ATEAUX ENTERS A

Breen Alleged to Be Central Figure

Boston. June "A colossal system
Of blackmail, with John J. Breen. the
Lawrence undertaken as the central
figure in it, was responsible for the
arrest Of William Wood, president Of
the American Woolen company, and
Frederick Atteaux, according to the
opening statement OF Daniel H Coax
ley, attorney for Atteaux, when the de-
fense began its testimony in the dyna-
mite planting trial
The defense attacked the testimony
of Chauffeur Pira, the states star wit
ness.
Atteaux took the stand in his own
defense and categoricaIly denied all
allegations made against him by the
state. He denied the allegations made
by Breen regarding the origin Of the
alleged conspiracy.
The guilt or innocence Of William
NJ Wood must be determined by a jury
without any direct evidence having
been introduced by the defense.
Judge Crosby, presiding at the trial
Of Wood. Frederick Atteaux and Den
mis- Collins, late Tuesday overruled g
motion Of Henry P Hurlburt, counsel
for the mill man. that the jurors be
instructed to return a verdict for his
client. Before arguing his motion Mr..
Hmlburt had announced that he took
the responsibility of resting his case
without presenting any evidence.
In denying the motion the court said
that SO far as Wood was concerned
that questions to be considered were;
Does the evidence show conspir-
acy to have existed and was the de-
fendant Wood a party to such con-
spiracy?
1T is necessary for the common
wealth to show something more than
passive knowledge or aeqaiescence in
the conspiracy, but it is not necessary
to prove that the conspirators actually
met together
The Judge went on to say that there
was evidence that John ] Breel- who
Z
was fined for placing the explosive
and Ernest w. Pittman. who commit
ted suicide when the investigation was
!. begun and who, according to the ties

partners in a conspiracy to place th'
= explosives.
ut seems to me that all the eyidenc
! presented warrants the submission Q
the case to the jury and, as to all tn
defendants, said the judge.
The prosecution rested early in th
Z afternoon and Mr.. Hurlburt immed
ately announced that he would rest hl

q structed to acquit, he based his arg
! ments on the claim that it had NJ
been shown that Wood took an actil
part in the alleged conspiracy.

PUBLIC INTEREST IN SPORTS
II 10 the Spectacular In Athletics
Which Makes Games Popular
With the People.

IL interest in athletics we're confined
to athletes. the value Of athletics
would be lessened about 80 per cent.
The only way to rouse public interest
In athletic sports Is by their spectac.
ular, character.
The value of football lies In the ten
thousand prairie organizations which
train a hundred thousand boys In
nerve and team work each year. But
these prairie teams would not exist
II the great college teams did not give
thrilling spectacles each fall. These
great matches keep up that keen pub
lie interest without which football
would be forgotten.
The same Is true OF baseball. Ev.
cry lad swatting balls in a vacant lot
models his play on that Of some big
league hero and dreams of himself In
that hero's place on the diamond.
A sport which is only a spectacle
would not be worth much. But sport
which has no exhibition value never
gets beyond a small circle. II Amer.
lea ever finds a winter game to take
the place which baseball holds In sum-
mer and football In autumn, it will be
a game which rivals these great sports
In thrilling spectacular appeal.
