LOS ANGELES. Oct 12.-Capital

This issue was fairly demonstrated
as playing a part in the trial Of Jamos

counsel for both sides depreeating the
attempt 10 make the national indus
trial situation factor in the deter

Judge Walter Bordwells ruling that
both sides are within their legal
rights in determining the attitude OF
veniremen towards the union labor
movement is capable Of only one in
terpretation-that the widest latitude
shall follow each prospective Juror.
AS a result of this. il is probable that
a jury will not be sworn for three
months.

STRONG DEBATE
 ON RECIPROCITY Hilliard and Pierian, High School Societies, Walk
 Off With H0nOrs
Taft is right about it after all.

Indisputable proof of the benefit of Canadian reciprocity was given yesterday afternoon at the High school The occa- sion was the semi-annual clash of the lit- erary societies of that renowned prep" school, and when the smoke had cleared away the Hilliard boys society and the Pierian club for girls were found to be the conquerors. The Yancy boys organi- zation and the Aglaia Girls society were the unfortunates. and the Clio Girls club broke even on the honors by having their president as mistress of ceremonies.
 The subject of the joint debate was: Resolved, That Canadian Reciprocity Would Be Beneficial to the United States" and the undeniabe assertion that it is was successfully shown by Lloyd Bowers, the speaker for the Hilliard, and Miss Frances Williams, the debatress for the Pierian. The negative side of the question was gamely but vainly argued by Walter Orcutt, representing the Yan- oey, and Miss Blanche Frazier of the Aglaia.
 The auditorium of the High school was more than filled by the members of the student party and the numerous visitors who were present for the occasion. For days and days the debating teams had been polishing up on their syllogisms, culling points from Taftian and Canonic speeches which have been going the rounds, and preparing generally for the battle AS a result the debate was ad- judged one of the most successful and one of the hardest fought in the history of national politics. and everybody who heard it was delighted.
 The next big event to which the High school scolars and their fond parents and friends are looking forward to is the annual Shakespearean play, which will be a big feature of commencement week. "The Tanning of the Shrew" has been chosen for presentation, and the cast se- lected has been rehearsng steadily. Miss Mary Todd will be seen in the title role and George Cox will assume the tanning duties of Petruchio. Oother events of commencement will be the brilliant spring festival of the Euterpean. which will coin eide with the coming of Victor Herbert and the regular session class day exer- ciSas

STEEL PLANT ID
 CLOSE TONIGHT All Construction Work to
 Be Continued TO RESUME IN JUNE Large Number of Men Released at Steel plant will Find Employ ment in the Big Construc-
 tion Work

Frank H. Crockard, vice president and Iron and Railroad company announced last night that the Ensley rail mill will be closed down tonight. The reason given in the statement of MT. Crockard is that the company has filled all the orders available for immediate rolling.
 He places an optimistic sentence in his announcement which indicates that the mill will resume some time in June, de- pending upon the success of negotiations for rail orders now under way. He also says new construction work will be con tinued without interruption.
 The official announcement of MT. Crock ard is as follows:
 Having completed all of our rail con- tracts available for immediate rolling, it is necessary to temporarily suspend the operations of the Ensley rail mill, Satur- day evening" April 29, 1911. It Is not prob able that operations will be resumed be- fore some time in June. There are sever al contracts under negotiation which, If closed, may alter the situation.
 The Ensley blast furnace department will continue to operate two furnaces. No change is contemplated in the status of the Bessemer blast furnaces.
 "Orders now on hand seem to indicate continuance of operations at the Besse- mer rolling mills.
 "The present large construction forces on new work will be continued without Interruption.
 Every effort will be made to maintain the ore and coal mining departments on the present basis of production"
 MT. Crockard in giving out his state ment. which will throw a large number of men out of employment, said he was perosnally very sorry to give the bad news to the city. He said, however, that every effort would be made to take care of as many men in the construction de- opinion that the construction work would cut deeply into the number of workmen released.
 The plant employs several hundred men, the exact number being unknown even to the company by reason of the constant changes taking place.
 The plant has been operating constantly for 10 months, having been closed in June of last year for necessary and imperative repairs. In 1908 the mill was closed for 14 weeks, while in 1909 the plant was down several weeks.
