Unfamiliar with existence of the patrol, young Ross sought to escape the man whom he thought to be a landlift, he said. The guard pursued and fired four shots. The chase continued to Los Alamitos, the youth declared, where the mistake was learned. It was on that night on the same road that R.S. Robinson of Long Beach was shot in the shoulder by a guard thought to be named Coffman. Robinson drove to the Seaside hospital in Long Beach...where his wound was dressed. When Robinson later learned he was not being "held up." he took the shooting in good manner and he was said at Long Beach today to hold no brief for the suspected "assailant."

Hoimes) (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, April 5.—Two warnings that sentiment for a third party is sweeping the northwest and may result in Republican defeat next November—or the throwing of the presidential election into the house of representatives—have been served on President Coolidge and his chief political advisers within the last 48 hours. It might be too much to say that Republican leaders are worried, but the reports have profoundly disturbed them. The third party bugaboo was not brot to Washington by spokesmen for any insurgent group, but by two of the regular Republican leaders of the northwest, Ralph E. Williams of Oregon, vice chairman of the Republican National Committee, and Governor J. O. Preus of Minnesota. They jointly informed Republican leaders here that the third party, menace is "no joke" and that if the Republican campaign directors continue to ignore it or treat it lightly, it will be to the party's sorrow. Preus said Sentaor LaFollette could carry Minnesota, Wisconsin, the two Dakotas, Montana, Nebraska, Colorado and possibly Iowa against any candidate either of the old parties is likely to put up. Williams said, in effect that Oregon was in a none too secure position for the Republicans and that Washington was in the same category. In a series of conferences at the White House and with Republican leaders at the capitol they united in urging that due cognizance be taken of this situation "before it is too late." Meanwhile, on top of these pessimistic reports brot by such regular Republicans as Williams and Preus, the Republican leaders had a new worry today in the emphatic warning served last night by Harry M. Daugherty, deposed attorney general, that he does not propose to stand by and see the friends of President Coolidge cry "blame it on Harding" in the investigation disclosures. The former attorney general's attack on Senator Pepper, Republican of Penn., who has recently been one of Coolidge's most constant advisers in political matters...

To this Mrs. Stone is said to have answered: "Go on down stairs, I won't open the door." The man then left the apartment house. LOS ANGELES, April 5.—Police today investigated the death of Mrs. Vera Stone, found beaten and strangled in the W. 11th-st. apartment which she occupied with her sister, Miss Pearl Dunbar, who discovered the crime late last night.
