 History of Trials.
WIVES OF MEN HYSTERICAL

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Indianapolis. - The United States government, with stern and decisive swiftness, took into it's possession 3S union labor officials convicted of con- spiracy, of promoting explosions on nonnnion work througohut the land, of aiding in the destruction which brought loss of life at Los Angeles, Cal, and of carrying on reign of terror declared to be unparalleled in the history of the country.
 Almost the entire executive staff of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers was con victed. Only two officials of that union now remain out of jail.
 At the head of the list of those con- victed stands Frank M. Ryan, the president.
 It was of this union, with 12,000 members, that John J. McNamara was secretary-treasurer while he con ducted the dynamiting, out of which the present convictions grew.
 The convictions, coming on a scale unprecedented in federal court, were an aftermath of the killing of 21 per sons in the blowing up the Los An geles Times building on October 1, 1910. McNamara and his brother, James B., the Times dynamiter, are convicts in Calofrnia
 Each prisoner was handcuffed immediately after the courtroom was cleared of spectators, and between deputy marshals they were marched five blocks through the streets in a brilliant winter sunlight to the county iail.
 The prisoners, each visible to the others through the bars, were various ly cast down or cheerful. Some pro- fessed to take the jury's verdict in light spirit, while disappointment plainly was written across the coun- tenance of others. Marshall Shmidt at once placed extra guards about the jail to prevent demonstrations by the crowds.
 Outside the jail there was enacted scene in which joy played no part. It had to do with the wives. sisters and children of the defendants.
 The verdict delivered in the sombre courtroom in so brief a time struck first silence and then hysterical sob- ping among the women, who, for months, had hoped for a different re- suit. Some of the women attempted to climb over the railing which sepa- rated them from that part of the room where the defendants sat. Arms ap- pealingly were stretched forth. Mrs. Frank Higgins, Boston, tainted as she she saw her husband led away. The children of others began to cry, but the orders of the court were inexor- able.

ROOSEVELT'S
STAR WITNESS
Again Declares He Averted
Panic By Allowing Steel
Trust to Absorb T. c.. 7.

New York, Jan. 22.-DefantIy de-
Tending his approval, while President,
of the merging of the Tennessee Coal
& Iron Company with the steel trust,
as necessary to check the now hin
torica1 panic of 1907, Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, today, declared that he had
never seen any reason to believe it
was not a wise action.
'sThose were panic times, Judge
Dickinson" solemnly and inpressively
declared the ex-President, land the
men who advised me that necessity
required that the steel corporation
take over the Tennessee corporation
were giving the best information they
possessed
ct was a matter of life and death
to them. Financial wrecking or saliva
ton of the country depended upon the
accuracy of that Information. 1t
doubt that the Tennessee Coal & Iron
Company never could be developed
unless taken over by competent hands
and none of the facts you have al
leged-(that the trust made it's con-
| troll of the industry absolute by the
ana1gam atom had they been known
f1uenced me in the least. The judg-
ment in expert financial circles in the
time of panic was what Influenced me

necessary to prevent widespread dis
aster to the people Of the country.
Roosevelt was the star witness OF
today's session of the suit before Ref
cree Brown to dissolve the steel trust
because it is alleged by the govern
| rnent to violate the antitrust law. His
entire testimony as presented to the
| Stanley Steel conrxnitte was re-affirn-
| ed and incorporated evidence. At

ceedingH, Attorney Linda bury, for the
| trust, got into the record that it was
Roosevelt's oopinion at the time and
was still that the merger was justifi-
I able.

NIGHT SESSION
IN MAINE TO
.UNSEAT MEMBERS
Action May Affect Status Of
Newly Elected u. S.
Senator Burleigh

Augusta, Me-, Jan. 22-Sensations
were promised, today, when it was
decided that the State House of Rep
resentatives will hold night session,
tonight, to decide whether certain
members are rightful1y holding their
seats because of the fact that they
still hold postmasterships. One man
was unseated on a. challenge by Dem
ocrats before the bal1oting for United
States Senator began Charges that
three other members are holding their
seats illegally by virtue of being post
masters were made at the same time
but the arrival of the noon hour auto
matically required that the senator
iaI balIoting be Immediately started
to the exclusion OF any other business
before the body.
Edwin c. Burleigh was elected Uni
ted States Senator by margin of only
one vote. If it is proven, tonight, that
any House member who cast his vote
for Burleigh is not rightfulIy holding
his seat, it will be argued, therefore,
that his vote for Burleigh is void. Such
a decision, declared Democratic lead
ers today, would mean that Burleigh's
election should be questioned and that
another ballot for a United States SEN
ator is necessary.
Representative Richardson, of Can
ton, admitted, today, that Progress
sives, as we'll as Democrats, are deep
1y interested in tonight's proceedings.

