In LEAGUERS RENEW
SAN BERNARDINO WAR
Burke'S Choice of Chairman for
City Club Scratched by For
mer Mayor Hanford

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 25.-A
fresh row has broken out in the ranks
of the Lincoln Roosevelt league, and
the sentiment between the warning fac
tions is so strong that the prestige of
the club is threatened. Following fast
on an open fight between Chairman
w. P. Burke of the county club and
various members of the league in San
Bernardino who fought the adoption
of a resolution indorsing the Repub-
lican county candidates, all of whom
are regulars" trouble has now de-
veloped over the organization of the
city club.
Chairman Burke states that he
named as chairman of the committee
that was to organize the city club e. D.
Roberts, now on an eastern trip. The
organization of the city club, however,
was made by former Mayor ]. j. Han
ford, one of the men who are fighting
Burke, whose name in some manner,
it is charged was switched to the head
of the committee without Burke's con-
sent.
Burke now declares that the local
club will not be recognized until it is
properly organized.
Back of Chairman Burke are the
majority of the members of the club,
who desire to unite with the Repub-
lican organization in the election of all
Republican candidates. Hanford and
the men who are fighting with him are
former prominent members of the Re-
publican organization, but who have
been ousted.

NEW MEXICAN TROOPS
ARRIVE IN Los ANGELES
Veterans of Camp Atascadero
Spend a Day in City En-
Route HomeWard

Sunburned and a little sore from a
week of real war campaigning, yet in
good health and spirits from their out
ing, a number of the state militia of
New Mexico arrived in Los Angeles
yesterday from Camp Atascadero,
where they have been taking part in
the annual militia encampment in con-
junction with the California troops.
The New Mexico troops are forced
to- return home a week sooner than
the local troops on account of the long
railroad journey they have to make.
The government appropriates certain
amount to cover each regiments eX-
penses while in camp and they cannot
run over this amount. The troops from
New Mexico, having to pay so much
more railroad fare than the local mi
litia, did not have money enough re-
naming to provide provisions for lon
ger than one week, and as a result
were compelled to return home at the
end of that time.
The troopers report an excellent va
cation while in camp and also some
good hard work. The encampments
are conducted as near as possible in
the same manner as in time of war and
conditions are made similar To those
existing at such time. The troops
were given strenuous all-day marches
and several sham battles to test their
knowledge of military. duty, and were
required to do stunts on the hills sur
rounding the camping grounds which,
according to the men, thoroughly test
ed their endurance ability.
The New Mexican troops left last
evening on their return journey to New
Mexico, while the state troops will re-
main in camp for another week.

GIRL ROBBED BY BANDIT
SUFFERS NERVOUS SHOCK
Miss Alice ouibeI's Description
Aids Police in Search

Miss Alice Quibell OF 615 Loomis
street, who was held up by a high
wayman and robbed of 50 and gold
pin early Saturday evening, while
walking on Orange street, near Figue-
roa, was i'll yesterday as the result OF
the nervous shock due to her ex-
perience. Her condition, however, is
not serious, and it is believed that she
will be at her usual occupations today.
Miss Quibell, although badly fright
ened, kept perfectly cool while facing
the robber. She gave the police a
complete description of the man, a
description far more complete in detail
than that furnished by any of the
men who have had experiences with
highwaymen during the recent series
Of holdups in this city. Commanded
at peril of her life to keep her eyes
shut while the robber was making his
escape, the girl opened them and care
fully observed the course he took in
running away. Then she hurried to
her home, gave a quick call for the
police, calmly described the man to
the officers and then tainted.
AS a result Of the girls observation
and courage the police have a clew on
which they confidently expect to cap
ture the robber. Private detectives
are also working on the case. Miss
Quibell was not harmed in any way
by the robber, who seemed in a great
hurry to get her money and then
escape.

