few fights during the evening and only
once did serious trouble threaten. One

floor of the building until the crowd
could be dispersed After some time had
elapsed he departed in company with a

Cow Bell Is effective.

One of the most effective methods os
annoyance was conceived by a deiid with
q COW bell tied To long rope Waiting
until an unsuspectins party had passed
MIN he would hurl the cow bell 10 the
sidewalk just behind them The high
jump record was broken several times
during the evening with this aid to TO-
comotion.
The returns were received with rejoice
ing at Republican county headquarters,
while American. headquarters were
practically deserted by 80 clock. The
old time Republicans had their joy con-
siderably dampened by the reflection that
the victory had been dearly bought Many
OF them were not chary in stating that
the victory in the county was not worth
the price which had been paid.
At Democratic headquarters the news
was received with equanimity and al
though the party leaders Were disappoint-
ed at the showing made. they took the
defeat in a graceful way.

an early hour in the morning. The crowds

an eager crowd gathered to view the
returns and did not leave until the cleo

the crowd really desired TO find out how
the election was going. but the majority
of the mob which surged up and down

SANTA F[ ADMITS
PAYING REBATES
Refund of $4,000 to Associated
Oil Company Is Acknowl-
edged in Court

LOS ANGELES, April s.-Admitting
that more than $4,000 in refunds had
oeen given the Associated oil company
on shipments of oil out of Bakersfield.
edward Chambers, the assistant freight
traffic manager of the coast lines Of the
Santa F'e, on the stand today in the
hearing before the state railroad COM
mission. denied that these rates We're
discriminating, claiming that no other
producers shipped from Bakersfield to
the same points as the Associated COM
pany.
Chambers said that it was the inten
tion to publish the rates granted the
Associated oil company, but that com
pany protested, claiming the publishing
OF the rates would result in the re-
auction OF the price of oil in San Fran
cisco.
chambers also said that after many
refusals of President Ripley to agree to
Keep the low rate secret he finally
agreed to the payment of funds with
out the rate being published.
chambers said that the reduced rate
ala not apply to Stockton or middle
river points, and refunds given for
shipments to these points were made
by mistake and not by his order.
