CALLS FIREMEN HEROES;
SAYS EQUIPMENT POOR

Battalion Chief John G. Todd made a
report to the fire commission yesterday
morning on the fire at Third street and
Wilton place last Saturday night, in
which he described the bravery of the
fremen who did their best to conquer
the flames with no facilities and
pointed out the need of fire hydrants
and alarm boxes in that portion of the
city. Three houses were destroyed at
a loss of $4,000 because there was no
fire hydrant nearer than thirteen
blocks and no line of hose in the de-
partment could reach that far. There
is no alarm box nearer than twenty
five blocks and the alarm was sent in
by telephone.
The firemen had to do the best they
could with garden hose and by forming
bucket brigades. Battalion Chief Todd
spoke especially of the bravery of Cap
tain Bruflat of engine company No. 49,,
who worked with a garbage can on his
head as a protection against the heat,
and of Lieutenant Young of the same
company and Police officer w. c..
Schrader, formerly member of the
fire department, who worked on the
roofs of the buildings with no protec-
tion from the heat.

MAYOR TELLS CHINESE NO
GAMBL ING IS ALLOWED

Mayor Alexander yesterday disa-
bused the minds of number of Chi
nese of the impression that gambling
may be resumed in Chinatown.
Some one, whose name the mayor
will not divulge, has been circulating
the rumor that the administration
would permit gambling in Chinatown
again If the gamblers would pay him
$100 month.
The mayors Scotch was stirred to
it's roots when he learned of this ru-
NOR yesterday and, accompanied by
Chief Galloway, Sidney Reeves as
sistant city prosecutor, and Police
Commissioner John Topham, went tC
Chinatown yesterday afternoon, where
about 100 of the most prominent Chi
nese had assembled.
The mayor told them that gambling
would not be tolerated.

EVIDENCE PRESENTED IN
CRIMINAL LIBEL SUIT
Testimony Is Being Taken in a Case
Brought Against State Sena-
tor Savage

Evidence is being presented to jury
in Police Judge Roses court in the
criminal libel case of T. e. Gibbon
against state Senator w. H. Savage.
The jury to try the case was completed
late yesterday afternoon. The libel
complaint was issued last May, and the
charge concerns utterances of Savage
in the state senate at Sacramento Feb
ruary IS, 1909. Savage's- speech was
published in the journal of the senate,
and when copies of the journal were
received here through the medium OF
the mail Savage was accused.
Samuel Travers Glover, publisher and
editor of the Graphic, and T. w. Rob
inson, librarian at the Los Angeles
county law library, testified they had
received in their mail copies of the
senate journal which contained Saw
ages speech. Attorney A. M. Norton,
called to the witness stand by Attorney
e. J. Fleming, who is a special prose-
cutor in the case, said he was in at
tendance at the session OF the senate
before which Senator Savage gave ut
terance to the alleged libel.
Many objections to the testimony OF
these witnesses were interposed by the
three attorneys defending Savage, but
they were swept aside in most instances
by the magistrate. The taking of evil
dence will be resumed this morning.

LIPS SPANKED
TWICE IN DAY
FIRE COMMISSION AND MAYOR
REPRIMAND CHIEF
Absence and Attends Prize
Fight, According to
Alexander

Walter Lips, chief of the fire depart
ment, was verbally spanked" by the
fire commission at its meeting yester-
day morning, and then to make it
pleasant for the chief he was privately
spanked by Mayor Alexander
Commissioner Hawley brought up the
matter of the Creiger fire alarm sys-
tenn and criticised Lips and f. w.
FrankhouSer, superintendent of the bu-
reau of police and fire alarm, for not
doing more to assist in having the
system installed. He characterized the
attitude of Lips and FranhouSer as
"masterly inactivity"
1t is well known that neither Lips
nor Frankhouser has any particular
use for the Creiger system. Both are
strong advocates of the existing Came
well system and do not want the city
to install any other.
Lips declared the entire matter was
up to the council, and he had nothing
to do with 1t, but Commissioner HaW-
ley and other members of the commits
sion considered that Chief Lips might
assist in fastening matters If he chose.
The commission directed Secretary
McKeag to notify the council that the
commission is being severely criticised
for failure to install more fire alarm
boxes in districts where they are
needed and urge the council to take
immediate action to install the Creiger
boxes.
The little interview between the
mayor and Chief Lips was on an en-
tirely different matter. A few days
ago Lips secured the mayors consent
to take three days off and go north to
attend to some private business. Lips
had himself appointed a deputy sheriff
and took a prisoner to San Quentin
and then went to San Francisco, where
he attended the Nelson-W Wolgast fight
The mayor considered this a breach
of faith and told Chief Lips SO most
emphatiCallY.

