SOCIALISTS LEAD IN SCRAP
Pasadena Election Forced by Filing
of Socialist Notice of
Primaries

PASADENA, Jan. 18.-The Socialists
of Pasadena have forced the hand of
the other local parties of older stand
ing in the coming municipal election
by declaring their Intention to hold pri-
maries for the election of delegates to
attend a city convention and nominate
the party ticket for the coming NUM-
cipal election. The following petition
was presented and dissipated the yarns
that have been stealing into political
gossip that no petitions would be filed
for primaries and no conventions would
be held by the old line parties:
Pasadena, Cal, Jan. II, 1907.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Pasadena:
Gentlemen: The Socialist party,
through it's proper officers and COM
mittees, notify your honorable body of
the intention of said party to partici-
pate in the city primary election for
the purpose of electing delegates to a
city convention of said party, to make
nominations of candidates for public
officers to be voted for at the next
ensuing city election, and request that
a ballot be provided for said Socialist
party at the official city primary cleo
ton and that the appointment of dele
gates to said convention shall be re-
spectively, one delegate for every ten
QO) votes fraction or additional frac-
tional part thereof, polled by said party
in each Pasadena city ward and an
nexed city territory or subdivision
thereof at the last general municipal
election.
The said Socialist convention shall
consist of forty-five (45) delegates, as
follows:
First ward, II delegates: Second
ward, 10 delegates; Third ward. dele

alleged kidnapping and as a result Capt.
Hall has no charge against him.
Now the young women of San Diego

also may be accused of being kidnapped

riety hurled at their unoffending heads.
AS for Capt. Hall, he is coming north
to file suit for libel for statements
printed about him while the yellow ink
pot was fuming and bubbling with the

threatens to demand a strong cash
balm for the names of pirate" "kid-
naper" and various other appellations
heaped on him.

PASADENA, Jan. 1S.-Miles Almy,
the millionaire veteran stock broker of
Chicago, the man who is a perfect
double of John d. Rockefeller, the
Standard Oil magnate, was arrested to-
day.
Miles Almy spends his winters at Ho-
tel Maryland in Pasadena. His annual
trips here have gained many friends
for him and 1t is one of the pleasures
of a lifetime to enter into conversation
with him. He is accomplished, versa
tile and has a wide knowledge of many
public matters and world doings that
lend him the qualities of a brilliant
conversationalist.
But despite the fact that his personal
appearance inspires the feeling of the
presence of Rockefeller, and despite the
fact that personally he Is law abid
ing citizen, he has been arrested on
charge that duplicates him in the
doings of DIR. ]. Grant Lyman, the
stock broker who skipped between days
when officers were searching for him at
Hotel Green on a charge entered by
Goldfeld brokers who charged that he
had mulcted them to the extent of
many thousands.
Specifically the charge states that
Almy sold as an agent of Lyman stocks
in the fake GreenWater copper project,
stocks amounting to the total of $5600
Wallace II. Hopkins company of Chi
cago were the purchasers, and the OFF,
cials of the concern stated, when they
swore to the complaint, that they be-
lieved Almy's guarantee that the Bos-
ton Greenwater Copper company
stock was choice, and further allege
that Almy promised to redeem the stock
in Goldfield.
They purchased 10000 shares of the
stock through Almy, who answers their
statement by an emphatic denial that
he guaranteed any of the stock, but
merely handled 1t as a broker.
The complaint on which the warrant
was sworn out for Miles Almy was
sworn to by G.. 3. Burton Of Goldheld,
and charges specifically obtaining
money under false pretenses.
A representative of The Herald
talked with Mr.. Almy this evening at
the Maryland and while he claimed a
previous social acquaintance with DR..
Lyman, he denied being associated with
him in a business way prior to last
October, when Lyman wrote him ask
ing him to handle as his broker large
block of Greenwater stock. He claimed
in the letter than the stock belonged
to Mrs. Lyman, who was then In Bos-
ton.

on the San Francisco exchange made 1t

and outside of assuring myself of this
fact l did not investigate 1t further"

