UPHOLDS STATE LAW

tBY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONSJ
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16-The
right of the state to intervene in the
affairs of the quasi-public Institutions
having the custody of citizens funds
because of unsafe management was
decided by Superior Judge Seawen to.
Gay when he overruled a demurrer Of
the Continental Building and Loan as
sociation to Attorney General Webbs
petition for an order upon the con
Germ to show cause why the State
Building and Loan commission
shouldn't liquidate its affairs. He up-
held the constitutionality of the last
legislatures building and loan law.
The state scores tremendous vic
tory, because upon the constitutional
ty of the law depended whether the
directors of the moribund Continental
association could escape regulation
OF speculation with depositors' funds
IN an effort to retrieve losses. The
acts which the court upholds give
the state commissioner the right 10
assume charge of any institution
which in his judgment is doing an un-
safe business, hazardous to the deposi
tors funds.

DARROW CASE ARGUMENT

iIEY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONSl
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16-Before
night the fate OF DarrOw will be III
the hands of the jury. Judge Hutton
stated that District Attorney Freder-
icks would be given until o'clock to
conclude his final argument. The jury
will then be charged and locked up.
Fredericks addressed the jury un-
, emotiOnally and logically. He declared
his object was to prove "a chain Of
crime perpetrated by DarroW, without
using one word OF Franklins testi-
mony." He reviewed the evidence Of
all the witnesses. DarrOw and Rogers
frequently interrupted, challenging his
statements. On one occasion Judge
Hutton declared a recess of ten
minutes 10 permit the counsel to cool
off
+ Fredericks warmly defended Har-
rington, who was the object of Dar-
rows eXcoriation yesterday Referring
TO the disappearance from Los Ange-
les of George Diekleman, hotel clerk
who had identified the McNamaras as
stopping at his hotel before the eX-
I plosion and who was important to the
Mcnamara prosecution, FrederickS
said: Bert Hannerstrome, Darrow's
brother-in-law. took Diekleman to Chi
cago and our detective, George Home,
brought him back. See how they
worked on Diekleman. how seductive
they We're. You can't nit a man on
the head and tell him you want him
on your side. You must coax. They
did Oh. this high minded defendant
Fredericks sarcastically said: Money,
money | almost hate money since
came through the Mcnamara trial
could talk for hours on the Diekleman
affair and tell you something interest
ing every minute"
He promised that before the con
clusion tonight he will prove cOnclu-
sively that Darrow gave the money 10
Franklin TO bribe Lockwood.
LOS ANGELES. Aug l6.-Districj
Attorney F'redericks resumed the
states closing arguments against Oar
row today. He prefaced his oration,
saying: II is utter folly to believe
any persons other than the Mcnamara
attorneys, who had the handling of the
money, committed these briberies. No
one else would waste the time and
money by bribing jurors who might
be refused when they appeared III
court. | don't believe all the defense
witnesses who said Franklin told
them Darrow was innocent are per
jurers. That was the result of Frank
Inns attitude to protect the men who
game him the money. ! don't say
Franklin told DarrOW everything ne
did. barrow furnished the money
and Franklin the brains and in
genuity."
He then attacked the veracity pf
certain Of the defense witnesses. He
called the jurors attention to the fact
that While DarrOw was on the stand
he declared if he was guilty lie
Compte Davis also was guilty, saying:

AUTO RACE COMING VIA
| CENTER OF THE VALLEY

Now comes the word that the auto
mobile race between Los Angeles and
Phoenix, instead of following the
Southern Pacific railroad, will turn
south at Brawley, coming to Ell Cen
tro and from here so via Holtville
east to Yuma This is a far more
sensible route than that which has
been proposed heretofore.
1t does not vet appear by what pro
cess the road from Brawley west is
to be put into suitable shape, but it
is presumed the automobile enthusi-
asts of Los Angeles propose to raise
fund to complete it.
As for the road between Holtville
and Yuma, the Press learns from Dave
Williams that splendid results have
attended the work thus far done and
that early in September Holtville will
resume construction and will have the
road in good condition early in the
fall
The completion OF this road will
open direct route from the east
through the heart of the valley TO Ell
( Centro. and from here the travellers
can have their choice of two routes.
They can 90 via the projected route
from Brawley up the Coachella valley,
or via the splendid highway, already
III large part built. from here TO San
Diego.
It is learned that J. S. Mitchell OF
Los Angeles, who has been chief boost
er for the Brawley route, has signi-
fed his acceptance of the revised
scheme, and has promised to do ali
III his power TO bring about the pro
posed change in the route.

