FRENCH JURIST AND
tfURSE MURDERED

by Automobile Bandits.
Paris France. Feb. 5. Edouard Pel-
tier a high official of the French de-
partment of justice was murdered in
ins residence here today. A woman
nurse. wo was attending him was
The double murder is believed to
have been committed by an uncaptured
.Tinii at the saner of automobile
bandits whose trial is now going on
It is supposed that the crime was
Intended as an act of vengeance and
warning. . ... . . i.
Peltier was formerly eltfef of the
bureau of pardons at the ministry of
justice but had been Jn ill health for
some time. He was a man of con-
siderable wealth.
He was found strangled in bis chair
in his library. The nurse's body lay
in another room "where she bad from
all appearances been hacked to pieces
with an ax.
An investigation by the poliee of
the young woman's past has given-
rise to the theory that she and tHfe
murderer were associated with the
'demon chauffeur" Bonnot and his
sang. It is thought she admitted the
murderer to the house and he after
strangling Peltier made an end of the
sole witness. About $1000 cash was
stolen.
ATTORNEY DARROW
GRILLS HIS ACCUSER
Bert Franklin (.YasiltH He Obtained Im-
munity After Bribing Jury By
Testifying Against Darren-.
Los Angeles. Calif. Feb. S. Again
acting as his own counsel Clarence
P Harrow former chief counsel for
the McNavtra brothers cross ex-
amined Bert Franklin today and ob-
tained an admission that Franklin.
his quondam chief "investigator" in
the dynamite trial had procured Im-
munity for testifying against.
Franklin admitted he had pleaded
puilt.v to having bribed Robert Bata
the McNamara juror fpr the corrup-
tion of whom Darrow Is now on trial
and that he also had been "exempted
from punishment for testifying against
Darrow in the case growing out of the
alleged bribery of George N. Lockwood
a McNamara venireman. Darrow was
tried several months ago on the Lock-
wood charge and was acquitted.
Franklin declared his immunity was
a. "matter of opinion" but at length
accepted a stipulation made by assist-
ant district attorney Joseph Ford that
be had obtained immunity. The im-4
rnunity feature was credited with hav-
ing exercised great influence with the
jury which acquitted Darrow in the
first trial.
FRENCH BANKER AGAIN DELAY
BIG LOAN TO CHINA.
New Yorfc. N. Y Feb. 5. Confirma-
tion of reports from Pekin of a further
hitch in the Chinese loan negotiations
was received by American representa-
tives of the syndicate today. Some of
the objections advanced by the French
bankers were unexpected it was said
but these the American bankers
thought probably will be sustained be-
cause of the predominance of French
interests in the proposed loan.
It appears that Russia is to finance
onlv half of her one-sixth interest
while the Japanese participation will
be financed entirely by the French. In
effect France is to supply nearly half
nf the loan. For that reason the
American. British and German bankers
are willing to concede some of the
claims made by the French group.

policyholders at the end of each year often exceed those paid by
other companies $2.00 to $15.00 per $1000 which means just
that much saved. We can do this because we earn more. Still
other companies pay NO dividends at all but ask you to let their
stockholders have the excess profits earned by pour money. Get that?
Productive farms are the backbone of the nation and over 80 percent
of our assets consist of farm loans. The farm produces regardless of

Earl- Morning Blaze Threat-
ens Business District; Ex-
plosion in Drug Store.
Fire believed to have originated in a'
trash box in the basement of the Kress
store 211 and 211 Mesa avenue at 5:30
oclock Wednesday morning was re-
sponsible for the almost total loss of
the stock in that building and $6000
damages done to the building. Due to
the arrival of the central fire depart-
ment shortly after the alarm was
turned in a disastrous fire was prob-
ably averted the store building being
located in the heart of the business
district of the city. The fire had
gained considerable headway before
the alarm was sounded and when fire
chief W. W. Armstrong arrived a sec-
ond alarm was turned in. The Mesa
and Sunset fire companies responded to
that.
The stock in the store which filled
the basement was a complete loss.
It was estimated that 40 percent of the
stock on the first floor was destroyed
by fire and water. The flames from
the basement burst through the floor-
ing of the first floor. It required one
I hour of the combined efforts of the
three fire companies to extinguish the
flames.
A S. Howard the manager of the.
store who -was on the scene shortly
after the alarm was turned in. stated
that he was unable to account for the
fire. It was chief AVmstrong who
expressed the opinion that the fire
started in a trash box. which he said
-was located in the basement under-
neath a chute through which the trash
was sent down. Mr. Howard stated
that it was impossible to estimate the
damage to the stock as an inventory
had not been taken for some time.
Explosion Wreck Drug Store.
At 1:45 Wednesday morning four
hours prior to the Kress fire two ex-
plosions occurred in the Oregon
Street Pharmacy in the 400 block on
North Oregon street. Almost the en-
tire stock in the building was de-
stroyed. Nb fire followed the explos-
ions which although believed to have
been produced by chemicals have not
been accounted for.
I Fire In Morehouse Block.
At noon Wednesday the central
company responded to an alarm for a
fire in the Morehouse block building
on Oregon street. Burlap in the hall-
way on the second floor of that build-
ing was found ablaze. Cither a
match or a lighted cigaret is believed to
have been responsible for the fire
-which did only a slight damage.

PRACTICE MOBILIZATION
CAUSES RUN ON BANKS
Metz. Germany Feb. 5. Consterna-
tion was caused here today during an
experimental mobilisation of the 16th
army corps when the commanding gen-
eral stationed sentinel at the banks.
Frightened depositors hurried to
draw out their money and long lines
of them gathered before the doors un-
til the situation was explained. For
some time depositors hesitated to be-
lieve the statements of the sentinels
and the "runs" continued for several
hours.
