in doubt as to Simons intentions. He
put UP to the committee of three the ques-
tion whether he shall remain upon the com
mlttee of nine not. He was not present
to explain in detail just what he meant
and the letter was not acted upon. 1t
will probably be considered later by the
committee of three of which John McDon-
aid, Leo G. Mclaughlin and w. f. knight
are members.
The eight members of the committee of
nine who did not attend the meeting dis
cussed in general the scope which the in
vestigation shall take, and President Dob
bins OF the road was invited to aid In the
discussion lie very frankly answered all
questions put to him and the sentiment was
that the investigation should now go for

versy in regard TO the naming of the COM
nlittee of nine and particularly the placing
upon it of Seward \. Simons

formal statement in which he stated that he
finds nothing to retract in his previous
statements. In this document he calls at
tention to the remarkable attitude of Cen
eral Manager Mcmillan of the Pacific Elec-
trio, who Mr. Dobbins says, has "gone
quite outside of his province to take official
recognition of the condition existing in
Pasadena, without apparent reason and fly
ing to the aid of President OFF and Vice
President Knight of the board of trade.
Mr.. Dobbins asserts that his only motive
in the whole matter has been to get an in

Second Street Store

While responding TO a hurry call

looking person standing outside a
store at 121 East Second street, with a
number of bright looking objects In

rest a man said to have broken the
plate glass of the store at 121 East
First street and alleged to have stolen
a number of valuable coins.
At police headquarters the man gave
the name of William Jones and stated
that he had just arrived from New
York City and was living at the home
of the Volunteers of America. Investi-
cation by the police showed that Jones
is not the right name, for on the books

the name of ]. r. Joyce, occupying the
