HAS BURNS TIPPED OFF
PROSECUTIONS PLANS?

LOS ANGELES. Cal, Nov 22.-
Should j. B. Mcnamara be acquitted
in his present trial for murder, in con-
nectlon with the Times building ex-
plosion, the prosecution will put the
tive william j. Burns.
Friction between Burns and Dis
trict Attorney Fredricks has existed
ever since the former, in magazine
articles, took all the credit for the ar
rest of the McNamaras, but greatly
increased today as a result of a series
OF interviews given by Burns in In
dianapolis. which have just arrived
here. There the private detective, the
prosecution here alleges. for advertis-
ing purposes. revealed several vital
secrets, which 1t had been expected
TO conceal in order TO surprise the
defense.
AS "A result District Attorney Fred
ricks' detectives tell him that Nc
Namara will be absolutely able TO
prove an alibi along certain lines, and
he Is very angry.-Burns has not kept
the prosecution here advised of his
movements in the east, especially in
indianapolis, with the result that
there have been a number OF miscues
in the litigation there. II is believed
that the federal grand jury would
have turned the evidence over TO the

The imperialists suspect foreigners

Taking advantage of the prevailing
confusion, these bandits are raiding
even large towns and country travel
is attended with the utmost peril on
account of them. Not only are they
greedy for plunder, but their wanton
cruelty is almost unbelievable.

SUGGESTS PENSION FOR
DESTITUTE WIDOWS

Miss Margaret Dupont, acting Sec
retary Of the Associated Charities, In
her annual report, presented to the
society, Tuesday afternoon, showed
that help was given to 2,45Q families
during the past year, an increase OF
thousand over the previous year,
and that $1S.524.54 was paid out for
charity.
Miss Dupont said that the high cost
of living and low wages paid for un-
skilled labor had caused an increase
in the number of applicants for char
ity. The society also had problem
on it's hands in knowing how TO deal
with the man who deserts his family
with the comfortable thought that his
wife and children will be wellcared
for by the charitable institutions. To
discourage desertion, Miss Dupont
suggested the taking of steps to pro-
vide legislation whereby the RESPONSE
bility of prosecuting the erring hus-
band could be lifted from the
shoulders of the wives. She also
thought destitute widows should be
pensioned by municipalities.
Officers elected for the following
year are as follows: President, J. L..
Hudson; first vice-president, DR.. FL.
N. Tprrey; second vice-president.
George w. Heigho; treasurer, NJ. W..

MRS. PATTERSON'S TRIAL
UNDER WAY IN DENVER
Attorneys For Woman Who
Killed Husband Sure She
Won't Be Hanged.

DENVER, Col, Nov. 22.-With a
full jury completed and sworn. the
opening statement of the state In the
trial of Mrs. Gertrude Gibson Pat
terson, who is charged with murder
ing her husband last September, was
delivered in Judge Aliens court to-
day.
When court opened, Judge Hilton,
of counsel for the defense, had not
decided whether TO make his opening
statement now or after the state has
rested its case.
The state will Immediately intro
duce evidence intended to prove that
Mrs. atterson killed her husband out
of sheer desire to be rid of him and
that his taking-off was the culmina-
ton Of repeated threats which she
made to kill him If he persisted in
bringing an action against Emil
Strouss, Chicago millionaire cloth
ier, for alleged alienation of Mrs. Pat
tersons affections.
On the other hand, the defense will
attempt TO prove that Patterson con-
niYed at the debasement- of his wife
as source of income: that he used
her-as All instrument to bfackmatf
the Chicago millionaire and that he
coupled with her depreciation long
and repeated brutalities. which forced
her in defense OF herself to kill him.
IL will also be claimed by the de-
Tense that Gertrude Gibson Patter
son, when she fired the fatal shots
that ended Pattersons life, was In
capable of distinguishing between
right and wrong This plea is really
emotional insanity. but the defense
will hinge its plea for acquittal upon
the act of killing in self-proteeuon.
There is an overwhelming convic-
ton abroad in Denver that Gertrude
Patterson will not be hanged: that
The jury will not return verdict OF
guilty of murder In the first or second
degree, and that If the state secures
conviction on the simple ground of
assault il will have scored a victory.
I'm the selection OF the jury the
state peremptorily challenged eleven
ont or the forty.four veniremen At
torney o. ~ Hilton, who represents
Mrs Patterson, used his prerogative
OF summary challenges against l3
prospective jurors, and not once did
he lnterpose a challenge for cause.
The array, as finally selected. are

ried, the defense having insisted on
this feature, In the belief that men OF
family will be more impressed with
