TIRE COMPANY MAKES GOOD PROGRESS FACTORY WILL BE TURNING OUT AUTOMOBILE TIRES BEFORE THE FIRST OF JANUARY. IS IN EXCELLENT FINANCIAL SHAPE, ACCORDING TO LETTER RECEIVED FROM DIRECTOR Satisfactory progress is being made in the installation of machinery and preparations for beginning the manufacture of tires at the plant of the Universal Tire company. The mammoth Dreyfus Winery building in the southwest part of town has undergone a transformation. Such repairs as were needed have been made, thirty tons of machinery has already been installed and more machinery and supplies are on the way. H. H. Haldaway, president of the company, is now in the east purchasing rubber, steel and additional machinery which will shortly be here and by the first of January the company expects to be turning out one hundred automo-sold as low as 25 cents per share. It is now selling at $5 per share, and we have consummated sales at that price, and that is the lowest price at which it can be bought, either by a director, an officer of the company, an old stockholder, or a prospective stockholder. We believe that, taking our stockholders as a whole, they are as enthusiastic and as satisfied a company of men as you could find by taking 400 people engaged in any line of business together. We are not asking very much credit and we are meeting our obligations promptly. If the above is not full enough in detail please let us know anything further that you would like to be informed on and mention any particular point, and we will take up any feature that you want and explain it to the last detail. Very sincerely yours, Sales Office Universal Tire Co. Percy C. Pickrell, Sales Manager. The officers of the company are: H. H. Holdaway, president, Los Angeles; John E. Erwin, vice president, Los Angeles; R. Ellison, second vice president, Los Angeles; C. W. Fox, treasurer, Ocean Park; W. H. O'Neill, assistant treasurer, Los Angeles; I. Y. Biglow, secretary, Los Angeles. The directors are: H. H. Holdaway, Los Angeles; John S. Erwin, Los Angeles; R. Ellison, Los Angeles; C. W. Fox, Ocean Park; W. H. O'Neill, Los Angeles; C. J. Vollmer.

Mr. Haldaway is in Connecticut purchasing raw material. The city is now laying a water main and electric wires for power and light to the plant. The Haldaway non-puncturable tire which will be manufactured by this plant has been subject to severe tests and examination and always came through triumphantly and fulfilled the expectations of its builders. It cannot be punctured or blow out, and it is claimed that an average run for a tire will be 30,000 miles. That the company is ably financed is indicated by the following letter received Saturday by J. C. Idlor, one of the stockholders. Los Angeles, Aug. 28, 1914. Mr. J. C. Idlor, Anaheim, Cal. Dear Sir: I am enclosing you here with a list of our officers and directors. Our 15 directors have a real financial worth of over $1,000,000. R. Ellison is a man who has retired from active business, but he is easily worth over $200,000, and a large part of that he carries in actual cash in the Los Angeles banks. C. W. Fox of Ocean Park is the treasurer of the Merchants Commercial and Savings Bank of that city. Mr. Fox is also connected with the Marine Street Investment Company. He is besides a large holder of oil lands in this state. D. Graham of Ocean Park is a director in the Merchants Commercial and Savings Bank, and is associated with C. W. Fox in many enterprises. H.

Francis, the man who was so seriously injured at Hansen station by a Pacific Electric car a month ago, died at his home in this city Sunday morning as a result of his injuries. When Mr. Francis was first brought to Anaheim after the accident it was announced by the physicians that he was in a precarious condition and his recovery problematical. He was paralyzed from the hips down and was terribly bruised and cut. Mrs. Francis who was with him, was not so seriously injured, although her cuts and bruises were severe. The accident occurred at Hansen station on July 29. Mr. Hansen was driving an auto wagon for the Anaheim Steam Laundry and made regular trips into that territory. His wife always accompanied him and frequently their little boy was of the party but was not with them on that day. They were returning home in the evening and reached the Pacific Electric tracks just as a car, running at a high rate of speed, came into view. The motorman made frantic efforts to attract their attention, but Mr. Francis appeared not to hear the whistle and drove onto the track. The car struck the rear end of the laundry producers in the no shut down operation European war.

