ULTERIOR MOTIVE SEEN
Suprrlntrndcnt of California Insti
tutions Ieclares Amrndment Is
Sought to Banking Act for Sole
Purpose of Deposing Him.
SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 30.-(SpecIal.)
Governor Hiram Johoton. of California,
threatens to bring about a change In th
statutes In order to oust Alden Ander
son. Superintendent of Banks.
Johnson's threat comes aa a result of
a controversy that has raged for some!
weeks between the Governor and to
Superintendent of Banks.
Johnson declares that Anderson Is sub
sidised by the Interests, especially the
Southern Pact lie.
Anderson denies the accusation and
says he has no Intention of resigning,
adding that h has little use for a
"hypocrite."
The Governor says he does not wish to
Involve the state In a lawsuit and, there
fore, prefers that the law be amended
aa an easier and more convenient way
out of the dilemma.
Anderson said lsst night:
Anderson Make Statement.
"Tea. I have read the statement of
Governor Johnson with respect to my
aelf and th otflc of Superintendent of
Banks. I am glad to be assured by the
Governor himself that h wants the
patronage of this office ss heretofore.
So far ss I "had heard, such statements
wer made only by Mr. Llssjer. Th ex
cuse given by Governor Johnson Is that
I am acceptable to Mr. Herrin and th
Southern Pacific Company; therefore a
fit subject to be kicked out. Just how
this conclusion Is arrived at I do not
know. ,
"I never held -a political conference
with Mr. Herrin alone or In the company
with th Mayor of any city In my life;
likewise I never applied for a position
on the payroll of the Southern Pacific
Company or asked to be Ita representa
tive at any time or in any way. nor bav
I ever acted aa auch.
Tie Doubts Johnson.
Th Southern Paclfle has never con
tributed, to my knowledge, one cent to
any political campaign In which I was
engaged and I have never spent sny
money contributed ' by it to elect any
relative of mine to office. If prior po
litical affiliations with th Southern Pa
cific Company and the solicitation of fa
vors therefrom is sufficient reason for
remov'eg a men from public office, how
long will Governor Johnson hold his Job?
"Governor Johnson says I will not
abide by th decision of th Supreme
Court. This Is news to me. I have re
ceived no order from th Supreme Court.
First Governor Johnson proposed to de
pose me by passing a bill placing the
banks and building and loan associations
under on supervision. Then he says
he sent a friend to me requesting me to

The Journey required ten hours to
complete, though, four heavy draft
horses averaging in weight 1800
pounds each, were harnessed to the
conveyance. Several times wh'le trav

over four feet was encountered and it
waa only by heroic work on th part

SALEM, Or.. Jan. 30. (Special.) An
drew Carnegie wlli give $27,600 for the
construction of a public library In Sa
lem, according to a dispatch received
bar from hla secretary, James Bertram,
today. Several months ago the matter
waa taken up by George F. Rodgers, then
Mayor of Salem, but Carnegie refused to
take any action In th matter until he
waa furnished the official figures of

th rapid development and growth of
this place, . he almost doubled bis offer
of IU.0O0. made less than two years ago.
The Salena Library Association owns
a sit for the proposed building on Stato

that the city will take over this prop

day when it became known that Gov

OVER-SEA RECORD BROKEN
Weather Perfect and Feat Would

Try Again First Chance.
HAVANA, Jan. 30. J. A. D. McCurdy,
Canadian by birth but now affiliated
with American aviators, set a new rec
ord today In over-the-water flights, cov
ering nearly 100 miles from Key West
to within ten miles of Havana, where
he was compelled to drop into the sea.
There he remained, his biplane floated
by pontoons, until the lifeboat from the
torpedo destroyer Terry picked him up.
With victory within his grasp, his
goal In plain view, an accident, trivial in
Itself, robbed McCurdy of his almost
won title of conqueror of the Florida
straits. A break In a small part of the
engine, a ruptured crank case, stopping
tho escape of the lubricating oil, neces
sitated McCurdy's descent.
Torpedo-Boat Picks Him Vp.
The descent was mad between tho
Paulding and Terry, the leading ships,
which' were about ten miles apart. The
aviator, when the sound of th engine
told him something waa wrong, instantly
shut off the power. He descended rap
idly, swinging steadily to the water. The
pontoons proved buoyant, McCurdy not
even wetting his feet. The Terry's life
boat took him off and finally he waa
taken aboard the Paulding.
Efforts to hoist the machine on' the
launching platform failed. Grappling
irons finally were used and the aero
plane was badly damaged.
While this work was going on the
Cuban-flagship Hatuey arrived from Ha
vana, carrying President Gomes and
friends She ran alongside the Paulding
and the President shouted his congratu
lations on the pluck of the aviator and
regret for his Ill-fortune. After an
hour's delay the squadron started for
Havana, entering the harbor a few min
utes after 1 o'clock.
McCurdy, landing from the Paulding,
proceeded to the drill grounds at Camp
Columbia, where be gave an exhibition
of his skill, rising 1200 feet and per
forming a variety of maneuvers. He
used a machine of one of the other avia
tors at the meet in progress here.
McCurdy Describes His Flight.
The start from Key West was made
at 7:32 o'qlock. central time, which was
8:05 Havana time, and, after making
two circles, the aviator squared away
on his course. Conditions were ideal, a
faint wind, a cloudless sky, an unrippled
sea. Of the beauty of the scene, Mc
Curdy said this evening:
"Never have 1 eiperlenced so won
derful a sensation as when I rose a
thousand feet and took the course.
Ahead of me was a wondrous mirage;

