WEATHER CANNOT KEEP
PRESIDENT UNDER COVER
Braves Ice-Coated Mountains and
Their Slippery Trails, but Hunt
Is Unsuccessful

by Associated Press.
GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo, May
5.-Ice coated mountains with their
slippery trails could not keep the pres
ident under cover today. At noon the
clouds lifted and the snow and rain
which have fallen continuously for
four days ceased falling.
With the first appearance of the sun
the party started out after the dogs,
but, though the hunt was continued
until dark, it was unsuccessful. An
early start will be made tomorrow and
the president hopes to get one more
bear.
He has not been discouraged by the
bad weather. His health has been
excellent and the wild camp life is to
his liking. If tomorrow proves to be a
good day for the chase the most will
be made Of it and the arrival at Glen
wood Springs delayed until Sunday
morning. With that in view Courier
Chapman will be started from camp
early tomorrow.

WANT EXPERIENCED MEN
APPOINTED TO OFFICE
Building and Loan Associations Ask
Governor to Appoint
Experts
BY Associated Press.


SACRAMENTO, Cal, May 5.-A
number of communications from build
ing and loan associations in different
parts of the state have been addressed
to Governor Pardee asking that when
appointments OF the two building and
loan commissioners are made men
familiar with the work of those organ
izations be chosen.
State Senator C. NJ. Shortridge of
Santa Clara and D. w. Field of Los
Angeles are the present commissioners
and their terms will expire this month.
At least the term Of Field will ex-
pire in few days but Shortridge
claims he holds until next January.
Shortridge had a contest in the courts
with E. D. McCabe, Ex-Governor
Budd's appointee, as to his rights to
the office. The controversy was in
the courts for some time and at its
end Shortridge was declared to be le-
gally entitled to the place. He claims
that he is entitled to hold the posi-
ton for four years following his actual
induction into office and that under
this contention his term will not ex-
pire until next January.

NO EXTRACTION PAPERS
FOR MINOR OFFENSES
Governor Declines to Sign Order for
Return of Suspect Held at
Salt Lake City

After spending days in their search
for the man who robbed an employe
On Donahoe's ranch and, after finally
tracing the suspect to Salt Lake City
and causing his arrest there, officers
of the county were astounded yester-
day to receive notice from the COVER
nor that the state would not issue an
order for extradition papers and would
not stand the expense of bringing the
suspect to Los Angeles.
The message from the state capital
came as an order in general to apply
to all minor cases handled by the local
officers. When a crime does not
amount to much and no large sum of
money is involved the governor will
not request the extradition Of the ac-
cused.
The case in question has proved a
thorn in the sides of the deputies for
some time past and, after success had
crowned their efforts, the news of the
governors failure to support their
claims was decided setback.
Several weeks ago an employe of the
Donohoe ranch, near Latin station,
missed $40 in gold from his trunk. The
trunk had been broken open and the
money removed. Gus Stokes, the
roommate of the victim, was alleged
to have committed the robbery.
Stokes was traced to the local ticket
offices, where the number of his ticket
was recorded and the officers hastily
wired for the arrest of the man when
he reached Salt Lake City. The arrest
was easily accomplished, but the sus-
rect will be released because of the
new order.

RAISE $1,000 FOR
ORCHESTRAL WORK
SYMPHONY NOW FREE FROM
INDEBTEDNESS
MEMBERS MAKE UP DEFICIT
Future Plans Will Not Be Hampered
Because of This Seasons Lack
of Support on Part of
the Public

When the eighth season of the Los
Angeles Symphony orchestra closed
with concert yesterday afternoon
the public spirited members Of the or
chestral association had the pleasant
consciousness that there would be no
indebtedness to hamper the future
efforts of the big musical organization.
This fact was not due to the cordial
patronage of local musicians, but to
the generosity of officers and directors,
who made up the $1,000 deficit.
After the seven previous lean years
so far as financial support Is concerned
the association has become accustomed
to this annual ceremony Of loosening
private purse strings, but eight sea-
sons of helpful work have proved that
local amusement seekers do not care
for high class music sufficiently to
pay for it, and 1t Is now given out
that next year the orchestra must be
put on a practical business basis If it
is to continue as an established feature
of the city's artistic life.
Several weeks ago 5000 residents of
Los Angeles were asked to contribute
81 each for concert tickets, but the only
response to these requests were made
by sixteen persons. who contributed
$4S. In view of the fact that the SYM
phony orchestra has been for nearly
a decade a good advertisement Of the
city's standing as a musical and artis-
tic center, this Indifference proved
most discouraging to the association.
Mrs. 1. B. Newton, the president, and
Mrs. Louise Macneil, the second vice
president, once more assumed the re-
sponsibility of raising the amount of
the deficit. and each of the directors
contributed sums from s25 to $3.50.
There are fifty-six members of the
orchestra and their work represents
a large amount of personal self-sacri-
flee, inasmuch as their services are
given for nominal pay The last sea-
son has proved most successful artis-
tically. The association voted thanks
to Harley Hamilton, the director. who
has accomplished much in drilling his
men and in obtaining the best of re-
suits from his we'll balanced orchestra.