C. W. Fox of Ocean Park, is the treasurer of the Merchants Commercial and Savings Bank of that city. Mr. Fox is also connected with the Marine Street Investment Company. He is besides a large holder of oil lands in this state. D. Graham of Ocean Park is a director in the Merchants Commercial and Savings Bank, and is associated with C. W. Fox in many enterprises. These men are both worth easily $200,000 each. H. J. Lewis, whose residence is now Camp Point, Illinois, but after January 1st 1915 will be in Los Angeles, is a man easily worth over $150,000. During the greater part of his life he has been interested in the importation of high grade catewool sheep. J. W. Walls is interested in real estate in the Imperial Valley, and I think is conservatively worth $50,000. This company began its operations for raising money January 1, 1914. It has today in real tangible possessions conservatively $100,000. It has about $40,000 worth of securities, and these we believe, will cash in over 75 per cent. The company fully expects before January 1st to give us a capacity of 100 tires per day and by the addition of from $500 to $10,000 expended in extra molds our machinery is guaranteed a capacity of 300 tires per day. It is the intention of this company, that as soon as the factory in Anaheim is tested out, both as to its capacity and to the working efficiency of the machinery, and as soon as it is known just what the total output is, we intend to raise money at once to erect one plant which will have the capacity of nine times what our first unit has. Part of our stock in the first stages always accompanied him and frequently their little boy was of the party but was not with them on that day. They were returning home in the evening and reached the Pacific Electric tracks just as a car, running at a high rate of speed, came into view. The motorman made frantic efforts to attract their attention, but Mr. Francis appeared not to hear the whistle and drove onto the track. The car struck the rear end of the laundry wagon and threw or shoved it forty feet partially wrecking it. Both Mr. and Mrs. Francis were catapulted through the front door, taking the door with them. Both were picked up unconscious and remained in that condition several hours after being brought to the sanitarium. Mrs. Francis is now almost recovered, but her husband was not able to survive the shock. He was 60 years of age. Funeral services were held at Backs & Terry's undertaking parlors Tuesday afternoon, the Knights of Pythias having charge. Interment was made in Santa Ana cemetery. Mr. Francis leaves a wife and twelve year old son. The California Vegetable Union will begin shipping tomatoes from this district about September 15. The crop in the north of the county looks well. Manager Meyers estimates the acreage in the Fullerton-Placentia section at 550 and Anaheim also has about 250 acres. Nearly all of the crop will go to the eastern centers: It is too early to state what the market price will be, but it is believed the growers will get good money this year for the entire output. A.

SEPTEMBER 3, 1914 WAR SENDS HOME LOCAL MINING ENGINEER THEODORE DICKEL AND FAMILY RETURN FROM TWISP, WASH., AFTER ABSENCE OF 2 YEARS WAS GENERAL MANAGER—OF A COPPER MINING COMPANY WHICH HAS SHUT DOWN. Theodore E. Dickel, accompanied by his wife and two little boys, arrived here on Thursday from Twisp, Wash., where he has been for two years past general manager of the Crescent Mining Company, limited. The mine is one of the largest copper producers in the northwest, and has shut down operations because of the European war. Other mines producing copper, zinc and lead in that section, as well as in Montana and Arizona, have also shut down. In Washington 5000 men are out of employment, and in the two other states there are likewise as many, if not more men in idleness. The immediate cause of the shut down is a slump of four points in the price of copper while cyanide has jumped from 22 to port millions of dollars' worth of this mineral, which is a by-product of their extensive beds of potassium and sodium salts. The slump of four points in price of copper renders mining operations impossible for it costs 10 cents to produce copper and when one has to sell it at 11 cents, there remains so little margin of profit as to make continuance impossible. Added to this is the great jump in the price of cyanide. Unless the war ends shortly, I see little hope for resumption of American mining business." J. E. VALJEAN DEAD AFTER LONG ILLNESS Veteran Newspaper Man Passes Away At the Age of 80 After an illness extending over many months, J. E. Valjean died at his home in this city at half past eight o'clock yesterday morning. For many years Mr. Valjean was editor and proprietor of the Plaindealer, but failing health a few months ago compelled him to retire from the business, and the plant was leased to F. A. Chamberlin and Earl Abbey. On being released from business cares Mr. Valjean made an effort to check the advance of disease by taking baths at Hollywood and sojourning at the beach, but it had fastened upon him with a death grip and noth himself longs to with wures in thin as features.

