pBiG AVIATION MEET
OPENS TOMORROW.

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. 1.-The
aviation meet to be held in this city,
February &c, under the auspices Of
the San Antonio Press Club, promises
to be one of the most popular exhibit
tions of well known birdmen ever
given in the south. While this city
has seen aviators on two different oc'
casions, they have not come here un-
der such popular auspices as that of
the Press Club nor at season of the
year SO promising for unusual and
sensational stunts in air navigation.
The Press Club, too, is giving the
meet wide publicity and the newspa-
pers throughout the state are aiding
in this effort. It is expected that
both altitude and endurance records
will be smashed here. Another thing
that adds to the interest Is the expert
ment that has been made at Fort
Sam Houston near this city in the use
of the flying machine for military
purposes, particularly its use in time
of actual war. Those connected with
the army here expect to be much ben
efitted by the exhibition Of the avia-
tors and they will be watch very care
fully by those at the Fort who are in
terested in aviation.

PEOPLE LEAVING CALIFORNIA
ON ACCOUNT OF EARTHQUAKES

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. 1.-For
the past two years there has been a
steady inflow Of people from Cali
fornia to Southwest Texas, those com
ing here having been attracted by the
climate and the adaptability of soil
and general conditions for citrus fruit
and vegetable culture. This immigra.
tion from the Pacific Slope to this
part of the country has been very
much augmented lately by the pur-
chase Of a large ranch in Jackson
county southeast of this city which
will be divided into small citrus fruit
farms and occupied by people who
have grown familiar with the culture
of this fruit in California. 1t is
maintained by those in a position to
know that natural conditions are bet
ter for the cultivation Of oranges,
lemons, grapefruit and many varie-
ties of the grape than in California.
The fact, too, that nurseries find
ready sale for all the young trees
they can produce is another argument
in favor of Southeast Texas as cit
rus fruit country. On the tract re-
ferred to irri alton will be used, the
water coming from artesian wells, the
source Of which is but few hundred
feet below the surface. Many set
tiers are leaving California on ac-
count of the earthquakes.

trict endeavoring to learn the source
of the fire, added to the excitement of
thousands, who hurried white-faced
from scores of office buildings. Pan.
les occurred in number Of down
town office buildings, which shook as
if from an earthquake, and employees
and tenants made rush for the ele-
vators and stairways. Great damage
was done to the government immigra-
ton station on Ellis Island. Hun
dreds Of windows were smashed and
many employees were cut by frag'
ments of glass. Three great holes

CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT
Senator Lorimer Charged With
Direct knowledge of Bribery
in His Behalf.

Albany, n. Y, Feb 1.-The enact
ment of a drastic corrupt practices
law with maximum. penalty of ten
years Imprisonment and $4,000 fine for
the failure of any legislator to re.
port Immediately any attempt to buy,
or influence his vote, and the adoption
of reform in fire insurance laws of
the state are recommended in a
lengthy report of legislative investi.
eating committee to the legislature to-
day. The drafts of the proposed new
laws are included with the report.
The investigating committee was ap-
pointed by the legislature of 1910.
1t found an abundance of evidence
of graft, allegations of which have
been made in connection with the
payment by the state of the beet sugar
bounty, the passage of the anti-race
track gambling law and the milk
laws.
Did Lorimer Know?
Washington, D. c.. Feb. THAT
had full knowledge of the bribery by
which it is charged his election was
procured, was asserted by Senator
Norris Brown of Nebraska in speech
to the senate today. This was a step
in advance of any that had been TAX
en- on the subject and if accepted
in or
sion. Mr.. Brown said that the rela-
tions between Lorimer and the minor
ity leader, Lee O'Neil Browne, is
such as to render it certain that Mr..
Lorimer has been positively advised
as to Brownies operations. He said
that the betrayal of the trust by L.
linois legislators was on wholesale
scale. The silent and iron hand be-
hind the scenes" said Mr.. Browne,
knowing all that was being done for
him by his agents and consenting to,
if not directing their every act, was
Mr.. Lorimer himself" He declared
that a wrong Judgment in this case
was "likely to mean and ought to
mean eventually an end of the SEN
ate."
