COPENHAGEN, Oct. 19.-The father
of Knud Rasmussen has received a
letter from his son who lived for many
years among the Eskimos and speaks
the language perfectly. In the letter
Mr.. Rasmussen says he will arrive at
Copenhagen from Greenland on No

in favor of DR.. Cook against Com
mander Peary.

If the efforts of his friends are sue
cessful today, L. Gutierrez De Lara,
who now is in the county Jail on
charge of being an alien anarchist,
will be released from prison within
twenty-four hours. Efforts are being
made to raise a cash bail of $4,000,
which it is believed will be more than
sufficient to cover any bond required
by the United States authorities.
One of the developments in the case
yesterday was the voluntary affidavit
made by r. Clay Jackson, a mining
engineer residing at 1908 Everett street
Mr.. Jackson in his affidavit says ne
has known De Lara for two years ana
never in any conversation mas hearu
De Lara make an anarchistic utter
ance. All Of De Lara's writings and
speeches, recites the affidavit, have
been of a scientific and soical char
acter, and in them De Lara sought
changes in governmental forms by
means of the ballot.
De Lara is practically without funds
and his attorneys have so far been
compelled to advance all expenses. His
friends have started a subscription list
and have appointed Mrs. Mary Gar
butt, 2110 Ocean View, to act as treas
urer and to receive all money any per-
son interested in De LaraS case may
feel inclined to contribute to his de-
fense.
Plans are rapidly maturing for
monster mass meeting to be held in
some large hail. probably Simpson au-
ditorium. the latter part of the week.
This meeting, it is understood, will be
for all citizens of all beliefs and will
be merely as a protest against De
Laras deportation.
Outline Defense
Attorneys Nelly and Holston are rap
idly outlining De Lara's defense. AL
ready they have sent for documents
from washington to prove, certain
phases of it, and to Ell Paso to prove
De Lara's first entrance into this coun-
try. According to information received
from Ell Paso yesterday, De Lara regis
tered there September 20, 1906.
1t is understood that several detec
tives are engaged seeking evidence
against De Lara. If sufficient funds
are received De Lara's friends say they
will hire detectives to aid them in run

declare give direct information of De
