EAGERLY DEv0URS GARBAGE
OF RESTAURANT

DUMPED INTO ALLEY
Man Of Educated Speech and Neatly
Dressed Explains Simply He
Is Out of Work and
Famished

Joseph Lomant, a middle-aged man,
neatly dressed and apparently from his
manner and conversation man of ed
ucation, was arrested at Sixth street
and Center place last night by Patrol
man Wyckoff and booked at the CEN
trail police station on suspicion.
When observed by the policeman Lo-
mant was eagerly searching pile of
restaurant refuse which had been
dumped into the alley to await the
coming of the garbage man. He formed
sandwiches out of bits of half-decayed
meat and slop-sodden bread and de-
voured them with almost ravenous ap-
petite.
IA the jail he explained simply that
he was hungry and out of work, had
no money and had taken the only
means at hand to satisfy his stomach.
+ What will be done with him today is
not known. He may be fed and turned
loose, or he may be charged with in
sanity and a commission of learned
men called to decide upon the condition
of his mind. Or, again, he may be
charged with vagrancy and sent to the
chain gang, where at all events he will
be certain of something to eat three
times a day.

masked robbers are again in evidence.
At an early hour today one of the rob-
bers operated successfully. and while
the amount secured from his victim
was small. he was businesslike and de-
termined.
Rudolph Korber, cook by occupa-

morning when he was held up by a
masked man, who presented a revolver
and commanded the victim to throw up
his hands.
The robber secured $500 from a vest
pocket of his victim. Then command
ing Korber to remain quiet the robber
backed away. Korber was so badly
scared that he remained quiet for fif-
teen minutes and then went to his
lodgings. After he had regained his
composure he ventured out on the
street and told his story of the rob-
berry to a policeman.

ANTIOCH, Cal, July 26.--Last night
at o'clock about 200 feet of the San
Joaquin river levee gave way on the
fertile Jersey island tract, located east
of here. flooding the entire island,
comprising nearly 1000 acres. The loss
will be about $4,000, and falls prin-
cipally upon the Jersey Island COM
pany, although there are many small
farmers who held leases that will lose
everything as their crops were all
ready to harvest.
The Jersey Island company had 300
acres of the finest celery in the river
section, estimated at 5000 carloads, that
would have been ready to harvest in
about two months. There were also
500 acres of potatoes besides other
vegetables.
Nothing will be saved. Besides this
direct loss, all the bitches used for
draining the land will be ruined. Also
thousands of young celery plants that
were ready for planting are under
water.
1t was intended to make this one of
the largest celery fields in the state.
Two dredges and a pile driver, all
equipped with material and men, are
working tonight endeavoring to close
the break, and those In charge believe
this will be accomplished within two
days.

CASTRO'S ACTION
CAUSES TROUBLE
RESIDENTS OF CURACAO HOLD
DEMONSTRATION
MoBS COMPEL VENEZUELAN TO
APOLOGIZE
Members of Family Forced to Play
Dutch National Hymn While
People Shout "Long Live
WiIheIminal"

BY Associated Press.
WILLEMSTAD, Curacao. July 26.A-
The relations between Venezuela and
the people of the island of Curacao,
Dutch West Indies, are strained to the
breaking point following long series
of what the residents. of Curacao re-
gard as antagonistic actions on the
part of President Castro directed
against themselves and the Dutch gov
ernment.
Mobs gathered in force last night and
today and expressed their resentment
in an attack upon the home Of Vene-
zuelan who had published statements
in Venezuelan papers derogatory to the
island, and later held violent demon
strations in front of the residence of
the Venezuelan consul, surrounding the
German consulate where he had taken
refuge, and compelled the ordering out
of armed troops so that the consul
might be protected from injury.
The demonstration before the resi-
dence of the Venezuelan consul. Senior
Lopez, occurred late last night, and
although no actual attack was made
it is stated that two shots were fired
from the consuPs house, no one, how
ever, being injured.
Prior to this, about 10 o'clock, a mob
numbering about 1000 gathered in front
of the dwelling of a Venezuelan resi-
dent, who it is alleged, had insulted
Curacao in the Venezuelan papers,
broke down the doors with stones, and
seizing the man compelled him to sign
a paper which set forth an elaborate
excuse for the punishment of the state
ments with which he was charged.
, Makes Public Apology
The leaders of the populace also
forced him to make a public apology
from the balcony of his home while the
crowd below hooted and groaned in
accompaniment.
Furthermore. members of the mans
family were compelled to play the
Dutch national hymn while the people
below shouted Down with Castro!
Long may Wilhelmina livel"
The police were entirely unable to
cope with the demonstrators and their
efforts in this direction were some-
what feeble. No bodily harm was done
to any one. but the shouting and cheer
ing continued for time and then a
procession was formed and march
made upon the consul's house.
This morning 1t was noted that there
was no shield in the building occupied
by the Venezuelan consul. 1t is not
known whether it was removed by the
Venezuelans or torn by Curacao ma
tives. There was gathering again OF
the mob this morning. and when it was
learned the Venezuelan consul had pro-
ceeded to the German consulate this
building was surrounded by an ever
increasing mob.
1t became necessary eventually to
call out additional troops, and these
at once proceeded to patrol the streets
and stop the rioting.
Consul Lopez was escorted to the
Venezuelan consulate by an armed
force, and he gathered up the official
documents of his office and was es-
corted back to his home. The troops
that accompanied him were compelled
to force their way through the crowds
that had gathered and were jeered on
every hand.
