drowned; a boy was reported to have
lost his life; many people were driven
from their homes; buildings were dam

Jones, a retired banker of Montecito;
Hugh Spear Haven, a Chicago capi
talist, drowned near Monrovia, and
Iilco Rodriguez, who sank In the flood
waters of the San Gabriel River near
VhIttier.
Mr. Haven, who had come to Mon
rovia to pass the Winter with his
wife, was drowned when he attempted
to jump a storm drainage ditch and
fell In. His body was found with his
right hand caught In the woodwork of
a bridge near the scene of his death.
An unidentified boy was said to have
been swept into the Los Angeles River
and drowned when a cable upon whleh
he had been leaning gave way.
For ten miles along the Rio Hondo,
near Montebello, ranchers were ma
rooned by flood waters which reached
a depth of six feet In their homes,
forcing the occupants to roofs or to
second stories. All were rescued.
The Southern Pacific, the San Pedro,
Los Angeles and Salt Lake and the
anta Fe all suffered from the deluge
of rain which changed ordinarily
sluggish streams to swollen and menac
ing rivers.
Damage to highways In Los An
geles County alone will reach $500,000.

Beach Combers of Bay City Find
Mahogany "Driftwood." -
BAY CITY. Or., Jan. 26. (Special.)

of Its president, Charles H. Moyer. and
Its SO-odd nfflolslG ,
are under indictment here on the
cnarge or conspiring to interfere with
nonunion employes of the- Michigan
copper mines.
When the strike cases were called
in the Houghton County Circuit Court
counsel for the Federation asked for
time within which to make special
pleas and at the same time filed a
motion to quash the Indictments on
the ground the special grand Jury had
beeh Illegally summoned and that Its
deliberations had not been conducted
in secret.
Judge O'Brien announced that he
would set tomorrow afternoon for
hearing arguments on the motion. An

Venae Change Plea Expected.
The Federation lawyers are expected
to renew their demands for a copy of
the testimony before the grand Jury,
made today. Mr. Kerr said that an
attack also would be made on the
form of the Indictments. After this
preliminary skirmish the next move
of the union forces probably will be
an application for a change of venue
in all the Important strike cases pend
ing before the court.
"Moyer, Mahoney and other officials
will be here when they are needed,"
Mr. Kerr said. "The strikers who
were Indicted Jointly with them, with
one exception, appeared today and
were released under the same bond to
return to court next Monday. The ex
ception was Sydney Pault, a striker
who has renounced his membership in
the Federation and has returned to
work in the mines. He entered a plea
of not guilty and furnished other
bonds.
Special Prosecutor Nichols said to
night that he did not take the motion
to quash seriously. He said the law
provided that the Attorney-General of
the state could go before the grand
jury while it is in session. Governor
Ferris appeared before the Jury only
during a recess, he added.
Jail Sentences Given.
Two strikers received Jail sentences
today for carrying concealed weapons
and at the same time Judge O'Brien
served notice that anyone convicted In
his court on that charge would be
dealt with In a similar manner.
Eleven women relatives of strikers
appeared as defendants in strike cases
and pleaded guilty. Three had been
oonvicted in a Justice's Court on the
charge of using indecent language.
Three were charged with intimidation.
All were released under suspended sen
tence. George Males, who was con
victed of assault upon a union man at
the September court, was sentenced to
20 days In Jail. He has been in Jail 46
days.
Mike Knez, a striker, was arrested
today under an indictment for perjury.
The offense is alleged to have been
committed at the inquest into the mur
der of James Pollack, a deputy sheriff,
at which time he repudiated a confes
sion he Is said to have given to Prose
cutor Lucas. The special 'grand Jury

