REFUSE CASH FOR FIRE
ESCAPE ON CITY HALL
Inspector May Have to Arrest
His Superiors for Hindering
Enforcement of Law I

The finance committee of the coun-
ell has hurled defiance at Building In
spector Backus by refusing to PROVIDE
$4,000 for four fire escapes and the nee
essary standpipes as protection for the
city hall. The committee has taken
the attitude that the city can better
afford to take a little chance than to
spend $4,000 to protect the city nail
that it hopes to sell soon, especially
when the city's finances are so low,
and Backus faces the problem of nav
ing his bosses arrested or neglectlng
his duty.
But the attitude of the finance com
nittee brings up an interesting sltua-
ton, The building ordinance requires
that fire escapes be provided for build
ings of a certain size and height ana
fixes a penalty of fine and imprison-
ment for failure to obey this ordi-
nance.
Building Inspector Bacllus is respon-
sible for the enforcement of this or
dinance, and he has been most rig
orous in it's enforcement, as the own
ers of many buildings can TESTIFY. The
board of public works is custodian OF
the city hall and responsible for its
protection. The board of public works
is also boss of Mr.. Backus, as the
building department is a bureau under
the Jurisdiction of the department of
public works.
Now, will Mr.. Backus have to arrest
the three members of the board or
public works because they cannot
wiring the money out of the finance
committee to do what Mr.. BackuS de-
mands shall be done?

WITNESS SHOUTS IIARY
AT COMMISSION SESSION
L. B. GyIe Exhibits Anger over a
Liquor Permit Inquiry

you're a liar" was the way L. b.
Gyle addressed A. J. Barnes, who
owns the Rainier cafe, before the po-
lice commission last night.
Tut, tut" said John TOpham, who
recovered his breath first and Gye
"tutted," because he did not have
another word to say.
This remark was brought out in the
case the commission was trying against
Barnes. He was accused of giving
free meals to members of the police
force, and the commission thought he
was looking for immunity for some-
thing or he would not be so generous
Gyle has been trying to buy the
Rainier, but the commission refused
to grant him a restaurant liquor per-
nit. On the witness stand last night
Gyle said some things that gave the
commission the impression that Barnes
was not conducting his cafe as he
should, and when Barnes had a chance
to question him he asked about some
personal matters. One of his ques-
tions was:
"Why did you offer to bet $1,000 to
81 that the police commission would
revoke my licence?"
Then It was that Gyle called names.
But Barnes put Charles Giant a
waiter, on the stand who swore that
Gyle had offered to make the bet.
The commission did mt seem to
consider the case seriously but took
it under advisement.

HILL STREET TUNNEL
ORDINANCE DRAFT TED
Work Is to Be Done under the
Bond Provision of the
Vroman Act

An ordinance of intention to con-
struct a tunnel under Hill street, be-
tween First and Temple will be pre-
scented to the council by the city
engineer today.
The work is to be done under the
bond provision of the Vrooman act,
paid for by property owners within
an assessment district considered to
be benefited by the tunnel. The engi-
neer's estimate of the cost is $167 per
front foot for a minimum and $3.50 as
a maximum.
The city owns about Pts feet of
frontage in the proposed assessment
district, and as no assessment can be
collected against public property by
any legal process, the engineer asks
that the council set aside enough from
the general expense fund to pay the
city's share of the expense. If this is
not done the entire expense will fall
on the other property owners in the
district.
This tunnel is to parallel the tunnel
recently constructed by the Los An
geles-Pacific as an outlet for its cars
to Hollywood.
The east wall of the tunnel as it
now stands is a party wall built with
the understanding that the city would
sooner or later construct tunnel and
use it. paying the railway $11, 172O3,
half the cost of the wall.
The engineer does not expect the
work to proceed SO rapidly that any
of the money asked for will become
due during the present fiscal year, but
If the tunnel Is constructed it must be
provided in the next budget, which
will be made up the first of next July.

POLICE STATIONS HEATING
SYSTEM TO BE CHANGED

Members of the police department
stationed at Eastside station will not
have to walk on their hands this win
ter to KEEP their feet warm. The finance
committee had arranged to provide
$500 for changes in the heating system
at both east side and central stations.
The police commission asked for $780,
000.
The architect who drew the plans
for the east side station considered
that he had discovered q new wrinkle
in natural law and placed the radiators
up in the ceiling. 1t proved fine bust
ness for the flies and spiders last win
ter, but the policemen had TO wear
their arctics.
These radiators are to come down to
the floor and be set in normal con-
ditiOn.

