FAMILY OF ELECTROCUTED
LINEMAN RETAINS LAWYER
Probable That Suit for Damages Will
Be Brought Against Edison
Company

PASADENA, Aug. 21.-Attorney
James f. Byrne of this city has been
retained by the widow and brothers of
John William Claudin of Cypress ave-
nue., the lineman who was electrocuted
last week through coming in contact
with a high voltage wire of the Edison
Electric company, and it is probable
the relatives, following the verdict of
the coroner's jury, which censured the
Edison company, will bring an action
for damages against that company.
The Edison company is expected to
fight the case, as it has maintained all
along that the mans death could easily
have been obviated had the foreman OF
the gang notified it of the work being
done on the wires and given it an op-
portunity to shut off the current on
that circuit.

REIGN OF TERROR.
Zelaya Said to Have 500 Political Pris-
oners in Chains.

Bluefelds, Nicaragua, Dee. ll.-It
it learned from an authoritative source
that reign of terror is being main
tanned in Managua, and that not less
than 500 persons identified with poll
tics are in chains in the prisons A
Catholic society has been ordered to
cease sending supplies to the prisoners,
who may starve to death, as they are
allowed only 2 cents day for food.
Corporal punishment is meted out daily
to various alleged offenders.
Zelaya, to create an impression that
the sentiment of the people of Managua
is hostile towards America and Ameri-
cans, recently ordered Amelio Estrada,
prominent liberal and brother of the
revolutionist chief, to organize a dem
onstration against the United States
This he refused to do.
1t is understood that DR.. Julian Irias,
minister general, has been making at
tempts to start an uprising in his favor
as Ielaya' s successor, but whether with
Ielaya's consent is not known. II is
reported also that Irias' home has been
surrounded by soldiers. Further au-
thoritative dispatches state that 500 of
Ielaya s forces have been entrenched to
prevent American marines from passing
over the bridges into Corinto.
Since last Thursday, when General
Estrada became certain that General
Nasquez, in command of a portion Of
Zelaya s troops, was attempting to make
a detour of Rama to seize an unguarded
river point and descend upon Bluetields,
forces of the provisional government
have been acting with great energy.
Rama has been occupied, and less i'm
portant river landings have been strong
ly guarded. All available boats have
been held in reserve to rush reinforce
ments to any point that may be threat
ened.
General Chamorro and 250 men ar
rived today to assist in guarding the,
entire 60 miles of the Escondido river,
from Rama to Bluefields. General
Chamorro left 300 men guarding the
land passage between Bluefelds and
Jfreytown.
