sultation with the mayor and the chair
man Of the finance committee of the re-
lief funds,

that the question of building homes for
those living in camps and the work
men who will be needed for the re-
building of the business district is the
most important part of the whole relief

1t is proposed to advance to property
owners part of the money needed for
the rebuilding of homes. These loans
will be repaid in monthly installments.
1t Is proposed to extend this aid to
persons in all parts of the city without
regard to whether their homes were
burned.

hotels are incorporated.
The auditor notified the two COM
panies to hold their employees in readi-

testify concerning the contracts, leases
and other matters.
The state, by this move, seeks to OBJ
tain informa tion concerning the rela-
tions of the hotel companies and the

raided under the direction of the attor-
ney general.
Nelther Mr.. Taggart nor Mr.. Sinclair
raised OBJECTION to the demand. This is
the first proceeding that has ever been
brought under this act. ...
The suits brought by the two hotel
companies to cancel the leases of the
casinos because of the violation of the
anti-gambling clauses in them,. were
called before Judge Buskirk at Paoli

TRAILING NERVY
YOSEMITE BANDIT
DwsIlers in Mountains Subjected to
Searehlight Exaninations--Drag-
net Policy Being Pursued
by Two Sheriffs
BY Associated Press.


FRESNO, July 1o.-Word has come
from Raymond, MADEIRA county that
Jack Sweet the Grub sulch miner,
suspected of being the Yosemite stage
holdup, established an alibi and was
released from custody.
Aside from this there is no addi-
tional information regarding the affair.
The sheriffs of MADEIRA and Mariposa
counties are continuing the search.
A dragnet policy is being pursued
by them as they are convinced that
the highwayman lives not far away
and that he has buried or secreted his
treas in a cabin or some out -of-the-
way spot
Dwellers in the mountains have been
asked to agree to a search of their
premises. showing no discrimination as
between suspected or unsuspected citi-
zens.
The camp of the robber near the
scene of the holdup at Advance has been
found. 1t is certain he prepared sew
eral meals there and burned his dis
guise after the nervy exploit.
The trail led to Grub guleh and finally
was lost in a rocky country not far
from the home of Sweet, wherefore he
was compelled to give an account of
himself as he did one year ago under
somewhat similar circumstances.

derstanding that the resumption of

the purpose of revlving the Peoples
United States bank would be deemed
sufficient ground for revoking the or

bearing the words "baby for SALE" and

SAYS MONROE DOCTRINE
Is NATIONAL GREED
YALE MAN ATTACKS SYSTEM IN
WELCOMING EDUCATORS
I'VE Have Been Advancing the Fall
lacy Of Forcing Republican Form
Of Government on Other Nations"
Declares Professor Wheeler

BY Associated Press,
NEW HAVEN, Conn, July 10.-Ir
extending the Yale welcome to the
American Institute of Education a the
opening of the national convention
here last night, Prof. Arthur NJ. Wheel
er of the history department vigor-
ously attacked the Monroe doctrine and
deplored the present spirit of money
getting at the sacrifice of right princi-
plaes.
He said in part:
THE Monroe doctrine. which is the
eleventh commandment of this govern
ment, is the embodiment of national
greed and Selfishness. A recent secre-
tary of state is quoted as saying that
this government in. foreign affairs was
run on a principle that was a COM
bination of the golden rule and the
Monroe doctrine:
Hard to AssimiIate
THE man that can associate the two
and assimilate them must be a wonder
full scientist and mathematician.
I'm following out this doctrine we
have been carried away with the theory
that our particular form of government
was fitted for every nation in every
stage of development and no more
crazy illusion ever entered mans mind
"a IePuDiiCdH IoIlll VI government Is
the worst possible for certain nations
but we have been advancing the fallacy
of forcing this on others.
LAS a nation we think we must also
advance our relgion-the Christian re-
ligion-even if it takes gunboats to do
it and it has to be spread at the point
of the bayonet."
Prof. Wheeler also deplored the pres
ent money greet and the great combi-
nations with their betrayal of public
trust.

A second visit to the Standard Oil

Tomorrow, it is expected, will be the

brought out by that testimony, today,
of sensational character is under billing

Central lines has caused hundreds of
cars of the Standard Oil company to
be billed to contain only about half of
the amount with which they were
really loaded This undertaking, it is
charged, was done largely out of Find

A large part of the days testimony
related to alleged determinations on oil
shipments where both the Standard Oil
company and the Independent COM
panies used their own private car
equipment.
According to the reports from the
jury room the government has so far
been unable to substantiate the charge
that the Standard Oil company was
receiving storage charge rebates on oil
shipped from Cleveland to Chicago. .

ports, that the oil stored in Chicago

bates was shipped from Whiting, Ind,
for the last several years, and not from

this afternoon was w. e. Macewan, a
former employe in the auditing depart
