Dynamite Charges Not Sus-
tanned. Government Says.
fO2TY.ONt ATE STILL ON TRIAL
United States District Attorney Says
Evidence Is Not Sufficient to Con-
vict-Calis Tvetmoe's Statement
Cohtemptible-No Desire
to Punish Innocent.

Indianapolis, Ind. Dec 3.-Four of
the forty-four defendants in the "dyna-
mite conspiracy" trial were discharged
by the government on the ground that
the charges against them had not been
sustained.
The dismissal of the cases, leaving
forty-one labor union officials still on
trial, came when Charles w. Miller.
United States district attorney, an
nounced that the governments evi-
dence was all presented and that the
government rested its case Mr.. Miller
then moved the dismissal of defend
ants as follows:
William X. Benson. East Galloway.
n. Y. formerly president of the De
troit Federation of Labor.
Moulton II. Davis, West Chester, Pa.
formerly member of the executive
board of the international Association
of Bridge and Structural Ironworkers
John II. Carroll. Syracuse, n. Y. for
merly an official of the local ironwork-
ers' union.
Spurgeon p. Meadows, indianapolis,
Ind, business agent of the local council
of the International Brotherhood of
Carpenters and JoinerS.
The government said its release of
these defendants did not affect the
merits of the remaining cases.
Tveitmoe is Scored.
Contrary to the contemplate pub
lished statements of Olaf A. Tveitmoe, -
said District Attorney Miller, addressing
the court, the government has no de-
sire to punish any innocent defendant
We have concluded that while Carroll.
Benson and Meadows have had guilty
knowledge of conspiracy illegally to
transport explosives, the evidence is
not conclusive. Benson since his lead
ership as a union official at Detroit has
retired to farm and is no longer con.
nected with a union"

missal of Michael ]. Cunnane of Phila-

few more defendants, but these motions
will not be entertained now," said

DAVIS THEATER.

Alma, Where Do You Live? the musical play which had an entire sea- Son's run at Weber's theater, New J ort, will be seen at the Davis theater with Miss May Latham, William Will lingham, John Saunders and the orig inal New York company. From a French farce which had been trans- lated Into German and first produced in New York in that language, and which had been generally criticised for its broadness, George V. Hobart, the well known American humorist. at the insttgation of Joseph M. Weber of the famous firm of Weber & Fields. con- structed a play which tells a very pretty story and transforms a very naughty heroine into a very charming creature whom even the most captions of playgoers will not hesitate to ap- plaud. Aside from Mir. Hobart's work 1n creating an agreeable libretto an excellent score has been provided by the French composer, Jean Briouef and the music of Alma is now being heard all over the land.
 May Latham enjoys the reptItstiop of being one of the handsomest worn en on the American stage Tt was tbjs as much as her singing and acting ability that caused the management to engage her to succeed the statu- esque Kitty Gordon in Alma. Where Do You Live?
