Exceptions Offered by Attorneys fol
H. Clay Pierce 0verruled by

Austin. Texas. Dec. 6.-Judge Calhoun

by H Clay Pierce in the proceedings
against him charging false swearing
and ordered the trial to proceed.
Judge Calhoun said the exception 70

Of the affidavit was not well taken. be-
cause the constitution OF Texas does
not prohibit a woman from serving in
that capacity.
Following the ruling the attorneys
for the state asked time to consult,
which was granted. 1t is the general
opinion that they VIII try Mr.. pierce
on a charge of false swearing.
The chief contention of the defense
today, after the presiding Judge over
ruled all arguments as TO the iHegality
of the affidavit. was that the state
ought to hold Pierce responsible for
confessions made on the witness stand
made under the immunity clause of
Missouri. This, it was cOntended, in
connection with the Texas law of 1907
granting a like immunity, eXOnerated
the defendant from aDv responsibility
in connection with his narrative as to
the history Of the Waters-Pierce Oil
company
Inasmuch as the state seeks to es-
tabllsh the greater part Of its case ON
the testimony submitted in Missouri,
arguments are Ringing around that
problem with lawyers on both sides
prepared for many hours discussion as
TO the correctness of their respective
positions.

been here the last few DAYS. and has
made a visit to people selling butter
without having it properly labeled, A
great many of the farmers have ceased
selling their cream to the creameries,
and have gone into the butteT-making
business for the market. Most of this
butter is sold to local concerns. and
there has been a disregard of the law
in the manner of wrapping.
Since Mr.. Hansen's visit this has
been changed Yesterday il was i'm

that the markets refused to accept

ton known as the United States of Cen
tral America. Tt soon became evident,
however. that Zelaya wanted to be the
president of the new republic and gov
ern it as automatically as he had his
own. The two states Immediately pro-
tested and the federation was dissolved
in November of the same year.
But the international entanglements of
Nicaragua were not the only questions
with which this ingenious ruler had TO
deal.
His enemies were numerous. and when
the Quadrennial election periods came
round he had to see to it that they were
carefully removed He developed a sys-
TEN of espionage which rivals that Of
Russia, and thousands of citizens, whose
only crime was their opposition to the adj
miniStratiOn, were forced into exile, and
their estates forfeited. Others were
ciapped into Jail until the election was
over, while some of the more dangerous
element were placed against a stone wall
as targets for a file of soldiers.
On one of the elections a unique
scheme was devised by this clever poll
tician to deceive the ignorant prOvincials
and insure his election. 1t consisted in
the printing of three names on the bal
lOts-JOse, Santos and Zelaya-an can
didates for the presidency. The result
showed the election of all three; or. in
other words. Jose Santos Zelaya was
unanimously reelected.
BY such methods Zeaya has managed
to be thrice reelected, in spite of his
enemies.
Many attempts have been made to as
sassinate him, and in 1902 his palace at
Managua was blown up and $50 soldiers
killed, but the WHY executive escaped I'M
harmed. His undisputed bravery and
many miraculous escapes from death have
led the more superstitiOus Of his enemies
TO believe that he IS in league with the
devil.

In one instance he learned of a plot

When they were brought up for trial
however, he was unusually lenient with
them. Some We're imprisoned for long

ihimitable ambition has been in supreme
power in the hOtbed of revolution Al

His courage and purpose won for him

his impOlitic methods and Unsuitable ava

Present indications are. however. that
he has reached the end of his rope and
his fate will probably be the same as that
of the Venezuelan tyrant. The present
revolutionary movement is by far the
strongest that has ever been organized

Washington, Dec. 6.-The internal and
International quarrels in which the Ze-

Yolved have brought forcibly to the at
tention of this and other governments the
arrogant ruler of that turbulent Central
American republic-JOse Santos Zelaya-
VINO for nearly a score of years has been
one Of the most troublesome figures in
International affairs.
That the latest difficulty IN which he
mas become involved, through the eXecu-
ton of GrOce and Cannon, citizens of the
United States. will result in his final
elimination from the field of politics, is
now generally believed by diplomats here
in Washington
The long list of insults to which vari-
Gus nations have been subjected by this
troublesome executive, and which culmi-
mated in the killing of Leonard Groce
and Leroy Cannon, American residents of
Nicaragua, Will undoubtedly be avenged
by Uncle Sam. While q substantial in
demnity undoubtedly will be demanded
for their deaths, the intervention of this
nation is expected to result in the success
OF the present revolutionary movement,
under General Juan Estiada. This would
mean Zelaya's deposition as president and
undoubtedly his exile from Nicaragua.
For nearly a score of years this auto
crat has ruled Nicaragua with an iron
hand, substituting military force where
moral suasiOn proved ineffective. and
sowing the seed of discoTd among the
other Central American states. which
would ultimately be harvested to his ad-
vantage.
