OBJECT TO SCHEME FOR
entertainment OF TAFT
Smaller Towns in Southern California
Would See More of the
President

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 12.-Much
opposition has arisen to the arrange
ment of the Los Angeles chamber of
commerce whereby Taft will be enter
tanned in that city all day October IL
and until the afternoon of the fol-
lowing day, leaving him until nightfall
of October u to visit the remainder
of Southern California, the cities of
Riverside, Redlands and San Bernar-
dino, in addition to other smaller points
which wish to view the head of the
nation.
Riverside desires to take the presi-
dent for an automobile spin to the
Sherman institute and up Rubidoux
Heights and finally to the Glenwood,
where Taft would be the guest of
honor at a banquet. This alone would
consume the remainder of the time
allotted Southern California which
Los Angeles has not arranged for.
Redlands has offered to join with San
scene of the reception to be at Red
lands. This san Bernardino will not
agree to. The towns of Pomona and
Ontario are wondering where they
come in, as do Upland, Claremont
and other points on the Santa F'e. If
the president makes the trip over the
Salt Lake the latter points will be
forced to migrate if they -desire to
catch a glimpse of the president.
Mayor S. w. McNabb and President
A L. Drew of the chamber of COM
merce We're in conference yesterday in
regard to the plans for the entertain
ment of Mr. Taft. San Bernardino
would like to do a number of things,
but until definite information is given
out as to the exact itinerary no ar
rangements can be made.

PUBLIC CARRIAGE DRIVERS
TO RETIRE FROM BUSINESS
With Advent of Automobile One of
Oldest Industries in Pasadena
Faces Destruction

PASADENA, Sept. 12.-It begins tc
look as if the march of Improvement
will drive out of existence one of the
oldest institutions in this city-the pub
lie carriage driver. With the advent oi
the automobile there has come slasA-
ing in prices, and the old-time tourists
who have frequently made trips to see
the wonderous beauties of Pasadena,
with its miles and miles of millionaires,
its sunken gardens and the most artis-
tic and beautiful homes in the world,
will soon miss the surreys and carriages
that have in the past served as means
of conveyance.
The automobile, with its increased
speed and comfort, is gradually forcing
the carriage men out of business, and
an Industry that has for years been all
important in this community is dying
slowly. The city ordinance requiring
the carriage men to seek other quar-
ters for their stands than the main
streets of the town Is also responsible
for a great decrease in their business.
Some of the drivers who see the newt
able future have signified their tnten-
ton of learning to drive the automo-
biles and taxicabs.

GOLDFIELD STRIKE WIDENS;
ANOTHER SEAM DISCOVERED
Present Indications Point to Second
Bonanza Being Developed
in District

GOLDFIELD, Sept. 12.-Following
the first report of the find recently
made on the Combination Fraction,
comes the announcement that the
strike is much larger than was at hrst
believed and that another seam OF hlgh
grade is making it's appearance near
the foot wall of the vein, which is also
growing larger.
While no material change has been
noted, and the values remain so far as
an average is concerned about the same
as were first encountered, it is not un-
likely that before development goes
much further the latest find Will pe-
come one of the bonanza properties Oh
the Goldfeld district.
II. S. Stark, consulting engineer, says
he does not desire to predict, as II Is
possible to either make good or TO pioW
up with further exploration, ana thal
the time is not ripe for speculation re-
garding what may be expected OF the

AUTO WINS WILD RACE
AGAINST ELECTRIC CAR
Police Arrest Man Wanted in Seattle
on a Charge of Grand
Larceny

PASADENA, Sept. 12.-Getting a
tip this morning that the wife of A.
D. Stonaker, formerly of this city and
wanted in Washington on a grand lar
ceny charge, was going to Los Angeles
to meet her husband, Policemen Peck
and Belts jumped into an automobile
and breaking all speed laws raced into
Los Angeles in quest of their man.
That Mrs. Stonaker intended to meet
her husband this morning was not
known to the police until after the
car had left Pasadena. The only way
to beat the car to Los Angeles was
through the means of an automobile
and a race against electricity.
1t was a wild, exciting ride for the
officers as the machine forged ahead
at full speed, swerving with lightning
like rapidity around corners and over
hills until finally the car was over
taken and followed into Los Angeles.
At Seventh and Grand Stonaker was
located and Immediately placed under
arrest. The search for him has been
prosecuted for several weeks, and each
time when his capture seemed certain
he has managed to elude the officers.
He has been going under the name of
]. J. Wilson and letters in this name
have been addressed to him by his
wife to Long Beach.
Stonaker states he will be able to
clear himself of the charges made
against him in Seattle. His story is to
the effect that he hired a couple of
guns to go out on a hunting expedi-
ton and when he got back a friend
packed the two guns up and shipped
them to Los Angeles. The guns, he
claims, have long since been returned
to the owners and he cannot under
stand why he should be held on this
charge

brought to Globe by H. S. Duncan, the
superintendent. A considerable body
of sulphide ore running about per
cent copper was encountered recently
in the long tunnel which Is being run
under Mazatal mountain to tap large
iron dyke that occurs on the surface
and is believed to carry copper values
at some depth.
The sulphides were opened up in a
crosscut from the tunnel at distance
of seventeen feet. The crosscut leaves
the tunnel about 325 feet from its
mouth. AS developed so far the sui
phide ore is good concentrating mate
rial and is getting to be better grade
of stuff as the crosscut is extended.
From all indications the ore body
found will extend from the end OF the
present crosscut to the big dyke
toward which the tunnel is being
driven. The depth at which the sui
phides were found was about 1926 feet.

CHIEF WILL TENDER
RESIGNATION TODAY
FAVOUR SEES BIG JOB AHEAD
FOR SUCCESSOR
Retiring Head of Department Says the
Absence of Saloons Complicates
Work of Police in
Pasadena
Especial to The Herald ]


PASADENA. Sept. 12.-'T shall for
mally tender my resignation to the po-
lice commissioners tomorrow after
noon," said Chief of Police H. H. Fa-
your today, "and I trust that the man
who is selected to succeed me will be
able to come into the office without
facing any dissension. This city is Pc
culiar in that it is a hard proposition
to police. 1t is not like city that has
saloons. Its people are a better class
and the work of the department does
not show as it does in city where sa-
looms create their share of trouble and
the police can go in and make show
ing In this city the conditions are en-
tirely opposite and the greatest tact
in dealing with the cases is necessary.
For instance, if this was water
front town like one of the beach cities
and a gang of sailors broke loose and
started a disturbance, all that the po-
lice would have to do would be to sail
in and make arrests and throw the
gang into the jug. Here those condl-
tions do not exist. When a man gets
on a rampage in this town and the
police are called in to make an arrest
it is generally some fellow who has
committed his first offense. Suppose
we should beat him up and throw him
in the jug, it would mean his ruina-
ton. The attendant publicity would
greatly damage him, and he has really
only created a single disturbance and
may never do it again.
'It is these conditions that make 1t
hard. AT the end of the month the
police apparently haven't made a
showing and there is criticism from
all sides. I hope they get some man to
fill my place that is ambitious and can
change conditions as they now exist.
No. can name on one for the place;
that is for the others to do"
The board of police commissioners
meet tomorrow afternoon, but it is not
expected that other than accepting the
resignation of Chief Favour they will
take action toward naming his sue
cesSor.

minutes during the feat.
When the pipe was halfway to the

out of the lower end, startling the in
trepid waterman and bringing a foolish
look to his countenance. "I didn't know
he was there, or 1 would have taken
a shotgun with me-" he said.