evator accident several days ago, Is
recovering from his injuries at the Sis

sent words of sympathy and beautiful
tributes of regard, / must content my
self for the present with publicly
thanking them collectively through the
public press, which l do from most
appreciatice and grateful heart. The
night has beauties which the day, can

slight a touch of nature makes the

at Mexican Fiesta
NEAR.VICTIM ALSO ADDS GIFT

Varied Entertainment
NEAR-VICTIM ALSO ADDS GIFT

For his bravery and quick action In
shooting charging bull as the mad
dened animal bore down on a crowd,
endangering many lives, at the recent
Mexican independence celebration at
Schuetzen park, Bert e. Rico, deputy
sheriff, was yesterday presented with
q handsome gold medal by the women
of the Vaquero club. The presentation
was the feature Of the clubs monthly
barbecue dinner given at the club
grounds on the Colegrove electric line
about eight miles from this city.
The medal was presented through
Louis Rico and Ralph Plummer who,
In their presentation talks, graphically
described the incident of the bull
falling before the unerring aim of the
deputy sheriff just as he had crashed
through the bull ring and was charg-
ing the Unlocking thousands. After the
presentation addresses, as the strains
of California for Nine" sung by
chorus of Spanish American boys and
girls, f1oated to the ears of the large
attendance present, Rico, seated on his
horse, was handed the medal by Louis
Rico. The man thr5 honored, in words
full of feeling, thanked the gtvers.
The medal is about the size of ten
dollar gold piece. On the front side
is a white enameled flag OF the Native
Sons of the Golden West, of which Mr..
Rico is a member, and on the other
is the following inscription, Presented
to Bert e. Rico for bravery, Septem-
Der Is, 1910.'
To show her thankfulness for Rico's
act, Miss Cora roy, who was directly
in the path of the charging animal,
presented him with gold bar on
which to hang the medal. Mrs. Thomas
LiIliard initiated the movement for the
presentation of the medal. A move

earn 7gie hero fund.
The Vaquero club grounds were ideal
yesterday for the picnic and barbecue
Large spreading pepper trees furnished
an abundant shade and the numerous
green hedges made the place bower
of green even in early autumn.
Over the banquet tables a roof of
palm leaves shaded the diners from
the sun, and a shade similarly con-
structed protected the dancers at the
pavilion. Under the spreading shade
of several large pepper trees at two
brick fire places many white-aproned
chefs busily broiled steaks and con-
cocted many varieties Of famous Spans
ish dishes which met with general
favor among the diners.
After the dinner those inclined o
dance waltzed to their hearts content
at the dance pavilion, and those who
like to watch clever horsemanship had
the opportunity to watch the feats of
the best riders that the Vaquero club
boasts.
Enrique Robles, the famous bull
fighter from Spain, donned his bull
fighting costume and aided in recalling
the vivid scene when Rico shot the
charging animal at Schuetzen park.
Later he sang la Paloma" at the
dance pavilion, and was roundly ap-
plauded.

JAPAN PASSIVE ON
PANAMA DEFENSES
Tokyo Paper Says Nippon Will
Oppose Forts Only if They
Menace Worlds Peace

VICTORIA, B. c., Oct. 9.-Japanese
newspapers received today contain
much comment on Americas relations
with the orient.
The Yerodzu Shoho of Tokyo, dis
cussing the reports concerning the for
tification of the Panama canal, says:
Since the construction of the
Panama canal has been undertaken
by the United States quite sinde-
pendently the question of fortify-
ing the canal should be entirely
left to her own discretion. Japan,
unlike Great Britain, does not
possess any legal grounds on which
to lodge a protest against the
United States in this respect and
will not. of course. interfere with
the defense works OF the canal.
But at the same time she has no
reason to assist in the consumma-
ton of the work. If, however, the
defense works or any part of the
canal provisions should be found
of such nature as to menace the
peace of the world. and as such
calls forth the unanimous protest
of the powers, Japan will not. in
that case maintain merely pas
sive attitude.
The Hochi Shimbun says thatsif the
result of the visit of the United States
secretary of war to Peking be an al
lance between China and America the
result will be unproftable to. China,
which will have to pay dearly for
Americas protection.
