WOMEN FAINT AS CARS STRIKE
Collision Occurs on Long Beach and
San Pedro Line

A collision between a San Pedro
street car and Long Beach car at the
corner of Ninth and South Main streets
shortly after IL o'clock yesterday after
noon caused temporary panic among
the passengers.
According to passengers on the car
at the time, the motorman was running
too rapidly and did not slow up as his
car approached the Long Beach line.
The San Pedro street car was south
bound, and as it neared the Long Beach
tracks a rapidly approaching outbound
Long Beach car came into view.
To the passengers who sat in front
it was evident chat a collision would
be the result Several of the men arose
and ran to the rear while many of the
women passengers tainted and others
screamed.
Before the motorman, who seemed to
suddenly realize the danger in which
he had placed the passengers, stopped
his car the Long Beach coach had al
most crossed the San Pedro street
tracks. The front part of the San
Pedro car collided with the rear part of
the Long Beach car. All of the pas
sengers were given severe jolt and
some were knocked TO the floor.

NEW YORK, Nov. pa serious

ropes were fastened in the street out
side of the building and the police sus-
pect that some one cut them just be-

TO TRACE CRIMINALS
BY THEIR THUMBPRlNTS
FAMOUS DETECTIVE TELLS OF
SYSTEM
William A. Pinkerton, Head of Great
Agency, Arrives in Los Angeles.
Says Prowler Must Wear Kid
Gloves or Go Out of Musiness.

William A. Pinkerton, head of the
Pinkerton Detective agency at Chicago,
arrived in Los Angeles yesterday for
two weeks stay. His visit to California
Is to install John F. Fraser of Denver
as the head of the Pacific coast branch,
with headquarters at Los Angeles and
San Francisco.
Mr.. Pinkerton said last night that
Pinkerton detectives will be employed
at Ascot park during the racing season
for the protection of the people, as they
have been every year since the park
was opened. The detectives who will
come here are the ones who police the
New York race tracks during the sum-
mer.
Mr.. Pinkerton gave detailed descrip-
ton of the use of the thum b-marking
system as a means Of identification Of
criminals, when seen at the Angelus
hotel last evening.
This is a new system in this country,
but has been used abroad for many
years, especially in China, where ma
tive always dips his thumb in black
powder and places the impression after
his name when signing documents.
While in England recently Mr.. Pin
kerton familiarized himself with the
system. He said that the system is
almost perfect in that country and that
two instances where the finger marks
were the only cews by which robbers
were successfully traced and identified.
Burglars Identified
In the first instance burglars entered
a house and in opening wine bottles
the impressions of their hands were
left. These impressions were photo
graphed and forwarded to all of the
detective agencies and the criminals
were soon apprehended.
Burglars, in another instance, had
their tools wrapped in paper and left
the paper behind. Their hands were
soled with grease and left a good i'm
preston, which was used to identify
them.
New York detectives were the first in
this country to take up this system,
end the agencies in Chicago soon fol-
lowed them. From there it's use has
gradually spread to the west, and Is
now being used by the Pinkerton forces
in Los Angeles.
'It is a much simpler system" said
Mr.. Pinkerton, than the BTtillon
method of keeping track of old GRIM
inals for the reason that it requires
no measurements and will in time be
in use over this country.
THE prisoners thumb is placed in a
cup of melted wax and the impression
is photographed and enlarged many
times to make it look like the thumb is
three inches thick. This enlargement
is recorded and filed away.
"The system of recording is as near
perfect as possible in England. There
they can turn to one of these records
as quickly as we can find a picture in
the rogues' gallery in America.
"Over there they say that they have
never found the impression of two
thumbs to be exactly the same. If this
is found to be true, 1t will greatly
facilitate the running down of GRIM
inals
THE only way out out of it for the
prowler, now" said Mr.. Pinkerton, jok-
ingly, 'fs to wear kid gloves"

MAY TIE UP RAILWAY TRAFFIC
Southern Pacific Officials Fearful Of
Results of Flood

