With Temperatures little changed and
winds moderate and mostly from the
west, San Antonio will experience a
cloudy Friday night and an unsettled
Saturday, according to the forecast Of
]. II. Jarboe, local weather observer.
The minimum temperature will be be-

Millions in gold coin have been removed from the Ma.

In fact the held that the gold being
brought out of Mexico by private persons and that
being struggled in violation of the Mexican law which
tends to prohibit expectation of gold For that reason
rumor attracted practically attention
Some weeks United States officials along the border
admitted that they had been asked by Mexican customs off
Gals to help prevent smuggling of gold but said that
told that the gold being by private persons
They profess to be in ignorance of any plan smugge
onal treasury money out of Mexico. However they admit
that this has been done in the past and that is not at all
improbable. .
They do not attempt to speculate to who is respo-

which would result in the treasury of nation being

DELAY DRY CHARGES
Agents Puzzled Whethe- Some Hotel
Rooms Have Stntus of Homes.

Delay in filing complaints against
seven or eight prominent persons for
alleged violations of the national pro-
hibition laws New Years eve has been
brought about by q technicality, it was
reported at prohibition headquarters
Friday morning.
The prohibition agents have asserted
that they do not desire 10 file any COM
plants that will not stick The at
tention of the prohibition agents was
called to the fact. that a number of
people had their homes in the leading
hotels of town where the parties were
held, and before the complaints are
filed the agents desire. TO determine
whether those against whom evidence
is alleged to be held, were members Of
parties in hotel rooms that had the
status of homes.
The courts have held, IL has been
pointed out, that search warrant must
be procured By the prohibition agents
before they may search a home.
This technicality. it is reported at
prohibition headquarters, was the sub
ject of consultation between prohi-
bition agents and the United States
district attorneys office.
Agents are pursuing the investiga-
tions TO determine whether occupants
Of the rooms have any other place
of residence or whether they are per-
manent guests of the hotels. II the
latter IRIS the case then no complaint
will be filed. it is believed. If, how
ever. it is ascertained that the hotel
rooms are not homes, then complaints
will be filed. -
