PEOPLE MAY HAVE CHANCE TO VOTE ON CAFE ISSUE. Initiative Ordinance Lacks Enacting Clause, and While Some Councllmen Say Defeat Is Fatal.

There la Disposition to Place Matter on Forthcoming Ballot. The Initiative petition submitting a proposed ordinance regulating dancing in hotels, restaurants and cafes that hold liquor license permits was certified to the City Council by City Clerk Wilde yesterday as containing a sufficient number of names. It was referred to the City Attorney to advise the Council as to the necessary procedure to be The City Attorney called attention to the fact that the petition contains no enacting clause. He assumed, however, the regular course could be taken in order to get the sentiment of the people. Attorney Kent K.

Parrot, who represents the committee of citizens, said the fact that the proposed ordinance contains no enacting clause does not make it ineffective. It is the intent of the petitioners, as expressed in the ordinance, that governs, he asserted. The Council proposes to hold a special election on proposed charter amendments within the next seventy days, and It is expected the dance ordinance will have a place on the ballot. Councllmen Wheeler and Topham asserted that the petition Is worthless on account of the absence of the enacting clause. Councilman Topham, however, remarked later that there Is no disposition to prevent the matter going to the people for an expression of their views at the same time that a vote was taken on the charter amendment.

He said the City Council could then put the enacting clause into the ordinance and submit it to the people. HOLD "DRY" TEAS. Prohibition Is Discussed nt Fashionable Afternoon Functions. A temperance tea was held on Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. R.

B. Lane, No. 7008 Franklin avenue, Hollywood, to which members of the California Campaign Federation were invited as speakers. Society women entered into the discussion on the proposed prohibition amendments with a spirit which proved their keen interest in the subject. Herbert A.

Wheeler, department superintendent of the campaign federation, spoke on the menace of the moderate drinker. VETO IN CAUSE OF EFFICIENCY. Mayor Against Ordinance to Stop Department Pay. People Would Resent Such an Action, He Declares. Battle Against Director not Ended, Say Opponents.

Expressing his opinion that the people of Los Angeles would resent any attempt to destroy the usefulness of the Municipal Efficiency Bureau, Mayor Sebastian yesterday toed the ordinance wiping out the salaries of the department, which ordinance the City Council passed last Thursday by a vote of five to four. In a message which will be read at the meeUng ot the Council this morning the Mayor says: "Honored Members: I am returning herewith, without my approval, ordinance repealing ordinance No. 32903, "an ordinance providing for the number- of persons to be employed in the office of the Efficiency Commission and fixing their several "The people of Los Angeles, desiring the utmost efficiency and economy in the city government, a are heartily in favor of maintaining the Efficiency Bureau, and. in my opinion, will resent any attempt to destroy Its usefulness." Last week the Mayor vetoed the Items In the budget for the efficiency department because provision for the salary of a director was not included. The Mayor said he has no desire to enter into the Burks controversy, but he feels the efficiency department must have a head.

Chairman Wheeler of the Council's Finance Committee said yester-on tKar. In nn nroviaion in the budget for the salaries of the efficiency department, ui $13,100 in all, will have to be pro- tva o-cmerjil fund. The salary of the director is $4000. and $9100 is for assistants ana ciern hub. President Betkouski said the fight against Director Burks is by no means ended by the Mayor's veto, whic was expected.

He said: "They cannot get the money for the department out of the general fund; they have to have six votes to do that." IkLVKES NO DEFENSE. Waa Desperate, so Forged Check, States Man In Court.

Herbert Baring, son of Mrs. Thomas Morris, No, 329 East Lemon avenue, Monrovia, was threatened with lock-jaw yes- terday, but is now believed out of danger, following an operation at the Good Samarl- tan Hospital, where he was rushed in a desperate effort to save his life. Tiny splinters of glass, lodged in Baring's hand when he was hurled through the windshield of an automobile in a Long Beach motor acci- dent a month ago, caused the I dangerous infection.

In yes- terday's operation the sur- geons removed several minute particles that had escaped no- tlce when the young man's wounded hand was first dressed. Baring Is an lnsur- ance man. UK 1 11111 1 I I 1 1 I 1 1 1 1 Mr Right. A SKS JUSTICE FOR ELECTRIC ROADS. JITNEY BCSSES TAKE CREAM.

OF BlSEfESS. Councilman Thinks Companies that Contribute a Third of Pav ing Cost Deserve Protection from Competition of Concerns Uiut Have Free Vne of Streets. "I think it very unfair," said Councilman Wright, when a petition was presented to the City Council yesterday asking that the Los Angeles Railway be not allowed an extension of time in which to do certain paving between its tracks and two feet on either side. The Councilman was not referring to the petition, but to the general principle of compelling street railways to pave one-third of streets along which their tracks run, while Jitney busses, which take away so much of the companies' revenues, do not have to defray any of the expense, but can freely use the streets toward the Improving of which the companies are obliged to contribute so liberally. Councilman Wright said afterward that he feels very strongly on this matter.

"The Los Angeles Railway is los ing large sums every year, and yet we are Increasing the burden on them of paving streets," he said. "The company operates on a franchise and a portion of its earnings goes to the city antr we let tnese Jitney busses run beside its cars and pick up the cream of the business. "I think these busses are almost a menace to this city. A good many of the drivers are of vicious morals, they break the tralilc laws and their machines clutter un the streets. They are the cause of accidents and the cause of crime.

