DISPATCHES TELL OF IT'S AC-
TIVITY.

MANNED BY CREW OF THE SEA
ADDER.
Wireless Dispatches From Samos
Alarm Washington, Which Sends
Out Warning Messages.
(By Associated Press)

Washington, Oct, 5.--Definite in
formation of the presence in the
South Pacific of two Geramn sea
raiders which have been preying up
on ships Of Allied nations, was given
in wireless dispatches received today
from Samoa.
The War Department Immediately
sent out warnings to Pacific coast
vessels in the South Pacific trade
to keep close to wireless stations
where they could be informed of the
doings of the raiders. The hunt fol
the raiders has been begun by fleet
of fast naval vessels at Guam and
Tahiti.
The raiders, according to the infor-
nation coming from Samoa, are
manned by the crew of the famous pi
rate, Sea Adder, the German raider
which was beached after sinking an
American ship some months.
At least four American-owned yes
sells are past due in Pacific ports,
and many British, French and Japa
nese vessels, it is believed, have been
sunk by the raider.
Warships of the Allied nations will
scour the ocean for the raiders, which

VALLEY MEN INCORPORATE FOR
PURPOSE.
MAKE COTTON FABRIC

When articles of Incorporation
of the Imperial Valley Egyptian
Cotton Company were filed with
the county clerk today, it became
y Known that a strong corporation
with large capital, which will go
into the business of raising Egyp-
tian cotton and, later, into manu-
featuring cotton fabrics from the
fibre, had been formed.
The Imperial Valley Egyptian Cot
ton Company is composed of the fol-
lowing men, who are directors: C. R.
lockwood, E. H. lockwood, Calexico;
B. G. Walker, Charles P. Walker, DR..
W. T. Heffernan, Ell Centre. The
capital stock of the concern is $780,
600. 1t will not be a stock selling
concern, but will be operated on the
close corporation plan.
The company has leased 5000 acres
of fine land in Lower California for
the purpose Of raising Egyptian fibre
next year. Several teams and large
body of laborers have already begun
the leveling of the land.
Egyptian Cotton High.
Growers of Egyptian cotton in Ari-
zona, and owners Of few acres in
this valley, will reap greater profit
on the raising of the extra fine fibre
than any other cotton growers in the
country. The price is now said to be
70 cents per pound, and going up
1t is. ip great demand, not only fol
the making of auto tires and fine cot.
ton fabrics. but for munitions OF
war.
In the articles of Incorporation the
manufacture of cotton fabrics is pro-
vlded for. Although the actual erec-
ton of cotton mill is far in the fu-
ture for the company, it is believed
that eventually the company will erect
on this side of the line a modern
factory for the handling of the pro-
ducts.
c. r. lockwood is now in Los An
geles, arranging for the pursuance of
the work of grading the immenes
tract of land which will be seeded next
year.
