One Republic In Central America.
Consolidation OF the FIVE Central
American republics into one gov
ernment Is the plan the state depart
ment Is working on. In the imme-
diate future only such steps as will
bring about the commercial develop
ment OF the countries, their estab-
iishment on a sound financial basis
and the stimulation OF an entente
between the republics, are eontem-
plated.
II Is the conviction Of the present
administration that the influential
element of the republics can be won
over by giving a stable basis to
commerce. The removal OF Zelaya
means the elimination Of the trouble
maker Of Central America,

On account Of the growing i'm

TRY ALLEGED DYNAMITER.
Oakland Woman Charged With Being
Instiqator of Crime.

Oakland, Cal, oct. 20.-Mrs. Isabel
la j. Martin. the alleged dynamiter.
who has been a source of more trouble
and worry to the local authorities dur
ing the past two years than any other
prisoner with whom they have ever
had to deal. is again prominently in
the public eye. her case having come
up this week for it's second trial. The
woman was convicted i'm December.
1908, of having instigated her minor
son, Baby John" Martin, to blow up
the home of Superior Judge ogden.
She hs had litigation in his court,
and imagined that she had not been
fairly treated.
At her first trial the contention Of
the prosecution was that the boys act
was i'm fact her own. as he was acting
I'm fear of his life when he blew up
Judge Ogden's home. The convicting
testimony was that Mrs. Martin kept
the youth Baby John" terrorized with
threat of death to the point of COM
peling him to do her bidding in set
ting off the bomb But the Appellate
Court ruled that the danger of threat
ened death was not sufficiently immin-
ent to free him from being an accom-
plice and without confederation the
testimony of an accomplice is not suf-
hcient to convict. The Supreme Court,
to which the district attorney took the
case refused to disturb the finding of
the Appellate Court and the case was
therefore assigned for retrial.
During the period of nearly two years
that Mrs. Martin has been confined in
Jail she has caused much trouble for
the Jail authorities by her eccentric
conduct. She has written many let
ters to persons of prominence com
planning that she has been mistreated
and that her health and life have been
endangered by continent in poorly
ventilated cell and by lack of proper
nourishment When brought into
court last July TO have the date fixed
for her second trial the woman at
tempted suicide by cutting her wrist:
with a piece of broken glass.
