Two 100 gallon stills and several of smaller capacity were seized by the officers during the first raid ever staged on an area of four blocks known far and wide as the "bootleggers village." Fully as much liquor as was captured, is said to have been hurriedly hauled away when bootleggers were warned of the approach of the raiders by an interim system of lookouts and alarms. A mob of several hundred foreigners followed the police from place to place, muttering threats. The heavily armed officers kept in close formation during the raid to resist an attack or attempts at violence by the mob. 18 MONTHS FOR DRY AGENT LOS ANGELES, April 25.—Francis C.

Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall and for nearly a quarter of a century one of the most powerful Democratic leaders of the country died today. His death, on the eve of the Democratic national convention, due to assemble here in June, created a profound sensation in political circles. It had been universally expected—and conceded—that Murphy would play an important part in framing the Democratic national tickets for 1924. Murphy died at his New York home suddenly shortly after 9 a.m. He had returned only a few days ago from a vacation trip to Hot Springs, Va., and apparently in good health. Death was due to acute indigestion. Murphy was at Tammany Hall last night and seemed to be in good physical condition. He had held a number of conferences with Democratic leaders. History will record Chas Francis Murphy as Tammy's greatest leader and as a Democrat who in his time played a star role on the country's political stage for more than 20 years. His rise to the leadership of the new city attorney, following appointment by council last night. The vote was unanimous. H. V. Weisel had applied for reappointment. Webb is a veteran of the world war, long time resident of Anaheim and an able lawyer. The appointment will meet with general favor.

Steward as city manager, city engineer and street superintendent was accepted; effective May 1. Resignation of M. F. Andrade, deputy marshal, was accepted; effective May 1. Application of J. F.

Ford, contractor for the county, who is grading and placing gravel on North-st., from East-st. to Placentia-ave., had discovered after considerable excavation had been done that the southside of North-st., for about 500 feet cast of East-st., inside the city. Mayor E. H. Metcalf remarked it was unfortunate the contractor hade made the discovery before the work was completed. Councilman Dean Hasson reported that Supervisor Wm. Schumacher offered the city the same contract price as the county Council decided to permit the contractor to finish the work inside the city. It will cost about $300. A letter from local insurance agents protesting the occupational tax which, it was declared, was a burden upon 110 agents in this district, many of whom devoted only part of their time to selling insurance.

MAY QUIT RACE EVELAND, April 25—Suffering from a slight throat infection, Senator Hiram Johnson intimated that his speech before the city club at a noon luncheon here today may be his last before the convention. It was later learned at Johnson headquarters here that the senator had left the city, enroute to Toledo, to fill a speaking engagement in that city tonight.

Nearly Comes to Blows With Baker Failure on the part of George S. Hayes, Santa Ana baker, to pay F. V. Hiernymus $22.50 in wages resulted in Justice of the Peace John B. Cox assessing him to pay a $50 fine on a charge of violating the state labor law. Hayes' belligerent atmosphere was intensified when Hayes and Deputy Dist. Atty. C. H. Mozley verged on a physical encounter. The climax came when Hayes took the stand to testify in his own behalf, telling the jury that during the period covered by the wage claim he was not the owner of the bakery and that the deal was due to acute indigestion. Murphy was at Tammany Hall last night and seemed to be in good physical condition. He held a number of conferences with Democratic leaders. History will record Charles Francis Murphy as Tammany's greatest leader and as a Democrat who in his time played a star role on the country's political stage for more than 20 years. His rise to the leadership of the most powerful single political organization in the country reads like fiction. Like so many of his predecessors in the famous Wigwant on 14th-st., he came up from the lower east side of New York that has produced so many colorful personalities in state and national affairs. The east side is poverty and Murphy came from it. He was a hand in a wire factory as a buyer. Later he quit his job and drove one of the old 14th-st horse cars. From this he graduated into the caloo business, where he prospered, finally becoming the owner of four establishments and it was in this environment that Murphy became absorbed in politics. When Murphy was a youth he was a ball player of considerable neighborhood fame. The East Side in those days had high respect for physical prowess as well as political.

Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, April 25.—Unfurling the battle flag of insurgency, senate progressives today turn their heavy siege guns on both the Republican and Democratic tax reduction bills. The progressives, led by Senator Brookhart, Republican of Iowa, launched a counter offensive with a plan which proposed surtax rates even higher than the Democratic maximum of forty per cent on incomes of more than $600,000. The insurgents, numbering between 12 and 14 senators, pledged itself to a surtax minimum of 50 per cent on incomes of $200,000 and over, the same as in the present law, Brookhart announced. The Democratic normal rates of two per cent on incomes up to $4000 four per cent between $4,000 and $8,000, and six per cent over $8,000, have been accepted, however, by the progressives, he added. "The Mellon tax rates are doomed to certain defeat in the senate" said Senator Brookhart. "We are organized to fight to the finish who knew them personally." The earlier testimony of the day confirmed the reports already published as the investigation proceeded, following the theft. William Abernathy, brother of Abernathy, and who received the checks at Lutesville, Mo., testified to taking them to W. A. Butler, cashier of the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank of Lutesville, who cashed them Butler testified to the same effect. Milton Carlson, handwriting expert of Los Angeles, identified the chiography of about 15 different persons concerned in one way or another with the loot. Postoffice Inspector F. E. Jarvis testified to the finding of $5570 in currency in the back yard at Torrance of J. U. Hemml, former Anaheim attorney. MUST GET OUT OF BUSES At Orange-co quarantine points, stage passengers as well as all other motorists were being compelled to get out and step into disinfectant. One young woman from Whittier refused to comply. She was permitted to proceed but guards reported her name to Horticultural Commissioner Brock. It was stated she may face arrest. Railroads are being asked to place mats containing disinfectant in their stations and P. E. cars today had such mats on their doorsteps. Anaheim city council last night was requested by federal authorities to cook all garbage before permitting it to leave the city for the Bastanchury ranch where it is fed hogs. The Bastanchury ranch has been coking the goatbage but federal officers claimed the transportation of the uncooked garbage was a menace. To do this will require considerable expense for fitting up tanks and steam coils at the municipal power plant where the steam can be obtained. The garbage should be cooked 30 minutes at temperature of 170 degrees. It would probably be cheaper to burn the garbage for which the Bastanchury ranch pays $100 per month. Council will see how far the ranch company will go in co-operating. It was also pointed out that the garbage must be hauled considerable distance, in some cases, to get it to the city power plant. Innocent violations of the foot and mouth quarantine regulations is costing the lives of numerous household pets, it was stated today by Charles C. Collins, deputy horticultural commissioner. These violations, he said, occur in connection with the regulation prohibiting animals from running at large. Many of these are shot daily by the humane officer and face with the alternative accepting offers involving huge amounts of cash, in most cases far than could have been obeyed for the acreage as orange almond groves, or declining in hope, likely to bear fruit, that groves would be far more viable for sub-division development. The first well of the Standard declared today to be at 4600 and still in blue shale. Attention in Cypress is in with the report that the Old Well is "in a little some better than blue shale," as prominent businessman put it was also reported that the casing would be put in today tomorrow. More of it arrived. The putting in of the casing being interpreted by the opener that oil has been struck well, however, is not much 3400 feet deep. Brookhurst well of the Old Oil Co. was said today to 2400 to 3500 feet. Information on all three fells, ever, is uncertain because of fact that the operators and officers themselves are sitting and saying nothing.

Jenson was an illiterate man having been brought up in poverty. He learned his letters while riding the plains, studying the Bible.

It was indicated that Forbes' defense would be that the sale of property at Perryville, Md., upon which the case is based, was ordered by the late President Harding. LIFT QUARANTINES SACSAMENTO, April 25. The rigid hoof and mouth disease quarantines against Marion, Solano, Sonoma and part of Napa counties, were lifted today. This action followed receipt by Dr. U. G. Houck, commander of the federal forces, of a telegram from Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, stating the four bay counties had been placed in the "modified area." FOUR FRESH OUTBREAKS LOS ANGELES, April 25. Quarantine authorities today were faced with four fresh outbreaks of the hoof and mouth disease in Los Angeles county. The malady was reported to have infected herds at Van Nuys, Lankershim, Cudahy and Workman Station. With nine other cases of the disease reported in the county during the last 48 hours, it was announced additional federal inspectors would be brot here and more stringent quarantine regulations put into effect.