LEGAL QUESTION DELAYS
PAVING 9TH STREET DITCH

Delay in the paving of the trench on
Sixth street, between Olive and Fig
ueroa, must continue until the city
attorney tells the board Of public
works whether the Pacific Electric
or the water department must do the
work. Such is the report the board
will make to the council today.
Several weeks ago the water depart
ment dug a trench to relay a main
pipe. During the process of excava-
ton the dirt caved so that it under
mined the right of way of the Pacific
Electric. The railway had recently
paved it's right of way to the
satisfaction of the board of pub
lie works. The water department
refused to repave the portion over
the cave declaring that it was on
the territory of the Pacific Electric
and the railway would have to stand
the cost, which is estimated to be
about 5000. The railway has refused
to do so and now the city attorney
must decide the case.

SLAYER Of WOMAN IS
SENT FOLSOM FOR LIFE
Schulz, Declared Sane by Jury,
Pleads Guilty to Murder and
Is Sentenced

Otto Schulz. who murdered his BEN
efactor, Mrs. F. Finke Castine-Schulz,
at Lancaster, August ~, was sentenced
to serve a life sentence in the peni-
tertiary at Folsom yesterday by Judge
Davis of the criminal department of
the superior court, after one of the
shortest trials of the kind ever held
in Los Angeles county.
Schulz appeared in the court room
looking much fatter than when he was
arrested shortly after the murder. He
appeared more stolid also, If possible,
and showed not the least emotion
throughout the entire time that the
trial was in progress.
AS soon as the case was called Earl
Newmire, Schulz attorney, read an
affidavit in which he charged that
Schulz was insane, and a jury speed
lily was impaneled to determine If such
were the case.
Emil Schulz, the murderer's brother,
testified that the prisoner had suffered
long illness when he was a child
and thought that perhaps accounts for
his stolidity.
w. A. Hammel, sheriff, followed the
murderer's brother on the stand and
spoke of the prisoners general stu
pidity and declared his belief that it
was not a case where the death pen
atty should be imposed.
DIR. George W. Campbell, a1ienist,
advanced the opinion that Schulz is
not insane, but that his mentality is
of low order, the brutal instincts be-
ing highly developed.
The murderer himself retold the
story of the brutal crime, this time,
however, altering it slightly by de-
claring that 1t was with an ak and
not shovel, as he had previously
stated, that he had struck his aged
benefactor down.
The jury required only a few min
utes to decide that Schulz was not in
sane, whereupon he withdrew his plea
of not guilty and entered one of guilty.
Although it was murder in the first
degree and the death sentence could
have been passed upon him, Judge
Davis merely condemned him to life
imprisonment at Folsom, where he was
started last night in the custody of
a deputy sheriff.
While Schulz trial was in progress
before Judge Davis, Judge Rives Of
the probate department gave atten-
ton to the application Of Emil Schulz
for letters of administration in the
estate of the dead woman, which is
valued at about $4,000. The matter
was continued until November z.
Another murder case received atten-
ton by Judge Davis yesterday also.
It was that OF Aaron Grafton, colored,
who is accused of killing John Allen
at the Italian American club in Santa
Fe avenue. The case was postponed
until December 8.

WILL RETURN TO NATURAL
SOIL STREET IMPROVEMENT

Specifications for natural soil street
improvements will be forwarded to the
council by the board of public works
today and the council asked to in
corporate them in the street improve
ment ordinance. These specifications
provide for plenty of oil and sand on
an earth roadbed.
The city some time ago gave up nat
ural soil street improvements, demand
ing that either gravel or crushed rock
be employed. But there has been so
much difficulty to get gravel and
crushed rock, especially at San Pedro
and Wilmington, that practically all
street improvements have stopped in
that part of the city. The natural soil
specifications will be used only at the
hrabor points and some places in the
shoestring strip.

