WILL NOT REDUCE
CITY SALARY LIST
Supply Committee viii Report
Against Reduction of En-.
pIoyeS' Pay Envelopes
FLAMMER LOSES $25 A MONTH
Supt. Raitt Gets Increase to
$175; More Need to Raise
Than Lower. BetkouSk
FLAMMER LOSES S25 A MONTH

One unanimous sigh of relief will go
up in the city hall today when the
supply committee reports to the city
council that it cannot make any ma
terial reduction in the salaries of city
employees.
The supply committee has been work.
ing on the salary question for six or
seven months and has concluded that
the salaries paid are justifiable in most
cases. The only cut of Importance that
will be recommended is that the salary
of Paul F1ammer, captain of detectives,
be reduced from $3.50 to $225 a month.
The committee considers this justified,
as no other captain in the police de-
partment receives more than $500 a
month and the chiefs salary is only
$3.50. The chiefs salary is fixed by
charter and cannot be changed by or
dinance.
But this cut In Planners salary will
not produce any change in the city s
outlay for salaries, for c. B. Raitt,
superintendent of Fairgrounds, is in
creased from $125 to $175 month. The
playground commission urged this in
crease, as Mr.. Raitt had concluded to
resign unless he received more money.
The other salary ordinances will be
reported to the council practically as
the budget provided.
"It has been hard to keep from in
creasing salaries rather than reducing
them," said Councilman Betkouski, "a
member of the committee, yesterday
Pressure has been brought to bear on
us from heads of departments to in
crease this man and that man, and we
are convinced that we have done as
well as we could to leave most of the
salaries as they are instead of raising
some"

JUDGE REFUSES TO ORDER
RETURN OF WIFE'S CLOTHES
Mrs. King Goes to Court Before
Asking for Garments

The request of Mrs. Fanny Briggs
Carr King for a citation against her
husband, Morris Adrian King, for him
to show cause for his keeping her
clothes from her was denied yesterday
by Judge w. M. Conley of MADEIRA
county sitting in department four of
the superior court, after the woman
admitted that she had not asked her
husband to return her garments.
Mrs. King said her husband, who
manufactures the Fanny Briggs Carr
toilet preparations and from when she
is seeking a divorce, took all of her
clothes from her. with the exception
of a calico gown and a street costume.
She asserted in answer to the court
that the calico gown cost cents a
yard, and that she never had paid
more than that for a dress of that
kind.
After she had admitted that she had
not asked her husband to give her
clothes back to her, and the judge
had denied her request for him to be
cited into court to show why he had
not done so, she calculated audibly,
"Well, what do you think of that!"
That set the occupants of the court
room into a roar of laughter, which
all during her appearance on the wit
ness stand they had been repressing
with seeming difficulty.

FIRE COMMISSION WANTS
CAR ORDINANCE CHAN GED

The fire commission held a special
meeting late yesterday afternoon and
voted to ask the council to amend the
ordinance providing for the stopping of
street cars on the near side of the
crossing. The amendment desired is
that where cars turn a corner they will
stop after turning instead of before.
This amendment is intended for the
benefit of the new engine house at
Fifth street and Maple avenue, that
has come to be facetiously known as
the marble palace" which will be
placed in commission October 1. Under
the present arrangement street cars
stop directly in front Of the engine
house doors, which would be likely to
prove inconvenient in case an alarm
sounded for this engine company at
the same time a car stopped.

GARBAGE STATION CASE
SUBMITTED TO JUDGE
Refuse Removal Injunction Is Ar
gued in Court

The case of L. r. and r. Alderman,
who are seeking an Injunction from
Charles A. Alexander. holder of the
city garbage contract, for the preven-
ton of his maintaining the reloading
station at Macy and Anderson streets.
was submitted to Judge Mccormick of
the superior court yesterday
The same jurist heard arguments in
the injunction case of p. J. Durbin,
who has the contract for the removal
of garbage from several of the leading
hotels and clubs against the city.
The argument was on an order for
the city to show cause why the tenn
porary injunction rectly granted Dur
bin preventing the city from interfer-
ing with him in the collection of the
garbage should not be made perma-
nent.
Judge Mccormick continued the mat
ter for three days, at which time both
sides are ordered to cite authorities for
their contentious.

COLEGROVE COMMITTEE
URGES ACTION ON PETITION

Frank E. Wolfe and Seward Cole,
representing the transportation COM
mittee of the Colegrove board of
trade, appeared before the public utili-
ties commission yesterday morning to
find out what had become of the pc
tition filed August 8 demanding that
the franchise of the Los Angeles-Pacific
through Colegrove be declared for
feited. The committee was assured
that as Mr.. Lissner, the boards presi-
dent, had returned from his vacation,
and it would be possible for the full
board of meet, some action would soon
be taken on the petition.
The petition specifies a number of
things in which the railway has been
derelict in conforming to the terms of
its franchise, and asks that the fran
chise be revoked.
This demand is connected with the
fight to secure scent fares to Cole
grove, which is in the city limits, and
If the scent fare is granted the effort
to have the franchise revoked will prob
ably cease.