AUTO ACCIDENT
TRIAL DELAYED
WITNESS TO FATALITY MAKES
CONFLICTING STATEMENTS
His Description of Movements of TWO
Cars Does Not Agre with the
Statement Made at
Inquest

The conflicting statements of Justus
W. Taylor caused a material delay in
the progress of the trial Of Monte G..
Abrams on a charge of involuntary
manslaughter in Judge Davis criminal
court yesterday. Taylor was an eye
witness to the killing of Isaac L. Low
man by an automobile near Seventh
and Alvarado streets July 2, 1909, and
in his testimony on direct examination
asserted the automobile driven by
Abrams was some distance behind an
other automobile, and that both ma
chimes appeared to be engaged in a
race. The Abrams machine, he said
was on the wrong side of the street
when Lowman was struck.
LIE Compile Davis, attorney for
Abrams, called Taylor's attention to
the fact that he had stated st the in
quest the day following Lowman s
death that the two automobiles were
close together when they passed the
place of his observation. Taylor ex-
planned that the change in his testi-
mony was due to later study OF the
affair, and that he was laboring under
some excitement when he testified at
the inquest.
The Importance of Taylor's testimony
may be gathered Wnen II is kHo"h
that the contention of the defense is
that Abrams was compelled to swerve
to the left by reason of his fear that
the other automobile would collide with
the rear end of his machine, and that
it was while trying to avoid this ac-
cident that his car struck Lowman.
Andrew NJ. Brown, $50 Park View
avenue, said he was in the vicinity of
the accident, that he saw one automo-
bile only, and that it was travelling at
an extraordinarily high speed, so rapid
ly, he added that he ran to the street
corner in anticipation of an accident.

CHARTER BOARD
IS ORGANIZED
THE COMMISSION PLAN FINDS
FAVOR WITH MEMBERS
Work of Forming New Rules for Gov
ernment of Los Angeles Will
Be Carried On Quite
Rapidly

With six of the seven members pres
sion appointed by the council last
week, met in the council committee
room yesterday afternoon and organ
lied. They were called to order by
City Clerk Lelande and j. A. Anderson
was elected temporary chairman
Charles Wellborn was elected tempo
rary secretary, but he held the position
about thirteen seconds as E. O. Edger-
ton, secretary of the Municipal League,
was elected permanent secretary.
A committee composed Of f. G.. Fin
layson, l.. r. Hewitt and DR.. John R
Haynes was appointed on permanent
organization and order of business
The commission will meet Tuesday and
Thursday nights of each week until its
task of framing a new charter is COM
pleted.
The commission is composed OF
Leslie r. Hewitt, Lewis R. Works
Frank G. Finlayson, w. B. Mathews
DR.. John R. Haynes, James y. Ander-
son and Charles Wellborn.
While none of the members of the
commission has expressed any of the
ideas they intend to incorporate ir
the new charter, it is well known that
several of them favor the commission
form of government and it is expected
that something of this nature, either
in whole or in modified form, will be
the result of it's labors.
1t will be the duty of this commits
sion to frame a new charter and ther
the council will call an election for q
board of freeholders composed of fif-
teen men who will take the results OF
the labors of this temporary commits
sion and, if they approve them, submit
a completed charter to the people fol
adoption.
The necessity for a temporary com
mission to precede a regularly author
lied one is due to the. fact that fol
revision purposes the charter itself, as
it now stands, limits the time the
board Of freeholders has to frame the
charter. For this reason much of the
work must be done before it can be
submitted to a freeholders' board.

and at least 1900 second feet will be
necessary for the spring irrigation.