DENIES CHURCHES
+. FAVOR FREDERICKS
Federation Adopts Resolutions
Regulating Any Approval
of District Attorney
NO CANDIDATE IS ENDORSED
Or. Newell RefuteS Statements
Credited to Him by County
Prosecutors Friends
NO CANDIDATE is ENDORSED

Another prop was knocked from
under John ID. Fredericks yesterday
when the Church federation adopted
a resolution repudiating a statement
which certain supporters of Freder-
icks attribute to the Rev. DR.. j. M.
Newell, in which the minister is quot
ed as saying that the Church feder-
alton indorses the incumbent's re-
election.
The Rev. DR.. J. M. Newell denies
that he made the statement saddled
on him. He strongly declares that the
name of the Church federation did not
enter into his discourse-a speech
which certain supporters of Freder-
icks twisted out of semblance to serve
the cause of their candidate.
Secretary F. D. r. Moot of the
Church federation said yesterday:
1--WE do not intend to take any &C
ton in the fight for the office of dis
trict attorney and object to having
statements made that as a body we
are supporting Fredericks. DR.. New
ell, who is a retired minister, declares
that he did not make the assertion
credited, to him. We feel that an in
justice is being done to our organiza-
ton by allowing such statement TO
stand uncorrected."
The Church federation called on DR..
Erwin S. Chapman, superintendent of
the Anti-Saloon league, to explain
whether the Church federation might
be supposed to have any connection
with or responsibility for certain ar
ticles lauding Fredericks which have
recently appeared in the Searchlight,
the official organ of the Anti-Saloon
league. DR.. Chapman replied that the
Anti-Saloon league consisted of the
executive board and the officers of the
organization, and that any utterances
of the Searchlight might be laid at the
doors Of the executive board and Of
ficers.
The mere fact of being a contributor
to the league did not invest one with
the privilege of membership, and while
there were many contributors to the
Anti-saloon society among the ones
making up the Church federation they
were in no way responsible for what
the Searchlight might have said, nor
curing in its utterances.
The resolution adopted at yesterdays
meeting follows:
In view of the fact that one of
the morning papers recently report
ed Rev. DR.. j. M. Newell as hav-
ing said regarding the candidacy
of Capt John D. Fredericks: us it
not strange that these men of the
Church federation, these men who
are supposed to be leaders in the
cause of righteousness should stand
for this same man." 1t is fair and
just for all parties concerned for
this council of tie Church fedora
ton to declare that it has never
taken any action, nor does it in
tend to take any action, for or
against any candidate for the Of
flee of district attorney in the pres
ent election, and to have this state
ment made in the daily press.

CLAIMS $4,000 DUE HER
FROM s1,500,000 ESTATE
Asks Reimbursement for Conf
dental Services to Late
Mrs. Carrie M. Jones

Alleging 5000 to be due her for SER
vices ranging from dressing hair to
advising the purchase of realty. Mrs.
Nell I. Bennett of the Bennett Toilet
parlors yesterday filed a suit for that
amount against the Southern Trust
company, as executor of the last will
of Mrs. Carrie NJ. Jones, who died Oc-
tober 10, 1909, leaving an estate ap-
praised at about $1,500,000, although its
value had been estimated at nearly
seven times that much.
Mrs. Bennett declares that for the
six or seven years preceding the death
of Mrs. Jones she had acted as the
dead woman's confidential adviser as
to her financial, business and personal
affairs. She asserts that the services
she rendered to Mrs. Jones included
assistance in the purchase of clothing
and "all articles needed for her ap-
parel, dressing and personal use;" Sc
Letting and procuring books for her
library; advising as to the purchase
of stocks and bonds; leasing of the
lot at Fifth and Spring streets, now
occupied by the Security Savings
bank selling property, and giving her
personal care and attention in the last
six months of her life, all being at the
special request of the dead woman,
it is alleged.
Mrs. Bennett declares that Mrs
Jones promised, in return for the SER
vices named, to bequeath her all of her
stocks and bonds, valued at $199,10
in addition to an amount sufficient to
render the plaintiff Independent for
life and quite without the necessity
of performing work of any kind or
of conducting a business.
The plaintiff AYERS that in the will
of Mrs. Jones her name was not men+
toned at all. She asserts that the in
strument was probated March 7, 1910,
and that the next day letters tesla
were issued to the Southern
Trust company, which then advertised
for claims against the etsate. Mrs.
Bennett says she presented her claim
for $25, 900, but that it was neglected
and she therefore has filed the present
suit.
