CITY TRUSTEES ACCEPT NEW BOILER Object to Its Front. Which Is Not Ornamental, but Question Arises Whether Contractors Could Be Made to Change It. The City Trustees, at their meeting on Tuesday evening, finally ordered a conditional acceptance of the new boiler installed at the power-house by the Parke & Lacy company of San Francisco. The boiler had that day been put to a test of 100 pounds steam pressure, although a later inspection of the specifications revealed the fact that the test should be 125 pounds. This test, it was announced by Mr. Miller of San Francisco, who represented the contractors, would immediately be made. The boiler seems to be an excellent one, of the horizontal tubular pattern, and cost $2,049. Parke & Lacy were the lowest of a half dozen bidders. One or two minor defects, such as faulty stop-cocks, and the front, which bears the name of the contractors in large letters, were objected to, but the stop-cocks were replaced by others, and, according to the specifications, it seemed doubtful whether the city could compel the contractors to change it to "an ornamental front," as called for. Clerk Merritt read the following correspondence bearing on the subject: ANAHEIM, Cal., Nov. 12, 1901. PARKE & LACY CO., San Francisco, Cal., Gentlemen:—Your letters of the 28th of October and 6th inst., in the matter of the boiler now being constructed by you for this city, were read tonight at a meeting of the Board of Trustees, and I was directed to reply thereto. It is the sense of the members of the board that if you will agree to furnish proper gauge cocks and place proper doors on the boiler, they will accept your work, except as to the ornamental front which the contract calls for, and which you have failed to put in, and waive all questions which might otherwise arise between us as to damages for the delay in completing said work. The gauge cocks have been emphatically condemned by Mr. Malone, the boiler inspector, and the doors are conceded to be defective by your agent, Mr. Miller, and there can be no reasonable objection which can be made by you to making these changes. Yours truly, EDWARD B. MERRITT. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 15, 1901. EDWARD B. MERRITT, City Clerk, City of Anaheim, Anaheim, Cal.; Dear change the front would not cost us 25 cents more, except for freight on iron weight to Pittsburgh and back. You have a good front; you have a good boiler; you have an excellent job, at a very low figure. Helmsen—Schneider informs us the boiler is spoiled by its front. Schneider (to Miller)—Do not the specifications say that the engineer in charge was to have been consulted regarding point at issue? Miller—You were not in charge at the time the boiler was installed, nor was there any other engineer in charge at that time. Schneider—Then you ought to have waited until one was appointed. Miller—We could never have completed the work of installing the boiler on contract time if we had waited for you to be appointed. Miller, continuing, said his company had made no money on the boiler. The city had got a boiler $300 cheaper than any other firm had offered to install it. The city had got full value received. Weisel said he had no doubt the boiler was a good one, but said when the city bought a thing it expected to get what it bargained for. The front was not such as the city desired. Schneider—If the engineer at the power house had been consulted about it, that front would never have been put in. The board discussed the matter at length, and finally decided to accept it conditionally, it being of the opinion the boiler was a good one, and that a good job had been done in installing it. The acceptance is conditioned upon a test of 125 pounds, and the final approval by the boiler inspector of the insurance company. Engineer Lewis was telephoned for and on his arrival the board discussed with him the matter of procuring new electric arcs. The matter was left to the Finance committee. The board had earlier in the evening refused to raise Lewis' salary, as electrical engineer, from $80 to $100 per month, and had also declined to change rules at present in force at the power house. A change had been requested by Lewis at a former meeting. The rules now permit one of the two men employed to leave the works at 9 o'clock each evening alternately. This, Lewis holds, is not advisable, as both men are needed until 10 o'clock. There appears to be a modicum of friction between the two engineers. ITEMS ROUNDABOUT TOWN Sanitarium. Dr. Watson of New York, who for years conducted a sanitarium on the banks of the Hudson, but has disposed of the property and come to Southern California, was in town on Monday from Los Angeles, in consultation with members of the Chamber of Commerce relative to a projected sanitarium to be established here. The offer made the Battle Creek people