MANY PERSONS IN DOUBT
Describe the kidnapping Of Nc
Namara by Detective Burns
Many Prominent Speakers Ad-
dress Immense Crowd.

Boston.-The story of how John j.
Mcnamara was taken out of Indiana
by the adroitness of Detective Burns,
told by an eyewitness, held the close
attention Of thousands of union labor
ers on Boston Common.
Cheers and hand clapping were the
only exhibitions of feeling on the
part Of the lasoring men. Twenty po-
licemen stood about the rostrum on
the Charles street side of the Com
mon, but had little to do. When the
speaking was over the unionists ia
yored their chairman, President Will
lam II. OBrien of the Boston Central
Labor Union, by the adoption, by Il
tremendous chorus, Of a resolution.
International Vice President John
Butler of Buffalo told his story OF the
proceedings on April y at the offices
Of the International Bridge and Struc-
tural Iron Workers Union in Indian
apolis, when Mcnamara was arrested
and a search of the Office made.
Several of us were sitting in the
Office he said, when three men en-
tered, said they were detectives, and
that the chief Of police wanted to see
Mcnamara. Mcnamara said All
right and went out to visit the chief,
saying to us as he left, I'll see you
boys again in a few minutes We
have never seen him since.
Then the chief of the detectives of
the city came in and said there was
to be a search for dynamite and for
nitroglycerine | told him if he could
find any he was welcome TO it, for we
certainly did not want any round our
place.
In about - minutes something like
an avalanche struck the place. The
chief of police came in with seven uni
formed men and about the same num-
Der Of detectives. There was one big
man there strutting round with
great air of Importance. He began to
search about the place, looking for pa
pers, so | interfered, saying that | did
not know what right he had to search
our place.
why, don't you know who | am?
I'm Mr.. Burns. Well, we told him we
did not know any such man and that
we would not allow him to make any
search. Then he showed a great blue
revolver on his hip, and the rest OF the
men were armed, so what could we
do?
Then a lucky thing happened. Our
attorney, L. l.. Rappaport, happened
in and we told him the trouble and
that it was up to him. So he told the
men what he knew about the law and
they went off. some of them, and soon
returned with a search warrant
The Rev. \. A. Berle of the Shaw
NUT congregational church, President
William II. O'Brien of the Boston
Central abor Union and John T. But
Ter of Indianapolis were the principal
speakers. John Golden Of Fall River
John ]. Hynes and J. Frank OHare

spoke.

THE DELAWARE FIRES AND
lMPERILS THE PANTHER
Lives of 500 United States Seamen
Endaneer by Huge Shells
from Warship.

Norfolk, Va.-The lives Of 500 men
in the repair ship Panther of the AT
lantic fleet were in uanger when the
battleship Delaware mistook the Pan
ther for the sunken San Marcos, which
was being used as target, and open
ed fire on the repair ship. Angry
complaint has been made TO Admiral
Osterhaus, commander of the fleet,
and it is reported the Admiral has de-
tain of the Delaware.
Naval men do not recall another in
stance where a ship % the United
States Navy with men in her has been
under fire from vessel Of it's own
navy Three heavy shells fell near
the Panther, sending fountains of wa
ter high in the air. At each shot the
gun men of the Delaware were aiming
straighter, and it is likely if fourth
shot had been fired the Panther would
have been pierced and sunk.
The Delaware was firing at the San
Marcos in Tangler Sound from range
of seven miles when the Panther
came in sight and was mistaken for
the San Marcos The Panther had on
board a moving picture apparatus, and
an operator was taking views of the
gun tests.
The Panther's rig made her look
like the San Marcos from distance
OF seven miles, and suddenly shell
from the Delaware struck the water
125 yards from the repair ship. That
was too close to be comfortable, and
the 500 men in the Panther wondered
what was wrong with the gun crew
of the Delaware.
A minute after officers in the Pan
ther saw puff of smoke from the
Delaware, and as they were looking
toward the San Marcos TO see where
the shell would strike the projectile
plowed the water 100 yards from the
Panther. There was almost panic
then, and the officers had TO issue
sharp orders to the men.
A third puff of smoke issued from
the side Of the Delaware and soon the
whistIing of a shell was heard. The
huge missile seemed TO be coming
straight for the Panther. The moving
picture man deserted his machine, and
darted under the protection Of a cabin
There were n tense few seconds
aboard. then seventy-fve yards away
the shell struck the water.
Immediately the captain of the re
pair ship ordered the wireless opera
tor to get in communication with the
captain of the Delaware. There could
be no doubt the gun crew of the bat
tleship had mistaken the Panther for
the San Marcos and the next shot
might send the repair ship to the bot
tom.
Officers hung about the operator as
he flashed his message. for any sec
ond another shell might come sailing
over the water and strike the mark
Firing vas heard from the guns OF
other vessels, but suddenly IL ceased
Admiral Osterhaus ordered all fir
ing stopped for the day when hC
/ learned of the peril the men in the
| Panther had been in. The fleet was
ordered hack 10 Hampton Roads

made for the elaborate September wa

All Will Pass Out Next Jan
uay
THE NEW JUDICIARY CODE
Provides for Their Elimina tion--Judgej
Will Not Lose Their Positions--Wih
Serve in Courts of Appeals
and Districts.

Washington Nov. 2o.-In every state
Of the union there will pass out Of exist
ence in January next historic court
practically as old as the state itself.
On that day seventy-seven United States
circuit courts will cease to do business
at the 276 different places they have
been accustomed TO meet Arrangements
for this change are now being perfected
in Washington and throughout the cir.
cults. The elimination of the circuit
courts was one of the reforms provided
for in the new Judiciary code, enacted
by Congress on March 3, 1911, to become
effective January |, 1912. The code pro-
vides that after the latter date there
should be only the district courts, the
nine circuit courts of appeal and the
supreme courts. The existence Of the
circuit courts since 1901, when the cir
cult courts of appeal were created, has
been regarded as expensive and superhu-
GUS.
The twenty nine circuit judges will not
lose their positions, as they will con-
tinue to sit in the circuit courts OF APP
peal aud help in the district courts. All
the clerks of the circuit courts will have
their positions abolished. At the same
time restrictions will be placed upon the
amount that district court clerks may
draw as salary. Under a special law, the
clerk Of the district and circuit courts
in eastern Kentucky was entitled 10 49,
500 and fees for each place in which Ell
Their court sat. As each court sat in
five different places, he was entitled
to $4,000 a year if the fees amounted
TO that much. Other clerks were I'M.
usually favored by special legislation
Hereafter it will be impossible for
clerk to receive more than $4,000.
The passing away of the circuit courts
is only one of the reforms of the new
code. After Jan. the chief Justice
of the United States will receive $4,000
per annum and each associate justice
Sl4,500. Under the new code, jurors
for federal courts will receive their SUM
mons by registered mail instead of by
personal visits by deputy United States
marshals and the government will have
six peremptory challenges in selecting
federal court juries instead OF three.
Still another reform win come in the
shape of a prohibition against members
of Congress praeticing before the court
of claims here.
