SOCIALISTS START
 FEDERATION FIGHT
They Want Adoption of Initiative and Referendum And Few Other
 Things.

ATLANTA. Nov. 11.-The socialists in the American Federation of Labor convention have begun their "insur- gent" movement against the present administration of the federation. The first sign of hostility appeared today in the printed record. which showed d resolution proposing that the fedora ton adopt the initiative and referen- dunn in the election of officers. As It would require constitutional amend ment to accomplish this. the propo- nents of the measure are not sanguine of it's adoption. A resolution to ap- propriate fifty thousand dollars for the McNamara defense was introduced last night ten minutes before midnight by Delegate A. J. Gallagher. San Fran - cisco. The time for offering resolutions closed at midnight. It was referred to the committee on the presidents re- port It is regarded as almost certain it will precipitate big fight on the floor, as Gompers and others are un- derstood tO favor raising the amount by private subscription.

IA gen eral attack upon the decree of the circuit court in the dissolution of the American Tobacco company and a specific comparison of the activities of Attorney General Wickersham with those of former Attorney General Harmon in enforcing the sherman anti-tru law against the great com binations, enlivened today's session of the senate committee on interstate commerce. which is investigating the trust problem with a view to new legislation. Senator POmerene of ohio vigorously questioned II. B. Martin. a witness. asking if he knew any jus
 tification for the head of the depart
 ment of justice to take the position that he would not enforce the crimi- nal provisions of the Sherman law. He said he regarded this attitude as most reprehensible. Senator Oliver was the only member of the com mittee to reply to the attack on W7ickersham. He said Wickersham resurrected the law. after it was con- sidered a practically dead letter by his predecessors. particularly by liar mon An incipient outbreak appeared imminent among the members of the but finally the atmosphere cleared and the inquiry continued.

That Number Has Been Se- cured in the McNamara Case After Many Long Weeks of the Most Pains taking Effort.
BROTHER TAKES
 HAND IN WORK
J. J. McNamara Objects to Letting a Gardener Sit on the Jury Because of the Fact He is an English man.

LOS ANGELES. Nov. 17.-The fourth and fifth jurors have been accepted and sworn in the McNamara murder trial which began October III. These two were secured since November seventh when the first three were sworn in. The feature .of the day was the evidence that John J. McNamara is taking a hand in the selection of the jurors who are to try his brother James F. Me Namara for the murder of Charles J. Haggerty. victim of the Times eX- plosiOn of year ago. From his cell in the county jail where he is held pending his trial for murder on a joint indictment with his brother. John ! McNamara sent word that C. A. Heath. being of English birth. would not be acceptable in his Opin ion to try an Irishman. Heath was removed by premptory challenge.
 The two new jurors are J. E. Sex ton. rancher and real estate dealer of Alhambra, a suburb. and William Andre. a carpenter and formerly a 
 any union now.
 The three jurors previously chosen are: Robert Bain. carpenter: F. n Green, orange grower: Byron I-isk. mill owner. Within a few minutes after the new jurors were sworn. the seventh venire was exhausted and a new one of forty men was drawn. This makes 405 men drawn for serv- ice in connection with the case. Of this number about third has been examined. the others being ab- sent from the county. or else were excused for personal reasons by Judge Bordwel in the preliminary eXamina- tion.
 The seventh venire came into court only yesterday afternoon. Four per emptory challenges by the defense and three by the state trimmed the full jury box down to five men when court opened today. The state led off bv excusing A Gribbling. re- tired walnut grower and harness maker who once had difficulty with the Times management over sub scription premium It also excused WiIIett Brunner. member or the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. Clark McLain. Pasadena banker, who said he considered a knock in the Times boost" and expressed ether unfavorable opinions concern ing it.
 The defense. which alternated it's challenges with the state. excused Brewster C. Kenyon capitalist; T. II. Elliott. gardener; C. A. Heath. English farmer: Jacob Lansing ana Elliott Lansing. both supposed bN the defense to have expressed the belief that McNamara is guilty and should be hanged.
