statement late today giving his views
as to the Mcnamara trial, and especi-
ally what brought about its termina-
ton. The same follows:
I'm a spirit Of indifference TO every
thing in the Mcnamara cases save
the facts and the law appliable TO II,
thereto, i deem It to the interest of
the court and to this community that
| should make a brief public state
ment regarding the circumstances OF
the abrubt close of these cases, to-
gether with sufficient comment to in
dicate my views as to such circum-
stances This is done in the hope of
correcting, If possible. some miscon-
ceptions due to erroneous publica-
tions and publishing Of articles In
newspapers on the second instant over
the signature of Lincoln Steffins.
I'm the first place, the clamorous
suggestion that the termination of the
cases was due to the efforts of him

took to Influence the officers OF the
court-other than the Judges with
out justification in fact
Steffens Featured "Steffens."
81 also wish to denounce the claims
of that gentleman, and Of other per
sons acting for him. that the change
of pleas from not guilty to guilty was
due to his efforts as groundless and
untrue. He is correct in the state
ment that the court was not a party
to any negotiations for what he terms
a compromise of these cases. but
there is no ground for any claim that
an agreement in the matter. The dis
trict attorney acted entirely without
regard to Mr.. Steffens, and on lines
decided upon before the latter ap'

Bribery Caused Termination.
"As to the defense, the public car
rely on it that the developments OF
last week as to the bribery and at
tempted bribery of jurors In the James
h. Mcnamara case were the efficien,
cause of the change of pleas which
suddenly brought these cases to al
end. The district attorney could have
had James b. McNamara's plea oi
guilty long ago If he had been will

brother. but he refused, insisting thai
the latter was guilty and should suf-

"The first proposition from those
interested in the defense were thai
James B. Mcnamara should change
his plea from not guilty to guilty, or
condition that he should not be SEN

should go free. The district attorne,

Gomez, whose rebellion at Juchitan
resulted in clash between President
Madero and the governor of Oaxaca,
was lynched this afternoon at Rim
con Antonio. Eight of Gomez par
tisans met a like fate.
Gomez, who was on his way to the
capital, accompanied by ten Of his
followers, was taken from the train
at Rincona Antonia, OaXaca, ycster-
day and placed in Jail by order Of
Governor Benito Juarea, in spite of

We're taken from the Jail by mob
of residents of the little town, augu-
mented by hundreds from the neigh
boring regions, marched two miles
from town and shot to death.
Noting the ugly temper of the peo-
pie and anticipating trouble the To-
cal authorities reported the situation
TO Governor Renito Juarez, who was
in san Geronimo. about forty miles
from Rincona Antonio. He secured
the consent OF General Merodio and
sent troops to the village. Before the
troops arrived, however, the guard of
nine rurales comprising the entire
military force Of the town, had bat
tied with the mob of a thousand or
more, had been overpowered by the
rabble, and the prisoners were carried
off into the hills.
Soldiers Find Bodies.
What the fate of the latter might
have been is problematical, but II was
hastened by the approach Of the troop
train. The mob had stopped with its
prisoners at little station. At the
train appeared It was recognized as
a troop train, and without waiting
longer, the prisoners were riddled by
bullets, and the assassins fled into the
hills. Only the bodies Of their vic
tins were encountered by the soldiers
when they alighted from the cars.
Paraded Streets.
Reports from San Geronimo to-
night were that mobs Of OaXacans
paraded the streets shouting "vivi,
Juarez; vivi, lber Oaxaca and inde-
pendence."
Among the lynchers were many
former followers of Gomez who de-
clared that he had betrayed them.
Numerous commissions are reported
to have called upon the governor and
assured him of their loyalty and sup
port.