involving the DeCampo property, holds good, but if any other site should be selected by them Dr. Watson will likely return and take the matter up. He is looking for a location, and considers Orange the gem county of the state. He was very favorably impressed with Anaheim and its surroundings. Should the Battle Creek people decide to go elsewhere, probably arrangements could be made with him which might be of mutual advantage to both the community and himself. Bad Ben Briggs. Ben Briggs, an employee of the Santa Fe oil wells, was placed under arrest by Marshal Steadman on Sunday afternoon, charged with using obscene language and disturbing the peace. Briggs was under the influence of liquor, and with a party of companions succeeded in violating more ordinances during the afternoon than all other offenders put together since last crop of hoboes came to town. After languishing in jail for a few hours, friends succeeded in bailing him out. Judge Shanley released him on $10 cash bail, his friends declaring that he had to go to work at midnight, failing to do which he would be discharged. Briggs failed to appear on Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and his bail was declared forfeited. He is said to have a wife and three children. After being liberated he set out for the wells considerably sobered up for his short confinement in the calaboose. Olinda Richmond. J. Hahn has been in Pasadena for some weeks past engaged in selling thoroughbred horses to wealthy easterners sojourning at that place. Some days ago he sold his horse Olinda Richmond to an eastern gentlemen for $500. This horse has a record of 2:16¼; and has stepped around the track in 2:06; going half in 1:03. Hahn says he once beat Willets driving Silkwood EDWARD B. MERRITT. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 15, 1901. EDWARD B. MERRITT, City Clerk, City of Anaheim, Anaheim, Cal.; Dear Sir:—We have your favor of the 12th inst. and infer from same that if we supply gauge cocks and doors for the boiler which will meet with the approval of your engineer, your honorable board will consider that our contract has been fulfilled. If this understanding is correct, please wire us at our expense on receipt of this letter, and we will make the necessary changes at once. Thanking you for the courtesy your board has shown us we are, your truly, PARKE & LACY CO. ANAHIM, Cal., Nov. 18, 1901. PARKE & LACY CO., San Francisco, Cal.; Gentlemen:—The letter of the 15th inst. to the City Clerk has been handed to me for reply. A reference to the communication of the 12th inst., sent to you by the Clerk, will show that in addition to requiring you to remedy the gauge cocks and doors, mentioned therein as being defective, it is contemplated that some adjustment be had between you and the board of trustees for your failure to supply the ornamental front called for by the contract, before the board will consider the contract as fulfilled. Yours truly, RICHARD MELROSE, City Attorney. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 21, 1901. RICHARD MELROSE, City Attorney, Anaheim, Cal.; Dear SIR:—Replying to your favor of the 18th inst., will say that we have looked over the specifications very carefully and cannot find in what particular the front we supplied does not comply therewith. Before the front was determined upon the factory wrote us to know whether style "D" or "E" on page 22 of the catalogue we send you would answer the requirements. We called upon the inspector of the Hartford Insurance Co., and he stated that style "D" would comply with the specifications if we would place a 2½ "hole in the center of the front 9" above the doors. This, you will note, was done. Furthermore, we think in justice to us a complaint in regard to the front should have been made immediately upon its arrival at Anaheim. The only complaint that we heard made was that our name, instead of the name of the City of Anaheim, was cast on the top of the front. We have had no instructions from you to do otherwise, nor do your specifications require your name on the boiler. We have endeavored to execute this contract in the very best of faith, and hope that you will treat us in the same spirit. Mr. D. Redit has instructions from us to arrange the doors to suit your engineer, and we will send him the new gauge cocks asked for at once. Hoping you will see fit to advise your honorable board to accept the boiler when these changes are made, we are, yours truly, PARKE & LACY CO. At the conclusion of reading the correspondence, the board fell into a deep brown study. Helmsen—I wish Engineer Schneider was here (Turning to the Clerk.) Will you please telephone the power-house electric area. The master was left for the Finance committee. The board had earlier in the evening refused to raise Lewis' salary, as electrical engineer, from $80 to $100 per month, and had