WESTERN PACIFIC
JOINS DEPOSITORS
Will Favor Safe Deposit Re0r-
ganization Plan Under Ger
tain Conditions
Action Regarded as Big Help to
the Promoters of the
Project

The Western Pacific railway COM
pany. the largest depositor in the Cali
fornia safe deposit and trust company,
agreed yesterday under certain con-
ditions to join the reorganization move
ment These conditions, according to
Oscar Cooper. counsel and secretary
of the reorganization committee, have
been readily agreed to. The Western
Pacific is a creditor of the bank in the
sum of $250.0O0. In a. statement issued
last night Warren Olney Jr., general
counsel for the Western Pacific, said
in part:
I'VE believe the reorganization COM
mittee is acting in entire good faith
and that the matter is being we'll and
capably handled by it. There is no
doubt in our minds that If the reor-
ganization is consummated it will be
of great benefit to all of the general
depositors. 1t will mean an addition of
81, 600, 900 to the assets TO which they
must look for payment.
After considering the matter care
fully we have determined TO aid the
reorganization committee in every way
possible"
In commenting upon the action of
the Western Pacific oscar Cooper said:
Now that the Western Pacific has
come in practically all the others will
follow For example, the Equitable
protective company of Cushing and
Cushing, representing S750,0O0 of de-
posits, principally of other banks. had
promised to come in if Mr.. Chickering
found matters in shape for immediate
consummation in New York and if the
Western Pacific came in. Both of
these conditions have now been full
filed"

GAYNOR ACCUSED
OF TWISTING LAW
Sensational Attack on Judge
Nominee Made by Assist
ant District Attorney

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The political
enga cement today in the political war
fare preceding the municipal election
was sensational attack upon William
]. Gaynor democratic nominee for
mayor. by Robert H. Elder, assistant
district attorney of Kings county
(Brooklyn) who has represented the
state in a fight to enforce the anti
betting laws on the racetracks.
The attack. in the form of a state
nent. was designed to support and sup
ply details 10 the charges made Monday
night by William NJ. Wins. a republican,
but a Hearst supporter, that Gaynor as
a Justice of the supreme court had
sought to defeat the purpose of the
anti gambling statute.
CHARGES CONSPIRACY
Elder declared he had learned of the
alleged conference of Gaynor, Patrick
II. McCarren and Eugene Wood of
Brooklyn, at which the constitution
slity of the racetrack law was dis
cussed, and, as is charged, a test case
contemplated upon which Justice
Gaynor was to render a decision.
The Elder statement says:
The new law against public gam
bling on the racetrack went into effect
June II, 1908. At that time racing was
going on at Sheepshead Bay. A few
d
inence, who has been aiding me in my
efforts to enforce the law, told me he had
but a few minutes before engaged in
conversation with Eugene Wood, and
that Wood had declared to him that he
wood and Senator Patrick H. McCar-
rem had been present at conference
with Judge Gaynor, in which it was
decided that the constitutionality and
the validity of the new gambling law
could be nullifed and that habeas
corpus case was being arranged to be
brought before Judge Gaynor to get a
decfsion that would allow the gamblers
10 do business on the racetracks.
aThe learned court decided In the
case of a friend that it was not an Of
fense TO make bet on racecourse,
and that il was no offense to register
and record the same"
GIVES LIE TO WINS
Justice Gaynor was busy tonight
reading the Elder statement. but he
aid, not intimate whether he would
make a reply. The WINS charges he
branded as lies.
state Senator Patrick H McCarren.
the democratic leader Of Brooklyn, was
suddenly eliminated from further par

anpeudicitis, which required immediate
operation.
At midnight, when the time for filing
nomination petitions expired, IL was
found that both the Hearst civic al
lance petition and that of Hearst's
democratic rivals in Brooklyn had been
dulv recorded IN complete form. It is
now UP to the board of elections to de-

Social Leadership
Thompson had not proceeded far
when he threw down his notes and
sailed into everything that was evil
in politics, concluding with a tribute
to Francis ]. Heney and the graft
prosecutors in San Francisco.
Thompson urged greater activity of
Christian people in politics and eulo-
gized Lincoln, Roosevelt and Heney
as evangels Of the common peoples
rights, urging his hearers TO hold up
the hands of Heney in his efforts to
compel honorable and just dealing be-
tween the corporations and the people.
He condemned the San Francisco
Chronicle for its attitude toward the
graft prosecution and said that it was
not worthy of the patronage of Chris
tian homes. His remarks were loudly
applauded

FISH THAT WALK.
Climbin, Perch Travel Over Land
From Water to Water.

From Water to Water.
1t may seem absurd to speak Of fishes
as walking. The Tying fish is well
known. but its flight looks much like
swimming in the air. We naturally
think of fishes as living always in
water. as being incapable. in fact. OF
living anyw here else. But nature main
tains no hard aud fast lines OF distinc-
ton between animal life which belongs
to the land and that which belongs to
the water. II we can believe the &C
counts of naturalists. there are fishes
that traverse dry land.
1t is reported that Dr. Francis Day
of India has collected data of several
instances Of the migration OF fishes by
land from one piece OF water to an
other.
A party Of English officers were upon
one occasion encamped in certain
part OF India when their attention
was attracted by Il rustling sound in
the grass and leaves. Investigation
showed it to be caused by myriads OF
little fishes that were making for one
direction and were passing slowly on.
There were hundreds Of them moving
by using their side and small Fms as
feet. now upright. now falling down.
sQuirming. bending. rolling over. re-
gaining their hnny feet and again
pressing on.
These fishes were the famous climb
ing perch. and they were passing over
the country to avoid a drought. When
the stream in which they have been
spending the season dries up they
scale the banks and. directed by some
marvellous instinct. crawl to another
