SUMMARY OP THK PAY. The Tublic Utilities Board ntlll maintains, lta position that 'It Is unwise to fix the rate for natural until the State Kailroad Commission xea the rate for pua delivery to' the city limits, and yesterday drafted a to be sent to the City Council today. The Bureau of Street Assessments ha completed the aastwment for the Hill-street tunnel and no appeals from the acceptance of the tunnel by the Board, of Public Works have been filed. The limit for such filing will expire on October 21. The City Prosecutor yesterday presented to the Council a proposed ordinance to prevent merchants and theaters making exhibits that will attract crowds la the streets that cannot be handled successfully by the police.

The V. D. Tteductlon Company yesterday akcd that the city -enter Into an agreement to Rive eiplit-monUis' notice before It is estopped from taking the city Karlurge to the hog farms neex Vlneland. A former Southern Pacific goners! uperlntendcnt has brought suit against an associate demanding certain profits in realty deals Involving valuable Alameda-street holdings. At the City Hall.

OARDS OPINION'. YET UNCHANGED. BEETKVKS IT VXWISK TO 11X NATUK Vli (i AS KATK NOW. Will Send Statement to City Council Today Holds that State Kail-road Commission Must first Set Bate for Delivery of Uan to Boundaries of Tos Angeles. There Is no change of attitude on the part of the Hoard of Public Utilities on the natural gas rate situation.

The board still maintains that It would be unwise to fix the rate for natural gas In the city until the State Rail-rood Commission has fixed the rate for delivery of the gas to the city boundaries. At yesterday's meeting of the commission the request of the Council for submission of data available for use In fixing the rate, was discussed end a repiy was framed, which will be sent to the Council this morning. The Council will as to the attitude of the board. Certain members of the Council would be glad to have an ordinance adopted Instructing the board to proceed Immediately to fix the rates, thus bringing Into use the recently-adopted provisions of the rharter whereby the Council may, by ordinance. Instruct any department as to the course of procedure It must take.

It Is entirely unlikely, however, that such a movement could get sufficient support to be carried through, as Councilman Reed 1 ill nnd away on a sixty days' leave of ftb-enee and Councilman McKenzle, who was strong for this action, is on a Six weeks' trip In the Kast. The Public Utilities Commission had set yesterday afternoon fis the time for hearing the representatives of the People's Welfare Commission, who had been Invited to present a substantiation of Its claims to what the natural gas rate should he. Not a member of the People's Welfare Commission appeared. Councilman Wiffen was present, however, and he discussed the situation with President McReynolds, nnd Insisted that as certain cities of the Eaflt have a 30-eent gas rate, this is a fair basis for discussion here. McReynolds declared that the Issue hinges largely on the matter of con-mimptlon of gas.

nnd that In the cities that have the low rate, there Is from three to eight times ns much of this fuel conxumrd. as would be the case In Los Angeles; that if the consumption of gas Is low, the rate necessarily must he higher than the cities cited. Ite stated that the rate for distribution of the manufactured gas Is 40. cents. On top of this must be placed the cost of the product.

Mayor Rose has stated that If the Council Is a unit In demanding tlv removal of President Mcltevnolds from the public Utilities Commission, ha will accede to such a request, as he believes the Mayor and Council should work In harmony and that little of advantage to the city could be accomplished were other conditions to develop. The demand of certain organl-tatlons for the removal of McReynolds nas been plnced In the hands of the Public Utilities Committee of the Council. NO PROTESTS TTI.fTV ON miX-STUKET The Rurcnu of Ptreet Assessments has completed the assessments fnr thn Hill-street tunnel, which was accepted hy the. Board of Public Works almost, a montn ago, and which Is used dailv hundreds of people. The total cost of this Improvement Is 13 1,404.1 1, pnd this Is to be borne bv 615 parcels Of land.

The time for appeal from the ac. ceptance of the work by the Bnnrd of Public Works will expire on October 22. So far, no protests have been filed. WANT TO KNOW. ABOUT TAX COTJ.RCTTXrt.

A suit on trial In Judge York's court to declare a partnership and for an accounting has brought to light the great Increase In the value of property on Alameda street since 1909. The suit was brought, by Robert If. Ingram, formerly general superintendent of the Southern Paeltle here, against David Johnston and Howard R. Smith, the latter a banker of Colton. Ingram, it appears, advised the purchase of forty-four acres on Alameda street, which at that time could have been purchased for $1000 an acre.

It was agreed, according to his complaint, to put the title of the property In the name of Johnston, who was to manage It. Ingram went to Mexico and was absent for four years. ITe alleges that he Inquired from time to time whether any of (he land had been disposed of and was told that no sales had been made. He learned recently that sales had been made. The defendants deny that Ingram hud any Interest.

The property, It appears, was bought for $1500 an acre. Portions wi re sold at a good advance, $35flO an acre being received In 1911. The remaining portion of eighteen acres is now-worth, It Is claimed, $5000 an acre. IVntt represent Ingram. Wesley Reach are counsel for the defendants.
