ward with reference to crime which
James B. Mcnamara already had con-
fessed.
The collaboratio with United States
District Attorney Charles W. Miller
here of Oscar LAWYER, special govern
ment prosecutor in southern California
and District Attorney John D. Fred
ericks of Los Angeles county, Cal, who
prosecuted the Mcnamara brothers,
triple alliance specially sought by the
department of justice in unravelling
the alleged dynamiting conspiracy of
country wide eStent-was expected be-
fore tomorrow to be an accomplished
fact.
Both Mr.. Lawler and Mr.. Fredericks
were to arrive during the day and be-
gin their consultations with Mr.. Miller,
the federal grand jury being sched-
morrow.
Ortie McManigars arrival here
within two or three days. timed to fol-
low close upon the coming of the two
California prosecutors, is taken to
mean that the latter win assist Mr..
Miller in assembling the voluminous
confessions of Mechanical. which. it is
predicted, will be OF greater use here
than on the Pacific coast.
M'MANIGAL TO TESTIFY.
Lengthy testimony from Mechanical,
it is said, will mean a flood of indict-
ments, carrying with them scores of
persons, conspicuous as well as incen-
spicuous in the labor world.
Fredericks and LAWYER are expected
to be able to marshal for District
Attorney Miller much of the informa
ton received in Los Angeles on acz.
count of the confessions of the Nc
Namaras.
DEVELOPMENTS are looked for here
constantly throughout the week. When
Mechanical arrives he viii be under
special guard, not that the authorities
fear his escape but the possibility of
foul play from those against whom he
has been testifying. Though federal
prisoners usually are kept in the coun-
ty Jail here, arrangements are being
made to shelter McManigal in the fed
eral building itself, where an armed
guard will protect him. This arrange
ment, too, will make 1t necessary for
him to appear out of doors from the
time he reaches the federal building
until the grand jury finishes the taking
Of testimony.
Recognizing that the statute of limi-
tations would prevent the implication
of some persons for causing explosives
to be transported which lead to the
destruction of property several years
ago the government prosecutors here
will take advantage of recent decisions
in the So called sugar trust cases,
wherein conspiracy offenses were held
to be continuous This fact likewise is
taken as an indication that the indict-
ments to be returned here viii embrace
a long period of time as well as host
of persons, however small their part N
the alleged conspiracy.

New Orleans Futures

New Orleans, Jan. Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance of to 8
points. The English market was higher
than expected and spot sales there were
encouragingly large, although private
cables messages concerning the labor
situation were pessimfstic in their tone.
The good cables encouraged buying for
long account and caused some short
covering. The market had no selling
power in the early trading. At the end
of the first half hour of business prices
were 10 points over last weeks close.
The cotton market had a steady tone
and an advancing tendency all the morn
ing as the result of the report that invest
ment buying orders on an unprecedented
scale were being received by commission
houses. Shorts put out fresh lines on
the advance but their selling was alb
sorbei kilograms and letters from many
parts of the cotton belt said that the con-
tinued rains were having the effect of Sc
riously delaying winter blowing and this
increased the steadiness of the market.
At noon the trading months were 16 to
II points over yesterdays close.

When asked over the telephone yes

to get labor to unload the cargo of
spoiled herring of the Norwegian
tarkentine at Muscogee wharf, the Of
ficials at that wharf informed a rep

On the contrary, it was stated that
the crew of the vessel was unloading
the cargo and that as rapid progress
as could be expected was being made.
The herring will be shipped to fer

and used in the manufacture of that
commodity.
