REPORT OF A
'C0NfIRMAT'N
OF RICHARDS
N AR RA 7 I'VE.
Two Engineers, Visiting Ba-
hia de Angeles, Nine Days
Earlier, Say They Saw
The Two COrpses On The
Sand.

It is reported that there came from
the south Friday night, en- route to
San Francisco, two men, named
respectively J. Van Gracht and H: R.
Crane, who related while here yester-
day, that they had visited the Bahia
de Los Angeles, on the west shore of
the Gulf of California, and they cor
roborated the story told here by Joe
Allen Richards published in Nogales
newspapers several days ago, of the
two dead men he saw at that place
ON September Fl.
AS related by Van de Gracht and
Crane, they landed at Bahia Los An
geles on September 18th, en- route in
to the interior to do some surveying,
they being engineers. Looking about
at the landing they found the bodies
of two men as described by Richards;
but they lay on the surface. Van de
Gracht and Crane had not heard of
the lost aviators, and did not connect
the corpses with that circumstance.
They made no examination of the re-
mains. AS soon as they could do SO
they departed for the place they were
to do their work; and when they had
completed it they travelled by land to
Santa Rosalia, thence across the gull
to Guaymas, and then northward re-
turning to San Francisco. At Quay
mas they heard of the lost aviators
and not. until then did they realize
whose were the remains they saw
After they had gone the corpses were
buried by someone-probably some Of

PRESIDEN OF
MEXICO IS FOR
PEACE and
P R O G R { S S.
Gave New york Times In
terview Wherein Great
Desirablity Of Peaceful
Relations With United
States Is Emphasized.

CITY OF MEXICO, Oct. A. The
press of the federal capital and
metropolis of Mexico. present today
a statement that President Carranza
declared to correspondent of the
New York Times that "Mexico wishes
more firm and friendly relations with
the United States, but asks that the
rights of Mexico be respected always:
he desires peace and opportunity for
development of the riches and resour-
ces of the country, and that no efforts
shall be spared to compass that pur-
pose; while everything compatible
with the honor of the Mexican people
will be done to preserve peace and
avert war; but if war is declared Mex
leo will stand to the last.
"The best proof that Mexico offers
to guarantee life and property of
foreigners is the fact that its govern
ment is ready to grant indemnity
whenever a proved case is presented; /;
except where Americans and other
foreigners insist upon travelling in re-
gions where the government is not in
control.
"War with the United States would
signify great loss of life, maintenance
of large armies at great expense, and
loss to America of friendship of all
Latin American nations"
Commenting upon the League of
Nations President Carranza averred
that "the theory and hope are admir-
able, but impossible of realization.
The only way that powerful nations
can respect the rights of weak ones
IS to treat them as equals. The day |
will come when Mexico will be one of |
he greatest countries on Earth. Such |
S my ideal. And my sole wish is to
prepare for the future of Mexico by
of her people"

AN INTERESTING
CASE CLOSELY
CONTESTED
Esperanza Leon Convicted
Of Taking $4,000 from a
Child She Had Induced To
Rob a Trunk in Her Own
Home.

Yesterday afternoon the Superior
Court was engaged in trial of the
case of State of Arizona VS.. Es-
peranze Leon, involving alleged alb
straction of $4,000 from a trunk in the
home of Mrs. Valenzuela, who resides
on Elm Street, where she owns con-
siderable property. 1t was closely
contested and very interesting. Coun-
ty Attorney Leslie Hardy represent
ed the state. Frank J. Barry and
Fred Noon appeared for defendant.
AS stated in these columns at time
of the arrest of accused the charge
was that the money was in a trunk
in the Valenzuela home, and in alb
sence of the owner the Leon woman
induced little girl in the house to
take the money from the trunk and
give it to her. When Mrs. Valen-
zuela returned home and missed the
she taxed the little girl with
having taken it, which she admitted;
but stated she had given it to ac-
cused.
In the trial yesterday the testimony
was as stated, the little girl insisting
that she took the money and gave it
to the accused at the solicitation of
the latter; which story the accused
denied most positively.
The jury returned a verdict of
guilty. Defendants counsel, Frank
J. Barry and S. F. Noon, made mo-
ton that the judgment be set aside,
as not in accordance with the facts.
Argument is the be on that motion
at later date.
Defendants counsel interposed also
a motion for reduction of bail, which
had been placed at 81 900 in the lower
court. The motion was granted, with
bail fixed at $1,000

BREAKERS IS STONED
AND TURNED BACK.
ARMORED CAR HAS AN EXCURSION THROUGH
A HOWLING MOB OF IRATE STRIKERS AND
SYMPATHIZERS WHO OPPOSE ALL MOVE
MENT.
Omitted Press Service)

OAKLAND, Calf, Oct. A.
One man was shot, and rocks
were thrown at a street car man
ned by strike breakers when it ar
rived at Twelfth and Broadway
this afternoon.
The car attacked was the first
one to leave the car barns since
the strike. of street car men be-
gan, on the first of October.
The small force of policemen
guarding the car was brushed
away from the car by hundreds
of strikers and those sympathiZ-
ing with them. Police reserves
were called, and the car started
back down town.
The streets were a seething
mass of strikers and strike
smypathizers. The crowds were
larger even than those yesterday,
very demOnstrative and decidedly
vicious. Strikers and hundreds
of others shouted and jeered at
the strike breakers, and were very
threatening in demeanor toward
them. But little would have been
necessary to have precipitated a
great riot with terrible loss of
life.
The car was armOred, at it was
manifest that it had started with
an intention of forcing its way
through to Berkeley, which is the
terminus of the line.
The car made a run of several
blocks, and became practically the
center of a moving riot of strik-
ers and their friends, who tried
in every way to hamper its pro-
gress. Finally big steam roller
was placed across the track, and
it held up movement for a half
hour or more, when it was remOv-
ed by the police, who made
score or more Of arrests.

Wartorn Industry Gives Promise Of
Great Development In the
Years to Come.

The output Of peat In the United
States last year far exceeded that Of
any preceding year and the general
Increase. which was stimulated by the
war. was shared by practically all
branches of the industry. Though ex-
tenslvely used as fuel in Europe and
widely known In the United States as
potential source Of heat and power,
peat has been unable to compete with
coal and many peat operators have d..
rected their attention to the utilization
of peat in agriculture with gratifying
results.
Peat fertilizer was first marketed in
commercial quantities In 1908. and
s.ock-fo,d peat in 1912, and though
there is still some prejudice against its
use the agricultural branch of the In
dustry has been successful and the
quantity Of fertilizer and stock-food
peat annually produced is increasing.
Large quantities Of these products
were made last year, hut the most
striking development was the produc-
ton of more peat in the New England
States than has been manufactured in
the entire United States in all proceed.
ing years. Almost equally striking
was the widespread interest manifest
ed in peat resources which had been
generally regarded as of doubtful
value.
Large quantities Of peat or sphag.
mum moss We're produced and utilized
for stable Hitter, packing material, and
surgical dressing, and several hum
dred thousand acres Of peat soils were
used for the growth OF crops. The
peat Hitter was produced by the own

hut the packing material was sold
to florists for So ton. According
to J. w. HotSon of the Red Cross
more than half million peat pads
were prepared in this country for that
organization. Most of the moss was
gathered by volunteers from boys in
Washington, Oregon and Maine, and
the pads were used in military hos
pitfalls at home and abroad.
