CAM|NETT| FOUND
GUILTY OF CHARGE
He and Diggs Will Each be
Sentenced for Escapades
on September 10.
National News Association

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Sept g.
Farley Drew Caminetti, son of the
commissioner general of immigration
of the United States, was found guilty
late yesterday on one count of the in
dictment charging him with violation
Of the Mann white slave act. The find
ing was that Caminetti was guilty Of
transporting Lola Norris to Reno for
immoral purposes.
The jury was out three hours and
took eight ballots. From the first the
vote stood 10 to for conviction and
finally the two recalcitrants agreed to
compromise by finding a verdict of
guilty on one of the four counts charg-
ed
Bail in the sum of $4,000 was fur
nished by Frank Freeman of Willows,
Cal, and G. Bacigalupi, of San Fran
cisco, and was ready to be filed with
The United States marshal when the
verdict was announced.
Sentence will be pronounced We'd
nesday, Sept. 10, the day set for sen
.encing Maury |. Diggs, jointly indict-
ed with Caminetti and convicted on
four counts.
Exceptions to the charge of Judge
VanFlett as a whole and in part were
taken by counsel and a petition for an
appeal will be filed as was announced
in the case of Diggs.
Nudges Brother JokingIy.
Caminetti took the verdict lightly,
smiling a forced smile and nudging his
brother jocularly. First he lifted his
little daughter Naomi, who was play
ing at his feet, and placed her care
fully in her mothers lap. Then he
shook hands with his lawyers and with
Digs, who has been sitting nearby.
His mother and wife showed no emo
ton. They sat with lowered heads gaL-
ing into their laps.
Caminetti and Maury |. Dggs, for
mer state architect of California, were
jointly indicted on six counts and
Diggs was found guilty on four of
on two counts.
Diggs, however, has still third in
dictment hanging over him. With Ca
leb B. Harris of Sacramento, his for
mer attorney, he is accused of subor-
nation of perjury. Nellie Barton,
friend of Marsha Warrington, testified
during the Diggs' trial that Harris and
Diggs had coached her in testimony
which she in turn was to drill into
Marsha Warrington for use on behalf
of Diggs. The perjury trial will be call
ed before Judge VanFlett on Wednes-
day, the day of the sentences.

tour. At Carney's Ranch. oil and gaso-
line had to be hauled seven miles from
the railroad by wagon, where it was
a gallon. II took this wagon seveL
days to make the round trip.
The original route was from Ely,
Nevada, to Austin, and then to Reno,
but owing to reports that the Falcon
Sink territory was impossible, the
route was changed from Ely to Tona-
pah and Goldfield, then TO Rishop,
which is only 237 miles from Los
Angeles, the tour terminal. But the
Pilot co. crew decided to make the
original tour to Reno. After leaving
Carson City at 1880 o'clock in the
morning, it arrived at Reno at 10: As
o'clock the same morning, a distance
of thirty miles, over the supposedly
impossible road
Use Railroad Bridge.
big Brute" left Reno at l o'clock
for Lake Tahoe going around it's up
per end but six miles out of Reno the
party discovered three bridge wash
outs and it was necessary to take to
the railroad grade which was parallel
to the bridge road or return to Reno.
The Pilot crew found by taking to
the railroad grade and driving one and
half miles over it. they could pass
the places where the bridges were
washed out. The Pilot crew made the
Tavern ahead of the other cars which
ferried across the lake.
During the entire trip the crew of
the pilot Co. was out of the car only
once to make an adjustment and that
happened in going over Santa Sussana
Pass, about 40 miles from Los Angeles,
when the starting crank was slightly
bent by striking a large boulder. This
pass was so thickly covered with boul-
ders and so rough that the big road
race originally routed from Los Ange-
les over this pass was abandoned.
The trip was made in twenty-four
running days. Three hundred and
eighty-fve gallons of gasoline were
used.
Only One Puncture.
I'VE went into San Francisco on the
same air we left Richmond in the
front tires" said Mr.. Smith, land had
only one puncture in the rear tires,
caused by picking up horseshoe nail
in a deep bed of said. Five tire chang
es were necessary on rear wheels caus-
ed by the tubes being torn on the
mountain passes.
"On the way out the Pilot So estab-
lished agencies at Denver, Reno, San
Francisco, Los Angeles, Santa Anna,
and Salt Lake City. The car which
made the trip to the coast was turned
over to the San Francisco dealer who
decided to use it without repainting,
as a demonstration. The object of the
tour was to show that Indiana-made
cars could go anywhere, and for the
advertisement and trade-selling fea-
ture as well.
The pilot so" driven in the tour is
identical in construction. with the cars
delivered all season, excepting that it
had a large emergency gasoline tank
built for the trip. The automatic
lamps attracted more attention than
any other feature on the tour One
lamp turns with the steering gearing,
while the other remains stationary.
