The scene was extremely picturesque as the inhabitants of the threatened town carried off all their belongings they eould load into carts.

A ‘SPEAKEASY’ GANE CAUSES TAX MIX(P Present Store Owners Refuse fo Pay Prodecessors’ Bills ASSESSMENTS MADE 0CT. { Rapid Transfer of Title Since Check- up Last Fall Brings Protest From Proprictors Who Are Receiving Tex Statements, An increasing number of protests against payment of taxes -on small stores, grounded on the claim that the person billed is not the owner of the business, is attributed by the as- sessing department to frequent changes in ownership resulting from liquor law prosecutions. In many cases, the ownership of stores has changed several times | since the annual check-up, which takes place each October. The per- son found by the asseasors to be the owner in October, has, in many cases, fetired from business follow- ing his arrest for violation of the liaor laws or has deemed it wise to avold further trifling with the laws and has sold to another, The books in the office of Assessor Thomas Linder show only the owner as of Octoher. 1, and the tax bills are made up from these records. More than 15,000 tax bills went proteats franr owners of small stor restaurants and smoke shops, where traneters of the business had been made since last October. While he regards some as legitithate business transfers, many are considered to be in the group of “speakeasies” where police activity has made changes ad- visable.

Washington, June 4 (M—Presi- dent Hoover is expected in the near future to appoint a consulting board of army and civilian engineers to survey the possilfilities of another isthmian canal through Nicaragua to link the Atlantic and Pacific. The survey, which was authorized in the Edge resolution adopted by the 70th congress with an appropri- ation of $150,000 for the work, will be launched in September under present plans. The board, besidos surveying the proposed Nicaraguan route, will study the need of addi- tional locks and facilities on the Panama Canal. The board will be composed .of three army and two civilian engi- ‘neers. Preliminary data for the sur- very is already being prepared Ly ariny experts. Since the $150,000 fund will be insufficient for an ex- tensive survey, Secretary Good says the civilian engineers probably will serve without compensation. Abont $2,000,000, he estimates, would he needed to make a cemprehensive study of the situation. President Hoover is known to he intensely interested in the ‘estabiish- ment of the Nicaraguan canal.

An official announcement at Cha- pultepec castle said General Satur- nino Cedello, commanding the fed. eral army which has been operating against the Cristeros in Central Mexico, had reported the death of General Enrique Goroztieta, chief of the so-called religious rebellion. Body Sent Home Cedillo said the body had been s[embalmed and was being shipped to Mexico City to be, turned over to relatives. He added he expected since General Goroztieta’s death, to complete pacification of the troubled Jalieco district by June 15. A mes- #age from Joaquin Maro, secretary of war, conveyed President Portes Gil's congratulations to him. Details of the insurgent's death were lacking, but it was believed he had been killed near B8an Julian where yesterday Cedillo reported nine columns of his soldiers had en- veloped the “Cristero” army and inflicted a severe defeat on it. The report of Cedillo added that officers of General Gorozieta's staff had been captured, but that the “Priest, Pedrosa,” an alleged lieu- tenant, still was at large.

Chicago, June 4 (#—The Chicagd General hospital was swept by fire at 1 a. m. today and although 17 patients, several dectors and nurses were in the buildings, as the flames and smoke mounted to the fourth floor, all escaped unhurt. Some were carried down ladders by fire- men. Fire department ambulances moved the patients to other pitals. The fire, which did $25,000 dam- age, started in the laundry room and was confined to one side of the tuilding, which is divided by a fire wall. Chief Fire Marshal Michael J. Corrigan, having in mind the recent Cleveland hospital fire, gave his first thought to Keeping the flames from X-ray films which caused such heavy casualties at Cleveland. Investigation Planned Corrigan said he would start an immediate investigation into the ap- parently careless manner in which the X-ray films were left in a jumbled heap in a room dangerously close to the flames. “If the flames had reached the film, we would have had a disaster similar to that in Cleveland,” he said. Dr. Edward C. Meyer, house physi- cian, said a man had come to the hospital Saturday with an offer to buy the old X-ray films. “The fllms were taken from the vaults in various parts of the hos- pital and placed in the room where they were found pending the man’s return,” Dr. Meyer said. Many thousands of persons watch- ed the fire and the rescue of the patients. Patients Taken Out Twelve of the 17 patients had to be carried from the amoke-filled rooms. Eight persons, in another section of the hospital not touched Ly fire, werc moved from their beds to the elevator doors, in case an emergency evacuation were neces- sary. Mrs. Anna George, a patient on the second. floor, said her room be- gan filling with smoke and that she rang the bell near her bed. “It scemed a ges before anyone came,” she said. Finally a fireman made his way through the smoke and carried me down a fire escape.” Other bed patients related simi- lar experience. Mrs. Lucy Lamp- brockt, mother of a 10-day-old buby was removed from the third floor. Once outside she began screaming for her baby. Firemen reentered the hospital, fighting their way through the smoke o the nursery where they found the infant sound usleep, though the room was fult of smoke and there was a clanging of fire equipment and the murmur of thousands of voices outside.
