CHIEFS RI NEW MAINS WILL CUT INSURANCE Four and Six-inch Being Substituted for Twoinch Water Pipe Substitution of four-inch and six-inch water mains on many streets of the city for two-inch pipes is going to save owners of residences and other buildings a tidy sum, according to local fire insurance men.

Stocks began another dizzy climb today, drawing hordes of fortune hunting speculators and investors into the turmoil of the stock exchange. Action centered mainly about steel stocks and stocks of leading motor companies and allied industries. U. S. Steel common acted as pacemaker in its field with a rise to 118 1-4 after a 13-4 per cent dividend had been marked of this stock. Big independent steel companies like Bethlehem, Crucible and Gulf States were not slow in taking up the chase, scoring gains of from 1 to 3 points over Wednesday's close. Leading the pack in the motor stock field as Studebaker with a rise to a new high for the year at 43 1-2 which stimulated other motors and accessory stocks. Trading slowed down in the latter part of the session. NEW CLUE TO HAVERSTICK SLAYING Mexican Gardener Said He Saw Sailor in Death Car A new clue to the slaying Arthur Haverstick, Los Angeles contractors foreman, was fished today by Mike Miran Mexican gardener of Delhi, who told Ed McClellan deputy sheriff that he had noticed a sailor a car which he suspects was one in which the dead man body was found, on the day the tragedy. Substituted for Two-inch Water Pipe Substitution of four-inch and six-inch water mains on many streets of the city for two-inch pipe is going to save owners of residences and other buildings a tidy sum, according to local fire insurance men. In reductions in rates are made intervals on the basis of improved fire protection, fewer fire hazards because of the nature of construction of the building or the business engaged in, etc. The four-inch pipe already is being put in, and bids are expected to be invited shortly by City Council, following a discussion tonight, for the six-inch pipe. The following are the sections of street where the four-inch pipe is being put down or soon will be: Melrose from Center to Santa Ana-st.; Vine, Ohio, and Illinois-ets, each between Broadway and Center; Reesh, from Cypress to Center; Claudina from Chartres to Sycamore; and Adele from Olive to Paulina. All of the lumber yards in the city recently enjoyed a nice cut in their rates and so did the owners of all property on the east side of Los Angeles-st. from the First National bldg., to the Anahiem Ignition Depot, inclusive. One garage in this section actually had $1.00 per $100 or a full one per cent, thrown off its rate. The cleaning up of back yards and alleys was one cause, and complete absence of fires another. Inspection of better chemical detection is also bringing down fires in many buildings. The doing away with shingle roofs and substitution of tar and adhesion or composition, which takes as low a rate as tile, also has saved owners a good many dollars. Sparks fly from shingle roofs, so that a man with such a building adjoining or within a few feet boosts the rate of his immediate neighbors. RUSSIA DECLARES LETTER FORGERY LONDON, Nov. 28.—England's action in repudiating commercial treaties with Russia because of the Zinoview letters has placed the relations of the two countries on a precarious basis, said one of the two notes handed to the British government this evening by Rabovlaky, the soviet charge d'affaires.

In the arrest today in Stock two men and the seizure oferal dies for the manufacture 50 cent and dollar pieces, service agents believe the FINAL MOVE TO CRUSH SMUGGLERS VANCOUVER, B. C., Nov. 28.—With at least three Vancouver liquor-laden ships lying off U. S. Pacific ports and one due to load here this week end, for the Christmas cheer trade, exporters defying U. S. prohibition laws are making a final cleanup before their business can be stopped by the provisions of a new treaty, now being proposed in Washington and to which Canada will be asked to subscribe. Tremendous excitement has been aroused in the close drawn ranks of the rum trade here, by the report that the big move behind the California liquor exposures is the final crushing of the smuggling game. "Exporters who have made fortunes here fear the game is up," said a legal man in close touch with the operations today. "They are now trying to get as much as possible in a grand rally before the lid is clamped on." No fear of fast boats, long guns and imprisonment, effect the exporters nor the men they employ to risk their lives in the battle with blue jacket patrols and night working hi-jackers. "Let the Americans do what they will to put a guard around the Pacific shore and we will get cargoes in just the same," is the boast of one chief blockade runner. "But if Canada takes a hand to stop us, it is a different thing and that is what it looks like. We don't say that the enforced call at South American ports would deal us a death blow, but no doubt there would be other regulations that will take all the profit out of the game." Under existing conditions, the government finds itself unable to smash smugglers use over the stated tonnage they may leave Vancouver indiscriminately, provided the shippers post a bond with the customs equal to twice the value of the clump with a load of vegetation stick's body was found car two miles below Serra coast highway.

Turton, No. Orange-co. distributor of Oakland cars. "Purchase of a motor car is only the first step in the transaction. Every new car that leaves our floor we keep an eye on for a long time afterward—long after the three months' guarantee expires. "Service in this business is half the consideration of the purchase. A buyer can't be left in doubt where he can receive prompt, experienced service on his car. Even if it is a passenger car he may want to use it within a few hours after it requires servicing. "If the car is used for commercial purposes, the need of a good, quick service station is all the more imperative. "Our mechanics come to learn every car well. If it is a used car they learn its peculiarities. "And there is no short cut to experience in repairing motor cars. A man acquainted with a particular make of car can diagnose its trouble in half the time and with perfect certainty.

