WAR-TORN 1ST DIV. WILL HOLD REUNION SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5. — The war-torn first army division will renew memories of its terrific baptism of fire by holding a reunion of 3000 to 4000 of its members during the American Legion national convention here Oct. 15 to 19. The famous division, organized from regular army units, the last of which arrived in France in July, 1917, has planned a program beginning with a reception and dance at the roof garden of the Whitcomb hotel the night of Oct. 15. During the entire week the first division will maintain headquarters at the Whitcomb. None of the 50 reunions to be held here during the Legion convention will be richer in memories to the "buddies" participating than that of the first division which suffered 25,076 casualties, including 4413 deaths in action in the war. After training with the French Chasseurs Alpins in the Gondrecourt area, the first was the initial American division in a sector, the first to fire a shot at the Germans, the first to attack, the first to attempt a raid, the first to be raided, the first to capture prisoners, the first to inflict and suffer casualties and the first to be cited singly in general orders. On Tuesday, Oct. 16, the second day of the Legion convention, the division will march as a unit in the big national ex-service men's parade. The same evening it will hold its formal reunion and banquet at the St. Germain restaurant. Wednesday, Oct. 17, will be taken up with a boat ride around the bay, visiting the 60 or more fighting ships of the Pacific fleet ordered in for the occasion. Sightseeing trips about the city Oct. 18 and 19 will complete the get-together. EXPECT BATTLE FOR RICH WIFE'S ESTATE NEW YORK, Oct. 5. — Instead of a poison mystery, the death of Mrs. Gertrude Gorman Webb, wealthy wife of Charles Webb, a Wall-st EXPECT BATTLE FOR RICH WIFE'S ESTATE NEW YORK, Oct. 17.—Instead of a poison mystery, the death of Mrs. Gertrude Gorman Webb, wealthy wife of Charles Webb, a Wall-st broker, seemed likely to develop today into a bitter and sensational legal fight over the millions she left. Dr. Alexander O. Gettler, Bellevue Hospital toxicologist, has completed his examination of the dead woman's vital organs. His report to the Westchester county grand jury on Monday will be that bichloride of mercury poisoning was found, but not in sufficient quantities to have caused death. This poisoning, the expert's report will show, was introduced into the system thru application and not thru the digestive tract. Relatives of the dead woman do not intend to allow the investigation to end here. Dr. Meyer said that on her death bed, Mrs. Webb told him of frequent applications of "little blue pills and water," which, the physician contends, was the mercurial solution which left traces in her viscera. BRUNER IMPROVES B. E. Bruner, employed at a service station on So. Los Angeles-st., who was painfully injured when an electric drill broke and a piece pierced his left hand, is improving. The drill went almost thru the hand, and the injury is still serious. Why Burn In? Because Orange Blos- Countess de la Taille.

Peerless Market Pacific VALENCIA BRAND PRODUCTS ANAHEIM B MEAT DIRECT FROM PRODUCER TO CO THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. PARTY CHIEFS FEAR REPUBLICAN SPLIT LONDON, Oct. 5.—The outstanding motive behind the retirement of Col. George Harvey as ambassador to the court of St. James is his desire to be on the ground and have a hand in the pre-convention jockeying that will precede the selection of a Republican nominee for the presidency next year. His friends here have no doubt about this. When he returned from the United States a few weeks ago, Col. Harvey was accompanied by Will H. Hays, director of the Harding campaign, and the two have spent much time in going over the political situation that has developed since the death of Mr. Harding. Both Harvey and Hayes, it is said, are inclined to believe President Coolidge is the logical Republican candidate, but thus far they have not committed themselves, and in all probability will not do so for some time yet. They are more fearful of a split in the party than any other one thing. Three months vacation at home during which Col. Harvey saw and conferred with many leading Republicans, convinced him that some careful diplomacy will be required if the Republican party is to escape an interval row that might be fatal to its chances of success next year. The colonels' love of politics is such that he desires to be on the ground when the "picking days" begin. It will be recalled that Colonel Harvey's voice played an important part in the delegation of Harding to Chicago in 1920. Colonel Harvey himself is not talking about his future plans, except to say that his "private business" needs his attention. He recently told friends "When I quit the embassy I am going to return to my own profession—writing. History perhaps."

Dudley, early today officially invited the American Federation of Labor to hold its annual convention in El Paso next year. The invitation is supplemented by the promise of... D. Ruiz, Mexican consul general in El Paso, assuring that the Mexican Confederation of Labor "will certainly hold its annual meeting in Juarez if the American Federation meets in El Paso." "The international character that would be given to these meetings would mean much in bringing about a better understanding between the working men of the United States and Mexico" Consul general Ruiz points out. So far El Paso is the only city actively in the field for the 1924 convention. HENSLEY GRANTED REALTY LICENSE Correcting an impression created by the story in a local newspaper insinuating that M. O. Hensley, local realtor, had committed a grave offense in operating without a license—because the license, applied for in time, hadn't arrived—Hensley today declared that the commission had had no hand in obtaining the evidence against him. The charge was dismissed recently by Justice J. B. Cox in Santa Ana, and Hensley has been granted a license. "As a matter of fact," said Hensley, "information is furnished us showing that the department was induced to act in this case by a local real estate man who prepared and had filed with the department in Los Angeles a complaint in the name of the Anaheim Realty Board, charging a violation of the law. "This was done without the authorization of the board, and commissioner Edwis T. Keiser was notified..."

DEMAND FINLAND PAY FOR SLAYING LONDON, Oct. 5.—The soviet government of Russia had sent a demand to Finland for 500,000 rubles for the murder of M. Lavro, head of the Russian frontier commission, said a dispatch from Helsingfors today. Russia also seeks a mixed commission of inquiry such as investigates the assassination of Italian officials upon Greek soil. Moscow contends that if the murders are caught they should be tried and punished under the Russian law instead of Finnish. The note states if Finland refuses to accede "Russia will take the necessary steps."
