Sonora Legislature
 Is Facing Dilemma

When the Sonora state legislature convenes at Hermosillo on September 1. coincident with the inauguration or Gov. de la Huerta, the prospect IS that that body will be confronted with a rather novel situation, in that 1t will find as members three men whom IL recently refused to seat. What will De their fate this time remains to De seen.
 At the time several months ago when Adolfo de la Huerta was elected governor. members of the legislature were also chosen. But following the contest the legislature refused to con firm the election of the three depu. ties from Hermosillo, Guaymas and Magdalena, on the ground that they were reactionaries. All three had sup ported Pesqueira for governor, but they denied strongly that they were reactionaries, as did their supporters
 However, the legislature refused tc recognize the three members and or dred a new election in all three dls tricts to be held August 31 in connec tion with the election of presidentes municipales. And now word comes from Hermosillo. Guaymas and Mag dalena that all three districts are go ing to elect the same men they elect ed before, thus passing the buck bacl to the legislature.

INQUEST TODAY
 ON LAD STRUCK
 BY AUTOMOBILE

Coroner James Allison this morning will hold an inquest to decide re- sponsibility for the accident which yesterday resulted in the death of Rudolfo Alvarado, aged seven, of 169 Naco Road. The boy was struck and almost instantly killed by an automo- bile driven by Oscar Langbein. The inquest will be at g o'clock.
 Different stories as to how the acct- dent happened, told by Langbein and Thomas Henry who was in the car with him, and by other eye witnesses, will be sifted.
 The fatality took place on the road to Lowell opposite the Slag Dump garage yesterday morning. Langbein says that young Alvarade> e>was riding on the back of a loaded wagon and jumped off directly in the path of the auto just as he was about to pass. Other witnesses say the boy was not riding on the wagon but darted from behind it and attempted to cross in front of the auto.
 r All agree that Langbein's car was moving at a slow rate of speed and that the accident was practically un- avoidable. The boys skull was frac- tured. He died before he could be rushed to the c. & A. hospital.
 The funeral, which is in charge of the Hennessy Undertaking company, will probably be held today.

One Hour in Jail
 Per Mile of Speed,
 Auto Lunatic Cure

Another victim of Police Chief Kempton's crusade against auto ists that insist on stepping on her" within the city limits ap- peared before Police Judge Nor ton yesterday in the person of Clarence E. Eibes. Eibes pleaded not guilty to the charge and his trial was set for 5 o'clock this afternoon.
 According to the police this young man has been fragrant fracturer of the speed laws. They say he has been warned many times.
 Eibes was summoned to the police station upon the complaint of a number of citizens that he was burning up the atmosphere about Tombstone canyon at an excessive speed.
 Judge Norton and Chief Kemp ton stated yesterday that a hor- rible example is going to be made of somebody pretty soon as de- terrent to those motorists who find 15 miles an hour too slow for them. AS many hours behind the bars as they take out of the speedometer is being considered as a cure.

AUTO LOAD IF
 LIQUOR SEIZED;
 TWO ARRESTED

While on hunt for Walter Kidder, escaped bootlegger, last Thursday night, a posse of officers composed ot Deputy Sheriff Tom Foster, Deputy Sheriff Mert Gilman, Constable H. H. Bohmfalk and Police Sergeant Hill Ruff ran into one of the largest car goes of contraband whiskey found in this section in some weeks. The booze was in a SeVen-passenger Hupmoblle car belonging to d woman named May Joiner and was found at her home in South Bisbee.
 Late Thursday night the deputies got a tip" that Kidder, who made his escape near Hereford last week after being arrested by Deputy Sheriff Harry Rafferty with a carload Of whiskey. was at the Joiner womans house. known as the Charlie Olson place. They surrounded the plabe, but instead of capturing Kidder they found the carload of whiskey.
 The Joiner woman and man named Paul Kuntz, said to be klo- der's hrother-in-law, were arrested. Deputy Sheriff Foster drove over to Tombstone with KuntZ and the whis- key early yesterday morning. kuntz and the Joiner woman were released on bonds of $500.
 Kidder has been in trouble before and the officers have been searching for him ever since he escaped from Rafferty near Hereford. Kidder was driving the car at the time, with Raf- ferty beside him. Seizing the oppor- tunity he gave the car a throttle full of gas and jumped out. By the time Rafferty seized the wheel and got the car under control, Kidder had disap- peared.
 The Olson house where the Joiner woman was arrested has long been suspected as a rendezvous and supply point for bootleggers. At one time there is said to have been 300 cases of whiskey cached there. Thursday night, however. was the first time that any one has been -caught with the goods"

 BISBEE MATCH
 IS CALLED OFF

On again, off again! This, in brief, is the story of the Ralph Lincoln Jimmy Fox match that had been earded for Labor day in Bisbee. G. J. Kelly, baseball scout and boxing promoter, had succeeded in getting the two boys together for a scrap here, but yesterday the directors of the Warren District Athletic club de cided to call the bout off.
 One fight month, the athletic club directors decided, was enough, so there will be no fight here on Labor day. Besides, the argument was ad- vanced, Labor day bout would come too soon after the Loughrey- Chambers battle scheduled for Aug 22, and in addition it was figured the Labor day date was too far from pay day, and anyway the mines would not close down on Labor day. Taking all these angles into consideration, Il was decided to call the match off.
 Kelly, who had arranged the match immediately wired Lincoln and Fo1 that the deal was off, in the hope that they may have time to arrange other dates on Labor day.
 Secretary Tom Egan or the warren District Athletic club, got into touch yesterday with Otto Wallace anC Tommy Carter and it is probable these two game lads will be matched here on Sept. 22. Wallace fights Gene Falmont at Fl Paso on Labor day while Carter will tangle with Eddie Shannon at Miami on the same day. It is recognized that the Fox-LincolI scrap would have been drawing card, as both lads are contenders fol the bantam weight title. At the same time, Kelly received letter yester day from Earl Mohan, Lincoln's man ager, suggesting that if Fox could no be brought on from the coast LncolI would prefer to fight the Zulu Kid'' who is now in Tucson and looking fol match.
