Oifios of Tns Times. No. 2 B. Rarmonq ave PASADENA, July 3. Public necessity as seen by the City Council yes terday put a crimp In the plans of Throop Polytechnic Institute to build a grammar school.

The City Council set aside all the arguments of the school people and ordered Mentor- avenue opened through to California. Officials of the schools state that this action kills all hope for a grammar school as the condemnation of the land necessary for the street cuts away one-third of the Throop holding of land. This matter was vigorously contested before the Council and, after the final vote taken at the afternoon session. B. O.

Kendall made a vigorous speech to the Councilman Informing them that Throop Institute could not secure a new site and erect building in time for the next school ycai and that therefore the opening of Mentor avenue killed the grammar school project absolutely, SCHOOL BUDGET SUBMITTED. Carrying the Increases of the teach-pis salary, as previously outlined, the full account was submitted to the City Council yesterday. The school board calis for J9200 to execute Us programme. The estimates provide for Uio full legal assessment of 23 cents on the $100, and are based upon an estimated value of $38,000,000 of real estate. Should the final assessment fall below the estimated figure there will suw-ssarlly have to be a cut somewhere In the teachers' salaries as there Is no leeway and every cent of possible revenue will be needed.

Certificates of srointment have been issued to the tchers and now It Is for the Council and executive officers to provide the necessary funds. MILK GOES UP IN PRICE. Vi'lth every bottlo of milk delivered ire yesterday the driver left a notice that hereafter the price of milk will be raised 1 cent per quart and that milk delivered by the pint will be at the rate of 6 cents If the smaller measure, accompanied by a quart, but otherwise will be at the rate cf 6 cents. This Increase of cost is caused by the fact that the recent ordinance causing each cow to be Inspected for tubercular affection and individually pay a special license puts the big dairymen on the same footing as the little fellow. This ends a long fight on the part of the big dairymen, and transfers the burden from their shoulders to the general public.

ARCS FOR ORANGE GROVE. Orange Grove avenue will bo one of the best lighted streets In the country with arc lights every 250 feet, and at the same time this beautiful thoroughfare will not be disfigured with ai other line of poles. This solution of e. serious dilemma was brought about yesterday by a plan proposed by Superintendent of Lighting Glass to utilize the quarter Interest which the city now holds in the telephone poles for the stringing of electric wires. Superintendent Glass states that he can makt 0 11 necessary transfer from the Edison Ires to the city plant and be ready to switch on the current by, July 4.

The Council therefore voted all necessary authority to change over the lights to tne telephone poles. TOUNO MAN MISSING. Deep concern is expressed by many storekeepers of this city as to the ti hereabouts of Kenneth Parham, who is said to owe many bills, and the eager shopkeepers say that they gave him credit on the strength of his that he was the son of a Colo-rncio millionaire. It is also stated that young Parham Is tho son of respected parents of North Pasadena, and that he has no relationship to a Colorado or other millionaire. A number of the i.nxtous ones are keepers of Ice cream and confectionery stores, where it is said the young man royally enterialned numerous young women.

He was last ported here as working in Riverside. PASADENA NOTES. The Wm. A. Staats Company yesterday declared a quarterly 5 per cent, dividend on its capital of $200,000.

The board of directors et the same time passed a considerable sura to the surplus account. It was stated after the meeting that on the occasion of every dividend declared by the company, eluding the one Just passed, there was u. larger sum in the surplus of tha company than the dividend declared. There were three minor accidents required the attention of the Kmergeney Hospital yesterday. Grant 1 "noble of No.

James Plnney, another man employed at the Chamber of Commerce building, was struck by a brick falling from overhead, and severely cut on the scalp, two stitches being taken in the wound. B. W. Speer, an electrician, while traversing Vernon avenue yesterday morning, stepped on a rusty nail which iilcrced his foot.

July 2. According to the report of City Clerk James for the fiscal year Just ended, the collections for the term amounted to 086.42, of which $11,798.25 was from licenses. There Is a balance in the treasury of $24,000. There was spent about $4000 each on the police, fire and engineering departments; $3000 for the collection of garbage, the same amount for public printing, almost as much for electric lighting, and nearly $5000 for the street Improvements. For the construction of a bulkhead $3600 was expended.

It cost $4600 to operate the septic tank, and $4600 was paid in salaries. LENGTHY OPINION. In a lengthy opinion submitted to the City Trustees in relation to the petition praying for the disincorporate of the city, City Attorney Anderson Informs the Trustees that the petition is in proper form, and says that if the disincorporate act is constitutional and the signatures are genuine, It is the duty of the board to call the election. He says the statute contains a number of features which render the validity of the proposed measure extremely doubtful. "In calling this election." the City Attorney adds, "you are not restricted by the statute as to any given time within which it must, ba called." He says the fixing of the time has been left to tho discretion of the Trustees.

