CHIRICAHUA FOREST
AREA CUT DOWN.
Most of the Examinations Are on New
Mexico Side While Additions
are Made in Arizona.

Washington, D. c., July 25.-The
President has signed a proclamation
adding 3O.560 acres to, and at the
same time eliminating 57,297 acres
from, the Chiricahua national forest,
Arizona and New Mexico. These
changes are the result of a careful
examination made by the secretary OF
agriculture last summer, which show.
ed that the areas excluded are not
needed for forest or watershed pro
lection.
The most important of these
changes is the elimination of a large
area, consisting for the most part OF
grass land, On the southern and
eastern boundaries of the New Mex.
leo division, which was formerly
known as the Peloncillo national for
est. This will leave Sanders Pass and
the surrounding territory on the
southern slope of the Animas range
entirely outside the forest lines.
Smaller eliminations of nOn-forest
lands are made from the Chiricahua
and Peloncillo divisions.
The additions comprise a number
of areas of juniper and pinon scatter
ed along the exterior boundaries of
the Chiricahua, Peloncillo and Ora
COON divisions. The latter division by
the recent proclamations has been
transferred from the Coronado to the
Chiricahua forest.
The unappropriated portions of the
lands eliminated by this proclamation
will be restored to settlement and
entry after having been advertised in
the local papers by the secretary of
the interior.

Los Angeles Times Building
Destroyed by Fearful
Explosion.
20 OR MORE MEN KILLED
Leaders of Labor Union Deny
Responsibility for Wreck
ing Building.

Los Angeles, CAL, Oct. S.-The
building and plant of the Los An
geles Times, one Of the best known
newspapers Of the Southwest. and
Iof which Gen. Harrison Gray Otis is
editor and principal owner, was com
pleteIy destroyed by an explosion
and fire soon after o'clock a. m.
Saturday, resulting in the death Of
upward Of twenty Of its employees
and financial loss of nearly half a
million dollars.
The management of the paper lays
the blame of the explosion to the
labor unions, with which organiza
tions the paper has long been en-
gagged in bitter warfare. 1t is charg-
ed that unknown persons set off a
charge of dynamite in blind alley
which ran into the center Of the
building, completely wrecking the
interior and setting it on fire from
roof to be sement.
An attempt to destroy the resi-
dence of Gen. Harrison Gray Otis,
publisher of the Los Angeles Times,
by means of an internal machine
was made the same afternoon. Fol.
lowing as it does the explosion which
with great loss of life, destroyed
the buildings and plant of the Times,
a suspected effort to blow up the
auxiliary plant of the paper and the
finding Of a powerful Internal ma
h ne in the residence o. S ccetaIy
Zeehandelaar, of the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association, the at
tempted outrage has wrought this
city to an intense state of suspense
and excitement.
Gen. Otis and the other RESPONSE
BILE heads of the paper unequivocal
| ly charge the Times Building disas
ter and the narrowly averted at
tempts at further destruction o.
life and property, to labor unior
sources.
With equal emphasis the leader
of union labor here and Throughout
the State repudiate the accusation
and have offered all aid in thei
power in the effort to detect tn
culprits.

Another Attempt.

Assistant General Manager Chan
der of the Times, is authority for
the statement that similar attempt
was made to blow up the Times
plant at College and San
Fernando streets few minutes be-
fore the explosion occurred which
destroyed the main building.
The succession of tragic events
and the rumors of attempted out
RACES set the populace of Los Ange-
les in state of mind bordering on
panic. Hundreds of policemen and
detectives were busy in every direc.
ton running down clues and en-
deavoring to locate the alleged per-
petrators of the crimes. But two
arrests have been made. and these
were only on suspicion.
The President of the local Typo.
graphical Union issued orders that
union printers may work in conjunc,
ton with the non union printers OF
the Times in any of the local new:
paper offices in getting out the
edition of the Times. This was an
nounced after a consultation of the
