radical notifications prescrYi by
Attorney General WickershaIn as a
condition precedent TO the approval
II the plan by the Department OF Jus
tice. il is believed that he will take
the initiative in the appeal TO the Su-
preme Court. j. G. McReynolds. the
special Assistant Attorney General
who prepared the Governments case

ecuted Il through the Supreme Court.
could not be induced last night to
say what the probable attitude OF the
Government would be. 1t is known.
however, that from its inception Mr..
McReynolds has been earnestly OPP
posed TO the plan.
In his opinion, Judge Noyes asserts
that the objection of Attorney General
Wickersham was followed by modifica-
tons of the plan. "some of it's most
drastic provisions being inserted in or
der To meet or avoid his criticisms.
He says also that the provision should
be made in carrying out the plan for
keeping Intact the books and records
Of the American Tobacco Company, it's
present constituents and branches, so
that they Will be available and subject
TO examination 10 the same extent as
at present in suits for accounting and
other existing litigations.
Opinions of Judges.
Judge Lacombe, whose opinion out
lined the decision OF the court, declares
grant Attorney General Wickersham's
request that there should be reserved
TO the government the right at any
time within five years to apply to the
court for other and further relief upon
a showing that, as a matter of fact, the
,plan has not resulted in creating a new
Nondition which shall be honestly in
harmony with and not repugnant to
the law.
Nudge Noyes does not take issue with
Judge Lacombe on any essential point.
He Nays. in part:
be question was as to the relief to
be afforded. A decree forbidding stock
h0ldefs would have been inadequate,
because the combination largely was
based Npon property ownership. Orig
inal conditions could not be restored.
ImmediAte extreme measures would
have inflicted irreparable injury upon
innocent Interests"
In his assent, Judge Coke says:
II approve of the proposed plan,
not because think 1t perfect, but be-
cause 1t is the best plan .obtainabie.
Perfection is impossible. The con6i-
ton existing before the commission
was formed cannot be restored. 1t
has gone beyond the hope of recall"
Judge Ward, the fourth member of
the court, who attended some of the
conferences and sat with his associates
at the open hearing, filed no opinion,
and did not even concur in the opin-
ions of the other three judges. 1t is
presumed that he Will make known his
opinion later.

NJ 'NAMARA CASE GOES
OVER UNTIL TOMORROW

[BY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONS
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12.-There was
no session of court in the Mcnamara case
today, both sides examining the records
of veniremen, preparing for resumption
tomorrow. They realize that Judge Bord-
wells ruling and his attitude toward la
Dor unions can be inquired into and opens
the widest issue, making certain pro-
longing of the trial indefinitely Eleven
prospective jurors are locked up 1t is
not expected any of them will remain

With one tailsman indisposed as a re-
suit of being confined In the big, bare
'barn like room where the smell of fresh

mistrial in the case of James B. McNa-

would have to be raised would consider

SUFFRAGE MAY YET WIN

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12.-Advocates
of woman suffrage, who today were con-
fident the State amendment giving them

it was discovered that a mistake of 1000
votes had been made in sending in the

DOUBLE CAPACITY
FOR WATER BASINS
City Trustees Take Steps To-
wards Solving Local
Difficulties
Advertisement Started Today for Bids
for Construction of Reservoirs That
viii Give One Million More
Gallons of Settled Water

The most important action taken by
the El Centre city trustees for many
weeks was that at last nights session,
when the board voted to advertise at once
Ting basins for the city water system
that will double the capacity for settling
water. This advertisement appears in
today's Press.
1t is proposed to construct three basins
thirty-five feet west of the present Sc
ries of reservoirs, and to be connecte
with them by pipes. The new basins
will have the same capacity as the five
now in use, thus giving opportunitya.to
at one time. 1t is believed this will at
least temporarily give the relief desired
in the local water situation.
City Engineer Pearson believes that
eventually it will be necessary to con-
struct separate irrigating system for
use on the street trees and city lots,
thus leaving the settling basins free to
supply water for house use.
The suggestion made some time ago
by Engineer Perry meets with favor. This
is to construct a large tank at an ele-
vation of probably twenty-five feet, and
pump water directly into this from tn,
Date canal without settling. This could
be carried to the lot owners for irrigat-
ing purposes in wooden fumes or pipes

The entrance of the president into Cal
ifornia will be an experience similar to
that when the tour began and Taft met
the defeat of his Canadian reciprocity
project. He will come into the State
just as the people by an overwhelming
verdict have approved of the recall, in
Guiding that of judges, the vote being in
direct opposition to the views of the
president and thus serving to illustrate
forcefully how little hold the chief execu-
how completely out of sympathy they are
with his views.

tThe above report indicated that suf-
frage lacks but 7S4 votes of winning,
and the Press believes that number will
yet be found, for there are number of
interior precincts yet to be heard from,
despite the report from San Francisco.
For instance, but nine of the eighteen
precincts of this county have yet been
reported, and the remaining nine will in
all probability reduce the majority
against suffrage by 200, while other sec
tons of the State probably have reserve
yet to report.-Ed. Press.l
