MILLION DAMAGE
 BY FOREST FIRES :
 IN NO. CALIFORNIA


 San Francisco, Sept. 24-Forest fires which were burning, today, in various sections of northern. Califor- mia. have already caused losses estI- mated at considerably more than $1,- 0oO,oOo.
 Tn Napa County, a territory IS miles long and five miles wide has been laid waste and, early today, 500 men were at work trying to- prevent the spreading of the flames. The great est damage has been done to Cape1I, Toss and Gordon Canons, where ranch houses, orchards and grain fields have been in the path of the fire.
 A desperate fight is being made to save Napa, Soda Springs and Wilson's 8 Inn, both of which were still in dan ger at daybreak.
 While Horse Valley. 10 miles east of. Napa still is threatened, state troops are centering large forces of fire fighters at that point. In Capell and Floss valleys, IT houses have been destroyed. In Santa Cruz County, the fire is roaring through thick under brush and big redwoods towards San to Clara. County.

LOSE $5O,OOO
 DURING YEAR
New Haven Road Claims Theft Of Journals Amounts To
 That Huge Figure.

New Haven. Sept. 24-It is claimed that the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad loses $5O,OOO year through stolen brass journals, for the theft of which a number of junk deal CTS were recently arrested here by the detectives and special railroad police. It was because of this enormous year ly loss that such sweeping action was immediately taken when a clue was secured to, the persons suspected of taking the journals here. Each one of the journals costs $4.5o apiece. The loss of $5O,00O by stolen and missing journals is, of course, not all due to thefts here, but the yearly loss in New Haven alone has been over $7,00O, it is alleged.
 These figures are advanced in con nection with the arrests of nine junk dealers at present held in custody, who are charged with conspiracy to rob the road of these journals. Five of the junk dealers are held on bench warrants issued by Judge Edwin B. Gager of the superior court. The ern- p1oyment of Lawyer Howard c. Webb by the railroad as special counsel toI prosecute these cases shows the. in tention of the road to put definite stop, if possible, to these enormous losses.
 The cases of the nine junk dealers and the two men charged with com mitting the actual thefts, who, it is a1- legged, took the journals and sold them to the junk dealers, will probably be tried at the October term of the su- perior court.

CASE OF PIPE
 LINES IN U. s.
 SUPREME COURT

Washington, Sept. 24-The federal government, today, began it's fight in the United States supreme court to establish the constitutiona1ity of the provision of the interstate commerce act making pipe lines common car riers. In his first brief as solicitor general of the United States, John w. Davis vigorously assaf1s the prelimi- nary injunction issued by the com merce commission on the ground of unconstitutionality, against the order of the interstate commerce conrnis- sion directing pipe lines to file rate tariffs as common carriers.
 Control of pipe lines by the large interests with power to compel small producers to sell their oil or wells to pipeline owners at the 1atter's price is the source of a monopoly at which Congress aimed to strike by opening the pipe lines to the reasonable and equitable use of all, contends the so1i- citor general.
 t'The due process clause of the constitution is not violated, he de- c1ares, because it does not prevent nor does such legislation violate the constitutional prohibition against taking property for public use with out compensation because the users of the pipe lines as common carriers must pay a reasonable rate.
 s'1t is undisputably clear" he con tinues, "that the evil aimed at by Con- gress in making pipe lines comm on carriers was the monopoly of the oil business by the Standard Oil Conn pany, monopoly largely, if not chief ly. due to the ownership or control by that corporation of 90 per cent. of the pipe lines.''
 ''Tt is idle to suggest argues MT. Davis, that individual well owners or refiners ought to build pipe lines of their own. Every farmer might equally as well construct a railroad and every cottage have it's private | gas pIant.''
 It is largely the use of the potent instrument of transportation, he says, l that has built up these enormous capi- 
 .'The evidence in the Standard oil case proves 1t. Congress has struck | down the monopoly full grown. It now seeks to destroy the source from ] which 1t sprang."
 Pipe lines against which the pro ceedings are directed are the Stand | ard Oil Company, Standard Oil Com l pany of Louisiana, The Ohio Oil Com | pany, The Prairie Oil & Gas Com | pany, the Uncle Sam Company and Robert D. Benson
