CITY TRUSTEES TALK SEWERS Secretary Walker of Chamber of Commerce Presents Subject for Solons' Consideration, and Dwells Upon Its Importance—Minor Matters Sewers were discussed by the city trustees at the meeting on Thursday evening, when Secretary Walker of the chamber of commerce, following instructions from that body, addressed them at length upon the subject. Mr. Walker said the chamber of commerce had during the year considered the matter of street paving, but had met with the objection on the part of a number of taxpayers who held sewers should be constructed first. The chamber had after careful consideration decided to urge the construction of a sewer system first, and had procured data from other Southern California towns upon the subject. He said the present seemed an opportune time for purchasing land for a sewer farm, and dwelt upon the needs of this growing community, holding that sewers should engage the earnest attention of the board. There were present Trustees Stock, Fiscus, Kroeger and Darling. In the absence of Mayor Rust, who was detained at home by a sprained ankle, Trustee Stock presided.

There were present Trustees Stock, Fiscus, Kroeger and Darling. In the absence of Mayor Rust, who was detained at home by a sprained ankle, Trustee Stock presided. Fiscus was of opinion the porous nature of the soil hereabout was such that sewers were unnecessary. The character of the soil made filtration easy, yet water for domestic use, being raised from a greater depth, was not contaminated. Stock sidestepped the motion of having the added responsibilities of caring for a sewer farm thrust upon him. The subject went over for further consideration. A complaint from a number of citizens living on South Los Angeles street to the unsanitary condition of a cesspool in their neighborhood fitted well into the sewer question. This vault had caved in, was in foul condition and threatened disease. The clerk was notified to bring the matter to the attention of the health officer, who will be instructed to take immediate steps to abate the nuisance. The Marshal reported the following collections for November: Water $411.65, license $523, lights $881.95; total $1816.60. Delinquents collected: Water $35.85, lights $37.95; total $73.80.

Dun & Co.'s monthly of trade and crop conditions Southern California says in p The acute stage of the crisis is past and the readjustment with us. People realize the worst is over, that the year wealth from abundant crops greater than ever before; no of their being moved on usual basis; that there are just a people to be fed and close there were a few months ago an export demand greater than It has been demonstrated that not a question of how much there is, but the general conditions that permits its thy operation. Yet when all actions seem to demand more normal activity, there is a tion to halt in every line of in to wait to see more clearly taking a step forward in any prise. This attitude of course is cive to just that business so that is feared. This policy mercantile world springs fear of present or future concern but the fact that the money ency has put a stop to add the price of commodities and is a tendency to lower pricing buying only for present This attitude is felt in every try.

The superintendent of streets reported water connection made and that Claudina street was being graded between Broadway and Santa Ana streets. The finance committee audited bills amounting to $5021.51. Of this amount $2300 was for new machinery, $1650.90 for demands on general fund and $1628.50 for interest and sinking fund. The Southern Pacific and Santa Fe railroad companies, which are first cousins, quoted rates of 55 cents per ton from Los Nietos to this city.

Schindler & Son asked that the clerk be instructed to issue warrant to them in the amount of $1437.50 for work at new powerhouse, on expiration of legal time for accepting the building. So ordered. H. Kuebler was given permission to move a frame building on Char-tres street, between Los Angeles and Lemon, outside city limits. Applications for position of night-watchman were received from L. P. Dunlap and A. R. Dunham. Laid over for future consideration. The marshal recommended that the city dumping grounds should be fenced and the gate locked. He reported that as soon as the ground is cleaned off and a gravel pit started, some one will come along and dump LOOKS GOOD TO JIM HILL Says Railroads Are Inadequate to Handle Traffic, and Country Must Have Waterways A notable feature of the rivers and harbors congress session at Washington the other day, was the address delivered by James J. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railroad company. Mr. Hill created great enthusiasm among the 2500 delegates by declaring that the railroad of the country would support cordiality any proper plan for the development of legitimate waterways of the United States. He produced figures to show that the traffic of the country had become so great and was increasing so tremendously that it was beyond the physical power of the railroads to handle it. He made a most important and significant statement of the attitude of the railroad men toward legislation which has been carried against rail carriers in America, and declared that all the railroads asked was permission to conduct their business in a proper way, under fair regulations and fair laws. He said it was a canal which had made the city of Duluth the third largest port in America. "It follows," he said, "that we must prepare to utilize the waterways of the country as common carriers, and to this end one of the projects that we must see carried to a conclusion, is that of a channel from St. Louis to New Or- Men's Trade Review Men & Co.'s monthly review of crop conditions in California says in part: The stage of the financial and the readjustment is people realize that the ever, that the year's new from abundant crops is ever before; no doubt being moved on usual credit there are just as many be fed and clothed as a few months ago, and demand greater than ever.

Bean this year was retarded by conditions, but heavy the last of November in way, under fair regulations and fair laws. He said it was a canal which had made the city of Duluth the third largest port in America. "It follows," he said, "that we must prepare to utilize the waterways of the country as common carriers, and to this end one of the projects that we must see carried to a conclusion, is that of a channel from St. Louis to New Orleans of at least a depth of fifteen feet, and eighteen feet would be twice as good. While the traffic of this country is increasing at the rate of 12 per cent. annually, the ability of the carriers of that traffic is increasing only 2½ per cent. per year. It would be better for us to build immediately 75,000 miles of new railroads in order to adequately meet the traffic conditions of the country." "In seeking relief," said Mr. Hill, "we naturally must turn to the waterways of the country, and I believe they are about to emerge into an era of great usefulness." He said it would be necessary to provide a sufficient channel for the carrying of vessels of large capacity. "No craft that floats," said he, "which carries only 1000 tons, can compete with a box car, but with a craft of 10,000 tons the situation is mastered." Continuing he said: "There will be plenty of business for such waterways and railroads. The alleged jealousy of the railroads of the waterways is a myth and only a part of the yellow ideas that have been fostered in recent years. You may be assured of the hearty support of the railroads in the construction of the legitimate enterprises of the country." Governor Cummins of Iowa, in a forceful address, declared it to be evident that the United States must either stop doing business or must bring to the railroads the mighty help of the waterways of the land. The congress will conclude its work by the adoption of a series of resolutions incorporating its idea that a comprehensive scheme for the improvement of the internal waterways of the country should be crystallized into law.