BAR BAKERY ADDITION
FROM HOME DISTRICT
Big Delegation Protests Against
Proposed Factory and
Scores Victory

BY filing the petition for the excep-
tion of lots at Sixth and Beaudry from
the residence district the legislation
committee yesterday stopped the fight
on that matter that has been waged for
the last two weeks. There seems to be
no doubt that the council will adopt
the report, for each member had de-
clared himself opposed to the proposed
exception.
Fully 100 people who live in the
neighborhood of Sixth and Beaudry or
own property there appeared before the
legislation committee yesterday to pro-
test, and from their determined faces 1t
was evident they meant business. They
did not want the Davis Standard
Bread company to enlarge its baking
plant, which the proposed exception
from the residence district was de-
signed to effect.
The district is purely residential,
built UP with homes and apartment
houses, and the bakery is the only
thing of the kind in the district. Some
of the women present declared the
bakery nuisance; that smoke and SCOT
from 1t have ruined their lace curtains
and other house furnishings and that
The noise of the machinery operating
at night and in the early morning,
when they want to sleep, Is disagree
able.
The protestants had engaged H. j.
Goudge as their attorney, and Joseph
Scott appeared as attorney for the ap-
plicants.
Mr.. Scott was the target for a num-
Der of emphatic remarks form the resi-
dents who did not want him to gain his
point for his client, but he took it good
naturedly and pleaded his cause with
all his eloquence.
The objecting property owners hope
that as the bakery will not be able to
expand 1t will move to some more suit
able locality, where 1t can build as
large bakery as it pleases.

PETITION FAVORS ALAMEDA
STREET STORM DRAIN
Council to Take Final Action on
Matter Today

The Tenth Street Improvement asso-
citation yesterday petitioned the city
council to deny the protest against the
construction of the Alameda street
storm drain. The petitioners say that
If this protest is granted it will estab-
lish a precedent that all storm drains
hereafter will have to be constructed
by bond money or general taxation.
The protest has been before the
council for several weeks, and will
come up this morning for finanl action.
AS the protest is based chiefly on the
fact that the protestants do not want
to pay the cost of the improvement,
and that the cost will not exceed $34
a ffty-foot lot for those most directly
benefited, and that the average cost
is much less than this, the council is
expected to deny the protest.
w. M. Humphreys, inspector of pub
lie works, will go before the council
and plead with that body to deny the
protest.

BREATHING EXPERT FAILS
TO GET MASSEUR'S PERMIT

A free lecture on proper breathing
was delivered to the police commission
last night by DR.. S. A. Richmond, who
told the commissioners that not one
man in the room was breathing prop
erly except himself.
DR.. Richmond, who has been in Los
Angeles a week, wanted a massage
permit, but was told that under the
rules of the commission he could not
have a permit to massage both sexes.
He declared that all the massaging he
did was to rub the abdomen while his
pupils were breathing. The commits
sion considered that it would not be
such a serious infraction of the rule
~ that was all sthe massaging to be
dome. but as the doctor had been in
the city only a week denied the appli-
cation without prejudice.

MURDER ARE ARRAIGNED
Set Dates for Trials of F. M. Bell
and Otto Schulz

Three alleged murderers, F. M. Bell,
Otto Schulz and Aaron Grafton, were
arraigned yesterday before Judge Davis
of the criminal department of the su-
perior court.
Bell, charged with the killing Of o.
P. Widaman at Artesia, will plead Fri
day. While John North, deputy dis
trict attorney, was reading the COM
plant, Bell interrupted him to ask If
his case must be tried in that court.
His lawyer, Earl Rogers, quickly said:
Never mind, Mr.. Bell; I'll attend to
that matter" 1t is understood Bell is
opposed to his trial being conducted be-
fore Judge Davis, as he was once tried
in that jurist's court on a perjury
charge.
Otto Schulz, who confessed to the
police that he killed his brothers BEN
efactor, Mrs. F. Finke. Schulz-Cas-
tine, at Lancaster, will enter his plea

NEW THEATER IS GIVEN
A TEMPORARY PERMIT

Mayor Alexander yesterday issued a
temporary permit for the opening of
Pantages theater on Broadway, near
Mercantile place. The permit was
necessary, as the theater could not
have opened it's doors without it, al
though through no fault of its own.
The building ordinance requires six
inch water connection to a theater.
The theater had made application to
the water board for the permit to con-
meet the six-inch pipe, but action on the
permit had been delayed. It is expected
the permit will be granted and the con-
nection made today. Meanwhile a two
inch pipe is doing service, so the thea
ter is not without fire protection.

3 YEARS TO SAN QUENTIN

"You are bad citizen, and you did
not deserve probation when it was first
given you" so Judge Davis of the
criminal department of the superior
court told Frank Wilson yesterday, in
sentencing him to serve three years in
