Garbed in the sackcloth and sandals of a Carmelite monk, the body of baneja was in an unpretentious suite of a modest Latin Quarter hotel. eral Primo de Rivera was dictator of Spain. The end came in exile in Paris, the same city of exiles to which during his seven years of power he doomed many of his fellow citizens. Daughters Visited Sunday Sunday morning the young daugh- ters of General Primo de Rivera, C: men and Pilar, stopped in their fath- er’s room on their way to mass to ask after his health.

Voting on the verdict to be returned closes at 7 o'clock in the evening. A conviction is generally looked for. All the testimony has tended to show the old building guilty of gross inade- quacy. The penalty in such cases is deprivation of functions and replace- ment with a building competent to serve the taxpayers as they should be served—with assurance of safety, sys- tem and dignity. Only Mistrust Is Apathy. Only one juror is mistrusted. He is Ole M. Apathy. Nobody has been able to say where he stands. Seem- ingly he may fall in with the other jurors and support the courthouse record of having ditched some other cases of the people in the past and he should never have been allowed to take a hand in this matter. Now he has to be reckoned with.

Doheny, today took the stand in her husband's trial on charges of bribery, to tell of the “loan” of $100,000 Doheny Made to Albert B. Fall, former secretary of the interior, in November, 1921. “Mrs. Doheny,” asked Frank J. Ho- gan, Doheny’s chief counsel, “did you ever see a promissory note bearing Albert B. Fall's signature?” “Yes,” replied Mrs. Doheny. She told how the signature was torn from the Fall note by her hus- band just before they departed from New York to Los Angeles.

E. O. Mecklinburg, chief machinist | mate of the U.S. S. Parrott, who re- ceived four fractured ribs and bruises on the face and body, was the most severely hurt. Three Filipinos were arrested. Police described the riot as a “brawl” and “of no importance” and an effort was made to suppress the | facts. No news was given newspapers. Responsibility for the fight was not clear. Although some said it was in- spired by communists, others credited the disturbance to gansgters seeking to retaliate for recent anti-Filipino riots in California. The navy men, numbering about 50 and chiefly petty officers, were drink- ing beer after the baseball game. An agitator mounted a box and spoke to the Filipinos in tagalog, the native dialect. ‘The waiters stopped work and de- manded more money. When refused one pulled a piece of led pipe from under his shirt and began beating Mecklinburg, the nearest sailor. Clubs, Dblackjacks and stones as well as pieces of pipe appeared.

Melting snow in the Heart river valley caused a sharp rise in the stream Saturday night. An ice-jam at the junction of the Heart and Missouri rivers held back the flow and as the result the water was backed up and flowed over the lowlands.
