Time to Collect.
The directors of the board of trade
held meeting at the CORTLAND Tues
day evening to consider several prop
psltions offered by industries that
wish to locate in Canton. They can
secure the factories but the board
has not raised near the amount OF
money necessary.
Secretary H.. c. Pontius says, that
, the trouble is not so much with the
citizens of Canton as with the solic-
itors being too busy to give the ne
cessary amount Of time to making
the collections He said that another
effort would be made in the near fu-
ture which would likely be more sue
cessful

TWO YEARS
To the Penitentiary For
Director Zim-
norman.
BANKER PLEADS GUILTY

Y
Cleveland. o., Nov. 13.--For conspir-
ing I'm the wrecking of the Wooster
National bank, j. R. Zimmerman, for
merly director in the bank, was SEN
fenced to two years Imprisonment in
the penitentiary and fined $4,000 by
Judge Tayler in the United States
district court Tuesday. Tears burst
from the bankers eyes when judg
ment was pronounced.
He had expected lighter sentence
upon his plea of guilty. following a
midnight conference Monday night
between his attorneys and United
States Attorney Sullivan. 1t was
agreed at the conference that thinner
man should plead guilty upon one
count. and that Sullivan should ask
that the remaining counts be nolled.
Zimmerman will be taken to Co
lumbus Wednesday to begin his term
of Imprisonment. He passed Tues
day in United States Marshal Chand-
ler's Office, bidding farewell to friends.
Because of strained feeling existing
between Zimmerman and L. P. Ohl-
iger, friends contrived to prevent
meeting between the two men.
Ohliger had been brought from the
penitentiary, where he is serving a
six-year sentence to testify against
his former business partner and bank
associate. He had promised to reveal
in court everything concerning the
transactions which ended in the break
ing of the bank and his flight wit
Zimmerman 10 Canada.
With his guard, the former presi-
dent came to the federal building a
few minutes before the opening of
court, but was hurried away before
Zimmermans arrival.
"But l will meet him soon in Co
lumbus,' said Ohliger. Il have no
complaint at any arrangement that
will lessen his punishment"
Judge Smyser, Zimmerman's attor-
ney, wept as he asked Judge Tayler
for mercy.
II have known him from boyhood,"
said Smyser, "and he has known Oil
iger. He trusted Ohliger as infallible.
AS a director he failed in his duty to
the bank, but he had no intention of
dishonesty
The count to which Zimmerman
pleaded guilty charges him with aid
ing and abbetting misuses of $413.12.
AS treasurer of the Royai .Arcanum,
this money had been used by Zim-
norman in the wholesale business in
which he was interested with Ohliger.
When he had to make showing to
the order, Ohliger issued New York
draft for the amount, although 1t had
not been deposited with the bank.
Two months later Zimmerman gave
the bank a check for the amount.
The sentence and fine imposed was
the limit for the offense charged In
the one count.
Judge Tayler paid Sullivan a high
compliment In nolleing the counts, re-
ferring to the II Ohio banks which
have been involved in trouble and
whose guilty officials Sullivan has pun
ished
eff I were in doubt as to the pro-
priety and justice of noileing these
counts" said the judge, "the word OF
the district attorney would be enough
to satisfy me that such a course is
proper and justified"

Democratic Candidate for United States Congress
Says Main Issue Is to Wrest San Pedro
Harbor From Inexorable Grasp
of Greedy Corporations

an aggressive and patriotic young maj
who already has to his credit severa
victories over corporation interest;
during the six years which he has beer
the city attorney of his home towr
of Pomona.
Victorious Over Corporations
In three oe these victories the people
of the entire state of California are
the beneficiaries. One of the cases was
that of the Southern Pacific against
Pomona. which Mr.. Loucks, a city at
torney, too. to the supreme court and
won, thereby, settling over the entire
state the right of the people to use
for street purposes lands of railroads
The decision has resulted to the ben
eft of every city or town through
which railroad passes, and it was
one of the worst defeats the Southern
Pacific has ever sustained in the courts
of California, $3.50.
Another was known as the three gas
cases, in which Mr.. Loucks was given
decision Which establishes the, right
Of every city in the state to regulate
gas and electric light rates.
Another which Mr. Loucks has
fought successfully to the United
States circuit court, is against the
Sunset Telephone company to compel
that corporation to pay all cities for
the use of public streets.
Squeezed Water Out
In the case of the Consolidated
Water company against the city of
Pomona Mr.. Loucks had the salts
faction of squeezing $230.000 worth of
water out of the company's stocks and
bonds.
This is only a portion of the legal
achievements of man who now is
only. thirty-three years of age, Mr..
Loucks was born in Baton Rouge, La,
in 1879, but for twenty-three years he
has been a resident of Los Angeles
county. He attended the public
schools of Pomona, then went y to
Claremont college and later graduated
from the Los Angeles Law school.
Mr.. Loucks has established congress
sional headquarters at 435 Stimson
block, Los Angeles, and his campaign
promises to be an energetic one.

