G. < Although betting on the nominations to be made at Venice next week Is by no means lively, a little money ls being laid on the result as far as a few of the candidates are concerned. Joe Murphy yesterday posted the following odds: One to 2 on Hammel against the field: 10 to 8 that Cleveland in nom- inated for constable; 2% to 1 on Wick- ersham for public administrator; 2 to 6 on Lanterman for coroner; even money on GUlett for governor. AWAIT THEIR EXAMINATION It is understood that Ford will try to secure the nomination for the coun- cil from the Second ward, -In which event he probably will have Hammon's support. Ford for Council There are three candidates in the Seventy-fifth district, but Percy Ham- mon Is believed to be so far In the lead that the other two. General Johnstone Jones and Clement Shlnn, no longer enter Into the calculations of the poli- ticians to .any extent. Joseph Ford was a candidate In this district for a time, but he withdrew in favor of Hammon. '•) Inthe Seventy-second Fred E. Pierce and W. H. Bryant are after the nom- ination, and the friends of both are making loud claims. Plerce's campaign ls being managed by Fred Sanborn of San Francisco, which Is regarded by many as a strong point Inhis favor. Bryant, however, also ls j strongly backed. He Is connected with the Fairchild-Gllmore-Wilton company nnd knows considerable about the po- litical game himself. J. P. Transue ls the only candidate In the Seventy-second district. In the seventy-fourth R. O. Bell and Frank S. Forbes will make a contest for the nomination. Plerce't Campaign There Is no contest In the Seventy- first district, P. A. Stanton, the Incum- bent, being the only candidate. There are three candidates in the Seventieth district W. R, Leeds, secre- tary of the Republican county central committee: 8. D. Uarclay of Redondo and R. Bain of Santa Monica. Neither Barclay nor Bain has cut much figure In the campaign so far, and the race ls looked upon as an easy walkaway for Leeds. i. .. In the Sixty-ninth N. W. Thompson of Alhambra, the Incumbent, Is the only candidate In the field. In the Sixty-eighth district there are four candidates In the field, and the outcome Is a little more difficult to determine. N. A. Gray of Chatsworth ls generally picked us the winner of tha assembly nomination In •th 4 Sl*ty-seventh dis- trict, as against George B. Case of Pas- adena. In Mann's District There is ft three-cornered fl«ht In tho Thirty-sixthdistrict between Men tiahn, the Incumbent; .Jr. Henry Bh«rry and Elmer Moody, but Hahn's capture of thlrtjr-tlirne of the fortyelgl.t Pasa- dena delegates Is looked upon as plac- ing him fur In the lend In thftt race. in the Thirty-eighth district H, S. O. McCartney has no opposition for the nomination. eernert Itnow pretty clear. In several districts there nre no contests, and In others the winners are being picked with a good deal oi confidence. In the Thirty-fourth MnatorUl dis- trict there «r» two candidates-W. 11. Rnvoßo of Bun Pertro nnd O. H. Peck of the same city. Savage Is the Incum- bent, and the prediction freely made that he will hn ye no trouble In securing a renominatlon. Mrs. Henry Newby of Pasadena was honored guest at a luncheon at the Cal- ifornia club, followed by a theater party at the Orpheum given yesterday by Mrs. E. T. Off of Cabrlllo place. Jack D'Ortlgnac had charge of the decorations for the tables, which were asters and ferns. Those who sat down were Mrs. Henry Newby, Mrs. Herbert Holt, who Is the house guest of Mrs. Off; Miss Ratcllff, Mrs. O. Hlnes, Mrs. William H. Smith and Mrs. Voak, all of Pasadena, and Mrs. W. J. Pierce of Los Angeles. Entertains With Luncheon The safety., valves alone prevented a terrible disaster, and even after the elevator was brought to a. standstill, the suspense of waiting a weary hour while workmen hacked an opening through the edge, was- trying even to the strongest nerves. Women shrieked and even the men turned pale at the thought of almost certain death. Suddenly something gave way and the big steel cage began to fall with sickening rapidity. \u25a0\u25a0 . l The cage was crowded- to its utmoßt capacity. No thought of danger was iri the minds of the passengers, who chatted with one another as the ele- vator slipped down the shaft. The accident occurred at 6:26 o'clock, when many of the, tenants were ready to return to their "homes. I Near Closing Tims After an hour's hard work the cage was lowered withgreat caution near to the ground floor and the occupants, marry half fainting from the shock and the nervous strain, were lifted ljromthe elevator by means of a ladder which 'was thrust through an opening in the side of the cage, torn away by the workmen. An alarm was Immediately given by spectators of the narrow eßcape from death of the terrified passengers, and \u25a0workmen were hastened to the build- ing at Third and Hill streets. Fortunately the cage was stopped in its swift downward course by the safety levers and finally brought up with a sickening Jerk .lust between the first and second floors. Nearly a score of men and women looked death In the face late yesterday afternoon when one of tha elevators In the Fay building, filled with passen- gers, suddenly dropped with a crash that brought the tenants of the offices to their doors with faces stricken with horror at the expected tragedy. Leave for San Gabriel Canyon Miss Elizabeth D. Grant,, who has been spending the summer with her brother, Robert D. Grant of 103 Alva- rado street, willleave Sunday for her home In Pennsylvania. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wagner of Santa Barbara are the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Schweppe of 2722 La Salle avenue.

