Martial law has been declared and several men, suspected of being members of the mob of religious fanatics that beat Major Imbrie to death, are under arrest. From some of these suspects it was learned that Major Imbrie was suspected of being a member of the Bahai sect, a religious group opposed to the Mohammedans. The attack was precipitated, government officials said, by a report spread among the mob that Major Imbrie had violated the sacred fountain in the public square where he had driven his carriage to take photographs. SPLENDID PICTURE AT UNITED THEATRE "The White Sin," which opened its So. Calif. premier at the United theatre yesterday and will be shown for the last time tonight, is one of the best pictures seen in Anaheim.

Miss Bellamy, who has a very pleasing personality, outdoes all her former screen work. This picture affords her a wonderful opportunity to display her dramatic ability. The added feature bill is Baby Peggy, the darling of the screen, in her very latest comedy, "Such is Life." The lovers of Baby Peggy will be delighted at her capers.

PERSIA EXPRESSSES REGRETS WASHINGTON, July 21. — The Persian government today presented its formal regrets to the American state department over the slaying of Major Robert Imbrie, American vice consul, by a fauctical mob at Teheran, Persia. The Persian government offered to take any diplomatic action "within reason" to placate the American government for the murder of Imbrie. WARM ARGUMENT OVER BALL GAME Irvine won the second game and series from Santa Ana Commercials, former Anaheim team, at Irvine yesterday afternoon. A record crowd saw an excellent contest. Each team scored three runs in the first and the Beangrowers grabbed one more in the sixth. There was considerable argument over this score and it may be the Commercials will protest the game on account of it. It happened this way: With one out and one on first, a pop fly was hit just back of second base. Huarte, fast Anahelmer, was under the fly, caught it, dropped it to the ground, touched second and threw to first. However, the batter had not run and the man on first remained there. The umpire ruled the batter out but the man on first safe. He scored later. Hurricks went all the way or the mound for Irvine. Salveson, who had been going good for the Commercials until the protested play, was relieved by Billman.

Doheny, California oil magnate, seeking cancellation of the lease of the Pan-American Petroleum Co. of oil lands in naval reserve No. 1, in the Elk Hills district. Pomerene, who arrived here yesterday from Washington, said today the government is ready for action.

Among the works are such well known names as Raphael, Rembrandt, Rubens, Raeburn, Titian, Andrea del Sarto, Constable, Gainsborough, Reynolds and others, according to the owner of the collection, David Shidlaw of London, who announces his intention of moving to Los Angeles in a letter to the chamber. This city is at the present time the home of one of the celebrated "old masters" mentioned by Mr. Shidlaw, the Gainsborough portrait of the "Blue Boy," being housed in the famons library owned by Henry Huntington, railroad builder.

