WANTED BY OAKLAND POLICE
Man Charged With EmbezzIement
From Automobiles Firms is Ar
rested in Los Angeles

Thomas Middlebrook of San Fran
cisco was arrested last evening for
the police of Oakland.
The warrant upon which he was
arrested charged him with embezzle-
ment of money from several auto
mobile firms in Oakland. 1t is alleged
by the Oakland police that Middle
brook left Oakland two weeks ago in
company with Lola Nichols, aged
eighteen. 1t was first thought that
the pair had gone to San Jose, but it
was later found that they came direct
to. Los Angeles. The girl has not
been located, but, as she is not wanted
in Oakland no search will be made
for her.
The method which Middlebrook is
alleged to have used in defrauding
the automobile dealers was to purchase
machine, paying a small amount on
account. He would then sell the ma
chine for small part Of its real value
and buy another automobile in the
same manner. He will be sent to
Oakland as soon as the officer who
has been sent for him arrives

RIPLEY PUSHES GALVESTON LINE
Means Through Line to Texas From
San Francisco

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2.-The Santa
Fe is rushing work on its Belen cut
off and it is reported that the next step
of President Ripley will be to push the
line to completion from Texico to San
Angelo and complete the Galveston line
to San Francisco.
In the country around Albuquerque
the Santa Fe has to contend against
several heavy curves, and the road IN
that section of the country is one of the
most difficult on the line.
The Belen cutoff will secure a grade
of less than eight-tenths of per cent
as maximum, and will allow the trains
to make more speed
The cutoff will begin at Rio Puergo
and will run to Texico to connect with
the Santa Fe line at that point, thus
giving trains easy access to Kansas
City.
With the line completed as far as
Texico it will be only short jump to
San Angelo. and the through line from
San Francisco to Galveston will be
opened
