man for the Italian band to play six
months at his rink for $1,000 week,
Grammar TO have the privilege of re-
newing the contract at its expiration,
and the band of thirty-six pieces was
brought TO this city from Los Angeles
at once.
The alleged conspiracy was formed
then. Wiley claims. He declares that
Grammar was notified to have moth
ing to do with the band and was told
that he must discharge the band and
secure union players. On November 81
Wiley was notified to appear before
the union and defend himself against
charges of employing the musicians
below the union scale of wages. He
was charged with employing two men
not in good standing with the Los An
geles union and told to pay his play
ers $35 instead of s25 per week The
result of the investigation was that he
was expelled from the union and his
men were fined 800 each He claims
also that he was insulted and locked

ton was in progress

HOLDS MURDERERs
WITHOUT BAIL

Police Judge Shortall decided yester-
day morning that John Siemsen and
Louis Dabner, charged with robbing
the japanese bank on October 8, muir
dering it's manager and seriously
wounding its cashier, should be held
without bail to await trial in the Su-
perior Court In committing the men
to the higher court the Judge said
that the evidence in the case was not
only sufficient, but was most conclu-
sive, and he complimented the Police
Department upon its success in gather
ing such complete chain OF evidence
against the prisoners.
The usually serene face of Siemsen
became momentarily clouded as the
Judge expressed his opinion of the
case. When the hahdcuffs were placed
on Siemsens wrists, preparatory to
his being taken from the room, he
complained that they were not proper.

ly put on, but the officer did not re-
move them, simply twisting them to
make them At more easily.
Dabner was apparently unmoved by
the statement of the Judge. He sat
STILL looking directly in front of
him, as though he might have been
deaf to what was going on. He quiet
" submitted to the return of the
handouts and was led from the room
without any mark of emotion in his
face.
No witnesses or other evidence were
offered by the defense The State
rested its case Friday afternoon, after
taking the evidence of Sasaki in his
room in the hospital, and the defense
was expected to present its case yes
terday morning. After it was called,
however. it required but a few mo-
ments to dispose of 1t.
Attorney Greedy, representing the
prisoners, Immediately made a mo-
ton to dismiss the case of Dabner on
the ground that there was not suff1-
cient evidence and that the Judge had
no Jurisdiction in the case The mo-
ton was denied and he made SINH
lar motion regarding Siemsen, which
was also denied. Then the case was
submitted to the Judge for his deci
sion, which was promptly rendered.

murder was of the most cold -blooded
character, and that the. guilty men
should be punished for their crime.
The courtroom was packed to the door

transportation of electricity at high pressure, or

inevitable Chicago and New York are the great

the most dense1y populated section of the United
States. It is 100 miles shorter than any railroad III
existence between the two cities. The 100 pound
steel rails will run as straight science can lay
them until the mountains of Pennsylvania are
reached. Luxurious trains without smoke, with
out cnders, without discomfort of any kind, will
shoot from city to city in ten hours Not railroads.
not highway will be crossed at grade. Not new
engineering problem is involved Can any man
fail to see the immense leverage for business in
service of this kind
What are we doing today? We are raising
the money necessary for the construction of this
railroad by sale of stock We building the first
section of this railroad, from Laporte to Chicago,
as rapidly as possible When that is completed we
shall extend it to South Bend thence to Goshen,
one hundred miles distant from Chicago As fast
as section is completed and equipped it will be put
in operation; it will commence earning money, as
every other electric railroad in the country earn
ing money. Before the first train into Goshen
stock will be selling par. For this railroad is to
be built without issuing bond 1t will belong to