LUIS FIRPO HELD AT ELLIS ISLAND NEW YORK, July 21—Luis Angel Firpo, "wild owl of the pampas," and a dark-eyed Spanish beauty, Senora Blanca Lurdez, officially known as his stenographer, were held at Ellis Island today by immigration officials on a technical charge of insufficient vises. Firpo arrived this morning to train for his fight with Harry Wills, negro heavyweight, at Jersey City, in September. Senora Lurdez, a woman of mystery, Firpo and others of the Firpo menage, were taken off the Pan-American liner American Legion and held at the island. The detention followed three hours of questioning of Firpo and his stenographer. The dark-eyed Spanish girl occupied a stateroom adjoining Firpo's according to passengers on the boat. She frequently promenaded the deck with the man who came here "to make another million" and was constantly his dancing partner at the dancing parties coming over. Both the stalwart Firpo and his chic-fetching black haired companion were dismayed when detained. Firpo protested in his poor English, but to no avail. The pair were held on information received by immigration officials here from Buenos Aires and also from the crew of the American Legion. Some passengers called Senora Lurdez didn't do a bit of stenographic work on the way to New York. Senora Lurdez' black eyes snapped and she was very much flustered throughout the three hours of questioning. She said she was employed as secretary to the man SARGUM PROUTINGS Two years ago, when Roy Mabee was working up to his fling at the lightheavyweight title with Santel, a husky kid from Nebraska asked for a chance to try his prowess against Rey. Many will remember that match as one of the fastest and cleanest matches staged by Mabee. Roy was master that night, but after the match Rey said that the kid was a champion in the making. That kid, Orlando Miller, is meeting Roy again Tuesday evening. We have watched him in many mat battles since that night over two years ago and we know that he is a much improved wrestler. He is a big, likable chap who has given the fans many thrills. He has thrown some very cute men in the last few months. Hackenschmit and Pete Sour are among the mat's best. Hack was a badly beaten man in the last contest. Sour appeared out of condition but nevertheless Miller beat him and might have done the trick with Sour at his best. Miller's last defeat was at the hand of Ad Santel which was over a year ago. The Braun lad has done everything that he has attempted since the Santel match. He should be a big favorite over Roy Mabee Tuesday evening, but Mabeo is a mystery wrestler. In his workouts he has always appeared to be slow and of little endurance. He has none of the earmarks of a wrestler but on the mat he just wriggled out of one hold after another and somehow or other tangled his opponent up into some knot that cannot be untied. Our reasoning is that Miller should win. His age and almost perfect physical condition together HOLD ELECTION ON DISINCORPORATION W. H. Kennedy Jr. Owing to some articles recently published in different local papers, "authored" by those opposed to the disincorporation of the city of Stanton, and reports of a misleading nature published by the same source, wish to make a few statements of facts which may easily be proven by fair, unprejudiced minds. The need for protection against the Anaheim sower farm has passed and there is practically nothing to gain by continuing a farming community incorporated. Our citizens are being taxed $1.00 dirt road tax on the $100 assessment while others pay but 40c. Also 20 cents good road tax not paid outside incorporations. Tax payers also have city clerk, city attorney and other expense that would cease to be a burden under disincorporation. Stanton's incorporated limits lie in three school districts and no greater burden for school buildings can be placed on tax payers if disincorporated than might take place now. No good road districts or paying districts can be formed after disincorporation without the vote and support of the people interested, much the same as now. Now that our need for incorporation has ended, our need may be more justly and equitably administered under county government than under local. At a prior date when part of the ranchs withdrew from this incorporation our lines were drawn to but not including about seven miles of road encircling our town and these people paying taxes to the city are left with little or no road work. Should we not do them justice by allowing their hard earned dollars to go to the county road fund Firpo protested in his poor English, but to no avail. The pair were held on information received by immigration officials here from Buenos Aires and also from the crew of the American Legion. Some passengers called Senora Lurdes didn't do a bit of stenographic work on the way to New York. Senora Lurdes' black eyes snapped and she was very much flustered throughout the three hours of questioning. She said she was employed as secretary to the man who almost knocked out Jack Dempsey for the trip up, and was going back to the land of palm trees as soon as her services were no longer needed. She could not explain why she bought a ticket to Cuba from Buenos Aires. With Firpo and Senora Lurdez were held Miguel Ferrara and Eduardo Carbone, manager of the powerful South American fighter, who not long ago almost won the championship of the world. WEIGHT-LIFTING PARIS, July 21.—The Olympic weight lifting contests were held in the Velodrome today. The first contest was that of featherweights lifting with one arm. Savigny of France, Julierat of Switzerland, and Pereira of Portugal all lifted 110 pounds. Tagging All Bases The Giants had their lead cut to seven games when they lost to the Reds while the Cubs were walloping the Braves. In the American League the Yankees increased their lead to a game and a half over the Tigers when they won a double-header from the Indians while Detroit was idle. The Senators are 2½ games back in third place. Ruth socked out his 28th home run in the second game with the Indians and now leads his nearest rival, Fournier of Brooklyn, by seven homers. Another one of those crucial series will begin today when the Tigers, the Yankees' leadingendant rivals, come to the Yankee stadium. The Cardinals' winning streak of seven games was halted by the Phillies when they won the second game of the two bill, 3 to 2, after St. Louis took the opener, 7 to 4. The Senators rallied in the ninth and won from the Browns, 5 to 4. Yesterday's Home Runs AMERICAN Ruth, New York ... 1 28 Sialer, St. Louis ... 1 7 NATIONAL Hartnett, Chicago ... 2 13 William, Philadelphia ... 1 10 The victory of Miss Wills and Mrs. Wightman in the woman's doubles in the Olympic play was brought about in the good old fashioned American way—grit, just pure grit. In each set the English stars, Miss McKan) and Mrs. Covell, had the Americans facing defeat with a five to two score, and each time the Americans rose to the occasion and pulled defeat into victory. Miss Wills was the start of the play. She was all over the court making difficult shots appear easy. Her form of play has greatly improved on the French courts. If she had displayed such form at Wimbledon she would have been crowned the champion. Joe Simonich, who fights Dave Shade at the Vernon arena Tuesday evening, recently won a very close decision over Young Dudley. Dudley, who started his career out at the Old Sparks place, is one of the best welters on the coast, in fact many consider Dudley the leader of the coast. Simonich is a Montana lad and is considered one of the best welters in the U.S. The Simonich-Shade bout should draw as well as the Shade-Colima match. The match should be more interesting as to wright and have nothing that he has attempted since the Santel match. He should be a big favorite over Roy Mabeo Tuesday evening, out Mabeo is a mystery wrestler. In his workouts he has always appeared to be slow and of little endurance. He has none of the earmarks of a wrestler but on the mat he must wriggles out of one hold after another and somehow or other tangles his opponent up into some knot that can not be untied. Our reasoning is that Miller should win. His age and almost perfect physical condition together with his strength and knowledge of the game should pull the odds in his favor heavily but still, we remember how Roy has defeated odds before. So we will go over to the Tuesday evening match with little idea as to who will be the victor. Manager Jaffray is all smiles. The seat sale has been great and it now looks as if standing room will be at a premium. The boxing preliminaries will start promptly at 5 o'clock. Oklahoma Griffin and Packy Gillette tangle in one of the evenings' four-rounders. This bout should be a dinger, as both boys are clever. Billy Hogan, the hard hitting Long Beach lad, tangles with E. L. Glines. Mr. Glines had better know his stuff as Hogan is a heavy hitter and is in great condition. The Fullerton club has never pulled such a show as Tuesday evening's. Every act is a trump card and the fans are bound to get their money's worth.