Local officials of the Southern Pa
cific have received advices from Yuma
stating that the headgate of the Colo
rado river above Yuma may go out
at any moment, and if 1t does it will
mean that both bridges at Yuma will
be washed away.
The water rose six inches yesterday
and was still rising at the last re-
ports. The headgate cannot possibly
last If the water rises much more
and If 1t goes out and takes the Yuma
bridges, traffic on the Southern Pa
cific may be tied up for several days
until temporary bridge can be con-
structed
1t is believed that if the headgate
goes out the Salton sea will be SO
much enlarged that nothing can be
done to lower it for several years.
The Colorado river Is running a per-
feet torrent and if rain in the noun
tains continues there, 1t is expected
tie up the southern branch of the
Southern Pacific indefinitely, for no
bridge could be constructed over the
Colorado at the rate at which it is
running now.
If the bridge goes out it will be
necessary to run trains from the east
over the Santa Fe. The Southern Pa
cific would connect either at Deming
and over the Santa Fe by way of Albu-
querque. or at Maricopa, Ariz., with
the Phoenix & Prescott railroad and
run into the Santa Fe at Ash Fork,
Ariz., from which point trains would
be run over the Santa Fe.
A depth of thirty feet and six inches
has already been reached at Yuma
and while this is not the record high
water, the lowlands surrounding
Yuma are inundated deeply, and any
more water coming down the river
must go through the main channel
and consequently under the railroad
bridge.

RAIN RELIEVES DROUGHT
Precipitation at Sacramento Gladdens
Hearts Of Ranehers

SACRAMENTO Nov. 29.-Beginning
shortly after midnight this morning
and continuing without cessation up
to the middle of the afternoon, rain fell
throughout the central and northern
parts of the state in such volume as
to dissipate the fears that many per-
sons had held of a dry season. While
the rainfall is still far below the nor
NAL for this date, and greatly less
than last season, there is now no rea-
son to fear that II will not meet all
the requirements of the farmers, stock
raisers and miners
Indeed. enough has already fallen to
insure good pasturage for stock within
couple of weeks. II the weather
should not be too cold, and TO so swell
the mountain streams that the miners
and electric power companies will soon
forget that there had been q shortage.

BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-Flre was
used to battle the police today in one
of the biggest race track poolroom
raids made in New York during re-
cent months. Forty men were ar
rested in the raid. The alleged pool
room was on East Eighth street, on the
third floor of five-story building.
When the police appeared, parapher-
MALTA was heaped on the floor of the
room and set on fire. Although the
building itself also caught fire, the
men in the room locked themselves
in behind steel barred doors and raised
the windows so that the smoke could
escape They shouted in unison Fire!
Fire!" A panic Immediately broke out
In another part of the building among
factory girls, who rushed down the
stairs upon the police and who had to
be rescued and quieted before the raid
could continue.
When the officers entered the room
the last vestge of what they charge
was the evidence which they hoped
to secure was burning on the floor.

Feared Dams May Give Way at Any

Waters
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
YUMA, Ariz., Nov. 29.-The Colorado
river Is on a wild rampage and threat
ems every minute to break over the
dams and sweep the valley. The stream
is higher than it has been in fifteen
years and is continually on the rise.
1t now measures thirty-two feet.
Heavy rains are reported to be fall
ing at several points above and it is
believed that the flood of water will
reach here soon. If it comes the last
dam, which is in the process of con-
struction at the point where the river
divides, will be swept away as though
it were composed of straw and the
water will rush unchecked through the
valley, carrying everything before it.
The only damage which has been
done so far in Yuma is the flooding of
the electric light plant which leaves
the place in total darkness All of
the people have been warned so that
there is no danger of the loss of life,
and careful patrol Of all of the weak
places in Yuma levees is being main
tained.
1t would require an additional rise of
several feet for the water to break
over, but fear is felt on account of the
reported floods farther up the river.
Everything is lost at the Imperial
heading and all hope of ever changing
the course of the river back into the
old channel has been despaired of. All
of the work has been destroyed and
all the material, machinery and camp
supplies have been swept down the
river. The water is cutting the channel
deeper and the banks wider very rap
idly and gives prmise to very soon
overflow all of the adjacent property.

