Richard Benbough of San Diego, state president, presided over the initial meeting. The convention will close tomorrow afternoon, when officers for the coming year will be elected.

A mussel banquet will be one of the evening features of today's program, which include the annual state Elks band and baseball contests. Big interest is being shown in the baseball games between Anaheim and Sacramento. The drill contest, held this morning, was won by the Bakersfield team. Ritualistic honors were taken by the delegation from San Diego. Santa Rosa took the golf contest, which was played off yesterday afternoon. 650 ELKS IN SESSION AT EUREKA A telegram received by Lieut.

In Marin county, however, 2,000 fire fighters were watching carefully against a recrudescence of the flames, which for days and nights have been battled and beaten, only to flame out anew at some unexpected point. Two danger points still existed in this section, a fire on Bolinas ridge, threatening CampTaylor, and the Mt. Tamsalpals blaze, still being in dangerous territory. All of the several endangered towns were believed safe today. In Sonoma county a fire near the Mendocino county line was still being fought vigorously today, but the territory involved is SEEK IDENTITY OF TRIO IN SMASHUP Wills-St. Claire Car Wrecked and Abandoned Near County Hospital Wanted: To know the identity the three or more men who wrecked a fine Wills-St. Claire car on the Hospital road last night. W. M. Nei-mover occupant of the Chandler Removal of Antennae Mast May Have Affected Accuracy of Bearings NORTH ISLAND, SAN DIEGO, Sept. 21: The Reciprocal radio compass bearing claimed by navigating officers aboard the destroyer flagship Delphy to have been received at 8:30 p.m. showing that the lost squadron was south of the Point Arguello light, and which was accepted by the commanding officers as corroborative of their dead reckonings, was not sent out from the land station, according to navy radio operator, P. H. Hamilton on the stand this afternoon before the board of inquiry into the greatest disaster in the history of the American navy. Operator Hamilton who was on duty during the hours immediately preceding the wreck declared all bearings given the Delphy showed her to be to the north of the station. This testimony directly contradicts that given by Lieutenant Blodgett, navigation officer aboard the lost flagship, which was to the effect that at 8:35 p.m. a bearing from Arguello indicated that squadron was south of the point and in the Santa Barbara channel. It was disputed bearing, Blodget testified, that tended to support the navigators' dead reckoning and the steering of a course that drove them on the rocks. The taking down of an antennae mast at the Point Arguello wireless station which may have affected accuracy of radio compass bearings sent out by that station, was related by Lieutenant Commander John Ashley, communications superintendent of the Eleventh Naval District. Captain Craven claimed a bearing was received by the flagship of which there was no record on the log. Commander Ashley testified that the ships, as a matter of practice, took their turns in getting compass bearings. It also developed from a footnote made by the operator on duty that he had "been hitting the ball for 43 hours" when he made the records. The Arguello station men remained up all of the night of the wreck siding in the care of refugees. The wreck having taken place only two miles from the station, Ashley admitted there might have been an error in copying the log. A telegram received this morning by Liout, Blodgett, one of the defendants, from J. R. Stapler, 152 Riverside Drive, New York, evidently a ship's officer, said that two weeks before the disaster, he had re- HOLD TWO AS SUSPECTS OF CAR THEFT F. W. Chaddick and Thomas Nance of Los Angeles, picked up yesterday by Fullerton police on suspicion of having stolen an automobile, are being held pending investigation. It is said the car had no certificate of registration, the two men being able to give no satisfactory account of how they came into the possession of it. It is said that Chaddick admits that he was arrested before on the charge of highway robbery, and Nance on petty charges. L. L. Mennes of Fullerton, arrested on the charge of reckless driving, was released on a ball of $25. R. Candia of Anaheim is being held for investigation. It is alleged that he was driving a car without an operator's license; and had no registration certificate no headlights, no number plate on the rear and no money. FIRST DEPARTURE FROM RESISTANCE COBLENTZ, Sept. 21.—The first open departure from the policy of passive resistance in the Ruhr came today when German government employees resumed operation of the postal and telegraph service under the supervision of the Rhineland commission. Four unarmed Frenchmen controlled the operation of the offices. UMBOIOTI Wills-St. Claire Car Wrecked and Abandoned Near County Hospital Wanted: To know the identity the three or more men who wrecked a fine Wills-St. Claire car on the Hospital road last night. W. M. Neimoyer, occupant of the Chandler ranch about a mile west of the hospital on the road, heard a commotion last night, and then the excited voices of several men, one of whom he judged was under the machine. The car bears the license plate 457,250, but no certificate inside. It has disc wheels and is one of the late models. The rubber is about the only worn feature of the equipment. The right front wheel is bent half off the axle, the top including the windshield is smashed and the body badly dented. The car was going westward and apparently caught in one of the ruts, got off the road and after skidding turned over. It looked as if it might have continued its course for many feet after upsetting. MISS LILLIAN DANDY PASSES AWAY TODAY Miss Lillian Dandy, 20, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dandy, 747 N. Zeyn street, passed away at noon today at the family home.