"This discretion," he adds, "you have, of course, no legal right to abuse; and consequently the election should be called by you. If called at all. within what, under al! of tha circumstances of the case, would be a reasonable time. You should not act with undue haste on tho one handi nor with unjustifiable delay on the other." In closing his opinion, Mr. Anderson said that a sufficient interval sWould elapse before the election is held to enable voters to fully consider and discuss the matter.

C. L. Foster of Los Angeles, who is policing Ocean Park, last night tendered his resignation. J. W.

Mills, captain, and Patrolman Hosick also resigned. Only four members of the board were present and the vote on the acceptance of the resignations re sulted in a tie. Final consideration of tho matter was deferred for one week. Low summer rates at Coronado. "WHEREASES" DECIDED.

Venice Chamber of Commerce Adopts Resolutions Expressing Views on Disincorporate. VENICE, July 2. The Venice Cham ber of Commerce has adopted resolutions expressing the opinion of Its members on the question of disincorporating Ocean Park. The "whereases" convey the idea that the bath-house troubles are being utilized to conceal the real issue, which has grown out of the refusal of the City Trustees of Ocean Park to refuse to relieve the taxpayers the burden of caring for the sewage of Santa Monica. This, the resolution avers, has been an unjust expense and the sewage has also been detrimental to property Interests.

Another soctlon of thowresolution recites that the City Hall was located at Toklo in direct opposition to the expressed wishes of the people; that the fire engine house was also located at a point not approved by the people. "We demand disincorporate," says the resolution, "for the sole purpose of securing a new Board of Trustees who will direct the affairs ot tne city in accord with the expressed will of their constituents." ALERT ARRIVES. The U.S.S. Alert cast anchor hero this evening, arriving a day earlier than she was expected. She carried Capt.

Gates. who is musical director for Evangelist Bulgin. and who now lives here, haw ing noted in a newspaper dispatch from Riverside, what he says are unwarranted aspersions cast in an article concerning tho hereabouts of Dr. Bulgin, states that there is no mystery regarJlng the latter's movements. He says Bulgin has not fled to avoid unpleasant business complications.

He says that Dr. Bulgin is en route to Europe on a recuperation trip, and that he will return to the United States about September 15. Mr. Gates received a letter from the evangelist dated June 20. at in-which the latter wrote that he would take the next steamer for Europe.

Left over night in the cell, with or dinary Jail fara passed to him at breakfast time, Worster was taken downstairs on Monday morning, according to his statement, and in the office of the detectives was put through the "sweating" process. For the first time, he says, ho learned then that he was on suspicion of hav ing robbed a Jewelry store.

What siore, ne couia not recall yesieraay. 'We've got the goods on one of the detectives told me," said Wors ter yesterday. "We have the receipts or the express company, showing you have sent goods to a man In San Francisco, and that he has sent stuff to you. We have some of the goods outside." Worster declared that he had been concerned In no robbery. He said he was not a "fence" for San Francisco thieves.

He claimed then, and still persists, that the entire matter was an enigma to him. After the "sweating," Worster was returned to the cell, where, at different times, he says, one or two of the detectives called on him and tried to extract a Worster says he had nothing to tell. Shortly after his incarceration, the youth says he wanted to telephone a friend to send him some tobacco. He states that he was denied the privilege of using the telephone, although the officers agreed to permit him to write a note. This note was sent out to the friend, but when the latter celled at the Police Station it is said he was informed that no man by the name of Worster was in the jail.

This mistake, probably, was made by the desk sergeant, who was ignorant of the names of persons booked on suspicion by the detectives. All of Monday and Monday night Worster was kept in the cell with the murder and robbery suspects, while his employers wondered what had become of him. On Tuesday morning, shortly after 10 o'clock, an officer appeared at the cell door, called the name of the boy, and told him he was to be released. "Well, we didn't find anything against you," one of the officers is reported to have told him, "but you can consider yourself lucky. You want to be careful after this or you will get Into trouble." Claiming he is innocent of any wrongdoing, (Worster says lie hardly knows how to conduct himself to suit the whims of the detectives.

His incarceration, which he claims was without warrant, cost the boy the wages of a day and a half, besides the discomfort and humiliation to which he was subjected. Officers of the detective bureau admit that they had no proof that the boy was concerned in any robbery. They thought he was "Frisco Slim," who has a bad reputation. Worster is too busy earning a living to proceed against the officers who threw him into Jail, DIFFERENCES OF OPINION. Owners of Auto, Locomotive and Launch Argue With Equalizers With Success.

It is a queer Jumble of matters that conies before the County Board of Equalization in the course of a day's business. Yesterday there were requests for reduction of valuation on an automobile, a railroad engine and a gasoline launch. Charles A. Jones of No. 619 East Twenty-fifth street was complaining auto owner.

He declared he wanted the valuation reduced to J250 and the request was granted. The owner of the locomotive, A.
