IMMUNITY OFFERED TO HUBERT KITTLE LOS ANGELES, March 10.—Hubert Kittle, former police officer and special investigator for the district attorney's office, now held incommunicado in the Santa Monica city jail on charges of receiving stolen property in connection with the investigation of the biggest Los Angeles crime ring scandal in years, was today expected to accept or refuse an offer of immunity if he would make a complete confession, which it is believed by the authorities, will reveal the operations of a crime ring which had for its promoters former officers.

Harry Jayne, deputy city assessor, and Herbert Oelke, deputy county assessor, turned the matter over to Sleeper today after futile efforts to collect before the circus left Anaheim. The circus was in Santa Ana today. The assessors, who made the assessment because the circus was here March 1 as the law requires, stated the figure was nominal, "less than the value of one elephant." Circus officials stated they were a little hard up right now after being in winter quarters. They said they had spent $20,000 since landing in Anaheim last November. Certain C. o C. members urged the assessors "to forget it." ROTH SUIT UP FOR HEARING TOMORROW LOS ANGELES, March 10.—Whether Herman L.

Men advancing in to entries off the main passage carry a cage containing a canary, the bird giving first evidence of the presence of poisonous gases. Thousands of people poured into the sorrowing little mining town over Sunday, making it necessary to establish deadlines approximately a mile from the disaster. Hundreds of sorrowing widows and orphaned children remained as close to the mine mouth as possible, waiting for their loved ones to be brot from the death shaft. Only spasmodic outbursts of noisy grief occurred and for the most part the women were brave and calm. Mine company officials this morning declined to make an official statement on the probable cause of the explosion, but the general opinion continued to prevail that it was caused by the accumulation of dust. Offers of assistance to the stricken town were received from all sections of the state as well as from points outside. Governor Charles R. Maybee is on the ground preparing to provide immediate relief as required by the families of the stricken miners. Western representatives of the American Red Cross have also issued orders to furnish relief thru the Utah organization.

Czizek, Oakland, Calif., of $4500 damages awarded for failure to deliver a telegram filed at Boise, Idaho. Lower courts held there was negligence because the telegram was never started and stipulations for sent messages protecting the company carried on the blanks did not relieve liability. The supreme court reversed these decisions. BARBER FINED $500 L. Buelna, Plaeontia barber, was at liberty today, having paid a fine of $500 in Justice J. B.
