It was learned also that the Berlin government sent forceful instruc- tions to Wiedfeldt not to participate under any cireumstances “officially” in the Wilsop, mourning: When Ambassador Jusserand, of France, dean of the diplomatic corp, asked all diplomats to contribute to- wands a wreath, Wiedfeldt did so out f his own pocket.

BwWilson’ I one Files May Answer Ex-Premier ; WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-Woodrow ‘Wilson's private files may be used in answer to the controversy now rag- ing between London and Paris over Lioyd George’s charge that Wilson | and Clemenceau arranged a secret pact on Rhineland occupation while! Lioyd George’s back was turned. While Mr. Wilson left no memoirs, | he had a voluminous file of private | letters which he planned to use in| preparing a purely historical and im- personal volume on the war and post- war period. What will now be done with those letters depends upon Mrs. Wilson's wishes. No decision will be reached for the present, it was indicated to- day. ‘Johnson Denies He May Drop Campaign WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—Hiram Johnson announced today definitely that he will not withdraw from the presidential race. “I consider it a contemptible trick that statements are issued every few days from Coolidge headquar. ters intimating that I will with. draw from the race.” said Johnson. “I want to aay once and for all that I am going to put up a brave fight and am going to stay in until the HERE’S MORE ABOUT BONDS TARTS ON PAGE 1 ta.” “From the preliminary examina- tion of Brewer's evidence,” King said, “I am convinced that there is some- thing rotten in the treasury and the bureau of engraving and printing. ‘We must clean it up if the people of this country are to continue to have any confidence in their government. “I think that grand jury action should be taken at on King said that Brewer had the names of several high officials who are involved in the bond duplication. ‘These names will be withheld ftom the public “until time comes for grand jury action,” he said. Brewer claims to have evidence of $1,009,000 fraudulent bonds, and King believes this represents but a small part of the systematic looting of the treasury that has been going on since war time. Representative Nelson, Wisconsin, Oe of the progressive group, who visited the bank vault and examined Brewer's evidence, said the treasury’s claim that duplication of bonds re- sulted from the jamming of the num- bering machine “would not hold water.” The trouble with the congressional practice of keeping the ear to the ot vision.—Norfolk Virginia-Pilot. artment and the | in | A mensage from Wiedfeldt | ¢ in his personal capacity. | ran | Congress is betng appealed to! of} to! sub-! al the!

Doheny’s Sack of Coin Makes Luxurious Home on Desert HREE RIVERS, N. M., Feb. —Engineers today are winding up the $200,000 job of making an Irrigation oasis out of Albert B. Fall's now famous ranch ‘They are already operating a privaty hydro-electric power plant and q 10-mile transmission line. They have tunneled into the Sacramento mountains and tap- ped a subterranean water supply on the old Harris ranch. This ig the ranch for which Fall paid $110,000, using the $100,000 loan from E 1. Doheny for that purpose. From the water supply a ver- tical steel pipe 10 inches in dl- ameter drops 600 feet down the mountain side to the hydro-elec- trie plant. This plant ts said to be the only one of its kind on any private ranch in the southwest. It supplies light for Fall's home, stables and ranch houses. The transmiasion line from the plant operates pumps that draw more irrigation water from the dry river bed. A concrete con- duit system, supplemented by open cement-lined ditches, carries the water from the power plant, irrigating a beautiful valley that lies betwen the plant and Fall residence. | | { { HE power and water system as a whole resembles a big municipal project, with concrete dams, eight miles of 40-foot poles and heavy wires. The project cost $75,000. There are two large reservoirs near the house, one of them being fitted up as a swimming pool, with diving platform and spring board. Fall can sit In a glassedin conservatory and watch his guests disport them- selves in the water. From the reservoir the wnter runs to a pasture which borders a long private boulevard, lined with trees, leading away from the house. The house itself isa large two-story structure, whose lights can be seen for 10 or 12 }— TRIO HELD FOR Charge Two Men and Boy With Theft of Goods With two men and a boy at the city jail in connection with wholesale looting of F. W. 5 and 10-cent store, the police Thurs. Gay had laid a net for several other men who are accused of having alded in the thefts. The three under arrest are Dean Fons, 20, former assistant manager of the store, James A. Cartwright, 16, a clerk, and F. J. Hoffman, 44. Detectives M. C. Scrafford and G. T. Belland of the pawn shop detail have been investigating the case for weeks. They declare that Foes and Cartwright have been looting the stockroom and selling the goods to Hoffman, who operates the Hoffman store at N. 10%rd st. and Yioodiand Park The two policemen seized a truck- a load of goods at Hoffman's store, | which is said to have-been stolen.

The El Paso and Southwestern railway is building a rock breax- water 1,500 fet long, 6 feet high and 12 feet wide, to keep flood waters from cutting thru Fall's land. How much land Fall can water from his pipe line and subter. ranean wells remains to be seen. If he waters 600 acres it is maid he can probably raise $60,000 worth of alfalfa hay a year to feed his cattle.
