MURRAY WINNER OF
THE EXHIBITION GAME
Both Managers Save Their Men for
Big Game Today, Which
Ends Series.

In a game that bore every indication
OF the exhibition game and with both
managers saving their men for the big
game tomorrow, Murray won from the
Credentials yesterday at Murray. 8 TO 4.
With Maggie Murphy in the box Muir
ray had all the best of IL as Manager
Black refused TO take any chances with
either Mooney or LanEfOrd.
The OccidentaIs got one run in the
flrst inning but after that Murray took
the lead and walked home. Billy Lane
started on the slab for the Occiden-
tails but gave way 20 Hawkins. VINO
in turn allowed Langley to finish the
game.
Lawrence started in to umpire but
got off bad and quit in the third in
ming. There were several wagers on
the game and the question of umpire
was settled by the Occidental rooters
who asked for Manager Bert Margetts
OF Murray. Margetts was not playing
but went in and finished the game as
umpire and without a kick against his
decisions.
The shifting Of the Occidental PLAYERS
finally lodged Mooney behind the bat
and the antics OF the pitcher were
worth the price OF admission.
Murray was there with the stick and
the batting practice made good work
out FOR the game today.

poration, plaintiff and appellant, VS.
A. f.. Lundy, defendant and respond
cnt.
|. Following First National Bank
of St. Thomas, VS.. Flath, 10 N. d..
PSI, it is held that an action by a
purchasers, in due course of a nego'
table promissory note, that the bur
den is cast upon the plaintiff to show
himself purchaser in due coure, etc
when the defendant pleads and estab
fishes the fact that the note was OBJ
tanned by the original payee through
fraud, but that such burden is sus
tanned by the endorsee, plaintiff
showing purchase for full value and
before maturity; and further, tia!
good faith does not require the pur
chaser TO make inquiry as to the pur'
pose for which note was given OF
as to the existence of possible de-
lenses, and that bad faith Is only
imputed from knowledge or notice OF
fraud or defenses and that mere
knowledge or notice of suspicious
circumstances will not defeat a re-
covery. Held, further, that this rule
has not been relaxed by the enact
ment of the negotiable instruments
Of law.
2. To defeat recovery on a nego
table prOmissOry note purchaser be
fore mature. where the defense Is
fraud in the inception of the note
it must be shown that the endorsee
had actual knowledge of the infirm-
ity or defect, or knowledge of such
facts as to amount to bad faith.
3. Section 67O2, r. c. 1905, pro-
vides that constructive notice is no
tice imputed by the law to a person
not having actual notice, and section
67O3, Il. G. 1905, that every person
who has actual notice of circumstan
ces sufficient to put a prudent man
upon inquiry and who omits to make
such inquiry with reasonable dill
gence, is deemed to have construc
tive notice of the fact itself, since the
enactment upon negotiable instru
ments law. have no application to &C
tons upon negotiable instruments in
the hands of endorses before matur
ity. if they ever had such application
being superseded by section 635S
which defines notice in such case as
actual knowledge Of the infirmity OF
defect or knowledge of such facts as
to amount to bad faith.
1. In an action brought by an en-
dorsee before maturity to recover an
negotiable promissory note, evidence
that persons other than the defend
ant had given notes for similar
consideration. which notes had been
placed in the hands of the plaintiff
bank merely for co.lection. which
bank had been informed by the max
ers that they suspected fraud in the
inception of the notes, who therefor
informed the bank that matters were
satisfactory and paid the notes. is
inadmissible.

YOUNG WOMAN OF APPARENT
WEALTH APHASIA VICTIM

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Waiting un-
til her returning memory will enable
her to tell who she is, or friends who
read of her plight call for her, young
woman of refinement and apparent
wealth is detained today at Lincoln
hospital.
BY all the outward signs, clothes,
manner and conversation, the aphasia
victim is person well above the aver
age social station, but SO far she has
not been able to give the slightest
clew to her identity or even to remem-
Der whether she lives in New York.
She wears several valuable gems.
Showing signs of mental distress,
the girl wandered into the Bronx
branch Of the Y. M. C. A. The police
theory is that she came into the city
on some suburban train, and in con-
fusion alighted at Bronx station.

Strange Shaking of the Earth in
Northern Arizona Causes
nAnchmen to Flee

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Sept 27.-Re-
markable disturbances OF earth con-
tinue north of Flagstaff, extending
through to Grand Canyon.
]. p. Chaves, a well known stock
man, living at a point known as Cedar
Wash, brought in his family, and others
have since followed. All of the fugi-
tives were much alarmed. Chaves
adobe house was shaken from its fOun-
dation, a corner cracked and the CHM
ney toppled off. Lava stones weighing
many tons were torn from the lava bed
and hurled down the mountain side
Only a few stockmen are living In that
section. Those who have come in re-
fuse to go back.
The rumbiings seem to come from
the direction OF the Grand Canyon, and
are heard for a distance Of forty or
fifty miles along the mountains. The
earth trembled almost continually Sat
urday, Sunday and Monday, OCCASION
ally with much violence. Both the
whites and Indians have fed from the
region covered by the shocks. Thirty
to forty old volcanoes and craters are
in the section. but so far as known
they have shown no sign of activity.
The phenomenon is believed to be due
to a faulty formation in the earth's
crust which is slipping. The whole
country Is of volcanic origin. No alarm
is felt in Flagstaff.

MUNICIPAL ROAD
PLANNED BY CITY
Council Orders the Public Works
Board to Name Most Prsc-
ticabIe Route to Harbor

First steps for the municipal railroad
which is to connect the business dis
trict of Los Angeles with Los Angeles
harbor were taken yesterday when
Councilman Miles Gregory introduced
a resolution in the council calling on
the board of public works to report to
the council at the earliest possible date
the most practicable route for the mu-
nicipal railway from a convenient point
in Los Angeles, near the business dis
trict, to the water front at Wilmington
and San Pedro.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted.
The city engineer has been working
on this project, but is not ready to re-
port, for 1t is subject that requires
serious consideration. 1t is probable
that San Pedro street may be selected
for this municipal railway, and If it is,
suit will have to be brought to forfeit
the franchise of the Los Angeles rail-
way on that street The city holds that
the franchise on San Pedro street Is
invalid, because a portion of the line
was not constructed within the time
limit set in the franchise, which re-
uuired that all the line must be COM
pleted within the time set.
Suit was brought several years ago
to forfeit that portion of the line that
was not constructed when it should
have been, and the city won its case.
The disputed portion Of the line is in
operation on a lease from the city, the
railway paying a stipulated rental, al
though it is nominal.
The city has the right under the char
ter to construct and operate a munich
pal railway. This right was conferred
by a vote Of the people in February,
1909, when 1t was approved among sew
eral other charter amendments.