Secret service men were detailed to locate him and the Leslie woman, and finally they were arrested In St. Louis and brought back for trial In the fed- eral court. Allen was formerly assistant post- master at La Mesa. Following a rob- bery of the postofflce Allen disappeared and Nada Leslie, claiming to be his wife, went with him. It is alleged Allen: filled in some of the blank money orders which he took from the Le Mesa office and cashed them at the Los Angeles postofflce. Leigh Allen and Nada B. Leslie,' now confined In the county Jail, will be ex- amined before United States Commis- sioner Van Dyke September 17 on a charge of defrauding the Los Angeles postofflce by presenting fraudulent money orders at the office. x Charged With.

Leslie and Leigh Allen ACETYLENE VICTIM BETTER Early in the evening neighbors tele- phoned to Desk Sergeant Harris that Mrs. Wheeler was running up and down the street terrorizing every one living in the -vicinity. Denman accordingly telephoned for the ambulance and took the unfortu- nate woman to the receiving hospital. The patrolman endeavored to calm the woman and 'accompanied her from her front step to the house but Mrs. Wheeler became all the more violent. . .Patrolman Denman said the \u25a0woman approached him with great fear, ex- pressed inher manner and said she did not dare to return to her home, because a corpse was in her bedroom. .-.<.- ; Mary Wheeler of 1052 Catallna street was taken to the police station last night on a charge of Insanity. to Aid Her ent When Policeman Approaches Catallna Street Woman Becomes Vio.

