GOVERNMENT WINE SUIT
WILL INVOLVE MILLIONS
Courts to Decide Whether 'Pom
ace' Should Be Taxed
CINCINNATI. Nov. 15.—A suit in
volving millions of dollars in internal
revenue tax is being prepared by at
torneys of this city as the result of
a conference held in Washington re
cently with United States Internal
Revenue Commissioner (.'able and Sher
man T. McPherson, United States at
torney for the southern district of
Ohio.
The matter at issue is whether what
is known to the liriuor trade as "pom
ace wine" Is subject to the internal rev
enue tax.
The "wine" is made by adding su
gar and water to the "cheese," or ref
use, after the juice has been squeezed
out of grapes in the manufacture of
wine. Under the United States law,
the fermented juice of the grape Is not
subject to tax birt the fermented prod
uct of grain must pay the internal rev
enue tax.

BRITISH OFFICIALS RID
HONGKONG OF MALARIA
Pesthole of the Orient Cleaned
Up by Colonial Deputies
"WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—Hongkong,
long known as a malarial pesthole, is
being rid of the disease by the activi
ties of the British colonial office.
During the lnst ten years there has
been n steady and substantial reduction
in the number of cases. The British
troops stationed In the colony appear
to be more affected with the disease
than civilians.
The ratio of malarial cases admitted
to the military hospital last year was
D 9 per 1000, against 115 per 1000 the pre
vious year.
The reduction of malaria has been
due to ridding the colony of mosquito
breeding places by making waterways
or ditches, the filling of stagnant pools
and the covering of standing water
with oil.
1000 WHITE SLAVERS
DRIVEN FROM CHICAGO
Many Convicted Since Crusade
Was Begun Last Spring
CHICAGO, Nov. 15.—That 1000 pan
ders have been driven out of Chicago,
besides many convicted, since the cru
sade against the white slave traffic
was inaugurated in the spring of 1009
is the estimate made by Clifford Q,
Roe in a report made to the vhit«
slavery traffic committee for tlie year
ended October 1, 1910.
Through Mr. Hoe the committee has
Investigated 848 cases, of which ninety
one resulted In prosecutions. Of the
persons prosecuted h'fty-one were con
victed. Two additional convictions
have been obtained since October 1.
Prosecutions and convictlona, how
ever, do not begin to measure the good
that thi. work has done, according to
M, Roe. He estimates that about
1000 engaged In the traffic Kit Chicago
prosecution.

FOOD PRICES ALL
OVER U.S. DROP;
ARE GOING LOWER
Bumper Corn Crop and Heavy
Receipts at Chicago Cause
General Reductions
EGGS ONLY TO GO HIGHER
Staples Follow Marked Decline
in Cost of Beef, Pork
and Lamb
(Associated Press)
CHICAGO, Nov. IB.—A bumper corn
crop and unusually heavy receipts <>i'
rattle and hogs at the stock yards are
given by Chicago dealers as causes
of the general decline of foodstuffs
nvi p the oountry.
A decline in prices at tha stool-: yards
was followed by a reduction of fresh
meats and staples. Commission men
here today predicted still lower prices
on everything- except eggs, which they
say are high and going higher.
The following shows some of the re
ductions here in the last week:
This week. l*a-st week.
Sugar * .050.... $ .OsH<B> .(*

A decline since the first of October
is from 60 cents to 75 cents on cattle
in the bulk and the markc: in general
is 50 cents lower than it was a week
ago. Hogs have dropped from $9.65
a hundred pounds on October 18 to
$7.8214.
BEEF AND PORK DROP IN
THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
Washington Dealers Waiting for
Reduction in Other Prices
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—The re
duction of meat prices reported in va
rious parts of the country has struck
Washington. In the wholesale district
the price of beef was reported re
duced between 4 and 5 cents a pound
by the packers. The price of pork
wont down about 3 cents.
Hope was held out that mutton and
veal and other products of the pack
ing houses would follow In the down
ward movement. Retailers have not
heard of the decrease officially except
as to the price of pork.
PITTSBURG HOPES, BUT
HIGH PRICES CONTINUE
PITTSBURG, Nov. 15.—Pittsburg ia
waiting for the reduction of meat
prices to strike this city. Most deal
ers confess that everything points to
an early reduction here and the house
wives and wage earners are scanning
the provision horizon for the first sign
of its approach.
The busy hen of western Pennsyl
vania, however, has decided to take a
short rest and la not turrnlng out
her usual supply, hence the price of
tijtjs has jrone up to 30 cem«.
DECLINE DOESN'T BENEFIT
LOS ANGELES HOUSEWIVES
Los Angeles housewives have not
benefited much from the decline In the
price of meat and other foodstuffs
reported from Chicago. Meat dealers
said yesterday that there probably
would be a reduction of 3 or 4 cents
a pound In the price of pork in a
few days. Lard is now quoted at It
cents, a reduction of 3 cents a pound.
There has been no change In the prica
of beef.
Thanksgiving turkey probably will
be higher than last year, when It
averaged 35 cents a pound. This year
the price is likely to average nearer
37 cents. The consolation offend is
that the 37-cent turkey will be a
home product and better than the
usual grade.
EVEN EGGS TAKE DROP
IN NEW ORLEANS MARKET
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 15.—Beef and
pork pricey are lower on the New Or
leans market than for many months.

