WOMEN COLLAPSE WHEN
CLARENCE BARROW PLEADS
Los Angeles Court Room Crowded as
Chicago Attorney Addresses Jury
in Fight for Freedom.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 16.-Clar
ence s. barrow, regarded as one OF
the foremost champions of organized
labor and defender in the courts OF
its leaders and principles, faced the
jury on Wednesday which will decide
whether he is guilty or not guilty. and
pleaded for his liberty, reputation and
possibly his life in his trial for al
legged jury bribery.
Bending with the care and worry
Of the serious charge that has been
brought against him, but stirred to the
utmost to save his reputation, that
had taken so many years to build,
barrow made the effort of his life.
Hundreds of women, who crowded
called, battled for seats in the court
room In the excited rush for places
near the bench several tainted and
were carried from the room. Others
had their clothes torn almost off in
making their way through the jam.
When barrow began his address 1000
persons were jammed in the court
room, which is supposed to hold but
half that number. and approximately
1000 stood outside the doors.
barrow vehemently declared his in
nocence of the charge of having bribed
jurymen in the Mcnamara care, and
claiming that he had been made the
victim of plot, barrow the accused
became barrow the accuser
He hurled one vindictive denuncia-
ton after another at the district at
torney, and declared the Erectors'
association had put up as vicious
and cruel a plot as was ever used
against an American citizen" to get
him.
At times during his argument, par
ticularly when referring to the Nc
Namaras, his voice became husky and
his eyes filled with tears.

MEXICAN REBELS
SLAUGHTER MANY
Zapatistas Attack Passenger
Train From Ambush.
BURN WOUNDED IN COACHES
Thirty-Six Soldiers and More Than
Twenty Passengers Massacred
in Canyon Near City
of Mexico.

City of Mexico, Aug. 14.-Twenty
passengers and every man Of mill
tary guard of thirty-six soldiers con-
yoying the passenger train were shot
to death, cut to pieces with machetes
or burned alive in an attack by a
band of Zapatistas under Eufam1o
Zapata near Ticuman, 10 miles from
this city on Monday A rail was loos-
ened in the track and the train, run
ming about forty kilometers an hour,
went into the ditch.
Only meager details have reached
this city. So far as known only part
of the train crew escaped.
The first news of the massacre was
sent to Mexico City by the conductor
and Marine Dominguez, who, although
wounded, managed to make their way
to Yautepec, twelve miles away. They
were forced to steal through the Zapa-
tista lines.
After a murderous rife fire had
ceased the rebels sWarmed down the
hillside and set fire to the three cars
composing the train. A few of the
right of way, thus escaping the fate of
those unable to leave the cars, who
were burned.
According to reports the leader OF
the rebels made absolutely no effort to
restrain his men from acts of brutality
greater than any that has yet marked
the campaign in the south. The wound
ed, pleading for their lives, were
struck down without pity, and even
looting was held in allegiance until the
slaughter was completed.
Not satisfied with robbing their vic
tins in an ordinary manner, the nm
gers of men and women we're chopped
off with machetes, that rings they
wore might be more quickly obtained.
Ornaments were torn from ears of wo-
men and their bodies were otherwise
mutilated
Most of the passengers belonged to
the farmer and lower classes. The
soldiers, who had been detailed to act
as guard, were from the Eleventh
battalion, commanded by Lieutenant
Reynoza
Ell Paso, Tex, Aug. 14.-One United

UNITED STATES READY
TO SEIZE NICARAGUA
American Minister Weitzel Ordered
to Assemble Troops-MartlaI Law
May Be Proclaimed.

Washington, Aug. 49, Minister
Weitzel, with the assistance of $50
blue jackets and marines who are
now in Managua, Nicaragua, will pro-
claim martial law in that rebellion
ridden republic within 48 hours and
take charge of governmental affairs
unless conditions improve very mate
rally.
Long experience with Latin-Ameri-
can republics has shown the state de-
partment that too much leniency is a
dangerous thing and, while President
Taft is welded to ideas of peace and
diplomacy, even he admitted to Secre-
tary Knox that conditions in Nicara-
qua were growing we'll nigh unbear-
able, and that something should be
done at once.
Accordingly the state department
wired Minister Weitzel to assume full
control of the American troops ia
Nicaragua, moving them as he thought
best for the protection of foreigners
and their property, and even using
them to attack the rebels should the
latter make good their threat to bonn
bard the foreign portion of Managua
Owing to the difficulties Of commun1-
cation, nothing further has reached
the state department concerning this
threat
II addition to the $50 sailors and
marines already at Managua, Minister
Weitzel will have the aid of 800 sailors
from the Denver within three days.

PARDON FOR O|ETz
ASKED By $4,000
McGOVern Will Soon Hold q
Hearing on Application.
SON SEES THE GOVERNOR
Wife of the Convicted Cameron Dam
Man Declares That Her Husband Is
Innocent and That His Conviction
Resulted from Improper Defense.

Madison.-The signatures of 49,
SOO residents of Wisconsin are sign
ed to petitions accompanying the for
NAL application for pardon for John
+. Dietz, of Cameron Dam, now serv-
ing a sentence of life Imprisonment
in the state penitentiary for
the murder of Deputy Sheriff
Oscar Harp, which was filed with
Gov. McGovern by Clarence Dietz, son
of the convicted man, and Attorney
E. FL. Nabor of Mayville.
Mr.. Dietz and Attorney Nabor
brought the application to Madison
in person and after filing it had a
long conference with Gov. Mccoy
ern. The governor said that he would
hold a hearing on the application at
an early day.
The application was signed by Mrs.
Hattie Dietz, wife of the convicted
man. Mrs. Dietz says in the appli-
cation:
Il know my husband was not in
any way responsible for the shoot
ing Of Oscar Harp
If pardoned, Dietz will, she de-
clares, prove beyond a reasonable
doubt that he did not kill Harp. Mrs
Dietz declares that her husband is
innocent, that Harp was killed by
a bullet from the gun of some other
deputy sheriff, that Dietz did not
have fair trial, that Jurors Smith
and Sabean were prejudiced against
Dietz, that the residents of Sawyer
county were prejudiced against him,
that Dietz did not believe he would
be convicted and therefore did not
properly prepare for his defense, that
Dietz was a good husband and father
and that it is necessary for him to
be with his family.
