San Franeisoo's Chief of Police Closes America's GreateIYt
 Resort of Vice.

San Francisco. Sept. 30.--The chief of police has issued orders to the officers in charge of the Barbcry Coast section that that worldwide resort of vice will be closed up tight to stay closed af- ter September 3Oth.
 The order has created con- stcrnatiOn among the thousands of men and women who are hab- itucs of the resorts. There has been talk for the past year of putting the lid on Barhrry Coast :. but the prnprirtoJS believed that they would be permitted to con- tinue until after the coming fair.
 The police are authority for the statement that more than three thousand persons who have made their living on the Barbery Coast will be compelled to leave the city. The section of the city occupied by the Coast before the earthquake is now one of the Drinciple business sections of the city, and it's present location is too near the heart of the busi- ness district.

COMING WITH THE CANAL

Los ANGELES, Sept. 4.-That more
than 100000 residents Of Europe will

was the declaration yesterday Of &. NJ.
Otis, vice consul Of Norway. on the
receipt of official information relative
to the purchase Of steamship tickets
for Los Angeles and California 10 he

had received the information that
.6 900 tickets have been purchase
IN Berlin alone for California points
These tickets he announced are one
way tickets and are good only during

tltive Of the Norwegian government.
may have ample time TO consider plans
for caring for citizens Of Norway who
will come with the flood of mmigrJ-
lion through He canal
According 10 the Message received
relative to the sale of California tick
els i'll Berlin. 90 per cent of The pu'-
chasers of the tickets are German far
mers who will come prepared to pur-
chase land and take up intensive farm
ing.
With this number as an estimate Mr.
Otis predicted that within two years
after the opening Of the canal every
available acre Of tilIabIe land that 1,
held at low price in Southern Cali
fOrnia, Nevada, New Mexico and Ari-
Zona Will have passed into the hands
Of the small farmer.
I'VE have 4 problem now before -
hat is much larger than we expected" q"
said Mr.. Otis, 'and that is that of i'm
migration. | will begin at once on q
plan for meeting the desires of those
of Norway who come here to make
their homes.
Immigration OH such basis as this
message unfolds means that there will
be no lands lying idle in the southwest
Every acre that will produce will be
made to produce and Los Angeles mar
kets will double TO care for the buSi-
ness"

EVERYTHING REMAINS QUIET

there are about as quiet as they could

on the delta declare they hear nothing
Of the war except when they cross to
This side.
The little band Of striking Mexicans
on the delta are still lying in conceal
ment, it is supposed. at some unknown
point, and while it is possible that the
force will gain recruits and may even
tually develop into real army there
Is nothing yet in sight to justify ap-
