CITY COUNCIL ADDS MUCH EQUIPMENT In office only six months, city council is making a record for the purchasing of modern equipment. Tomorrow night specifications will be adopted preliminary to calling for bids on latest model fire truck, automatic street sweeper, power lawn mower for city park and oil for dirt streets. Bids will be opened on another police automobile. With the purchase of the above equipment, the present council will have bot more new equipment than has been acquired by the city in the previous four years or even longer. The council has already purchased one new car for the police department. What the acquirement of modern equipment means to the city has been demonstrated thrue the 125th power street roller purchased several months ago at a cost of $5000. Dirt streets of the city were never in better shape than at present. The street roller is something that has long been needed by the street department. Fullerton and other cities have had two fire trucks while the local fire department has been limited to one. This is regarded as dangerous practice as a power truck, the same as any other kind of truck, may go out of commission at any time. This hazard will soon be avoided, with the addition of the second truck which will cost around $12,000. Teh old street sweeper has seen its best days. The new automatic sweeper, which will cost around $8,000, will be a big improvement over the old one at its best. The automatic is on the principle of the vacuum cleaner, using suction to remove the dirt and dust from the street and doing a much more his degree. T.V.

ProWilliam Dolan of the AiNational Bank, who owns a MYSTERIOUS OIL FIELD BLAZE LONG BEACH, Oct. 22.—Fire of unknown origin broke out today in the gasoline plant of the Pan-American Refinery at Long Beach, menacing one of the richest sections of the big Signal Hill oil field and threatened to destroy the $1,000,000 plant of the Shell Oil Co. directly opposite the blazing refinery. By noon the flames had been partially subdued. Corps of fighters, recruited from Long Beach and surrounding cities, succeeded in confining the conflagration to the Pan-American Refinery. The loss to this plant was estimated at between $75,000 and $100,000. Experts in combatting oil fires contend that unless a high wind springs up, the fire will be extinguished. An explosion in the absorption plant of the refinery marked the outbreak of the conflagration. A number of men working in the plant were blown to the floor and one of them, Harry Perry, a pump tender, was stunned by the blow. His clothing ignited and burned completely away before his fellow workers succeeded in dragging him from the blazing plant. He was rushed to a hospital, where it was said he had slight chance for recovery. The flames spread to the cooling towers of the refinery within a few minutes and before an organized effort could be made to combat the flames, both structures were a total loss. The fire then spread to reservoirs about the base of three 30,000-gallon tanks of gasoline and threatened to sweep into the Shell Co., refinery across the street and to the plant of the General Petroleum Co., a block away. Doheny Attorney States Navy Officials Made Severe Demands LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22.—Winding up his resume of facts with which the defense attorneys hope to prevent U. S. attorneys from canceling valuable oil leases granted to E. L. Doheny and his interests on naval oil reserve lands in the Elk Hills district, by a direct charge that navy officials drove a hard bargain with the Los Angeles millionaire when the contracts were issued. Attorney Frank J. Hogan paved the way for the introduction of witnesses today. Hogan, who is senior counsel for the battery of legal talent employed by Doheny, his son, E. L. Doheny, Jr., and his two oil companies, the Pan-American Petroleum & Transport Co. and the Pan-American Petroleum Co., had occupied the timelight in the Elk Hills suit since yesterday afternoon. During the time he was outlining the plans of the defense, he talked at great length on the conditions brot about by the granting of the leases to the Doheny interests. Hogan referred to Admiral J. K. Robison, chief of the Engineering Bureau of the navy department, who was declared by Atty, Owen J. Roberts of the prosecution, to have been a "lifelong friend of Doheny" and "made it possible for Doheny to obtain rights to the Elk Hills reserve." Robison arrived in Los Angeles today prepared to take the stand, having been summoned to Los Angeles by the federal attorneys. He will also be called as a witness for the defense, it was indicated. In his remarks regarding Admiral Robison, Hogan emphatically declared that Doheny and the naval official were not friends but merely acquaintances and that no man "ever drove a harder business bargain than the admiral." "Al thru the negotiations regarding the Elk Hills contracts and leases, the navy department got the best of it at every turn. Admiral Robison, Secretary Edwin Denby and other officials were ever insistent that the best bargain possible should be obtained for the department." Hogan declared that when conditions were outlined to the Doheny interests in negotiating for a contract to add to the supply of fuel oil at Pearl Harbor, J. Crampton Anderson, president of the Pan-Amreican Petroleum & Transport Co., strenuously objected to the terms offered by the navy officials. He protested that the terms were unfair and would work hardship on the company yet afterward. Sam Kraemer of Plain who owns a 1919-20 Pile row, was a show visitor and at the new models.

The flames spread to the cooling towers of the refinery within a few minutes and before an organized effort could be made to combat the flames, both structures were a total loss. The fire then spread to reservoirs about the base of three 20,000-gallon tanks of gasoline and threatened to sweep into the Shell Co., refinery across the street and to the plant of the General Petroleum Co., a block away. Chemicals were forced over the flaming pools of gasoline surrounding the tanks, but apparently the efforts of the fire fighters were unavailing. Frantic calls were dispatched to Los Angeles for assistance in fighting the flames and arrangements were being made to dispatch several tank cars filled with chemicals by special train to the scene of the blaze.

Wilson, 26, cook at the Crown Cafe, was in jail today, and M. Guy Cummins, former owner of the cafe, was in bed following an encounter at the cafe this morning in which fists, feet and a stool are said to have been used with great freedom. Police say that when they arrived they were scarcely able to recognize Cummins, that he was so badly beaten up that there was scarcely a white spot on him. Dr. George A. Palge said that he had suffered "lacerations about the face," a concussion of the knee and a hurt in the side where, it is said, he was kicked. The doctor said he that he would be able to be about again, however, within a few days. Wilson will probably be charged with an aggravated case of assault and battery, or possibly with an assault with a deadly weapon, namely a stool. The fight is hard to have followed Wilson's charge that Cummins owed him a will which he would not pay. Cummins was proprietor of the cafe until it was taken over Monday by T. H. Blowers. Wilson entered a plea of guilty today before Judge Kuchel on the charge of assault, and was sentenced to 50 days in jail. Hogan declared that when conditions were outlined to the Do Henry interests in negotiating for a contract to add to the supply of fuel oil at Pearl Harbor, J. Crampton Anderson, president of the Pan-Amrelian Petroleum & Transport Co., strennously objected to the terms offered by the navy officials. He protested that the terms were unfair and would work hardship on the company; yet, afterward, when the proposition was put to Doheny, Anderson was overruled and the contract, containing the asserted unfavorable terms, was authorized.

Often he used abusive language and on one occasion threatened personal violence, she said. According to her declaration, they were married Nov. 6, 1915, and have no children. Simpson received $50 a week salary besides his commissions, his wife says. The shooting occurred in Emery's real estate office following an altercation with Simpson. The bullet pierced Emery's left arm just below the shoulder, missing the bone, it was reported. Simpson was being grilled this afternoon by Police Supt. Carroll. According to office employees, Simpson entered the real estate office, asked if his wife was employed there, and when answered in the affirmative, opened fire on Emery. Simpson's first shot went wild but the second lodged in Emery's shoulder. "You broke up my home," shouted Simpson, as he opened fire, it was said. Col. Emery later declared he knew of no reason why Simpson should shoot him. Mrs. Simpson has worked in Emery's office about three weeks. She is 28.