CONFERENCE IS HELD, BUT
IS WITHOUT RESULTS

George l.. Melton, secretary OF ln-
perial irrigation district, returned this
morning from Los Angeles, where he
attended the conference yesterday be-
tween Secretario Hernandez of Presi-
dent Madero's cabinet, Depositario
Andrade Of the Mexican company and
Receiver Holabird of the California
Development company.
The special object of Mr.. Melton III
attending the conference was to pro
pound TO the Mexican officials a ques
tion which has wide significance. The
question was whether there is any
thing in the laws Of Mexico which
would prevent a public corporation
(the irrigation DISTRICT from owning
and operating property in Mexico
The answer TO the question was in
formal and written reply will be
forwarded. but the intimation was
that there was nothing in the MeXi-
can laws which would interfere with
the ownership of canals in Mexico
The settlement of this question will
remove one of the big obstacles
to the acquisition of the irrigation sys-
tenn by the people of the valley.
The conference as regards the Mex
icaH company and the C. d. company
is not thought to have reached any so
luton. Mr.. Andrade and Colonel Hola-
bird had been asked by the secretario
de fOmentO to submit proposals for a
temporary compromise of the differ
ences between the Mexican and Amer
lean corporations, and Mr. Andrade

SUPERVISORS REFER TO
COUNTY HEALTH OFFICER

At the meeting of the' supervisors
at the court house yesterday afternoon
there was considerable argument over
the question of establishing fumigat
ing stations by the county at points
to be passed by persons coming to the
valley Brawley, which is the only
town in southern California which
has established such regulation,
wished the county to relieve it of the
espionage it is maintaining.
DR.. McCombs, county health officer,
did not consider this the best method
of combating the disease, but thought
the children on coming here from the
coast should be kept by themselves for
about thirty days; that any case of in
fantile paralysis which might be
brought to the county could be isolat
ed and the disease be prevented get
ting hold on the children of the
valley.
After listening to the discussion, the
supervisors referred the whole ques-
ton to County Health Officer Nc
Combs, saying that it was for just
such work that the department of
health was established, and the super
yisors have no desire to assume the
duties of the health officer
Advices being received from the
coast are to the effect that the phySi-
clans there believe they will be able
in sixty days to stamp out the dis
ease in that city, the feeling prevail
ing that The city is getting the mas
tcrv of the situation
The cases there are in a great de
gree confined TO the sections where
the least attention is given to sanitary
regulations, though there are a few
cases scattered through the better
residence districts.

rants 10 be issued by the depositario
and paid by the receiver.
Receiver Holabird rejected this pro
posal on the grounds that it would be
impossible for the two engineers to
agree on the work to be done; second,
that it would be impracticable for the
Mexican depositario TO be in charge OF
the gates, and, third. that the receiver
could not pay the warrants issued by
the depositario.
This ended the conference, and il
is thought the relationship between
the two corporations remains un-
changed.
Chief Engineer Chester Allison was
also in attendance at the conference
and returned TO the valley this morn
ing, but the Press was not able to get
into communication with him today,
in its efforts 10 get the company's ver
sion of the results of the conference.

DO NOT FEAR INVASION

San Diego Union: 1t is reported
that a filibuster expedition, under the
direction of General Orozco, is being
organized in Los Angeles to invade
lower California. Detachments are
also said to be in San Pedro and Long
Beach. 1t is said they have chartered
a high power launch for the dash.
A conference in Los Angeles, being
held today, may result in Minister
Rafael l.. Hernandez, Mexican minis
ter of the interior, demanding the res
ignation Of Governor Gordillo Escu-
derO, governor of Lower California,
whom people at Ensenada accuse OF
using his office improperly. Rumors
of the governors removal have beer
rife for some time, and it is the be
lief that it will have the effect of
staving off the impending revolution.
Those who know the manner in
which the territory is now protected
by troops do not fear an attack by
revolutionists, it is said, and feel that
there is no serious need for future
trouble in that portion of Mexico.
Political troubles, which they admit
have been hampering them, will, it is
said, be peacefully settled.
