RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS
WILL HEAR RATE CASE
San Joaquin Petition to Be Taken
Up August 80

The San Joaquin railroad rate case
will come up before the state railroad
commission in this city next week,
when it is expected that this case, in
which three California cities have par
ticipated. will be speedily concluded.
The state railroad commission will
meet in the court room of the Cali
fornia supreme court, in the Bullard
building, Tuesday, August 80 Testi-
mony in rebuttal by Los Angeles job
bers and the concluding arguments
will be heard. 1t is expected that the
case will be concluded within the week,
but it may extend into the next.
With the object of getting a read
justment of the railroad rates to the
San Joaquin valley, making them more
equitable from the viewpoint of Cali
fornia shippers, the case was brought
up by the Los Angeles Jobbers' as
sociation. San Francisco and Stockton
intervened, making it necessary for
the commission to hear their side of
the controversy before making a re-
arrangement of the rates. The last
session was held in San Francisco on

SH0PLIFTER CAUGHT WITH
OUTFIT TO AID IN THEFT
Woman Arrested in Store Calmly
Pleads Guilty in Court

With a linen bag attached around her
waist under her outside dress for the
supposed purpose OF dropping her loot
in after she had lifted" 1t from coun-
ters in the different stores, Antonia
Gonsalez was arrested in the Broad
way department store by Floor Man
ager A. w. Louis and House Detective
George Francis yesterday morning,
charged with shoplifting
When searched at central police
headquarters the woman had ten pairs
OF hose in the bag, valued at $3.50, and
a small number of other articles which
she is supposed to have purloined from
different department stores in the city.
The bag was made Of coarse linen
with a string through one end which
she tied around her waist. It was
about two feet deep and had an OPEN
ing in the front where she could easily
slip packages in without being de-
tected.
The woman was taken before Police
Judge Rose in the afternoon and with
out any hesitation pleaded guilty and
was given a 30-day sentence in the
city jail.
The woman was detected by Floor
Manager Louis, who in passing the
woman noticed her stoop to the floor
and slip something under her dress.
He watched her closely for few min
utes and then saw her repeat the per-
formance. 1t was then that he called
Detective Francis, who placed the
woman under arrest.

INCREASED ASSESSMENTS
DO NOT FOLLOW CITATIONS
Jeff McEIvaine Explains State
Boards Action

Though the state board of equali-
zation has issued citations to nine
counties, 1t does not necessarily mean
that there will be an increase in the
assessed valuations, according to
statements made yesterday by Ed w.
Hopkins, county assessor, and jeff Nc
Elvaine, who represents Southern CAL
ifornia on the state board. Mr.. Nc
Elvaine said:
1.-THE citations are in different form
from that of last year. This year they
were issued to show cause why the as
sessments should not be increased or
decreased, while last year an increase
only was indicated.
After going over the returns of all
the auditors we found assessment for
the entire state is only $76,000,00O less
than 1t was last year after the in
crease was made by the state board in
several counties, and I do not antici-
pate any radical action by the board
this fall"
According to Assessor Hopkins, the
nine counties cited are the wealthiest
counties in the state and together rep
resent at least two-thirds of the
states valuation. The counties which
must answer the citations are: Los
Angeles, San Francisco, Alameda,
Butte, San Joaquin, Riverside, San
Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Santa
Cruz.

POLICE MAKE RAID
ON CIGAR STANDS
CHARGE State Law Prohibiting
Bookmaking Is Violated at
Cohn's and GreeneWald'S
CARDS AND RECORDS SEIZED
Evidence of Lottery Is Claimed to
Have Been Discovered
in One Place
CARDS AND RECORDS SEIZED

After a months surveillance, squad
of plain clothes police officers under
the direction of Captain Charles Lehn-
hausen, in command Of central divi-
sion, yesterday raided the cigar
stands of Ellis Cohn, at 1T South
Spring, and AL Greenewald, at 1O7
South Spring street and in the Pa
cific Electric building, at Sixth and
Spring streets. Evidence of viola
tions of the state law prohibiting
booking is alleged to have been found
in the stands Of Cohn and GreeneWald's $
Spring street stores and evidence OF
lottery in the Pacific Electric building
stand of Greenewald.
c. Jewel, clerk in the employ Of
Cohn, and Abe Ankle, a clerk in Greene
wald's Pacific Electric stand, were ar
rested and released after they had de-
posted $500 cash bail to appear in
court this morning for their arraign-
ment. Warrants are out for the arrest
of Cohn and also a clerk in Greene
wald's Spring street store whose name
is withheld.
Sergeant Long assisted Captain
Lehnhausen at the Cohn stand and
Sergeant Butler conducted the Paclhc
Electric raid. They were assisted by
a number of plain clothes men. A mass
of books and cards and records We're
confiscated by the officers in each or
three places raided as evidence.
Jewel attempted to dispose of some
tickets which the officers say Will be
used as evidence, when he discovered
himself trapped. The clerk is alleged
to have tossed a bundle of papers to
barber standing in the doorway of the
Acorn barber shop, next to the cigar
stand The plan was frustrated by Pa
trolman Stevens, who intercepted and
confiscated the bundle.
Everything which was thought
might be used as evidence against the
alleged violators was seized by the
officers and taken to central police
headquarters.
Armed with search warrants two Of
ficers visited each of the stands SIM
ultaneously and served the papers.
Within a few seconds a squad of Off
GERS appeared on the scene and started
the work of searching the places for
evidence. Several officers were sta
toned along the sidewalk to keep a
crowd of curious persons from con-
gregating in front of the stands.
The police have had evidence, 1t is
alleged, that books were being con-
Quoted by the cigar stands in races,
elections, baseball games and every
thing else on which wagers could be
placed, for some time.

