TO FIGURE IN
M'NAMARA CASE
Hole Caused by Explosion to Be
Brought Into Court

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug 9.-A hole
In the ground caused by the explosion
of bomb will figure In the trial OF
the Mcnamara brothers for the al
legged dynamiting of the Los Angeles
Times. The hole was dug up and
boxed for preservation.
On the morning OF the destruction
OF the Times building last October
two unexploded bombs were found at
the residence of General II. q. Otis,
owner Of the Times. and F. ]. Zee
handelaar, secretary OF the Merchants
and Manufacturers association.
A detective was carrying on the
bomb, enclosed In suitcase, from
the Otis grounds, when he heard a
clock ticking and dropped the grip
and ran. The bomb went off, tearing
large hole in the ground between
the sidewalk and the curbing.
The hole remained undisturbed and
a few days ago the attorneys for the
defense decided they needed the hole
for evidence.
Accordingly four detectives set to
work Sunday night and by daybreak
had tunneled under the hole, boxed 1t
In, and prepared to cart 1t to Attor-
ney Job Harriman's Office.
While they awaited a truck pass
ersby noticed their operations and
telephoned District Attorney Freder-
icks. Gathering an automobile full of
detectives Fredericks rushed to the
scene
Hold on" cried Fredericks, peer
ing into the box, what have we
here?"
Nothing but hole," replied Harri-
mans detectives.
"Oh, very well" said the district at
torney, you're welcome to It,"

IL In a dory, on prospecting voyage
About June storm upset their
craft off Bardwell island and their pro-
visions and outfit were lost In the sea.

July l, they ate their food raw. Two

CROPS BENEFITED
BY RECENT RAINS
Government Report Indicates
Better Conditions.

Washington, Aug. 9.-Continued
cool weather in the interior and bene
fetal rains In districts where most
needed were the crop growing weather
features of the week, according to the
national weekly weather bulletin.
Summarizing the weeks effect on
agriculture, the bulletin says:
Good rains occurred In nearly all
portions of the principal corn growing
states, greatly relieving the needs Of
that cereal for more moisture at a
critical period of Its growth. More
rain Is still needed. however, in por-
tions of West Virginia, Ohio. Eastern
Missouri and locally In other states.
Partly cloudy, rainy and cool
weather prevailed In the spring wheat
growing states, interfering somewhat
with harvesting, hut it was generally
favorable for late vegetation.
"In the cotton growing states west
of the Mississippi the weather was
mostly favorable In Louisiana, Arkan-
sas and Oklahoma, and local showers
occurred in Northern and Eastern
Texas, but over the central and south
ern portions of that state there was
practically no rain, and at the end OF
the week high temperatures were
again prevailing.
"West of the Rocky mountains the
weather was generally favorable for
the development and ripening OF fruit,
and water for irrigation continued
plentiful"

garding. the deadlock on the wool tar
iff revision bill, Representative Under
wood of the conference subcommittee
said that unless an agreement with
Senator La Toilette could be brought
about soon he would ask to have the
full conference committee called to-
gether, with the view of reporting a
disagreement.
A second conference between La
Toilette and Underwood has been
held. Mr. Underwood said the situa-
tion was not particularly bright, but
that as one could never tell about
such matters" the conference might
produce results.
Complaining that the cotton inter
ests had been given no time for pre-
sentation of their case, Stewart Kra-
mer of Charlotte, N c., representing
the tariff committee of the American
Cotton Manufacturers association,
told the senate finance committee that
he could only file an emphatic pro-
test against the drastic revision pro-
posed in the Underwood bill"
This was at the first and only hear
ing on the cotton tariff revision bill
The committee will report the bill to
the senate by Thursday.
No Oral Hearings Allowed.
Mr.. Kramer said the cotton manu-
facturers had been allowed no oral
hearings before the house ways and
means committee and had been told
that If they had any facts to lay be-
fore the committee they might give
them to Chairman Underwood
Asked by Senator La Toilette as to
the effect OF high tariff on machinery
in the cotton industry, Mr. Kramer de-
clared that If he were given a cotton
mill under present conditions he could
not operate 1t at profit.
J. l.. Irving of Charlotte protested
against any reduction in the tariff on
mercerized goods. He said imports of
this fabric had steadily increased un-
der the Payne-Aldrich law and that
even with the protection now given
half of the mills in his line were idle
Chairman Penrose of the committee
stated that he had been approached
by representative of New England
cotton manufacturers, who protested
against the Underwood bill, and said
that in the short time given for hear
ings he would be unable to present
the claims of his interests in full.

CARTER EXPECTS
GREAT BENEFITS
Discusses Purpose Of Maneu.
vers In Texas.

Washington, Aug 9.-The real pur-
pose of the recent great assemblage
OF troops in Texas, aside from inter
national considerations, was the crea-
ton of one tremendous military unit
and that was successfully accom-
plished for the first time since the
Civil war, in the opinion of Major
General Carter, the commander-in-
chief of the maneuver division.
Five times the cost of this operation
would not measure the value to the
country of the experiment, declared
General Carter. It was the first op-
portunity that the modern army had
to get together all branches of the
service-the infantry, the cavalry, the
artillery, the transportation and sub.
sistence departments, and to make a
thorough test of what had been purely
theoretical estimates Of the proper
balance between them. AS might have
been expected It was soon found that
there was need for considerable re-
adjustment Of the relative numerical
strength of the various branches to
make one perfect whole. This problem
was worked out by the test of actual
practice and General Carter feels that
when he left Texas there had been
brought into being the perfect military
unit which had been 30 long desired
by army strategists.
Future plans Of the department con-
template the creation of number OF
such units In the different military di.
visions which, In skeleton form, will
represent the entire mobile strength
OF the United States army on war
footing.

Rome, Aug 9.--Dr. Petacci, his pri-
vate physician, and DR.. Marchi Afava,
consulting physician at the Vatican,
visited Pope Plus and made a thor

scribed the condition of the pontiff as
relatively satisfactory.
His holiness has suffered a throat
affection, recovery from the weaken
ing effects of which was retarded to a
certain extent by the recent extreme
heat. He suddenly exhibited unex.
pected weakness, necessitating perfect
rest.
The examination revealed heart
fairly strong and respiration reason
ably good, considering the "shortness"
of breath common to stout persons
who are advanced in years.
The pulse was rather intermittent
and the temperature slightly above

Aaron Warm Pleads Guilty to Violat-
ing the Liquor Law.

Yesterday morning after several
trivial cases had beer called up and
disposed of by the Mayor at City
Court, Aaron Warn was called charg'
ed with violating the ordinance
which prohibited the selling of intox-
icating liquors. He plead guilty tc
the charge and asked the mercy OF
the court. Mayor Dukes, while feel
ing sure that he would have been
convicted had he pleaded mot gull
ty,' gave him the benefit Of the plea
of mercy. Sentence was $50 or rs
days in the guard house.
1t seems that on Sunday night a
certain young man engaged with
Warn for some liquor, and gave him
SIS, with instructions to bring back
the change. He failed to return with
either the liquor or the change and
consequently the young man inform
ed the police. A warrant was sworn
out by offer Tickling and/served by
Officer Segrest. In e suit case Warn
had thirteen pints stored away fol
future business, but which is now in
