CITY WINS SUIT.
Milling Company Denied Right to
Waters of Los Angeles River.

The city of Los Angeles was given the
paramount right, as far as the Los
Angeles Farming and Milling Company is
concerned, to take and use all the waters
of the Los Angeles river, by a decision
announced yesterday by the Supreme
Court of the United States.
This controversy arose over the action
begun by the city to quiet its alleged
title to the waters. 1t claimed a right
to the use of the waters by virtue OF
powers conferred upon Los Angeles under
Spanish and Mexican rule
The farming and milling company
which owns land through which the river
flows. claimed that the water rights In
controversy were vested by the treaty
of Guadalupe Hidalgo in the United
States 1t alleged that its predecessors
had conveyed to it legal title to the use
of the waters.
The supreme court of California affirm
ed the judgment of the lower state courts
which had given judgment in favor OF
the city. and the Supreme Court yesterda y
announced its refusal to disturb the de-
cision of the California courts.

Roosevelt No Foe to Taft;
Story "BaSeIeSS Fabrication

ROME, April 5.-Mr. Roosevelt again
today was besieged by newspaper men,
who sought to draw from him an intima-
ton of his attitude toward the admins
tration of President Taft.
He was told of reports circulated in the
United States to the effect that there was
a GOODNESS between the President and
himself This did not disturb his equa-
nimity or lead him into any comment.
Mr. Roosevelt did not come TO Rome
to learn the wiles of the news gatherer
However, 1t can be said on excellent au-
thority that any report that Mr.. Roose-
Welt proposes to repudlate his successor
in the presidency is a ''baseless fabrlca-
ton.
1t was also learned that Mr. Roose-
welt had hoped to see Senator Elihu Root
in Europe.
The following summary of the former
Presidents attitude toward American
policies was personally authorized:
Mr.. Roosevelt has not minated what
he will or what he will not do upon his
return 70 the United States.
He has constantly refrained from dis
cussing politics in any way or manner.
He has listened to the opinions of Amerl-
cans whom he has seen. but declined to
talk thereon.
He will see Clifford Pinchot at Genoa
lust as he will see other old friends who
desire to see him, and just as he desired
to see Senator Root, who. unfortunately,
found himself unable to come TO Europe. y

Justice Van Orsdel Says Place of

Conspicuously Dressed.

The contention of Plympton P. Chase.
has the right TO exclude from his show
house marines or others conspicuously
dressed is sustained in an opinion Of the
Court of Appeals in the case of Joseph
Marrone who sued the Washington
Jockey Club and its stewards for refus-
track after he had purchased ticket
The judgment of the District Supreme
Court. which found in favor of the
jockey club when it complained of tine
alleged Objectionable conduct of Marrone
on a previous occasion, was affirmed
Justice Van Orsde, who wrote the
opinion. in speaking of the right of the
management of a place of entertainment
or amusement to exclude whom he
pleaSeS, says:
HE may exclude one because he is OBJ
jectionabl to the patrons of his place:
he may deny another admission because
his dress or personal appearance is such
as TO attract attention from the per-
Torrance or interfere with its progress in
the manner he desires to have it conduct
ed, and he may refuse another, as in the
present case, because of alleged OBJ
jectiCnable conduct on a former occasion.
All these matters are exclusively within
the control of the proprietor. and when
he revokes the license granted by the
sale of the ticket, the ticketholder'S only
remedy is for breach of the contract
which would entitle him to recover the
amount paid for the ticket and the neces-
Sary expenses incurred in attending the
performance"
