TRIAL OF THE MNAMARAS OPENS MAY CONTINUE FOR EIGHT MoN

Continued from Second Page.)
through the roaring flames and
through open windows to death on this
sidewalk below. Others clung TO the
window sills, shrieking for the life
nets, until the flames burned their
fingers to the bone and they went
plunging to death, while hundreds OF
spectators groaned and watched the
doomed men. They were powerless
to help.
Aims Of Prosecution.
The prosecution will try 10 prove
that John Mcnamara engineered and
instigated, and James Mcnamara
actually caused the Times disaster. Its
evidence will be driven home by Ortie
McManigal, who is alleged TO have
confessed that he had done hundreds
of dynamite jobs for John Mcnamara,
receiving 5000 for each, and that he
knew Of the plans to destroy the
Times.
All this evidence the defense will
combat with testimony to show that
there never was a dynamite explosion T;
that leaking gas caused the wreckage /;
that the accused men are innocent, the
victims OF a gigantic plot which has
for its object the branding Of organ
lied labor leaders as murderers and
dynamiters
Every effort has been made to fur
ther this idea from the time that the
Times" owned by Harrison Gray
Otis, a bitter and vindictive enemy OF
organized labor charged that dyna-
mite bombs planted by labor had de-
stroyed his newspaper plant, until the
McNamaras we're placed behind the
bars Of the Los Angeles county Jail.
Otis made this charge before the fire
was out in the ruins of the Times. II
has been repeatedly made ever since.
Charge Kidnapping.
Next in the chain OF events came
the arrest of Ortie McManigal, John
and James Mcnamara The McNa-
maras were extradited from the east
without being given a chance to con-
suit counsel and as a result Detective
William J. Burns, who ran down tho
accused while in the employ OF the
National Erecetors' Association, and OF
Merchants and Manufacturers AS
sociation, Of Los Angeles, and Detec-
tive James Hosick of Los Angeles, are
under indictment for kidnapping.
All these elements will enter into the
case, but the first and principal thing

AFTER PAY FOR
TUG DAMAGES
Warner Co. Again Asks Police
Commission to Pay for
Repairs

The Police Commission, at it's reg
ular meeting yesterday afternoon
heard charges against two members
of the force, both accused with miss
ing a report. They pleaded guilty
and as both had good records were let
off with a reprimand.
One said he opened the box and set
the Indicator and later walked away
after closing the door, having forgot
ten 10 pull the lever The other po-
liceman said he sat down and went
to sleep.
The COMMISSIONERS received an in
vitation 10 attend the banquet of the
United Italian Societies at the Clay
ton House. on Columbus Day.
William A. Cannon, of No. 400 Loper
street, made application for a position
as patrolman.
Patrolman Daniel Eakin was
granted permission to accept a re-
ward of 500. paid by the government
for the arrest Of a deserter. The fines
collected in the City Court last week
amounted to $136.13.
William P. White, of the Charles
Warner Company, and Captain ]. w
Betelle, OF the tugboat Taurus, con-
ferred with the commissioners, rela-
tive to the damage the Taurus sus-
tanned by running afoul of the police
and fire alarm cable crossing the
Christiana River at King street. The
tug had to be sent to a boat yard
for repairs as a result of the cable
wrapping around its propeller.
Mr.. White expressed the opinion
that as the cable was the property OF
the Police Department, the commits
sion should pay the cost of the repairs
to the tug.
The commissioners claimed that the
cable was at proper depth and had the
tug been properly managed and not
turned so close to the wharf. the ac-
cident would not have occurred. No
decision was reached and It is likely
that the matter will be referred to
the city solicitor.

Appointed by Taft an Assistant United
States Attorney General.

The announcement in Washington on
Tuesday, Feb ~. That President Taft
had finally nominated William Henry
Lewis, the brilliant Boston lawyer, to
be an assistant United States attorney
general created u sensation in political
circles AT the capital
The first announcement of the presi
dents intention to appoint Mr.. Lewis
to the said position was made previous
to the election last November. but no
definite steps were taken In that direc-
tiUn at the time, and his failure to
name Mr.. Lewis for the position caused
much harsh criticism from the rank
and flo of AfrO-American voters
throughout the country.
William Henry Lewis is one of
the ablest lawyers the race has thus
far produced. He was appointed an

Richmond. Na.-The recent special
session of the Grand United Order of
True Reformers was the most repre-
sentative one ever held by this great
organization. Leading business men
from over twentv-seven states were
present. 1t is remarkable to note the
harmony and general unison among
the delegates to save the organization.
This meeting, consisting of more than
$50 delegates, proves cOnclusively that
the Negro is capable of conserving his
financial interest in a legislative body
The meeting was presided over by
Grand Master a. W. Holmes, who ex-
hibited unusual ability.
Colonel Joseph Button, commission
er of insurance of Virginia, and Isaac
Davenport, his actuary, visited the
grand fountain and were received with
great eclat. Their remarks were preg
nant with sound advice. The colonel
in part said: 81 have great interest
In you people because your organiza-
ton has done more for the uplift of
the Negro than any other fraternity
of your race
The report of the grand master,
which showed that $4,000 had been
raised since last October and that
claims were rapidly being paid
throughout the country, elected great
enthusiasm on the part of the body.
The reports Of Grand Worthy Secre-
tary W. P. Burrell revealed many
facts desired by the delegates He
stated that he had sounded the alarm
for years about the cZar-like proce
dure of W. l.. Taylor. the detlroned
head of the order.
All reports were carefully audited by
men on committees who were fnan-
ciers. Prominent among them were
Professor r. B. McRary, Adolphus
Humbles, estimated to be worth over

dent of the North Carolina A. and NJ.

WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE
BUSINESS WOMAN.
Always Good Policy to Overlook
Trivial Faults Among Your Asso-
clates In the Office.

Not many girls whose work calls
them into constant contact with the
male sex realize the value of silence
about "trifles." II so, there would be
many successful business women
where there are now failures.
20, f1ddlesticksi" exclaims bright
stenographer; Il don't see why we
women have to be contantly humoring
the men; they get all they deserve at
nome. for one will not be haIapered
by being SO careful what | say to the
men workers in our Office"
Independent" the average reader
will say. Not at all; in reality the
most dependent of women, because
she has to depend on the good humor
Of the men who will endure her sharp
remarks and opinions, but who at the
same time mentally class her as
girl whose advancement would mean
constant friction in the office and a
detriment to work While woman
may not like to believe 1t, great deal
depends ON her popularity -.th The
office force in the eyes of her en-
ployer.
II is hstural for men to look on
women wage earners as interlopers.
No matter how broad minded they are
becoming in this respect, the stay at
home" tradition will remain. How
ever, as long as a girl is pleasant and
performs her duties In a satisfactory
manner her presence does not irri-
tate But the moment she begins to
notice trifing faults in others and
their work 1t Is fatal to her. A man
in the office may make all sorts OF
criticisms, but woman. never.
You see, 1t is all because men are
natural born cyclists and cannot help
it. The Independent successful busi-
ness woman realizes this, and firmly
declines to give her personal opinion
on the mannerisms and the work OF
her male associates.
She attends strictly to her business
affairs and is pleasant and courteous,
and while she is constantly striving
for advancement she never for one