also declined to change rules at present in force at the power house. A change had been requested by Lewis at a former meeting. The rules now permit one of the two men employed to leave the works at 9 o'clock each evening alternately. This, Lewis holds, is not advisable, as both men are needed until 10 o'clock. There appears to be a modicum of friction between the two engineers. On motion of Trustee Schneider, the engineers at power house were instructed to measure the pipes needing asbestos covering, and to furnish same to clerk, he to procure prices. Contract with C. E. Lapp & Co., for ten cars of fuel oil, f. o. b. Olinda, at 53 cents per barrel of 42 gallons. Signed. The city's former contract with Senator Bulla's Central Oil company was at a rate of $1 per barrel. Recorder Shanley submitted his report showing collections of $10 fines during the month; fees, $3; balance in treasury. Trustee Schneider of the Public Improvement committee, reported 190 feet of two-inch pipe had been laid to the residence of Carlos Corona, and that all the city teams are engaged in hauling gravel. Trustee Dickel, chairman of the Ordinance committee, was not present, and the ordinance raising saloon license was not introduced. Trustee Weisel of the committee asked for further time, which was granted. On motion of Schneider, city water was ordered analyzed. Samples were ordered sent to Berkley, and the Deerboun Drug and Chemical company of Chicago for such purpose. Marshal Steadman reported placing ing drainage pipe at the intersection of Center and Lemon streets; also crosswalks across Center at Olive and Philadelphia. Bills to the extent of $8, for labor, were ordered paid. Needham on Deck. Representative Needham of California, who reached Washington a few days ago, has had his first talk with the President and is much pleased over the result of it. The President told Needham that he not only is in favor of the re-enactment of the Geary Chinese exclusion law, but he strongly favors some additions to it that will make it more effective than it is at present. He also told Needham that he thought that there were two or three weak spots in the bill that ought to be strengthened, and said he proposed to recommend in his message that these spots be strengthened and the old law re-enacted. Needham thinks that with this sort of backing from the White House, there is no question about what Congress will do as to Chinese exclusion. Upon the question of reciprocity, Needham got the distinct impression from the President that nobody in California need worry that his business wife and three children. After being liberated he set out for the wells considerably sobered up for his short confinement in the calaboose. Olinda Kichmond. J. Hahn has been in Pasadena for some weeks past engaged in selling thoroughbred horses to wealthy easterners sojourning at that place. Some days ago he sold his horse Olinda Richmond to an eastern gentlemen for $500. This horse has a record of 2:16¹ and has stepped around the track in 2:06 going half in 1:03. Hahn says he once beat Willets driving Silkwood the half mile, and Silkwood was then thought to be a world beater. Olinda Richmond will be shipped to Cleveland within a few days. Hahn was in town on Monday, but returned to Pasadena the following day. He says tourists are flocking in to that town at a rapid rate. He expects to sell his team of blacks, which is one of the finest teams in the county. Sugar Beets. Senator Jones has made contracts for 4,000 acres to be planted to sugar beets, and seeding operations begin early in December. This early planting will be an unusual experience to beet growers, inasmuch as the planting season formerly began in February or March. Early planting is for the purpose of giving beets the benefit of the December and January rains. Senator Jones is desirous of securing additional contracts to the extent of one or two thousand acres. Seed will arrive and be distributed in a fortnight. Extra Trains. Agent Darling has three extra gravel trains on his hands, and has scarce time to get to his meals. The Southern Pacific Company is double-tracking between San Pedro and Florence, and will be hauling gravel through here for three months. H. E. Huntington passed through town one day last week, going to Los Alamitos, and driving across country through the Peatlands to Santa Ana. He returned north on the afternoon train. It is believed the new year will see extensive railroad building in this section, both electric and steam. Woodmen. Anaheim Camp, No. 1236, Modern Woodmen of America, with twenty-four accepted members, was organized Saturday night at I. O. O. F. hall by Deputy Head Consul V. W. Van Antwerp, assisted by District Deputy J. E. Simons of Riverside. Officers installed for ensuing term: Frank Eastman, V. C.: George Nelson, W. A.; Joseph S Hatfield, banker; E.W