SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.
Los ANGELES, Dec. 27.-The people
of all California are today paying
Kinya Shima. of stockton. He has cor
nered the potato market and holds the
situation in the hollow of his hand.
He VIII be the virtual dictator of
prices until next seasons; he and the
Japanese companies he controls stand
TO sell their crop for $1,000, 900, and
Shima viii himself clean mp s250,00o.
This is the explanation of the high
figures paid for potatoes for three
months past, and explains why they
continue going higher. They may be
worth their weight in gold" two
months hence. so the housewife will
require a microscope to find a two
bits worth package when the grocer
makes delivery.
Shima, who is well known to the
japanese throughout the State, planned
his coup six years ago. when he
started on a small scale as a potato
grower in the Sacramento valley. He
worked until he and his companies
control practically all the potato lands
in the valley. Last year he thought
the time was ripe for his corner" and
he tried 1t, but failed. Somewhere
there were tens Of thousands of sacks
Of -spuds" he had not known about
and when he showed up prices he found
these stocks coming out of ware
houses. The corner" was broken.

MONEY AND HUSBAND CONE
Pitiful Tale Related By Woman Who Fled
from Gan Francisco
TELLS HOW SHE WAS FlcHEO or CON

Knows Was n Con-
spirator.

man who said he was mayor Of San
Francisco enters into the tale Of distress
and possible desertion related by Mrs..
Annie Biaucho to Superintendent Norris OF
the Associated Charities.
The woman is a German, who married
an Italian and survived the San Francisco
disaster. She and her year-old baby were
shipped to Omaha along with lot OF other
refugees. but before leaving Vincent her
husband. pred her loose from r,SOO
belonging 70 herself and infant and which,
she says, was deposited In the National
Bank Of California She received no word
from the husband until a few days ago,
when letter came from Florida stating be
had heard reports that she had been in
Des Moines consorting with another man.
This Mrs. Biaucho denies emphatically
and says she can prove she has been living
with hospitable strangers at Forty-nfth and
Grand avenue since she landed here. Re-
Gently she has been picking cherries TO
earn a living Notwithstanding the intl-
mated intention Of Vincent to drop her,
the woman says she still loves him and
wants to be his dear wife at a range some
what closer than the mileage between Ne
braska and Florida
Then Came the Crash.
Bne says sbUD was lott TO ner anu stVV 10
the infant by the death of her mother in
Germany. Her husband, 1t appears was a
painter, and the cash went on deposit. Then
came the morning of grinding shocks and
falling buildings, followed by Are. The
Biaucho family was In the midst OF the
mad flight for safety. Eventually, the
woman says, she was told that she, with
another woman, must leave, but that her
husband must remain to work clearing up
the debris and rebuilding the town. Be-
fore the parting he took her before another
man, represented to be the mayor of San
Francisco, and between them they induced
her to sign papers authorizing Vincent TO
draw the money from the bank, provided
this was possible. Then she and the baby
we're placed on a train and travelled as far
as Omaha, destitute and cared for by
strangers.
The long silence Of Vincent made the
woman fear for his safety, but the letter
from Florida aroused suspicious of his
faithlessness. The neighbors heard the
story and brought 1t to the Associated
Charities, and Superintendent Morris has
undertaken an investigation to bring UT
the facts and to determine II Vincent really
wants to abandon his wife and child, what
he has done with the $500 and why he
went to Florida,
Mrs. Blaucho says she does not now think
II was the real mayor Of San francisco

clusions on the study Of newspaper pic

saahoard Closes Big Deal.

The Seaboard Air Line railway has
just closed a deal for 90 acres Of land
at Cayce, this county, the price paid
being S1O,15O. The Seaboard officials
claim. that this purchase is made for
the purpose of putting their repair
shops, &C., but those who claim to
know, say that the deal indicates
something more-the erection thereon
of a power house and trolley tracks
that will connect with the Columbia
Augusta line.
It is said that parties holding land
in that section are holding fast to
their property, some of them refusing
big offers for their land.
This move on the part of the Sea-
board will fill a long felt want. It
will save the trouble of sending their
engines and cars either to Hamlet or
Savannah, as has heretofore been the
case. The Seaboard has spent large
sums of money in and around Colum-
bia during the last few years, and
this last deal means that they will ex-
pend twenty-five or thirty thousand
dollars more Immediately.
BY this move they will save large
sum in taxes; in the meantime it will
only help Lexington county, which is
now one Of the richest counties in the
State,
