lished more by the situation In which
It was found and Its surroundings than
by any Indications or evidence upon the
body itself. It was burned Into frag

: bodies taken out today.
The first was found Fhortly after 3

recovered, all burned beyond any hu

On« of th« bodies Is supposed to be

was canpht with many of the other

SOME REMARKABLE ESCAPES
Among the remarkable escapes
chronicled since the erplosion and fire
were those of George W. Long and
crew of engravers. These men were
©n the sixth floor of the building. In
the few seconds Intervening between
the erplosion and envelopment of the
building In flames, all these men made
their way to safety. wh!> the linotype
men and the printers [on the second j
floor were trapped by fire and perished.
Betides Long 1 , the engraving crew
consisted of Huber Bruce, Edward Ball,
Harry Anderson and Charles Seebold.
All went to -work tonight at the tem
porary plant of the Times. Only one of
th«m. Ball, was in any way Injured. He
had a few slight bruises on one hand.
HOW PHESSMEX GOT OUT
Similar remarkable escapes were
achieved by Mark Bentley, chief press
man of the Times, and his assistants.
Bentley and his men were making
ready to run off a section of the Sunday
paper when the roar of the explosion
sounded and the floors overhead broke
and splintered and fell to the floor. The
pressroom immediately was filled by
c stifling cloud of Pmoke and dust.
Walls of flame blocked all the door
ways and ventilators. Bentley said to
day It seemed as If he and his men
doomed to die there in" the base
ment, when one of the men remembered
that a hole had been cut near the side
walk for some temporary purpose. # The
pressmen made a rush for this means
of egress. They found it, despite the
rolling waves of smoke, which blinded
And almost suffocated them, and one
by one they crawled to safety. Less
than 10 feet away, in the hallway .of
the burning building, their less fortu
nate comrades of the linotype depart
ment were dying in the swirl of flames.
Most of those who escaped by other
exits and by jumping from windows
were only slightly injured. Several
appeared today at the office of the
Times to receive the congratulations of
fellow members of the staff. Two or
three were well enough to return to
work.
Charles Lovelace, suburban news
editor, who was one of the few with
Harvey Elder. "Harry Crane and R. L.

time of the explosion, probably will be
confined to a bed for many months.

Advertising Talks
§_T The following story is a good illustration of what adver-
4 tising can do if the merchandise is right.
Jj^h y WCnt nt ° a Store an( * as^ e d f° r a widely
advertised brand of Mocha and Java coffee. She was
siM==&P— told that it was not to be had in that store. "But," said
the clerk, "we have Mocha and Java coffee that is just as good," and
followed up with a long rigmarole about advertised and nonadvertised
goods. As final argument against the advertiser he said: "What 1 right
has he to take the coffee that all dealers sell and advertise it under a
brand of his own? Our coffee is as good in every way as his."
"Your coffee may be good," answered the lady, "but I know
nothing about it. IJo know about the other. Why should I change on
your say so, especially when you can give me no reason except* that v your
coffee is only as good, not better, than that I am using?"
The public will not be fooled sure enough. If your goods and
prices are right, if your , advertising is constant reiteration of facts, you
will win out every time. Advertising will win and keep customers when
intelligence and honesty are put into it and when a persistent and con-
sistent policy is pursued.
Phone Kearny 86 and our representative will call and show you an
advertising service which will help you to win and keep the" confidence of
the people of this city and county.

SAD LOSS OF LIFE

That Explosion Was Work
of Assassins
Statement Expresses Gratitude
to Many Friends Who Con»

L.OS AXGELES, Oct. 2.— General Har
rison Gray Otis, editor in chief of the
Times, has Issued a. statement regard-
Ing the disaster in, which 'the building
occupied by that paper was destroyed
and many lives were sacrificed." He
«aid:
More than all else do I deplore
the sad loss of life. I, with my co
owners In the Times property, can
endure the physical loss which the
destruction of the building in
volved with its expensive plant of
modern printing machinery and all
necessary accessories of an up to
date American newspaper.
we can stand this loss with com
parative complacency and with the
courage and endurance of men \u25a0who
know what it is to meet the ordi
nary disasters of business life. But
we are overcome with sadness by
the fact that so many of our loyal
apd faithful workmen were slain
by the hands of conspirators and
assassins, for this lhfamous deed
was. In fact, an act of assassina
tion. ,
"We can repair the physical dam
age done and restore the great
property destroyed, but we can not
restore life taken away. And this
is the great burden which weighs
on our hearts in the face of this
frightful calamity. "
The work of physically rehabili
tating the Times, already begun
before my arrival home yesterday
afternoon by my t brave, efficient
and faithful associate, Harry
Chandler, will be continued until
the establishment is once more
complete, full fledged and pano
plied for the war which we are
determined to prosecute so long as
life lasts in defense of the great
principles for which the Los An
geles Times and its responsible
owners stand and will continue to
stand.
I want to express here at the
very earliest moment possible my
profound gratitude to unnumbered
friends in the state, in the county,
in the nation, who have already
conveyed their sympathy to us In
multitudes of warmly worded tele
grams and In countless oral ex
pressions showing the profound
and deep seated sentiments of good
will which they bear toward my
newspaper, myself and my co
workers in It 3 production. These
expressions of sympathy Impel us
with the more profound determina
tion to go on in the course which
we have marked out for the Los