year ago. Fresh <kbs are 'ii cents, 5
i r than last year.

ii market has followed that of the
United States in the decline of prices
for meat was Indicated by reports of

sheriff's force here today recovered
more than $7000 in cash and attached
bank accounts estimated at $IS,OUO at
tho Market street branch of the Bank
of Italy and at the Western Metropolis
National bank, deposited in the name
of Wilson B. Evans, absconding clerk
of the farmers and Merchants' Na
tional bank of .l.os Angeles, who was
captured on board the power schooner
Kate about a week ago at Acapulco,
Mexico.
The money seized was $4600 in a
safety deposit box at the Western
Metropolis bank and $L'9f>Q at the Bank
of Italy. The papers were served at
the instance of the Los Angeles bank,
which is owned by the Hollman In
terests.
Attorneys for the bank state that
Bvans, who also went by the name of
Roger Adams, H. Hurnham and H.
Hamburn, confessed the details of his

TALK PLANS FOR
"CITY BEAUTIFUL"
Convention Discusses Methods of
Making Los Angeles Fairest
City in World
(Continued from Tase Onr)
point of the Landscape Architect"
followed by Mrs. Belle Sumner AngiPr
Burn in a forceful and logical discus
sion of present situations. Mra. Burn
deplored many of the present day
nuisances, as billboards, etc., and
urges a general stand against the pul'
lic swimming pool, advocating the
shower bath instead.
J. B. Lippincott suggested a metro
politan park system which is destined
to make Los Angeles in reality what
it now purposes to be—the playground
city of America. Such drives, parks
and amusement centers as Mr. Lip
pincott suggested ho says are well
within reach of Angelenos, and that
already plani are well on the way
which will give a continuous drive
from Elysian park to the pate of Grif
fith park. This road will follow the
tops of the hills and mountains, and
will afford a beautiful panorama .of
city and valley. Mr. Lippincott also
siiKßeats an elaborate system whereby
all the beautiful cities of the southern
coast should be connected by moun
tain drives and boulevards which
would allow easy travel on the top of
the Sierra range from San Luis Obispo
to San Diego.
"The greatest friends the park
system has in Los Angeles today are
the water system and Bill Mulhol
land," said Mr. Lippincott.
Miss Florence Mills in presenting an
argument for the beautifying of the
harbors and water frontage of San
Pedro last evening urged also the need
of having some definite plan carefully
outlined, by expert landscape archi
tects, who should be at hand to guide
the way over difficulties and to enforce
the plans once they are adopted.
To demonstrate the efficiency of
proper plans Miss Mills presented many
views of European harbors, Including
Hamburg, the foremost port of the
world, and Rio Janerio, with its won
derful new harbor quite as beautiful
and as perfect in the way of conven
iences as are tho3e of older and long
established cities.
Mexican coast cities are also putting
pro-it care on the harbors of the Pa
cific.
Captain Hansen followed with some
harbor suggestions, and T. B. Corn
stock of the public utilities commis
sion suggested ways and means by
which the city could plan for better
law* governing communication and
transportation and gave many exam
ples of ridiculous counteracting statutes
and ordinances under which the city
is governed.
In his address concerning . radical
roads and boulevards this afternoon
Dana Bartlctt will suggest some im
provement which will be of great in
terest. One of these provides for the
purchase of property now adjacent to
the Plaza church, to admit of the re
storing of the edific according to its
original plan and a wide parking all
about it. This will be followed by the
suggestion that the great hill beside
the Broadway tunnel be converted into
a vast auditorium with bandstand at
the foot.
Other subjects to be discussed today
include the relation of imprpvement
associations to city planning:, the con
gestion through Immigration, the work
of the public library in civic campaigns,
fire protection, electricity .'iiid streets
of the greater city, all. of Which will
be presented by men who are especially
familiar with the subject, and A. B.
Tienton will give a paper concerning
distinctive architecture for the south
west. _
POLICE REMOVE MURDER
SUSPECT TO COUNTY JAIL
Mob Theatens Negro Accused of
Killing Child
ASBURY PARK, N. .7., Nov. 15.—
Folowlng threats sent by a mob 'to
lynch Thomas Williams, the negro sus
pected of the murder of nine-year-old
Marie Smith, the prisoner was re
tnoyed early today from the local jail
to the county jail in Freehold. The
mob has been scattered and the streets
were compartively clear.
Williams denies all knowledge of tho
crime and from some sources it was
learned that he had apparently sstab
llshed a good alibi. He is being hold
without bail for further examination
and to await the inquest.
The mutilated body of the Smith
child was found in the woods
her home Sunday and Williams, who
had b<«?n missing since Wednesday last,
the day the girl disappeared, was ar
! Sunday evening.
CHURCH'S TITLE TO 6500
ACRES OF LAND UPHELD
BAST ST. LOUIS, Nov. IB.—The
title to 6600 acrei of land In Kaakaakal
commons, St. (.'lair county, was con
firmed to the Immaculate Conception
parish today by a decision of Circuit
Judge Crow.
The Illinois legislature had sought
to Bell the land, the money to bo to the
school fund of Kaskaskal commdns.
The land was granted to the parish by
the French government in 1700.

