ACCUSED OF EMBEZZLING
GEMS, CONDUCTS OWN CASE

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 10. H.
Scott, who is on trial charged with en-
bezzlement of diamonds and money
from Mrs. Anna Marean, this morn
ing arose in court and told the court
that he desired to dispense with the
services of his attorney, J. W. Steph-
enson, and conduct his own case. Yes
terday afternoon Scott objected to the
manner In which his attorney was con-
Quoting the ross-examination, and he
was told by the court that he could
ask any questions he wished and de-
eide after the adjournment if he desired
to take the case out of his hands.
Scott told the court that he was
much more familiar with the case
than his attorney, who had not the
time, he said, to devote to it.
The prisoner handles the eXamina-
ton of the witnesses like a skilled
lawyer. Large crowds are watching
the trial, waiting for the sensational
charges Scott says he intends to make
regarding his relations with the de-
fendant. He has subpoenaed num-
ber of hotel clerks to testify regarding
visits he alleges he and the defendant
made in Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco.

ance Works and Smaller
Non-Union Concerns

chinists' strike in this city has taken
a peculiar turn was learned yester-
day when it was announced that the
strikers have started a rival machine
shop at SO Holly street to compete

other smaller local shops with which
the union men have had trouble since
early in June over the question or
hours and wages. 1t is said that the
new institution will employ from four
to seven men at the outset and that
it is hoped to make places for all the
strikers in a short time.
William N. Beyerle, former employe
of the Reliance works, Is proprietor OF
the new shop and he has associated
with him E. P. Hartt, who acted as
foreman at the Reliance shops before
the strike, and Frank Rainsford, an
other one of the strikers. Special at
tention has been paid to light ana
ventilation in the new shops which the
proprietor points out as model In
sanitation.
Mr.. Beyerle when interviewed last
evening stated that no malice is in
tended in starting the rival concern,
but declares that it is purely bust
ness proposition. I'VE are equipped
to handle some work in the repair line
which the other shops cannot touch,
he said, land we expect to add to our
facilities as business warrants.

PASSING BAD CHECKS
Officials State Prisoner Issued
Almost $500 in VaIueIeSS
Commercial Paper

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. Z-Ber-
nard f. McElroy, arrested here yester-
day as suspect, is accused of passing
worthless checks. The police say that
during the three days after he arrived
here no less than $500 in checks on the
Citizens National bank of Anaheim
were passed. McElroy is said by the
police to have lavished a considerable
sum of money. The police have
record of bad checks aggregating $1,000
for which McElroy is responsible.
McElroy Is charged with drawing on
a draft of $4,000 which Thursday of last
week he deposited at the Anaheim

draft was made payable stating that 1t
was fictitious. McElroy was held as a
suspect since yesterday morning, but
today a charge of passing worthless
checks was placed against him. The
police say he has confessed to Chief w.
A. Shay.
When he first arrived he registered
at the Stewart hotel as Gerald Thaw of
Pittsburg. The next day he changed
the register to read Bernard E. Nc
Elroy. The records of the Los An
geles police show a man giving the
same name was under arrest in that
city August % for attempting to pass

REPLACE TRACK LAYERS
BY SURVEYING PARTY
Los Angeles City Officials Make
Inspection of Work Done
by Railroads

SAN PEDRO, Sept. 7.-Activity in
track-laying on the right of way of the
proposed highway to the outer harbor
has ceased and surveyors have taken
the place of Iaborers. Yesterday rail-
road surveyors were ordered off the
Huntington fill by police officers on
guard, but today they continued to
run lines over the land belonging to
the railroad companies.
City surveyors are also busy in the
vicinity of the outer harbor establish
ing monuments to mark the boundar-
les of the Huntington fill and the land
to be condemned. This work is being
done by a special field party sent down
from Los Angeles. Most of the en-
gineers in the party were here several
months ago when the water front was
surveyed.
City Engineer Hamlin, Harbor En-
gineer Vincent and City Attorney
Shenk were here today inspecting the
work done by the railroads. No fur
ther work was attempted today by the
construction gangs, although the five
lines laid in the recess in the bluff be-
tween Ninth and Eleventh streets can
hardly be used in their present con-
dition. No trolley wire has been put
up and as no grading was done the
ties and rails do not touch the ground
in many places.
Tonight a special squad of five po-
licemen will continue their watch over
the tracks at the Huntington fill to
prevent the railroads from connecting
the old spurs on the concession with
their lines.

UNMUzZLING Of DOCS

tempt of the city council to repeal the
dog muzzling ordinance has met with
strong objection on the part of resi-
dents. A petition signed by more than
fifty citizens was received by the coun-
Gil asking that the law be continued

adopted early in the summer by the
council at the suggestion of the county
board of supervisors, became objec-
tionable to many Santa Monicans who
desired to allow their dogs to roam
without muzzles and the city attorney
was instructed to prepare an ordinance
repeating it. No action was taken in
the matter.