FENCES DOWN
in Avalon Harbor Reopens
and Injunction Proceedings Are
Threatened Over Wharf
Differences

Exciting times prevailed at Avalon
harbor Catalina island, yesterday when
the Meteor Boat company hurled def
ance at the Banning company.
The owners of the glass-bottomed
boats refused to accept the Banning
orders as to wharfage and rammed the
wire fence recently put in place by the
owners of the island. They selected
their own landing place, with disas-
trous results.
The none too strong wire and post
affair came down from the battering
inflicted by the Meteor boats, and ev-
erybody is wondering what the next
move will be.
Representatives of the Bannings say
that an offer was made to build a spe-
cial wharf for the Meteor company, and
that there was no occasion for an out
break. The best of feeling has always
prevailed between the parent and sub
sidiary company heretofore.
1t is believed that the boating privi-
leges will be rlken away form the re-
bellious boat owners, and it is proba-

LONG BEACH. Jan. 1S.-In order

West Long Beach, who imagined that

ance there last night by crying out
that he had murdered a man. Officers
Taylor and Phillips, who followed the
man along the wharf for some dis

said had stolen $50 from him. The rob-
berry proved to have existed only in
Goodrich's imagination and to have
been conceived by him after he had
partaken of too much San Pedro bot
tied cheer.
When hailed before Judge Hart this
morning he was still hilarious and
fiippantly asked the judge to give him
ten years at hard labor. The recorder
did the best he could under the cir
cumstances and sent Goodrich up for

RATS STOP WORK
Of PROSECUTION
DISTRICT ATTORNEY GIVES UP,
DISGUSTED
Refuses to Bring Case Against Captain
Hall for Alleged kidnapping of
Dora Dennis of Rover
Fame

The last wet blanket was thrown on
the elegant fabrication of the alleged
kidnapping of Dora Dennis when yester-
day District Attorney Kirby of San
Diego county refused to continue the
proceedings in prosecution of Capt. A.
w. Hall, the alleged kidnaper, after
having heard Dora Bennis' own story
of her cruise on the Rover.
Doras obstinacy throughout the case
in refusing to be kidnapped or abused
has caused a certain story of a wild
tale of the seat to dwindle down to
sequel of Wrecked on the Waves of
the Los Angeles River"
When the young woman went out on
the jaunty little cruise as cabin boy for
the Rover, a little boat in search of
treasure, she had no idea of being kid
naped. She just went along for fun.
When Capt Halls idea of the way
boat should be managed conflicted with
the views entertained by the crew they
put him down on a neck of land, gave
him provisions and told him to enjoy
the balmy atmosphere by walking back
to San Diego
Refuses to Be Rescued
Even then Dora would not have been
kidnapped by anybody unless there had
been a special commissioner to loom up
big in the fog and encourage his men.
Then some yellow journalists got to-
gether and began a series of articles
and before poor little Dora knew what
had happened she had been kidnapped.
How she could be kidnapped while a
hundred miles at sea with no one but
friends about her the girl has never
learned, but she had to be kidnapped or
a special commissioner could not have
been sent after her and she could not
have been rescued.
In the meantime Capt. Hall had
shbwn up at Ensenada and told his
story. That was all we'll and good un-
til the longest creased liar in the world
notified the Mexican authorities to
hold Hall while beVy of special COM
missioners impressed on District At
torney Kirby's mind the alleged fact
of Dora's kidnapping.
Old man Hall loafed about Ensenada
for a few weeks while his victim, the
beautiful Dora, was shooting biscuits"
on board the Rover, and then while the
rescue boat was down in the southern
waters chasing the albatross with a
lemon tied to it's tail, the Rover with
Dora aboard arrived in San Pedro har-
Dor.
When asked about her kidnapping
Dora said rats" She might have
said rodents, but she didn't. She just
said rats" That rather squelched the
rescue party OF special commissioners,
some Others besides those in the Orient
having gone down to try and convince
Dora that she was rescued, but Dora
refused to listen to them.
When She arrived In San Diego she
was sent for by the district attorney
