THREE REPUBLICS
FORM COALITION
New Combination of Powers Appears
on Central American Checker
board-Force Evacuation
of Hondurac
Rv Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PUERTO CORTEZ, Honduras, July
27, via New Orleans, July 2.-Within the
last few days a new combination has
appeared on the Central American
checkerboard of five republics where
President Zelaya has been maneuver-
ing for several months by means of
revolutionary plots to consolidate the
five countries under one government.
The combination is reported to be Hon
duras, Guatemala and Salvador.
The first move of the new combina-
tion was to force the evacuation of
Honduras by Nicaraguan troops. Since
the evacuation the defeated generals of
former President Manuel Bonilla have
been returning to their country.
1t is reported that Zelaya did not
yield to the demand for evacuation
until his envoy, Gamez, who recently
conferred with President Diaz of Mex
leo, received the refusal of Diaz to act
with Nicaragua in an attack upon Qua
temala. 1t is reported also that Nicara-
qua has already spent between $1,000, 900
and $3,O00,000 in the attempts to place
men of Zelaya's choice in the presiden-
tial chairs of other republics and that
the people are discontented with the
large expenditures. Nicaragua issued
about $2,000,000 in treasury notes. per-
centage of which has to be redeemed in
customs duties.

Mrs. Hawley, who is programmed
under her maiden name of Frances
Haight, and plays the captive Ameri-
cano girl is also a real westerner. She
was born in Colorado, but has lived
also in New Mexico and Texas.
The third member of the company,
William Miles, is at home in Los An
geles. During the engagement of the
company at the Orpheum he is resid-
ing with his brother-in-law, Frank K.
Wilson, a well known mining man, on
West Adams street. From here Mr..
Miles goes to New York, where he has

tTHE BANDIT" which Frederick

ETHE BANDIT" which Frederick
Hawley and his company are
presenting at the Orpheum, is
not really melodrama, though billed as
such. 1t should properly be described
as a tragedy, but Mr.. Hawley thinks
vaudeville managers would shy at the
title. The bandit captures the daughter
of his ancient enemy and intends hold
ing her for ransom, but discovers that
she is his own child whom an unfaith-
full wife had carried away in her flight
with another man. Rather than nave
the daughter know her real parentage
the bandit commits suicide by exposing
himself to the rifle of one of his SEN
tries.
When written 1.-THE Bandit" was in
tended for another actor, but was re-
fused and carried about in Mr.. Haw-
lev's trunk for many months. 1t was
only in response to his wife's insistence
that he tried it out before an eastern
manager, who offered him long con-
tract without hesitation.
The characters of ""The Bandit are
copied from men who have come under
Mr.. Hawley's own observation while
enlisted in the Texas Rangers. The
story is one familiar to every traveller
who visits Eagle Pass, where the guide
never fails to relate the tale or Co
chise Ramonde. The bandit and his
servant are faithfully copied from the
Mexican types along the Texas border,
and differ somewhat in character ana
costume from the types met in South
ern California.
Frederick Hawley is the son of
cavalry officer who served through the
Indian wars in North Dakota and after
ward in New Mexico, and was with
his father at Fort Lincoln. N. D.. when
Gen. custer set out on the expedition

Head of Trucking Firm and Manager
Of Associated Press Are Being
Given Most Favorable
Consideration

Two men are being considered by
Mayor Harper, 1t is stated, to fill the
vacancy on the police board caused by
the retirement of Samuel Schenck-
Charles H. Fuller of the Pioneer Truck
company, and John Elliott, south
western manager of the Associated
Press.
Mr.. Fuller is an old resident, sue
cessful business man at the head OF
big business enterprise, his friends
urge. and is acceptable to the city coun-
ell. several councilmen stated yester-
day.
Mr.. Elliott some years ago became
known throughout Kansas as the lone
editor who single-handed fought Cy
Leland. the Republican boss there, and
even had to do Jail service for time
before the factional fight was over. He
was editor of the Troy (Kas) Times
then He is now in charge OF the Los
Angeles and Southern California, Ari-
zona and New Mexico service of the
vast news association.
All day long yesterday wire pulling
was in progress for this and that can
djdate. The list last Saturday opened
with twenty, which by elimination has
been reduced to about half a dozen,
All are Republicans, as bipartisan
board is required.

Councilmen Healy and Lyon are said
to have urged the appointment of G. II,
Zuchetti, who conducts an Italian news
paper and is well known among the
foreign element and their descendants.
Rev. Baker P. Lee brother of Brad
ner Lee, and Joseph Mesmer are also
mentioned as possibilities.
At noon yesterday a complaint was
issued against Schenck, sworn to by At
torney Lee before City Prosecuting At
torney Fleming. The charge is a mis-
demeanor. Pleading was set for July
at 10 a. m.
Capt. Flammer sent Detective Charles
Jones out to get Schenck at l o'clock.
Jones was still looking for Schenck
when the latter walked into Justice
Roses court and said he understood
they wanted him. Schenck had been at
the city hall until after 2.
Attorney Asks Delay
Paul w. Schenck, the brother of
Samuel and law partner of Earl Rogers,
appeared for his brother. He told the
court that the earliest time he could
appear in the case would be next Mon
day morning.
I'VE waht to try this case as soon as
possible and would like to have only
statutory delays allowed, your honor"
said one of the prosecuting attorneys.
But Schenck won, and the time for
pleading to the charge was set for July
s at 10 o'clock.
Justice Roses calendar is said by his
clerk to be filled until along in August
In September the judge will go on his
vacation.
Paul Schenck, brother of the former
police commissioner, said yesterday:
I'VE want to try the case as soon as
convenient, but Monday is the earliest
date 1 have. My law partner, Earl
Rogers, will be here from San Fran
cisco in a few days and we will try the
case together. Sam is guilty of no
criminal offense, and we will prove it,"
Attorney Lee, it is understood, has
abandoned all thought of prosecuting
Schenck civilly now. although he de-
clines to state his plans.

the amount they have accomplished

For three years they have worked

played several numbers and to the
sound of the music the members OF
the lower classes, the girls all in white,
marched to the front of the hall ana
took their seats.
H. G. r. Philip opened the program
with an interesting talk upon the start
and growth of the school, and tne sys-

scribed how seven years ago arthur

He spoke to him and asked him what

The boy answered to him he was not

know what he could do. That touched
Mr.. Let's, and he tried to think OF
some plan to help the boy. The idea
SLOWLY formed in his mind OF starting
a school for the employees of the
school.
In the fall of 1901 he wrote a letter
to the Superintendent of Los Angeles
