Bailey Highly Indignant.

Senator Bailey was highly indignant
over the Endorsement by the democrats

resignation as member of the Senate
His friends around him, being apprised
of his action, started to argue with
him. Senator Overman and others
begged him not to act so hastily and,
as they thought, Ill advisedly; but he
was stubborn to the last degree.
One of the senators took away the
paper which he had written and la n
down for moment. whereupon Ba ley

New Orleans grand jury against Gen.
BOnilla, Gen. Lee Christmas and Col.

Honduras. charging violation Of the neu-
trality laws of this country, will, it is be-
lieved, be withdrawn, in view Of the

Honduras.
Gen. Maximo Rosales, who represented
President Davila at the peace conference,
probably will be made minister of war in
the new cabinet, and DR.. Alberto Mem
breno, the envoy Of Gen. Boni!la, is ex-
pected to accept the portfolio Of minister
of the interior.
DIR. Fausto Davilla probably will be Sc

Revolutionary Victory

NEW ORLEANS. March 4-The news
that DR.. Francisco Beltran had been
chosen president of Honduras was re-
ceived in New Orleans with marked ap-
probation. While 1t is recognized that the
selection is a victory for the revolution
lists, the Central American colony is
unanimous in acclaiming him the best
possible choice in the present crisis. He
is young man comparatively, and has a
clean political record.
That Gen. Bonilla, leader of the revolu-
tionists, will be the successful candidate
TOR president Of Honduras in October is
not doubted here. He is popular with the
masses in that country. and but for Presi-
dent Zelaya of Nicaragua probably would
have been ruler of Honduras today.
Cen Bonilla left New Orleans on the
filibustering steamer Hornet December 22,
and i'm just little more than a month he
had gained control of the gulf coast of
Honduras, and early in February the

trict attorney filed an affidavit con
corning her refusal to answer the
questions of the grand jury. She
mas used her constitutional right in
refusing to answer but the Burns de-
tectives are using every effort to get
the woman put in a prison cell where
they can get at her alone. They hope
to break her down in spirit as they
nave broken her down in health by
their prosecutions
The defense pleaded for time and
were given four days to make reply

tion. There is much indignation over
the way the woman is being bounded
by detectives. These thugs and gun
men swarmed about the woman the
minute she appeared today. Nc
Laren, the Operative who is giving
Ortie McManigal his daily lesson"
was in the court room and his pres
ence added to the woman's nervous
ness.
In speaking of the case Attorney
JOB Hartman said:
we feel that the grand jury has
no right to force Mrs. McManigal to
testify. The prosecution has no ri ight
to demand that she testify at this
time. Their action is without legal
excuse. If she had been brought be-
fore the grand jury before the in
dictments were issued she might have
been asked to testify. Now the in
dictmentS are ont and the prosecu-
tion is simply trying to extract infor-
nation from her to find out what she
knows before the beginning of the
trial.
Word has come direct from Scot
land Yard, London, that the whole
story of Burns making an important
capture of "Caplan" or Schmidt"
was gigantic fake worked lrp by the
detective for advertising purposes.
AT the district attorneys office, It
was limited at the time that Burns
was taking advantage of his pleasure
trip abroad at the expense of the Los
Angeles tax payers. He simply spread
the fraudulent reports and allowed
the yellow American newspapers do
the rest. Los Angeles newspapers
made a big spread of the fake story
and have carefully refrained from
telling the truth about the fake.
1t is understood Burns will return
via Canada and it is thought he may
avoid the states wherein he is liable
to arrest on the indictment for kid
mapping in Indiana. Another report
is to the effect he has had the In
dianapilis matter arranged so that he
can go directly there and then go
about his errands for his masters
without fear of courts or laws.
James Hosick the Los Angeles police
detective who is also under indict-
ment is about his old haunts with ap-
parently no fear of being troubled by
the authorities. 1t is commented on
that when one of the working class
is under the faintest suspicion of a
crime he is arrested and imprisoned
When the offender happens to be a
detective he is allowed to run at
large.
This unjust discri mination is Ii clip
ing the campaign that is being waged
by the warkerS of Los Angeles and
the prospects are favorable to the
election of Job Hartman and the en-
tire Socialist ticket this fall.
