open in the house after the Christ
mas recess.
Under special rule, the Butler
bill, authorizing construction Of 10
additional cruisers, will be called up
and Is expected to be disposed Of

When the measure is considered
the existing strength of the navy

discussed. Numerous members are
hcnt on running down reports that
the American navy has fallen in al
types of ships, below the 5-5-3
standard set by the Washington
arms conference.
Several members are agitating for
Immediate appropriation for con
struction of the 10 cruisers, but it
is unlikely money will be granted at
the present session. 1t is barely pos
sihle, however. the navy may ask
for sufficient funds to make plans
fer the vessels so no time will be
lost next year when appropriations
for actual construction may be cX-
pected.
Meanwhile. a resolution bv Rep.

OFFICERS FAIL,
TO GET MURPHY
IN THIS SECTION

Search at the border for Lee Dan

for wife murder, proved unsuccess-
full according to Detectives Kirkpat-
rick and Smith of the Long Beach
police department, who came to this
city yesterday following the discov-

here Sunday.
The detectives returned home this
morning, satisfied that Murphy had

turn. valley police officials would
be on the lookout for him.
Yesterday afternoon the Long
Beach men, accompanied by Chief

there. With their assistance they
went through the various resorts in

of Murphy. Neither could they To-

week by the fugitive after he had
come to this city from San Diego.
Before leaving, Smith and Kirk

basing the belief chiefly on the fact
that two sears on his forehead make

SAYS BAY RUM
CAUSED HIM TO
ROB LOCAL HOME

How a marked down. sale held
recently by local drug store land
ed Charles II. Harris in the county
jail on a charge of burglary, for
which he has been tried in the su-
perior court, was told A. w. Swan
son, county probation officer by the
prisoner, whose case is now in his
hands.
Harris, who is a telegrapher when
he is working at his trade, passed
through FL Centre a couple of weeks
ago making his way to the coast.
While passing down Main street he
found that certain store was hold
ing an attractive sale, and upon in
.vestigation he learned that he could
purchase a bottle of bay rum for 40
cents and by paying another penny
he could buy two. Such purchases
We're presumed to be confined to a
single purchaser. Harris, however,
according to his statement to Swan
son was able to make the rounds
of the store three times during 4
da". thereby getting six bottles of
the bag rum for $50. 1t was after
he consumed the bay rum that he
committed the burglary of private
home, he states, taking from it Il
coat, one pair of pants, one neck
tie and .razor-and two more bot
ties of bay rum.
He put on the stolen clothing,
drank the additional supply of the
tonsorial fluid and was on his way,
when he was arrested at Jacumba.
The sentence for the felony is from
one to II years in the state peniten-
tiary. Harris application for pro-
baton is under advisemcnt.
