PAPERS SENT TO COURT
RumOr That Indictments Have BeeH
Found ia Los Angeles Times
Explosion Case.

Los Angeles, Cal. Nov Confer
ences between the special grand jury
and District Attorney Fredericks late
today gave rise TO numerous rumOrs
that indictments had been found in the
Times explosion case. The rumOrs were
denied by officials OF the district at
tOrneys office tonight but at the same
time the air of stimulated interest ap-
parent among the grand jurors when
they adjourned until tomorrow, coupled
with unusual activity on the part OF
deputies on guard outside the inquis-
itOrial chamber, furnished bases for the
surmise that the indictment stage of
the case had been reached.
This was the first visit of District At
tOrney Fredericks to the grand jury
room. He brought with him safe de-
post case and several documents.
Shortly after he had taken them into
Ice grand jury room. Foreman Charles
Weir appeared AT the door and gave
Two of the papers into the hands of
Deputy Sheriff Martin Aguirre. who
took them into the chambers of Presid
ing Judge Walter Bordwel of the SUI
perior court.

Since the reOpening Of parliament,
delegations of militant suffragettes
have picketed the approaches to the

members of radical election committees
threatened a revolt unless the govern
ment recognized their claims prior 10
the coming election.
1t seems that the premier's promise
made in the house of commons today
instead of placating, only inflamed the
women.

With a rush the women left the hall,
and, several hundred strong, started
for Downing street. They encountered
Mr.. AsQuith en- route, and before the

was not long before he recognized that
he was in a hostile camp, for without
