CAMINETTJ FOUND GUILTYJF CHARGE lie and Biggs Will Each be Sentenced for Escapades on September 10.
(National News Association) SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Sept. 6. Farley Drew Caminettl, son of the commissioner general of Immigration of the United States, was found guilty late yesterday on one count of the indictment charging him with violation of the Mann white slave act. The finding was that Caminetti was guilty of transporting Lola Norris to Reno for Immoral purposes. The jury was out three hours and took eight ballots. From the first the vote stood 10 to 2 for conviction and finally the two recalcitrants agreed to nom promise by finding a verdict of guilty on one of the four counts charged. Bail in the sum of $10,000 was furnished by Frank Freeman of Willows, Cal., and G. Bacigalupi, of San Francisco, and was ready to be filed with the United States marshal when the verdict was announced. Sentence will be pronounced Wednesday, Sept. 10, the day set for sentencing Maury I. Diggs, jointly indicted with Caminetti and convicted on four counts. Exceptions to the charge of Judge VanFlett as a whole and in part were taken by counsel and a petition for an ' appeal will be filed as was announced j in the case of Diggs. Nudges Brother Jokingly. Caminetti took the verdict lightly, j smiling a forced smile and nudging his j brother jocularly. First he lifted his little daughter Naomi, who was playing at his feet, and placed her carefully in her mother's lap. Then he shook hands with his lawyers and with Diggs, who has been sitting narbv. Jis mother- and wife showed no emotion. They sat with lowered heads saving Into their laps. Caminetti and Maury I. Diggs, former state architect of California, were jointly indicted on six counts and Diggs was found guilty on four v of them, the jury being unable to agree on two counts. Diggs, however, has still a third indictment hanging over him. With Caleb B. Harris of Sacramento, his former attorney, he Is accused of subornation of perjury. Nellie Barton, a friend of Marsha Warrington, testified during the Diggs' trial that Harris and j Diggs had coached her in testimony which she in turn was to drill into Marsha Warrington for use on behalf of Diggs. The perjury trial will be called before Judge VanFlett on Wednesday, the day of the sentences. 1 CAMBRIDGE CITY , CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Sept. 6.

"Big Brute" Pilot Car, Leads in Western Tour
"Big Brute," a name given the "Pilot 60" car in the West, which entered the endurance run from Indianapolis to Los Angeles, this year was one of the sixteen of the nineteen cars that started which finished the greatest automobile test run America has known. "Pilot 60" crew, composed of G. If. Smith, Russell Gaar, driver, a representative of the Western Union Telegraph company, and the official photographer, left Richmond June 30 to join the party at Indianapolis. On July 1, the cars left for the West. "As far as St. Louis," said Mr. Smith, describing the trip, "the roads were good. Leaving St. Louis the "Pilot 60' was pace-maker for the day. While crossing the Mississippi River at St. Chrles a heavy rain storm was encountered, and the cars stopped on the covered bridge and the tops were raised, side curtains mounted, and chains put on. Pilot Helps Cars. "After leaving St. Charles, the touring party divided, and a local automobile enthusiast was taken into the 'Pilot 60' to lead the party as the pathfinder car had taken the wrong road out of St. Charles for Columbia, Mo., which was the night , control. Some cars that had taken the wrong road stuck in the mud on the clay hills and the 'Pilot 60' succeeded in extricating them, and all cars arrived in Columbia on time. From Columbia the trip westward was made under good conditions until Burlington, Co., was reached. Here, at an elevation of 8,000 feet, for the first time, power changes were noticed. A loss of power in the carburetor became apparent and after adjusting it to the, high altitude, 'Big Brute' had no further trouble on the trip. The efficiency of the cooling system of 'Pilot 60' was exemplary, notwithstanding the grades, some of them as high as 30 per cent. The extremely high altitude encountered at 11,000 feet, and where heavy sand and gravel was encountered, caused the motor to overheat only once on the entire trip." Gaar Explains Mishap. Mr. Gaar insisted this would not have happened had not the "Pilot 60" been behind two smaller and slower I cars which he could not pass on the I narrow road. The enforced slow runj ning heated the motor. "In going over Berthaud pass," continued Mr. Smith, "which is the highest pass in the Rockies, nine persons were carried in the four-passenger 'Pilot 60,' ffve of them passengers of other cars that were unable to cross the mountain. One of the most beautiful stretches of scenery on the trip was seen in the Grand Canyon of the Grand river. The road3 were fair, but so narrow that In rounding abrupt turns the wheels next the precipice were only six inches from the abyss, while the fenders barely missed the rocks on the bluff side. Find Gasoline Costly, "The cost of gasoline increased as we approached the West coast. Sta tions had been arranged for the dis tribution of oil and gasoline along the Real Estate During

