paign for Nomination

WASHINGTON, Dec Ex-senator
Hiram W. Johnson, Of California, for
mally announced tonight he would be
a candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for the Presidency. The Sena-
tor said he would make a personal
campaign in every state, explaining he
did not intend to have his candidacy
determined by politicians in conven-
ton"
Plans Of Senator Johnson, who ran
as the Vice-P Presidential candidate with
Theodore Roosevelt on tho Progressive
ticket in 1912, include direct appeal
to the electorate in each state, whether
their choice of candidate is made by
convention or primary, he announced.
81 have been laid up for the last
week and 1 am leaving Sunday night
for California" Senator Johnson s
statement said. ~ hope to get myself
in shape in couple of weeks there
and to enter into the Presidential cam
paign on my return.
II fully realize the handicaps under
which / labor and the obstacles which
l must overcome, but l am exercising
what is every Americans birthright
OF course, any success for me must
come from the people themselves, not
from certain we'll known class of
politicians, or from those whose inter
ests make such politicians. Wherever
it is possible l am going direct to the
people. Upon my return l shall an
nounce a definite and specific program.

$40, 900 in Furs
Lost in Theft
Would-Be Buyer Suspect
ed OF Planning Crime;
Recovery Not Expected

Another big fur robbery was report
ed yesterday by F. kirschnel- furrier,
Of Is East Eighth Street. Ten thous-
and dollars worth of pelts, he says,
were taken from his place week ago
yesterday, between S and O'Clock in
the morning. The loot consisted of
several hundred muskrat, mink, skunk
and squirrel skins.
Kirschner said he arrived at his
shop on the morning of the robbery
in time to hear the thieves scurrying
up the stairs from his loft to the roof,
whence they made their escape. They
had apparently, he says, thrown their
loot to a waiting truck which had dis
appeared from in front of the place
before he arrived. The goods were not
insured.
Kirschner says he has little hope of
recovering any of the property, believ-
ing that the men who took it are con-
nected with a band of thieves who
know how to alter the skins beyond all
chance of recognition. He suspects a
clean saven, sound faced man, about
five feet seven inches tall, who wears
a derby hat and a close fitting black
coat, who called upon him the day be-
fore the robbery as prospective pur-
chaser. He observed that the man
carefully scrutinized his place during
the interview and acted in a suspi-
ciously absent minded manner.

Action Follows Washington Order
The announcement by Mr.. Nixon that
the drastic regulations were no longer
in force was made after a conference
with Mr.. Hardin. The conference took
place following Mr.. Hardin's receipt of
the following telegram from the Cen
tral Coal Committee at Washington:
effective at once the restrictions
imposed by order of the Fuel Admin
istration on December governing the
use Of heat, light and power generated
by public utilities companies from
bituminous coal and coke are hereby
removed until further notice. This
does not cancel any of the existing
orders governing the release of bitum-
nous coal to public utilities or other
consumers"
Mr.. Nixon Immediately took steps to
brighten Broadway and to restore gen
orally the city's lighting and heating
to a normal basis
All restrictions as to heat, light
and power as given in DR.. Garfeld's s
order are for the time being sus-
pended" Mr.. Nixon said. "a confer
ence with Mr.. Hardin has resulted in
complete lifting of ali restrictions
for the present. The responsibility
having been localized it was decided
that conditions here warrant such ac-
ton.
Public Praised for Cooperation

American Seized
By Panch0 Villa
$4,000 Ransom, Report
ed Asked for Ranchn1ar,
Take,, IL, Coaluila Raid

EAGLE PASS, Tex, Dec. 13-Frank
Hugo, an American citizen, manager
of the ]. M. Dobies ranch, near Muz-
quiz, State Of Coahuila, is being held
for ransom by the Villistas, who raided
Muzquiz last Tuesday.
No other American was taken by the
bandits, and an Englishman seized by
them was later released, according to
word received here to-day.
Hugo is held for $4,000 ransom, it
was said, and several prominent Mex
leans are held for $4,000 ransom each.
The Englishman released was R. B.
Rawson, representative of the Eagle
Pass Lumber Company.
One Of the Mexicans held is Don
Miguel Muzquiz Pena, one of the
wealthiest ranchmen in Mexico, it is
said. His wife escaped by running to
Rosita, several miles distant, where
she telegraphed her son to send the
ransom money to Pine Solo, 12O miles
from Muzquiz, the point designated by
the bandits.
The Villistas, who we're reported to
be led by Pancho Villa himself, left
Muzquiz Friday at p. M, taking the
same direction over the hills toward
Chihuahua State, whence they came,
according to Mexican Consul G. M. Sc
guin, of Eagle Pass
Much uneasiness was felt in Piedras
Negras, the Mexican town opposite
here, and fearing a return of the ban
dts and possible attack upon their
town the residents did not go to bed
last night. In every house light was
burning, it was said.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator
Sheppard, of Texas, to-day asked the
State Department to investigate re-
ports that Fred G. Hugo, manager of
the j. M. Dobies ranch in Mexico, had
been kidnapped and held for ransom by
the Villistas, who raided Muzquiz last
Tuesday. The Senator made no men,
tion of any other Anne rican captured.
Reports to the department yester-
day from the American Consul at
Juarez said no Americans had been
harmed" during the raid

more energetic search will be made
for the boys body along the Ventnor
Beach front just as soon as the fog

Police Sprague, Of Ventnor, who says
he believes the boy was thrown into
the ocean from the end of the Ventnor
fishing pier.
Mrs. Agnes Miller Blake, the mother,
has been separated from her husband
tor four years, and much of that time
has been treated by physicians for a
nervous ailment. Mr.. Blake, who con-
ducts an insurance brokerage business
in Philadelphia, has made his home
with his wife's mother, Mrs. Clara
Miller, and her sister, Miss Maude Mil
Ter. The children, Esther, ten, and
James, or Buddy as they called him,
also lived there, and when the father
wasn't home the mother has been ac-
customed to visit the children. Last

She told her sister she was planning
to ride down to Ventnor, about five
miles south, in a jitney automobile and
visit a Mrs. Rile. with whom she for
merry boarded. She was modishly at
tired in black suit, and the boy wore
a sweater suit of gray wool and a hat
of similar material.
Mrs. Blake went from her mothers
home to the Office of her physician, DR..
William H. Fox, 1916 Pacific Avenue,
not far away. He has been treating
her since she has lived in Atlantic
City. 1t was 4:45 p. M, according to
DR.. Fox, when Mrs. Blake and the boy
left his Office.
Woman Gives Alarm
1t was about 6 o'clock last night
when the women in the household of
Benjamin Fox, 1O9 South Cambridge
Avenue, were alarmed by some one
pounding on the front door. Fox, u
building contractor, had not returned
home from his Office. His sister, Mrs.
Annie Clavey, middle-aged woman,
opened the front door. A woman, hat
less and with long black hair in a
tangle on her shoulders, fell across
the doorsill into the sun parlor.
