COUNCILMEN TO BE
ELECTED JUNE 30
Ordinance Passes and Date of Prnar-
les VIII Be Fixed Tuesday.
City Hall Proposal to
Be Submitted Also

An ordinance calling an election for
councilmen to fill the vacancies caused
by the designations of j. ID. Works and
Richmond Plant was passed by the
council yesterday. The date for the
election was fixed at June 30 The
primaries will be held the latter part
of May or early in June. The exact
date will be fixed Tuesday.
AS soon as the ordinance is published
it is expected that large number of
candidates who have been awaiting
action by the council will prepare their
petitions and it is estimated there will
be at least twenty candidates in the
primaries.
An ordinance was passed several
weeks ago calling an election for June
II to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Plant. When Judge
Works resigned also it was necessary
to pass another ordinance.
The proposition of selling the city
hall site in order to secure the money
to build another city hall on the
Temple block property is attached to
the ordinance adopted yesterday.

MEASURE
SIGNED BY MAYOR
NEW LICENSE ORDINANCE TO
INCREASE REVENUE
Gas and Electric Corporations Must
Pay the City Larger Share
of Their Gross
Receipts

Mayor Alexander signed the new IL
cense ordinance yesterday, and 1t will
be published Friday morning, unless
the council finds some more reasons
for recalling the ordinance for further
amendments.
This ordinance has been before the
council, in committee, for several
weeks, and represents much hard work,
especially on the part Of the members
of the legislation committee. 1t was
passed once before and sent to the
mayor, but so much complaint was
made about several of its features that
1t was recalled and returned to com
mittee.
The hardest problem to work out was
the license fee to be assessed against
the gas and electric corporations, and
this was adjusted to the satisfaction
of the council Tuesday when 1t adopted
an assessment of one-third of ! per
cent on the gross receipts. This is not
acceptable to the corporations affected,
and there have been threats of proceed
ings in court to test the validity Of
special licenses. Under the provisions
of this ordinance. If 1t becomes effect
i've. the Los Angeles Gas and Electric
corporation will have to pay about
$4,000 a year into the city treasury in
license fees. Under the old ordinance
1t pays but $2400 year.

BOYS DEATH HELD DUE
TO OWN CARELESSNESS
Mrs. Flora Sommer Fails in Suit for
Damages Against Los Angeles
Railway Company

Following the denial of non-suit
in the action of Mrs. Flora Sommer
against the Los Angeles Railway com
pany for 100000 damages in Judge
Bordwelrs court TuesdG'- afternoon,
the court instructed the jury to find
a verdict for the defendant yesterday
morning on the ground that the rail
way company was not responsible for
the death of the plaintiffs son. The
jury formally found in favor of the
defendant.
Mrs Sommer, who is a widow, con-
tended that the ceath of her son,
Thomas. aged II, run over by a car
was the result of recklessness and
maliciousness on the part of the mo-
torman. She declared the death of
her son had taken away her sole sup
port. as the boy was employed by
local firm as messenger.
The contention of the defense that
the boy had crossed the tracks in front
of the car in spite of the frequent
ringing of the motorman's alarm bell,
when he had the entire road to choose
from, was upheld by the court in its
instruction to the jury to find verdict
for the defendant.

WANTS HEATING
SALE TO STAND
WOULD REPUDIATE AGREE
MENT TO DISMISS APPEAL
Hamaker Syndicate Intends to Force
Decision to Higher Court in Case
Where Power Of Trustees
is Questioned

Despite a stipulation to dismiss an
appeal from Judge Rives court regard
ing the sale of a portion of the Andrew
]. w. Heating estate for $660,0O0 to a
syndicate formed by w. N. Hamaker,
further efforts to have the sale con-
firmed by the court We're made yester-
day by the syndicate.
A stipulation asking for dismiss ii
of the appeal had been sent to the
supreme court at San Francisco, but
Hamaker declares there was a mlsun-
derstanding regarding the matter, and
yesterday he telegraphed the clerk of
the supreme court asking that the ap-
peal stand as 1t was before the stipu-
lation was made.
The confirmation of the sale of the
property was refused by Judge Rive ;
on the ground that as the youngest of
the heirs became of age last December
the power of the trustees of the estate
to arrange the sale had become void
The Hamaker syndicate, however, IN
tends to force the decision to higher
court for an opinion, although it was
believed up to yesterday that they
would let the matter drop.
Another move in the Heating case
was the transferring of the suit Of
Mrs. Minnie Abbott Smith for divorce
from Isaiah II. Smith by Judge Hutton
to Judge Monroe's court yesterday.
Smith married Isabel Keating, widow
of Andrew j. w. Keating She died
and he married again. In the me m
time Mrs. Minnie A. Smith claims to
be his wife by a marriage ceremony
performed many years ago, which, If
proved, will render null and void
Smiths later marriages.
Smith claims that his marriage to
ATrG Minnie Smith wa a 'fjOl<p' Other
heirs of the estate, however, have filed
suit against him to recover 100000 he
secured from the Keating estate, on
the ground that he had no legal right
to it in view of his alleged first mar

While Gregory Has Place
on Nine Boards

has rearranged committees so that they
will not have to work short-handed,
as has been the case since Judge

working with only two members, and
under these circumstances a committee
report had to be unanimous, as the
council rules require that two members
must sign a report before the council
can receive 1t.
Under the new committee arrange
ment Councilman Andrews is the busi-
est man in the council. He is a MEM
ber on eleven Of the fourteen commit
tees. Councilman Gregory is only a
little way behind. as he drew nine COM
mittee memberships AS soon as two
councilmen are elected to fill the va
cancies they will be appointed to COM
mittees. and Andrews and Gregory re-
lieved to some extent.

Because of this wide gap there is no
way of approaching the bridge from
the east, and it is seriously interfering
