OIL BURNING TESTS
WILL BE COMPLETED
San Pedro Selected as Basis for oper-
atoms and Results Are Reported
as Most Satisfactory

SAN PEDRO, April 3.-Under orders
for a three days test cruise, the United
States cruiser Cheyenne, Capt Knapp,
will sail at a.. M tomorrow. The oil
burning test will be completed, after a
series of forced runs and cruises from
this port, during the coming ten days.
The results have been eminently sue
cessful, it having been demonstrated
that oil is far preferable, being cleaner
and more economical. Less men are
necessary in the fire room and the old
trouble of excessive heat and black
SCOT is done away with. The only diff
Guilty is that throughout the world
there are many coaling and few oil
stations.
San Pedro has been selected as the
basis of operations for the Cheyenne,
and when the other smaller fighters are
equipped with oil burners it is probable
they also will come in here for their
supplies
With the tanks of the Union oil here
connected with direct pipe line to the
Fullerton fields, any quantity of fuel
may be secured on short notice. War
rant Machinist F. f. Ingram has made
the prediction that in due time all
Uncle Sans fighting fleet, except the
battleships, will be equipped with oil
burners
The Cheyenne is so arranged that the
CRATES can be put in and coal used for
fuel on an hours notice, and the YES
sci carries, besides the oil necessary for
a nine days cruise, sufficient coal to
last an additional three days.

to Petition
Especial to The Herald

LONG BEACH, April Sat the same
time, admitting that as matter of
convenience and justice the annexa-
ton ought not to be made, Judge Will
lis in the superior court yesterday
handed down a decision in the case of
l.. Saunders, who brought suit against
the city of Belmont Heights to pre-
vent the calling of a proposed annexa-
ton election, the decision sustaining IN
full the demurrer made by City At
torney Knight to the temporary in
junction applied for by Saunders. This
was the second demurrer in the case
knight has had sustained. the com
plant involved having been amended
by the plaintiff.
The election in question was on a
proposition to annex to Belmont
Heights territory which would COM
pletely bottle up Long Beach. Belmont
trustees may take action Monday night
regarding the second calling of the
election.
Yesterday Judge Willis did not give
the plaintiff leave to amend his conf
plant again, ruling the time in which
the election could have been held under
the original proceedings had elapsed,
and that no practical purpose could be
subserved by allowing the complaint
to be amended.

SUES RAILROAD COMPANY
FOR DAMAGES; GETS $4,000
Man Who Claimed to Be Injured Per-
manentiy Secures Verdict from
Randsburg Line

SAN BERNARDINO, April 3.-The
jury in the suit of J. H. Thompson
versus the Randsburg railroad, in the
superior court, late yesterday after
noon returned a verdict giving the
plaintiff a judgment of $4,000.
Thompson, who lives in Los An
geles, claimed as a result of a collision
between an engine and the rear por-
ton of the train in which he was in,
he was permanently injured. Several
Santa Fe detectives were put on the
stand by the corporation in an effort
to prove that the plaintiff since his
injury had been employed as a ranch
hand and performed work which only
a very strong man could do. This was
refuted, however, on the testimony of
the aged plaintiff himself and several
prominent physicians.
On the first ballot the jury stood
eight to three against the plaintiff,
with the amounts of damages ranging
from $4,000 to $4,000. On the third bal
lot an agreement was reached which
gave Thompson $4,000.
The train in which Thompson was a
passenger, had been stalled on a grade
and the engine took all but the rear
three cars to the summit and while re-
turning for the remainder of the train
collided with it, throwing Thompson,
who was just about to take his seat,
to the forward end of the car, ser
iously injuring him.

