sic were named defendants ina suit
nied Yesterday by Sarah E. Matlock,
whereby certain tax Sales involving val

minating in deeds to the defendants, are
sought to be set aside on the ground

not comply with the law, in that he was
allowed to make settlement after the ex-

That the collector of taxes made no re-
port OF the tax sale Of 1903 in the office

neously described the owner Of the prop
erty.
The plaintiff AYERS that instead Of the
larger amount. approximating $500.

WILSON DENIES STORY
OF HUERTA'S DEFIANCE
Is Recognized Officially, Says Ambas-
sador, but Important Negotia-
lions Are Held LIN.

Mexico City, May 9.-Amba ssador Will
son said today there was no truth in the
report that he will not be recognized on
cially by President Huerta. The latter's
action, he says, simply means that i'm
portant matters now pending between the
two countries will not be concluded until
the Mexican government is recognized.
The ambassador does not think serious
complications will result. but he has not,
so far. heard from Washington regard
ing the matter.

That Internal Machine Sent
Carnegie Was Juicy Cheese

NEW YORK, July 22.-The mystery
of the bomb" sent to Andrew Car
negie yesterday in care Of the secretary
of the Carnegie corporation was solved
today. 1t was juicy cheese inclosed
in smellproof case of zinc-a Scotch

After deliberating nearly all day how
to determine the contents of the
bomb" without causing an explosion.
officials of the bureau of combustibles
took the internal machine" to a va
cant lot. There, from a safe distance,
while an immense crowd waited with
their fingers in their ears expecting
an awful report, an official leveled a
rifle at the bomb and perforated it
with bullets. A thick yellow substance
oozed out.
Soon pungent. self-explanatory
odor became perceptible and even the
laymen present were able to recognize
the true nature Of the bomb

COALINGA. July 22.-Rain beginning
tonight without letup filed the streets
of Coalinga, both in the residence and
business sections, curb to curb. In many
cases 1t was impossible for people to
leave their homes without wading IN
water above their knees.
The rain came from the west. and
around Section Six and the American
Petroleum holdings the torrents filed
the sump holes in which the oil is
stored. The oil overfiowed and the
streams came through every west side
street. which were covered with a scum
Of oil.
1t is impossible to estimate the dam
age done by the oil, as it covers every
lawn in the western section of the city
and many other parts. The lawns will
be ruined.
In the downtown sections on the
paved streets the streams are rushing
in torrents and the stores that are
level with the property line are COW

BTNGHA AMTON n Y, July "a
Fifty persons were killed. according to
late kilograms. and many injured, a
dozen of them mortally. in a fire which
swept the four story factory building
this afternoon. The victims chiefly
were women and girls.
At midnight 26 bodies had been re-
covered.
In the city hospital and in private
Institutions are so injured.
Some two score persons are known
to have escaped as by a miracle from
the building, which burst into flame
like a tinderbox and became roaring
furnace almost Immediately after the
first alarm was sounded.
About 125 persons were in the fac
tory when the fire broke out.
Those unaccounted for. or most of
them. are believed still to be in the
red hot ruins of the structure
SEARCHLTGHTS ON RUINS
Around the scene of the fire district,
the greatest the city ever has known,
thousands watched the workers in the
glare of three big searchlights, many
IN the great throng being restrained
only by the closely drawn police from
rushing into the ruins to seek the
bodies of rela tives or friends.
Water in many streams is being
poured into the fiery pit that few
hours ago was the cellar of the burned
establishment AS the ruins were
cooled slightly from time to time in
Q spot upon which the streams were
centered. men went forward to dig as
long as human endurance would allow
them to work
Occasionally a body was found and
taken quickly away
This work will so on all night and
perhaps all day tomorrow before the
glowing mass gives up its last dead.
TWO DAYS REQUIRED
IT will take at least two days, the
authorities believe, before the cellar
can be cleared and the whole truth
be known.
The big outstanding fact of the
catastrophe is its suddenness. In this
ii bears a strong resemblance to the
Triangle Waist company disaster in
New York, where 147 lives were lost
when the infammable material and the
waists littering the floors blazed up
with incredible rapidity and set the
imprisoned workers jumping from the
windows to their death.
The parallel here fails only in the
height and construction of the building
and in the length of dead and injured
list.
Another resemblance to the New York
disaster is that the fire is believed to
have been started by the throwing Of
a cigarette butt or a match.
LITTLE CHANCE FOR ESCAPE
In the tragedy of this afternoon the
killing burst of flame followed quickly
upon the heels of the alarm. There
was small opportunity for any one tc
use the ordinary or even the emer-
gency means of escape. Fire drills hac
been carried o.s regularly, so frequently
in fact, that the employees had found
them monotonous
The building was equipped with fir
escapes and an automatic alarm sys
tenn.
