UNDERTAKING IN RUSSIA
Two Years or Exile Penalty I'm
posed by Edict Seeking to
Preserve Live Stock.
Ry the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.

capable of reproducing.
Anybody, peasant or other, who vio-
hates this edict will be fined 10 times
the market price of the prohibitive
live stock slaughtered.

CONSUMPTION OF
GRAPEFRUIT IS
GROWING LARGER

Consumption of grapefruit this
year indicates a marked increase
over that Of last year, according
TO Norman Lombard, manager of
the Desert Citrus exchange, who
also states that consumption in
comparatively early market in the
Pacific northwest is truly re-
markable. Moderately fair prices
prevail, he said
Exchange growers plan to ship
between 2 and 25 cars during the
coming week and also the week
following.
Present consumption and market
conditions. the manager explained,
are a surprise to those in the mar
keting industry up and down the
coast Conditions are said 10 be
better than any dared hope.
Cold nights are Fastening the
coloring OF the fruit and greatly
increasing the sugar and juice con-
tent. making the fruit of better
quality Warm days and nights
prevalent during previous weeks
have retarded the development of
citrus fruits in the valley
Heavy volume in orange ship
ments. according TO Lombard, have
not affected local growers. Last
years heavy orange distribution,
he concluded. did not affect the
market at all.

COURT DEFERS
MOTION TO SET
ASIDE DEFAULTS

Judge Vaughn Thompson yester-
day afternoon continued the hear
ing on a motion to set aside de-
fault in the case of William Caine
Davidson until next Friday.
H. I. Mulcrevy and Thomas Finn,
defendants, entered the motion to
set aside default, asserting that de-
fault had been entered against
them by surprise, inadvertance and
excusable neglect.
This occurred when Davidson'S
attorney dismissed the case against
numerous other defendants, in
cluding Matthew Brady, San Fran
cisco district attorney, entering de-
fault against Mulcrevy and Finn
Davidson was suing for 100000
damages, charging false arrest.
He was arrested, he asserted in
his complaint, so that he could not
give testimony peIore the house of
representatives subcommittee re-
garding illegal liquor traffic and
the connection of certain banks
with that traffic.
In an affidavit opposing the mo-
ton to set aside default Davidson
claimed tl,ot both Mulcrevy and
Finn had been duly served with
process and summons, and that
their failure to appear before the
court on the date set for hearing
was due to "inexcusable neglect
and ignoring and defying process
and summons.
Mulcrevy, in his position as coun-
ty clerk of San Francisco, was
fully aware of the effect and pen
atty attendant upon the failure of
a defendant to appear in court, as
serted Davidson in his affidavit.
No agreement was made between
the plaintiff and the defendant re-
garding an extension of time,
claimed Davidson. He pointed out
that the defendants signed mo-
ton for change of venue. and that
therefore they were aware of the
case against them.
There was at no time any mis-
take, inadvertancc, surprise or ex-
cusable neglect in the case, claimed
the plaintiff.

says.
The children are those students in that school
whose parents have no employment and as a
consequence the children have little to eat. The
principal of the school, Miss Julia Keen, and
her corps of teachers have devised various
means of financing the undertaking and do the
work of preparing and serving the meals them
selves. All the children are of Mexican paren-