San- born, left Tuesday for Cleveland to marry Grace Berrlman, a Los Angeles girl. They have been engaged for some time but the wedding came as a sur- prise to their friends. It Is possible tho convention willhave to be called to order the third day, but It ls not believed that its business will require it to be in session longer than noon. Under the old order of things the delegates would be lucky If they got away inside of a week. The outlook so far as nominations for assemblymen and senators is con- Short Convention Of course It ls Impossible to tell how much time this will require, as every- thing will depend on the fights that are made, but it ls believed that one day- willbe sufficient to complete this work. AH of the candidates will be nom- inated before the voting is begun, and it is thought the convention will be ready to begin balloting. the j morning of the second day. j Notwithstanding the immense amount of work on hand. It looks now as if the sessions of the Venice, convention would not last more than three days and pos- sibly not more than two. The use of the Australian system of balloting will cut down the time Immensely and greatly simplify the work. It also is proposed to limit the nominating speeches to the briefest possible presen- tation of the various candidates. This compromise ls said to have re- sulted in a decision of both factions, to support Henry, and hereafter Gra- ham willbe left to shift for himself. Desert Graham Notwithstanding this, the Parker crowd continued to give him its sup- port until the last day or two, when the conclusion seems to have been reached . that a further fight inhis be- half would be suicidal and' that the organization's only hope of succesß at the convention lay In reaching a com- promise with the "federal brigade." , The fact that Al Graham has been given any support Inhis candidacy for a renominatlon has caused a good deal of dissatisfaction among the rank and file of Republicans, who feared that his name on the ticket would have a decidedly weakening effect on the whole slate. Graham's showing at the country primaries was a poor one, and gave ample evidence of the correctness \u25a0\u25a0 of the charge that he has made himself unpopular with the farmers in 'his dis- trict. In some of tho precincts in his district the opposition to him won by a. vote of three to one. The Parker crowd has been. back of Graham and the "federal brigade" has been lining up for Eldridge. The two factions apparently were unable to get together on either of these two men, and meantime Dr. Lamb has made a showing at the primaries that threat- ens to put both of them out of the running at the convention. This fact has been made so clear to the leaders of the two factions that to prevent the nomination of Lamb they finally have decided to bury their differences and unite on a third man. Lamb's showing at the primaries was a surprise to- the bosses. He is backed by that element of the popu- lation that is opposed to race track gambling:, and which proposes to make Itself felt at the coming election. The machine's attempt to force Gra- ham on the district for another term has merely served to strengthen the opposition of these people against him, and to make them even more deter- mined to carry the Ascot park . fight Into this campaign. Eldrldge was subsequently brought into the race by the Younscworth-FMnt faction of the machine, but he was no more acceptable than was Gra- ham. The result was merely to divide the machine forces, and as between the three candidates In the field,' Lamb soon was found to be. by far the strong- est. Parker's Hand An Interesting phase of the fight In that district developed yesterday, Ap- parenUy convinced from an examina- tion of the list of delegates elected to the county convention that It would a difficult. If not impossible, task to nominate either Al Graham or S. T. Eldrldge, the bosses decided to bring a new man into the field. The man se- lected ls said to be W. A. Henry, su- perintendent of the city market. According to gossip around Republi- can headquarters, both Graham and Eldrldge are to be sidetracked and the entire opposition to Lamb centered in favor of Henry. •"•'•. The trouble with the machine Is that It has been split on the auestlon of a candidate for supervisor in the Third district.' , Anything to beat Lamb for the nomi- nation for supervisor in the Third dis- trict seems to be the motto of tha Re- publican machine. ti,',\% Entertains Informally \u25a0 Mrs, Herbert G.

' Former favorite returns According to police reports, the city is being flooded withbogus money, and | despite the efforts of the detectives the confidence men and bad money operators have thus far escaped arrest. It is said that two men are working together and they have succeeded in victimizing scores. The precious pair are palming oft Georgia certificates, generally paying small bills and proffering bogus money in payment. It is stated a number of lodging houso keepers have been victimized and youthful clerks In grocery stores and lunch stands* have been taken inby the smooth operators. ' \u25a0 ' 'The \u25a0 detectives say the ' bills would \u25a0 iaslly pass among inexperienced per- sons. Owing to the flimsy nature., of Ihe paper on which the certificates were .^printed the passers pasted two bills to- \u25a0 gether in order to secure a bill of the same thickness as those In current use. " Several detectives are following clews and, hope to arrest the two men before 'they leave. \u25a0 . ;.

Althoughbetting on the nominationsto be made at Venice next week Is bynomeans lively,a little money ls beinglaid on the result as far as a few ofthe candidates are concerned. JoeMurphyyesterday posted the followingodds: One to 2 on Hammel againstthe field: 10 to 8 that Cleveland innom-inated for constable; 2% to 1on Wick-ersham for public administrator; 2 to6 on Lanterman for coroner; evenmoney on GUlett for governor.

AWAIT THEIR EXAMINATION

It is understood that Ford will tryto secure the nomination for the coun-cil from the Second ward, -In whichevent he probably willhave Hammon'ssupport.

