PEACE Full PICKET TING NOT
ILLEGAL, SAYS ATTORNEY
Injunction Case of LIeWeIIyn Iron
Works Against Striking
Workers Continued

Following an argument lasting nearly
the entire day, the hearing of the in
junction case of the Llewellyn iron
works against the Metal Trades coun-
Gil was yesterday continued until
Thursday morning at 10:30 o'clock.
That the complaint deals in mere con-
illusions and does not state any facts
which would Justify an injunction is
the contention of the labor representa-
tives. Job Hartman and Fred J. Spring.
The reply of the employers will prob
ably begin at the next meeting.
The subject of "picketing" was dealt
with at length. That there are two
kinds--lawful and neutrality-suspicious.
was the statement of Hartman. A
number of court decisions on the point
were quoted. Attention was called to
the fact that no specific acts of vio-
lence were alleged in the Lfewellyn
complaint, and it was argued that
without these picketing was lawful.
Can it be maintained" asked Attor-
ney Hartman, "that old employees have
no right to approach the new men
peacefully and state their position in
the dispute?"
The Llewellyn injunction, being the
first, is made a test case. Should it be
set aside the same would no doubt fol-
low for all of the others, numbering
more than dozen.

Violators of the city dog muzzling
ordinance began paying fines before
Police Judge Frederickson yesterday
when it was concluded that suspended
sentences for such infractions of the
law were not doing any good toward
ridding the city of vicious CANNES.
William p. Greene, 1915 West Elev-
enth street, told Judge Frederickson,
before whom he was arraigned on a
charge of harboring an unmuzzled dog,
that he took precautionary measures
to keep the canine within the bounds
of his own yard. 1t developed through
the testimony of the arresting officer
and neighbors that the precautlon used
by Greene was a small wire cage
which the dog easily broke. He paid
S. fine.
]. f. Riddle was too busy to watch
his dog and consequently it strayed
away from home minus a muzzle. IL
was found short time later and its
owner requested to appear In ponce
court. Riddle paid IS.
Tom Chappelle, in court on similar
charge. changed the line of defense put
forward by the other offenders, and
pleaded that his dog was an old New
foundland dog. Before, all the dogs
had been puppies. Because of this
fact he was let off with a SO fine.
E. Casey's dog caused hlm TO ap-
pear in court yesterday charged with
violating the muzzle ordinance. AL
though Casey said he had always kept
tie dog muzzled, the patrolman Just

pleaded Casey.
'If the dog had bitten some one
while he had his muzzle off, 1t would
not have made any difference" said
Judge Frederickson. Il think you had
.,etter pay a $5 fine as reminder for
YOU to keep a close watch on your
dog" added the judge.
One of the most perplexfng ques-
tions propounded to the police magis-
trate during the morning session by
an ordinance violator was asked by
Frank Goings.
"How is a man going to keep a
muzzle on a dog when the dogs neck
is larger than his head?" asked Go
ings. .
"Well that's goin' some," replied the
Judge. but the ordinance requires that
YOU keep a muzzle on your dog and
I'll have to enforce the law. Five dol
lars or five days." he added. Goings
paid the fine

paid $5 fines for failing to keep their
dogs muzzled.

.sW|NDLER REPORTED As
DEAD SAID To Be ALIVE
Charges Against 0. J. Watkins
Stand Pending Efforts to
Trace Him

Local federal officials have received
information that Ollie ]. Watkins, the
real estate promoter and alleged land
swindler, who was reported to be dead
after his indictment by the courts, has
been seen in Australia. 1t is said that
federal authorities were not entirely
satisfied with reports of Watkins
death in January, 1909, at which time
he was reported to have been killed in
a runaway at Cotton. 1t is said, also,
that the accident was not investigated
as closely as it might have been at
the time of it's occurrence.
His cases, which came up yesterday
in the United States district court,
were continued for the term instead of
being dismissed. 1t was deemed adj
visable not to dismiss the charges
against him until full investigation
is conducted.
One of the executive departments In
Washington has made the report that
a special agent of the government In
Australia saw Watkins in that country
recently. G.. Ray Horton, assistant.
United States attorney, said yesterday
that the matter is being handled by
authorities from Washington.
Watkins was indicted eight times in
1904 and 1905 on charges of using the
mail in a scheme to defraud. He was
accused of selling California land to
people in the east through advertise
ments sent through the mails. Five
of the charges are still pending, he
having pleaded guilty to one of them
and paid a fine of $3.50, and two of
the others having been dismissed.

