PUGNACIOUS LAUNDRY MAN
is FINED FOR ASSAULT
Rescued by Friends from Long
Stay in Jail

W. F. Mowser was willing to pay a
nominal sum for taking a poke" at
Carl w. Formulas, when he visited
the district attorneys office yesterday
morning, but when he faced Police
Judge Rose a few mintes later he
quickly changed his mind after he had
been fined $25.
Formulas and Mowrer are both en-
ployed as drivers by laundry COM
pany and for some time have displayed
a bitter enmity toward each other,
which eliminated Wednesday when
Mowrer proceeded to use his fists.
"Ho do you plead to this charger
he was asked by Judge Rose.
"Well, I hit him, judge, but don't
know how to plead" he replied with
an air of satisfaction. Formulas then
graphically told of how Mowser ap-
preached him and struck him several
times, knocking him to the floor and
then jumping on him.
twenty-five dollars or twenty-five
days in the city JAIL" was the quick
decision of Judge Rose.
"But-er-Judge," stammered Now
rer, as he remembered he did not have
a cent with him and saw the alterna-
tive of twenty-five days staring him In
the face.
Formhals then tried to explain to the
court that Mowrer might retaliate if
he was allowed to go free, but failed
in the attempt.
Mowrer bowed his head as he sat
waiting in the prisoners dock unutil
friends came to his rescue with the
necessary cash to save him from Serv-
ing the Jail sentence.

was arrested by Detective Murray in
connection withA a forgery case, made

and 1t was not until yesterday that the
facts of the escape became generally
known.
A. c. Dodge, chief probation officer,
stated yesterday that the boy was in
charge of the court officers at the
time. Louis Strohm, bailiff in Judge
Wilbur's department, stated that Todh
was in charge of a deputy from the
probation office at the time he es-
capped.
The lad was arrested May % and was
booked on a charge of vagrancy, for
the officers wished him detained in
order that they could use him as a wit
ness against prisoner charged with
forgery. This prisoner is accused of
forcing the boy to cash several forged
checks.
AS Todh was under age, he was
taken before Judge Wilbur to answer
to the vagrancy charge, and the court
set his hearing for June 6. AS Thurs
day was the date set, Todh was not
produced in court and the story Of his
disappearance leaked out. Todh was
brought to court by deputy proba-
ton officer. and it is customary for
the same officer to account for his
prisoner.

SANTA FE CUTS EXPRESS
RATES ON ARIZONA FRUIT

Express rates on Arizona fruit and
produce have been reduced. following
the opening of the Santa Fe's Parker
cutoff. This is made possible by the
shorter haul.
Merchants of the towns benefited are
situated in a n-competitive territory,
but they have long contended that the
rates from Los Angeles were too high,
and the reduction is the result. Some
of the new rates follow:
Fruit, per 100 pounds, to Ash Fork,
was $3.50, now $3.50.
A reduction of the same proportion
has been made in the rate to Flagstaff,
Kingman. Seligman, Williams and
WinsloW.
The charges to Phoenix, both on fruit
and vegetables, were $2.75. Now they
are $3.50.
To the Grand canyon, as well as to
Chloride, Clifton, Holbrook and Peach
Springs similar reductions have been
made.

NOTE SAYS IT Is SUICIDE
Drinks Poison While Owners of
Residence Are on a Visit
at Avalon
NOTE SAYS IT is SUICIDE

To Whom It May Concern:
This is a plain suicide. 1 shall
take either strychnine or chloro-
form, therefore an autopsy Is not
necessary. Bury me as 1 am. My
curse shall follow the doctor that
uses my body for any purpose
whatsoever.
PAUL MULLENOUX.
When Mr. and Mrs. John Carse of
121 North Wilson street, Alhambra, re-
turned from Avalon, Catalina, Wednes-
day night at o'clock, they found In
their home the dead body of their
hired man, Paul Mullenoux. He had
killed himself by taking strychnlne and
chloroform after writing and putting
in one of the pockets the melancholy
note which calls down curse on the
surgeon who shall mutilate his body.
AS soon as the frightened couple re-
covered from the shock Of their dis
covery they notified the city marshal
of Alhambra. He Investigated and dis
covered that the man had been dead
at least a day. 1t is believed he took
the poison Tuesday. The body was re-
moved to an undertaking establishment
In Alhambra and the coroner notified.
Mullenoux had been in the employ
of the CarSes about a year. Lately he
had been drinking. A search of his
clothes revealed three bottles One
contained strychnine, another cloro-
form and the third whisky. All were
about half full.
The only relatives the dead man is
known to have left are a sister, who
is In a convent in Albuquerque, and a
brother, Edward Mullenoux, who is
working on a railroad out Of Chicago.
The sister had not written to her
brother for years, as she had taken
what is called the "black VEIL" which
removes her from all association with
the world and her relatives.
The body probably will be brought
to Los Angeles this afternoon and de-
livered to the coroner.
