city engineer. Included several hundred
yards of cement, at IIS a yard, and it
Is said that no such quantity was used.
It is also rumored that la laying tba
Belgian blocks, which are I Inches wide
by 4 inches thick, the contractor laid
them "flatwise." while the specifications
require that they be placed upright The
effect 'of this alleged departure from the
specifications would be to reduce by one
half the number of blocks used. The
thickness of the pavement would also
be reduced In the same proportion.
"Jobbed," Declares Bluer.
'We have been Jobbed." declared E.
W. Rlner, son of R. M. Miner, who was
associated with his father la the con
tract, when aeon this morning. "This
is tba work of some of our enemies.
They made threats before the sewer was
completed that they would hold us up
and keep us from getting out pay, and
they have done it.
Those stone blocks which we at
tempted to replace were put in place
by my men. I went to some of my men
last night and they stated positively
that tbey had placed the blocks be
neath the elevator at the manhole and
that they would be willing to take an
oath to that effect. !
. "I am positive that some of oar en
emies went into the sewer and took out
those stone blocks and carted them away
tn order to Injure ua Why should we
want to leave a place like that which
will cost such a small sum go unfinished,
when it would tie up our money for
such a long period? The whole thing
is absurd."
Rtner Intimated that he could name
the man who bad "jobbed" him. and de
clared that he was one of the con
tractors who bid on the sewer but
failed to get the contract.

That the defenders, stout hearted as
they may be, can hold on for any length
of time, is not even given slight cred
ence by the Japanese officials at this
port. They point out that under the
absolutely withering fire of heavy guns
poured upon them the very walla of the
strongholds will in time melt away as
though disintegrated by giant hands.

COMMISSIONER GRAY
SETS A PRECEDENT
Accepts Ball from a Chinese
Contrary to a United
States Statute.
(Journal Special Berries.)
St. Louis, Nov. 12. A breach has been
made in the Chinese exclusion law which
tfireatens serious consequences If the
action is sustained by the higher courts.
In order to admit Chinese to ball today
United States Commissioner J. R. Oray
violated the United States statute pro
hibiting the release on bond of Chinese
held to answer to charge of being in
the country unlawfully. '
Commissioner Oray accepted a 1500
bond from Jeu Seung a Market street
merchant, who is said to be wealthy,
and was arrested Wednesday night on a
charge of being In the country without
proper papers. The commissioner de
cided that, although the statute pro
hibits accepting ball in such cases, that1
the statute is unconstitutional. In that
the constitution of the United States
entitles All prisoners to ball except in
cases where capital punishment Is pro
vided. The case is without precedent In
the United States immigration records.
PROMOTERS OF BANK
FACE GRAVE CHARGE
(Journal Special Bervlee.)
I .os Angeles, Nov. II. Six months
ago when the most promising canta
loupe season ever known was opening in
the Irrigated southwestern spur of the
Colorado desert, Paul Bodenhamer and
F. S. Miller appeared In the thriving
new town of Coachella. Without a cent
of capital as now develops, they estab
lished the Coachella Valley bank.
Today Bodenhamer, who became the
president of the Institution, Is enjoying
his liberty under 'bonds. Miller, the
erstwhile cashier, is a fugitive from Jus
tice, and is supposedly in the asst. The
bank is wrecked and the people of the
valley will lose practically all the
money tbey had. The concern started
practically without capital and It Is said
the operators cleaned up 1160,000 by the
deal. The assets are nothing.

school will be vacated by the pupils aa
soon aa possible for the new building.

to keep up heating in both structures,
and as there is abundant room in the
new building the change was thought
advisable.

the basement of all the schools where
they are needed. H. Wittenberg stated
that it Is nothing more than "criminal
negligence" on the part of the directors

be used

the lives of tbs children and the schooi
property.