Did | know for an absolute GER
tainty that l would be defeated at the
polls ON the 9th of November I would
make just as hard a fight as l intend
making under conditions as they now
exist, for it is a fight in the interest
of the people and against corporate
greed; 1t is fight to wrest the great
San Pedro harbor from the ever
Tightening grasp of the Southern Pa
cific and it's allied interests. and
whether l win or whether l am de-
feated the fight will go on, and /
hope that ultimately the people will
be victorious and the harbor again be
placed in the hands of the people,
where it rightfully belongs"
Full of Patriotism
This statement was made by Robert
G. Loucks, the Democratic nominee for
congress from the Seventh district,
and it shows that the opponent of
Congressman McLachlan is imbued
with a spirit of patriotism far above
that of the average office-seeker or
the average officeholder.
Mr. Loucks shows that he is fight
ing the battle for the people, and he
displays his patriotism by declaring
that should he be defeated, he will
harbor as against the giant corpora
tions which are crushing the life out
of the great project which means so
much to not only Los Angeles city
and county. but the entire southern
section of California.
Mr. Loucks has not only the right
on his side, but he has demonstrated
that he has the ability to put up a
fight that will make his Republican
opponent, backed by the Southern Pa
cific and other corporations, make a
livelier campaign than he is wont to
do in order to perpetuate his long
continued hold upon the office of con-
gresham.
Entrenched behind what he believes
is a Republican majority which cannot
be overcome, Congressman McLachlan
has considered himself practically re-
elected, but now he is waking up to
the fact that he has for an opponent

BOYS ARE UNDER SUSPICION
They Are Thought to Have Held Up
a Garvanza Laboring
Man

Two boys are accused of being the
robbers who early yesterday morning
held up Peter Becker, a Garvanza la
boring man. on Market street, between
Main and Los Angeles.
Becker claims that the boys ac-
costed him as he was walking toward
Spring street. One Of them delivered
terrific blow on the back of Becker's
head, while the other struck him over
the right eye. They then robbed him,
he says, of $17.50.

mer who were recently arrested for the
perpetration of robberies in this city
and Long Beach.

MUSCULAR CHRISTIANITY
DISPLAYED BY NEGRO
ATTEMPTS TO CONVERT A FELL
LOW WORKMAN
His Vigorous Ehortation Ends in His
Arrest on Suspicion of Insanity.
Indignantly Denies That He Is a
"Holy Roller"

A pitiable case of insanity was seen
at the central police station yesterday
afternoon. John Brown, a negro plas-
terer living at 2s4 Dayton avenue. was
taken there, charged with mental de-
rangement, for "only talking" as the
poor fellow said to the desk sergeant,
with a pathetic look of incomprehen-
sion,
John was working with a man named
Lawrence in a house at Fortieth and
Woodlawn. Suddenly he began to eX-
hort his companion loudly to give up
the folly of his sinful life and become
Christian. He not only exhorted, but
is said to have begun physical chastise-
ment when Lawrence became appre-
hensive that his sinful life would be
the cause of violent treatment from his
friend, and he fled from the place to
call an officer who was In the neighbor-
hood.
Told to Exhort
When he arrived at the police station
Browr had cooled down, and he talked
quite rationally at times, although
occasionally his conversation gave evil
dence of insanity.
"God whispahed In nah car, 'Exhort

smiling innocently "and then L began
to plead with nah dear, sinful friend.

THE STORY or
PEARY'S TRIP.
Attic Explorer Reaches Sidney
N. S., His Fight for Earth
est North.

SYDNEY, n. S. Nov. 24.-Flying the
flag of the United States, which had
been placed nearer the pole than any
other national standard, weather beat
en- and torn and disabled, the Peary
arctic steamer Roosevelt arrived under
sail and steam after sixteen months
vain effort to reach the pole. Though
not entirely successful, the expedition
nevertheless got to 81 degrees 6 min
utes north latitude, or 20112 miles from
the pole.
Commander Peary came ashore al
most Immediately after the steamer
came to anchor and joined Mrs. Peary'
who has been here for two weeks
waiting for her husbands return.
The Roosevelt shows no sign OF
rough usage. She looks sound about
the hull, except aft, under counter
where she shows the effect of a broken
rudder. The flag which the Arctic club
gave the ship flies from the main truck
and the ensign given by the Geograph-
zeal society from the mizzen.
Commander Peary looks in the best
of health and spirits and. though dis
appointed at the failure to reach the
pole, nevertheless feels satisfied with
the advance actually made, and prob
ably plans for another expedition viii

SECRET OF FACTORY
ON WOODBRIDGE CREEK
Court'Of Errors and Appeals Hears
Case Brought by Vulcan De-
timing Company.

TRENTON, Nov. 24:-Argument
was commenced in the court of error
and appeals in the case of the Vulcan
DEFINING Company, whose factory is
on Woodbridge creek between Maur-
er and Sewaren. appellant, and the
American Can Company and others,
respondents. The Vulcan DEFINING
Company sued the can company in
chanCery for fraudulently getting
possession Of and using the plain
t.n'S secrets for defining ans. The
Vylccl Company claimed to have Sc
cured these secrets from an old Ger
man professor, and alleged that it
had paid highly for them. When the
American Can Company was formed,
it being a combination of a number
of other can companies, its purpose
was 10 make cans only, but later, ac-
cording to the bill of complaint, ii Sc
cured The defining secrets from the
Vulcan Company's workmen and COM
menced work along that line.
Vice-Chancellor Bergen dismissed
the Vulcan Company's bill of com
plant in %chancery, and the defeated
company, which is alleged to be the
trust, filed an appeal in the court of
error, last February, alleging error il
the vice-chancellor's decision.
McCarter and English represented
the Vulcan Company and L%indabury,
DeDue and Faulks fhe American Can
Company. The latter company's con
t%ention is that the Vulcan Company
had fraudulently secured its own Sc
cret process in defining, and it was
not improper, therefore, to get these
secrets from the Vulcan Company in
any manner possible. Decision was
reserved.
