LOREE LEAVES - ROCK ISLAND Highest Salaried Railway President in the World Gives Up His CHICAGO, Oct. 4.—Leonore Fresnel Loree, the highest salaried railroad president in the world, suddenly re- | signed to-day as executive head of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Com- | pany and the St. Louis and San Fran- cisco Railway. His retirement came at the conclusion of a series of stormy sessions with the owners of the Rock Island properties, lasting through an entire week and at which radical dif- ferences regarding policies developed and failed of adjustment. Loree’s resignation came as a sensa- | tional surprise to the railtoad world. | Nine months ago he was | leave the presidency of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad by the payment of |a cash bonus of $500,000 and a five-year | contract, insuring him an annual sal- ary of $75,000. This contract provided that in the event of his leaving the service of the Rock Island his salary | should continue during the life of the contract and that in case of his death | | his wife should receive it. At meetings of the two companies | held here to-day Robert Mather was | elected chairman of the executive com- mittee of the Chicago, Rock Island and | Pacific Rallway Company, and B. N.| Yoakum chairman of the executive| committee of the St. Louls and San | Francisco Railway Company. Loree also resigned as president and director of the Rock Island Company of New Jersey, and Mather was elected to suc- ceed him. The Record-Herald to-morrow morn- ing, referring to the resignation of L. F. Loree as president of the Rock Isl- and Railway system, will state that Loree’s resignation came after a battle between Loree, supreme executive head of the Rock Island system, Railway, whose methods and policies have been diametrically opposed from | the beginning. The policy outlined an and hereafter he will be the sole execu- tive head of the system, with power subordinate only to the owners. —_——— REVOKE THE LICENSE OF SALOONKEEPERS At a meeting of the Police Com- missioners last night the license of Nason & Hogan, proprietors of a saloon at 42 California street, was re- voked because much stolen property had been found by detectives in the place.

DENIES USING (OMPANT COIN Accused Stenographer Says Money From Inside Tips Secured Luxuries for Her INQUIRY TO FOLLOW | I R S Towa Concern Wrecked and Manager Insane After He and 'Woman Enjoyed Life i Special Dispatch to The Call. IOWA FALLS, Iowa., Oct. 4—With ner employer driven Insane by worry | over the shortage of $40.000 and her | own lips sealed by the advice of her| counsel, Mrs. Maud Hamilton, the pret- ty stenographer, still fatls to produce the much wanted books of the Iowa Lillioett Gold Dredging Company. B. B. Bliss, the insane manager and sec- retary of the company, IS now repre- sented by a guardian. Tremendous ex- citement prevails among the stockhold- ers, but the stenographer continues to serenely enjoy her nun:erous luxuries, while outsiders wonder how she can provide so handsomely for herself on a salary of $60 a month. Mrs. Hamilton decided late this after- noon to make a statement regarding| the shortage in the funds of the com- | pany. She declares that she knew of | the shortage a long time ago and that| she is innocent of any wrongdoing. | She admits that she has spent a great deal of money, but she says she has made it legitimately by scalping the | tock of the company on account of | inside tips which she has been able to secure by reading the mail which pass- ed through her hands. Here is the story of the bubble: Or- | ganized two years ago, the company | sold stock for five cents a share. One | hundred thousand dollars was spent in | machinery. Another company, called the Hawkeye, was organized. Stock went up to eighty cents a share. The | manager and the stenographer gave pink teas, bought diamonds and opera | cloaks and the Iowa Falls people be- gan to talk. A check for $16,000, issued by the company, was refused; the di- rectors were hurriedly called together and a guardian asked for tHe manager. Expert accountants were then employ- | ed and the stock dropped to 1 cent a share. That a complete and unwhitewashed | investigation and exposure of the man- agement of the company’s business is to be made at once was announced to-day by President Charles T. Han- cock, and S. G.

CELEBRATEFLOW WITH BARBECUES Festivities Are Planned to Accompany First Flooding of Lands in Yolo County GREAT AREA IRRIGABLE Canal From Capay Valley Has Course That Brings| Water to Limits of Winters | | AT A S Following the barbecue held at Grid- | ley celebrating the opening of the| Butte County canal, which will irrigate | 215,000 acres of land, there will be an- | other barbecue at Winters, Yolo Coun- | ty, on October 8, to note the flooding of a canal which will irrigate 100,000 | acres of land. The canal begins in the Capay Valley, taking its waters from Cache Creek. | The canal, so reports the California | Promotion Committee, is forty feet in| width and carries a six-foot head of water. It bears almost due south un- til it reaches the corporate limits of Winters. Its course is along the foot- | hills of the Coast Range and it lies high enough to make its waters avail- | | | able for gvery acre of soil to the west- ward. With the exception of a limit- ed orchard area at Esparto, almost all | the lands are now devoted to grain and | some of them have been cropped for | half a century. At Winters the canal | turns eastward. Going through some of the best orchards in California, it | approaches the northern bank of Pu- tah Creek and continues west to Davis- | ville. The present source of supply of water for irrigation in Yolo County is Cache | Creek, which has its rise in the moun- | tains of Lake and Colusa counties. Its | principal and most reliable source is| Clear Lake, which occupies about ! eight square miles of Lake County, and has a watershed of about 420 square | miles. ! It is also fed during the winter and | early summer months by the north | branch of Cache Creek, which, with its | tributaries, gives a continuous flow of | water through nearly eight months in | the year, estimated at from 300 to 1200 cubie feet per second. Clear Lake lies about eighty miles north of San Fran- cisco, in one of the valleys of the| Coast Range at an elevation of 1325 feet above sea level. From the mouth of the land to the head of Capay Valley nature has forced a gorge thirty miles | in length, a natural canal to conduct the waters to the valleys below. The| outlet from the lake into Cache Creek Canyon, for six months in the year, is estimated to carry 500 cubic feet per | second or more. THE OPEN SHOP POLICY | | BUTCHER SHOPS ADOPT “ | | Bakery May Be Boycotted Unless the Trouble With Drivers of | Wagons Is Settled. | The open shop card is now to be| fcund in all but seven of the more im- | pertant butcher shops in this city, and | it would appear that these seven shops will be forced to the wall unless they get into line. It is'now conceded that the union shop policy has been hope- lessly defeated. The cattle butchers met last night, but adjourned after a brief session without making any an- | nouncement. | J. Donald has resigned as busines: agent of the Electrical Workers’ Union. His place was filled by W. S. Rhys, one of the trustees of the union. George Feeley was elected to take Rhys’ place. The bakery wagon drivers employed | at Swain’s are under the ban for re-| fusing to pay fines for violating one of the union’s orde: These men have been boarding w their employer, and this practice is not recognized by the union. The bakers employed in the place have been ordered to walk out and if they refuse there is likely to be serious trouble. i | | | | | | Lakeside Brussels Choice patterns. Per yard. October 12, J. N.
