PROMOTER FLEtCEC
Tex Ricard. Head of the Big
Mill Says California Law
yers Gouged Him.

(American News Service)

Reno, New. July Eek Richard
and Jim Jeffries got into some more
legal difficulties here last night when
the law firm of Summerfield and Curl
er, which drew up the contract few
days ago covering the sale of Richard $
and Jeffries' end OF the motion pic
lures. served notice on the officials OF
the Nixon National Bank that they
intended to attach the 100000 held in
escrow. to secure payment of their
fees aggregatiug $4,000.
The bank officials Immediately got
in touch with JEFF and Richard and a
conference ar the bank was called. at
which Sam Berger represented Jeff
ries.
Both Berger and Richard thought
the claim was eXhorbitant and said so
in decided terms. but the attorneys
held firmly to the price demanded.
The talk is said to have grown decid-
eddy warm all around, but finally a
compromise was effected on a $4,000
basis
Though Rickard is on only one-third
in the 100000 to be turned over when
the first gong is sounded Monday aft
crnoon, he agreed to stand one half
Of the $4,000 as he had recommended
the attorneys, it is claimed.
Richard is having so many Of these
difficulties that he merely laughs at
them now. Just before he left San
Francisco to come here his $4,000 au-
tomobile was attached by an attorney
who claimed a fee of $500 for drawing
up a contract that Richard says con-
sisted of but forty words. Richard
was so angry at this that he did not
attempt a compromise at all, but left
bond and declares he will fight the
case if it costs him a fortune.

Government Publicity Bureau
Will Hereafter Hand Out
All Official News.
JOURNALIST IN CHARGE
A. o. AiNslEE, KNOWN TO THE
NEWSPAPER WORLD, WILL
HEAD THE CORPS OF RE-
PoRTERs.

San Antonio. Texas, July 2.-Hereaf-
ter no official OF the Mexican govern
ment may make statement to the
press affecting administrative af-
fairs. Not even the governors OF the
various states may do so and whatev-
or statement they or other govern
ment officials may have to make to
the press will be made through a
news bureau to be operated under the
supervision OF the central government.
According to circular letter just
sent out by the Mexican Department
OF the Interior. the bureau became act
i've on July I.
In charge Of the news bureau Is Ale
jandra d. Ainslee, a Scotch Mexican,
formerly editor OF FL impartial, a gov
eminent organ. and now member of
the Chamber OF Deputies from the
State OF Tamaulipas. Working under
him Is corps of assistants, most OF
them newspapermen. Mr.. Ainslee Is
said to, be peculiarly fitted for the
work. He Is great linguist in Span
ish. English. German and French. and
best journalists In Mexico.
According to a statement made by
the Mexican government the news
service was not established with a
View Of controlling information on its
affairs but to make II easy for all
publications to get accurately such
news as the government may have to
give out. II Is claimed by the men in
charge that competition among Mexi-
can newspapers has OF late become
80 acute that many of them do no
longer adhere to the strict truth in
their quotation Of governmental mat
tiers. To overcome this the bureau
has been established.
One Of the departments OF the bu.
reau will give out information OF an
Industrial character either to the press
or to the public direct. For all news
given out by It the bureau assumes
responsibility and SO In manner
does the Department of the Interior.

 The mayor denied that any such ae- ton was contemplated and added that he favored the acts of the policemen in getting evidence against violatiore oh the law by any legal method, and that he did not want the policemen to get the impression from printed reports that they had anything to fear from the present administration for doing their full duty. no natter who the vio- lator of the law happened to be. for he was playing no faVoritea, and he would not permit the policemen to make any distinction in the performance of their duty. He would expect, however, f@ have the policemen, from capfaan to supernurnerary to live close to Che line of the accepted police regulations and that some of the existing minor abuses must be rcmedied. It is not his pur~ pose to impose any hardship upon any member of the police force but will insist that they give the best possible service to the city.
 In this connection 1t is just a h4t peculiar for the mayor to openly de- clare that he is opposed 10 the eNpeu~ allure of the money appropriated for new police signal system. even # tho appropriation was recommended by the previous court of common council and appropriated in annual city meet ing for that specific purpOge. He would divert the money towards pav- ing Bank street with vitrihed brick. This action is a surprise to some of the mayors strongest adherents. for ho has ever posed as an advocate Of pro gressiveness and it was dinirult for these to believe that the mayor was really in earnest in this backward r vement. While there is need for vltrified brick in Bank street, there iH also need for police signal system and there should be both. The peo- pie in city meeting assembled havo voted in favor of tho signal system and that vote should be respected. Later on appropriation for the paving could be taken into consideration.
