CITY COUNCIL PLANS
FOR TWO CITY HALLS
May Rent Former Hamburger
Store Site for Homeless
Departments

Los Angeles may have two city halls
If the plan that Is forming in the
minds of the members of the supply
committee, and especially Councilman
Williams, chairman Of the committee,
IS realized. This plan is to lease what
is known as the old Phillips block on
North Spring street, where Hambur-
gers department store was formerly
located.
If this building is leased the depart
ments outside the city hall, for which
the city must pay rent in other build
ings, will be moved into it and d big
saving made in the rent item. The
city now pays $4,000 a year rent for
office room outside the city hall, be-
cause the hall is too small to accom-
modate all the departments. The Phil
lips building can be secured for $1400
a month, or less than half what the
city now pays, and it will provide am
pie room for all the scattered depart
ments.
Then, too, the supply committee con-
s.ders it will be an excellent location
for a municipal storehouse, and some
parts of it can be used for this pur-
pose, even with the homeless depart
ments in it.
1t is not the intention of the commit
tee to make any long term lease of
the building, but to rent it only until
such time as a new city hall can be
built on the Temple block site. 1t will
be several years yet before such a
building can be constructed, even with
greater speed than is usually given to
such contracts, and in the meanwhile
the question Of rent is one that the
council will have to solve.

MAYOR RETURNS To
APPROVE CITY PAYROLL
Saves Cost of Rubber Stamp for
R. M. LuSk, as Acting
Mayor of the City

In order to save the city cents for
q new rubber stamp Mayor Alexander
yesterday paid out considerably more
| than that from his own pocket in rail-
road fare and returned from his noun
tain retreat to sit at his own desk in
the city hall for the day. Incidentally
the mayor also saved considerable
time by coming into the city, and the
city employees will get their pay much
quicker.
When Mayor Alexander is on the job
his name is stamped on the payrolls
and the salary. demands with a rubber
stamp. This stamping is clerical work
and is done by F. G Henderson, the
mayors secretary. But If the mayor
is not in the city his stamp cannot be
legally affixed to the payrolls and de-
mand:. Had he not returned 1t would
have been necessary to have a new
stamp made for R. NJ. Lusk, acting
mayor, or he would have had to sign
es.ch demand with pen and ink, a mat
ter Of no small consequence, as there
are more than 1000 of them.
The mayors return to the city also
gave Judge Lusk an opportunity to
act in his own official capacity as pres
ident of the city council. Mayor AL
exander returned to his aerie in the
mountains last night and will stay
until the end of the week, when he will
return for good. He feels refreshed
and has gained in weight in the last
ten days he has been resting.

RAILROAD LOSES LAWSUIT
BECAUSE OF HORSESHOE
Court Awards Plaintiffs DAM
ages on Odd Testimony

Because of a horseshoe a lawsuit was
lost in Judge Herveys department of
the superior court yesterday. And the
lawsuit was lost by the Southern Pa
ciflc Railway company, too.
Theodore II. Heinauer's complaint
against the railroad included an old
story of how while driving in a wagon
drawn by two horses March l, 1909, at
the intersection of Nadeau and Ala
media street, the shoe of one of the ami
mails was caught in the tracks and be-
fore it could be eXtricated a train had
struck the animal.
The horse was so terribly injured that
it was necessary to kill it, thus entail
ing a loss of $160, the value of the ami
NAL, upon the owner, he said. In ad-
dition to that, the other animal was
injured also, so severely that while it
formerly had been appraised at $125 its
value decreased to $50.
Damages to the harness were esti-
mated at S25 and to the wagon at $40,
and claiming that he was out of work
for eight days because of the accident,
and Valuing his labor at $3.50 a day,
Heinauer thought $44 proper remunera-
ton for that.
Altogether he estimated that 1914 was
due him, but he was willing to accept
$299 80, although he did not retract as
sertions that the track was out of
order and that no signal of the ap-
proach of the train had been given.
It developed in course of the testi-
mony-taking that the other horse the
value of which had been reduced to
$50 by the accident, had died since, and
in rendering judgment against the rail-
road Judge Hervey ordered that before
a settlement was made it's value should
be added to the damages to be awarded
Heinauer.