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 29.--Father
Gapon is here in hiding. In an inter-
view today he expressed the opinion
that the revolutionary leaders were
making the tactical mistake which he
made before January % of preaching
an armed rebellion, a democratic re-
public and an immediate S-hour day.
He added that his residence abroad
had opened his eyes. Time was neces-
say to realize the Soclalistic ideals
for the eventful struggle. If the em-
peror gives constitution, swearing
to abide by 1t, and grants full am
nesty, the people should be content for
the present.
Mr.. Struve. editor Of the Osvobide-
ME- also denounced the tactics of "the
men with whom / fought during my
long exile" as sure to end in disaster.
He added:
"The strike, which is being worshiped
as deity, will end in Industrial bank
ruptcy. 1t Injuries the cause. The evo-
luton of a dictatorship of the prole-
tariat would be as intolerable as that
of the Blacks. Justice, freedom and
industrial reparation should be the
aims"

In a rear-end collision between a
Grand avenue car and Elastlake park
car 394 at Maud Junction, yesterday
afternoon, Mrs. Jemima M. Henshaw
of 1855 East Fifty-first street was Sc
verely bruised about the head and body,
Mrs. L. F. Riveal of SOL Moulton street
was probably fatally injured, being cut
about the face and shoulders, and Mr..
and Mrs. r. r. Carr of 230 East Thir-
tieth street We're slightly bruised about
the body
Trailing close to the Grand avenue
car was the Eastlake park car, and
when the first coach stopped to pick
up some passengers, car 394 crashed
into it, throwing the passengers of both
cars out of their seats and smashing in
the front of the Eastlake park car.
Motorman 772 of the Eastlake park
car set his brakes hard but the speed
at which the huge car was travelling
carried it into the rear OF the Grand
avenue car with such momentum as to
push the head car a half length be-
yond the place of the collision.
One Car Leaves
After looking over the passengers
who had been thrown out of their seats
a hasty inspection of the car, the crew
of the Grand avenue pulled away from
the scene of the collision, leaving the
crew of the Eastlake park car to take
care of the injured passengers on their
car as best they could and make re-
pairs on the car itself.
Mrs. Henshaw and Mrs. Riveal were
standing on the front platform of the
Eastlake park car, which was crowded
Unaware that they were in any danger
the two women were hurled violently
against the front of the car and rend-
cred unconscious. Mr.. and Mrs. Carr
were sitting in front seats of the rear
vestibule and were hurled against the
partition.
Physicians of the street car company
arrived within a short time after the
collision occurred and found that Mrs
Henshaw had been injured internally
by striking brake handle. Mrs Riveal
sustained much more serious injuries
She was thrown against the controller
and the air controller, cutting a large
cash in her head and injuring her in
ternally, from which serious compli-
cations are likely to arise, say ply
sicians.
After the two unconscious women had
been revived they expressed wishes to
be sent to their homes and the in
spectors and physicians of the street
car company saw that their requests
were carried out. Within ten minutes
after the collision had occurred the
injured were removed and the debris
of the wreck was cleared away.
Early last evening reports of the
accident reached the police station and
an investigation was made by Patrol

Reported to Have Been Rid
died and Captured
BY Associated Press.


ST. PETERSBURG, Nov 29.-Sebas-
topol was today the scene of a des-
perate battle between mutinous sailors
and the troops in the forts on shore
During the battle the town and the
forts were bombarded by the guns Of
the cruiser Otchakoff, which lies a
burning wreck off Admiralty Point, its
hull riddled with shot and it's Haunting
red ensign of revolution hauled down.
Many of the crew of the Otchakoff
were killed or injured. According to
one report the barracks of the mutt
neers were carried by storm after the
mutinous fleet, which is said to have
numbered ten vessels, had surrendered,
and the whole position is now in the
hands of the troops under the command
of Gen. Neptueff.
The Associated Press, however, is un-
able to guarantee the correctness of the
report.
Owing 10 the interruption of the tele-
graph, details Of the battle are difficult
to obtain, but as the Associated Press
is authoritatively informed by the naval
general staff tonight, the battle was
begun by the troops on shore, who
opened fire on the Otchakoff, which
was defiantly displaying the red flag.
Cruiser Is Burning
The commander Of the Otchakoff,
Lieut.. Schmidt, Immediately accepted
the challenge, replying with both bat
teries, one trained on the town and the
other on the Fort Alexander batteries
on the north shore.
Capt. Zeilotti aide-de-camp to Ad-
miral Wirenius, chief of the naval gen.
eral staff, informed the Associated
Press that the latest dispatches re-
ceived from Sebastopol showed that
the Otchakoff was on fire and badly
riddled, with it's revolutionary colors
hauled down, but he was unable to give
more definite information.
According to a more detailed report
received from another source and pur-
porting to come from the admiralty
department, the battle began at
o'clock this morning, when Lieut..
Schmidt opened fire from a fleet of ten
ships, to which the northern batteries
at Fort Alexander, artillery posted on
the shore and several vessels which re-
manned loyal, replied.
During the naval battle the sailors on