as its responsible conductors.
STANFORD PASTOR
SCORES IRRELIGION
Chaplain Declares That Students
Neglect Chapel Services ;
Attacks Morals
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Ocf. 2.—
Is there complete indifference to
religion and absolute neglect of mat
ters - spiritual at Stanford? Rev. D.
Charles Gardner, the university chap
lain, cays there is, and he quotes fig
ures to back up his assertion. Ever
since the opening of college In August
he has taken every possible occasion
to call the students to task for this
alleged indifference, without any
noticeable effect.
At' the annual reception to the fresh
men given by the Y. M. C. A., Septem
ber 10, before 300 men and women, he
said that there were not a dozen men
in the university who were willing to
disturb their slumbers Sunday morn
ings to attend services, although most
of them were less than 500 yards from
chapel. He admitted that some of the
students attended churches of their
own denomination in Palo Alto, but
said that even that number, was shame
fully small.
From religious conditions he switched
to student morals, attacking the men
tal attitude of the men, the prevalence
of tobacco chewing and smoking, the
use of profanity, the telling of off-color
stories, and "the mutilation of the
Queen's English." He said that most
of the men regarded their failure to
attend church as a proof of a knowledge
of the world, and that it fitted In wel.l
with their half cynical attitude.
In his address to the men In Encinal
hall on Tuesday night he confined him
self to the religious condition at Stan
ford, saying:
University students are apt to
criticize' and doubt religion, but the
greatest men in 'this country at
; - tend church services, it is the
tendency here to laugh at the man
who attends church, yet P. C. Gil
man, one of the most famous of
Stanford's graduates, never missed
a Sunday service , while attending
the university.
This address called forth a protest
on the part of Harold G. Ferguson
editor of the Daily Palo Alto, , who in
the issue of September 28 took the part
of the students, saying that the chap
lain had not made his point clear.

discreet, cautious and law abiding. . For
Seymour and Seymour's ways are
known. ,
Though he does not speak of the
details of his policy, he has, declared
that he takes his place meaning busir
ness — police business. . Police circles
aw f alt his coming with suppressed ex
citement for a shakeup of large dimen
sions is expected. Out in the fog belt
there are several patrolmen wending
their weary ways who, until the late
political exigency, were regarded- as
efficient detectives. In their hearts
there Is hope. In the downtown dis
tricts there are: several detectives who
were better 'politicians than policemen.
And with them is a great wonder as to
what is going to happen. Seymour is t
taciturn. \u25a0
No. Winking at Crime
"I do not intend," he said yesterday,
"to talk of policies until I am appointed
chief of police. But," he added, "when I
am appointed chief of police there is not
going to be any winking at violations
of the law."
These have been his views since 18S4,
when he joined the police force, and in
the years that followed they became
known. Therefore, the whisper trailing
through the tenderloin.
"My position," he said, "is a trifle
different from that of the man appoint
ed from the force. I did not ha\*e to
take the place. I had a good one with
the Wells-Fargo people, and when I
accepted the offer to be chief of police
of San Francisco it was "with the un
derstanding that politics would not be
Included. I do not want any of it, and
I will not have it.
"Of course, there will be criticisms
later on. I expect that as part of the
position; but one thing is certain — I am
going- to do my duty. I realize that
the work is big and that a great deal
of judgment is necessary; but, after
weighing the subject in all its phases,
I have come to the conclusion that the
only thing to do is to keep strictly to
business and do my absolute duty as I
see it." •
Overhauling Imminent
That there will be a far reaching and
effective overhauling of the force as it
exists now was made evident from his
statements.
"It is too early for me to say what
I shall do or what I shall not do," con
tinued Seymour.' "That will be given
out when I am chief of police; but no
Intelligent man, who has Investigated
the situation, can fail to see that this
constant changing of heads of depart
ments has brought no good. No de
partment will work well under such
conditions as has marked the police
force. The force did not know whether
its chief of one week would be the
same the next, and a demoralization
of discipline must naturally follow."
During the time that the new chief
was a detective captain he earned an
enviable reputation in running to earth
some of the most active criminals in
the history of the city. He was closely
allied .with all the banking cases and
conducted a number of spectacular
coups. He was active in the famous
Durrant case, In the Addle Gilmore
murder. In the Selby smelting works
robbery and the mint robbery. His
performances were usually brilliant
and earned for himself and the de
partment high commendation.
Began Under Lees^
Seymour, who gained his early
training under Chief Lees and remained
as captain of detectives until he re
signed under Chief Wlttman, is looked
upon by the members of the depart
ment as a man of high ability who
understands all phases of the work be
fore him' and who. by long experience
and a good record, is more than able
to cope with the situation.
At present the men closest to him
are Detectives Ed Gibson, Ed Wren,
Jerry Dlnan and Tom Ryan, all of
whom worked with him in the old days
before he became associated with
Wells, Fargo & Co.'s detective 1 de
partment. A rumor was circulated
yesterday that Captain Colby of the
Portrero station immediately would.be
brought in and placed in charge of the
detective department. Colby's ambition
is well known, and his friendship with
Seymour dates from the time that
Colby was office sergeant under Chief
Lees. At that time Seymour and Colby
were in constant touch.
.When Martin took office he immedi
ately directed his energies tcf the de
tective- department and made many
changes. Among those made detectives
by Martin are Drollet, Germann, Nel
son, Farrell, Jock Sullivan, Daly. Gra
ham, McLaughlin, Cashel, ( Mlnehan,
Crowley, McGowan and Kavanaugh.
These men,-it is understood, will be re
moved from the . detective department
by Seymour. .
- There is, also an impression at head
quarters that Seymour will reorganize
the Chinatown squad.

