been received by the commission. More
cars. it is said, should be run between
800 and 8 am. and 4:30 and pm, and
the services should be more regular

UNION OFFICIALS TRICKED.
Government Officials Hear Talk of Off
GERS in Structural Ironworkers'
Union Headquarters.

indianapolis, lnd.-Whatever Frank
M. Ryan and many other indicted union
officials have said in their office about
the dynamite conspiracy since last
October is alleged to have been learned
by the government through a phono-
graphic device discovered Saturday in
the headquarters of the International
Association of Bridge and Structural
lronworkers.
The apparatus, hidden under a
drawer in the desk about which Ryan,
the president; Herbest S. Hockin, the
secretary-treasurer, and J. 4. Butler,
first vice president, and other officials
conferred concerning their defense and
pleas is said to have enabled two gov
eminent stenographers in room below
to take daily reports of the converse
ton.
The use of the apparatus was dis
closed when the government decided it
was no longer of value, because a
woman clerk in Ryan Office was heard
to say: "Well, 1 suppose they are
hearing now whatever we say
That, with statements by Ryan,
convinced Assistant District Attorney
Clarence Nicholas that the apparatus
no longer was useful.
The discovery of the apparatus was
made soon after the government had
received intimations that some of the
defendants were ready ''to tell all they
knew

COLOMBIA OBJECTS TO KNOX
Minister Says secretary's Visit At Thi:
Time Is Inopportune.

Washington.-A grave diplomatic sit
uation between the United States and
Colombia has been precipitated by the
publication of letter which Senior Pc
dro Del Ospina, the Colombian minis
ter, has written to Acting Secretary
Huntington Wilson of the state depart
ment, suggesting that it might be Gin
opportune" of Secretary Knox to visit
Colombia on his tour of Central Amer
lea.
The Colombian minister, first drawing
attention to the fact that the views
are his own and not officially those of
his government, seriously criticizes the
United States for not submitting to
arbitration the differences with Colon
bia, growing out Of this government s
acquisition of the Panama canal zone.
Received AS Personal Insult.
Inasmuch as the letter admittedly is
the personal expression of the minister
it was received at the state depart
ment as a personal insult to this gov
eminent. No action has been taken
but the incident is known to have stir
red officials to such an extent that the
recall of the Colombian minister is ex
pected. 1t is believed a termination
of diplomatic relations between this
country and Colombia is in prospect
Acting Secretary Wilson had advised
Senior Ospina of the probable itinerary
of Secretary Knox. What is said tC
have particularly aroused the Colon
ban minister was a reference to tn,
republic of Panama in the itinerary, Z
country whose independence Colombo
never has recognized.
A tentative itinerary of Secretar,
Knox tonight makes provision for 1
stop at Cartagena, Colombia, on Marcl
Us.
