M'MANIGAL REJECTS HELP

Los Angeles, Cal, May 1.-The case against John McNamara, his brother James, and Ortie McManigal, is expected to reach a crisis soon, with the arrest of several labor lead CTS in California, who, the police de- clare, were associates of the prisoners in directing the plot which resulted in the destruction of the Los Angeles Times building and the killing of 21 men.
 At least two labor leaders of state wide prominence are being watched night and day.
 Serious disturbances of the peace are feared as the result of the arrests already made and of a mass meeting of labor men to protest against the Kidnapping of McNamara in Indianap- oils. The meetin is said to have been been an exciting one.
 McManigal has refused to see or have anything to do with attorneys engaged for the McNamara brothers.
 District Attorney Frederick has about decided to arraign the prison CTS early, before a justice of the peace. The state thereby would avoid surrendering a transcript of the min utes of the grand jury under which they were indicted.
 Not until Job Hartman, the labor union lawyer, heard McManigal re- pudiate the unions and refuse legal aid, did the union men admit the pos sibility that McManigal had joined forces with the prosecution.
 "McManigal told me that he had confessed nothing and that 1t was ab- surd for the papers to publish such statements" said Hartman. l shall not be convinced until l talk with him myself"

Canadian Premier Tells Opposition He Will Miss Kings Coro- nation to Fight for
 Agreement.

Ottawa, Ont, May 1.-The deter nination of the Canadian government 70 ratify reciprocity was emphasized parliament by the prime minister, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who declared that le would not go to England to repre- ;ent Canada at the imperial confer snce or to the coronation of King George in June, but would remain lere to pres the agreemnt if the op- position persisted in obstructing it's atification.
 The matter was brought before par lament by the opposition leader, MT. Borden, who asked Sir Wilfrid what ais intentions were in regard to the approaching events in London.
 First Duty to Canada.
 q dem it my duty to attend, and engaged my passage six weeks ago, replied the prime minister but l nave come to the conclusion that should my presence be required in Canada, and there is every indication that it may be, it will be my duty to torego the privilege of attending the conference. My first duty is to Can ada
 As Canada is a most important part of the British empire" said Mr. Borden, "it is obvious that in the ab- sence of its prime minister no very important action can be taken by the conference"
 Mr. Borden suggested that parlia- ment could rise for two months to enable Sir Wilfrid to cross the At lantic. and that the consideration of the reciprocity agreement could be re- sumed upon his return. He added:
 50 far as reciprocity is concerned, our attitude is one of uncompromis- ing opposition. We believe if carried into effect it would be disastrous not only to Canada but to the British em- pire'
 Trade Agreement in Way.
 q entirely agree" said Sir Wilfrid in reply. that it would be unfortu- nate that any of the prime ministers of the self-governing British domin ions should be absent from so i'm portant an event as the imperial con ference. If it is not possible for me to go. the fault will not he mine. The one thing which prevents is the posi- ton of the trade agreement with the United States"

 FOR ANNUAL AIR

It is not generally known that the Alabama State Fair association is spend- ing more money this year to insure a sue cessful exposition than at any previous time in the history of the association.
 It is offering more and larger premiums than ever before, and as an additional inducement is offering bonuses for the early exhibitor. It has appropriated a sum for advertising considerably in ex- cess of previous years, and is covering | larger field The cost of the free at fractions will be enormous, owing to the hish character and novelty of the sew eral Acts and performances.
 The comfort of the patrons has not been overlooked and the grounds, stands and rest places have been overhauled and renovated. This activity on the part of MT. Burton and his associates has al- ready borne fruit. and there is an ever ,.yowing interest in the approaching ex- position. The business houses are pre- pairing to put on the gayest of gala at tire when the fair opens, and that it will draw thousands of visitors to the city by reason of it's excellence Is not doubted.

years. The commissioners are acting in dual capacity, of judges and traders for the city of Birmingham. As judges they say they will grant the increase As traders the say they will require the company not only to sign an agreement as to the service but will require the company to make certain improvements which are held to be imperative for ef- ficient service.
 These negotiations have progressed with great satisfaction, it is said, and may terminate almost any hour. If the agree ment is reached it is apprehended that the increase will be allowed and the citizens informed as to the decision by a joint statement from President EXum and Judge Lane, the two commissioners who are to decide the question.
 The commissioners realize the immense importance of the situation and are cau- tious about reaching a decision.
