Both Sides Announced All Evidence is in and the Government States it Has Nothing to Offer in Re buttal
ONE DEFENDANT
 SENT TO JAIL
Judge Anderson Scathingly Rebukes John T. Butler, Claiming He is a Deliber- ate Perjurer; Discharges Clarence E. DoWd
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArCHl

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 17.-John T Butler of Buffalo vice president of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers was locked in jail tonight after his bond of s1OOO0 had been increased to s15,0OO, and after the, court said he had committed perjury in testify ing in his own behalf as a defendant in the dynamite conspiracy" trial.
 Both the prosecution and defense rested their cases today and there is a prospect that the case will be in the hands of the jury in eight days Clarence E. Dowd of Chester, N Y, formerly an organizer of the In ternatio Association of Machinists of Detroit. was discharged because of insufficient evidence. Butler denied any knowledge of an appropriation by the union of 5000 a month to John J. McNamara and also asserted that he had made no investigation of the charges against the McNamaras at Los Angeles. These statements caused the judge to conclude that he was fabricating. Federal Judge Anderson delivered from the seat a scathing arraignment of what he termed the display that has taken place here the last two weeks"
 T don't believe said he, referring to the stories of riots, assaults and dynamiting told on the witness stand. and if I did I would not have much hope for this country-that organized labor stands for the things that have been shown here
 This man Butler took the stand today and swore to things he knew were not true, and everybody here knew he was committing perjury. There are few people in this coun- try who must be told that law is law and if there is any gentleman in this court room who feels that the shoe fits him, let him put it on. I have never seen a display such as has taken place here the last two weeks bench for the last thirty nine years" Judge Andersons remarks were made after the jury had been retired for the day and after Dowd had been discharged on the ground that suf- ficient evidence did not exist to con- vict him. Dowd was the only de- IenUdnI to De O1SCIdTSeQ, leaving IOrty men whose cases will go to the jury. Butler, early in the day, entered a general denial that he knew of any dynamite plots. He particularly de- nied knowledge that the union ap- propriated 5000 month to John J. McNamara, which the government charges was used to defray the ex- penses of the dynamiters. Check books in which the stubs recorded the payment to McNamara, while Butler was a member of the executive board, were produced
 Do you mean to say that 5000 a month was paid of the unions funds and that you never heard of it?" But Ter was asked
 T never knew of money being used for the carrying on of explosions" he replied.
 Were you interested enough in the unions welfare to investigate after the McNamaras were taken to Los Angeles and charged with the murder of twenty persons" ?"
 'T made no investigation" he re- piled

This Together With Shirt and Vest Identified as Belonging to Lawrence Prove Conclusively Death of AviatOrS
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1spArcHl

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 17.-Frag clothing washed ashore and promptly identified proved to practical conclu siveness today that Aviator Horace Kearney and his reporter companion Chester Lawrence, met death soon af- ter they started last Saturday on their proposed flight to San Francisco. The circumstances of their death will prob ably always remain a hidden secret of the sea. They may have perished within a few hours after they vanished on Saturday afternoon in the mists off Poinc Firmin, or they may have chung desperately to the fragile craft through the stormy night and the next day.
 Judging from the position of the wreckage which gave today the first definite clew of their fate, they died almost within shouting distance of the shore, and probably their bodies now rest in the tangled morass of kelp beds near Redondo Beach.
 Wreckage of the hydro -aeroplane was found today in F'isherman's Cove, four miles south of Redondo Beach by Paul Benzhaf, a yuong sheet metal worker and two companions. The wreckage consisted of a five foot wing pontoon, the companion piece of the miles off Redondo and the fragment of wing tip which was probably wrenched off the flying machine at the same time the pontoon went adrift
 Benzhaf, and his companions found the aerOplane fragments on the rocks which protude their jagged tops above the water at low tide.
 Nearby the searchers picked up a light short and gray checked vest Charles Day, the builder of Kearney's aeroplane "Snookums'' promptly ident- fled the pontoon. Glen Martin. who undertook a dangerous hydro aero plane flight search for Kearney on Sunday in the face of a gale declared the vest is a part of the clothing Lawrence wore when he boarded the aeroplane. The shirt and vest were ripped and torn, indicating the haste and desperation with which the wearers cast off the impedimenta to battle with the sea- The pontoon was bat tered and dented and the condition of the fragmentary wingtip also gave evidence of the terrific flashing given the "Snookums" by the waves.

Pastor Was Surprised.

