MEXICAN SMUGGLER
is OUT OF COUNTRY
Man Who Is Accused Jointly with
Capt. w. Ziegenmyer of Entering
Hats by Stealth Said to
Be in Panama

AS the result of investigation by the
United States attorneys office, 1t was
found yesterday that j. F. Solorzano,
who has been named as a co-defendant
with Capt. w. Ziegenmyer, on the
charge of smuggling $40 Panama hats
into San Diego, has eluded the police
and has safely made his way out Of
the United States.
Federal officers of New Orleans, who
had been working on the case in con-
junction with the Los Angeles officials.
forwarded word yesterday that Solor-
zano had passed through the New Or
leans port and was believed to have
made his way 20 Panama.
The Nattem- 5 Eo make the $4,000 bail
for the re'1ase of Capt. Ziegenmyer,
captain the steamer Erna, who is
corifin>. j. IN the county Jail on charge
of smuggling, have as yet proved un-
availing.
J. A. Gibson, who represented the
captain when brought before the fed
eral authorities, has retired from the
case and Davis & Rush have been en-
gagged for the defendant. Capt Zieg-
enmyer contends that if any hats were
smuggled it was done without his
knowledge and claims it an outrage to
keep him confined in Jail on a charge
of which, he. states, he is not guilty.

MILLIONAIRE PRISONER is
PUT TO WORK IN JUTE MILL
w. 8. Bradbury Must Perform Menlal
Labor During His Term at
San Quentin

SAN RAFAEL. Sept. S.-William B.
Bradbury, the Corte MADEIRA capitalist
who began yesterday years incarcer-
alton in the penitentiary at San Quen-
fin for perjury, commenced work today
in the jute mill, after an attempt TO
escape it on the plea of illness.
He slept last night in cell room
with 200 other convicts, including a
number of murderers and other des-
perate criminals. ,..
He had not been informed of the gov
ernor's refusal to grant a pardon, and
ate a hearty breakfast this morning,
still hoping the executive would inter-
fere in his behalf.
When assigned the task of filing cans
with waste lutte at the mill, Bradbury
complained he was not able to do the
work because he could not stoop even
long enough to tie his shoes, but as TINS
is one of the lightest employments in
the factory the authorities refused to
rescind their order.

4 MOTHER supposed case of occu

A MOTHER supposed case of occult
I power, or transmission of
AA thought waves" was rehearsed
yesterday morning before Police Judge
Frederickson, when William Edwards,
a self confessed knight of the road,
was arraigned on charge of petty
larceny.
According to the testimony, Edwards
has been in the habit of making daily
visits to the Mailman bakery. Eighth
street and Ceres avenue, and stealing
a loaf of bread, on which he managed
to subsst.
G. H. Stone, driver for the Barnes
Baking company, testified that each
morning a loaf of bread had been re-
ported missing, and Williams was
finally caught in the act of stealing
his daily bread"
Edwards did not deny the charge,
but said that before he left his home
in Oklahoma he had been told by a
friend named Bob Hill that his ma
terial welfare would be looked after
during his stay in Los Angeles and
that arrangements had been made for
him to obtain a loaf of bread each day

STRIKE OF SINGLE MEN
IN WASHINGTON PROBABLE
If WeaVers Do Not Reach Amicable
Settlement with Manufacturers,
Coast viii Be Involved

ABERDEEN. Wash, Sept. 3.-The
controversy between the shingIe
weavers and manufacturers of Chehalis
county has reached an acute stage, and
unless an amicable adjustment is
reached at a meeting to take place
tomorrow a strike is probable.
Should a strike be declared it appears
probable the shingle industry of the en-
tire coast would become involved, with
the possible result tks manufacturers
would take stand for an open shop
in all plants.
The weavers demand payment of 10
cents 1000 for shingles, an increase of
11a cents over the present schedule
The manufacturers assert the present
market for shingles does not warrant
the increase.

HOBO GETS DAILY BREAD
BY TELEPATHIC MESSAGES

and that Bob" would some day settle
the bill
He was also told, so he stated to the
court he would find work for a time,
would eventually lose his job, but
that after that the loaf of bread would
be in certain place each morning.
He told the court he had received a
telepathic message from his friend
Bob" directing him to the bread, and
that for month he has been nour-
ished by the find. He stated he did
not know whether the bread had been
paid for, but that Bob doubtless
would send the money by wireless.
For nearly a month l have lived as
son of nature, retiring each night in
vacant lot on East Seventh street,
with Mother Earth for a pillow and
the stellar consultations for my COW
ering."
Judge Rose looked amazed, and de-
cided the case was one for the lunacy
commission. He requested District
Attorney Harry Alexander to have an
examination made as to Edwards
sanity, and suspended sentence on the
larceny charge.