"It is oulte oroper that the people who have paved their streets should want the company to do Its share of the work promptly, but we should deal fairly with the street railway companies in the restriction of Jit ney busses." Crux. REAL BULLET IIOLES? Surprise Witness In Murder Trial Given TOKtliuony Vital to the Defen.se Theory that Woman Wus Shot by Accident During Scuffle. Miss Petra Ortea was a surprise witness yesterday In the trial of Hilerio Herrera, charged with the slaying of Mrs. Soledad Juarez. In the proceedings before Judge Nicol, sitting for Judge Craig, the young woman gave testimony purporting to show that alleged bullet holes in the walls of the house where Mrs.

Juarez died are not genuine. Deputy District Attorney Hogan devel oped this testimony despite much opposition by the defense. Detective Austin of the District At torney's staff will probably be called this morning and questioned along the same line. The holes in the walls. ascribed to bllets, have a very Im portant bearing on the case, as the ground has been taken by the defense that they prove Mrs.

Juarez could have been shot only by accident. The contention of the defense is the bullets flew by chance when Herrera and Juan Juarez, widower of the slain woman, scuffled for the possession of a revolver. Deputy District Attorney Hogan endeavored to bring out ye-terday that Herrerra was outside the house at the time of the shooting, and fired through the doorway. Final arguments will probably be heard today, as the taking of testi mony is shout complete. An Alibi.

Cogan, charged with attempting to bribe Oble Daniels, a negro who was recently convicted of assaulting the defendant with a deadly weapon, failed to appear before Superior Judge Nl-ol yesterday when his cafe was called.

Members of the City Council Indicated yesterday, when gym pathetically receiving the Chamber of Commerce resolution In favor of lower rates on public utilities for Industrial purposes, that they will be glad to do what they can to achieve the end Bought, to create conditions here for one of the most prosperous industrial centers of the nation. "The idea Is a most excellent one," said Councilman Wright. "The chief thing they have In mind Is a reduction of water ratea As I recall the ruling of the City Attorney, under the charter, we cannot do anything until next February." President Betkouski said It would mean an entire survey of the financial resources of the water department. "The Southern Pacifies Railway is the largest consumer of water," he added. "If we should fix a quan tity rate on a sliding scale, which would be the only way you could benefit factories and industries, the railway company would come in for the most important benefit.

The com pany does not object to the rate now. It is paying a lower water rate in this city than in San Francisco and Oakland." "Less than half as compared with Pan Francisco," added Councilman Wheeler. Councilman Topham said the railroad company was not a manufacturer, but a user of water. "I don't know whether you could discriminate," said President Bet kouski, and Councilman Wright said "I think a rate scale should be ar ranged which would give a prefer entlal rate for factories and indus tries." The matter was referred to the Public Service Committee, of which President Betkouski is chairman, the other members being Councllmen Wheeler and Roberts. Indcrlttlve.

POINTS FOR BOTH. Prosecution and Defense Lay Claim to Advantages In Preliminary Hearing of Banker Who is Accused of Obtaining Money Falsely. The prosecution in the case of A. M. Goodhue, banker and clubman, accused of obtaining from Miss Vir ginia Cronk J2500 under false pre tences, claim to have won an im portant point yesterday in the preliminary examination before Justice bummerneld, when a commercial agency, through a representative, testified that Mr.

Goodhue had not been given a rating. Mr. Goodltue won a point when it was shown by testimony that the formula owned by the Ornnmelta Enamel Company was worth more than $100,000. These two points bear on the case. The evidence of Miss Cronk, supported by her mother, Mrs.

Elizabeth V. Cronk, and her sister. Mrs. Ruth Cronk Lelghton, was to the effect that Mr. Goodhue, an old friend, in obtaining from all three approximately represented ho was rated in Dun's and Bradstreet's at about $150,000, that they gave him their checks nnd received promissory notes and shares of stock in the enamel company." They allege the assets of the latter are small, whereas Mr.

Goodhue told them, they said, it had assets of $24,000. The hearing was not concluded yesterday and will be resumed in argument this morning. Avast! 0 ID SALT LEARNS NEW SniP RULES. LESSOX GAIXED AT COST OF A BROKEN NOSE. Arriving at San Francisco from China, in Impatience to Reach Los Angeles He Boards Steamer too Early Tells in Marine Hospital How He was Put Ashore.

Fred Cotton is an old seafaring man, but yesterday he entered the marine hospital at the harbor, after learning something new about rules on shipboard. Cotton arrived Bt San Francisco a few days ago on the Standard Oil tanker Acme from Hankow, China, tind bought a ticket on the steamer Harvard lor Los Angela. There is a rule on Pacific Navigation Company steamers that passengers are not allowed on board until a reasonable time before sailing. Cotton wanted to go aboard earlier. He succeeded in getting past the quartermaster at the gangplank, who called the mate.

A short time, afterward, according to Cotton's story, the mate met him in the social hall. Just what happened after that is not clear from Cotton's story, and the tale of the mate is yet to be heard. Cotton left the ship, although he admits that he refused to do so upon the order of the mate. He says that he was carried off by the ankles and dumped on 4he wharf. Today when he entered the marine ward at the San Pedro Hospital he had a compound fracture of the nose and severe bruises on the face that had been patched up temporarily at the Receiving Hospital at San Francisco before he left.
