WILL SUSTAIN PRICE
OF PORTO RICAN SUGAR
(Ry Associated Press

San Juan. Sept. 1.-THE Porto Ri
can Sugar Producers association has
replied TO request to join Cuban su =
gar interests in an effort to prevent re-
finers from forcing down the price of
raw sugar that, while the local asso-
citation cosld not join officially with
Cuba in such an effort because of the
federal laws, Porto Rico would no:
make shipments of sugar except as
sold
The cable received from the Asso-
citation de Hacendados Colonos dc
Cuba, said:
In view of the unjustified lowerir..
in prices of raw sugar which endan-
gers sugar growers interests to the
exclusive benefit of the refiners. w,
invite you to inform us if you thinl
1t possible to obtain joint action t,
adopt legitimate measures to avoit
grave losses in the present and comm
crop"
Following the receipt of this cable i,
meeting of the board of directors O
the Sugar Producers associate wa
called and Eduardo Gonzalez was au
thorized to send this reply for tn
association:
Federal legislation prevents join
action. We assure you that our polio
is to sell before shipment and not
offer in advance"

Los ANGELES TO
HAVE CONCERTS
Full Symphony Orchestra viii Play
Every Sunday Night.

The first attempt to carry out the
European idea of promenade concerts
with a full symphony orchestra will
be inaugurated by the new Hotel
Ambassador in Los Angeles when it
opens this winter. Arrangements have
been made with the entire Los An
geles Symphony Orchestra of sixty
musicians, under the direction of
Adolph Tandler, famous Viennese con-
ductor by which these concerts will
be given at the Ambassador every
Sunday night.
Instead of a continuous concert,
however, the programme will be
broken into two parts with a forty
five minute intermission. During this
intermission, guests will be served re-
freshments on the balconies of the
Ambassador ball room, entertain other
guests with small parties and even, if
they wish, have refreshments served
to them in their regular seats in the
auditorium.
The entire plan is to reduce the at
mosphere of said formality to a mini
mum, making the symphony concert
more the debonair event that one at
tends in London, Paris, or Milan. With
this further in mind, Adolph Tandler,
the director. has thrown down the
gauntlet to each conservative
symphony director by stating that
while a complete symphony will be the
first part of the promenade programme
the second part may be devoted to
much more popular music than has
heretofore been played by any organ
ganization.
When asked whether this meant that
he should play the popular songs and
ballads of the day Mr.. Tandler re-
piled: Anything that can be classed
as good music. we shall play. If a
popular song should have musical
merit in it's class, then I would not
hesitate to play it; but it would have
to have the positive componcnts of a
properly conducted work of art. There
have been such popular songs in the
past. There may be new ones at any
time"
The Ambassador ball room is being
especially equipped for these promen-
ade concerts and will seat 1900 people
on the floor and in the boxes. The
promenades at each side of the ball

WILL START WORK
ON FIRST OIL WELL
Drilling on Oklahoma Star Leases Will
Be Commenced Shortly.

Joe Gilligan, of the Oklahoma Star
Refining Co, has been in Pensacola
for the past few days completing pre-
liminary arrangements that will enable
this company to start drilling on their
Pensacola well.
According to Harry Thompson, the
Oklahoma Star Refining Co. is the
largest independent lease holding COM
pany in the United States, holding oil
and gas leases in Escambia, Holmes
and Walton counties on over $4,000
acres. and the brining in of oil in West
Florida will make them one of the
largest and strongest independent oil
companies in the country.
Drilling operations on well in Wal
ton county have already begun, Mr..
Thompson says. Well No. / is located
at Rock Hill, and will be drilled to a
depth of $500 feet. Well No. 2 is To-
Gated at Bruce Well No. 3. to be drilled
to a depth of $500 feet, is located a
short distance from Pensacola.
Messrs Brooks and Barnett, geolo
gists, who in the past eight months
have opened two big fields in Texas,
viz: the Kemp Munger Allen tract in
Iowa Park, and the Amarillo gas wells.
which produce one million seven hun
dred and fifty thousand cubic feet of
gas per day, have made a geological
survey of the Oklahoma Star Refining
Company's holdings in Escambia coun-
ty and, Mr.. Thompson says, report so
favorably on this area that they state
that the possibilities of hitting oil in
Escambia county are approximately 81
or SO out of a possible 100.
The Baker Drilling Company of Dali
a.,
homa Star Refining Company a 10000
acre tract and contracted to start drill
..g their well within ninety days. The
drilling of this well will prove up one
hundred and fifteen thousand acres adj
accent to the Baker Drilling Com
panys holdings which the oklahoma
star Refining Company have under
lease This well is to be located at Mos
sy Head. on the l.. & n. railway.
r. J. Brewton and Mr.. Gilligan say:
an opening up a new oil field such as
we have i'm West Florida the influx
OF nonied men and monied interests
from the proven fields of Texas and
Louisiana are beyond conception.
With these four wells being drilled in
the vicinity of Pensacola the citizens
may look forward within the next few
months to an era of financial prosper
ity and increased population such as
this progressive city has never before
known"

Burglars Shave, Battle, Dine,
In Lee St. Home and Escape
With $4,000 to $5OOOin Loot
Liberty Bonds, Silverware, Jewelry, Cash And
Clothes Taken While Crockett Family
Enjoys Outing

One or more gentlemen burglars,
who took plenty of time, in the alb
sence from the city of the household
ers, to shave, bathe, eat, drink and
be merry, then make off unseen
with valuables between $4,000 and
$4,000, visited the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. C. Crockett, at SIT Lee
street, a few days ago. Their visit
was not discovered by the Crocketts
until their return about O'Clock Fri
day night from Indian Springs, where
they had gone by automobile on an
outing of ten days. The theft and
the extent of the losses were report
ed to the police department and sher-
iff at once but evidences showed
the crime to have been committed
several days before, giving the thiev-
es good getaway.
The Crocketts were met as they
drove up to their home Friday eve
ming by a little daughter of Henry
Walker, a neighbor, who impaired
the information that their back door
had been found standing open. Later
it developed that neighbors during
the day had found the door unfasten-
ed and, investigating, had discover
ed signs of mischief inside the house.
Mr.. Crockett having left the back
door locked, with the key remaining
in the lock on the inside, hurried
within in alarm. Going to his bed
room, he found his chifforobe open,
with drawers pulled out and the con-
tents scattered about. Most of the
contents, however, were missing, in.
Guiding four suits of mems clothing
several shirts and neckties, socks, q
sweater and flashlight. From an.
other part of the room an mans size
gold watch and a pair of gold cuff
links with his initials engraved OF
them were found.
Mr.. Crockett next visited his desE
in the parlor where valuable paper;
were kept in a tin safety box ano
he there found the following miss
ing;2 Liberty bonds, $1,000 each; two
Liberty bonds of $500 each (all reg.
istered); three war savings certifi
cate books, filled and worth $85
each. At least two of the certifi
cate books were registered.
Nearby was receptacle which had
contained about $50 cash, tithine
money saved by Mrs, Crockett fol-
giving to the church. The money
was missing. On the desk were nu.
merous deeds, notes and other pa
pers which were not disturbed.
