NEW DIRECTORS NIGHT AND
DAY BANK SUE TO REOPEN
Superior Court Asked to Enjoin
Alden Anderson

The new board of directors of the
All Night and Day bank, which was
closed recently by order of Alden An
derson, superintendent of banks of
California, who claimed that such ac-
ton was necessary to preserve the in
terests Of the depositors, yesterday
filed in the superior court a suit against
the state official, asking that he be
enioined from further proceedings and
that ne be directed to surrender the
property to the plaintiffs.
The newly elected directors, chosen
at a meeting of stockholders repre-
senting more than tWo-thirds of the
stock of the institution, October IA,
after due notice had been given, are
L. C. Brand, president; John L.
Cooper, secretary; ]. S. Moore, treas
urer and cashier; Roy 1. Cline, b. f.
Cline, Henry Meyer and w. r. Letton.
They assert that the stock of the insti-
tuition, according to the articles of in
corporation, comprises only 1000 shares
and that only 1400 shares have been
actually issued. More than two-thirds
of that amount, it is charged, was rep
resented at the meeting.
The All Night and Day banks trou-
bles began after the institution bor-
rowed about $4,000 and guaranteed
payment by pledging 1155 shares or It's
stock. When payment was not made
the Stock was sold to Hugh Blue as
trustee for Brand.
Shortly after the injunction suit was
filed, Anderson filed an answer, al
leging that as soon as the court should
determine that the present alleged
directors, and not those headed by N:
]. Skinner, rightfully are in charge OF
the institution, he is willing to accede
to their wishes.
The case probably will be rushed
through the court on its merits.

Five persons were injured slightly

of the Macy street bridge, about
o'clock yesterday morning.
The injured:

cut on right hand; Miss Josephine

Passengers were thrown from their

they saw the car approaching jumped
to the ground and escaped injury. The
Covina car was moving slowly at the
time, as there is rule OF the COM

cars to slow down to eight miles an
hour. This fact undoubtedly saved the
lives of a score of persons. Several

DR.. w. E. TiIroe of Boyle Heights
Church Addresses Methodist
Preachers Association

''In the good time coming, when
preachers shall preach and the proph-
cts prophesy, they will be able to ralse
up laymen for the local churches, anti
saloon leagues, hospitals, philanthropic
enterprises, college presidents, editors
and the executive side of district
superintendency and the episcopacy.
These were declarations made by the
Rev. w. E. Tilroe, pastor of the Boyle
Heights church, yesterday morning pc
fore the Methodist Preachers assocla-
ton in paper read on THAT Appoint
ment."
.'The way our bishops are driven to
nreach the same old sermons over for
twenty years." continued DR.. Tilroe,
"to waste the mighty uplift and out
look of their world travels and visions
while they make appointments the
conferences could make as well as
themselves; to be, in effect, three
quarters of their time ecclesiastical
hired men, is the pitiful loss of all
Methodism.
"Real gold brightens ip the hre'
The man you are will stand the tur-
mace of a lifetime and the flames Of
Judgment. The minister who is not
first man, a white soul garmented
in worthy deeds and high ideals, does
not merit the name"
Action was taken by the association
regarding the death of Senator J. T.
Dolliver, who was a Methodist. IL
was decided to send a telegraphic let
ter of coincidence to the family at

DECLARE WATER HEATER
CAUSED HOLLYWOOD FIRE
Official inspection Disposes of
Dynamite Theory

That the explosion of a hot water
heater caused the fire which destroyed
the home of Henry Honigman at 539
Windermere street, Hollywood, early
Sunday morning, is the belief now ex-
pressed by detectives and representa-
tives of the fire department who have
investigated the case. The theory that
it was caused by dynamite has been
abandoned.
A thorough investigation of the ruins
Of the structure was made yesterday
by detectives. The top of the Water
heater vas blown off and one side
of the apparatus had been blown away.
1t was at first thought that because
of the heater being curved at the bot
tom the explosion had been caused by
a charge of dynamite. This was ex-
planned by a plumber living in the
neighborhood yesterday, who said that
all such boilers had convex bottom.
The fire occurred shortly after 3
o'clock Sunday morning, while the oc-
cupants of the house were asleep,
They had little time to fee from .the
house, clad only in their nightclothes.
Nothing was saved in the house. The
loss on the building and contents is
estimated at $4,000. This is partially
covered by insurance.
Early reports that Honigman was
fully dressed when he ran out of the
burning building were denied yester-
day. A neighbor who arrived at the
fire soon after it was discovered said
that other neighbors loaned Honigman
the clothing he was wearing when the
police arrived.

heny would step in and gobble up the
Standard Oil company apd the South
ern Pacific with all their combined
holdings.
A strong point made by Mr.. Burke
was that it is fraudulent under the
law for one man to locate for the
remaining seven in a full placer claim
when the seven names are used only as
dummies for the benefit of the one
person. This practice has been COM
mon and the Yard decision seeks to
eliminate ut as a fraud. Burke said
that all government land bearing oil in
the San Joaquin valley was now To-
Gated, chiefly by dummy names and
that the Yard decision was the relief.
The hearing win be resumed at 10
o'clock this morning.