Chas, Curtis of Kansas, its floor leader. Curtis succeeds the late Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge, of Mass. Sen. Jas, E. Watson, of Indiana. FREE WOMAN IN ILLICIT LOVE PLOT LONDON, Nov. 28.—The case of Charles Ernest Robinson, suing the powerful Midland Bank for $625,000 of the $750,000 blackmail money extorted from an Indian prince, became so technically involved this evening that Lord Justice Darling dismissed the jury and announced he would decide the verdict himself. LONDON, Nov. 28.—Beautiful Mrs. Maude Robinson, whose illicit love affair with the unnamed Indian potentate cost him $750,000 blackmail, was cleared this afternoon of participation in the conspiracy. After an hour and fifteen minutes deliberation, the jury of ten men and two women found the prince, designated as "Mr. A" for reasons of state, had been victimized but that Mrs. Robinson and her husband, Chas. Ernest Robinson, were not involved in the conspiracy. Lord Justice Darlin, the trial judge, after receiving the verdict of the jury, sent them back to consider whether the checks the prince signed were properly endorsed and deposited to the benefit of Robinson. The case went to the jurors at 3:25 and they returned with their verdict at 4:40. The jury was to decide (1) whether a conspiracy existed to mallet "Mr. A," and (2) if so, who were the conspirators. The report of the jury was that there had been a conspiracy because the prince signed two checks in blank when found in a Paris hotel room with Mrs. Robinson. The jury decided he had signed the checks "involuntarily and thru fear." Robinson sued the Midland Bank, one of England's most powerful financial institutions for $625,000, a part of the blackmail money, which he alleged the bank had negligently paid out to others on checks to which his name was associated. WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.—The Republican membership of the senate today completed its organization for the session of congress opening Monday, electing Sen. Chas. Curtis of Kansas, its floor leader; Curtis succeeds the late Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge, of Mass. Sen. Jas. E. Watson, of Indiana, was named assistant leader. A "whip" will be appointed later by Curtis. The action of the conference provoked Senator Ladd to break his silence immediately after he left it. He declared his senatorial conduct will not be changed by the action of his confesses, that he will continue his independence in legislative matters, and that he is "answerable only to the people of North Dakota." "My attitude as a Senator has not been to please the Republican majority here but I have tried to represent the sentiment of the people of North Dakota. My conduct will not be changed by any action of the Republican conference. I am answerable only to the people of North Dakota," declared Sen. Ladd. "I supported LaFollette in preference to the nominees of the Republican party in the last election. Altho the Republican party carried my state by less than 5,000 votes, the state Republican ticket carried it by 15,000, and they were opposed by the regular Republican machine. Two years ago when Sen. Frazier was nominated and elected as a Republican he was opposed by the Republican national committee and its influence was given to the Democratic nominee. This year old guard Republicans voted for the Democratic ticket. If they could not support a Republican nominee, there was no reason why I should. "I see that those who boiled the party in 1912 to follow Roosevelt are now being honored. One of them, a New York state leader, has just been named assistant secretary of the navy. In view of this action of the Republican majority today will cause me no worry. I will continue to represent the people of North Dakota." The Republican rebuke to the insurgents was later characterized as "a piece of vaudeville". By Sen. George W. Norris of Nebraska, who almost invariably has voted with the insurgents, but who was not mentioned in the resolution of conscience. By their action, Norris said, the Republican senators have also read out of the party such ENTENCED TO HANG LOS ANGELES, Nov. 28.—Jerry Garbutt, former Illinois envict was sentenced to hang are today for the murder of Mrs. Prothy Lee Hunn, wealthy Pasama welfare worker and wife of Chicago ink manufacturer.

HEIRESS MARRIES PARIS, Nov. 28.—Ruth Branis, millionaire Omaha heiress, will marry Armand Massart,enchman, at Saint Pierre de Baillet Church at noon on Dec. it was learned here today. Senora Throws Dishes at Him; Asks Police to Lock Him Up At least there is one Mexican in Ballerton who prefers to be in rather than in a "wide house" with a brawling woman." That man is Joe Martinez. A call is due to have come in to the Pulmon police last night from the Mexican district asking an offi's presence. Two sturdy "cops" bonded. Martinez ran to them protection, asking them to him to the jail and lock him that he might get a good night's sleep. The "senora" with whom he was in a dispute forbad the officers to take him, saying leave him there; that she would not touch him. Nevertheless she is said to have hurled a dish at his head in the officers' presence. So the man's plea for protection was heeded, and he was locked up, saying as the iron door clanked behind him. "Let me out at 6 o'clock in the morning. I have to work tomorrow." See Dr. Neth. 110 N. Rush-Chiropractic and Electric Treatments. In view of this the action of the Republican majority today will cause me no worry. I will continue to represent the people of North Dakota." The Republican rebuke to the insurgents was later characterized as "a piece of vaudeville", by Sen. George W. Norris of Nebraska, who almost invariably has voted with the insurgents, but who was not mentioned in the resolution of censure. By their action, Norris said, the Republican senators have also read out of the party such outstanding figures as Chief Justice Taft, Secy. of State Hughes, late Theodore Roosevelt, and "a million others" who have on occasions refused to support the party nominees. The Republicans adopted a resolution barring from future party cancuses Sen. Robert M. La Follette of Wisconsin, defeated independent presidential candidate, and three of his followers—Sen. Smith W. Brokhart, of Iowa; Sen. Edwin F. Ladd of North Dakota and Sen. Lynn J. Prazier of North Dakota. It was decided however not to remove any of the insurgent senators from their committee assignments in the "lameduck" session of congress, altho the resolution as adopted was interpreted as a rebuke to LaFollette and his followers, and as a notice of more punishment to follow.
