PANAMANIANS WANT 1915
FAIR HELD ON THIS COAST
Man from Big Ditch Says Condi-
tions Are Excellent

If the Independent Order of Pana-
manian Kangaroos have anything to
say about it, the proposed 1915 Panama
Pacific exposition will be held on this
coast, according to George H. Vogan,
an employe of the Panama commits
sion in the canal zone, who is in Los
Angeles. a guest at the Natick house.
The Kangaroos are a social and fra
ternal order organized four years ago
by the white men employed in build
ing the canal, and Mr.. Vogen states
that practically every one of the 2OOO
members of the order are in favor of
holding the big fair on this coast.
Accompanied by his wife, Mr. Vogen
is on his third leave of absence from
the canal zone and on his third trip to
California.
1.-THE conditions down there" said
Mr.. Vogen yesterday, "are excellent
and the canal will undoubtedly be
finished by 1915. Nearly all the con-
crete work on the big locks is COM
pleted, and other parts of the work are
moving along rapidly and smoothly
The health of the men employed and
of all in the zone is excellent and the
men have little to complain of.
"In the republic of Panama things
are progressing equally well, and since
the recent election there there has been
no disturbance of any kind. The Amer
leans in business are prospering ex-
ceedingly in the zone, which in itself
speaks well for the American influence
over Panama's government. 1 have
not heard of single business failure
in the zone since taking up my resi-
dence there"

GUN STOPS CHAUFFEUR
S7UNG BY Speed BUG"
Gets Fifteen Days in Jail Because
of Being in Hurry to
Reach Beach

H. A. Greeley. chauffeur for the Oil
Well Supplies company, who was ar
rested by Motorcycle Officers Coe and
Gardner Sunday afternoon, only after
they fired two shots in the direction
of the automobile in which he was
driving before he would stop, was sem
fenced to serve fifteen days in the city
Jail by Police Judge Chambers yester-
day.
Greeley was driving an automobile
in West Pico street, and was making
forty-five miles an hour when the
officers trailed him. When he dis
covered he was being pursued he tried
to make his machine fly, and was
about to make good his escape until
the officers proved to him that bullets
are faster than automobile wheels and
he was overtaken.
The only explanation Greeley could
give for his violation of the law was
that "he was in a hurry to get to the
beach,"
Greeley was released on 500 cash
bail after being arrested. and failed to
appear in court yesterday morning.
His bail was declared forfeited and
bench warrant was issued for his ar
rest. He was soon taken into custody
by Officer Gardner and taken into
court and sentenced.
Four other automobilists yielded to
tlo SlIlB VI IIlt SpC0u Du6 ouuld1yp
and yesterday were introduced to
Police Court Chambers through COM
plants charging them with violating
the speed ordinances.
F. G. Folsom was attempting to beat
his own time to the beach along West
Pico street. Sergeant Benedict fol-
lowed the scorching autoist for about
a mile. but was unable to overtake
him. 1t was then that he met Officers
Coe and Gardner, and they took up
the chase and succeeded in overtaking
him and arresting him. He was max
ing thirty-five miles an hour. He got
off with a $50 fine.
Owing to the fact that there are
several cases which have been taken
upon appeal in which the defendants
are charged with violating the thirty
mile ordinance, which prescribes
mandatory Jail sentence of ten days a
complaint charging him with violating
the twenty-mile ordinance was filed
against him.
Fred Odar also paid $50 fine yester-
day in the same court for driving his
automobile faster than the ordinance
permits. It was his second time in
court charged with the same offense.
G. A. Hayes and ]. S. Yada were fined
S25 each. All the fines were paid.

BOY TRIES TO STEAL RIDE
ON TRAIN; LEG MANGLED
Limb Is Amputa ed, and Recov'
cry Is Expected

Falling beneath the wheels of a Salt
Lake train on which he was trying to
steal a ride, between Avenues Fifty
four and Fifty-five, Henry Moon, 13-
year-old son of c. e. Moon of San
Dimas, suffered badly mangled left
leg below the knee yesterday after

nue. Fifty-fye, where it was found
necessary to perform an operation.
The boy was taken to the Crocker
street hospital, where the leg was am
putated below the knee.
Moon, accompanied by Pratt Elliss,
son of w. D. Ellis, 139 Avenue Fifty
five, attempted to swing aboard the
train. Ellis succeeded, but Moon
missed his grip and was thrown be-
meath the wheels of the car. The boy s
parents were notified of the accident
and they left Immediately for Los An
geleS.