To APPORT|ON
FRUIT BUSINESS
COMPACT PROBABLE between
RIVAL LINES
FREIGHT TRAFFIC MEN AGREE
Salt Lake and Initial Lines by Next
Fall VIII Conclude Arrangements
by Which Each Will Receive
Third of Business

With the opening Of the citrus fruit
season next year a compact will have
been completed between the Salt Lake
and the initial lines by which the
carrying business will be apportioned
equally among the three.
This is the consensus Of opinion
among traffic officials and is practical
ly admitted by the lines concerned.
Whereas the Santa Fe has demanded
and received half of the business in
the past, in the future it must be
content with one-third, but there Will
be scramble for traffic on the part
of all three roads.
Officials of the Southern Pacific must
continue to make the showing they
have made in the past and in spite of
the fact that the new road is also pet
of Hartman it will be left to shift for
itself.
When it comes to the Union Pa
cific, however both the Southern Pa
cific and the Salt Lake will be expected
to throw all freight and passenger
traffic possible to that road.
The Salt Lake has not yet completed
arrangements with its competitors for
an exchange of freight nor is 1t prob
able that such an understanding will
be completed before the end of the
present fruit season.
When the Clark line is in good con-
will lower the time to Chicago hut
competitors assert that this has also
been taken into account months ago
and when the contract was made for
the Salt Lake to run its traffic over
the Santa Fe from Cotton to Daggett
a distance of 9S miles, there was
clause inserted which provided thar
the time of the Santa Fe should not he
discounted.

YOUNG WOMAN WOUNDED
BY BOYS SLINGSHOT
Miss Louise stoII Struck Between the
Eyes by Stone and Seri-
ousIy Hurt

The combined efforts of a small boy
and a slingshot nearly cost Louise
Stoll, who lives at 434 South Flower
street. her eyesight last night.
Mrs. Bryant, proprietress of the
Bryant house. and her sister, Miss
Stoll, were standing on the sidewalk
outside of their home talking to friends
about $3.50 o'clock, when without a
word of warning Miss Stoll threw her
hands above her head and fell back
crying, II am shot; L am shot" 1t
was some moments before her friends
could realize what had happened and
when they lifted her to her feet they
found an ugly wound in her forehead,
exactly between the eyes.
DIR. Charles Jackson was imme-
diately summoned, but upon investigat-
ing he found that the wound was
merely that Of a small stone.
1t is thought that some small boys
playing in the street with slingshots
caused the trouble.

IS MUCH At MERCY OF SWIFT
ANTAGONIST
OPEN TO TORPEDO ATTACKS
Was Compelled 70 Pass Through
Malaeea, az the Japanese Had
Anticipated Him at Straits
Of Sunda
Rv Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, May 5.--Admiral
Rojestvensky. according to high
naval authority, has sailed south to
meet the division of the Russian Sec
ond Pacific squadron commanded by
Admiral Nebogatoff. The admiralty has
information that Japanese division Of
fast cruisers and torpedo boat destroy
ers was sent south for the purpose, II
possible. of crippling or destroying
Nebogatoff's ships before they could
effect a junction with those of Rojest-
vensky and there is reason to believe
that the japanese took up position in
the straits of Sunda, through which
Nebogatoff originally intended to make
the passage into the North Sea. There
is also reason to believe that Neboga-
toff first approached the straits of
Sunda, but finding them too well
guarded put about and headed north for
the straits of Malacca, his division
lacking the protection of fast cruisers
and being at great disadvantage in
meeting torpedo boat attackers.
The admiralty expresses much graft
fication at the fact that Admiral Nebo-
GATOR has successfully reached the
China Sea, but appreciates that the
composition of his division renders it
particularly vulnerable to a swift ad
versary, especially as. the crews of his
ships have not had the training in
maneuvering or the target practice
which Admiral Rojestvensky had while
off the island of Madagascar.

