PRESIDENT OF
union KILLED
in STRIKE ROW
Pitched Battle Between Rival
WOrkmen at Iron Works
Ends Fatally
Labor Officials Slayer Says He
Was Beaten by Victim and
Shot in SeIf-Defense

In pitched battle between two fac
tions of boiler scalers at the Union
iron works yesterday morning, Domin
so Navarro, president of the scalers
union. was shot and instantly killed by
Aguitin Aravalo. said to be non
union worker. Aravalo, who was badly
beaten in the general melee which pre-
ceded the shooting. was arrested by
Sergeant O'CaIahan and posse and
charged with murder.
The killing Of Navarro was the result
OF labor difficulties which cropped out
at the iron works several days ago
when August Schafer, labor agent for
scaling contractor named William r.
Owens, announced a cut in wages. The
men employed on the scaling work al
the time refused to accept the cut and
walked out.
OPPOSITION UNION
Yesterday morning Schafer appeared
at the works with crowd Of so or
more men ready to go TO work. These
men claim to be members of a union
which they formed in opposition to
the union Of which Navarro was presl-
dent and were willing to work for the
reduced wage. Assembled inside the
fence at the iron works were Navarro
and 100 Of the men affiliated with his
organization. They exhorted the men
IN charge Of Schafer not to so TO work,
but the latter refused. A general fight
followed. IN which bricks and clubs
were used. During the fight Aravalo
shot and killed Navarro.
The stories told the police by mem
bers Of the two factions differ as TO
NavarrO's part in the affair The men
under Navarro assert that their leader
y -f- he 4 ~
the men under Schafer and was shot
deliberately. In contradiction TO this
is the story told by AravalO. who told
the police that he fired in self-defense
after being set upon and beaten by
several men, prominent among whom
was Navarro According 10 Aravalo he
was trying to elude the members Of
the opposite faction when he was
caught and knocked down by Navarro,
who was armed with a club. He says
that he tried TO get away. but was re-
peatedly knocked down and kicked and
beaten until he was forced to shoot TO
save his life. Aravalos story is borne
out in SO far as his being beaten is
concerned, as he presented a pitiable
appearance in the prison yesterday.
His face was literally hammered to q
pulp; his clothes were torn and disar-
ranged and his body bore innumerable
bruises and contusfons.
TRIAL TO BE HARD FOUGHT
The trial Of Aravalo on the murder
charge promises TO be bitterly fought,
as the members Of the scalers' union.
10 which the dead man belonged, will
furnish funds 10 conduct a speciai pros
ecution. while the labor contractors for
whom the accused murderer worked
are determined TO defend the man to
the end, TO prove that he acted in self
defense and that the shooting was
5ustifable.
Navarro was a man about 35 years
Of age and lived with his wife at 81
Bauman street. He had no children.
Little is known OF Aravalo. who is q
Porta Rican and does not speak Eng
lish, having been in the United States
but q short time

FARM PRODUCTION
told IN BILLIONS
Corn Is King, as Value Exceeds
That of Any Other Ameri=
can Grown Crop

WASHINGTON. Dec Nothing
short of omniscience can grasp the
value of the farm products of this year,
is the statement of the secretary of
agriculture in his annual report for
1910, published today AT no time in
the worlds history has a country pre-
duced farm products within one year
with a value reaching sS.s2s.OOo.o 600
which is the value of the agricultural
products of this country for 1910.
The corn crop of 3,121.3 .3S1, 600 bush
els exceeds that of the record year 1905
and is greater than the average crop
Of the preceding five years by IA per
cent. While the value of this corn crop
is below that of 1909 and also of 1908
its amount is $1,000. 100000.
The cotton crop may be worth in lint
and seed $500. 900. 600 at the farm. The
value of the hay crop is about $780,
100000 The production of spring and
winter wheat is 691, 767, 900 bushels
valued at S625.00O. 900.
The fifth crop in point of value is
oats. the value of which is $3.50 000, 900
and the volume of which will exceed
1000, 600, 600 bushels. The years potato
crop is 32s,7S7 900 bushels.
other crops are valued by the sec.
retary as follows: beet sugar, $51, ,000,-
600; cane sugar, s2S.O00.O 900; tobacco
Se5.000,0O0; barley, s97.000,0oO; fa9
seed, S33.O0o.000; rye, s23. 600; rice
S16,o00,0OO.
The farmer receives hardly more
than half of the consumers price il
the case of poultry; SO per cent in the
case of eggs; cabbage 4S per cent wher
bought by the head and 65 per cen
when bought by the pound; celery, 81
per cent when bought by the bunch.
The California ground squirrel is
costing the country millions of dollars
because of its destruction of grain
fruits and nuts, and its tunneling in
irrigation embankments In May, 1910
it caused a break in the Turlock canal
in Stanislaus county, which cost S25,0 00C
to repair, in addition to the loss Of the
use of the water, estimated at over
$500, 900 The most effective means o1
destroying the ground squirrels has
been found to be whole barley coated

WORRY PRESIDENT
Taft Faces Problem in Filling
Vacancies in Supreme
Court
Regular and Insurgent Repub-
Iicans Differ as to Qualifica=
tions of Judgeships

WASHINGTON, Dec. President
Taft is reported by persons who pro-
fess to know something of his views
to be- disappointed and somewhat cha
grined over the situation that has arisen
in connection with the pending supreme
court appointments.
The presidents consultations with
the regular and ''insurgent' republic
ans and with the democrats of the
senate have developed difference OF
opinion among the members of the
upper house which promises to make
the presidents already difficult task
much harder one. The president has
consulted as many senators as possi-
bic in order to be sure that the nomi-
nations he makes will be acceptable
to the confirming body.
The "insurgent" senators. 1T Is said,
are insisting that the new judges shall
be men of sufficiently advanced ideas
to decide questions of the day along
broad lines and not be bound by mere
legal technicalities. The regular re-
publicans, on the other hand, are not
willing that these theories rs to judg-
ship qualifications shall be the deter
mining factor as to the fitness of can
didates.
Democratic senators have begun in
sisting that one of the new justices
shall be a democrat. The death of
Chief Justice Fuller left only two DEM
ocrats on the supreme bench-Justices
White and Lurton.

NEW YORK. March 2e.-The statement of

The Financier will say:
Due probably to the $50, 600 city bond
sale as much as anything else, the statement or
actual conditions shown by the clearing house
banks on Saturday was in direct contrast with
the exhibit of the previous week.
Loans rose S27 401 500, deposits made a cor
responding gain of 500, 720, 900. while the gain
in cash was So 2s6. 800. The increased deposits
neceSsitated a heavier cash reserve, and this ac-
counts for the falling off in the excess reserve
of 81. 143, ,925, making the net surplus at the
end of the week above the % per cent legal min
imum $40 sos. 725. The statement OF averages
issued Saturday did not reflect the operations or
the current week, and the surplus reserve, Inquired
the basis of average operations, was Slf. ~
200. The trust companies and other institutions
outside the clearing house showed gain for the
week of 81 ,307. 700 in loans, decrease OF
So 100. 600 in cash and increase of $3,5IS, 100
in net deposits.
The loans of the banks now practically as
