PILES
Up A HEAVY
DEFICIT
Sweden Will Have to Pay
$243,OOO as the Expense
For Big Athletic Meet.
THINKS INVESTMENT
rs WORTH THE PRICE

Stockholm, Sweden, Oct 5.-Finan-
clally the olympic games were a great
failure, not less than Sz43, 600 having
been lost by the organizers according
to the final auditing of the accounts. =
From the standpoint of good sport
the games were acknowledged to have
peeH wen conducted. Good order and
system were characteristic of the pro-
gram from day to day. But this good
management meant heavy cost and the
promoters of the affair find themselves
facing this great deficit This amount
does not include the cost of the
stadium.
The whole income from the stadium
including season tickets, was slightly
more than S21O,000. On the day of the
Marathon $22,7SS was taken in at the
gates and adding to this the season
tickets for that day the income was
S34,126, which is the largest sum ever
taken in Sweden for a public affair.
Sweden is not disheartened by the
deficit as it was expected from the
start and the country feels well re-
paid IN having shown the world the
hlgh degree of her craftsmanship and
management She was successful in
both Of these endeavors and it is con-
eminent, recognizing these facts, will
not hesitate to place at the disposal of
the committee the funds necessary to
pay all of its debts.

Jnck Roses Confession.
The man whose testimony Becker
has most to fear is Jack Rose. the
gambler, who, in a written confession
that will always remain a valuable
document for psychologists to ponder
he affirms that he acted as Becker's
fiscal agent or collector, while Becker
was acting as commander of that flying
squadron of the police known as the
vice" squad. Rose will give a list of
those from whom he collected tribute
for Becker. Bridget Weber, accord
ing to his own confession, is one of
these.
But the most damaging portion of
Roses testimony will be that which re-

New York, Oct 5.-New Workers
this week viewed for the first time
a big rubber plantation and rubber
factories fIoUrishing in the heart Of
the city, and thousands of curious
persons have watched the milking"
of the trees as the process by which
the juice from which the rubber is
manufactured is called. The spectacle,
however, is not to be permanent in
dustry here, but IS the exhibition OF
the international rubber and allied
trades supported by more than 20
rubber producing countries of the
world. The fact that this country
uses more than one half of the worlds
production of new rubber and that
the value of the output of the finished
products equals the value of the steel
production are facts realized by very
few persons. In the exhibits rubber
plants brought from all over the
world can be seen growing. 1t eX-
shown how the milk, or 1atex. is ex-
tracted. This is usually done by max
ing a small incisiOn in the bark of
the tree and the milk runs out. Then
the milk is coagulated. There are
several processes for this churning,
and DR.. Pinto from Brazil will make
a biscuit, as il is called or a small
fiat mat of crude rubber in a few
minutes. Sometimes the rubber is
rolled into a ball Sometimes it is
spread out in long, flat sheets, and
then there are all sorts of varieties
of rubber, which vary in value from
80 cents to $3.50 a pound. The ex-
hibits from Ceylon, Malay and the far
east show the conditions under which
rubber is grown and gathered
Fire Prevention Day.
Next week this city is to celebrate
for the first time a day officially set
aside by governor Dix to be known as
fire prevention day, and it is hoped
that the beneficial results will be so
apparent as to make its observance a
national feature eventually. The pur-
pose Of the day as expressed by the
governor in his appeal to the people
will be a general cleaning up and re-
moval of all rubbish, trash and waste
and a setting of their heating ap-

SAN DIEGO WANTS TO
BE PART OF ARIZONA

Phoenix. Ariz.. Oct 5.-The PROPOSE
ton to annex Imperial and san Diego
counties. the southermost counties of
California, to Arizona, was given fresh
impetus this week by the arrival in
Phoenix of p. H Vondenberg. one of
the leading spirits of Coronado, a
suburb of San Diego.
Mr.. VOndenberg is firm believer in
annexation. and says he believes that
were the matter left to a vote of the
people of the two counties in question
the proposition would carry by an over
whelming majority.
And, We are not philanthropists,
purely in this attitude" he said. While
we believe the acquisition of a sea-
port and the acquisition of so much
rich farming and mineral lands, there
by adding to the taxable value of the
state would be to AriZOna's ADVANTAGE

be greatly benefited. 1t would give

II IS the richest part of Mexico, both

difficulties in the way. If the counties

New Dress Goods Loud and Costly,
The feminine visitor to New York
in search of a winter wardrobe is
likely to find more barbaric colors,
and Incidentally higher prices, this
year than ever. One noted authority
on these matters is of the opinion that
New York has gone clothes mad,
pointing out that never before have
there been such gorgeous materials,
such richness of fabric or brilliancy
of colors nor such marked activity on
the part of feminine shoppers. Early
