William M. Wood, the most prom
nent of the three defendants, is one
of the best known textile men in the
world His father came from the
Portuguese island of Pico as boat
steward and settled at Edgartown,
where Wood was born. 1t is believed
Woods Portuguese name was Al

an operative in textile mill and
changed his name to that of his enl.
ployer. After his fathers death
Wood moved to New Bedford, where
he was employed in the counting room
of the Wamsutta mills. Later he was
transferred to the manufacturing de-
partment, where he learned the cot
ton business. After some years he
went into the banking house of j. A.
Beauvais & Co., only to return to the
cotton manufacturing business in Fall
River as treasurer of one of the larg-
est mills there.
Wood married the daughter OF Fred
erick Aver, who made millions in
patent medicines and from him got the
real start which afterward placed him
in charge of one of the great textile
mills in Lawrence 1t was almost
wholly through Woods efforts and
enterprise that the American Woolen
company was put on it's feet during a
time when things looked black for that
organization.
Besides being president Of the Am
erican Woolen company, Wood is dl-
rector in numerous other mills and
several of New Engiand's largest
banks. He is member of the Ma
tional Association of Wool Manufac-
turers, the Homo Market club, high

frances to the court house this morn
ing when William Wood, president OF
the American Woolen company, went
on trial on charge of conspiracy to

Wood Powerful Factor in Trust.


BOSTON, May 19.-Charged with
conspiracy to plant dynamite in an
attempt to discredit the Lawrence
textile strikers in 1912, William M.
Wood, multi-millionaire president of
the American Woolen company, some
times called the "woolen trust" and
alleged to have been a powerful fac
tor in the writing OF the Payne-Al-
drich tariffs schedule x, today was
placed on trial in the Suffolk superior
court.
Unlike previous trials in which there
has been labor on one side and capt.
tai on the other, the trial of Wood pre-
sents the reversed aspect of capital
the defendant and labor the accuser.
Facing Judge Crosby with Wood we're
Frederick E. Atteaux, a Boston man
ufacturer of textile mill accessories,
and Dennis Collins, a Cambridge dog
fancier. The three men were indicted
last August by special grand jury
called to Investigate the matter shortly
after John J. Breen, an undertaken OF
Lawrence, and school commissioner
at the time, was found guilty of plant
ing the dynamite and was fined $500
after he refused to take the stand in
his own behalf
Before the trial opened today great
crowds filled the court house. Prom
inent labor leaders and socialists were
among those who literally stormed the
doors to get into court. Evidence OF
intense interest in the proceedings was
shown in the installation of telegraph
wires in the court house for the first
time in the history of court hearings
in Boston. District Attorney Joseph q
Pelletier and his assistant, A. G. Web
Der appeared for the government. At
torneys Samuel L. Powers, Daniel II.
Coakley and Henry T. Hurlburt ap-
peared for the defendants Since his
indictment Wood has been at liberty
on $4,000 cash bail The same bail was
set for the other two defendants.
Breen. who was found guilty OF
planting the dynamite on May Is, was
expected to be chief witness for the
prosecution. He willingly testified be-
fore the grand jury. Pelletier is un-
Wood. Atteaux and Collins. Ernest W
Pitman, an East Milton quarryman,
and prominent in other business en-
terprises, was to have been another
government witness. He committed
suicide, however, on August ~, the
day before he was to have testified be-
fore the grand jury. Pelletieh is unz
derstood to have talked informally
with Pitman about 10 hours before the
latter killed himself and at that time
ia said to have gotten enough inform
alton to compel others to TESTIFY at
the grand jury investigation.
It was during the critical time in
the historic Lawrence strike that
dynamite was found" by the Law
ronce police shortly after Joseph Et-
tors arrest late in January. The cry

CAMP PLEASANT WORK
INSPECTED BY VISITORS
The Rev. William D. Jarvis IN Charge
Of Program in Observance Of
District Day.
THIRTY TENTS ON HIGH HILL

District Day wGs observed yesterday
at Camp Pleasant. conducted by the sum-
mer outings committee of the Associated
Charities for the purpose of giving rec
reation and instruction to the colored
mothers and children Of Washington.
The Rev. William d. Jarvis was chair
man of the committee In charge of the
days program. Many persons visited
the camp and inspected tho work being
conducted.
The camp is managed entirely by a
group of colored workers who also have
done much TO raise money for its mairten-
ance. The camp consists of thirty tents. ar
ranged around the crest of high hill
in the midst of a pine grove. and here
the children of the alleys are given an
opportunity not only to get strong and
healthy. but to learn much that will aid
them in becoming good. industrious citi-
zens.
The medical directors of the camp are
Drs. C. W. Childs and George W..
Cabaniss, and they have been assisted
by Drs Martin. Charles A. Tignor. AL

The rising bell is sounded at o'clock.
At Gas O'Clock the flag is raised and
saluted. and at the children go in to
breakfast. After breakfast every cot
is set out in the sun to air for half an
hour. Then the campers put their tents
In order, and there Is inspection by the
superintendent.
A flag Is given to the tent that is
found in the best condition. There are
two flags. one for the boys and one for
the girls, and there is much rivalry as
to which tent shall get the flag. The
rest of the day is spent in bathing and
sports of various kinds. AS part of the
recreation program the girls are learn
ing to dress dolls. This gives an oppor-
tunity for teaching sewing. and some Of
these children have never had a needle
and thread in their hands before.
Many OF the children who go to the
camp have never used a tooth brush be-
fore, and some have not known what a
nigL. dress meant. Each child who does
rot bring one is provided with a tooth
brush and comb. and taught how to use
them.

ANNUAL STAR SHOWER
NOW MAY BE VIEWED

Earth Reaches Point In Orbit Which
Bring. Within Sight Supposed
Remnants of Comet.
Persons who tarried late on the streets
last night and who happened to look in
the direction Of the constellation Pei
seus. which lies low in. the northwestern
skies, witnessed the annual return of
the August meteoric shower.
Every few minutes from q point in the
constellation q shooting star" would
be seen to start its seemingly brief mo-
mentary journey through the heavens,
leaving in Its wake a streak Of yellow
light. The shower Is formed by par
ticles supposed to have once formed .
comet and which now pass across the
orbit of the earth.
A continuous stream Of these particles
flows across the path Of the earth. and
this point is reached every August. II
will take several days to pass through
the stream. SO that IL weather condl-
tions are favorable, the shooting stars"
will be visible again tonight and pos
sibly tomorrow night. The particles are
consumed by friction during their
passage through our atmosphere.
