MONEY On HAND
To AID ALFALFA
MEN to CARRY ON
GF0,cers Exchange Has Nego-
ticted Lean to Finance Pro-
dHcfr During Slump in Mar.
Eet.

The demand for alfalfa hay showed
further Improvement during the week
IN nearly all parts of the state. The
movement to central markets continues
light as compared with requirements
which have been enlarged by most
users now trying, as far as they are
financially able, to lay in at least some
supply beyond their immediate needs,
realizing that the non producing sea-
son will soon be here, when buying
reserve supplies, is apt to be expen-
sive as well as inconvenient.
Prices were firm, ranging the same
as before to dollar higher.
We referred last week to the pros
pect Of the association securing credits
TO be used for making loans to our
member growers for the purpose of
helping them to carry their hay until
it can be sold in the regular course Of
the current demand.
We are pleased to state that we have
definitely secured credit Of 100000
and more if considered necessary, for
this purpose, to be used as needed.
The money will be handled by the
state exchange, working through the
local associations, who will in turn
loan it to the individual growers, with
their hay of course as security, the
loans TO be paid back out of the pro-
ceeds of the hay.
Applications by the growers for
such loans will therefore have to be
made TO the respective district asso-
Citations, where th.y E>sll also receive
full information : arding terms, con-
ditl0ns, etc.
The demand for fertilizer hay keeps
on increasing rapidly, the best prices
for such are being paid in the sec
tions where it has been used longest
and therefore its merits are best
known 10 the users. We made a sale
of 200 tons of such hay this week in
the Riverside district at $40 a ton,
chopped, grove delivery, the chopping
cost is 81 a ton.
We are told that there is a growing

FIGHT DECISION
WAS SIMPLY ROTTEN

Az more surprised and indignast
crowd never left the Owl boxing arena
than on Sunday when the refree gave
the ten-round fight to Kid Mex of
Mexicali, when he and Young Garcia
of Yuma, fought one of the prettiest
exhibitions of clean work and science
seen in the Owl arena since it opened.
Frcm start to finish Garcia had all
the best of it including two knock
downs and a wonderful exhibition of
ducking. The spectators practically
all agreed that Garcia had the fight
won from the first round on and the
action Of the refree was ineXplicable.
Manager Joe Flores was one OF
the most indignant of the lot. He
said this morning: "Pico will never
referee another fight for me. At
the very worst Garcia had six of the
ten rounds and | told the refree so.
l am dead against anything of this
kind and | want the decision to go
to the best man always no matter
wheatherhe is white or colored or
what he is. No one regrets the de-
cision Sunday more than / do and
it will never happen again"
Next Sunday there will be a
strong card. Lee Morrisey and Bat
tling Nick from San Diego. Two
months ago the latter got the decision
over Morrisey in a ten round go.
Molrisey has been trying to get an
ether try at Nick and Manager Flores
finally signed him up yesterday. On
account of the match Sunday betwees
8-Rocks" and Kid Kayo of Vernon
being a draw they are to be given an
otherchance next Sunday. Kid Llanos
of Mexicali and Rabbit from Ell Centre
will put on the preliminary. Both are
good boys and we'll matched.

MOTOR LAW FOR
EVERY DRIVER
(By Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 1.-THE
movement of civic bodies and traffic
officers of California to reduce the
number of automobile accident and
casualties has received the hearty en-
dorsement of the California State
Automobile association.
In recent bulletin it says that the
number of fatalities and injuries due
to automobile accident has become 50
alarming that it has prepared series
of lessons designed to instruct The
motorist in precautions he should take
to insure his own safety, and chat Of
other users of the public highway.
The first lesson is by George E.
Sanford, general attorney for the au-
tomobile club land deals with speed
limits as defined by California law
Mr.. Sanford's lesson follows:
Under the motor vehicle act of
this state the law provides for the reg
ulation of speed limits of automobiles
with this state and according to a
reasonably late Supreme court deci-
sion, overrides and takes precedence
to any ordinance that municipality
may make contrary to the provisions
contained in said act.
"In brief, the law divides the speeds
of automobiles into six classes,
35 miles per hour upon an open
highway.
20 miles per hour in a closely built
up, or residential district.
Is miles per hour in business dis
trict, around corners, and across inter-
sections where there are no car tracks.
10 miles pc hour at intersections Of
streets where there are car tracks,
Each one Of these speed limits =
subject to certain exceptions, for IN
stance: Where the law provides that
it shall be lawful to drive at the ra I,
of 35 miles, this speed is limite to
driving in the day time and on open
highway where the highway is visits"
for a distance of 400 feet ahead; at
night and where the highway is not
visible for such distance ahead, the
speed is reduced to 80 miles an hour

SO ADVANCE
Of COTTON
IN MARKET
TODAY
Wild Scenes of Yesterday
Renewed on New York
Exchange. Twenty-fi v e
Cent Cotton Freely Pre-
uiClcu. ~ u N

