WORKERS, AUTO, FISHING
LAWS EFFECTIVE JAN. 1st
Three important laws passed by the
last general assembly become effect
ive January 1, 1914.
The measures are the workmen's
Insurance and safety
art; regulation, of licensed fishing and
the regulating of measures for auto
mobiles on state highways.
Specres of 'game fish that may be
t*fken in -season and under license are
classified-by the addition to the gam»
laws. * Licenses" for persons operat
ing ..automobiles on the state high
ways are ln the new regu
e latlng act. The workmen's compen
** sation measure, with Its intricate
planfop benefiting all of th"c worklng
mea.or the.state. Is considered by
many the mbst important piece of
lt-«isJa*ion uf the Johnson administra-
STATE A\ IVSI RAXCE AGEXT
The state Is'preparing to become an
inrusance agent, and several indem
nity companies arc making plans to
eAter the field provided for by the
legislation.
. The scope of the act is wide. It Is
applicable to* all save those engaged
ln farm, dairy, agricultural, horticul
tural or vitacultural labor, in stock
and 'poultry raising or in domestic
service.
Except* in cases where gross per
sonal negligence on the part of the
emplpVer is proved, the right to com
pensation Is the only recourse an in
? Jured person may have. .
During the first 90 days following
" f*he accident* the employer must pay
for all njtdical care. Nothing Is to be
paid, by the employer during the first
two weeks of the disability of an em
ploye: he shall receive only medical
attention, but, after two weeks the
Injured shall receiev 65 per cent of his
wages for any period of disability not
I**,tiger than 240 weeks.
illrfH 10 VKAK'S PAY FOR DEATH
In other words, a laborer might be
disabled for almost five years and
•tili'l.e on the payroll of his employer
at 65 per cent of the amount he was
receiving when hurt.
When an employe is killed those de
pendent on him are to receive an
amount equal to three times the an
nual earnings of the employe.
* Jtmj)loyes are entitled to insure
either with the state or with private
companies.
An employer may elect to be his
own Insurer. There Is nothing in the
law to compel a company to take out
insurance, either 'with the state or
with any of the companies.
SCALE OF PAVMERT
When an employer Is his own In
surer he Is responsible for Indemnity
under the act and settles his own
bills.
In cases of accidents causing per
manent disability payment Is made
according to the disabled condition of
the Injured by the following table:
Per cent Pay 657 c Then pay

The new automobile regulation pro
vides a yearly license of $2 for chauf
feurs, and a license of $1 for drivers
of automobiles, which designation in
cludes salesmen, garage men and
others handling automobiles. The
license fee does not apply to the in
dividual who owns and drives his
own car.
The amendment to the game laws
provides a license fee of $1 a year for
citizen nimrods, while foreigners must
pay $3 a year.

The men arrested gave their names as '
Paul Case, 24, and Tom Green, 23. j
Oreen had lost an eye in riding
through the brush. The men had left I
their horses three miles fro mEI Cen- j
tro and walked into town. The hotel j
clerk was not suspicious when they j
came ln and registered at midnight, j
The prisoners said they lived in Los :
Angeles. They had stolen the horses !
on which they rode in El Centro sev- j
era l , days before. They refuse to talk. '
They will be brought to Riverside to- j

MRS. STAFFORD DIES
ON WAY TO TESTIFY
The prosecution in the Coulson mur
der trial received word this morning
that Mrs. Emma Stafford, one of its
star witnesses, died yesterday at Win
nemucca, Nev., while en route to this
city to testify. The death of Mrs.
Stafford is a severe blow to the hopes
of the prosecution.
Mrs. Stafford, wife of a local auto
mobile merchant, was on a joy ride
with Mrs. Kate Gallagher, common
law wife of A. R. Coulson. on Septem
ber 19. the night of the shooting, and
had left her just prior to the killing.
Mrs. Stafford visited Mrs. Gal
lagher several hours after the shoot
ing and it is claimed that Mrs. Gal
lagher said to her, "It must have been
Coulson; I saw his face."
It was the plan of the prosecution
to place Mrs. Stafford on the stand as
the last witness before closing the
Detective Manuel de la Guerra re
ceived th# advices this, morning of
Mrs. Stafford's death.
STACY IDENTIFIES rOI'LSOX
P. K. Stacy, proprietor of the Oak
wood house, 44 Fifth street, was the
first witness this morning when the
case was resumed before Judge
Dunne. He testified that at 4 o'clock
on the morning of September 18 Coul
son registered at his hotel under an
assumed name. Pointing his finger
at the pale faced Coulson Stacy iden
tified lilm as the man who entered the
hotel in a nervous and excited condi
tion and used the telephone several
times in an agitated frame of mind.
He was followed on the stand by
his wife, who identified a revolver
said to be Coulson's, which she found
a day later in a room adjoining that
which Coulson occupied in the hotel.
Eugene Ries, 426 Tehama street,
clerk at the Market street feed store
of Coulson, told the jury that he be
lieved the revolver was Coulson's.
IDENTIFIES GUN
Ries was followed on the stand by
John Kuhls. former partner of the de
fendant. Kuhls said that he was pos
itive that it was Coulson's revolver,
and declared that he could identify it
by a peculiar mark on the handle*of
the weapon.
He told the court, on cross exami
nation, that Coulson had rubbed the
handle with emery paper to erase rust.
Kuhls was on the stand at noon,
when an adjournment was taken un
til 2 o'clock.
Mrs. Gallagher will probably be a
witness this afternoon.
