MACCIO COMPANY
SUED FOR DEATH
OF A. {. PECK

Damages of $4,000 have been
asked by Mrs. Iva Peck in civil
action filed this morning against
Maggie Brothers.
The action is based on the death
Of Aud c. Peck, husband of the
plaintiff, who was fatally injured
in an automobile accident on the
Yuma highway between Holtville
and Grey Well year ago. Saliva
dore Maggie was the driver of the
truck which ran into the Peek car
parked by the highway, the de-
ceased suffering a fractured skull
as result of the wreck.
Maggie was tried on a charge of
manslaughter in the superior court
as result of the accident and was
convicted by jury. The court,
however, granted the defendant a
new trial because of the fact that
members of the jury disregarded in
structions of the court not to visit
the scene of the accident until after
verdict was returned.
The defendant, however, later en-
tered plea of guilty to the charge.
In the action filed this morning
by Mrs. Peck, she alleges that she
has been damaged in the sum of
$4,000 and asks judgment in that
amount, plus $3.50, alleged to have
been expended by her as a result of
her husband 8 death. Edward Pat
terson and M. G. Atchison are ap-
pearing as attorneys for the plain
tiff.

Police Fire
Upon Rioters
BY United Press Leased Wire

SYDNEY, Australia, Nov. q
Police and union dock laborers
fought for half an hour in the
streets today. The police, confronted
by 1000 workmen, were outnumber-
ed and fired on the crowd. Three
men were wounded, one seriously.
1t was the most serious disorder
growing out of the recently settled
water front strike. The union men,
angered at the protection given to
volunteer workers who took their
places during the strike, attacked
a group of volunteers in the street.
Police tried to stand between the
two factions but were stoned by the
rioters. Finding their batons useless,
the police fired over the heads of
the crowd as warning. 1t resulted
in concerted charge by the mob,
and the police fired into the crowd.
During the struggle, dozens of
men were pushed into the harbor.
All were pulled out.

 MET IN LAND GRANT
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS FAVOR ABLY DISPOSED, COLLEGE
 PRESIDENT SAYS

IA ] 1915, granting to the Territory a site for an Agricultural College and School of Mines, reserved from sale or set clement for the college, section 33 in leach township in the Panama Valley between parallels GA and 65 north lat itude, and between the 145th and the 152nd degrees of west longitude. These sections were not granted to the Territory for the College but were simply resrevd from sale or settle ment with the expectation that in course of time, they would produce permanent fund of considerable size to be invested by the Treasurer of the Territory and the income thereof paid to the Board of Trustees of the College to be used for the maintain ance of the College.
 The Territorial Legislature has au- thorized the Board of Trustees to lease this land but the terms of any lease cannot run more than 10 years. none of this land has been leased and the chances are that no one desiring to use the same for agricultural pur- poses will feel disposed to lease un- improved agricultural land for 10 year period. With reference to such portions of these sections as are min- eral, the Department of the Interior takes the position that these areas are open for exploration under the laws of the United States and may be disposed of as are other mineral lands of the public domain, but the pro- ceeds of sale or lease would be cover ed into hte permanent fund for they would have no right to lease any min eral lands in any section reserved from sale or settlement by the Act of March i. 1915 In other words, the reservation applies only to agricul- tural land. If valuable mineral land is discovered and located in the areas mentioned, the locator may proceed with it just as he would with any oth- CT mineral land on the public domain. He can do his annual assessment work each year and never pay any thing that will be covered into the fund for the College. If he patents the area located, the amount paid for the tract will become part of the fund If the mineral land contains coal or oil and is taken under lease from the Government, the rentals col lected will become part of the per- mannt fund
 While in Washington, Governor Parks and President Bunnell,- in Sew ard this week, discussed this matter with officials of the Department of the Interior and were advised that the Department would be opposed to an Act reserving from sale or settle ment each section B in every town ship in the Territory. The opinion was expressed that reserving from sale or settlement only would proba- bly, not be productive of any substan- tial benefits. It was also stated that a specific grant was the method heres tofore used and hence the name the land-grant college.
 It was also indicated that there would be no opposition to granting to the Territory for the College, 100000 acres of land to be selected by the Board of Trustees of the College and by them sold and the amount received covered into permanent fund for the

BY the Associated Press
LONDON, August 8.--The London
Sketch said today that Oscar Slater
had accepted the governments offer OF
$4,000 compensation for wrongful con-
viction of murder 10 years ago.
Proposals that Slater should be COM
pensated were made soon after a
Scotch court had cleared his name on
July 20 of the murder of Miss Mary
Gilchrist. an aged woman. He had
been released on parole last November
after serving 10 years of a life sem
tence and Immediately began a fight
to establish his innocence.
Slater was arrested in New York In
1909 as he stepped off the liner Lusi-
tania. During his battle to clear his
name many prominent persons. includ-
ing Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, came to
his aid
After Slater had cleared his name

eminent to consider compensation and
it must be in proportion to the wrong
