ANeEtENos REACHING OUT FOR

Organization Effected in Northern City
for Purpose of contestlng In
Territory North of
Tehachapl

Alarmed by the manner in which
wholesale merchants in Los Angeles
are reaching out after trade, the trafflc
bureau of the San Francisco mer-
chants exchange is planning steps to
head off the enterprising southerners,
According to dispatches from San
Francisco, the merchants there will
contest with Los Angeles for the COM
mercial supremacy in that part OF fhe
state north of the Tehachapi. An or
ganization was effected yesterday at a
meeting of the traffic bureau of the
merchants exchange.
According to r. P. Rithet, temporary
chairman of the San Francisco bureau
Los Angeles merchants have largely
encroached upon the trading territory
served by the merchants of San Fran
cisco.
1t is said that Los Angeles wholesale
houses had gradually extended their
shipping territory northward from the
Tehachapi until it was found neces-
sary to take some steps to protect the
commercial interests of this city and
prevent further encroachments by the
southern metropolis.
Wholesalers in Los Angeles say they
do not consider the Tehachapi neces-
sarily a boundary line for their efforts
and expect to go after trade wherever
opportunity offers.

MAYR'S LAWYER
DID NOT OBJECT
EARL ROGERS SUCCEEDS IN
READING DEPOSITION
cHILD's LIKENESS TO FATHER
AGAIN DISCUSSED
Family Feud Over Money Borrowed
by Defendant and Opinions OF
Relatives as to His Veraclty
Ventilated

Former Judge Britt, attorney for
Walter A. Mayr, who is contesting the
suit of Ann Eta Mayr for divorce in
the superior court, figuratively fell
asleep yesterday during the examina-
ton of Miss Marguerite Mayr by
failing to interpose an objection, ana
as a result Mrs. Mayr's attorney, Earl
Rogers. scored what is considered
valuable point in behalf of his client:
Depositfons from members or the
Mayr family had been offered time
and again for the purpose of discredit-
ing the testimony of Walter A. Mayr'
and also to show that there was
marked resemblance between the Mayr
baby and Mayr.
'If this thing is to be gone into" de-
clared Britt, II think the best evidence
is the appearance in court of the child.
Counsel" replied Rogers, has intro
duced here pictures of Joseph Calm,
and his purpose was to show some
fanciful resemblance between the child
and Calm. If the pictures OF Ganm
are admissible, statements OF Mayr
own mother, who has stood over his
cradle many times, should be admitted.
even when she says the child is Mayrs
living image"
The deposition of Paul A. Mayr,
brother of the defendant, was then In
troduced. His statements regarding
the resemblance OF the CIlllu u May
were not allowed to be read, and Miss
Mayr was called to the stand.
After a few preliminary questions
she was asked: WAS the child the
image of Walter Mayr"
The answer came promptly: HE was
not"
IBID you make that statement in
March, 1862"
Britt was on his feet instantly with
an objection, but the court ruled that,
as no objection had been offered to the
preceding question the second must De
answered.
II never said that at any time or
place or under any circumstances, re-
piled the witness firmly.
The foundation being laid, Rogers at
once introduced the deposition OF Mayrs
brother, reading but one question and
the answer thereto, as follows:
what, if anything, has been said in
regard to the resemblance of the baby
and father?'
''My sister told me he was the dead
image of Walter" the deposition read.
and with this the attorney appeared
satisfied.
Yesterday was a day of dispositions
in the case, and their reading developed
the fact that, prior to Mayr's marriage,
the family was divided into two fac
lions as the result of a financial trans
action in which Mayr was alleged to
have borrowed $1,000 from his mother,
the note being written by himself. He
is said to have inserted the rate of in
terest on the note at IL per cent, which.
under the laws of Illinois, is regarded