BEAUTIFUL ITALY DESCRIBED BY TOURISTS LAND OF SPLENDID MODERN STRUCTURES, RUINS AND RELICS OF IMPERIAL ROME NAPLES, ROME AND RESURRECT-ED POMPEII YIELD WONDERFUL SIGHTS TO TOURISTS Italy, according to Mr. and Mrs. John Hartung, is the most beautiful country in the world—at least the most beautiful seen by them on their recent tour—which encircled the globe, and they missed very few lands of interest to those who go abroad for pleasure and not for commerce. The splendid architecture, the magnificent ruins of former grandeur, the works of art, the relics of past ages, and even the agricultural methods of the present day people, were marvels to the travelers who brought home complete records of the multitude of things seen. They took ship at Alexandria for Naples, but before leaving the capital of Cleopatra visited every place of interest in that ancient town. Alexand producers in the northwest, and has shut down operations because of the European war. Other mines producing copper, zinc and lead in that section, as well as in Montana and Arizona, have also shut down. In Washington 5000 men are out of employment, and in the two other states there are likewise as many, if not more men in idleness. The immediate cause of the shut down is a slump of four points in the price of copper, while cyanide has jumped from 22 to 33 cents per pound. This later commodity is manufactured exclusively in Germany, and is a by-product of the potassium and sodium salts industry in that country. Germany possesses great natural beds of these salts and these are also found in large quantities in Austria. No cyanide is manufactured in the United States, but Mr. Dickel is of the opinion that this industry will in future be taken up here, as cyanide may be manufactured out of ocean salts. The Crescent Mining Company ships its output to Perth Amboy, N.J., and the zinc and lead output of the northwest mines is also shipped to that point where these minerals are refined and placed in jobbers' hands. Germany is a large purchaser of these minerals. One house in Hanover had at the breaking out of the war a contract for installing a thirty-mile electric railway at Buenos Ayres, and now finds itself unable to complete the work. The Germans have the South American field for these electrical operations almost entirely in their hands. Large American concerns now have their representatives in South America, and it is probable this country will largely supersede Germany in securing electrical contracts in that country. Mr. Dickel is a graduate of the mining engineering school at Berkeley, where he graduated with high honors several years ago. After graduation he had several offers from large mining companies in Mexico to go there in the capacity of engineer. He went to Rosario, inland from Mazatlan, 40 miles, and was made superintendent of a large gold mining concern at that point. He left Rosario on account of the Mexican revolution, came home and immediately left for Washington where he was made general manager of the Crescent Mining company. He married his wife in that state, she having been a college classmate at Berkeley. This letter is probably among the correspondence returned by years Mr. Valjean was editor and proprietor of the Plaindealer, but failing health a few months ago compelled him to retire from the business, and the plant was leased to F.A. Chamberlin and Earl Abbey. On being released from business cares Mr. Valjean made an effort to check the advance of disease by taking baths at Hollywood and sojourning at the beach, but it had fastened upon him with a death grip and nothing could shake it loose. He grew steadily worse in spite of health-giving waters and medical aid, and the end came yesterday morning. He was 80 years of age. NEBELUNG SAFE; NEAR GERMAN CAPITAL GUEST OF SISTER TWO HOURS TRAVEL FROM BERLIN, PREPARING TO RETURN MISS VIOLET NEBELUNG BELIEVED TO BE AT LUZERN, SWITZERLAND, OR AT VENICE Raymond Neblung is a receipt of a postal card from his father, Max Neblung, until recently chairman of the city board of trustees, conveying the intelligence that he is safe at Wittstock, two hours from Berlin, where he is the guest of his sister, whom he had not had the pleasure of meeting in 45 years. Mr. Neblung met his sister at the railroad station at that town as she arrived from a visit to the interior. He had not seen her since leaving for this country in 1868, but recognized her immediately. He writes that letters written to his relatives and friends here have been returned to the German government, which allows no scaled messages to leave that country. Mr. Neblung promised on leaving Anaheim to write letters to the Gazette describing his travels, and when he met John Hartung in Berlin said to that gentleman that he had mailed a long letter to this office. This letter is probably among the correspondence returned by years Mr. Valjean was editor and proprietor of the Plaindealer, but falling health a few months ago compelled him to retire from the business, and the plant was leased to F.A.