W.—A band of blacks, after killing the male passengers and crew, sunk the vessel Douglas Mawson and carried off the women, according to word received here today. An expedition was sent to effect the rescue of the women. LONDON—The Express under the heading "America revives her shipping threat" carries a statement by Vice President Plummer of U.S. shipping board, stating that he is trying to get foreign ship owners to raise freight rates 20 per cent and unless this is done America will have to offer preferential tariffs on imports. Now that our need for incorporation has ended, our need may be more justly and equitably administered under county government than under local. At a prior date when part of the ranches withdrew from the incorporation our lines were drawn to but not including about seven miles of road encircle our town and these people paying taxes to the city are left with little or no road work. Should we not do them justice by allowing their hard earned dollars to go to the county road fund whereby they may get an equitable portion of road work? As the petition circulated for an election for disincorporation included approximately two-thirds of the registered voters we feel the election should easily carry and voters will not be misled by those with financial or personal interests. GRAIN COMPANIES OFFER TO SELL MINNEAPOLIS, July 21.—Thirty-six of the leading grain companies of the northwest, most of them with great terminals in Hinneapolis, today offered to sell their entire holdings, including 1062 country elevators in Minn., No Dak, and Mont., 22 terminal elevators in Minenapolis and 12 terminal elevators in Duluth—an aggregate capacity of approximately 70,000,000 bushels—to the American Farm Bureau Federation, which is undertaking a gigantic extension of co-operative marketing of grain. The offer was made in a letter to O.E. Bradfute, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation and one of the leaders in the new grain handling company, which recently incorporated in Illinois with a capital stock of $26,000,000 for the purpose of taking over five of the biggest grain firms in Chicago, and to the directors of the bureau.