McCollum, clerk. Work was exemplified by a team from Westminster Camp. SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKERS. The Orange County Sunday School Association met some days ago at Santa Ana and elected the following officers: Dr. W.B. Wood, Orange president; J.H.Clabaugh, Anaheim first vice-president; Mra.D.W.Hasson,Buena Park, second vice-president; U.Sid Lemon secretary; A.N.Rankle,treasurer. THANKSGIVING SERVICES. Union Thanksgiving services will be have endeavored to execute this contract in the very best of faith, and hope that you will treat us in the same spirit. Mr. D. Redit has instructions from us to arrange the doors to suit your engineer, and we will send him the new gauge cocks asked for at once. Hoping you will see fit to advise your honorable board to accept the boiler when these changes are made, we are, yours truly, Park & Lacy Co. At the conclusion of reading the correspondence, the board fell into a deep brown study. Helmsen—I wish Engineer Schneider was here. (Turning to the Clerk.) Will you please telephone the power-house and have him come up. Merritt goes to the telephone and rings up power-house, getting ear of Engineer Lewis—Hello, Arthur; we’d like to have Schneider come up to the meeting. Hello! Can’t you hear me? We want Schneider—yes, Schneider—to come up to meeting. Yes. Tell him to come right up. In ten minutes Schneider climbed up the City Hall stairway. Helmsen—Schneider, we have been waiting for you. We have a report here from Mr. Redit, that the new boiler was put to a test of 100 pounds pressure today. Schneider—That is correct. Helmsen—Does the boiler come up to your expectations as a first-class boiler? Schneider—With the exception of the front, yes, sir. Helmsen—Have you received the new gauge cocks? Schneider—Yes, sir: Mr. Miller here arose and said the boiler had been put to 100 pounds pressure that day, according to terms of agreement. Fay—The specifications call for a test of 125 pounds pressure. Miller said that if the specifications called for that pressure he would have the test made the following day. Schneider gaked Miller why his company did not put in a “full ornamental front,” as called for by the specifications. Miller—the specifications do not say what would be regarded as a full ornamental front. The front might be regarded as an ornamental front with the name “Park & Lacy” upon it. To more effective than it is at present. He also told Needham that he thought that there were two or three weak spots in the bill that ought to be strengthened, and said he proposed to recommend in his message that these spots be strengthened and the old law re-enacted. Needham thinks that with this sort of backing from the White House, there is no question about what Congress will do as to Chinese exclusion. Upon the question of reciprocity, Needham got the distinct impression from the President that nobody in California need worry that his business would be knocked sky-high by reciprocity during the next few years. The President realizes that in reciprocity he has a big question to handle, and he will not permit himself, by early or hasty action, to place any American industry in jeopardy. Eastern Star. At a regular meeting of Chispa Chapter, No. 151, O. E. S., held Monday evening, Nov. 18, 1901, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Mrs. E. H.

No report from any member of the Cabinet contains more information of direct importance to California than the report of Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, which has just been made public in Washington. In brief, touching California's interests, Secretary Wilson says: "In order to open up additional markets for fruit and bring better methods of harvesting, packing, storing and shipping the same, a small fund was secured for the present fiscal year, and the results accomplished with this encourage the belief that there are great possibilities for American fruit abroad. Trial shipments of fruits have been inaugurated with such encouraging results that it is believed the work will be undertaken next year on a commercial scale by private interests. With the unrivaled facilities that America possesses for growing the finest fruits, and with a clear understanding as to the proper methods of handling, there is no reason why a fine foreign trade should not be developed." "The prune industry of the Western States has grown to large proportions, but, in order to compete with foreign trade, need has long been felt for better knowledge of the methods of growing and handling the crop, and the best varieties to plant. By an arrangement between pomologist and botanist, an agent was sent during the year to France to study the prune industry there. The work of this agent resulted in the discovery and introduction of several important varieties that promise to be of value on the Pacific Coast."
