August Belmont and others, are iden-

the governors of which held a meeting
here yesterday. The league was only
recently incorporated with a view to

At the meeting of the governors the

ing that the blue laws founded on the
English common laws have long ceased
to be effective, and recognizing that
the men and women of the twentieth
century have outgrown the passive
submission to dictation which seeks to
make all follow the path laid down for
them by zealots, have organized as

ONE INDICTMENT
MORE RETURNED
BY GRAND JURY
NICK OSWALD BEL. IEVED TO BE
PERSON NAMED
ISSUED AGAINST
VETTER, WHO is SICK
Officers Return from Futile Search for
Missing Former Boss-lnquisito-
rial Body Adjourns Until
Monday Next

The special grand jury appointed to
investigate charges Of protected vice
in Los Angeles returned third lndlct-
ment at 2:05 o'clock yesterday and I'M
mediately adjourned until 10 O'Clock
Monday. While the name of the per-
son indicted is kept secret all lndlca-
lions point to Nick Oswald, the missing
ruler of the redlight district, as the
man wanted.
At the time the indictment was
handed to Judge James an affidavit
signed by j. E. Fishburn, foreman OF
the Jury, was filed, complaining that
William Lawrence Vetter, Oswald's
associate, had failed to respond to
subpoena Monday afternoon, and yes
terday, and asking that he be cited for
contempt. An attachment was issued
for Vetter, who was found in his room
at the United States hotel and taken
to the county Jail and later to the
county hospital. There he will be
given medical treatment, made neceS-
sary on account of his weakened con-
dition consequent on what appears to
have been debauch.
Vetter Must Explain
Vetter will, if his condition permits,
appear before Judge James today to
explain his conduct. His failure to
appear before the grand jury to con-
tinue the examination begun Monday
is responsible for the adjournment, and
when the jury meets again he is eX-
pected TO be the first person called.
The grand jury met at 10 o'clock
Yesterday and passed the forenoon
waiting for Vetter, discussing testi
mony already heard and preparing the
indictment which, it is believed, was
based on the statements made by Os
walds lieutenant, collector of rents
in the restricted district, John Foil,
Felix Claviere and Hector Rabagliatti
Headed by G. Ray Horton and w. j.
Ford deputy district attorneys, the
bank building half an hour after the
beginning of the afternoon session, and
a few minutes later handed the indict-
ment to Judge James. Bond was fixed
at $4,000 and the jurors retired, to meet
Monday.
Warrant Issued at Once
A warrant for the indicted mans ar
rest was placed in the hands of Under
Sheriff DiShman, as was also the at
tachment for Vetter.
No further information concerning
the whereabouts of Nick Oswald was
received yesterday. Detectives S. L.
Browne and his men returned during
the afternoon after twentyfour
hours search for the missing man, IN
the course of which they ran down a
number of clews received during the
past few days.

began work March 10. The first ac-

PASADENA, April 6.-Former Vice
President Fairbanks authorizes the
announcement that he will leave Pasa-

to San Francisco and sail thence to
Honolulu, where he expects to remain
two weeks.
From there he intends to go to

In short, a tour of the world will be
made, but Africa is omitted from the

buying in others. uncovered bears figuring
largely in the latter element. Reading was
