.HABEAS CORPUS OF
RANCHER POSTPONED
Case of Man Arrested for Heavy
leaning on Wiltshire BouIe-
ward Will Be Decided
Later

The habeas corpus proceedings
brought by L. r. Race, rancher, in con-
nection with the case in which he is
charged with violating a city ordinance
in using Wiltshire boulevard for heavy
teaming. was postponed when the at
torneys in the case appeared in depart
ment one of the superior court at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon, until
March 9.
= A great deal of interest centers
around the outcome of the case. Re-
Gently the ordinance was passed which
created Wiltshire boulevard, and which
forbade any heavy teaming thereon.
At once a storm of protest arose,
ranchers from the surrounding country
contending that it made it necessary
for them to go several miles out of
their way in order to reach the center
of the city.
Race was one of the men who openly
resisted the ordinance. He held it was
unconstitutional, and said if he was
arrested he would fight the case. A
few days later a warrant was served
on him and he Immediately engaged at
torneys. Ranchers have come to his
aid and are assisting him in his fight,
while the residents of Wiltshire are
solidly lined up against them.

PICTURE SHOWS TO
OPPOSE ORDINANCE
Object to Mayors Amendment Pro=
hibiting Views Showing Commits
sion of Crimes That Inflame
Juvenile Minds

The amendment proposed by Mayor
Harper to the moving picture Ordi-
nance will be taken up by the council
at it's meeting Tuesday and probably
passed. The measure would have been
approved by the council last Tuesday,
but a number of those interested in the
moving picture business asked that 1t
be laid over a week in order to give
them time to appear before the coun-
Gil prepared to discuss it.
That they will endeavor to obstruct
the passage of the ordinance when it
comes before the council is probable
as several of them are violating the
terms of the ordinance. But the coun-
Gil believes it a good measure and
will have to be convinced it is not
right before they will vote it down.
The ordinance will prohibit moving
picture shows from displaying pic
lures showing the commission Of
crimes and will compel the picture
men to secure permits from the police
commission.
The ordinance was formulated at the
suggestion of the mayor, who sent
message to the council several days
,declaring some of the moving pic
ture theaters were instilling bad ideas
into young heads and that much juve-
nile crime could be traced to some of
the nickelodeons.

URGES APPROPRIATION OF
BIG SUM TO FINISH CRYPT
House Committee Reports FaVorably
on Project to Provide Tomb for
John Paul Jones

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The house
committee on naval affairs has reported
favorably the bill passed by the sem
ate appropriating $135,OOO for finishing
the crypt at the chapel at Annapolis
naval academy as the permanent rest
ing place of the body of John Paul
Jones.
The crypt has been left in the rough,
with exposed concrete and brick, and
the appropriation sought would pro-
vide for a suitable style of finish and
decoration.
General Horace Porter, former am
bassador to France, who was largely
instrumental in arranging for the re-
moval of the body of the hero of the
Bon Homme Richard from France, eX-
pended 900 out of his own private
purse in arranging for the removal.
He has suggested that this amount be
appropriated for the completion of the
crypt instead of for the purpose of re-
imbursing him.

Judge Lawlor's manner finally con-
vinced the attorneys that punishment
awaited any further breach of the
courts orders and they resumed their
seats.
The juror in the meantime was un-
willing to submit to the ordeal OF fur

After Judge Lawlor had ordered an
adjournment until next Tuesday, Mr..

The subject was not made public
but it was learned that the prosecutor
objected to the attention given him by

A single seat in the jury box remains

would commit more murders, she con-

tigated that the killing was in self