ARRANGE JUDICIARY SYSTEM
Each County Will Have t)ne Su
perior Court-Delegates Hold
a Night Session
(Associated Press)
PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 15.—Work
ing in throe sessions, the constitutional
convention made a record for progress
today by the tentative adoption of the
Judiciary and executive propositions
after generous amendments to both.
The former proposition has been un
il. r consideration the greater part of
two days, while the eonMdei-ation of
the executive measure occupied the en
tiro attention of the convention tonight
at the first evening session held.
Afer the entire day had been spent
in tearing apart and putting together
again the majority report of the ju
diciary committee, the committee. of
the whole at the conclusion of the
afternoon sessjan recommended the
adoption of the report of the judiciary
system as amended and then voted to
hold Its first night session to make up
for lost time. Thero was much oppo
sition to holding an, evening session,
but after several votes had been taken
the motion prevailed by one vote to
take a recess until 7:30 o'clock tonight.
Comparatively few of the twenty
one sections of the judiciary proposi
tion went through unamended. In ad
dition* three new sections were ap
pended. Over a dozen amendments
were proposed to the section nxlng tho
salaries of the supreme and superior
court judges und the location of the
latter courts. As finally adopted each
of the fourteen counties has a su
perior court.
The salary of the supreme court
judges is reduced from $7000 to $6000.
The salaries of the' superior judges of
Maricopa, Cochise, Pini and Vavapal
counties were fixed at 15000 a year;
Gila, $4500, and all others at $3500.
An additional superior judge is pro
vided for each additional 30,000 addition
to the population of any county, in
stead of 20,000 as reported by the com
mittee.
At the morning session the conven
tion decided to have the state pay all
superior judges instead of making the
county pay half, but that action was
rescinded at the afternoon session and
county and state will each pay half
aa originally provided.
The consideration of the executive
department measure occupied over two
hours tonight, the proposition of an
executive committee being accepted
with a few minor amendments. The
effort to have four-year terms for state
officers was defeated, two-year terms
prevailing, with a five years' residence
prior to election being among the qual
ifications. The measure also limits
the pardoning power of the governor
and flxes the salaries of all state offi
cers.
Mucfc time was consumed at the
night session to secure a reduction in
the salaries of state officers, but only
two were cut, secretary of state and
auditor being reduced from $3500 to
$3000. The total annual payroll adopted
today was almost $100,000.
TUFT INFORMED CANAL
WILL OPEN DEC. 1,1915
President Expresses Amazement
at Work Accomplished on Big
Ditch Since 1909
PANAMA, Nov. 16.—The Panama
canal will be completed December 1,
1913.
This information was given to Presi
dent Taft today while inspecting the
famous Gatun dam.
The official date of the opening re
mains January 1, 1915.
Lieutenant Colonel Goethals desires
one year in which to train the canal
tenders and to get the machinery
working smoothly.
Ships, meanwhile, will be granted
the privilege of the canal, but at their
own risk of delay.
In addition, it was announced by the
colonel, the report that President
Taft's visit was the forerunner of a
request for another $100,000,000 from
congress was unfounded.
The canal will be completed In 1913,
he said, within the $375,000,000 already
authorised.
Th" president was pleased at the
outlook for the early completion and
congratulated Colonel Goethals. He
expressed amazement at the work ac
complished since his visit in Feb
ruary, 1909.
Colonel Ooethals explained that in
formal opening of the canal in 1913
necessitated immediate action on the
part of congress relative to toll rates,
because eighteen months would be re
quired by shipping interests to adjust
their rates to the new routing.
Colons! Goethals is not officially
promising that the canal will be com
pleted in 1913, lest contractors' delays
and supplies interfere, but is sanguine
of accomplishing the feat.
This evening the president briefly
addressed the Americans engaged in
the canal work at a reception siven
under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A.
and the Hed Cross.
Tomorrow he will inspect Culebra
cut and in the evening will dine with
President Arosemena, this being the
occasion of a state functiion.
PARIS IS THREATENED BY
STEADY RISE OF SEINE
PAHIS, Nov. 15.—The river Seine
rose at the rate of half a'centlmer an
hour today. The official statement
that the maximum flood would be
reached Thursday next has not re
assured the riverside dwellers in this
City and in the suburbs, who see the
waters advancing 1 slowly In the streets
bordering the stream and fear another
disaster.
The return of flood conditions has
convinced the government that the
raising of the parapets is but a make
shift measure, and accordingly it will
push the big project of a canal to
divert the waters in times of Rood. The
building of this canal will bo a problem
for years.
