rRE THREATENS CALIFORNIA
 TOWNS.
Fighters Are Exhausted Tn Efforts To Beat Back Danger-Many Ranches Burned Out in
 Valleys.

Oxnard. Cali. Sept. 15-Fires in the hills between Somis and Moor Park burned steadily all night and did great damage. The East winds whip ped the fires back again today and the fighters were exhausted from their efforts to save their crops. Pasture land had been swept clear and the flames were threatening Moor Park today.
 On the north side of the range the hills have been swept from Wtlies on the East to Santa Paula and nearly tc Saticoy. Many buildings have been destroyed and several oil wells are reported burned at Bardsdale Unless the fire is stopped in the Little Sonic Hills, dozens of ranches will be burned out.
 Forest fires today were spreading through the hills in the vicinity of Ukiah. At Latonviile the entire popu- lation was engaged in an attempt to check the flames.
 Fires along the Point Arena and Fort Bragg roads had cut Ukiah off from communication with the coast. Bridges and large areas of timber have been burned and several ranches swept clean. The Fort Bragg and South Eastern Railroad to Irmulco was tenn porarily out of commission today.

Discussion at Convention Session Led By Noted Financiers of Land. The Officers Who Are
 Chosen

Chicago, Sept. 1b-TW0 great diVis- ions of the banking activity, the Trust Company and the Clearing House, oc- cupied the attention of the delegates to the convention of thea American Bank CTS, Association here today. "--f
 Separate meetings of the trust conn pany section and the clearing house section of the association were held, and the problems peculiar to each were discussed.
 the principal address was delivered by Daniel S. Remsen, of the New York bar. author of a treatise on the law of decadent estates. who spoke on iqufd- Iation postmortem administration of wealth. s.,x
 srbe ,safety of the estate. hc declared, wasa, the afirst consideration, and for thnt reason argued that the integrity and business ability Of an executOr, whether@personaF or a trust company. was of the greatest importance.
 Strong endorsement of gold as the only safe reserve fund for a bank. was the burden of the annual address of E. c. McDougal. president of the Clearing House section. Much. of the program of the- day was technical. ~@
 The new president of the section, Sol Wexler. of the whitney -Centr1i National Bank. of New Orleans, urg-d that the members consider ir the com ing year the idea of adopting a uni form rate of charges for all items of business transacted by one bank for another, and also suggested that action be planned looking to the establish ment of uniformity in settling daily clearances.
 Tn the Trust Company section. the afternoon was spent in discussing problems relative, to, trust companies. among which were the Limitations of the Functions Of Trust Company: "The Duties and Responsibilities of Trustees Under Corporate 'Mortgages." and Mortgages as Investments for Savings Funds of a Trust Company
 Members from the different parts of the country took different views on most of the problems, explaining that the laws of the several States on the questions differed so greatly that uni formity in practice would not be prac- ticable.
 At the close of the session of the trust company section Fl. F. Mcintosh. president of the Guardian Savings and Deposit Company. of Cleveland, O., was elected president of the section. and Oliver c. Fuller, president of the Wis consin Trust Company of Milwaukee, Wis. was elected first vice president.
 Edwin Chamberlain, vice president of the San Antonio Loan and Trust Com pany, San Antonio. Tex. was elected a mernber of the. Executive Committee of the trust company section.
 During the day 1t was whispered among the delegates that the central bank idea suggested in the annual ad- dress of the president. was disapproved by many of the bankers in the conven- tion. and that should an attempt be made to adopt resolutions ravoring snch a currency plan, opposition would

 The charges were made in affidavlts from Jurors Norton and Garren which were read in open court. The affidavit of Norton alleged that after the cAse had gone to the jury Ramsey while acting in his official capacity said In effecti
 "Rawls Is as guilty aS sreess and Dickerson and they are both guilty as hell"
 Garren's affidavit stated that Ram sey had told him that if the jury didn t agrGe. Judge Newman would keep 1t together for week or more. District Attorney Holton said that the charges surprised him ana he hoped the court would investigate them. Judge Newman stated that there was no intimation that the ver- dict of the jury had been affected by the alleged conversation. and there fore the matter could not weigh with the question of a new trial The charges, however. were serious. said, the judge, and he issued an order summonIng every member of the Breese- Dickerson jury to Asheviue at once, where they wifi be questioned in open court. Ramsey denies the charges in toto.
 The formal motions by the defense for new trial and an arrest of judg- ment were denied by Judge Newman, who stated that he could see no pos sible ground for further argument in the matter. The defense then offered R petition for a writ of error. and tho case goes to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals.

 T want Governor Hughes to come out and back me up on this platform, |" said the President. When we are to- gether there is plenty of strength and we work better than on separate plat forms.
 'Tn Massachusetts, from where I have just come, I had a Senator and a Con- gressman or two to help me out on the platform. but I do not need any one here for I have Governor Hughes and he always helped me out on the plat form and that's where I need assist ance."
 President Taft then presented the Governor.
 'I have made e good many good speeches in the past few years" said the Governor "but those I enjoyed ma king most were the ones for which I had the best object and the best sub feet for a speech.