In the construction of the Evans building at Tenth and Main streets, a large vein of excellent water was struck at a depth of 9 feet and 6 inches below the sidewalk level. The excavators also encountered dry quicksand. Fearing that the vein of quicksand which was struck in building the Westcott hotel several years ago, the architects decided to rest the Evans building on concrete columns, which extend almost four feet below the level of the cellar floor. In digging holes for these, the water was reached. Under the vein, a solid gravel bed was found on which the columns were built. Quicksand Also Found. At one corner of the cellar, the edge of the vein of dry quicksand was

tour. At Carney's Ranch, oil and gasoline had to be hauled seven miles from the railroad by wagon, where it was sold to the touring party at 60 cents a gallon. It took this wagon serei days to make the round trip. "The original route was from Ely, Nevada, to Austin, and then to Reno, but owing to reports that the Falleon Sink territory was impassable, the route was changed from Ely to Tonapah and Goldfield, then to Rishop, which is only 237 miles from Los Angeles, the tour terminal. But the Pilot 60' crew decided to make the original tour to Reno. After leaving Carson City at 7:30 o'clock in the morning, it arrived at Reno at 10:45 o'clock the same morning, a distance of thirty miles, over the supposedly impassable road.' Use Railroad Bridge. "Big Brute" left Reno at 1 o'clock for Lake Tahoe going around its upper end, but six miles out of Reno the party discovered three bridge washouts and it was necessary to take to the railroad grade which was parallel to the bridge road or return to Reno. The Pilot crew found by taking to the railroad grade and driving one and a half miles over it, 'they could pass the places where the bridges were washed out. The Pilot crew made the Tavern ahead of the other cars which ferried across the lake. During the entire trip the crew of
I the "Pilot 60" was out of the car only j once to make an adjustment and that j happened in going over Santa Sussana j Pass, about 40 miles from Los Angeles, when the starting crank was slightly bent by striking a large boulder. This pass was so thickly covered with boulders and so rough that the big road race originally routed from Los Angeles over this pass was abandoned. The trip was made in twenty-four running days. Three hundred and eighty-five gallons of gasoline were used. Only One Puncture. "We went into San Francisco on the same air we left Richmond in the front tires," said Mr. Smith, "and had only one puncture in the rear tires, caused by picking up a horse-shoe nail in a deep bed of said. Five tire changes were necessary on rear wheels caused by the tubes being torn on the mountain passes. "On the way out the 'Pilot 60' established agencies at Denver, Reno, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Santa Anna, and Salt Lake City. The car which made the trip to the coast was turned over to the San Francisco dealer who decided to use it without repainting, as a demonstrator. The object of the tour was to show that Indiana-made cars could go anywhere, and for the advertisement and trade-selling feature as well. The "Pilot 60" driven in the tour is identical in construction, with the cars delivered all season, excepting that it had a large emergency gasoline tank built for the trip. The automatic lamps attracted more attention than any other feature on the tour. One lamp turns with the steering gearing, while the other remains stationary. Deals Week Slack found and about two cubic yards removed. The sand is as fine as powder and it was almost impossible to remove it because of its sliding qualities About 5,000 yards of fine gravel were removed from the excavations. It is believed that the gravel vein runs under all the downtown buildings. Real esfate deals in Richmond and Wayne county with the exception of one were very slack this week. A. M. Robert put through one of the biggest deals in Wayne county, this week. It was a large, profitable farm near Cambridge City. The sale totaled 523,000. A Trip To Florida. D. R. Funk left the city this week for Florida with a party of eight land buyers, headed for the beautiful south

I USING BIG ENGINES ! FOR STEEL COACHES The large K-2 and K-3 type of passenger engines are coming into more general use on the Pennsylvania lines and the shops are busy turning out these powerful models. The steel cars that have come to supplant the old wooden coaches make the trains much heavier and at this time of the year the traffic makes, extra coaches necessary, so the ordinary type of locomotives are scarcely able to pull the trains. The K-2 and K-3 are built with three pairs of driving wheels in place of the ordinary two on the old stile engines. The cylinders are much bigger and are double to secure additional power. One of these engines will consume 80 gallons of water a minute while running on schedule time, making an immense quantity of steam. Several days ago No. 51, equipped with a K-2. came into Richmond several minutes late, and the run from Richmond to Indianapolis, a distance of 68 miles, was made in 69 minutes, counting two stops and the slow run through the Indianapolis yards. The train was made up of seven steel Pullman cars. TO FILL VACANCIES Vacancies of positions of brakemen on trains 75 and 80, Columbus layover, will be filled on or after September 14.
