Santa Barbara, Ca1if., oct IL
After twenty-four hours investigation
Sheriff Nat Stewart, of Santa Bar
bara county, today declared his be-
lief that here was no plot to kill
President Taft behind the placing Of
dynamite on the Southern Pacific
bridge twenty-five miles north of here
yesterday several hours before the
executives special train was due. The
sheriff therefore held TO the plot
theory, and It is reported that he had
run down a significant clue, disprov-
ing that suspicion.
HAD It been a plan TO kill the presi
dent" Stewart said, ''it seems to me
that the dynamiters would not have
placed the explosives so long before
the train was due. neither would they
have been routed by a lone Mexican
watchman."
Stewart did not say that his views
were on the question of how the dy-
Mantle came to be placed on the
bridge. Labor leaders here however,
are claiming that the explosives We're
planted" as a part of a plot to
create sentiment against the syestem
federation strikers on the Southern
Pacific.

men abandoned their attack on the
watchman and fled over the bridge

something must be wrong, Jenkins
called assistance and began search
of the bridge. He had not gone far
when he was attracted by a bulky OBJ

the explosive. The mines were near

the sticks was attached about ten feet

 The driver of the wagon, being thus appealed to, nodded sleepy head.
 Yes, sir," he said, that's as true as gospel
 Brooks climbed up on the hub of ths front wheel and looked at the wagon.
 If you have milk here," he said, let's see it."

 But it's fastened for shipping"

 The man did as he was bade, and sure enough 1t contained nothing but pure milk.
 Any other you'd like to see? asked Davis triumphantly.
 "Yes; open the can on the other end.'
 That was opened and that, like the other, yielded only A!derney milk.
 Now" said Brooks, let me see the contents of the can in the middle.
 "Oh," exclaimed Davis, this is carrying joke too far"
 The can was opened. however, and it was found to contain high proof whisky. Every one of the other l1 cans were filled with distilled spirits. Davis was arrested. tried and convict ed, and the far-reaching conspiracy Of defrauding the government defeated.

lace. He was a Scotch Presbyterian, and was the sexton of the village church. He was an intensely religious man and hungered for discussion of theological subjects. Brooks accommodated him more than once, and 1t was not long before he found himself among the boarders of Ezra Wallace's humble home. The old man would have cheer fully lodged and fed him for noth- ing for the sake of religious controver- sies on which he lived, and thrived, and had his being. One night the two men needed a book to verify some disputed point. It happened to be in the church library. Brooks volun- teered to go after it. The sexton hand ed him the key and he went to the church and obtained the book, but he conveniently forgot to return the key.
 Some time after midnight he quiet ly hurried to the church, and using the purloined key, made his way into the ediflce. It was quite dark and the place was unfamiliar, but he managed to grope along until he reached the stairway leading to the choir loft. From thence he climbed to the dingy attic at the base of the church steeple. He crawled up by easy stages until he reached the bel fry. rustling noise startled him. This was followed by another and then still another. He realized that the rats were scampering from their ac- customed haunts. The fluttering Of wings near the top of the structure re- minded him that he had disturbed the bats. It was still quite dark. and he