YOUTH HELD TO ANSWER
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT
Gordon Kierstead Faces Prison
If Convicted

In holding Gordon Kierstead to an
swer to the superior court yesterday
afternoon on charge of committing a
statutory offense, Justice Summerfield
said: "This is the most vicious case
ever brought to the attention Of this
court, for it not only involves this
young man and the complaining wit
ness. but 1t also involves two other
young men and two very young girls.
This offense is considered nearly as bad
as murder and train-wrecking, and II
this young man is found guilty by a
Jury of his peers he faces life tmpris-
onment in a state penitentiary. l am
very sorry for him, but 1t is tho order
of this court that he be held to answer
with bail fixed at $4,000, and in default
of bail that he be remanded to the Gus
tody of the sheriff"
Lillian Carnicle, a 16-year-old girl,
the principal witness for tho prosecu-
ti6n, took the stand and denied Kier-
stead's guilt. Assistant District Attor-
new Earl Newmeyer placed witnesses
on the stand who testified differently
and the court bound the young man
over to the higher tribunal. The girl
was taken before Judge Wilbur in the
Juvenile court and was placed In
convent.
Kierstead's troubles are the result OF
a 10y ride to Santa Monica canyon. HIS
two companions were Ed Lyman, a
former Los Angeles police officer, and
r. Rome. Rome is awaiting trial, while
Lyman is still at liberty, after escaping
from officers in San Pedro.

COIN ASSURED TO
HASTEN AQUEDUCT
Syndicate Releases Option on
$1,OO0O0O Worth of Bonds
Which Will Be Sold

Negotiations for more money to con-
tinue the work on the owens river
aQueduct were practically concluded
yesterday to the advantage of the city
when A. B. Leach & Co and Kountze
Bros, the bond buying syndicate that
has been handling the aqueduct securi-
ties, sent q letter to w. j. Washburn,
chairman of the finance committee,
agreeing to the city's terms.
The bond syndicate releases its op-
ton on S1,0O0,00O worth of the bonds
and these bonds will be sold to the
New York Life and the Metropolitan
Insurance companies at par. Each In
surance company takes $5OO,OOO worth
of the bonds.
In addition the bond buyers offer TO
take $530000 of the bonds themselves
at once. which is an advance of the
December payment, and also offers to
try to dispose of another half million.
There seems to be no doubt that they
will meet with success in this attempt
This money, with what is on hand
and what the sinking fund will pro-
vide, will finance the construction OF
the auueduct at the maximum speed
and the big ditch can be built at the
accelerated pace that was hoped for
completing 1t q year sooner than was
anticipated in the original estimate.
It will require a little time to get
into full swing again, and 1t will prop
ably be the latter part of next month
before the same progress will be noted
that was shown when construction
slackened for lack of money.
William Mulholland, chief engineer
of the aqueduct, said yesterday that the
splendid organization that had been
built up when money was plentiful had
been disrupted by the necessity of re-
ducing the force during the last rev
weeks but that as soon as it was
known the money was in hand labor
would again be plentiful.

RAILWAYS CLASH
WITH CITY BOARD
Paving Work Demanded by New
Ordinance Not Meeting Spe-
CifiCations, Is Charge
CORPORATIONS TAKE STAND
Companies Declare They Will
Comply with Terms of Con-
tract, but No More
CORPORATIONS TAKE STAND

The clash between the board of pub
lie works and the railways over the
improved paving demanded In the new
ordinance has come in the attempt OF
the Los Angeles Railway company TO
pave a portion of it's tracks on seventh
street between Broadway and Fig
ueroa. The work is not being done ac-
cording to specifications laid down IN
the new ordinance, and officials OF the
railway company have notified w. M.
Humphreys of the board of pubic
works that the railway company Will
comply with the terms of its franchise,
but no more.
The matter was brought to the at
tention of the board of public works
yesterday by Homer Hamlin, city en-
gineer, who found the work being done
by the railway company at variance
with the new ordinance in at least four
particulars. These he enumerated as
follows:
"First-No permit has been obtained
from the board of public works for
doing this work.
"second-No deposit of inspection
fees has been made.
''Third-Neither concrete nor grout-
ed ballast is being used under the ties,
nor in lieu thereof has permission been
obtained from the board of public
works to use ballast without grouting.
"Fourth-Neither stone blocks nor
vitrified paving plocks are being used
along the rails, but instead single
row of so-called bituminized brick"
w. NJ Humphreys is convinced
that the railway company intends to
make a test of the ordinance by ignor-
ing the paving provisions and doing the
work as 1t pleases.
"The railway company notified me
that 1t would comply with the terms of
its franchise, but it did not intend to
go any further" said Mr.. Humphreys.
"The board discussed the matter
thoroughly, for it would be serious
Inconvenience to the travelling public
to stop the work. and the question of
putting the clamps down hard at this
point is a serious one. 1t may be that
we will not stop the work now, but
prosecute the railway company after
the work is completed. We have not
fully decided what to do, but have
asked the city attorney for his advice" "
Aside from the Inconvenience caused
by the torn up condition of the tracks
there is much complaint because of the
action of the company in piling sand
stone. brick and other material along
its line in such a way as to make the
street almost impossible. There were
scores of complaints from drivers OF
all kinds of vehicles Saturday and yes
terday regarding the condition of Sew
enth street between Broadway and
Hill street
