Seattle, Wash, Dec. 27.-Fear that
the Peruvian bark Callao and crew Of
Is men are lost off the coast of Van

Schmidt On Stand.

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 27.-M. A.
Schmidt, alleged Times dynamiter, went
on the witness stand in his own defense
this afternoon. He denied categorically
ali the charges against him, denied hav-
ing used aliases around San Francisco,
denied hiring the "dynamite launch -
and denied making statements concern
ing the dynamiting to Burns detectives.
The high light of Schmidt's testi-
mony was an assertion that he tele-
graphed his landlady, Mrs. Belle LAWN
in San Francisco, from San Mateo on
the afternoon of the day before the
Times was blown up, saying he would
be home in time to take her to the
theatre. Schmidt said he and Mrs. Law
in attended the Savoy theatre that ev-
ening, reaching home at midnight, so,
the defense claims, it was physicall'
impossible for him to be in Los Angeles
when the newspaper plant was blasted
When Schmidt concluded, Special
Prosecutor Joseph W. Noel began his
address to the Jury.

The big Ben Hur roller coaster, one
of the largest on the coast, was partial

atus from Venice and Santa Monica

even.
1t was reported that several persons
were missing-drowning on the end
wharf. Squads of police explored the
burning structure to the very end, but
could find nobody.
With the arrival of engines from Los
Angeles, after a fifteen mile dash

were checked. Los Angeles police aid
ed in controlling crowd Of several
thousand which flocked to the beach

VIII Not Permit Bodies
of Victims To Be Removed

Queenstown, Dec. 81. American
friends and relatives of Lusitania vic

bodies Of Americans exhumed here and
sent to America for burial.
The council composed of shop.
keepers, salOonmen and cab driver
has declined their request that the rude
coffins buried in one of the dreariest
cemeteries of Ireland, mile outside of
the city, be disinterred. The council
said sucn exhumation would imperil
public health and moreover they op,
posed taking the bodies from conse-
Grated ground.
Leading physicians said, however
that exhhmation would not be harmful
but even this view, coupled with ap'
peas to the American consul and Lord
WimbOrne proved fruitless.
