| fire today.
At 12:45 p. M. the police reported
| that no one had been killed.
Fire broke out in q Jerome avenue

burning car. The train crew checked
the flames with extinguishers. Thick
black smoke filled the train immediate
" afterwards.
All lights went out and trains stop
ped running.
Passengers Locked in Cars
Passengers in terror tried to escape
from the ears in which they were
locked. Windows were smashed by ter
rified women and men who climbed
through, some injuring themselves Sc
broken panes.
Philip Deller, guard on the train, told
the United Press Of the terror of the
panic.
'When the fuse blew out there was
a deathly hush among the passengers.
No one spoke until we turned extingu-
ishers on little fire which started.
"Then as smoke filled the train,
women and children and some men
burst out screaming. They were held
fast in the train.
Crash Through Window Glass
"PeOple rushed to the center and the
ends of the car and battered against
the heavy steel doors with their fists.
Then came crashes of glass as windows
began to go. Many got outside the
ears and bumped and stumbled along in

DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
GETS $500 FUND

In accordance with an act of the
general assembly passed last August.
the supervisors this morning voted to
set aside fund of $4,000 for main
tenance of the district attorneys Of
flee. This fund is to be used for extra
ordinary expenses, such rs advancing
railroad fare for state witnesses and
expense incurred in investigating
criminal cases. Heretofore the district
attorneys office has been handicapped
by lack of immediate funds, and it is
expected the new appropriation will
eliminate such embarrassment in the
future.

the horticultural commissioner to open
branch office at the Dunlack hotel
in Brawley, to enable more efficient

NEW STARTS
WAR ON
PRIMARY
United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Predicting
a nation wide onslaught on the primary
system of nominating candidates and
return to the old convention plan, Sen
ator New of Indiana today declared
that the Newberry case was direct
result of the primary system. He as
serted the plan is Conspicuous fail
ure' and the breeder of political cor
ruption and inefficiency in public
service. New was recently defeated
for nomination by Beveridge.
Others of this group of senators are
similarly menaced as are members OF
the house. Secretary Weeks recent at
tack on the direct primary is regarded
as an opening gun of the campaign
New said the fight on the primary will
not be nationally directed, by any cen.
trail organization. But, it was learned
elaborate plans have been made for IN
educational campaign designed to
prove to the public that the primary is
failure and that it let's into public
life bolshevists," radicals and the
apostles of many strange "isms."
State Campaigns Planned
The campaign against the primary
system is to be conducted in every state
having a primary law, with the sup
port and aid of those members of con-
gress commonly referred to as the "old
guard" Two senate members of this
group, New of Indiana, and McCumber
of North Dakota, have suffered inter
ruptions to political careers this year
through operations of senatorial pri-
maries.
In some instances efforts will be
made to render the system imperative
by amending the law.
New asserted today that there is q
reaction against the primary system
among the American people.
."It is conspicuous failure and in
the interest of good morals ought to be
eliminated. He said "It is the cause
of more political corruption than any
other one thing. 1t forces conditions
like these Newberry eases upon candi-
dates for office. Under the convention
system of nominating, Senator New.
berry would have been nominated for
one fifth or less than what it cost him
"Severe disappointment" New Says
Men are nominated for office who
under the convention system, would
not have look in. They get the people
to fall for them. When they get into
office the result is often disastrous to
public welfare.
"These facts are beginning to be
faced, and there is, therefore, a strong
reaction against the primary system.
Some states are already turning away
from it and going back to the conven-
tion. New York did so recently. Other
states will follow, in my opinion.

diana years ago. We got it and we
suffered a severe disappointment as q
result of the way it operated.