FATHER O'CONNOR
ANSWERS JUDSON
SAYS Judson Made Personal
Attack to Avoid Merits of
Annexation Question

Rev M J. O'Connor, pastor of St
James Church, Stratford, returned to
his home late last evening to find the
public statements made by States
Attorney stiles Judson, attacking Fa-
Their O'Connor for his activity in the
Stratford annexation controversy.
The Stratford priest at once issued
a statement in which he declared that
the States Attorney sought to evade
the question at issue by making a per-
SOna1 attack upon him.
He took Mr.. Judson to task for what
he termed his sheer at their religion
in reference to the Catholics of the
HolIister Heights district, and referr-
ing to Judson's remarks on Father
OfConnor's political activity, the
priest declares that Judson was the
first man in politics to seek to enlist
his aid, and that when he tried to
have Father O'Connor get the West
port delegation to the Senatorial con-
vention to support him, Judson con-
fided that he had Gubernatorial as
piraltfons. He concluded with the dec
laration that he would not be bullied
by Judson, to whom he referred as

SOLLOWAY CLAIMS
He is VICTIM OF
DETECTIVES PLOT
Bankrupt Merchant Tells
Story Like Synopsis Of
a Dime Novel

Representing that he had been the
victim of a plot concocted by a private
eeeectlTe: + IN whzch the seEV1ceg OF
enlisted in effort to snuggle him
to Waterbury in the middle of the
night before bond OF legal assistance
through third degree methods. Morris
Soloway, who was recently held under
$500 bonds in Waterbury upon
charge of arson, today makes sensa-
tiopal charges against those who ar
rested him here on the night of Janu-
airy IL. In statement to Farmer
reporter he partially excu1pates De-
tective Hurley, whom he believed to
have been hoodwinked.
The statement given out for pub1i-
Louis Webb, New Haven detective
approached Soloway in that city with
a proposition to enter business to-
Main street Bridgeport, shortly after
midnight Webb with New Haven
lawyer named McKenna and State Po-
Hceman Hurley knocked at his door,
and Webb announced he had come to
talk over the business proposition.
So1oway declares without any intina1-
was in the Possession of Hurley the
door was forcibly broken open and the
three men burst into his apartment.
Soloway upon seeing Hurley asked
what he wanted and was then told
that a warrant for his arrest had been
issued. He dressed and expressed
WILLINGNESS TO accompany the Ol11C0E
to the station here. that an attorney
might be secured and arrangement
made for bonds. It is alleged that
Hurley consented to this arrangement
but that when the party including
Sideways brother-in-1aw were about
to enter the vehicle held in waiting,
the brother-in-law was roughly push
ed aside and a start was to be made
at once for Waterbury. So1oway re-
sisted and in the ensuing struggle
Sideways arm was cut with such de-
gree of seriousness that the trip had
to be abandoned and the victim taken
to a local hospital where an operation
was performed.
It is further alleged that an at
tempt to force confession of arson
from the sick man was made by the
private detective and several lawyers
interested in the litigation which has
ensued since the burning of the Solo
way & Katz store in Waterbury on the
night of August 5, 1911.
Mr.. Soloway said that an arrange
ment had been made to subject him
to a vigorous persecution in Water
bury before he could secure a bonds
man or lawyer in Waterbury, and de-
cried what he termed the highland
ed methods of the lawyers and police
did when he had been in this city for
the past two months and it was known
that he had no intention of leaving
the state.
He announced for publication that
a settlement is being arranged with
his creditors on a. basis of 10 per cent.
which will be formally ratified before
Referee Newton in New Haven on the
28th of January.

Injured by Fall.
Walter Chase is at the Danbury

injuries were received has not yet
been learned as Mr.. Chase has not
recovered sufficiently to be able to
ty years old, left his home to visit a
friend, and it was while he was re-
turning home that he met with the
accident. It is supposed that he was
taking a short cut across lots to get
home, and fell into a quarry. About
an hour after Mr. Chase left Broad
view he was seen crawling out
through a gate not far from his home.
He was so weak that he could not
stand and his features were covered
with blood caused by a serious scalp
wound, while he had sustained cuts
and bruises on other parts of his body.
The wound on the head was the most
serious. He had evidently struck on
his forehead as the scalp was laid
the flesh was cut away clean and
hanging down over his eyes. He also
had severe cut on the left side of
the neck while both hands were cut
and bruised.
