FOUNDER OF SAN
DIEGO IS DEAD
FEATHER" HORTON DIES OF
OLD AGE INFIRMITIES
AGED MAN AT DEATH WAS SEC
OND OLDEST ELK
Pioneer Settled in Old Town in 1867,
Buying Site of Present City
for TWenty-six Cents
an Acre

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 7.-Alonzo Erastus
Horton, 92 years old, founder of San
Diego and its oldest resident, died this
morning at 10 o'clock as a result of in
firmities incident to old age. He is sur
Vived by widow, a sister in Iowa two
years older than himself, and several
nephews and nieces here.
Father Horton, as he was univer-
sally known here, was born in Union,
Conn.,, October a. 1915. He first came
to California in 1851, settling at Old
Town in April, 1867.
Shortly after he had surveyed and
purchased at auction for 26 cents an
acre $50 acres of land around the bay,
upon which San Diego now stands. He
then began his successfunl attempts
to dispose of his holdings by selling
town lots. The first year his receipts
were $4,000; two years later they had
increased to $4,000.
Since then he has sold or given away
the greater portion of the town site.
In all he gave away fourteen solid
blocks and innumerable lots.
Father Horton was beloved of all
pioneer San Diegans. Every flag in
this city is today at half-mast. Be
sides being the Oldest local inhabitant
he was the second oldest Elk in Amer
lea.
The funeral arrangements have not
yet been made.

SEN. KNOX WILL NOT
RESIGN UNTIL MARCH
Pennsylvania Scion Will Wait Until
Confirmed as Secretary of
State Before He Quits
Senate

AUGUSTA, Ga, Jan. 7.-President-
elect Taft today conferred with p. c..
Knox, who will be his secretary of
state, on the subject of cabinet ap-
pointments.
Senator Knox is chairman of the in
augural committee of the senate and
house, and said tonight he had told Mr..
Taft that he intended to see him prop
erly inaugurated and his own appoint
nent as secretary of state made and
confirmed before he ceased to be SEN
ator from Pennsylvania
This indicates that Mr.. Knox will not
retire from the senate until after
March 4. Senator Jonathan Bourne,
jr., of Oregon came with Mr.. Knox
and expects to remain some days.
That the railroad employees favored
the selection of Myron t. Herrick of
Ohio for a cabinet place was indicated
TO Mr.. Taft by Warren S. Stone, grand
chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers.
Acting upon advice, Mr.. Taft today
wrote a letter tc Asa G. Chandler,
chairman of the Atlanta chamber Of
commerce, Withdrawing MS engage
ment to address the negroes of that city
on his forthcoming visit. A lively row
was in progress among the Atlanta ne
groeS over where Mr.. Taft should
make his address.

NORTHWEST HELD in
STORM KINGS GRASP
ENTIRE STATE OFWASHINGTON
MANTLED IN SNOW
Weather is Extremely Cole. and Much
Suffering Is Caused Among
Poor-One Life Re.
ported Lost

PORTLAND, Ore, January To
night it is showing throughout the en-
tire state Of Washington, save the ex-
IRENE northwestern part.
The Columbia river is damned with
ice at Warrior Rock, about fifteen
miles below the mouth of the William
cite, and is frozen solid from bank to
bank. Navigation between Portland
and Astoria is suspended.
Bellingham is probably the worst
sufferer from the effects of the storm.
The zero weather, the coolest in four
teen years, has caused suffering among
the poor, and because of the impossi-
bility of shutting off water from house
holders who waste it by letting it run
to keep the pipes from freezing, the
mains have no pressure and the city is
without protection from fire. Zero
weather prevails in Eastern Washing
ton also, but little inconvenience is be-
ing experienced.
So far but one life has been report
ed to have been lost. This is of an aged
man living a few miles north of Bell
ingham.

