FORMER CAPTAIN OF
GUARD SUED BY STATE
Money With Defunct Trust
Company and Stores Claimed

The trial of a suit in which William
E. Wehser, formerly captain in the
national guard, was sued by the state
for S579.69 was begun before Judge
Graham yesterday.
Before Company E of the First in
fantry, national guard, was mustered
out. Mehser, who was captain of the
company. made a requisition to the ad-
jutant general for $500 for company
purposes. The money was received by
the treasurer of the First regiment
Major John +. Eggert, who deposited it
in the California safe deposit and trust
company. The suspension OF payment
by the bank lost the money to the state,
but the adjutant general said that Cap
tain Wehser was responsible for it.
The balance of the claim was made
up of the value. of bayonets, cartridge
belts, blankets, hats, etc, which the
adJutant general said Wehser should
have returned to the state after the
mastering out of the company.
Captain Wehser testified yesterday
that he never heard of the $500 having
been advanced by the adjutant general
until after IL months had elapsed. AS
TO the other property he testified 1t
was burned in the fire of April, 1905.
Attorney Chickerfng, representing
the Title guarantee and trust company
also sued, said during the proceedings
yesterday that it was "a case of perse-
cution, not prosecution" The trial will
be resumed Thursday.

that automobiles be able to negotiate

EMF go" cars which have been sold
to ranchers in and around Fresno have
all been put through this test accord
ing to DrVhnm. and in most instances
after the test was completed the field
was covered with a network of lines
drawn by the hood inclosing the diff

to Drumm the Studebaker EMF "30'

this test has been put that has as yet

The remarkable victory of the Chal-
mers-Detroit at the Altadena-Pasadena
hill climb when it captured the event
for roadsters costing from s2.50O to
$4,000 and the roadster free for all
stock car has created a great deal OF
discussion among local motorists. The
victory which was over the famous
mile and a half climb is one OF the
most sensational in which worlds rec
ord holding stock car has ever COM
peted. No less remarkable was the
victory at the same course of the so
horsepower Thomas flyer which cap
tured all honors in stock touring car
events.

Travels in Special Train of
Eight Cars With Chiefs

Baths at San Antonio

z. H. Hartman arrived in Benson
last night in his special train of eight
cars on his way to Mexico With him

is much improved in health, and that
he looks forward to the Mexican trip
with pleasure.
The Southern Pacific extension in
Mexico is the most important work
that is now being done by Hartman
properly speaking, the extension is
the Cananea. YaQui and Pacific, which
leaves the Sonora railway at Empalme,
and is built now within a few miles
Of Mazatlan.
From Mazatlan. the road is to follow
the coast, and viii make a connection
with the Mexican Central at Orendain
and then on to Guadalajara.
1t is the intention OF Hartman to
enter the City Of Mexico, and two sur
veys have been made. but at present
no route has been decided on. The
road will eventually be continued till
it forms a junction with the Pan
American and thus reach Guatemala.
1t is expected that the road into
Mexico City will be completed in less
than three years, which by that time

This is Harrimans first visit to Mex

millions have been spent. He expects
to spend at least one week going over

here about the latter part of the pres
ent month.
How long he will stay here is, of