FLOOD IN ARIZONA PHOENIX, Sept. 21.—Citizens of Holbrook, a small Arizona town $1 miles east of Flagstaff, on the Santa Fe railroad, have wired Governor Hunt for assistance in protecting their city against further encroachment of the Rio Puero, which now threatens to cause serious damage by overflowing its banks. The state engineer has been sent to Holbrook to report on the situation. WEED BANK ROBBED WEED, Calif., Sept. 21.—The Weed National bank here was robbed $1000 this afternoon, when a lone bandit covered the teller and demanded all the money in sight. The teller seized a rifle and fired at the departing holdup man, but missed him. FIRST DEPARTURE FROM RESISTANCE COBLENTZ, Sept. 21.—The first open departure from the policy of passive resistance in the Ruhr came today when German government employees resumed operation of the postal and telegraph service under the supervision of the Rhineland commission. Four unarmed Frenchmen controlled the operation of the offices. The postal and telegraph workers resumed their posts, it is understood, because of the urging of the population. NO EXTRA SESSION The conference of state governors to discuss the enforcement of the prohibition, immigration and antinarcotic laws probably will be held in Washington the latter part of October.

The great appeal in May at the S. auditorium greeted her artists of World renown have been engaged to appear on Address series are: Reinald Werrenrath, foremost American baritone, Among concert singers, Werrenrath's popularity is second only to that of McCormick and, judging from a recent statement appearing in a current musical magazine, Werrenrath also enjoys the distinction of being one of the fe wartists who built up a reputation as a concert singer, and then was called to the ranks of the Metropolitan Opera without any previous oratic experience. So great is the demand, however, for his appearance in concerts, that he has left the Metropolitan Opera and is devoting this entire season to filling concert engagements. The third distinguished artist scheduled for an appearance during the season is Olga Samaroff, the distinguished woman pianist, who records for the Victor Red Seal list, and the local music lovers who have the past only heard her through this medium will undoubtedly look forward to her coming appearance. The fourth attraction engaged for the series is the Philharmonic Orchestra of Los Angeles. This great organization has already established their popularity here and will be a welcome number on the course. Season tickets for the series are on sale at Danz iPano Co.

The certificate formerly issued by the State Auto Trade Assn. is no longer valid. By the close of the week it is expected 700 will have been cited in the five days. Warner declared that it didn't matter whether the person cited owned the machine in question or not; the citation (was good and must be compiled with). Nobody appears to know for what period a certificate will avail to prevent actual prosecution. Justice G. B. Brown said that in his opinion a certificate more than six months old would suffice, but didn't care to commit himself to a declaration that he would prosecute every such case. Captain Warner also fought shy of declaring himself. District Attorney A. P. Nelson asserted that evidence sufficient to warrant prosecution could not be obtained any more, under the new law than under the old.

HUNG JURY RESULT IN THIRD TRIAL Victor Torterice failed to be convicted late yesterday when a hung jury again resulted in his third trial. The case was re-set for trial in October. Torterice is accused of swearing falsely to the age of his cousin, Jennie Patt, whom he married in Santa Ana. The defense contended the evidence that Torterice had perjured himself, was weak. C. N. Monley, deputy district attorney, argued that the accused had lived in his cousin's family and knew her age. AGAIN CHARGED WITH RECKLESS DRIVING Jack Duncan, an habitual offender before, might now be called a characteristic offender, when it comes to reckless driving.
