 Complete Surprise.

To the Editor of the Age-Herald:
 wish to deny the report published in the Age-Herald a few days since that I was a fugitive from justice. My friends in Birmingham knew ten days before my departure that I was going and also my destination. I did not attempt in any way to conceal by movements, and my arrest on the charge of embedding funds from the Avondale Stove company came as a complete surprise.

 In keping with the declaration of inde- pendence many in Birmingham took the familiar oath: "As a citizen of these United States, free and independent, 1 will drink as much as I wish, so sure and so long as I am able to stand at the bar. and so do I affirm"
 The liauor gone, they are now sleeping the sleep of the drunk in the city jail. Twenty were arrested on the charge and all of them will swear today that they were not drunk but had merely been celebrating the Fourth of July.

WORLDS THEATERS
IN ONE TRUST.
Klaw & Erlanger Want to Control
AmuSements in America and
Europe.

CHICAGO, Ill.,, July 16-The Daily
News today says that plans for the for
nation of a $1OO,OOO,OOO trust in the
worlds theaters became known today
A lawyer representing Klaw Il Erlanger,
it is said, sailed from New York today
for London to pass upon the legal fea-
lures of the plans before their accept
ance by the syndicate for which they
were prepared.
The international theater trust WILL
according to report not only control the
best theaters in Europe, but have under
contract the highest talent in legitimate
and vaudeville fields.
The attempted formation of this new
theatrical undertaking is said to grow
out of the recent decision of the New
York courts that theaters and amuse-
ments are not trade and commerce."
and therefore their combination is not q
violation of law.
\. L. Erlanger is quoted as saying:
Il will say that is true that we are
about to make our interests cO-eNtenslve
with Europe and America. | can see
no reason why homogeniety Of man
agement and ownership will not be high
the producers and the owners. Whether
some of the principal amusement inter
ests of Europe and America can be
welded into one. necessarily requires
concert of thought and action on the
part of those who are the leaders abroad
and here in that line. Our counsel sailed
this morning to investigate and discuss
and determine legal plans 1t will take
some time to work out the proposition.

SAYS HANG GUGGENHEIM
JUDGE LINDSAY BITTERLY SCORES
COLORADO SENATOR.
Jurist Tells Chautauqua Hope for His
State Lies in Hughes or La
Toilette.

CHAUTAUQUA, n. Y, July 10
Not the Senate chamber but the peni-
Tertiary or the gallows is the place for
Simon Guggenheim of Colorado, accord
ing to Fighting Judge" Ben B. Lindsey
of Denver, in an interview after his adj
dress on 1.-The Child and the State" be
fore the Woman's club at Chautauqua
assembly yesterday.
The Judge elaborated on a few state
ments made in that address, maintaining
that the new Colorado senator is not
onA without any qualification or claim
for the office but that the bribery and
corruption by which he secured the SEN
atorship should send him and his partner
in politics, Evans, to the penitentiary,
if not the gallows.
Though a Democrat, Judge Lindsey
praised President Roosevelt as the great
est man on the planet today.
In Hughes or a La Toilette, he fur
Their asserted, lies the only salvation for
Colorado, which is absolutely rotten po-
litically.
Senator Simon Guggenheim should be
hanged if man who throws bomb
deserves to be hanged Judge Lindsey
declared emphatically. IF Meyer and
Haywood are guilty and deserve TO
hang, then Guggenheim and William q.
Evans, the RepuDncan BOSS, deserve
hanging more than they do, for the
crimes of Guggenheim and Evans are in
tinitely more far reaching.
Il know they are criminals, and every
one in Colorado knows it, but what can
be done to get such men even into the
penitentiary when they own the Legisla-
ture, both parties, many Of the judiciary
and the press of the state.
''Simon Guggenheim absolutely bought
his way into the United States Senate
yes, BOUGHT" declared the Eight
ing Judge" banging on the table to EN-.
phasiZe his words.

BABES CARRIED BOMB.
Little Turks Found Ball Getting Warm
So They Let 1t Drop in Front
of American Embassy.

CONSTANTINOPLE July 16.-The
author of the bomb explosion Sunday
night in front of the summer quarters
of the American embassy at Therapia, a
suburb of this city, as we'll as the motive
for the act, probably will remain mys
terry. The Turkish theory is that the
explosion had nothing to do with the
American embassy, but that it was con
nected with possible attempt upon the
life of George Christich, a natural son
of the late King Milan of Servia, who
resides with his mother in house ad
joining the embassy.
According to another version the bomb,
which appears to have been made of or
binary powder encased in shell OF
lead, was found in a boathouse in the vi
cinity by some children at play, who car
ried it off. Finding the package getting
warm in their hands they dropped it i'll
the streets. 1t then exploded, wounding
the three girls of the party.