DEFENDS HOUSE
RULES FIRMLY
SAYS PRESENT SYSTEM EXPE-
DITES BUSINESS
cIares Old Regime Gave Speaker
Power to Prevent
Legislation

WASHINGTON, Jan. T. Under
license of debate on the District of
Columbia appropriation bill, Mr.. Ohm
stead of Pennsylvania today entered a
vigorous defense of the house of rep
resentatives. He maintained the old
rules, placed in the hands of the
hands of the speaker, are a power to
the speaker more power to expedite
legislation.
Mr.. Olmstead compared the rules Of
the house of representatives with those
of the British house of commons, and
declared the indignation of members
of the American house over the author
ity of the speaker never had reached
the stage where any of them has risen
in his place and characterized its
speaker as a damned little, insignifi-
cant pup" as a British member was
alleged to have done.
His remarks stirred up the subject in
all its phases and gave the so-called
insurgents, under the leadership of Mr..
Gardner of Massachusetts,, an oppor-
tunity to air their grievances.
Mr.. Taft's reported intention to break
the solid south was incidentally brought
into discussion in the course of a
speech on the IdTlIL Dy MT. Snepparu
of Texas, who remarked that the presi-
dent-elect had made himself ridiculous.
Mr.. Russell of Missouri made a plea
for river and harbor improvements
In nearly every essential particular,
in the discussion of the rules. Mr..
Gardner Of Massachusetts, one Of the
leaders of the insurgents differed
from Mr.. Olmstead, who, he said, was
utterly and entirely mistaken in say
ing that the Reed rules were now the
rules of the house. He insisted the
speaker was invested with too much
power.

TONGS SIGN TRUCE:
THEN KILL CHINESE
SUEY DON MAN SHOOTS MEM
Der OF ON YICK
Takes Place Just After Dark, Slayer
Making Escape After Firing
Two Shots from Re-
VolVer

-AKLAND, Jan. Within an hour of
the time set for the signing of a tenn
porary truce by the warning Chinese
tongs in Oakland Hon Song Chow, a
Chinese farmer living in the vicinity
of Stockton and a, member of the On
Yick tong, which is engaged in a blood
feud with the Suey DOns, was shot and
killed here tonight. his assailant MAX
ing his escape.
Chow was walking along Ninth street,
between Franklin and Webster, short
ly after dark, when another Chinese
stepped close to him and fired two
shots from a revolver, one bullet in
f1icting a fatal wound in the chest.
The man who fired the shot and who
is said to be a Suey Don man, ran
and got away in the darkness. A Wig
orous search was carried on by the
police, but it was said to be unsuccess-
full up to O'Clock this morning.
The feud between the On Yicks and
Suey Dons has been on for some weeks
and extends to every city along the
coast where the tongs are represented.
Already several killings have taken
place, both in Oakland and in San
Francisco, and radical measures have
been adopted to prevent its breaking
out into open war.
The Chinese government has warned
it's subjects in this country that unless
the feud be stopped the relatives in
China of those found to be carrying on
the war here will be made to suffer.

ADMITS OIL OCTOPUS
ACTS UNDERHANDEDLY
Declares Supposedly Independent Con-
Germs Are Started by Standard to
Gain Control of Certain
Territories

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-Stating that
the Standard Oil company had an en-
ploye whose duty it is to start sup
posedly Independent oil companies in
small towns in seeming opposition to
itself, l.. H. Fasenfeld, general manager
of the Red 30" Oil company, con-
tinued his testimony today in the suit
brought against the Standard Oil COM
pany.
He said the Eagle Oil company is
such a concern and its cuts as rule
were met by his company in order to
hold its trade.
Asked by the Standards counsel
whether oil refiners did not have to Off
set losses in some places by increasing
profits in others, Mr.. Fasenfeld re-
piled in the affirmative. He added
that in many instances his company
has abandoned certain fields rather
than compete with the prices made by
the Standard offshoots masquerading
as Independent companies.
Warren Dixon of Baltimore, who
said he had worked for several oil
companies, was the last witness. He
told of being sent with a wagon to
solicit the trade of independent ped
dlers by cutting prices. AfterWard,
while in the employ of the Eagle Oil
company, he was sent to gather in the
customers Of independent companies by
giving rebates. Dixon said that the
Standard Oil company maintained it's
regular prices during the Baltimore oil
war, the cuts being made by the Eagle
company, which he understood the
Standard controlled
