n OSTON. Aug. 14.-When Governor
x Draper was theoretically
- startled at 10 a. m. today with
the news that a hostile force had land
ed on the southern coast of Massachu-
setts and was threatening the military
safety of Boston, the most extensive
game of mimic war that has ever been
played in the eastern states was fairly
under way.
In accordance with the rules laid
down by the war department, Governor
Draper at once called on Adjutant Gen
eral Brigham to defend Boston against
the threatened attack, and 1000 troops
were ordered to the front, under the
command of Brgadier General Pew.
1t was, of course, known to all par
ties that the attack from the force con-
sisted of several companies of the
United States coast artillery from the
forts in and about New York, and a
number of regiments of militia from
Connecticut and New Jersey and tho
District Of Columbia, under the com
mand of Major Gen. Tasker Bliss,
u. s. A.
The sham battle which will be fought
in Bristol and Plymouth counties nexl
week between the blue army of de-
fense and the red army of attack
whose forces were assembled today,
win demonstrate whether Massachu-
setts, and particularly Boston, is pro-

YOUNG BANDITS
CONFESS PLANS
BANK ROBBERS TELL OF GRIM
lNAL HOPES
Youths Conceal Parentage and His
tory, but Talk Boldly of Ambition
to Begin Career of Startling
Crimes
[By Associated Press.l

SANTA CLARA, Aug. 14.-Still con-
cealing their identity, but talking free
ly of the daring robbery in which they
were the principal actors yesterday, the
two boys captured at Sunnyvale by
Sheriff Langford were brought here
this morning for arraignment on a
charge of robbery.
The young men made a starting con-
fession today. Joe Willetts, who ap-
pears to be the leader of the twain,
said he and his companion had planned
a series of bank robberies that would
have created a reign of terror in hnan-
cial circles.
SO far had their plans matured that
on Thursday, with hired automobile
awaiting their return, they entered the
First National bank, in the heart OIL
Oakland, and calmly weighed the
chances of making their escape with IL
fortune.
This Santa Clara robbery was only
an experiment" said the youthful ban
dit, after making this revelation. we
intended, if it was successful, to go
after bigger and richer institution
next time and to clean up lot or
money before we were through.
1--WE obtained a machine in Oakland
and had it remain just around the cor
ner lust as we did in yesterdays job.
Carr and | went to the First National
about noon and looked the place over.
We were well armed, and if there had
not been so many clerks and so many
people passing outside we would nave
held up the cashiers and tellers and
tried to get all the money in sight

YOUTHFUL BANK ROBBERS
HELD IN $4,000 BONDS

SAN JOSE, Aug. 14.-Joe Willetts
and Fred Carr. the Youths who yester-
day morning figured so conspicuously
as the principals in the sensational
robbery of the Valley bank at Santa
Clara, were arraigned this morning be-
fore Justice of the Peace Thompson of
that town and their bail fixed at $780,
900 each.
The boys slept well in their respec-
tive cells in the county Jail last night,
and when their breakfast was taken
in to them this morning it was evident
their appetites had not been affected
by their exciting experience of yes

At o'clock Sheriff Langford and
Deputy Sheriff Mulhall placed the boys
in the same automobile they had used
yesterday, and the same chauffeur,
Ray Brown, drove them over to Santa
Clara.
The justices office is located only
fifty feet from the bank the boys had
robbed. and it was lust twenty-four
hours after the robbery the culprits

JAPAN STRICKEN
BY EARTHQUAKE
MANY PERSONS KILLED AND
INJURED BY TEMBL0R
Central Portion of Mikado's Empire
Experiences Heavy Shock and
Several Cities Are Laid
In Ruins
fBy Associated Press.l

TOXIC, Aug. ia severe earth
quake occurred in central Japan yes
uerday Saturday afternoon at $3.50
o'clock. The shock was particularly
severe around Kyoto, Osaka, Lake
Biwa and Nagoya. All railroad COM
munication with those districts has
been interrupted.
Many houses collapsed and it is
feared that many people were killed or
injured.
Nagoya, with a population of more
than 250.000 and one of the principal
cities in Japan, located 40 miles west
of Toxic, was damaged seriously.
Details are meager because of the in
terruption of telegraph service with the
cities most affected. Twenty-one dead
and seventy people injured thus far
have been reported.
One-fourth of the Shiga prefecture
sustained considerable damage. Mount
Tbuki, at the northern end of Lake
Bwa, an extinct volcano, is reported to
have collapsed near the top.
The shock was slight in Toxic.

CASHIER OF ELMHURST
BANK IS POSITIVE BOYS
PLANNED TO ROB HIM

OAKLAND, Aug. 14.-That Fred
Carr and Joe Willetts. the Santa Clara
bank robbers, had planned the robbery
of the Bank of Elmhurst, near oak
land is the belief of Cashier A. f.
Horstman of that bank.
He positively identified Carr from his
picture as published in the papers as
the man who stepped up to his window
Tuesday morning and asked for a roll
of new Lincoln pennies.
Cashier Horstman also states that
Winetts stood directly behind Carr in
the bank Not having the pennies, the
cashier told the men he could not COM
ply with their request.
The two boys stood at the window
for at least two minutes, then ex-
changed a glance, and without saying
a word left the building. They crossed
the street and seated themselves in an
automobile which was standing di-
rectly opposite the bank, and started
towards San Leandro.