Alexandria is not as interesting as Cairo, still contains many things worth seeing, notably the lighthouse on the island of Pharos and the catacombs. This is only subterranean tomb in the world that is lighted with electricity, and the visitor can pass through its wierd galleries and gaze into the crypts upon the dust and decaying bones of untold thousands of human beings which have lain there, some of them, since the days of the Ptoleomiles 2000 years ago. On arriving at Naples, on the 16th of May, after a three days' voyage on the Mediterranean, one of the first moves of Mr. and Mrs. Hartung was to visit Pompeii, fifteen miles away, and view the ruins of the city which for nineteen centuries has been sleeping under the ashes belched from the bowels of Veauvius. Much of the city still lies buried and excavation is still in progress, but enough of it has been disentombed to indicate that it was a city of unexamined magnificence where pleasure, sport and sensuality were the chief pursuits of its inhabitants. One of the principal buildings unearthed by the excavators is the theatre where all Pompeians were wont to assemble and witness sports that would probably not be popular in this age. The admission tickets used by theatre-goers were unique, but answered the purpose as well as our printed ones.

He went to Rosario, inland from Mazatlan, 40 miles, and was made superintendent of a large gold mining concern at that point. He left Rosario on account of the Mexican revolution, came home and immediately left for Washington where he was made general manager of the Crescent Mining company. He married his wife in that state, she having been a college classmate at Berkeley. "I think the present European war will open up large opportunities for American capital on the western continent," said he. "The Panama canal will bring us in closer touch with the Atlantic seaboard in South America. The German people have this rich field of operations almost exclusively to themselves. They have large contracts for installing electrical supplies at many points in South America, and now find themselves unable to complete their work. American engineers have gone thither, and two large eastern electrical firms have men on the ground looking for extensions for their business enterprises. It is a most inviting field for American capital, and I look for a large influx of our people to that country. We import little from our neighbors in South America, and our exports there are negligible. All this is being changed because of the Panama canal, and the European conflict opens up to us a most wonderful and inviting field for investment of our capital. We import all of our cyanide from Germany and Austria, and if the war continues for any length of time all American and Canadian mines must close down. We can manufacture cyanide in the United States, and this, I think, we shall have to do, if we are to become independent of our foreign supplies. The Germans ex- in 1868, but recognized her immediately. He writes that letters written to his relatives and friends here have been returned to the German government, which allows no sealed messages to leave that country. Mr. Neblung promised on leaving Anaheim to write letters to the Gazette describing his travels, and when he met John Hartung in Berlin said to that gentleman that he had mailed a long letter to this office. This letter is probably among the correspondence returned to him, for it has failed to reach its destination. Mr. Neblung was in Hanover visiting with Fred Hartung, formerly of this city, when war broke out between Germany and France. His daughter, Miss Violet Neblung, who was a teacher in the Anaheim public schools, left immediately for Tuzeme, and was at latest reports believed to be in Venice. Mr. Neblung had not seen her since she left Berlin, but she is probably attempting to secure a ship for an American port. She is accompanied by several young lady teachers who were touring Germany when hostilities broke out. Mr. Neblung is without doubt in no personal danger, being at his sister's home at Wittstock. He will probably secure a vessel for his return trip some time this month. Reports in circulation early in the week, that Mr. Neblung had been impressed into service by the German army, and was doing mental service in the officers' mess with the advancing troops in France, are laughed at by his son, who pronounces them without foundation. P. J. Weisel was in Los Angeles on Tuesday in the interests of the Studebaker car, of which he is the local agent. A miniature musical instrument entitled the bearer to an orchestra seat, a fish opened the door to dress circle a tiny column meant the owner only paid for standing room, a bird admitted the gallery gods to their aerie, a woman's head meant ladies only, and a skull admitted the dead heads or complimentaries. A number of these relics are to be seen in the National Museum at Naples. The forum, the meeting place where justice was administered, and the amphitheatre, which no doubt was extremely popular with the sport loving people, are among the principal buildings uncovered. Long streets of palaces and beautiful buildings have been exposed. The walls of many of them are covered with beautiful frescoes, paintings and carvings, and a number of panels of exquisite work have been cut from these walls and taken to the museum at Naples. Vesuvius stands close by, still threatening the beautiful valley by occasional grumblings, and some day may pour a stream of lava down its slides and in a day undo the laborious work of the excavators. Mr. Hartung did not climb to the mountain's crater; he was content to view it from a distance. Naples is the chief commercial city of Italy and is more modern than some of the others, but it is also rich in objects of interest. The cathedral is one of the chief attractions. It is filled with beautiful works of art. Here is seen a ceiling painted by Raffaello, the world's most renowned painter. In the chapel is a statute of the Virgin and infant, done in mosaic and gold. In the altar stands a solid silver statute of the patron saint of the church.