REMOVAL OF THIRD RAIL
TO CONTINUE DEEHYS
Thirty Days Necessary for Re-
sumption Of, Quick Traffic

Work of removing the third rail and
the repaving of the Los Angeles Rail-
way company's tracks on West Seventh
street, from Grand avenue to Broad
way, was begun yesterday morning,
under the new specifications of the city
requiring cement concrete instead Of
asphalt concrete.
Six lines use the tracks which are
affected by the removal Of the third
rail. There was much congestion of
traffic yesterday owing to the necessity
of switching the cars over on to the
single track which will be used until
the other tracks are ready for use
again.
The company says that an average
OF 110 cars an hour use this section OF
track; that with the use Of a cement
concrete base only one track at a time
can be utilized for traffic, and that the
concrete must have nine days to set.
1t is stated that thirty days will be
required to complete the work.
Many passengers on the Redondo
Beach. Grand avenue, Seventh street,
Rovle Heights and South Depot lines
complained yesterday because of de-
laws averaging ten minutes The COM
many says this delay is unavoidable and
will continue thirty days, until both
tracks are ready for use again.

GREEK OFFERS ICE CREAM;
POLICEMAN IGNORES BRIBE
Rings Bell and Is Convicted Under
Noise Law

The first conviction under Chief of
Police Galloway's noise" ordinance,
which was resurrected several days
ago and published in the police bulle-
tin, was had yesterday in Police Judge
Frederickson's court. Dick Amerian,
a Greek ice cream vender, was the
first to feel the sting of the new ordi-
nance. Dick caused the nerves of per-
sons living in the vicinity of Trinity
street to be put on edge by the con-
stant ringing of bell to attract GUS
toners. A complaint was made to the
police.
American was discovered Sunday
afternoon by Patrolman Shoulty as he
was attracting the attention of pass
ersby by ringing a large sized bell.
When arrested the Greek attempted to
buy the police officer, first with
quart of ice cream, then with dollar,
but the latter ignored the bribe and
took American to police headquarters, do rs

ASKS LARGE
ASSESSMENT REDUCTION
Representatives of Alleged Ben
evoIent Corporation Make
Appeal to Board

The Hospital of the Good Samaritan
yesterday asked the board of equaliza-
ton to make a reduction from $92,7S0
to $4,000 in the assessment Of the hos
pital corporations holdings. The ap-
plication for the reduction was made
on the ground that the owner Of the
hospital is a benevolent corporation
with no capital stock and paying no
dividends; also that the hospital is OPP
Grated for charitable purposes.
Representatives of the corporation
made a personal appeal to the board.
1t was claimed that the county is un-
der obligations to the hospital because
many patients are treated there who
would, if 1t were not for the existence
of such a hospital, be compelled to go
to the county hospital.
The board took the application un-
der advisement. A similar application
was rejected by the board last year.
The Salvation Army made similar
appeal to the board of equalization.
Major e. W. Campbell appeared before
the board and requested a reduction
in the assessment on the workingmen'
home on Wilmington street, which is
assessed at $35,52O. All of the receipts
of the building, he said, are used for
charitable purposes.
He stated that the army paid the
full amount of assessment last year,
but was compelled to go into debt to
do it. He denied a report that Is per
cent of the receipts of the Salvation
Army are sent away, pointing out that
per cent from the receipts from one
department are sent away and 10 per
cent of the receipts of another depart
ment. L
The Salvation Army rents consider
able property, and the question con-
fronted the board whether, under these
circumstances, the reduction should
be made. 1t took the matter under ad-
visement.
The assessment on real estate of the
Y. M C. A. was reduced from $45,O0O
to $551O. Application was made by A.
B. Cass and e. P. Clark, directors OF
tbe ipstitutiOn

Mrs. Housh orefaced her action with
brief remarks, reflecting upon the
great pleasure 1t gave her to see this
ideal realized, and to imagine the Won
derful blessing this building will prove
to Los Angeles later in its career. She

scheme of the proposed erection or
groups of buildings which shall even
tually make Agricultural park per-
manent exposition ground. This plan
is now to be carried out by the board
of county supervisors. Concluding her
remarks, Mrs. Housh said:
"In the presence of these worthy rep
resentatives of a great and splendid
people and for US all 1 turn this bit of
earth, realizing that henceforth this
section of the park will be to us as
consecrated ground. For our hearts are
in our work, and in spirit we shall be
lingering about the place. And now
you all, I am sure, will ask the bless
ing of heaven as we face the sunrise
of q new day."
Members of the board Of governors
who were present were President Will
liam Bowen, C. j. Nellis, chairman of
the board of supervisors; J. NJ. Quinn,
representing the Southern California
Historical society; w. A. Spaulding OF
the Southern California Academy of
Sciences; Robertson of the Cooper

given to the uses of these societies
for fifty years, the county agreeing to
furnish 1t and to provide a caretaker
for it.

the ground yesterday blocking out the
place where the new building will
stand, and excavating for the edifice
will be begun at once.

TEN DAYS IN PRISON

ance," was the only testimony that
could be elected from Mrs. Jessie Car
roll, the complaining witness against
Mrs. Pearl Moore on a charge of dis
turbing the peace in Police Judge Fred
erickson's court yesterday

nature of the disturbance, but she re-
piled with the same vague answer. the

lures off the wall, smash the windows
in the house and used blasphemous
words in the hearing of young children