Ford for Council

There are three candidates in theSeventy-fifth district, but Percy Ham-mon Is believed to be so farIn the leadthat the other two. General JohnstoneJones and Clement Shlnn, no longerenter Into the calculations of the poli-ticians to .any extent. Joseph Fordwas a candidate In this district for atime, but he withdrew in favor ofHammon. '•)

Inthe Seventy-second Fred E. Pierceand W. H. Bryant are after the nom-ination, and the friends of both aremaking loud claims. Plerce's campaignls being managed by Fred Sanborn ofSan Francisco, which Is regarded bymany as a strong point Inhis favor.

Bryant, however, also ls j stronglybacked. He Is connected with theFairchild-Gllmore-Wilton companynnd knows considerable about the po-litical game himself.

J. P. Transue ls the only candidateIn the Seventy-second district.In the seventy-fourth R. O. Bell and

Frank S. Forbes will make a contestfor the nomination.

Plerce't Campaign

There Is no contest In the Seventy-first district, P. A. Stanton, the Incum-bent, being the only candidate.

There are three candidates in theSeventieth district

—W. R, Leeds, secre-

tary of the Republican county centralcommittee: 8. D. Uarclay of Redondoand R. Bain of Santa Monica. NeitherBarclay nor Bain has cut much figureInthe campaign so far, and the race lslooked upon as an easy walkaway forLeeds. i. ..

In the Sixty-ninth N. W. Thompsonof Alhambra, the Incumbent, Is the onlycandidate In the field.

In the Sixty-eighth district there arefour candidates In the field, and theoutcome Is a little more difficult todetermine.

N.A.Gray of Chatsworth ls generallypicked us the winner of tha assemblynomination In•th4Sl*ty-seventh dis-trict, as against George B. Case of Pas-adena.

In Mann's DistrictThere is ft three-cornered fl«ht In tho

Thirty-sixthdistrict between Men tiahn,the Incumbent; .Jr. Henry Bh«rry andElmer Moody, but Hahn's capture ofthlrtjr-tlirne of the fortyelgl.t Pasa-dena delegates Is looked upon as plac-ing him fur In the lend Inthftt race.

in the Thirty-eighth district H, S. O.McCartney has no opposition for thenomination.

eernert Itnow pretty clear. In severaldistricts there nre no contests, and Inothers the winners are being pickedwith a good deal oi confidence.In the Thirty-fourth MnatorUl dis-

trict there «r» two candidates-W. 11.Rnvoßo of Bun Pertro nnd O. H. Peckof the same city. Savage Is the Incum-bent, and the prediction l« freely madethat he will hn ye no trouble Insecuringa renominatlon.

Mrs. Henry Newby of Pasadena washonored guest at a luncheon at the Cal-ifornia club, followed by a theaterparty at the Orpheum given yesterdayby Mrs. E. T. Off of Cabrlllo place.Jack D'Ortlgnac had charge of thedecorations for the tables, which wereasters and ferns. Those who sat downwere Mrs. Henry Newby, Mrs. HerbertHolt, who Is the house guest of Mrs.Off; Miss Ratcllff, Mrs. O. Hlnes, Mrs.William H. Smith and Mrs. Voak, allof Pasadena, and Mrs. W. J. Pierce ofLos Angeles.

Entertains With Luncheon

The safety., valves alone prevented aterrible disaster, and even after theelevator was brought to a. standstill,the suspense of waiting a weary hourwhile workmen hacked an openingthrough the edge, was- trying even tothe strongest nerves.

Women shrieked and even the menturned pale at the thought of almostcertain death.

Suddenly something gave way andthe big steel cage began to fall withsickening rapidity. \u25a0\u25a0 .

lThe cage was crowded- to its utmoßtcapacity. No thought of danger wasiri the minds of the passengers, whochatted with one another as the ele-vator slipped down the shaft.

The accident occurred at 6:26 o'clock,when many of the, tenants were readyto return to their"homes. I

Near Closing Tims

After an hour's hard work the cagewas lowered withgreat caution near tothe ground floor and the occupants,marry half fainting from the shock andthe nervous strain, were lifted ljrom theelevator by means of a ladder which'was thrust through an opening in theside of the cage, torn away by theworkmen.

An alarm was Immediately given byspectators of the narrow eßcape fromdeath of the terrified passengers, and\u25a0workmen were hastened to the build-ing at Third and Hillstreets.

