START ARGUMENTS
in MURDER
TRIAL

Arguments in the trial of M. Moreno,
Mexican youth charged with the MUIR
der of j. +. Hogan, began before Su-
perior Judge Cole early this afternoon,
with promise that Morcno's fate will
be in the hands of his jury before ad-
jOurnncnt of court.
With the state s case built on cir
cumstantial evidence, certain links of
which the defense attacked as i'm
probable, Attorney j. l.. Seymour, in
Earl Rogerian fashion, sought to es-
tablish by subtleties and innucndo that
others committed the crime. Inasmuch
as four witnesses arrested near the
crime have been held in jail since the
murder, the element OF dramatic sur
prise was ever in Attorney Seymour s
grasp, lending interest to the case.
Deputy District Attorney Scott, pro-
scouting Moreno, made a strong, logi-
cal argument for Moreno s conviction.
Hogan was discovered beaten to
death, the body having been robbed,
near Calipatria several weeks ago

CALEXICO, March 2S.-Charles Ed

here for the alleged forgery of City
Treasurer Ramsey 8 name to number
of blank checks stolen from the treas
urer's office, was for more than four
years a steady, hardwOrking and en-

he has wife and child, according to
Los Angeles people who arrived here to
investigate his plight.
Hall lost his position in Los Angeles,
through no fault of his own, according
to the statement of these people, and
came to the Imperial Valley to secure
work. He had been here but a few
days and not finding job, drifted
across the line to Mexicali, where in

soon drove all idea of work from him
and one of the men he was assOciatine

MEXICAN SOLDIERS
HIT BY DRY
RULING

MEXICALI, b. c., Mex, March Is
Strict prohibition was ordered into eff
feet here today for the soldierv of the
Northern District of Lower California
when General Pablo Macias, territorial
commander, issued an edict to bars
wholesale houses, cafes and restaurants
that service of liquor to soldiers will
result in revocation of the offender Is
license.
Following the injunction placed on
liquor sales to soldiers, General Macias
issued a general military order declar-
'ng that any member of the Northern
District guilty of purchasing or using
intoxicants would be courtmartialed
and confined in prison.
General Macias's S explanation of the
unusual edict is being given consider
able significance. He declared he had
placed the ban en- booze because
sporadic trouble and disturbances in
the military or government are too
likely to start under the influence OF
alcohol. -
The order resulted from thearrest OF
several soldiers on a spree when dis
orders were narrowly averted, it was
said.

BIG INCREASE IN
COTTON PRICES
PREDICTED


No radical movements of cotton prices
lv rising prices are probable, accord
ing to Brookmire S Forecaster, an
authentic economic publication relied
ON by cotton producers and buyers, a
copy Of which was IN the hands of cot
ton growers here today.
Supply Below Normal
A below-normal supply of cotton for
world markets is predicted by the
" Forccaster,' based OH n survey of the
cotton situation throughout the world.
"As the outlook stands now, says the
publication, eve should have close to
a normal years supply of new cotton
with something less than a normal
carry forward, so that the total supply
will be something below what the
world consumes in an average year
A balance between an increasing de-
mand heretofore abormally low and Il
slightly short supply should prevail, it
was predicted. However, price move
ments are unlikely until the crop report
has become available August lst.
Crop Forecast
The 1902 forecast for crop production
is made as follows by Brookmirc 5
Forecaster:
Acreage, 34,50o,o00; bales, II, 100000.
'There win be u relatively small
carry over of raw cotton at the close
of the year, and the supply for the year
to be cnded August !, 1923, must large
ly be cotton from 1922 production,

tion rather an optimistic outlook and
increased acreage in this district will
be the result