CHAMBER
TO ERECT BUILDING
SAN BERNARDIN0 TO HAVE A
MAGNIFICENT STRUCTURE
Knights of Pythias to Build Home Adj
jacent to Business Mems Head
quarters--M ountain Boule-
ward Proposed

SAN BERNARDINO, April S.-The
chamber of commerce last night for
mally selected the northeast corner of
Fourth and streets as the site for its
three-story block.
Already nearly two-thirds of the nee
essary money with which to erect the
building and to purchase the ground
has been pledged by the business men
of San Bernardino, and no trouble is
anticipated in securing the remainder
of the sum required
The block, if erected as planned, will
have a frontage of fifty feet on Fourth
street and 100 feet on e street, the
ground to cost $4,000, and it is almost
a certainty the Knights of Pythias,
who have a committee in the field
working up plans for a building, which
they intend to put up, Will take the
next fifty feet on Fourth street and
construct a building uniform with the
one which the chamber of commerce
puts up.
If this is done the corner will have
probably the handsomest block in the
city, being 100 feet on Fourth and 120
on e street.
1t was planned at first by the cham
Der OF commerce to put up building
with $50 feet frontage on Fourth and
lzO on Il, pul lnlS Wouiu lnNolVe al eN-
penditure of $125000, and that body con-
sidered it too large proposition for
them to finance.
The total investment on the proposed
building will be approximately $780,
and it is the plan to form a building
corporation and sell enough stock to
raise at least half of that amount, and
then bond the property for the re-
mainder.
The chamber of cornmeree has in
dorsed proposition to have c street
constructed into a beautiful boulevard
extending from San Bernardino to the
Arrowhead hot springs. A committee
was appointed last night to confer with
the city council with a view to have
the name of this thoroughfare changed
to Arrowhead boulevard.
An effort will be made to get the city
council and the board of supervisors to
work with the chamber of commerce.
and 1t is hoped before long drive will
be constructed between the city and
the Arrowhead springs which will rival
anything in Southern California.
The proposed boulevard is the princi-
pal route used to the Arrowhead hotel
and the numerous mountain resorts
which are thronged with tourists dur
ing almost the entire year.
There is little doubt should this boule-
ward be constructed the owners of Pine
crest, Squirrel Inn and Skyland will
make an effort to continue it to the
summit of the range with one of the
most picturesque mountain roads in
Southern California.
Such a road as this would take tour
lists from the valley amid the bloom of
roses and orange blossoms up far above
the snow line to forests of pines, out
rivaling anything of it's kind in this
section of the state.

PASADENA, April S.-Coming to

BOTH PARTIES FEEL
CERTAIN OF VICTORY
FARLEY CHAIRMAN EXPECTS
GOOD MAJORITY
Waterhouse Manager Expresses Con-
fidence That People Will Indorse
Charges Made Against Ad-
ministration by His Side
Especial to The Herald

PASADENA, April S.-'You may
say for me that 1 believe that when
the votes are counted Monday night
you will find that Mayor Thomas
Farley has been reelected as a result
of his business administration by at
least 500 votes, and it would not sur
prise me if the figures were to reach
1000"
This is the statement of Council
man H. c. Hotaling, chairman of the
Farley campaign committee, and
man well Versed in the politics of the
town. He is not the only one who
seems certain of the mayors re-elec-
ton and vindication at the hands of
the people. There are many who be-
lieve that the slurs cast on the mayor
by some of the Waterhouse people,
and the suggestions that he acted in
some matters in a way to benefit one
particular class of people-the stock
holders in the different water COM
janieS-have done far more harm than
good to the Waterhouse cause.
Chairman Mark Weight of the Wa
terhouse party, however, is still con-
fident that the voters will seat his
man in the city hall, although per-
haps by narrow margin.
An enthusiastic Waterhouse meeting
was held in the Maccabee auditorium
this evening at which not only Mayor
Waterhouse and his councilmen can
didates talked, but a new speaker was
introduced in the person of TORY Ev-
erett. The speakers went over the
same old ground-the water question.
electric light plant and sewer farm
the last being specially cited as an
instance of the extravaganza of the
administration which has been in
power for the past two years. An
other claim made was that Pasadena
pays too much for it's legal advice,
considering the fact that it has had
on several occasions to call in outside
help at an additional expense in order
to get opinions on various topics.
Candidate Cox, on the councilmanic
ticket, is the man who is handling the
figures on this subject. He declares
they show that the city of San Fran
cisco with 100000 people gets it's legal
advice for $4,000 a year and that it
costs Pasadena $4,000. Thus San Fran
cisco pays cents and Pasadena 20
