SULTAN GIVES UP HIS
FORTUNE TO GOVERNMENT II
Former Ruler of Turkey Yields Money
He Held in Foreign Banks
Still Fears Death

PARIS June 27.-The Temps pub
usbed an interview with Fethi Bey, who
is AT present the chief guardian OF the
ex-sultan of Turkey. Fethi Bey de-
scribes how he induced Abdul Hamid TO
give up his vast fortune deposited IN
Various foreign banks, to the turkish
government. .,,,t
He pointed out to Abdul Hamid that
so long as he retained this monty under
his personal control many people would
think he would use it for the purpose
of bringing about reactionary reVo-
luton. l..
Having taken twenty-four hours to
consider the matter, Abdul Hand sent
for Fethi Bey and handed him signed
orders on various foreign banks lot
the whole of his fortune to be dellV-
cred up He only asked that Fethl Bey
should give him a receipt for the doc-
uments.
The former sultan, says the Ienps'
thirsts for news of the outside world.
He asks constantly for news OF the
army, the parliament, the new sultan
and his former associates. The fear of
death still haunts him, and he trembles
at the least incident.
At times he has fits of depression ana
anger. He walks about his apartments
talking loudly to himself He is under
the impression that he is being slowly
done to death, and complains that MS
allowance is not enough.
He smokes cigarettes all day, and
takes great care Of his clothes and his
personal appearance. Every day he
dyes his hair and puts fresh touches of
rouge and powder on his haggard, fur
rowed face.

Both establishments are run by
negroes for people of their race, and
it is alleged they have been selling

TO LIST STOCK LOSSES
IN NATIONAL FORESTS
cate Conditions Causing Death
of Grazing Animals

WASHINGTON, June 27.-In the fu-
ture the forest service will endeavor
to obtain complete reports as to the
causes of all losses of live stock in
the national forests. Forest guards
and rangers have been instructed to
keep a strict account of all live stock
found dead in their districts, reporting
to the forester at the end of each month
the number found and listing the
der one of four heads-accident, dis
case, poison and wild animals.
1t is believed that such a record will
be of great value to stockmen in assist
ing them to figure up the percentage
of their losses and materially aiding
them in preventing some of the losses
through corrective measures. For in
stance, if an unusually large number of
stock are found dead in some particu-
lar locality, due to poison from danger
GUS plants, it will be possible to meet
this condition by fencing up the area,
or perhaps, digging up the poisonous
plants.
If several animals are found killed
by wild animals in some lone canyon,
the hunter employed for that purpose,
or the ranger himself, can investigate
the matter and either trap, poison or
shoot the mountain lion or other
predatory animal responsible for the
damage.
The rangers and guards are con-
stantly riding over their districts in
the forests and have better oppor-
tunities for finding dead live stock than
the stockmen themselves, and as such
forest ranger is supplied with the
brands of all stock in his district he
can generally identify the stock by
brands and marks and thus advise the

OVERDOSE OF MORPHINE
NEARLY KILLS EX-S0LDIER
Found Unconscious in Rear of Res
taurant, Mans Life is Saved
by Police Surgeon

Leroy NJ Head SO years old, a former
soldier, living at 1905 South Main street,
was found unconscious in the rear of
North Main street restaurant yester-
day and taken to the receiving hos
pital, where the police surgeons found
that Head had taken enough morphine
to kill a dozen men. Antidotes were
administered and Head was soon
brought out of danger. He told the
surgeons that he was addicted to the
morphine habit and took the drug reg
ularly each day. He further stated that
he had been a hospital patient at the
Sawtelle Soldiers home, where they
allowed him to have the drug. He eX-
planned his condition by stating that
he had come to Los Angeles after
drawing his pension, had eaten in a
restaurant yesterday morning, and
later craving the drug, took a much
larger portion than he had been accus-
toned to.

RAILROADS WANT
HARBOR CONTROL
CAPTAIN FRIES TELLS OF
COMPANIES GREED
CHARGES CORPORATIONS WOULD
STULTIFY BUSINESS
Claims Lines Wish Continental Haul
Only and Care Nothing for Inter-
ests of San Pedro and
Vicinity

SAN PEDRO, June ~27.-The key
note of the struggle between railroad
corporations and the people in con-
nection with San Pedro harbor, which
makes the consolidation of San Pedro
with Los Angeles an issue which Will
have far-reaching significance was
sounded last night when Capt. Amos
A. Fries, who has guarded the inter-
ests of the people adjacent to TINS
harbor, said to the City club of Los
Angeles at the banquet at the Hotel
Virginia, Long Beach:
"The control of San Pedro by the
railroads is q nation wide fight. They
are after control and a control to
last for a long period of years. The
transcontinental freight haul is the
issue, not the use of all the frontage
they now have or are attempting to
secure in San Pedro harbor. They
want the control of the whole harbor.
A free harbor means place where
every man can do business as we'll DIS
every other man."
Citizens of San Pedro, who advo-
cate granting long-term franchises to
the allied corporate interests, and the
members of the City club, many OF
whom saw the possibilities here for
the first time yesterday, begin to realize
the giving of large portions of the
water frontage to the corporations
will not make the harbor free one
or make a great volume of business
come through this port, but will add
lust that much to the control of the
whole harbor, which IS sought by the
railroad monopoly which today has
boosted the transcontinental freight
haul to exorbitant figures and main
tanned, besides, the harbors on this
coast and the ships plying between the
Atlantic and Pacific.
Captain Fries further remarked: 1T
is not enough to have small piece of
public wharfage in one portion of the
harbor, but many large pieces must
be maintained by the public if the
control is to be kept from the cor
porations."
That Captain Fries has been a
friend of the people of Southern Cali
fornia and especially Of the residents
of Wilmington, Long Beach and San
Pedro, is recognized by all. His many
friends in San Pedro join in the pro-
test which should be heard at Wash
ington against his removal from his
field Of usefulness, and If the voice
of the people" means anything at
Washington, the order for his removal
will be rescinded and his good work
allowed to go on unmolested.
The strong sentiment here for con-
solidation continues, the opponents
being content to make the fight against
the issue from behind closed doors and
under cover. That there is no logical
reason for any opposition is empha-
sized by the fact no opponents dare
come forward to attempt to influence
the free-minded citizen to vote against
the measure which is recognized by
the people of the whole of Southern
California as being the greatest and
best thing which can happen to San
Pedro as we'll as the large metropolis
