RICH MEN SPLIT OVER
ALLEGED SPITE FENCE
Building of Bungalows in Fash
ionabIe District Starts
War of Capitalists

PASADENA, July 6.-"When is
fence a spite fence?" is the question
agitating the minds of residents OF
North Grand avenue on the wealthy
west side.
r. Staats, So North Grand avenue,
acting president of the Southern Cali
fornia Edison company during the alb
sence of ]. B. Miller in Europe, has
erected a fence that is so classed by
an angry neighbor. The bungalow
with the sign calling attention to the
Stats fence was erected recently by
Edward S. Crump, 35 North Grand ave-
nue., who is connected with Wads-
worth's paint store.
Crump says the fence is a spite fence.
Stats declares it is not. So there you
go. When wealth meets wealth then
comes the tug of war, and neighbors
are anxiously watching the outcome.
According to the Stats version, Crump
tried to intimidate him to buy the
tract at an enormous price when the
announcement was made some time
ago that bungalows would be erected
on the premises.
AZ built the fence as a matter OF
protection" he said last evening. "Mr.
Crump erected one of his cottages a
few feet from the sidewalk, with the
kitchen, screen porch and toilet back
ing on my front yard. I had to do
something to shut off the undesirable
view from my front windows and
porch"
According to Crump's story, he gave
his neighbor plenty of time to make
overtures to buy, but the latter never
came near him personally. Mr.. Crump
said last evening:
"When l announced that I would
have bungalows for rent on the
premises, real estate dealers came to
me with offers. 1 surmised that they
represented Mr.. Staats, and I asked
$25, 900. They offered me $4,000. I
offered to cut to $4,000. If Mr.. Stats
had come to me in person I would have
been willing to sell to him much lower
than $2S,OO0."
ROW LONG BREWING
Mr.. Crump declared further that the
Grand avenue frontage is really the
back yard" of property along that
thoroughfare, and that most of the
houses face the Arroyo Seco. He says
the two bungalows which he erected
will later form a link in a chain of
bungalows which he will build sur
rounding a court running from Grand
avenue to the arroyo, and that If the
adjoining property faced as it should
there would be no trouble.
This in brief is history of the more
recent occurrences in the struggle for
supremacy between two of Pasadena's
wealthy west siders. 1t is we'll known
that there has been considerable feel
ing over the matter for some time,
and this is not the first evidence of
dissension. The location of garages
and barns on the two properties has
had to do with former arguments, but
the climax was reached when Mr..
Crump declared that at least four GUS
toners in the neighborhood have been
lost to the Edison company, of which
Mr.. Staats is acting president, through
the erection of the fence, which not
only obstructs Mr.. Crump's view of
the mountains, but also the view from
the properties of other neighbors.

trade and who had lived at the North
Sixth street house for several years,
was attacked with heart failure and
died before aid could be summoned. At
the time he was stricken he was sitting
in chair, petting his black cat, to
which he was devoted. When the peo
Pile in the house summoned a doctor
the cat clawed and fought him. as well
as everyone who attempted to touch
the body.
The coroner's office was notified, and
when the police came to take the body
to the morgue the cat was still on
guard and spit, meowed and clawed at
the bluecoats when they tried to take
the remains.

STRIKERS ASK COURT TO
MODIFY ITS INJUNCTION

Attorneys representing the striking
metal workers filed a motion to modi-
fy the injunction recently granted on
application of the Llewellyn Iron works
in the superior court yesterday The
court Is asked to modify that portion
of the order relating to picketing. The
motion was set for hearing at o'clock
today.
1t is asserted in the motion that the
court exceeded its jurisdiction In en-
Joining the strikers from picketing, for
the reason that the complaint on
which the action was taken did not
state facts sufficient to warrant such
action.
The strikers expect to open their
summer camp in about two weeks. The

DECREE OF KAISER MAKES
ALSATIANS SPEAK GERMAN

PARIS, July 5.-The promised au-

on a strange note. A decree published
by military paper circulating in the
two provinces formally forbids the en-
ployment of the French language IN
the regiments.
"Alsatians ought" says this docu-
ment, "to make it a point of honor to
use German in their correspondence,
which is the language of their coun-
try. They ought to see to it that their
parents do the same, particularly when
they write postcards, by reason of the
bad impression this correspondence
can produce in the barracks"

farewell. The incident Is altogether
characteristic of a cult that does not
often indulge in the display of those
finer sensibilities which the life OF
the newspaperman is calculated to-
Int does not-dull, and which are too
often very close to the surface for
the reason that they are necessarily
and constantly repressed IN the
every day life of the office.
F. Earl Crawford has been LOT
twenty years identified with news
paper work in the west. He was con-
nected first with the Duluth News
then with the Superior Telegram
Later he was managing editor OF the
News Tribune of Duluth, telegraph
and managing editor OF the st. Paul
Globe and when the St. Paul News
was established in 1900 he got out the
first number. He has been with the
naper ever since, creating by his
genius a place for i: IN a field OF ita
own. For some years he was the
editorial manager of the string OF
papers known as the Glover Leaf, OF
which the News was one. He was
tremendous worker and took his
work seriously, the result being
that at the age of forty-two he is
broken man, with tubercular al
lection.
The cheerful optimism which was
part of his nature made association
with Earl Crawford thing to be de-
sired and he was and is held in af-
fectionate regard by every member
of the profession who came into
personal contact with him. He was
a brilliant writer with regard for
the conventions of the language that
made for the betterment of modern
journalism and he was clean in
thought and expression-bringing
the attributes of gentleman to the
of a newspaper. The
visit to the News Office showed that
the gentle spirit which made him low
ed was still strong after the body
that held it was broken. He goes
out to fight his battle with the De.
stroyer, an undoubted victim to the
Moloch of modern journalism. And
that he may win the fight will be the
hope of his professional contempt.

WhISkEY IS WHISKEY
and MUST Be TAGGED
nv Associated Press. !


Washington, Feb. 16.-President
Taft's decision in the liquor contro-
versy that "Whiskey is whiskey"
whether 1t be-; blended or straight,
has been formulated in a set of reg
ulations prepared by the board Of
food and drugs inspection of the de-
partment Of agriculture. The regu-
lations were completed late today
and approved, as required by the
pure food law, by Secretary Wilson
Of the department of agriculture;
Secretary McVeigh of the treasury,
and Secretary Nagel OF the depart
ment Of commerce and labor.
In brief the regulations declare
that all unmixed spirits distilled
from grain. prepared in the custo-
mary ways are entitled to the name
'ewhiskey" without qualification.
Blended whiskey must be labelled as
such. The term "Whiskey" how
ever. is restricted to distillates from
grain and under the regulations, dis
tillates from other substances If la
belled "Whiskey" are misbEauded
and the person guilty OF misbranding
may be prosecuted. All descriptive
matter on the labels must be accur-
ate and the word denoting the grade
or kind Of whiskey must be intype
as large as the word "Whiskey" it.
