Darby was also acquitted. while James
Dunlop Smith. president. and Elmer f.
Burlingame, agent OF a subsidiary con-
Germ, were found guilty.
Considerable interest has been shown
here in the outcome OF the case, Lee De
Forest being an inventor OF note. There
were four counts in the indictments
against De Forest and Darby. the jury
disagreeing On the fourth, which charged
conspiracy to defraud.
In their arguments before the court
Attorneys McLanahan and Burton pointed
out that De Forest, while nOminally vice
president OF the company, was really the
technical man" and had nothing to do
with the alleged illegal methods of ad-
vertising the stock through the mails
Il am gratified to hear that Mr.. De
Forest was acquitted of the charges
against him. said DIR. l.. w. Austin,

IGNORANCE OF LIND PLANS

At both the State Department and the
White House complete ignorance of the
plans OF President Wilson and John Lind
was expressed by official yesterday. who
declared that all they knew was that a
conference between the two is to take
place in the next day or so. No advices
regarding this phase of the situation are
being received here, il was said.
State Department dispatches from the
border reported that two battles are
in progress between the rebels and the
federals. Tie federals are being heavily
attacked by strong forces at Ojinaga and
also at Nuevo Laredo. The Indications
are that both cities will be taken by the
rebels eventually, as the tederals are re-
