THEIR ANNUAL PICNIC
TWO SHOTS JT SEBASTIAN
Attempt Made to Assassinate Sus
pended Los Angeles Chief
of Police. a
MAY AFFECT TODAY'S PRIMARY
LOS ANGKLEfl, Tel.. May f. -Owing
to the Illness r.f a Juror and the Indisposi
tion of Charles E. Hebastian. following
the attempt on his life last night. Judge
Fred V. Wood postponed today's session
of the trial of the susiiended chief of po
lice and Mrs. Ullle Pratt, who are
charged with having contributed to the
dependency of Hdlth Herkin.
Sebastian had a narrow ewe-ape from
hla unknown enemy's bullets. He wss
sitting In the front room of hla residence
talking to J. O. Rover, who was a witness
In his behalf at the trial. The two men
were alone In tho house, Mrs. Sebastian
being engaged In winding up the affairs
of her husband's campaign for mayor.
About 1! o'clock the telephone bell
rang, and the chief got up to answer it.
He walked to a small aleova. room In the
rear and talked for about ten minutes.
The voice at the other end of the wire
professed to'be a friend of Pebaatlan and
made Inquiries about how to mark h's
ballot In the election.
Returning to the room where he left
his friend. Sebastian wss sbout to sit
down when a shot, rang out and a bullet
crashed throujrh the window, whizzing
directly over the chair In which the sus
pended chief had been sitting. Im
mediately afterward another bullet
crashed through the window and lodged
in a book lying on the table In the center
of the room. The bullets Were evidently
from, a 32-callber revolver.
Floh men rushed out on the front
porch, but saw no one. Neighbors, at
tracted by the shots, said they saw a
man wearing a llpht orercoat and carry
ing a satrhel running from the rear of
the house.
Varying assertions were merle today by
politician as to the effect the attempt to
kill Sebastian would have on the elec
tion for mayor.
Sebastian has alleged that the charges
Involving his morality were the outcome:
tt a political plot hatched when he an
nounced himself as candidate for mayor,
and he declared today that he was con
fident the people by their votes would
show a similar belief.
Frederick J. Whlffen, president of the
city council, and Ralph Orlwe!l, a so
cl.iJl.it deputy, appeared to be his most
formidable opponents.
Voters will select candidate for nine
teen municipal offices.
