Progressive, Senators Drop Threatened
Fight on Committees.
Washington, April 29.-The senate
formally organized for business by
adopting the list of appointments to
committees drawn up by the majority
of both parties.
The expected fight against the adop.
ton Of the lists threatened by the
progressive Republicans did not de-
velop, Senator La Toilette contenting
himself with reading formal protest
against the selections made by the
regular Republicans.
When Mr.. La Toilette had conclud.
ed the progressive statement Senator
Gallinger. chairman of the committee
on committees, said he was quite con.
tent to let the 'tnsurgent" statement

the list Of committees az framed.
Mechanically. he declared the Gin

committee places. AS matter OF
tact they were given ia places.
The committee list then was adopt
ed with only few scattering noes

of the alleged dynamiters, John ]. Nc.
Namara, James B. Mcnamara and
Ortie McManigal, the true outlines Of

The all prominent feature is the
confession which McManigal is report.

complete form to District Attorney
Fredericks here.
What are claimed to be extracts
from this latest confession have been

Los Angeles, CAL, April 29.-Al
though it has been reported Tor sew
eral days that a confession had been
made in the dynamite conspiracy case
no official confirmation was forthcom-
Ing, bit Ortie f. McManigars actions
tended to confirm the belief that he
would not accept help from the union
attorneys who are to defend the Nc
Namaras, joint defendants 10 the
Times explosion case.
He declined to see Attorney Job
Hartman, former Socialist candidate
for vice president and counsel for the
Mcnamara brothers.
District Attorney Fredericks had
said that the prisoner would see none
of the lawyers associated with the
defense and McManigal later con-
frmed this personally to Hartman at
the Jail.
Hartman upon emerging from the
sheriff's office declared that John 7.
Mcnamara and his brother James are
now the only ones in whose behalf
the defense would center it's efforts.
The only visitors McMa6igal willing
i ~ receives are men from the district
| attorneys Office, Sheriff Hammel and
! operatives Of the detective agency
| that rounded up the alleged conspira-
; tors in the act.
All the detectives who came West
with the prisoners Wednesday called
upon McManigal and found him In a
mood more jovial than at any time
since he is alleged to have made a pre-
liminary confession to William t.
Burns in Chicago.
| E. r. Mills. local agent of Detective
Burns, said that two other arrests
are impending and that they will be
made in the North" probably mean

T. A. McWiliams and Tom Balls of Bessie were locked in the county jail yes- terday morning by Deputies Kennybrook and Chew on charge of murder. It is charged that the two men were implicated in the assassination of Constable w. l.. Staggs at Bessie several days ago. The arrests were made on warrants issued by Coroner Brasher following his investiga- ten into the shooting.
 The inquest was held behind closed doors and Coroner Brasher refused to give out any information in regard to what the witnesses testified He admit ted however, that the evidence against the men, while strong, was circumstan- tial
 Immediately after the arrests were made at the close of the inquest the pris- oners were hurried to Littleton and from there brought to Birmingham. Although there was no demonstration it was feared that trouble would result from the arrest of the two men.
 Coroner Brasher recommended yester- day afternoon that McWilliams be allowed s250o bond, but Solicitor Hefin refused to give his consent. It was at his request also that the evidence at the inquest was withheld from publication. - s

ROBINSON CASE GOES ID HE JURY No Verdict Reached Up to a Late Hour Last
 Night

The case against G. c. Robinson, charged with killing Capt. Victor C. Feet or several weeks ago near station No. C of the fire department, was completed late yesterday afternoon before Judge Frank Cahalan and at late hour last night the jury had not returned a verdict.
 Robinson went on the stand yesterday in his own behalf and told the jury of the incidents of the affair leading up to the killing He said that he was reproved by the wife of Captain Teeter for brush ing his teeth at a window facing the house where the deceased and his wife lived He claimed that he then went straightway to apologize to Captain Teeter for having offended his wife, whereupon the deceased made an effort as if to do him bodily harm, and he fired in self-defense.
 The arguments in the case were con- Ncluded by White Gibson and Ben Davis for the defense and by Joseph R. Tate for the state. The prosecution was opened by J. 0. Smith. A number of visitors were seen in the court room yesterday and ripple of excitement was caused by the exhibition of the blood-stained clotn- ing of Captain Teeter. There was a di- versity of opinion as to the outcome of the case.

WAGE TROUBLES ARE NOT SETTLED

Washington, June 2.-Efforts to mediate the differences between the Southern rail- way and the company's firemen continued today without result and tonight the sit uation apparently Is just what 1t was three days ago. The firemen are hold ing out for 20 per cent increase in wages and other concessions, while the con- pany insists upon compromise.
 Representatives of the f1remen were closeted with the mediators practically all day. Officials of the railway will be called in tomorrow morning.
 Representatives of the Southern's en- gineers, here to asked for an increase of 25 per cent in wages, have not yet ap- peared at the railway offices. It is un- derstood that the engineers do not con- template an attempt to force compliance in the event the company denies their petition,

HEN DAY AGAIN AT
 REDMOUNTA|N CAMP

Hen Day at the tuberculosis camp on Red mountain was a successful event and many friends of the institution con- tributed nberally as was expected. Fur thermore it is understood that many others who wished to send donations from their hen roosts were unable to do so yes terday so an extension of the privilege has been extended over through today.
 The fresh air camp is one of the most notable institutions of the growing Bir- mingham district, and by all means one of the most necessary. The people Of this city have long ago recognized this fact and are glad of the chance to assist furthering it's work. A good many more hens will not oyerrun the camp nor will they make for a superfluity in any way Hence the opportunity is still open for the public to assist in a good and generous cause.
