He left many valuable suggestion for the committee to be appointed. "I cannot see," stated Mr. Kelly, "how any one in the Anaheim district can refuse to cooperate with the plans the local finance committee has set forth. If they do, they are unreasonable, to pay the least." Mr. Kelly who has not visited Anaheim for some years, marveled at the scope and value of the development of this neighborhood. The captains in charge of the outside districts are slowly rounding up their territories, and are meeting with good success, generally. Today Messrs. Eygabread and Praser are in Los Angeles, seeing the few remaining corporations which have not yet signified their approval of the subscriptions against their interests here. There are only two of these. All the others have signified approval through the proper official. The A. T. & S. F. R. R. will, it is said, accept the assessment placed against them in the form of a letter to be sent to the Chamber of Commerce. It is understood the Union Pacific System is getting similar permission from its head office in Omaha, and that they will send their engineer to estimate the expense and study the tentative plans shortly. An estimate formed last night by Chairman Eygabread of the Finance Committee indicates that within a week the goal will be in sight: A mass meeting will then be called and the subscribers present will appoint a committee and adopt plans for beginning the work at the earliest possible date. It is hoped to have engineers of the several corporations named, at this meeting so that their advice can be given in the hearing of all present. L. A.

PRESSEL MURT WHEN MULES RUN AWAY Fred Pressel, of 403 East Broadway, is confined to his home with severe injuries sustained when a team of mules he was driving ran away, throwing him to the ground. Mr. Pressel had been doing some work on his acreage, having hired the mules from Dr. G. W. Closson. The mules became frightened and ran along Clementine-st to Chartres, where they turned so suddenly that Mr. Pressel was unsecured and thrown with violence against the curbing. He was picked up in an unconscious condition and taken to his home where Driver Declares Racing Makes Him Incapable of Judging Speed Roscoe Sarles, who has captured cash and medals for his automobile racing ability all over the world, raced himself into Justice Cox's Santa Ana court today, charged with "stepping on it" to the tune of 75 miles an hour. Sarles, who thinks nothing of 115 miles an hour on the Los Angeles speedway, told the officers who arrested him that he did not consider he was doing anything more than loafing. "Why this car," he is reported to have said, "was only crawling along. If you want to see what real speeding is, just get in and I'll open her up for you." But the arresting officers are said to have declined with thanks. As a defense, when his case came up before Justice Cox this morning, Sarles made the representation that he was in a hurry to reach his destination and that continued fast driving on race courses has made him incapable of judging speed. He did not think, he said, that the rate at which he was traveling was excessive. When arrested Sarles was on his way south from Los Angeles on a hunting trip. He had a man and woman with him in the machine, which was a Duesenberg-motored Roamer. KEEPING TAB ON ANAHEIM SEWAGE City Manager O. E. Steward can now follow the tides of Anaheim with the installation of a Leitz water register on the wier at the outlet of the sewer farm, he announced today. The record is being kept to obtain a line on Anaheim's sewage disposal for use in affecting arrangements with Santa Ana for a joint outfall sewer to the ocean. A float that rests in the sewer turns a cylinder back and forth, a pen drawing a line upon charted paper about the cylinder. By this means an accurate line upon the volume of sewage can be obtained. The charts provide for a week's record. According to the first week's record, the high peak of the sewage cones about 2 p.m. Steward estimates it takes four hours for the sewage to reach the sewer farm from down town. The highest peak of the week is on Monday—wash day—while Saturday night—bath night—also turns the cylinder around rather far.

MUTUAL FRANCHISE News of the affirmation by the state supreme court of the decision of the superior court of Orange-co that the Orange-co Farmers' and Merchants' Assn. has a legal right to the county highways for telephone lines was received today by Horace C. Head of Santa Ana, attorney for the association. A meeting of the board of directors, which is headed by Charles A. Eygabroad, is expected soon. According to another director, H. A.