DEATH MAY CLAIM
GIRL WHO TASTED.
Alice Griffin, Member of Strange
Cult, Still Seriously III
at Hospital
COMPANIONS ARE IMPROVING
Young Woman Remains in Stupor
but Receives a Little
NouriShment
COMPANIONS ARE IMPROVING

Alice Griffin, youngest of the quar-
tet which tasted for weeks at 1913 Ben
ner street, hoping to receive gift
of tongues" as their reward, Is cling
ing to life with a steadily weakening
grasp, according to nurses in the coun-
ty hospital. One nurse gives her con-
stant attention and her case is being
watched closely by the house physician,
DR.. Hitler.
Thus far the odds are against her.
She is so weak and emaciated that her
recovery from the terrific ordeal into
which she was led by her elders and
her enthusiasm in q strange cause, is
improbable.
Mrs. Nellie Boyle, companion of the
Rev. John Irving O'Neil, the member
of the quartet already dead as result
of the fast, is recovering slowly. James
Butler also is gaining strength.
Both the older patients, apparently
persons about 35 years of age, are able
to speak, and are calm and reasonable,
but Alice Griffin lies almost in stupor
She receives nourishment without ap-
petite and her strength Is kept up by
heart and nerve tonics.
Yesterday afternoon she seemed lit
tie better than at the time of her ar
rival at the hospital, although the
nurse In charge believed her to be
weaker. She was unable to compre-
hend any questions asked her and had
apparently no realization of her condi-
tion.
Mrs. Boyle said she had little appe-
tite, but simply took the food as the
nurse offered it to her. The man is re-
covering rapidly. He asked to have a
message sent to Mrs. Phoebe Sargent,
a nurse, asking her to come and see
him. He could not give her address,
his dull, vital condition evidently hav-
ing affected his memory to some extent
He said that he had many things he
would like to have her attend to for
him.

Such is the message sent to Mrs.
c. B. Miner, wife of the missing broker
who is accused of having fled from
Los Angeles, leaving bad checks and
other obligations behind totaling more
than $4,000. The message was sent
by Emmett H. Wilson, a deputy city
attorney, who is in Glens Falls, N. Y.
This and other messages sent to Los
Angeles people by Wilson indicate that
he met Miner in Glens Falls, heard his
story and has become his attorney
pending a settlement of the brokers' S
financial troubles.
w. c. Patterson, vice president OF
the First National bank, has the fol-

Probably can make settlement. Please
inform other creditors. If necessary,
wire here. Leave here 25th. (Signed)
EMMETT H. WILSON"
The fact that Mr.. Wilson is deputy
city attorney of this city gives the
message weight among Miners credi-
tors, who are hoping that they will
realize something on their accounts
against the missing broker.
That Wilson may be able to make
some kind of settlement and has evil

II YEARS. ADVERTISING
COSTS FIRM S4,00O,00O
Head of Duffy Company Gives Re-
suits of His Concerns
Publicity Campaign
Branehi
2I26 South Hoover street.

One of the most remarkable cases
of advertising success during the past
decade or more Is that of Duffy's
pure malt whiskey. While this medic>
inal whiskey has been before the Amer
lean people since 1860, vigorous adver-
tising was only begun eleven years
ago, and during these eleven years this
company has paid to the daily news
papers of the United States about S4,-
100000 for advertising.
In an interview with w. B. Duffy,
founder Of the business, to whose
knowledge and business sagacity the
company owes its present high stand
ing. in answer to the question, ITO
what do you owe your great success?'
he said
First of all, to an article of merit,
skillfully and vigorously advertised.
Duffy's pure malt whiskey, made to
comply with the test requirements of
the United States Pharmacopeia, is
an article of purity and worth, as at
tested by scores of testimonials from
physicians and chemists. 1t is made
from carefully selected materials and
is as pure and clean a food medicine
as science and skill can produce.
'I always felt that with a meritori-
Gus article, if one could have the cour-
age to use the daily press literally,
SO as to acquaint the reader with the
real worth of the article advertised,
he would inevitably meet with sue
cess.
Being a great believer in the power
of the daily newspapers to convey to
the public a knowledge of q needed
article, I am convinced they are worth
all other mediums combined.
"Of course, / know there are peo-
pie who think they can advertise any
thing and make the people buy, with
out any regard to the merits of the
article. In my fifty years. experience
I have seen many advertisers start
and make failures: but this is not
the fault of the newspapers, the fault
lay with the inferior article and the
advertisers wrong conception of the
Judgment and intelligence of the Amer
lean people.
advertising is a science requiring
knowledge and skill. Your copy must
be convincing so as to attract the
attention of the consumers; the rest
depends on the standard of the goods
advertised.
"In our experience results from ad-
vertising in the daily newspapers have
been quick and satisfactory, and
as long as we continue to sell Duffy's
pure malt whiskey, an article as good
as represented, the public press will
be the means of informing the public
of the fact.
at have always refrained from Civ
ing interviews to the newspapers, but
in view of the benefit we have derived
from their powerful influence I feel
justified in the present statement.
"While many are complaining or
dullness Of business, ours, during the
past year, has been very satisfactory,
due, no doubt, to the extra advertis-
ing we have been doing.
''For the coming year, beginning
September, we propose to spend more
money in advertising than was ever
spent in any one year in the history
of our business and, from experience,
we believe the returns will warrant the
outlnu-n
