LOS ANGELES, CAL, Oct. 90
Friends of L. Gutierrez De Lara,
the Mexican socialist organizer, ar
rested here Monday as an alien
anarchist, today launched a cam
paign to raise 5000 necessary to
secure De Lara's release on bail.
De Lara is practically without
funds, and his attorneys have ad-
vanced the money necessary to de-
fray expenses that followed his ar
rest.
While no specific amount has
been named as bail for the pris-
oner. 1t is thought that 5000 will
cover any demand made by the
United States authorities, and eff
forts will be made to raise that
amount. Mrs. Mary Garbutt has
been appointed by De Lara's SYM
pathizers to receive contributions
to the bail fund.
Another plan, which is said to
be backed by local socialists, in
|cludes a mass meeting which will
be scheduled for late this week.
The obejct of this meeting will be
to enter a protest against the de-
|portation of the prisoner.
May Escape
According to immigration In
|spector A. c. Ridgway, If De Lara
can establish a residence in the
United States of more than three
years or IL he can bring evidence
to refute the anarchistic charge
against him, he cannot be deport-
ed. Attorneys Nelly and Holston,
who have been retained by De
Lara, stated today that they have
received information from Ell Paso
to the effect that their client reg
istered an entry into the United
States at that border point Sept
20, 1906. Holston also stated
tsat he had sent to Washington
for documents bearing on the case
and that the three years residence
qualification can be met.
May Seek His Life
That the life of De Lara l.
sought by the Mexican govern
ment, was alleged today by D,
Lara's wife.
Eight months ago, according t.
Mrs. De lara, her husband re
turned from a trip through Mexico
with John Kenneth Turner, who's,
recent expose in the American
magazine of conditions alleged t
lexist in Mexico at the present tim
!created a national sensation.
De Lara, according to his wife
acted as Turner's guide through
the country of President Diaz an
assisted him in gathering data TO
his magazine article. AS a result
of this, she stated. the Mexical
government is determined on re
venge.
Since his arrival in Ell Pas
more than three years ago, &C
cording to Holston, De Lara lef
the country but once, that time t
tour Mexico with Turner. This
Holston contends, must be viewe'
in the light of trip such as an
resident of the United States nigh
take and can in no manner impai
his legal residence in this coun
ltry.