BONDS TO BE INSURED
WHEN SENT TO NEW YORK
Will Be Forwarded Either by Mail
or Express

Unwilling to risk $1,52O.OOO worth of
owens river bonds to the keeping of
enc man on the long journey from
Los Angeles to New York, w. j.
Washburn, chairman Of the finance
committee, yesterday induced the coun-
Gil to use methods of transportation
for the bonds different from anything
done before with this kind Of secur-
tiles. They are to be sent either by
express or registered mail or insured.
The express method will cost about
$500, while the former method of
sending them to New York in the
care of City Treasurer Hance cost less
than $500, bat Mr.. Washburn believes
that the money the insurance will cost
is we'll worth spending, as it will cover
any possible loss.
The final resolution selling the re-
mafnder Of Glass "F'' bonds and a
Dart Of Glass "G' bonds to the New
York bond buying syndicate and the
New York Life and Metropolitan in
surance companies, was passed by the
council yesterday. This closes the deal,
all except delivering the bonds and

5-CENT FARES WANTED
ON TWO RAILWAY LINES
Los Angeles & Redondo and the
Los AngeIes-PaCific Are
Before City Council

Two electric railways were on the
carpet before the council yesterday
and the real complaint against both
was that scent fares had not been
granted, although the question Of fran
chises was the chief topic of argument.
Residents of the vicinity of Manches-
ter avenue wanted the council to force
the Los Angeles SS Redondo to reduce
the fare to Manchester avenue to 6
cents straight. A scent fare is grant
ed to that point when a twenty-ride
ticket is purchased S. NJ. Haskins,
attorney for the railway, declared that
the Los Angeles & Redondo is losing
money and cannot afford to reduce the
fare.
A special committee of the council,
composed of O'Brien, Betkouskt and
Whiffen, will make an investigation.
This railway has no franchise north OF
Slauson avenue, although it uses city
streets for its cars as far as Second
and Spring. This is being used as a
lever to force the scent fares.
The Colegrove board Of trade asked
the council to declare the franchise of
the Los Angeles-Pacitic through Cole
grove void because of failure to COM
ply Win the terms OF Jne 1rdnCnlSe,
and this was referred to the board of
public utilities for investigation. Cole
grove citizens want better service, bet
ter equipment and 5-cent fares.
One concession was obtained from
the Los Angeles-Pacific yesterday
when that railroad offered to make
a good siXty-foot street from Sunset
boulevard to Hoover street, where 1t
now has its tracks, if the property
owners will deed it a right of way
through the strip. The company
thought 1t did have a right of way
through this lot, but slept on its rights.
The interested property owners bought
the strip of land with the tracks on it
while the company was asleep, and
now say, "If you will make O. street
through this lot we will deed you a
right of way" The railroad has agreed
to the terms.

w. Patterson yesterday filed in the su-
perior court a suit for S23S3.6S damages
against Jennie n. Martin and E. P.

stract of title, the instrument to lie in

before she obtained Mrs. Martins alb
stract the latter transferred her in
terests to Z. P. Caldwell

of her escrow proceedings, attorneys

consummate the exchange, loss on a
probable sale, cost of a suit against

AYERS HEWITT FAVORS
GARBAGE CONTRACTOR
Attorney Asserts City'S Adviser Is
PreiudiCed- Residents Ask
Removal of Station

Intimating that the city attorney was
so prejudiced in favor of Charles Alex
ander, the garbage contractor, that he
would not give an unbiased opinion on
the question of whether Alexander had
violated the terms of his contract, At
torney Gesner Williams yesterday pro-
tested against the council referring
the mayors message on garbage to the
city attorneys department.
EVERY action brought against this
garbage contractor has been vigorously
defended by the city attorney he said.
In every case when a matter touching
on the garbage contract has been re-
ferred to the city attorney Mr.. Hewitts
opinion has been adverse to the men
who are fighting it. 1 respectfully ask
that it be not referred to him, for L
know what his opinion will be in adj
vance. Send it to the board of public
works, for that body has final juris-
diction."
Mr.. Williams represented a number of
property owners in the vicinity of An
derson and Also streets, where the
garbage loading station is located. who
are trying to induce the council to
make the garbage contractor move
elsewhere.
This matter was brought up before
the council yesterday morning by a
message from Acting Mayor Lusk, who
pointed out the unsanitary conditions
of the garbage loading station and the
effect it was having on the health and
property values of the neighborhood
and urged the council to take action
quickly. He suggested the city lease a
few acres of ground away from anyone
where the loading station could be
placed without Offense.
In spite of Mr.. Williams protest the
..I-g4
fare committee and the city attorney.
The welfare committee will meet Thurs
day afternoon at 3 o'clock to consider
the matter.

PROVIDES FUNDS FOR
PAVING CROSS WALKS

The city council yesterday voted to
pay the cost of cement sidewalks at
street intersections and told the fin
ance committee to find the $500 that
the city engineer has asked to defray
the expense of these intersections for
the next year.
THE new sidewalk improvement law,
known as the Grove L. Johnson act,
prohibits assessing the cost Of street
Intersection sidewalks against property
owners in the assessment district, and
some time ago the council decreed
that the city should not pay the cost
The engineer called attention to the
fact that this would leave these inter-
sections without sidewalks OF any
kind and suggested a reversal Of the
policy.
The council believes the legislature
will repeal the Johnson act this win