Life size figures in marble, covered with veils so thin as to be transparent and show the features beneath, are among them. One is a figure of Christ. These statutes, with their surrounding group of figures, are carved from a single block of marble. The aquarium at Naples is also worth a visit. It is considered tiniest in the world. It is full of strange denizens of the deep. The numerous parks are extremely beautiful and the music rendered by the bands is unequal. The instruments are all of brass as musicians claim the tone of a brass horn is superior to one of any other metal. Rome, the ancient capital of the Caesars, the city that one time ruled the world, is so crowded with objects of historical interest, that the busy traveler who pauses but a few days can only skim the cream and regret the balance. However Mr. and Mrs. Hartung brought back data enough from this capital of Christendom to make a goodly sized volume, St. Peter's church, the Vatican, the castle of St. Angelo, the Collisseum, the cata-combs of St. Sebastian and many other world-renowned objects were visited. The Baths of Caracalla were among the first on their visiting list. The famous baths were built by the Emperor Caracalla about 200 A.D. There are 2000 bath tubs in the immense structure. They are scooped from huge blocks of red marble, and are OLD TIME FRIEND WRITES ASKING ASSISTANCE STOCK VALUED AT $30,000 FOR-WARDED HERE FROM LONDON AS SECURITY UNABLE TO RAISE MONEY ABROAD, CALLS ON ANAHEIM FRIEND FOR A LOAN Herman Dickel this week received a letter from a friend in London, Eng., who visited him here two years ago, and who, although being a man of considerable means, writes that because of the war he finds himself almost reduced to beggary. He adds that he has not had a square meal of virtuals in a week. He forwards to Mr. Dickel a certificate of stock in a Los Angeles investment company which is currently reported to be worth $30,000. He asks that sufficient money be forwarded him to pay his way hither, and this Mr. Dickel will do as soon as he can make arrangements for the necessary exchange. No money can be telegraphed to Europe at the present moment, and it will require a roundabout course to send funds to the man in distress.

The Castle of St. Angelo is also a part of the Pope's possessions. It is connected with the Vatican and is a fortress, or was at one time It was built for protection at a time when it was possible the holy father and his household would have to be defended against enemies. It also filled with treasurers accumulated through centuries. Among others are works in marble by Michael Angelo, and paintings by famous artists. The Ascension, by Raffaello, probably the most valuable picture in the world, is among them. St. Peter's church is so vast and so beautiful that it would take hours to describe it, besides everybody is, or ought to be, familiar with it. Our visitors brought home numerous pictures portraying the beauties of the interior. One showed two rows of niches in the wall, each containing the bust of a Pope. They were all there, from St. Peter down. Pope Plus was alive at that time, but his niche is now probably filled. The church seats 54,000 worshippers. Among other things of interest seen by Mr. and Mrs. Hartung was the ruins on Platine Hill of the palace of Nero, the most profligate of all the Caesars. They also saw the ruins of Julius Caesar's great palace and gardens. They visited the Colisseum, that vast amphitheatre which in its palmy days seated 80,000 citizens who gathered to see men and beasts slaughter each other to make a Roman holiday. They saw the balcony from which Mark Antony made his famous speech on the death of Caesar, which moved the citizens to mutiny and a war that resulted in an empire.

PICNICS AT THE PARK The labor unions of the county will hold a picnic at Orange County park Monday, that date being labor day. A large gathering from various sections will probably attend. The dry federation of the county will also hold a blowout on that day in the same place, speaking, music and sports being provided for entertainment. In addition to this many private parties will probably choose the park for a day's outing. The Santa Ana band will be on the ground. Thirty-five young people were entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Mayhew on Center street Monday evening. The occasion was the birthday of Misses Lizzie Virgoe and Grace Baumgarted and these young ladies were the guests of honor and received many remembrances of the day. Social games were indulged in and refreshments served. as in former days, was one of the show places they visited. Mr. Hartung was particularly impressed by the methods of farming he observed in Italy. Alternate narrow strips of grain and vines are frequently seen. The vines are not cut down each season as they are here, but trained off rows of trees.