whereas. The early completion OF
the highway between the city of Los
Angeles and its harbor front, hereto
fore designed as a part of the high
way system of the county of Los An
geles, is of great importance to the
| business interests of Los Angeles.
| BE 1t resolved, That the secretary or
this commission is hereby authorized
and instructed to take such steps in
the name of this commission as may be
appropriate and possible to expedite
| the construction of that highway III
every manner possible"
| With reference to the construction of
| highways that will make auto-truck
competition with railroads possible, the
commission adopted the following:
whereas, 1t is of great importance
to the city of Los Angeles that as much
business as possible shall be attracted
to it's harbor; and,
Trunk Highways Endorsed
Whereas, In order to attract this
business, land transportation facilities
for bringing freight to and distributing
| it from said harbor are matters of
great Importance; and,
| Whereas, In order that the harbor
shall be of the greatest advantage to
Southern California, 1t is of the first
| importance that facilities for land
transportation connecting surrounding
| territory with said harbor shall be
provided,
"Be it resolved, That the secretary of
this commission is directed to COM
municate with the boards OF supervis-
ors and highway commissioners of the
counties of Southern. California, whose
business is naturally tributary to San
Pedro harbor, and to endeavor to form
ulate plan by which trunk highways
shall be constructed by said counties
extending to and connecting with trunk
highways that shall be q part of the
highway system of the county OF Los
Angeles leading to Los Angeles harbor,
to the end that where necessary in or
der to afford proper transportation ia
cilties or to correct unjust railway
rates, auto vehicles may be used by
the shippers of freight to transport
their freight between San Pedro har-
Dor and it's points of origin and desti-
nation in Southern California"

Fair Rates Demanded

Fair Rates Demanded
''Whereas The importance of the
harbor at San Pedro to the business IN
terests of the city of Los Angeles has
been very largely increased by the re-
cent annexation of that harbor: and
Whereas, In order to receive the
greatest advantages from the use of
the harbor. and to attract to it the
largest possible business, 1t is neces-
sary that fair rates sholl be established
and maintained by railroads carrying
freight between the business center or
the city of Los Angeles and its harbor;
and
whereas, The fact that at the pres
ent time freight is being transported by
the Santa Fe from the harbor of san
Diego to the city of Los Angeles,
distance of about 1875 miles, at the same
rate that is being charged by other
railroad companies for transporting
freight of similar character between the
harbor of Los Angeles and it's business
center. distance of twenty-five miles,
shows that the harbor of Los Angeles
is being unjustly Disseminated against
by the railroad companies engaged in
transporting freight between 1t and the
business center of Los Angeles.
s'Be it. resolved, That in the judg-
ment of this commission such differ
ence in freight rates constitutes
wrongful and unjust discrimination by
the railroads against the harbor of the
city of Los Angeles; and
Discrimination Condemned
"Resolved further, That such dis
elimination should be prevented, and
to that end the secretary of this COM
mission is instructed to communicate
with the Jobbers' association of the
CITY of Los Angeles to the end that
ARRANGEMENTS may be made for bring
ing this unjust discrimination against
the harbor of Los Angeles to the at
tention of the state board of railway
commissioners and that the said dis
crimination may be corrected"
With reference to obtaining access
to the west basin, the commission
adopted the following resolutions:
"Whereas, 1t will he necessary for
the city of Los Angeles at an early
date to embark upon the Improvement
of that part of it's harbor lying in the
west basin. and at the present time
access to said basin is prevented by

THIEF SNATCHES
PEARL NECKLACE
GEMS VALUED AT $4,000 ARE
STOLEN
Mrs. &. r. Earl Misses JeweIry Soon
After Arriving at Avalon from
San Pedro-No CleW
to Robbery

Mysteriously stolen a pearl necklace,
valued at $4,000, belonging to Mrs. E..
T. Earl. 2425 Wiltshire boulevard, wife
of the publisher of the Los Angeles Ex-
press, is now being sought by detec-
tives and the police department, and
offers of a large reward are being cir
culated in an effort to recover the val
liable gems.
The loss occurred several days ago,
when Mr.. and Mrs. Earl left for a visit
to Avalon and the necklace was placed
among some other valuables in bag
which Mrs. Earl fastened under her
waist with a safety pin. No wrench or
clutch was felt during the day, and
the gems were supposed to be safe un-
til her arrival at the Metropole hotel
in Avalon, when it was discovered the
bag was gone. Those acquainted with
the details of the robbery state that
the theft is the work of some expert
jewel snatcher, who was probably
aware of the fact that the gems were
often carried in this way.
Wireless Is Used
Several wireless messages have been
sent to the residence in Los Angeles IN
an effort to trace the loss, and 1t was
believed barely possible that the jewels
in some way had been returned to this
home here deny any knowledge of the
gems other than that they admit such
necklace is missing.
Mrs. ]. M. Harper, a nurse at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. e. T. Earl,
stated last night that she had received
several messages in regard to the loss,
but refused to discuss the matter fur
ther.
Developments yesterday point to the
fact that information has been re-
ceived which may lead to the capture
of the present holder of the gems.
Descriptions of the necklace have
been wired all over the country and
the police in all cities and towns have
been notified. so that in case the thief
should attempt to dispose of his booty
he would at once be apprehended.
Probably Stolen on Boat
1t is believed that the theft occurred
on the trip to Catalina, as Mrs. Earl
feels certain of having the bag con-
tanning the valuables in her possession
up to her arrival at the boat.
Edward r. w. Frost, private secre-
tary to e. L. Earl, refused to discuss
the robbery last night, saying the fam
lily was desirous of escaping publicity
and felt that any newspaper accounts
might prevent the capture of the thief.
1t was pointed out that advertisements
were already in the papers which would
give any jewel snatcher ample notice
of the loss and value of the property,
and publicity might lead to the un-
earthing of new clews.
The pearls composing the necklace
were we'll matched and of such dis
tinctive type as to make it possible to
identify them even should the thief at
tempt to dispose of his property by dis
membering the chain and selling the
gems individually.
No efforts will be spared TO locate
the missing Jewels, and it is thought
they will be recovered within a few
daYS,