See the local office of the Auto which is headed by Charles soon. According to another director, H. A. Lake, of Garden Grove, it is doubtful if the original plan of organizing a mutual telephone company will be adhered to, because businessmen are not inclined at present to put their funds into mutual companies of this sort and the Farm Bureau is discussing the plan of organizing farmers' local exchanges. By means of the latter, it is estimated that costs could be cut to a level of 58c per month. A test suit was brot by Charles Knowlton of Fullerton against the association, who charged that the association under a county franchise was unnurping the use of highways. Superior Judge R. Y. Williams declared that the association was not of the profit-making type and did not come under the law. It is this decision that has just been affirmed. Besides Eygabroad and Lake the directors are H. H. Hale of Placentia; L. B. Drake of Fullerton; H. B. Woodrough of Costa Mesa, who is secretary; W. M. Belding of Tustin and H. C. Head of Santa Ana. At first a mutual telephone company was planned, but the secretary of state refused a franchise. Then the present association was started. BIG GUNS SHAKE EARTH LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18.—While the new dreadnaught California flagship of the Pacific fleet, maneuvered off Catalina island today in "short range director fire" of her heavy 14-inch guns, scientists made a careful check of weather conditions to account for the unusual effects resulting when four dreadnaughts engaged in target practice. Concussions caused by the firing of five-inch guns of the New Mexico, Idaho, Pennsylvania and Tennessee in torpedo defense practice caused many persons last evening to believe there had been a slight earth shock. A careful check showed the "shocks" occurred just about the time the eight salvos were fired by the dreadnaughts. But today when a check was made officers of the fleet announced that batteries of five-inch guns were all that had been fired in the night practice and the earth shook at San Bernardino, 60 miles inland. However, it was pointed out that there was hardly any wind and that a mist hung over the coast as the firing was in progress. Because of the unusual weather conditions, it was stated, the sharp penetrating reports of the lighter guns carried for many miles. The earth shaking described as a freak of nature largely due to abnormal weather conditions. "It must have been more the sound of the guns, rather than the shake of the ground that attracted attention during the practice," one naval officer stated today. It was pointed out that the heavy 14-inch guns cause more concussion and that the shock usually is distinctly felt in San Pedro and other nearby places. The "short-range" practice of the California today was at targets towed a distance of 12,000 yards. The flagship left the harbor at 7:30 a.m. today for the drill grounds off Catalina. While San Pedro felt the shock caused by the firing of the heavy guns of the California during the morning, residents reported they were aroused by last night's practice that so distinctly was "felt" at more distant points.

FOUR JAPS HURT IN UPSET Four Japanese were brot to the Anaheim sanitarium this afternoon after having been painfully injured when their Ford car overturned on the Los Angeles highway near the railroad tracks just north of Buena Park about one o'clock today. They were thrown by the roadside into a pile. It is that their car either collided or swerved to keep from colliding with the car of O. V. Kline of Los Angeles. A truck standing by the roadside may have confused them also. Mr. Kline stated that he could find no evidence of where their car had collided with his, and that he knew nothing of the accident until he looked back, and the truck man was waving to him. He went back and found the Japs all in a pile, bleeding from various lacerations. He gave as his opinion that they had become confused and swerved too quickly, overturning the car onto the rough ground. One of the Japanese was hurt seriously, having a broken jaw and numerous bruises and lacerations. It was stated at the hospital that an x-ray picture would be taken to determine the extent of his injuries. The extent of the injuries of the others has not been determined, but it is that there were no bones broken, the practically all suffered lacerations, and all of them were painfully bruised. One of the Japs, S. Senseukida, is said to live on Route I, Anaheim. One was named Nurata and the place of his residence was not given. The other two were: K. I. Inauye of Redondo Beach and N. Akutagawa of Uplands. Merchants' Noon day dinner, 11:30 to 2 50c. Every day except Sunday. California Confectionery, next to new California Theatre.
