his own defense today in the federal
court, where he is on trial accused
of defrauding the government in con-
nection with supply contracts. Meyer
testified that he had $500 when he
was transferred to the Puget Sound
yard from South Carolina in 1902, and
that soon after his arrival here J. A..
Kettlewell, a brother employee who has
already served a term for participa-
ton in the supply Frauds borrowed
$3.50 from him. Meyer said that Ket-
tleWell, who was one of the govern
ment's principal witnesses, still owes
him $75 on the loan. Regarding the
government check payable to Peter
Brandt whom the government alleges
is a fictitious person., and which was
cashed for Meyer by his attorney,
Meyer said the check was given to
him by Kettlewell in payment of an
other loan of 5000, and that he did
not know that such person as Peter
Brandt did not exist Categorically
denying every allegation made by the
government, Meyer asserted he had
never received monthly payments of
$50 from w. e. Wheeler machinery
salesman, who was convicted with
KettleWell, and that he had never
given Wheeler advance information
on materials needed by the govern
ment. Meyer was still on the stand
when court adjourned over Sunday.

"A BIG GOOSE STEW"
IN CAL|F0RN
SACRAMENTO sPoRTsMEN PLAN.
MING FEAST AND INVITE
LOCAL SHOOTERS.

Through the Missoula Chamber of
Commerce the sportsmen of Sacra-
mento, California, have invited local
gun artists to join them in a big
goose stew which is planned for No
vember "a, the following invitation
having been received here by the
chamber yesterday:
The sportsmen of Sacramento city
and Sacramento county are seeking
the pleasure of entertaining the lead
ing sportsmen of every eastern state
With view to doing this as we'll as
entertaining the sportsmen of Cali
fornia. the greatest Goose Stew" ever
attempted is being prepared for No
vember "a. The event will take place
on the state fair grounds at Sacra-
mento where thousands of geese will
be made ready for the pots. Do not
be alarmed, for this does not mean
slaughter of game. The wheat fields
OF the Sacramento and San JOAQUIN
valleys are now black with millions of
geese which have come in in such
enormous flocks that they darken the
light of the sun as they take wing.
To eastern spotsmen this sounds
like an exaggeration, and that is one
reason why we want them to come.
We want to get acquainted with the
eastern sportsmen and we want to
prove to him that California is, in
deed, his paradise. We want him to
know that there is not another state
in the union where within a short
horseback ride of the state capitol a
small number of sportsmen can gather
in few days more than a thousand
geese for big stew and that their
removal from the general flocks would
not be noticeable.
Furthermore, if there are any east
ern sportsmen who would like to
come to California sufficiently early
to assist the game committee in gath
eEing the geese. they will be doubly
welcome. What would an eastern
sportsman think, for example, if he
could stand in the doorway of his
hunting cabin and in few days kill
several hundred geese? What would
he think If he We're to step off the
train in a country where the farmers
are willing to pay him for keeping the
enormous flocks from their grain
fields? Such is the game paradise
that we have in California and we
want our friends in the east to know
about it.
The sportsmen of Sacramento coun-
ty have, therefore, given the chamber
of commerce of this city the privilege
of inviting, through your organizat on,
the leading sportsmen Of your city
and community to be present on this
occasion as their guests. We would
like you to issue the invitation from
your chamber Of commerce and, if
you SO desire, would be pleased if you
would send us list Of the gun clubs
in your vicinity, i'm order that we may
supplement your invitation by per-
sonal invitation.
You might say to the sportsmen in
your locality that in addition to the
greatest s""'e dinner they ever sat
down to. there VIII be many other
things doing Which will make the
day a most enjoyable and most mem
orable one. The days program in
cludes a blue rock shoot. horse racing,
a mule race with the leading citizens
as jockeys, splendid musical pro-
gram and boxing contests.

saying he had a new invention. He
said hereafter they were going to

explosion came and thus prove an
alibi. He wanted me to put nitro
glycerine in the concrete foundation

if later a non union firm did the
steel construction work on it we
might easily blow it up l refused.
Hockn said they had tried out the
new invention at Steubenville, Ohio
where they caused explosions and at
Cincinnati and Indianapolis. 1t was a
great success, he said, and there
would be no more monkey business
