':Gullty, " Aubaim StabS Man WhO
 Proved Charge
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcHl

SAN DIEGO, April 6.-Riotous scenes attended the closing of the trial of Paul Aubain on superior court charge of murdering two Ital- ians. Immediately after being pro- nounced guilty by the jury, Aubain leaped the docket rail and stabbed Assistant District Attorney Dempster Mckee with an improvised weapon fashioned from a spoon. The weapon struck a glancing blow, inflicting a flesh wound. Spectators jumped on the prisoner and after fierce strug- gle overpowered him. More than fifty Italian friends of Aubain's al- legged victims rushed the assailant, requiring the combined efforts of the court attaches, attorneys and report CTS to protect the prisoner.
 A hurried call brought a squad of police, who formed a flying wedge and succeeded after difficulty in get ting Aubain out of the court room. As the convicted murderer covering amidst his protectors, left the room the foreigners, reinforced by women made second rush for him. The wife of one of the men Aubain was alleged to have murdered fought her way to within few feet of the pris- oner, screaming that she would scratch his eyes out. The spoon which Aubain used had been sharp ened to almost razorlike keenness or the cement floor of his cell.

John D. Rockefeller, IT., Tells House Mines Com mittee of His Moral Re- sponsibility for Industrial Strife In Colorado.
 |, .. SAYS LABORER
 HAS RIGHTS -. He and His Father Would Rather Lose Millions Than Deprive American Working Men of Consti- tutional Rights
ASSOCIATED PRESS prsPArcH]

WASHINGTON, April 6.-John D. Rockefeller, Jr., testified before the house mines committee about the ques- tion of his moral responsibility for the industrial strife which kept the coal fields in southern Colorado in a tur- moil for six months. After more than four hours cross-examination, Rocke- feller told the committee that he and three other directors represented his fathers interest of about forty per cent in the Colorado Fuel and Iron con- pany, the central figure in the big coal strike: and as director he fulfilled all of his interest and responsibility in the company when he placed as officers. "competent and trusted men, in charge of the company's affairs; that he knew nothing of strike conditions in the district except from reports from officers of the company; that the strike had become a fight for the principles" of freedom of labor; that he and his other associates would rath- CT that the present violence continue and that they lose all their millions invested in the coal fields, than that the American working man be deprived of his right under the constitution to work for whom they pleased"; that he favored arbitration of industrial dis tes-generaly-but in the present instance supported the officers of the company in refusal to submit the question of unionizing mines to arbi- tration.
 At the end of the hearing, he said he would submit to arbitration in Cobra do if it could be assured fair and un biased board of arbitration could be secured. He suggested federal judges as the best qualified to serve.
 In support of these conclusions. Rockefeller was kept busy for hours explaining, defending and arguing. He asserted the employer and employee were fellow men and should trust each other as such.' But he could see no analogy between the unionization of workmen and the combination of capi tai.
 He told the committee his conscience acquitted him" of having done his full duty with regard to the striking coal diggers, by placing competent men in authority over them and leaving the responsibility to these men.
 The members of the committee spoke of Rockefellers interest and work in various "uplift" movements and asked why he had not gone about the well fare work in the Colorado coal fields in a similar way.
 q did just exactly as have done in all my investigations" he said. q picked out the best qualified men could find, placed them in charge and trusted them to do their best" No amount of cross examination could shake this statement.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-Publicity for the deliberations on a bill to re- peal the toll exemptions on American ships through the Panama canal was determined upon by the senate com
 mttee on inter oceanic canals. which will begin the consideration of the controversy in all its aspects. Sen ator O'Gorman, chairman of the com- mittee, decided upon open sessions after a conference with his col leagues.
 Whether hearings will be held or not has not been decided, but this will be settled when the house re- peal bill and compromise senate measures are formally taken up. How long the committee will delib- crate before making a report no one would predict, but the administra tion leaders say anx effort to pro- long the preliminary consideration will be opposed even to the extreme of moving to discharge the commit ! ttee from consideration of the sub jeet. O'Gorman and others opposing l the repeal, insist that there be nc effort to delay the bill in committee 1 When the issue reaches the senate various forces will be at work tt

CHICAGO, April 6.-County Judge Owens, the head of the election ma chinery of Cook county, asked Chief of Police Gleason to change the en- tire detail of policemen in the First
 ward during the aldermanic elections tomorrow. The move was the last
 in the picturesque campaign of Miss Marion Drake, a law stenographer, to
 oust Bath House" John Coughlin
 as alderman of the first ward, which for nearly twenty years, with
 Michael McKenna. "Hincky Dink," he has represented in the council.
 Miss Drake alleged that the police
 men ordinarily in the ward were in- fluenced by Coughlin and McKenna and would not give women watchers in her interest sufficient protection. The campaign of Miss Drake in the very ward which has generally been conceded to be the stronghold of vice and rotten politics in Chi cago, has become sensational in the extreme She announced her candi daCy soon after the passage of the
 suffrage amendment and has made a
 splendid campaign for office.

TORREON, April 5.-(Via Fl Paso Texas, April 6)-San Pedro. twenty six miles northeast of here, will iii all probability be the scene of the next battle
 San Pedro is hill-gir city whose natural defenses must be approached over a flat country. It was held by a federal garrison. all the time the battle of Torreon was being fought, but the force was prevented by a rebel column from coming to assis- tance of General Velasco.
 Recently a comparatively small force of rebels attempted to take the town, having under-estimated the strength of the garrison, whose real numbers were developed by the at tack and General Villa has been building up his force in the last few days for renewal of the assault. The defeat of the federals at San Pedro would, it is said, move the last fed eral force from this district. The whereabouts of the troops driven from here last week is not known, although it is believed that Velasco is headed for Saltillo. The Spanish colony ordered out of this city by General Villa will probably be placed aboard trains for Juarez tomorrow.

Spaniards Driven Out

JUAREZ. April 6.-Northern and Central Mexico having been thor oughly cleared of Spanish residents news of wholesale expulsion of Span iards a-is brought here by General Elalio Gueiterrez, the commander of the rebel forces in the state of San Luis Potosi.
 "We have expelled every Spaniard from that part of the state which we control,' said the general. and we control all of it except the capi- tai and the city of Matheuahala. In the state of Zacatecas. where General Panfilo Natera has possession of the territory north of the capital, the same course has been followed. estimate that nearly 1000 Spaniards have been deported from these two states in the last two months
 Every consideration has been shown the unfortunate "Gachupines" as the Mexicans call man of Span ish blood, Gutierrez said. ''They have been given plenty of time to carry away with them their house.
  but not one has been permitted to remain inside the rebel lines
 The justification for the wholesale deportation Is found by the insur- gent chiefs in article 8 of the Mex ican constitution-the famous per nicious foreigner" clause which gives the Mexican authorities power to de- port undesirable aliens
 In diplomatic language, but with emotion not hidden Gutierrez follow ed his story of the Spanish exodus by a threat against the Jesuts in Mexico.
 And the Jesuits come next" he said. Already it has been learned that numbers of Catholic priests have been forced to leave the cOun- try in which the Gutierrez men arc operating
