GREAT FALLS. Mont. Jan. 1s.-Af-
ter winning $4,000 in a local pool room
on the races at Oakland and Ascot.
William II. Molden. a telegraph opcr-
ator in the employ OF the Postal Tele-
graph Company. was arrested yester-
day on a charge of having sent false
messages. The pool room management
alleged that he was party to a sue
cessful wire tapping scheme.
Molden commenced betting with SO
and made three bets which netted him
$3.50. 1t was learned later by the
manager of the pool room that false
returns had been received over their
wire, as two of the horses on which
Moiden had cashed bets were not win
ners on the days card.
When arrested Molden declared that
he had done the betting for another
man, stranger to whom he had turn
ed over his winnings and from whom
he had received 800 for his services.
He was unable to describe this man.
No other arrests have been made.

SPOKANE WILL De
WITHOUT FUEL
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

SPOKANE. Wash, Jan. 16.-Spokane's
supply of coal was completely exhaust
ed today, and dealers declare there is
no prospect of replenishing the supply
within a week. Messages from their
mines indicate there is no fuel en- route
and cars cannot be started in the i'm
mediate future. So acute has the fuel
famine become that the Oregon Rail-
road and Navigation Company has an
nulled all freight trains and the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific are
making no attempt to handle through
freight. Local freights are being
moved only by the confiscation of cars
of coal that Lave been consigned to
private dealers.
The oregon Railroad and Navigation
Company is in great danger of being
forced to suspend passenger service to-
morrow. and the condition on other
lines is such that they may be in a sim
liar position within the present week.
The Spokane International, which de-
rives its supply from the British CO.
lumbia mines via the Canadian Pacific,
has been unable to procure coal this
week, and dispatches from their source
of supply were in effect that no coal
would be available for a week. as the
Canadian Government had threatened
to cancel its agreement with the Cana
dian Pacific If the latter permitted coal
to cross the boundary while Smelters
and factories are closing down in Brit
ish Columbia for want of fuel
While sufficient wood is in the Spo-
kane yards to supply private residences

sitting in a box OF the Orpheum Thea
ter here last night by Detective Free

ing passed worthless checks amounting
to about $500. During a colloquy with
her escort, following her arrest at the
theater and in which the latter de-
clined to put up $3.50 bail money. the
young woman angrily threatened to
make disclosures and exclaimed that
her real name was Sicl1ley.
The woman is said TO be a widow.
She is unusually beautiful and OF a
Spanish cast Of features. She made
no serious objection TO being taken to
Pasadena and left for there in charge
OF the officer last night. Her escort
declined to discuss the case and dis

a square fight. Jeffries asserts that he
will stop the fight at the first indica-
tion of crooked work on the part of
either of the men and declare it no
contest. He has made an appointment
with both Baker and Attell for tomor-
row afternoon and at that time he will
tell them just what they may and may
not do. He wants to know positively
beforehand what their agreement may
be with reference to breaking and
whether smuggling in the clinches shall

The members of the California An
giers' Association met at 1919 O'Far-

posed legislation tc protect me game
and the table fishes of California
waters from threatened extinction. The
latter condition applies particularly to
the striped bass, upon which the mar
ket fishermen are making serious in
roads.
While the anglers discussed the ad-
visibility of asking Ior a closed sea
son of two years on bass. it was finally
decided to ask Tor closed season of

SHRIMP FISHERMEN BLAMED

John Davis. a former deputy Fish
Commissioner, explained to the anglers
that the Chinese shrimp fishermen de-
stroyed more young nsh of various
kinds in their nets than any other
agency. He said that if four months
closed season for shrimps were imposed
it would be found an effective method
of protecting the bass. There was
such a law on the statute books, but it
was repealed at the last session of the
Legislature. Davis urged that the
salmon law stand as at present and that
it be not extended five more days, as
the representatives of the canneries
desired He said it meant the TAX
ing of more fish in those few days
than the Sacramento River could stand.
After a long discussion it wa de-
cided that the members preferred the
trout season to remain as at present,
prom April /. instead of from May /,
as proposed by the members of the Cali
fornia Game and Fish Protective AS
sociation at their recent convention.
Several of the speakers last night held
that the only fishing in the Paper
Mill and other streams in Marin,
Napa. Sonoma and Contra Costa coun-
ties was in April. E. A. Mocker sec
retary of the Game and Fish Protective
Association. advanced the view that the
reason the coast streams were depleted
so quickly wa sthat an army of fish
ermen visited them in April and prac-
tically fished them out at once.
LIMIT ON SIZE OF TROUT
The Anglers Association decided to
recommend to the Legislature that a
limit of six inches in length be placed
upon the trout to be taken from the
streams of the State.
The officers of the association are:
President. James Watt: first vice presi-
dent. ID. NJ. Sachs: second vice presi-
dent. Achille Roos; secretary w. r.