Press Charges Bad Faith

BY Associated Press.
TOXIC, May popular attention
is now centered on the presence of the
second Russian Pacific squadron in
French waters. While the assurances
of France relating to the Kamranh
bay incident were generally accepted,
the later discovery that the Russian
ships continued their stay at Kam-
ranh bay and then entered other
French ports has created feeling of
keen disappointment rapidly growing
deeply resentful.
The press charges France with bad
faith and repeats the demands for in
dependent action upon the part of the
Japanese government. The conserva-
tive element is awaiting Frances re-
sponse in explanation, hoping that
that government will finally expel Ro-
jestvensky from its waters.

GOING AFTER THE FRENCH
Japanese Showing Increasing Solici-
tude About Infringements

BY Associated Press.
PARIS, May 5.-The Japanese rep
resentatives here continue to make al
most daily visits to the foreign office
for the purpose of learning what steps
are being taken to compel the Russian
second Pacific squadron to maintain
the neutrality of French waters and
also to present the information reach
ing Toxic showing that the Russian
warships are receiving supplies from
French ports.
These visits have led to the publica-
tion Of reports that DIR. Motono, the
Japanese minister, has submitted
another protest on the subject. This
is not correct, the visits as yet not
having resulted in a renewal of the
Japanese protest. However, 1t Is evil
dent that the Japanese are showing in
creasing solicitude and their repeated
visits give a more pressing character
to the representations each day con-
cerning the location of the Russian
ships. 1t appears to be conceded that
they are outside the three mile limit,
so the question no longer hinges upon
their being within French territorial
waters. But the Japanese information
indicates that the Russians, while they
are outside neutral limits, keep up
communication with the shore, thus
retaining the practical advantages of
remaining inside neutral waters.
Russians Taking Supplies
Admiral De Jonquieres departure
from Saigon with a portion of the
French squadron was for the purpose
of carrying out the strict orders sent
to him from here against permitting
any infringement of neutral rights,
particularly along the coast at Cape
ST. James, where the French informa-
tion indicate the Russians have Sc
cretly been taking supplies on board.
A dispatch to the Havas agency from
st. Petersburg says Admiral Rojest-
vensky has informed the Russian ad-
miralty of the presence of japanese
warships in the territorial waters of
the Dutch portion of the island of
Borneo. If the reports are verified, it
is added, Russia will protest to the
Netherlands government.

MEXICO SEEKS
AN EXPLANATION
RAISES POINT OVER ARREST
BY CHIEF HAMMEL
DISTRICT ATTORNEY INQUIRIES
Report That Alleged Murderer Was
Dragged Across the Border and
Taken Into Custody Is
Denied
DISTRICT ATTORNEY INQUIRIES

International complications have
arisen over the arrest Of Juan Antonio
Puebla, now in Jail in Los Angeles
awaiting trial for the alleged murder
of Abundio Garcia at Santa Monica in
1S9S Recently there has been con-
siderable correspondence between Gov
ernor Pardee and the state department
at Washington relative to the case.
The Mexican ambassador at Wash
ington represented to Secretary Hay
that Puebla had been kidnapped in Low
er California and spirited across the
California line and there placed under
arrest by Chief Hammel and Officer
Felipe Talamantes Of Los Angeles.
When the case was brought to the
attention of Governor Pardee in Sacra-
mento he at once ordered an investi-
cation to be made of the circumstances
surrounding Puebla's arrest.
Was Not Across Line
District Attorney j. d. Fredericks of
Los Angeles county was communicated
with and he has now given report to
Governor Pardee, in which he sets
forth that careful investigation con-
Quoted by him shows that Puebla was
not on Mexican soil at the time of his
arrest, that ne was not spirited across
the border line and that the taking of
him into custody was regular in all
respects.
Governor Pardee will forward the
district attorneys report to the state
department at once.
When the alleged murder of Garcia
occurred in Santa Monica seven years
ago Chief Hammel, who was then
sheriff of Los Angeles county, set at
work on the case. He followed on the
trail of Puebla, the suspect, and not
until few months ago did he and De-
tective Talamantes locate him.
At the time of Puebla's arrest friends
of his charged that he had been dis
covered just across the line in Mexico
and that the officers dragged him
across in order to take him in custody.
This, it is thought, resulted in the af-
fair being submitted to the Washing
ton authorities by the Mexican gov
ernment,