ALL OF THE GOULD
PROJECTS.
KUHN. LE0D CO. IS NAMED
REIMBURSEMENT of the Railroad May
Mean Appointing of
Receiver.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-"Financial
readjustment and reorganization" Of
the Wabash railroad was determined
upon at a meeting of the directors
today. The announcement caused
something of surprise It having
been generally believed that the re-
organization plan Of the Wheeling a.
Lake Erie and the Wabash Terminal
roads would be accomplished, there
by reducing Wabash's financial bur-
den.
Winslow S. Pierce, once a promi
nent figure in all Gould projects re-
turned to his early affiliations as
chairman of the Wabash board and
reorganization committee. succeed
ing u. Il. Jeffrey, who continues as
a director. Other new men in the
board are Edwin IIawley. who comes
in not because of any interest in Wa
bash, but as practical railroad man.
Robert Goelet and Alvin w. Kerch,
president of the Equitable Trust
company, which is trustee of the
first and refunding and extension
mortgages of the Wabash road.
Kuhn-Loeb Interested.
One of the unexpected incidents OF
the reorganization is the naming oi
Kuhn, Loeb and company as syndi-
cate owners. That firm own a part,
if not all tho six millions for which
the Wabash Is guarantors, but in
PRODUCTION into the reorganized COM
pany is believed in many Wall street
quarters to have some deeper signi-
ficance. Connections between the
Kuhn, Loeb and company and the
Goulds have not been friendly since
the unexpected withdrawal of the
bankers from Missouri Pacific finan-
cling early in the year. Although one
of the leading interests in the Wa
bash reorganization is authority for
the statement that the readjustment
will not involve receivership, that
point is yet to be settled. 1t will sot
be definitely decided until those who
are to assume control of the property
have made a careful examination in
TO its financial conditions.
Interest to BE Paid.
Semi-annual interest on about s4,-
100000 of four per cent refunding
bonds fall due Jauary 1. 1912. Repre-
sentatlves of the road say every pro-
vision to meet this interest has boon
made and the recent course of the
bonds in the stock market reflected
! these assurances. Today however
on the news of reorganization the
| bonds as well as the common and
preferred shares, broke sharply with
only partial recovery. Dealings in the
! bonds were unusually heavy, consti-
tuting the feature Of trading in that
division of the market. 1t is gener-
ally believed in financial circles that
control of the property has been
wrested from the Goulds and the
fact that Chairman Pierce occupies
similar position with the Western
Maryland. once Gould line. but now
owned by the Rockefellers, gave rise
to the thought that It might be ac-
quired by those interests
The Wabash close connection with
| Delaware, Lackawanna & Western at
Buffalo seems TO make such con.
nection plausible, but officials of the
latter road deny any knowledge OF
such a connection.

UNDERWOOD DISSAPPROVES
DEMOCRATIC LEADER SAYS TAFT
Is TRYING TO OVERSHADOW
THE TARIFF QUESTION.
LEADER mann APPROVES
"ShOws That President Is on the Side
Of the People and Not the
Trusts" He Declares.

WASHINGTON, Dec 5.-President
Taft's message on the trusts was read
in both branches of congress today.
and was generally well received, The
presidents objection to a repeal of
the Sherman law was approved by
some of the leaders Oh both sides, al
though the democrats held that his
first message should have dealt with
the tariff.
Democratic Leader Underwood said
the president and the administration
was trying to overshadow the tariff
with trust issues.
The message is an able one from
the presidents standpoint" said Mr.
Underwood. but we feel that the
sounding message should have dealt
with the tariff. There seems to be
an effort on the part of the presi-
dent and the administration to force
the repeal of the Sherman law, but
there may be supplemental action to
define it. ] do not think he favors
an early corporation act"
Mann. Praised II.
Speaker Clark said he could not
discuss the message until he had
studied it thoroughly.
Republican Leader Mann, who has
not always agreed with the president.
praised the message.
"It is probably the strongest ut
terance President Taft has ever
made" he said. 1T shows that he
is on the side of the people; that he
is not controlled by the trusts, and
that he does not wish to cause un-
due violence to commissions"
Much Applause.
In the house the reading of the
message was interrupted by applause
from the republicans. The clerk was
droning the document, a majority of
the members were following by read
ing printed copies which had been
distributed to their desks.
The senate heard the reading of
the measure with its usual dignifled
attention, and then adjourned in re-
spect to the memories of Representa-
| tives Madison of Kansas and Latla of
Nebraska, whose deaths were an
nounced by a committee from the
house.
For lack of something to do, the
senate will not meet until Thursday
afternoon and will then adjourn un-