ELECTION TROUBLES
FEARED IN CUBA
Campaign and Voting Without
American Supervision May
Be Turbulent
HAVANA, Oct. 2.— TVith the approach
of the elections' on November 1, the
second held by the Cuban government
•without. American supervision, there
has been perceptible a growing hope
that, what remains of the' campaign
and the electoral struggle ftself may be
passed without serious disorders.
The first Cuban election, that of 1904,
at which President Estrada Palma was
elected . for .a. second term, was con
cededly carried by fraud. -
It now remains to be seen whether
the administration of President Gomez
Is competent to guarantee the people
of Cuba unimpeachable ejections. That
he will make every effort to do so,
there is no doubt, but it is questionable
whether It is possible to guard against
the results of the bitter factional ani
mosities that are such a marked feature
of Cuban politics. J — :
Most of the candidates for the vari
ous offices have now been nominated,
and in Havana alone there are no less
than five parties in the field.

FURUSETH LIKENS
SAILORS TO SLAVES
Secretary of Seamen's Union
Declares That Laws Rob
Men of Citizenship
Address Before Commonwealth
Club Compares Planfation
Negroes With Mariners
Declaring that American laws robbed
seamen of citizenship and freedom by
making them chattels of the ship's
master, Andrew Furuseth, secretary of
the Pacific coast seamen's union, speak
ing at the Commonwealth club's lunch- i
eon in the Palace hotel Saturday, pre
dicted that in the event of war the
American seamen would refuse to man
the American navy.
"Supposing: you tell them that they
are unpatriotic in not coming to the
aid of the country," he said. "They will
answer that you have done nothing for
them except weld a band of servitude
on them. You have abolished the slav
ery of the negroes to establish the'
slavery of the seaman and now your
people do not man your ships because
your youth will not relinquish his lib
erty and celf-respect by accepting the
yoke of a serf." s,
SEAMEN LIKE SLAVES
Furuseth spoke on "The Status of the
American Seaman" and traced the sea
man's position in society since the ear
liest days. He said that the history of
nations could be seen In the treat
ment of their sailors, as Holland. Spain
and many other nations lost their naval
power when they enslaved their sea
men. England, he said, reached its
highest naval strength when its laws
regarding seamen were liberal,, and at
present she was losing the ascendency
and' would lose it utterly unless her
laws were improved. He continued:
The status of the American sea
man Is exactly that of the negro
on the plantations before the war.
He belongs to the ship like any of
. its property. If the master thinks
he is going to escape he can have
him Imprisoned. If the ship is in
a foreign land and the seaman
leaves, then by srolng to the con
sul all the machinery of the coun
try is set to work to get him, as if
he were an escaped felon. Our
• American law says he is a thief —
he has Btolen his body.
SHIPS WITHOUT SEAMEN
The nation that loses its seamen
loses Its sea power. The ships are
the tools of the seamen and -with
out him they are worthless junk.
Your navy is worth as much as
the men you have In the navy. You
have some 6f the best sailors In the
world in the navy, but you also
have many who should be there
only as landsnaen. And you have
no. reserve of*feood American sea
men to be depended upon. Seamen
' are made, but not quickly. You
may build two battle ships In the
time you make one seaman.
. ; Your American boy will not be
your sailor unless conditions are •
better. The pride of a nation is a
nayy # manned by its own people.
Your sailor knows that he does not
own himself, he knows that he does
not earn sufficient to support a
family. Improve his lot and in 10.
years the sailors — the best seamen
of the world — will be ready to an
swer the nation's call to arms.