Woman Who Spread Terror Among
Kansas Divekeepeers Xow Is
Believed Xear End.
EUREKA SPRINGS, Ark., Jan. 30.
(Special.) Mrs. Carrie Nation, saloon
smasher. Is near death, her friends fear.
Her busy life in lighting the demon rum
has' proved too much for her in her later
years. She is suffering from a nervous
breakdown, from which, physicians fear,
she may never recover.
Mrs. Nation collapsed a few weeks ago.
At first it was thought that the rugged
constitution she acquired as a plains
man's wife in Kansas would stand her in
good stead, but she has gradually be
come weaker and weaker, .until today
her friends fear the worst. It is said
that the end may come at any time.
Mrs. Natlan recently abandoned her
light against liquor to take up a crusade
against tobacco, especially oigarettes.
She has toured the country snatching the
little pipes from the mouths of every
one she has encountered, particularly
newsboys. She created a furore in the
Union Station of Denver a year or so
ago by delivering a philippic against
Alice Roosevelt-Longworth, whom she
accused of being a cigarette fiend.
Mrs. Nation began her career as a
public person about 13 years ago, when
she smashed up a saloon in Kansas
which her husband frequented. So great
a furore did that create that she went
throughout the state, cracking costly bar
mirrors, expensive cut glass and terror
izing proprietors in joints.
She was careful, though, to do no dam
age in saloons In those states where
prohibition was not in force, contenting
herself with entering the places and
haranguing the proprietors 'and patrons
on the evils of drink.

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Jan. 30. (Special.)

Bennett, of Willamette, Or., applied to
day to the police at the ceneral station

The boy was sent to the detention home
until the authorities communicated with
his father. Six months ago Bennett
started on a ramble throi'gh the cities of
the Pacific Coast. When lie had "done"
the cities ho took to the country, hoping
eventually to get in line for a remunera
tive Job as a cowpuncher.
Things did not go as he had expected,
however. Jobs for co'n-punchers seemed

lead to the securing cf boundless areas

SOUTHERNERS FIGHT HARD

City Men Have Body of
Xorthern Vote Assured.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 30. (Special.)
Victory is in the air and California's
poll of the House gives record proof.
The margin is small, however,, and
contingencies remain that would seem
to make it the better part of wisdom to
withhold the shouting until after the roll
call tomorrow.
Representative Broussard, of Louisiana,
and M. H. De Young met at the hearing
before the Senate commitee this morn
ing. "We are absolutely confident that wo
will have a majority in tho House," said
the New Orleans man.
We already have it," was the Califor
nian's answer. "Your looks belie your
feelings, then," added Mr. De Young.
"I am not feeling very good today,"
admitted the Representative.
The Southerners freely declare that the
fight is close. The Westerners accede
to this. Tonight both sides say they
may be no more than 20 votes to the
good.
Each Side Loses On Man.
This afternoon came the shock of the
loss of a Northn Democratic vote by
San Francisco. The member is deeply
interested In a candidate for sergeant-at-arms
under the new Democratic con
trol of the House. The Southerners
threatened that. If he voted for San Fran
cisco, the entire vote below Mason and
Dixon would be turned against his man.
On the other hand, a Northern Repub
lican whom New Orleans has counted
upon announced this afternoon that he
had finally decided in favor of the Pa
cific metropolis.
"I think it would take a great deal
more of .our gin fizz Ho clarify my
mind so I could see that the Crescent
City ought to have the fair," he told
the delegation of Southerners that was
waiting upon him.
Shifts Will Come Till End.
How much of this last-hour shifting:
will take place by about 1:30 tomorrow

will begin, is problematic. There will
