COTTON COMPANY WILL
OPERATE IN IMPERIAL,
Calfornians Take Initiative In Organs
lzlng New Industrial
Concern

Articles of Incorporation were filed
yesterday for the California Cotton
company, whose principal business Is
to grow cotton in Imperial valley. The
signers of the application are prom
inent ranch owners and business men
of Los Angeles and Memphis, Tenn.
The president will be Joseph r. Lot
tus, president of the Joseph r. Lotus
company of this city, who was prime
mover in introducing cotton into I'M
perial valley. Last year, realizing the
possibilities of growing cotton there, he
made a trip through the south, shipped
in a carload of seed, guaranteed a gin
and a market to his friends if they
would plant and planted himself large
acreage in cotton. Others in the COM
pany are j. T. Walker of Memphis,
Tenn, who has been in the cotton and
cotton seed business for a number Of
years; w. II. Kindig, M. M. Dorfmeier
and II. c. Chase, all of Los Angeles.
1t was originally intended to form
very large company. but on account OF
the very limited time before cotton
planting it was decided to make the
capital stock only $4,000 for the pres
ent to demonstrate the possibilities of
a large company along the same lines
This capital will enable the planting OF
1000 to 5000 acres in cotton.

Jake De Roster, champion Of the
world; Eddie Lingenfelder, the 10-mile
national professional champion; f. r..
Whittier, the Pacific coast champion,
and Arthur Mitchell who defeated
many Of the eastern riders, will com
pete in this race, and should put up
one of the most thrilling contests ever
seen on any track in the world.
Notwithstanding this interesting
event the center of attraction will be
the match race between De Roster and
the undefeated Whittld. Most Of the
Knowing ones think the Frenchman
will meet his conqueror in this event.
BE this as it may whoever wins will
know he was in the race, as these two
riders are the nerViest of men and the
determination with which they will
enter this contest will lead them to
desperation and cause them to take any
chance to win this race, which should
produce enough frills and excitement
to be worth the price of admission
alone.
There are also four other events in
which the local trade riders will again
contribute their share of excitement

POLICE ARREST 27
IN CHINATOWN RAID
EVIDENCE OF GAMBLING Is Sc
CURED
All Chez, Charged as Proprietor, Sup
plies Bail for All to Total
Amount of $3.50

After watching for ten days to OBJ
tain evidence that gambling and lottery
games were being played in the build
ing at 51S August alley, in the China
town district, "a squad of patrolmen un-
der direction of Sergeant Sebastta AN
raided the place last night, arrested
the alleged proprietor. Ah Chez, and
twenty-siX persons, including three
women and boy.
The patrol wagon made several trips
before all the prisoners were taken to
the police station, where All Chez
promptly asked the amount OF bail. He
was told that it was necessary for him
to retain his liberty to deposit 500
cash bail.
Taking a roll of bills from his pock-
et Chez gave the desk sergeant a $l00
bill, and then asked what the bail for
the other prisoners would be. When
informed that each would have to de-
posit $40 for appearance in court this
morning, or remain in Jail, Chez again
produced the roll, counted the number
of prisoners, and handed the desk SER
geant $3.50. Thus every person cap
tured in the raid was released on bail.
1t was the first time in the history
of Chinatown raid that the proprie-
tor of the place furnished bail for those
captured in the establishment by the
raiding officers.
Among those arrested were three
women, one white and two negroes. At

Young Sattler was not allowed bail,
although All Chez was willing to give
it, but owing to his age was sent to the
detention home.
The Chinatown squad waited outside
the All Chez rooms. and as one person
was leaving, jumped in before the doors
could be closed.

Trade Matters Are Discussed, witt
Special Attention Paid to the
Coming Convention to Be
Held at San Francisco

The fifth annual banquet of the Los

was held last night in Delmonico's res

than 100 druggists were in attendance.

"You can't be broad and pass all your
time accommodating your stamp

AMATEUR CHAMPION
RETIRES FROM GAME
Disappointed In Not Being Sent to
National Tournament, Cliff Reu-
man Announces His With
draWal from Sport

Cliff Reuman. the undisputed anna
Pacific coast, holding the northwest.
the Pacific coast and the Southern
California championships, in a letter
to The Herald yesterday emphatlcally
announced his withdrawal from the
boxing game for good. The champion
gives his reason for withdrawing from
the game in the following words:
"Since starting in the amateur box
ing game as the rawest amateur and
ending as the undisputed middleweight
of the Pacific coast wish to state
that / shall quit the boxing game for
the following two reasons:
First, that | cannot gain higher
laurels on the coast than i already
have, as the Los Angeles Athletic CLUB
directors have decided not to send any
boxers to the national championships,
the winning of which was my one am
bition while in the game and my
friends thought that l had an excel
lent chance.
Second, some of my friends thought
that because | was an amateur boxer
| was classed the same as a profess
sonal prize fighter, which does not
give any young fellow the best kind
of a reputation.
"These are my reasons for quitting
the sport after having won every
championship for the Los Angeles Ath-
letic club in which / have competed,
having always represented that or
ganization."
with the retirement of Reuman 1t
again is up to that veteran instruc-
tor In the manly art, De Witt Van
Court, to develop another champion in
the mlddleweight division. This will
be no easy task, as no middleweight
material has developed in the clubs
boxing ranks lately and from the pres
ent outlook it is doubtful whether
the club will have representative
in this division.

At a meeting the other day in
the Exchange building the Bankers
league was formed again for the third
successive year, through the influence
of Red Perkins, who has organized
more leagues than any other promoter
in Southern California. The teams that
will be in the organization are as fol-
lows: First Nationals, German Ameri-
cans, Merchants Nationals, Citizens
and Title Guarantee and Trust COM
pany. 1t was decided to play out a
series of fifteen weeks, starting April
8. 1t was also decided at this meeting
to have a playing list of eighteen men
on the various teams. The members
of this organization will consist of
bank employees with the exception Of
James Gray of the First Nationals,
James Reinhard of the German Ameri-
cans and one or two other charter
members not working at present with
any banking firm in Los Angeles. At
last nights meeting the Goldsmith ball
was officially adopted, and the winners
of the league series will be donated a
pennant by the same firm. George
Pickerel was elected temporary chair
man and S. e. Boles temporary secre-
tary. Another league meeting will be
held tonight at o'clock at the same
place to complete organization.
Both the Vernon and Los Angeles
teams went through their spring train
ing stunts yesterday at Chutes park
and the south side, despite the handi-
cap of soggy grounds. The teams are
rounding into shape and the outlook is
that both. clubs will be in almost per-
feet condition when the season opens,
barring all accidents. The Angels,
while not rushing things, are in better
shape than they were last season, while
the Haps look as good already and are
such gluttons for work that some of