STATE AID NOT DESIRED
CALIFORNIA UNEMPLOYED PROB
LEM COMMUNITY QUESTION.
Labor Commissioner Thinks Public As
sistance Would Draw Idle Men From
Other Places 4O0O Need Help.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26. (SpeclaL)
It would be unwise for the state to
assist or provide work for the unem
ployed, says State Labor Commissioner
McLaughlin In a report to Governor
Johnson today.
Mr. McLaughlin divides the unem
ployed of the state Into these seven
classes:
Permanent residents, who are Idle
through economic reasons, the number
of which Is no greater than two years
ago.
Men Idle on account of strikes and
lockouts, not as many as two years
ago.
Winter residents who have been
driven Into San Francisco by the De
cember rains.
Migratory workmen from the interior
of the state. .
Migratory workmen from other
states, who come to California to
escape rigors of colder climates.
Workmen who come to California be
cause they hope to get work here.
In San Francisco the Commissioner
estimates that there are between 20,
000 and 25.000 men out of work. Of
these from 3000 to 4000 need assistance.
The others are living on their savings.
in los Angeles between 12,000 and
15,000 men are Idle. Most of them are
Mexican laborers.
Mr. McLaughlin does not consider
that the problem is one that will long
be serious. As soon as the rains cease,
he says, there will be plenty of work.
The work of assisting the unem
ployed, he says, should be left to mu
nicipalities, because if the state should
undertake to aid, more men would come
from other states.
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 26. "The line
must be drawn between the men really
wanting work and those who preach
the tenets of the Industrial Workers
of the World, who neither wish work
for themselves nor desire employment
for others, and who preach an anarchis
tic doctrine at variance with organized
government."
Such was" the comment of Governor
Johnson today upon receiving the re
port or btate Labor Commissioner Mc
Laughlin. ,

Surviving; Inhabitants of Starrs In
Constant Dread as Result of the
Thaw Now In Progress.
STORKS, Utah, Jan. 26. With a roar
that could be heard for miles an
avalanche, sweeping down the moun
tain side, today Instantly snuffed out
three lives and seriously Injured three
other persons. Four houses were
ground to splinters. Every tree in the
path of the icy mass was snapped off
at me roots.
The bodies of Mrs. Anna Packovich
and two Greek miners were recovered
shortly after they met their deaths. All
had been trapped in their homes, where
tney were crushed almost beyond rec
ognition.
An hour after the slide came. E. T.
Thorne was rescued six feet below the
surface of the snow. The debris had
packed in such a way that he escaped
Buuurauon. tie suiierea internal In
Juries and a broken leg.
Shortly before his rescue two Greek
ia.uorers were uncovered. Both were
Daaiy bruised and nearly suffocated.
w uen the avalanche started Mrs. A.
P. Webb was standing on her porch
with an infant in her arms and two
children by her side. They fled along
me mountain side, and, although show
ered by flying particles of snow and
Ice as it swept it by, they managed
to nee from its path.
The avalanche descended a distance
of only half a mile from near the end
of the canyon and stopped at the edge
of this coal-mining camp. It measured
sou reet in width.
Tonight the inhabitants are in fear
or further disaster, as an unusual
thraw has loosened the snow, which is
packed from six to ten feet deep on
me precipitous slopes.
Immediately after the avalanche had
run Its course the entire population
turned out with picks, shovels and
sounding poles to recover those buried
beneath. The three dead and three in
Jured were all located with the sound
ing poles and uncovered in less than
an bour.

Executive Confident Prohibition. Will
Carry Washington by Majority
of 30,000 Votes.
SPOKANE. Wash., Jan. 26. (SDe-
ciaL) "The State of Washington will
be voted dry at the November election
of this year by a majority of at least
20,000 votes."
This is the prediction made this
morning by Mayor Hlndley. who has
Just returned from the coast, where
he talked with the Mayors of 11 Wash
ington cities and prominent coast busi
ness men on the present issue of pro-
niDition.
"Even If the three largest cities of
the state, Seattle, Spokane and Tacoma,
should give a majority of 25,000 against
prohibition, I am led to believe after
this visit to the coast the local option
forces will carry the state by at-least
20,000," declared the Mayor.
"I predict that the majority In favor
of prohibition will be more than 20,000,
for I do not believe that the cities of
Seattle, Spokane and Tacoma will mus
ter a majority of 25,000 In favor of the
saloons."
The Mayor pointed out that the state
is now 42 per cent dry and that only 35
per cent of the population of the state
is in the three largest cities, which are
conceded to the "wets."

dress before the Canadian Club.