Heavy continental demand from
Liverpool, continued reports of the un-
favorable condition of the growing
crop, caused cotton to jump $40 per
bale at the opening OH the New York
cotton exchange this morning, over
the close of yesterday. The advance
was on all months of the future.
Trade and commission houses bought
wildly throughout the session and 25
cent cotton was freely perdicted be-
fore the day was over.
Crop conditions were reported bad
The heat and dry weather has been
very detrimental and considerable
shedding is reported and damage from
the boil weevil continues, especially
in the states east of the Mississippi.
The army worm is also reported in
to be very destructive in tienorthern
part of Mississippi and portions of
Arkansas. The bulk of the crop in
southern Texas has been picked and
ginned and picking has become gen
eral in most of the southern states.
Imperial Valley cotton which has
been picked so far is all volunteer and
the regular crop will not come into
the market for some time yet, but
the condition on both sides of the line
is reported good and not great deal
below normal crop.
The CaleXico cotton exchange was
filled the entire morning with a wild
ly excited crowd of brokers and grow
ers who were all smiles and cheers.
1t was the general expression that
with cotton at 20 cents or better, every
grower in the valley could toss care
to the winds and make q new declar-
alton of independence from the econ
omc tyrants chat have been holding
them to the grubbing hoe for all these
months. ts ~f
There is no inclination on the part
of the cotton men to grow wildly eX-
cessive in their administration of af-
fairs however. The lessons of the past
are too well ground in, and contiu-
alton of the strictly economic habits
of the past are promised in order that
the business shackles may not be
returned to their wrists.
The optimism of the cotton men
was reflected in other lines of trade
endeavor and there seemed that every
one was in more cheerful mood and
more sanguine over the future.

ANGELES
4 &c n 7 IS
SEEKING
Al D
Meeting With All Interests
in Boulder Creek Project
To Bring About Amicable
Understanding Asked.

The Los Angeles power bureau
which is trying to secure the hydro
electric rights of the great Boulder
Canyon dam project for the future
benefit of the Angel City. is making
another effort to secure the aid of the
people Of the Imperial Valley in the
furtherance of their aims.
But this time the big municipality
has come into the valley in a more
sabdued spirit and with less fuss and
feathers and blowing of tlumpets and
sounding of tomtoms.
A. w. Sewers, a we'll known veteran
newspaper man of Los Angeles, who
for years was engaged in the prepara-
ton of commercial and business stories
for the Herald and Express of that
city has been engaged by the Mulhor-
land, Scattergood, Matthews crowd to
come down here and find out what the
people here want.
Mr.. Sewers is to be the principal
speaker at the Ell Centre Chamber of
Commerce luncheon at the San Fran
cisco grill tonight ard his talk prom
ises to be a most interesting one and
will be worth the while of everyone
who can possibly attend the luncheon
to do so.
The city of Los Angeles according
to Mr.. Sewers is in position where
within the next five or six years she is
going to find herself without sufficient
electric power to supply her needs.
1t is vitally necessary that she secure
several hundred thousand horse power
more of electric energy at once, and
Boulder Creek looked better than any
other place to the power bureau Off
cials up there.
The city now wants to find out if
the Imperial Valley and the rest Of
the back country wont join it in some
kind Of an amicable arrangement for
mutual benefit. The Imperial Valley,
says Mr.. Sewers, needs more water for
irrigation purposes, and it needs flood
control. Los Angeles needs more eelc-
trio juice to take care of her vast in
dustrial expansion.
To bring about q better understand
ing of the motives and plans of the
city, to arrive at friendly and CO.
operative spirit, it is the plan of this
latest emissary of the Los Angeles
power bureau to secure an agreement
for general meeting of all the .4,,
ties at interest in the matter. All the
Imperial Valley, all of the back coun-
try, is to be invited to meet with the
representatives of the big city. Every
body is invited to Indulge in full and
frank discussion Of the problems be-
fore all of the southern part of the
state. Los Angeles, says Mr.. Sewers
is going to lay all her cards on the
table face up, and invite everyone else
to do the same, and the people of the
Imperial Valley are asked to make q
choice of all the propositions submit
ted, In this way Los Angeles hopes
to win out in the Boulder Canyon
struggle against the private power
corporations.

Gold Laden Customs Employees
From, Tia Juana Freed for
Brief Time.

AUSTIN AntuneZ and Romero Breton.
customs inspector and clerk respect-
lvely, in the Mexican service at Tia
Juana, who were arrested in Los An
geles last week on suspicion of rob-
bery, they having in their possession
two sacks of gold coin, which is al
legged to be the property of the Mex
ican government, were released from
custody by the police there yesterday
but were Immediately rearrested on a
charge of violation of the United
States immigration laws, and are now
being held in the county jail at Los
Angeles.
While this proceeding was pending
before United States Commissioner
Long, j. Cara Zerbutche, the Mcxi-
can consul. swore out a writ of re-
plevin for the recovery of the money
and an automobile found in possession
OF the prisoners, and gave bond on be-
half of the Mexican government with
a local surety company for the value
OF the person property, which is
claimed by the republic. The writ
OF replevin recites that $4,000 in
United States gold and an automobile
worth $1,000 were taken from the prs-
oners, and are now in the hands of
immigration Inspector Burnett. This
official was given five days within
which to make answer to the writ of
replevin.
The bond given by the Mexican
government is in an amount twice
the value of the cash and machine TAX
en- from AtuunZ and Rratnn
1t is understood that the evidence
in possession of the state authorities
was not sufficient to prosecute.
If officials of Mexico are able to
show that the money and automobile
were the property of the government
both will be turned back to then right
full owners, and Antunez and Breton
extradited by the Mexican government
for prosecution on a charge of eE. bez-
element of public funds.

OF him has been found since he ran

Every available man on the island
on which is situated the Federal pris-

beaches and watching the boats moored
along shore to prevent Gardner from

Launches in close order patroled the
waters around the island throughout

the shore or be picked up by some
confederate in a boat. Warden Thos.
Maloney scouts the idea that Gardner
has made his way off the island and
states that he will be found in some
OF the outlying reaches of the place
within very short time.
The spot where Gardner is believed
hidden offers abundant opportunity
for concealment. The ground is split
with ravines and cove:va with timber.

ment at the celebration of the centen
nial of its independence in Mexico
