Paris, JAM 31-Though Zeppelin raiders on Saturday
night reaped toll of 26 dead and 80 injured in their drive
against Paris they failed to do any damage in fresh
raid at 10 o'clock last night far as is known Author
tiles announced today that 10 ncendiary bombs had been
thrown in the second raid that six of these fell in an open
field in suburb while others landed in the vicinity of
factory but exploded harmlessly.
Air patrols attacked the RAIDERS but they scared out
to the northward and escaped in heavy mist The Ger
man airshps rode high that searchghts were unable
to pick them out in the fog only the hum of the engines
and the flare of the fire bombs told of their presence
The newspapers voiced the anger of the populace to-
day at these attacks after freedom of months from
such raids Moreover they demanded that the French
make reprsals for the killing and wounding of more
than 50 in the Saturday attack by radng large German
cities At the same time they renewed the warning that
Zeppens, accompanied by the Fokker machines may
SwOop down at any time Experts declared that the Sat
urday and Sunday night raids to fee OUT the de-
fenses of the city, preparatory to greater raids.
Though earlier reports placed the dead in Saturday
nights raid at a. official today said that
26 were killed and 81 wounded with property loss of

guished and were not again lighted until 90 minutes later

remains with the Legislature to act. It
will take legislative action and I ho
lievc that the recommendations Of our
commission will be given very thought

Presidents Speech HELPS
Weaken Stock Market

Copyrighted 1916 by the New York
Evening Post.)
New York, Jan. 3l.-There is no rea-
son to doubt that today's sharp break
in the stock market was primarily the
result of President Wilson S remarks
Saturday at Cleveland regarding the
dangers with which the United States
would be Immediately threatened by a
war. The president certainly said moth
ing but what a good many others in
and out of Wall Street have been saying
for the past six months, but it was the
fact that he chose this moment, and
said it with a seemingly ominous en-
phasis, that upset the market.
Prices declined at the opening from
a half point to a point on active issues,
with a subsequent further decline of a
point in the forenoon on heavy selling
IT was difficult to determine how much
of the weakness was due to bear
activity.

HAVE PLAN
FOR EVAOING THE LAW
Buy Lands For Their Children
Born In This Country, Have
Guardians For Them

Sacramento, Cal, Jan. 81. - That
japanese have dug up a scheme to
eircumvent the California alien land
act is shown in an opinion by Attorney
General Webb.
1t appears that Japanese who are
alien subjects of the emperor of Japan
have been purchasing real estate in the
name of their citizen children and
since the law prohibits them from hav-
ing any interest in real estate, are hav-
ing guardians named for their children.
OF such transactions Webb says:
eff it should appear that the alien
father furnished money to purchase
real property in the name of his citizen
children and that the transaction was
not in good faith, but so effected for
the purpose of defeating and circum-
venting the Alien Land act, the prop
erty so purchased would escheat to the
state and the fact that such property
is held by guardian other than the
natural father would not alter this
result.
alt must be borne in mind, however,
tnat citizen OF tne united states anu
of this state has the right to purchase,
enjoy and transfer real property with
in the state and this right cannot be
denied him by reason of the fact that
his parents are alien subjects of the
emperor of Japan. If purchase of
real property within this state is made
by a child of such subject who was
born within the state, his parents being
neither transients or employed by the
japanese embassy or government at
the time of the child's birth and such
purchase is made in good faith with the
child's own funds and not for the pur-
pose of circumventing the alien land
act, the title to such property rests in
the child"

Death List shrinks.

San Diego, Jan 31.-RepOrts from
workers in the path or the flood today
showed that early reports Of so persons
dead, were too high.
A party of searchers from the sher-
iff's office found japanese woman
huddled in the brush on the edge of the
valley with a dead baby in her arms.
The beautiful San Luis Rcy and San
Pasqual valleys, in the northern part
of the county, also are hard hit, al
though more definite information tenn
pered earlier reports, The loss of life
there is not known, although several
bodies have been recovered. Full re-
ports from the Fall Brook, Bonsall and
Pata districts had not been received at
noon. ON damage to the historic San
Diego and San Luis Rey missions was
sustained.
The dam at Escondido is safe.
The exact monetary loss to the coun-
ty improvements and residents will not
be known for some time, and the exact
number Of deaths cannot be determined
until the coroner reports. However,
earlier statements that more thnr
persons were drowned are undoubtedly
untrue.

Marching On Picking.

Petrograd, Jan. 3l.-Twenty thous-
and Mongolian rebels are marching to-
ward Peking, according to Mukden
dispatches today.
This is perhaps the most serious move
thus far reported in the Chinese revolu-
ton against the new monarchy. Re
ports have been current for weeks, in
dicating that the trouble, centering in
Yunnan province and thereabouts, has
been increasing gradually.
Recently dispatches indicated that
the cmperor's forces were having diff
ficulty in making progress against the
rebels.
This reported new move is the most
daring stroke yet undertaken by the
revolutionists, but whether it will meet
with any success depends upon the 10y
atty of Yuan Shi Kai's monarehial
troops and this point can only be CON
iectured.

Washington, Jan. 3l.-That the sub
marine Ks has shared the fate of the
F-4-sunk off Honolulu, with loss of

Wy department this afternoon
At one O'Clock no word of the miss
ing vessel had come further than a

with the remainder of the submarine
flotilla while 50 miles from Charleston.
Afterward, when the flotilla crept up
to Charleston harbor, the ks was miss
ing.
How many men were aboard the div
er is unknown, but officials inclined to
believe that all of her 2s crew were not
there, but that perhaps some aad gone