Fortunately the cage was stopped inits swift downward course by the safety

levers and finally brought up with asickening Jerk .lust between the firstand second floors.

Nearly a score of men and womenlooked death In the face late yesterdayafternoon when one of tha elevators Inthe Fay building, filled with passen-gers, suddenly dropped with a crashthat brought the tenants of the officesto their doors with faces stricken withhorror at the expected tragedy.

ItIs possible tho convention willhaveto be called to order the third day, butIt ls not believed that its business willrequire it to be in session longer thannoon. Under the old order of things

the delegates would be lucky If theygot away inside of a week.

The outlook so far as nominations forassemblymen and senators is con-

Short Convention

Of course It ls Impossible to tell howmuch time this will require, as every-thing will depend on the fights that aremade, but it ls believed that one day-willbe sufficient to complete this work.

AH of the candidates will be nom-inated before the voting is begun, andit is thought the convention will beready to begin balloting. the jmorningof the second day.

j Notwithstanding the immense amountof work on hand. It looks now as if thesessions of the Venice, convention wouldnot last more than three days and pos-sibly not more than two. The use ofthe Australian system of balloting willcut down the time Immensely andgreatly simplify the work. It also isproposed to limit the nominatingspeeches to the briefest possible presen-tation of the various candidates.

This compromise ls said to have re-sulted in a decision of both factions, tosupport Henry, and hereafter Gra-ham willbe left to shift for himself.

Desert Graham

Notwithstanding this, the Parkercrowd continued to give him its sup-port until the last day or two, whenthe conclusion seems to have beenreached .that a further fight inhis be-half would be suicidal and' that theorganization's only hope of succesß at

the convention lay In reaching a com-promise with the "federal brigade."

, The fact that Al Graham has beengiven any support Inhis candidacy fora renominatlon has caused a good dealof dissatisfaction among the rank andfile of Republicans, who feared thathis name on the ticket would have adecidedly weakening effect • on thewhole slate.

Graham's showing at the countryprimaries was a poor one, and gaveample evidence of the correctness \u25a0\u25a0 ofthe charge that he has made himselfunpopular with the farmers in'his dis-trict. In some of tho precincts inhisdistrict the opposition to him won bya. vote of three to one.

The Parker crowd has been. back ofGraham and the "federal brigade" hasbeen lining up for Eldridge. The two

factions apparently were unable to gettogether on either of these two men,

and meantime Dr. Lamb has made ashowing at the primaries that threat-ens to put both of them out of therunning at the convention. This facthas been made so clear to the leadersof the two factions that to prevent thenomination of Lamb they finallyhavedecided to bury their differences andunite on a third man.

Lamb's showing at the primarieswas a surprise to- the bosses. He isbacked by that element of the popu-lation that is opposed to race trackgambling:, and which proposes to makeItself felt at the coming election.

The machine's attempt to force Gra-ham on the district for another termhas merely served to strengthen theopposition of these people against him,

and to make them even more deter-mined to carry the Ascot park.fightInto this campaign.

Eldrldge was subsequently broughtinto the race by the Younscworth-FMntfaction of the machine, but he wasno more acceptable than was Gra-ham.

The result was merely to divide themachine forces, and as between thethree candidates In the field,' Lambsoon was found tobe. byfar the strong-est.

Parker's Hand

An Interesting phase of the fight Inthat district developed yesterday, Ap-

parenUy convinced from an examina-tion of the list of delegates elected tothe county convention that Itwould b«

a difficult. If not impossible, task to

nominate either Al Graham or S. T.

Eldrldge, the bosses decided to bring anew man into the field. The man se-lected ls said to be W. A. Henry, su-perintendent of the city market.

According to gossip around Republi-can headquarters, both Graham andEldrldge are to be sidetracked and theentire opposition to Lamb centered infavor of Henry. •"•'•.

The trouble with the machine Is thatIt has been split on the auestlon of acandidate for supervisor in the Thirddistrict.' ,

Anything to beat Lamb for the nomi-nation for supervisor in the Third dis-trict seems to be the motto of tha Re-publican machine. ti,',\%
