NEW , YORK. May 5. Herbert
Hoover in a statement this afternoon
expressed surprise that he made as
good a showing as he did in the Cali
fornia primaries. He said: "I am sur
prised that under the circumstances so
large a vote should have been cast in
California ' for delegates favoring my
nomination, for my friends, in entering
my name, introduced no personal issues,
but asked an opportunity to register a
protest to Johnson's extreme opposition
to any league to prevent war and reduce
armaments. ith a group of amateur
clubs organized in my behalf and only
a month pld they were of course handi
capped in opposing the regular party
organization, but the real situation is
that the people of California have been
much torn between their loyalty and
friendship to Senator Johnson for his
able rescue of the state during his gov
ernorship from vicious corporation con
trol and his too-narrow vision on our
international necessities." ,

Julian Eltinge is due in town tonight
in the form of his celluloid self when
his latest picture, released by Republic
and entitled, "An Adventuress," opens
at the Carson City theater for one
night's showing.
It is reported that never was there
such a melange of fun, frivolity, beauty
and dramatic action as is contained in
this Eltinge feature. "It all happens in
a life-time" is the way Julian Eltinge
regards the work he- puts into the pic
ture. At times the bold Jack Perry, at
other times the coy Mam'selle Fedora,
Eltinge plunges gaily through the film.
Thrills? The picture is packed full' of
them. Eltinge is captured by an enemy
aeroplane, does a loop-the-loop, escapes
in an auto disguised as a woman with
hostile planes dropping bombs all
around him and lots of other fun and
frills.

FREIGHT TO EUROPE
SYSTEMATICALLY ROBBED
CHICAGO, May 5. Officials of the
treasury' department have been for
months trying to trace a gang of thieves
who have been looting United States
exports. From Italy, France, Scandi
navia, England and Argentine come
continuous complaints of the receipt of
freight that has been plundered.
A Massachusetts leather company
consigned a big shipment to Gothen
burg, Norway. Six cases of 640 pounds
1 each, supposed to contain high grade
leather, on being opened were found
to contain American newspapers, coal,
scrap iron and rags, but eacn case
weighed the amount shown in the in
voices.
Six Christiania shoe buyers declared
that they had not received for six
months one shipment which had not
been plundered. - The Grand Shoe com
pany opened today three cases of shoes
from St. Louis. Two supposedly con
taining 120 , pairs of shoes held great
wads of packing paper and only one pair
or shoes.
Einert Lund, a Christiania importer,
received on April 1 several cases of
stockings. Every case was broken and
some were nearly .empty.
James P. Collins, manager for G. W.
Sheldon & Co.. custom brokers, said
investigations show that most of the
stealing is done in transit in the foreign
country from the port to the final des
tination, though some was done aboard
ship.
"It is possible that this is the work
of an international band of experts.
This is indicated by the fact that pack
ages bear traces of exactly the same
method of tampering in Buenos Ayre's,
in Genoa, in Christiania, in Hamburg
and in other ports," Mr. Collins said.
