Schmidt murder trial to relate some inside history of the all legged eastern conspiracy, which the prosecution asserts led to the de- struction of the Los Angeles Times building five years ago. the loss of twenty lives and the indictment of Schmidt.
 Clark, who at one time. was busi- ness manager of the local Iron Workers Union of Cincinnati. was mentioned by James W. Noel. special prosecutor. in his opening statement as the man who produced an explo- sion in Dayton, Ohio. May 25. 1908 According to NoeTs statement.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24-Twice again today the name of Captain K. Boy Ed German naval attache, was brought into the testimony of witnesses at the trial of Karl Buenz, Adolph Hoch- meister, Joseph Pophinghaus and George Kotter, officials of the Ham burg American line accused of eonspi- racy to deceive and defraud the gov ernment of the United States by dis patching relief ships with supplies to German cruisers in the Atlantis and Pacific at the beginning of the war.
 The first of these two occasions re- lated to a telegram sent December 16, 1914, by H. Suhren, captain of the Cos ta Rican steamer Marina Quesada, to Hochmeister advising him that the steamer was sailing that afternoon and that Suhren, needing money, had drawn on him for S1,000. Hochmeister was told to take the matter to Room sol at II Broadway, and Roger B. Wood, for the government, brought out that this was the room which Captain Boy-Ed occupied as his New York headquarters.
 The second time Captain Boy-Ed's Is
 name was connected with the case il
 was likewise brought in by one oi Captain Suhren's telegrams. This mes
 scage was addressed to Philip Volz
 care Nordmann, Room sol, Il Broad
 way and related to Quesada's con-
 templated departure.
 Mir. Wood, informed the court that
 Mir Volz, thus addressed was the Bal timore agent of the North German
 Lloyd, which operated, till the war be.
 gan, large number of Trans Atlantic
 vessels under the German flag. It was possible, Mir. Wood added, that tht North German Lloyd were among the "other conspirators, unknown to thu grand jury mentioned in the indict ment.
 After having established in the fore noon that the defendants had succeed ed in loading coal and supplies aboard at least two of a fleet of five German
 warships and conveys in the Atlanti' in September, 1914, by means of thu Berwind. an American ship flying tn, Stars and Stripes. the government pro ceeded to deal with the Marina Que sada which sailed from Newport News December 16, 1914 for Valparaiso 1 Chile and the Thor, which sailed Aug ust 3, for Buenos Aires. The govern ment charges that they were two Q | the sixteen boats chartered by the de l fendants on their alleged unlawful 1 practice.

While the defendants admit they chartered twelve steamers for the pur- poses charged by tho government denying in their concessions, that by doing so they were guilty of conspiracy they do not admit that they had any thing to do with the Quesada. On the contrary, William Rand, their counsel announced that his clients had nothing whatever to do with this vessel and lstrenuously opposed all testimony con cerning her. The government sought to prove their contention bs the testi- mony of Norman Hamilton, collector of the port of Newport News. Bruce Mcintyre, an employe of the Berwind- White Coal company at Newport News, Elliott M. Parker connected with the Pocahontas' Fuel company at Newport News, and John F. Harper of Norfolk. | From their testimony it developed \ that the Quesada was formerly the | Norwegian steamer Gladstone and that i she changed her colors after the war started. She sailed on a clearance, | granted by MT. Hamilton. after she had been tied up for some time at Newport | news and Norfolk. Her manifest stat
 cd that she was loaded with coal but the government sought to show that
 she also had provisions aboard. Testi-
 lnony on this point was incomplete at
 adjournment.
 The steamer Thor was granted clear 1 ance by MT. Hamilton after Mcintyre 1 had sworn to her manifest. This simp- ly detailed coal as her cargo and gave
 her destination. Mcintyre said he was informed that her cargo was coal from
 Hesler Brothers, shipping agents La ter it developed that she had aboard s3,7O0 worth of provisions and stores paid for by the Hamburg American line. This MT. Rand admitted. McIn-
 tyre said he had been deceived and that the falsity of his oath was unwit- ting. There was nothing to show that
 Hasler Brothers. either knew that she had stores aboard. Collector Hamilton
 asked if he would have cleared her
 had her manifest detailed these stores
 and had be known she was bound fol German ships at sea. replied:
 q would have denied clearance, and
 instituted proceedings against hci
 master for taking a false oath.'
 MT. Hamilton was asked by counse
 for the defense if the British vice con-
 suPs at Norfolk and Newport News
 had not come to him with their infor-
 nation and fears and suspicious an6
 demanded that he do what they termed
 his duty in preventing supplies iron leaving port for German warships a sea.

sonable compensation. to the New Haven. Just what the compensation was the government had not brought out when the trial adjourned late to- day. until Monday, but it was under stood that the prosecution expected to prove that it was in the neighbor- hood of S15O.O0O.
 The Billiard deal was arranged. ac- cording to the government, so the New Haven could keep control of the Boston and Maine until an act was passed by the Massachusetts legislature permitting it to own it legally.
 The government is attempting to show that the New Haven had suf- ficient control over Billiard while he had the stock to force him to give up his profits. The defense contends that while the stock was in Billiard $ hands it was not in possession of the New Haven and that Billiard was a free agent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-All ques tions affecting the status of diplomatic and consular representatives of bellig- erent governments in the United States will be determined by the state depart ment on board grounds of policy With especial reference to the maintenance of friendly relations with foreign gov ernments
 This was made known today by Sec retary Lansing when his attention was drawn to testimony given in the fed eraI court at New York that Captain Boy-Ed, the German naval attache, furnished funds whereby a conspiracy was alleged to have been conducted by agents of the Hamburg American line to supply German warships at sea.
 The secretary made it clear that while he had full knowledge of the evil dence on which the cases were being partment had not given it's approval or disapproval to the opening statement by Assistant District Attorney Wood, referring to Captain Boy-Ed. Officials both at the department of state and justice, explained, however, that there was no controversy over jurisdiction between the two branches of the gov ernment At the department of justice it was made clear that all the evidence in it's possession had been brought to the attention of the state department as rapidly as it was gathered but that action affecting diplomatic officers immune from prosecution lay within the province of the state department.
 The position of Secretary Lansing is that diplomatic representatives not only are immune from criminal prose cution, but that nothing that may be done by the department of justice in the development of other eases beyond the state department to ask for the withdrawal of any diplomatic officer In the cases also of consuls general and other accredited agents of foreign gov ernments, even though these do not enjoy diplomatic immunity from prose cution, the attitude of the state de- partment is that there are important questions of policy involved which will guide it in deciding whether a recan should be asked for

ID DETERMINE STATUS IF ALL
 CONSULS IF BELL|GERENTS

In the case of Captain Boy-Ed, Sec retary Lansing's view is that so far as he is able to judge from the informa-
 tion in his possession the German na- val attache did not violate any law in supplying funds to obtain coal and pro visions for belligerent ships at sea since this in itself is not 9. criminal offense. the secretary declined, however, to in dicate what might be the attitude of the department if it should be proved that Captain Boy-Ed had knowledge of or directed the alleged Justification of manifests and clearance papers by agents of the Hamburg American line.
