The desert race from Los Angeles
to Phoenix is, in my belief, the hard
est automobile contest in the history
OF motor sport. This years event
was far greater strain on car and
crew than any Of the previous races.
The route is 100 miles longer. aud,
with the exception OF few miles, the
highway is rough, being either deep
In sand, full of rocks or a series OF
chucks and ruts.
The distance from Los Angeles to
Phoenix is SOL miles. Ny time was
twenty hours and twenty-three miu-
utes.
Fifteen cars were entered In this
contest In addition to the National.
The start was from the center OF the
business district OF LOS Angeles, and
for twenty miles from the city the
roadside was lined with motoring par
ties, and at many places bonares had
been built. The glare from these fires
did not benefit the drivers, and at nu-
merous points it was necessary to
slow down. The streets OF the small
towns were alive with people and
we were cheered all along the line

notified the contestants that the speed !
laws would be enforced out Of the

we kept down to ten miles an hour.
Turning into First street the. motor

me could go faster than the slow

the officer to 80 ahead, and he set
my pace for mile. From there on

the city limits had been passed.
For ten miles out of Los Angeles
the going was difficult. The people
would not keep OF the road They
flocked on the course to see us com

Make Motion to Enjoin the
Government from Giving
Evidence on Big Pool Prior
to July, 1905.
IMMUNITY REFUSED
BY FEDERAL COURT
Final Move of the Packers
Has Been Planned as a
Coup to Thwart Govern
ment in Famous Case.
(National News Association

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-When the trial
of the ten Chicago beef packers was
resumed today after the Christmas hol-
idays, John s. Miller, one of the attor-
neys for the millionaire beef barons,
lnterjected new phase to the much
complicated procedure. Mr.. Miller
made a formal motion to Judge Car
pcnter that the government be enjoin-
ed from introducing any evidence ten
ding to show the existence of pool
among the Chicago packers prior to
July l, 1905.
Mr.. Miller urged that any evidence
of such a pool that the government
might have, be given to Judge Carpen-
ter and not in the presence of the jul
ry. The famous Immunity bath" given
the packers by U. S. Judge Humphries
three years ago was urged as a reason
why evidence Of an existing pool pri-
or to July l, 1905, could not properly
get before the jury.
Governments Program.
1t had been the intention of the gov
ernment when the first witness was
called to, build up it's case against the
packers by showing the existence of
an old pooling agreement, between the
packing house interests. On this pre-
mise the government hopes to show
that the corporation of the National
Packing company took over the func.
tions of the old pool. Judge Humph
ries Immunity bath was administer.
cd on the ground that the packers OBJ
tanned immunity by giving testimony
before Secretary James Garfield in his
trust investigation. 1t was the conten.
tion of the defense that the three de-
PENDANTS not included in the "immuni
tv BATH" be permitted to make the
same showing of facts in support OF
their plea as that which gave their
associates immunity in 1905. The three
defendants involved in this plea were
francis Fowler.
Special plea was interposed in be
half of Fowler on the ground that he
had been called and had testified as a
witness before a federal grand jury
in the investigation of the packers in
1905.
Judge Carpenter denied all pleas OF
immunity and ordered acceptance in
behalf of the defense, noted in every
point of the record where such excep
tions might apply. The immunity bath
motion of the packers came entirely
unexpected and had been planned by
the beef barons as final coup to
thwart the government in it's attemp,
to prosecute the organizers of the beet
trust. Attorneys for the government
contested it bitterly.

COMPLAINS OF OD0R
At the Local Interurban
Station.

With c. K. Jeffries, general super
intendent of the Terre Haute, Indiana

complaint has been lodged by prose-
cutting attorney Charles Ladd against
the foul odors which are prevalent in
the South Eighth Street Interurban
Station. The company has been mott

ton will be prosecuted and the sta
ton condemned and locked up.
A relative of the prosecutor, who
was made ill by the odor, and other
complaints which have come to him
lately caused him to investigate the
situation. He found that nothing had
been exaggerated in the information
given him. The odor, which includes
the smell of disinfectants, is very OBJ
noxious.
City officials a few weeks ago took
up the case with the interurban au-
thorities and immediate remedy was
promised. However, nothing to per-
manently relieve the condition was
ever done.

BIG MASSACRE BY
BRUTAL RUSSIANS
Streets of a Persian City
Running Blood Citi-
zens Are Fleeing.
(National News Associatfon)

NNdIAOHdA ASS"S <AS9oSAoASio"1
TEHERAN, Persia, Dec. 26.-After
72-hour carnival of slaughter in
Resht, capital of the Persian province
of Chilan, in which approximately L.
500 Persian men, women and chill
dren were slain by Russian Cossacks,
the soldiers continued their bloody
work today by sending detachments OF
troops to shoot down the refugees
who we're fleeing from the city.
Inside Resht the orgy of blood still
went on also. Details of the mass
acre were received here today by a
courier who travelled the $50 miles of
country between Resht and the capi-
tai by horseback. The messenger
brought plea for aid from the COVER
nor of Ghilan. He declared that Rus
slams were killing defenseless men
and women and children in Anzilt,
Masaula and Ardabil as we'll as Resht.
The Russians started the slaughter
by shooting down dozen Persians
who had assembled in front of pro-
clamation upon public building.
Inflamed by the sight of blood, the
savage Cocsacks swept through the
streets, shooting at every person in
sight. Foot soldiers invaded the
dwellings and stores of peaceful citi-
zens driving them into the streets in
terror where they fell victoms to the
insane rage of the Cossacks.
Little children were Drained before
the eyes of their horror stricken
parents. Aged men and women were
torn limb from limb while their rela-
tives and friends begged piteously for
mercy.
The Russians only laughed at the
deputies of citizens who appeared be-
fore the governor to save their wo-
men from the barbities which the Rus
SLAMS were inflicting with fiendish
cruelty. They were counseled, how
evcer to take no aggressive part
against the invaders and to do nothing
that would enrage still further the
Russian troops.
Persian Cossacks were idle in their
barracks while the streets ran red
with the blood of their fellow Persians.
In the most thickly populated district
of the city the cutters were piled high
with corpses, many of them hacked to
bits and about half of them headless.
