MAN PROMISED GOOD
PAY FOR TESTIMONY
FRISCO NEWSPAPER MAN TELLS
SOMETHING INTERESTING IN
DARRoW CASE

Los Angeles. Calf. July 1S-Fre-
mont Older, editor of the San Francis
co Bulletin, was asked only half
dozen questions on cross-examination
today by District Attorney Fredericks
in the bribery trial Of Clarence Oar
row. The course of the prosecution
was a distinct surprise to the defense.
Mr.. Older was asked concerning the
time he furnished bail for John r.
Harrington, when the latter was ar
rested in San Francisco for contempt
of court in refusing to answer ques-
tion propounded by the Los Angeles
county grand jury. At that time, said
Mr. Older, he and Harrington discuss
ed the visit of D. K. Ingersoll to the
editor with what was purported to be
valuable evidence of the Mcnamara
defense.
"Ingersoll told me" said the wit
ness that his wife, who was a wit
sess for the state, had been promised
a house and lot by the prosecution.
l. thought at the time that Ingersoll
had been sent by Burns to involve me
in the case"
Lincoln Steffens was called next, but
was not in attendance. John R Har-
rignton, one of the states chief wit
nesses, denied that he had ever told
Attorney LeCompte Davis that there
was no ground for charges of bribery
against any one connected with the
Mcnamara defense and that no cor
ruptions had been practiced.
H. W. Pohlman of Seatt e, business
agent of the Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers union, cestified that
Harrington had told him there was
no basis for the bribery charge
against Darrow. Pohlman was recent
ly involved in contempt proceedings
for refusing to answer questions be
fore the federal grand jury, in connec-
tion with the so-called dynamite con-
spiracy investigation.

Juarez. Mex. July 1S.--Activities Of
the citizens vigilance committee or
ganized to preserve order during the
passage Of the city from rebel to fed
eral control, led today to the report
that the iHsurrecoos would evaeuase
Juarez within 4S hours. The yubels
admit that they intend to abandon
Juarez, moving the garrison o. 4cl
men here to Casas Grandes, 141 miles
southwest on the Mexican Northwest
ern railroad, but have made no an
nouncement as to the time for their
proposed departure. The local vigil
lance organization, however. was busy
today preparing for change.
Juan w. Medina, who once was
mayor of Juarez, is in charge. 1t is
expected that when General Huerta,
the government commander-in-chief,
arrives in Juarez. he will respect the
neutrality Of the vigilance body.
The fact that dynamiting crew Of
rebels was ia miles south Of here at
Montezuma, today on the Mexican
Central railroad had tendency to
counteract the idea of an immediate
evacuation Of Juarez. It is believed
that General Pascual Orozco will
await the return Of his detail of men
and the complete destruction Of the
railroad up to the international line
before ordering the abandonment of
the town. General Orozco himself
viii go southwest to Casas Grandes,
the new rebel capital and base, to-
day. If the rebel general does not
abdicate his position as chief of the
insurrectos, as has frequently been
reported of late, it is considered most
likely that he will go to some seclud-
ed place on the Mexican Northwest
ern whence his whereabouts or move
ments could not easily be traced.
There is every indication that the
federals will move their main forces
and artillery north to Juarez over the
Mexican Central railroad, building
the road slowly. just as they did on
the way from Torreon to Chihuahua
City. Big government forces also are
moving northwest along the Mexican
Northwestern from the city Of Chi
huahua, but they must contend with
burned bridges.

ALLEN OPENED THE PACKAGE
ASSISTANT SECRETARY SAID TO
HAVE FOUND sPLurrsR.
ING BOMB.
SAYS IT is NOT TRUE
HE EXHIBITS PAIR or uficAM-
AGED HANDS TO PROVE
HIS STATEMENT

Washington. July 1S.-A circum-
stantial story of an attempt on the
life of President Taft is being denied
vigorously today by White House Of
ficials and Chief Wilkie of the secret
service. It was said that bomb
wrapped in a package was received
late yesterday at the executive Of
fices and placed upon the desk of
Sherman Allen. one of the White
House assistant secretaries, who has
just been appointed assistant secre-
tary of the treasury. The package
was, of course, intended for the presi-
dent, but packages and letters never
reach him without first passing
through the hands Of a secretary, and
Mr. Allen opened it The report was
that as Mr.. Allen unwrapped the
package he discovered an internal
machine, said to have been charged
with dynamite and with fuse sputter-
ing which he quickly extinguished
with his hands.
Mr.. Allen emphatically denies the
story as do all the other White
House officials. Chief WYkie of the
secret service, who is charged with
guarding the life of the president,
also denies 1t. 1t has always been the
policy Of the secret service and White
House officials to deny publicity to
any incident which savors of an at
tempt at violence upon the president.
The story as published is pronounced
wholly unfounded
When Secretary Allen reached his
desk at the White House this morn
ing he denounced as absolutely untr lie
the story of having opened an infer
nal machine intended for the presi-
dent.
"fhe thing is complete noax," he
said. There is not word Of truth
in it. have not a burn on my
hand from extinguishing the fuse"
Mr.. Allen held out two perfectly I'M
damaged members to prove his state
ment. The published story declared
he had been burned putting out the
fuse.
Moreover continued Mr.. Allen,
81 do not open the mail. The whole
thing is such an absurd aoax that l
do not even intend to issue state
ment denying it. l am disgusted-

other senatorial primary in which his
Iepublicanism is to be tried and a

electors. He proposes that electors
for both sides stand by the result. Mr..
Norris made the proposal in reply to
criticism in his state and published
demands that he support President
Taft or get off the republican ticket.
Il am believer N the recall, said
Mr.. Norris in his letter. Il am will

the washroom. After that she was
not missed until the train arrived in

the hunt for the missing woman be-

placed on board the train, and quick
run made back to Albuquerque. where
she was rushed to st. Joseph's hospl-

respected citizens of San Miguel
county, died early this morning at his
home in La Questa. MIR. Madrid was
20 years of age. He is survived by
his wife, four sons and one daughter.

republicans of New Mexico. Though
he never held office, he was always
one of the active workers. La Cues
ia has always been the strongest re-
publican precinct in the strongest re-
publican county in the state. This
is largely due to Mr.. Madrid's hard
work for the good of the party and,
as he believed, for the good of the
state. Mr.. Madrid last evening be-
came suddenly ILL., A doctor was
summoned from Las Vegas but before
his arrival the sick man had died.
