Los Angeles, Nov. 21.-The case of the government against the four Mexi- can revolutionists on the extraordinary charge of plotting against the Mexican government, was materialY strength ened today by the introduction of let ters alleged to have been intercepted by the federal authorities which con tain reference to plans for the assas- snation of President Porfirio Diaz and the formation of new republic to be known as the United States of Mexico. the capture of the customs house at Douglas, Ariz., and the employment of blood thirsty Yaaui Indians as a con- quering force south of the Mexican line.
 The prosecution affirms that Ricardo Flores Magon. one of the men arrest ed here several months ago was pick ed as the successor of DiaZ. Antonio Villareal, librado Rivera and Gutierrez Delara, with Magon, are facing extra dition proceedings. While not denying that they planned an overthrow of the present government of Mexico. they vigorously repudiate the intention of organizing a military expedition with in the United States, and they claim that that is the only offense for which they can be eXtradited.
 Letters alleged to have been ad- dressed 10 the men on trial were in troduced in evidence during today's hearing.

A dramatic feature of the day was a description by Soren Christiansen of Salt Lake City of the encounter be- tween Mrs. Bradley and Mrs. Brown at a hotel in Pocatello. Idaho, in the summer of 1906. Mrs. Brown discov- cred Mrs. Bradley in a hotel with the senator and attacking her attempted to choke her and asked to be allowed to kill her. The cries of Mrs. Bradley brought the senator to the rescue. The entire party. including the witness, had spent all the night discussing the diff ficulty and Brown. turning fiercely upon his wife denied that he was the father of her son. Max Brown. At the same time he admitted that he was the father of two of Mrs. Bradley's chil- dren. An outburst of denunciation by Mrs. Brown of her husband and Mrs. Bradley followed. after which the senator and defendant went to anoth- CT hotel.
 It was expected that all the testi- mony would be put in today but at the last moment the district attorney subpoeaned three extra witnesses. AL most certainly the testimony will be concluded on Friday. to which day the court adjourned.