The pastor of a church in this city
went to call on one of his Pensioners
who lived in a single room in club,
house. He raped on the door. There
was no answer for moment and then
a rather suppressed voice said:
'Wait minute. l can't let you il
now-but wait minute"
He waited. After what seemed sew.
eral minutes he heard the voice again:
Nov stand up close to the door, ant
when l open it come in as quickly a!
you can"
1t was the pastors first call, and he
began to wonder what sort of Black
Hand society or bombmaking club he
was to visit. His worst fears seemed
about to realize, for as the door was
opened he was met by streaming RED
light and an evil smell.

State Form Is Proper.

That standard fire insurance poll
cies issued in Wisconsin which do not
conform in every respect to the
standard form adopted and on file in
the office of the state insurance de-
partment are issued in violation of
law. is the statement issued by Attor-
ney General Bancroft in response to
inquiry made by Insurance Commits
sioner H. L. Ekern.
The opinion follows:
The requirement of section 1871,
"a that all policies shall conform in
all particulars as to blanks. size of
type etc. with the printed form filed
in your Office, was evidently de-
signed to more completely carry out
the purpose above stated, and l find
nothing in the statutes requiring you
to approve forms of policies not con-
tanning blanks corresponding in size,
etc. to those in the form on file in
your Office"

Everybody in the Car Stared at Her

place. Cats we're being taken out Of
baskets and boxes, cages were being
lined and decorated, and attendants
were hurrying back and forth.
An official looking woman With a
hand full of papers came rust ng by.
Helen stopped her with timid:
Can you tell me where I'll find
cage 604?"
Third isle-turn TO your left"
1912" read the number on the cage
at the end of the third isle. White
bIotting paper was on the bottom and
a little red velvet cushion in one cor
ner
With some difficulty, Helen got
Pussy Purrmew into the cage. She
was thoroughly frightened, and hud-
died back in the corner, with eyes
dark with fear and big as saucers.
Later Helen strolled around among
the cages. There were long-haired,
short-haire1, silver, blue, white, black,
orange, coon, Siamese, Manx and many
other kinds of cats.
Many Of the cages were gay with
prize ribbons won at previous shows,
and silver cup was in the cage with
one of the languid white haired beau
ties.
Helen went home full of interest and
excitement. What if Pussy Purrmew
should win a prize? She was entered
of course in the kitten class and
Helen had seen no other kitten that
seemed superior.
AS yet she had not told Warren.
When Mrs. Stevens had first asked
her to exhibit the kitten, Helen had
spoken to him about it. He had only
shrugged his shoulders with
We'll, I should think you'd find a
better way to spend your time. And
that cat'Il never get a prize. It's good
enough for Winifred to maui around,
but it won't stand a chance beside
those show cats. Don't fool yourself
| about that"
And now Helen determined that if
Pussy Murrmew did not win a prize
she would say nothing to Warren
about having shown her. She would be
back in three days and Warren would
probably not miss her before then.
When she returned to the show, the
kitten greeted her joyously, rubbing

Married Life
the Third Year
By MABEL HERBERT URNER

"But you think she'll get enough
air that way?' asked Helen anxious
ly, as she fastened down the per-
forated lid of the. bandbox in which
Pussy Purrmew had been protesting
ly placed.
Sure, ma'am, but I can make 'em
larger If you want" and Della thrust
the scissors into one of the holes.
"Oh. don't-don't! You might strike
her! Wait, I'll do that!" taking the
scissors from her. Now, I've made it
too Target as little pink nose ap-
peared at the hole. ooh, / do wish
she wouldn't cry so" when with a pit
eous new the pink nose appeared at
another hole.
She'll be all right, ma'am," reas-
sured Della, slipping the shawl around
the box and fastening it securely.
A few moments later Helen, carry
ing the bandbox with much care, was
on her way to the exposition hall,
where the cat show opened that day.
1t was due to Mrs. Stevens plead
ings that Pussy Purrmew was to be
exhibited. She was one of the Off
GERS of a prominent club, and she in
sisted every time she called. on Helen,
that the kitten was a rarely fine sill
yer Persian, and should be shown.
Helen had protested that she knew
nothing of exhibiting kittens. But
Mrs. Stevens had promised to make all
the arrangements, enter her, prepare
the cage, everything only Helen
would allow her to be exhibited.
Mrs. Stevens was also to send after
her. But this morning when the mes
senger boy came Helen was afraid to
trust the kitten in his care and de-
cided to take it herself.
But it was an embarrassing trip.
Everybody in the cad stared at her GU
riously when from the bandbox came
the sound of eager scratching and
plaintive news.
When she reached the hall Helen
was bewildered by the long row of
cages and the general confusion of the
