FAIL TO LEARN WHEN
A CHECK IS A CHECK
JUDGE REFUSES TO DECIDE
QUESTION
Attorneys Institute Habeas Corpus
Proceedings In Effort to Settle
Fine Point in Application
of Law

Habeas corpus proceedings failed last
evening in a case in which a question
is raised regarding the application in
certain cases of the law making the
drawing of a check without funds or
credit in the bank to meet it felony.
The point was not settled by the ruling

prayed for, as the petitioner was re-
manded to the custody Of the sheriff on
another commitment under which the
defendant, L. c. Whaley, is held.
Both the commitments are the result

ing of a check in favor of S. d. Savage,

is held, Whaley did not have funds or
credit at the bank on which it was
drawn.
The check, as held by the defendant
and by counsel, was drawn April ID.
but dated April 20. Habeas corpus pro-
ceedings were brought on the claim,
supported by authorities, that a post
dated check is not legally a check at
ALL but legally is a bill Of exchange or
note of hand. The court held that while
the petitioner is legally in custody of
the sheriff on another charge the writ
of habeas corpus cannot issue. Counsel
was advised that his client should Sc
cure bond for release on the charge of
obtaining money under false pretenses,
which is fixed at $1,000, and then habeas
corpus proceedings may be brought to
determine whether Whaley is legally
in custody on the other charge, in
which the bond is fixed at $4,000.

BOY IS DROWNED IN
RAPIDS OF NIAGARA
FRAIL YOUTH SWIMS TOO FAR
INTO STREAM
Fights Desperately, but His Strength
Finally Gives Out and He Is
Carried to Death In
Whirlpool

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, Aug. 16.-
Eighteen-year-old August Sporer of
Niagara Falls was drowned today in
the whirlpool rapids.
With three companions Sporer went
swimming in the river. He struck out
at once for the middle Of the stream.
His companions called to him to turn
back, for the current is swift at that
point, but he kept on down stream and
was caught in the great sweep, the
first break from the smoother waters
to the rapids. Although but frail
boy, he went into the rapids swimming
strongly and held his own until he
struck a giant wave. Again and again
he disappeared, only to reappear each
time, fighting desperately against the
current. Then when within 100 yards
of the Whirlpool his strength gave out
and he sank and was lost to view.
Even then he had swan perhaps 100
wards further than did the great Eng
lish swimmer. Captain Webb.

PACIFIC FORGOTTEN IN THE

EASTERN AND SOUTHERN STATES
ARE REPRESENTED
Members of Consolidation Commission,
However, Will Keep in Touch

Members of the Los Angeles consoli-

there is not an object lesson for the
Pacific coast in the personnel Of the
national waterways commission, who
left New York last week on the Kron-
prinzessin Cecile for an extended in
vestigation of the great harbors of the
world Although the greatest develop
ment in the harbors of the country in
the next decade will be seen on the
Pacific coast through the stimulus of
the Panama canal opening, no member
or attache comes from further west
than Minnesota.
The commission is headed by Senator
Theodore E. Burton of Ohio, and the
other members on the journey are Sen
ators Gallinger Of New Hampshire and
Simmons of North Carolina; Repre-
sentatives Alexander of New York,
Cassidy of Ohio, Stevens Of Minnesota,
Wanger of Pennsylvania and Spark
man of Florida. Accompanying the
commission as experts are Herbert
Knox Smith, commissioner of the bu-
reau of corporations; Col. w. H. Bixby
of the corps of engineers, stationed in
charge of the district at Chicago, and
Prof. Emory r. Johnson of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania,
All the leading continental harbors
will be inspected. The commission has
an allowance of S50,000 for the trip.
It is believed by local leaders in the
harbor movement that the Importance
of seaport work to be undertaken at
Los Angeles, San Francisco and the
Puget sound ports in the next ten years
will reverse the present situation and
give the Pacific coast better recogni-
tion as to the Importance Of its harbors.
Secretary Fleming of the Los Angeles
harbor commission already Is consider
ing steps to get the harbors of San
Pedro and Wilmington-as they arc
likely to be known in future instead of
"outer" and inner" harbors, to per-
petuate the city names-on the pilot
charts Of the north Pacific waters.
The photographic office will be kept
supplied with information about local
harbor progress by the harbor commits
sion with a view to keeping navgators
alive to the coming Importance and
facilities of the harbor through the de-
velopment proposed by Los Angeles.
At present none of the navigators'
charts has any indication that there is
a harbor at San Pedro bay.

FORMER REAL ESTATE
BROKER IN MEXICO
l.. E. JONES DISCOVERED BY
DETECTIVE DUNI
Paso RobIes Banker for Whom He
Went in Search Thought to
Be Near the East
Coast

"I didn't find f. Jones, the Paso
Robes banker, in Mexico, but l learned
that another Jones, wanted by the au-
thorities of Los Angeles, Is in that
country" said Louis Duni of the dis
trict attorneys criminal bureau yester-
day.
The man whose whereabouts Detect
i've Duni discovered is L. z. Jones OF
the Jones & Rider company, who fled
from Los Angeles several months age
after numerous charges of embezzle-
ment and obtaining money under false
pretenses were filed against him.
The former real estate broker is en-
gagged in similar work, but on smaller
scale, in the southern republic. Mr..
Duni stated he learned of his presence
through a land agent who told him
Jones had introduced a prospective
customer several days before the de-
tective's arrival.
That E. Jones, the banker, who is
said to be implicated with A, E. Warm
ington In the latter's swindling opera
tions, is somewhere in Mexico is the
belief of Mr.. Duni, who said he had
traced the fugitive to several places
and now thinks he has fed to the east
ern part of the country. Further
efforts to locate him will be made.
