FOUND GUILTY OF
 CONTEMPT OF COURT
Jndge Perry Decides Against Judge Ben Lindsey of Juvenile Tri-
 bunal- sentence Deferred.

s <
 Denver, Col. Aug. 4.--Judge Ben B Lindsey of the Denver Juvenile court yesterday was found guilty of contempt of court by District Judge John A Perry. Sentence was deferred pending Judge Lindsey's return from the east.
 The contempt case resulted from Judge Lindsey's refusal to reveal on the witness stand what he claimed was confidential conversation with Neal Wright, aged 12, whose testi- niony in criminal court had much to do with the acquittal of his mother, Mrs Bertha Wright. charged with the murder of her husband.
 John. A. Wright was shot while seeking to gain entrance to his home here on April IS. Mrs. Wright was charged with the killing. Neal Wright testifed at the trial that he, not hA mother, fired the fatal shot, and that 1t was accidental. The district at tcrney claimed that Neal previously had told different story to Judge Lindsey, and called Lindsey as wit ness. Judge Lindsey declared the boys confidential communications was pri- vileged and refused to testify. Mrs Wright was acquitted June 10. Tn the meantime Judge Lindsey has been cited for contempt

], weather virtually disintegrated the racing contingent of the New fork Yacht club cruising squadron yester- day.
 1 Staring for Newport from New London this forenoon, off Fishers Island the yachts bumped into smarting cross seas and a twenty-nve mile east wind which at once put sew eral yachts out of commission through breaks and strains of various sorts and drove other craft to seek the shelter of the harbor
 Chief of the disabled vessels was the Resolute, one ok the Americas Cup candidates, which met with an accident to her top hammer and was lowed to port The Resolute's rival the vanitie, carrying working top- sail which the former did not do, went through the ordeal in gallant style and was the first of the racing craft to cross the finish line.
 The vanitie finished at 316 D, ni.. after thresh of thirty weight miles When A. S. Cochran's boat crossed the line only the gr..at ninety-foot schooner Enchantress was in sight, and she was miles away. The En- chantress was, the second boat to fin- ish. The Samuri and the Crawling of the fifty-footers finished in order
 The vanitie gains the credit of a victory, since once a yacht crosses the starting line in a race she must keep herself together and loses the contest if she leaves it, as the Reso- 1ute did.

K. Of [. CONDEMN
 RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY
Power of Pope Defined in Report Made to Supreme Council

Seattle Wash. Aug. 4--The Supreme Council of the Knightsof Columbus, in convention here, received yesterday the report of the Commission on Re- ligious prejudices which expressed the belief that American fair play will prevail over religious bigotry."
 The report. presented by Col. P. H. Callahan, chairman, expressed satis- faction for aid by the general pubic and special mention was made of the fairness shown by the Associated Press and newspapers in general re- earding religious matters.
 Seven Recommendations.
 Seven recommendation were st- tached to the report. The first C. these declared principal cause for prejudice against Catholics arose frori oh erroneous belief among non-Cntii- olics that we owe such allegiance 10 the Pope as is incompatible wisn proper allegiance to our country" We should lose no proper occa- sion to declare the position of Cath- olics,' slated the report and tho teachings of the church on this ma.- ter, namely, that while Catholics a. knOWlcQkS tae FOpc 10 De supreme va spiritual matters, they do not ho,d that he has any authority in civil matters. If any spiritual authority were to direct us to do any act con- trary to the rigns of free citizens. or the welfare of society, we would re bound to disobey' Religious Instruction Necessary. The report declared that Catholics uphold and support the public, lschool system, but feel that religious 'n- structionsis necessary, and therefore I bear an extra burden for priyate schools. An opinion was expressed that in time all general forms of ro-
 ligion will be taught in free schools.
 The report condemns the action of politicians in raising religious issues ] in campaigns, as well as the activities
 of quasi political societies in discri:n-
 mating against persons Of any fai' T. 1 It was recommended that the com l mission be made permanent.

DARE MACHINIsTs TO STRIKE. Metallic Trades Association Puts
 Chip oI Shoulder.

New York. Aug. 4.-The National Metallic Trades association, through it's counsel, H. c Hunter, yesterday formally put a chip on its shoulder and dared 15,000 nachinists em- ployed in New York city and vicinity to go on strike
 MT. Hunter asserted that threats of the International association Of Machinists to call out from 1000 to 10000 of it's men was pure bluff. He stated that the International associa- tion was practically bankrupt and could not afford to pay any large number of men .s6 or $S week, the sums stipulated in case of a strike for single and married men, respec- lively.
 He pointed out that, regardless oi statements issued by offices of the men organization, the total number of men on strike at the Garvin ma chine company works, the only plant affected did not exceed 500.

 Chicago. Aug 4.-An inside story of the murder of Americans in Mexico was told here yesterday by Captain William Mattery, a Chicago aviator. believed dead, who reached this city Monday. Captain Mattery was a member of General Villas avia- tion corps. That he is here to tell the story is not due to the courtesy Of the general Mattery escaped from Mexico as fugitive, with death sentence on his head.
 On July IA, last, despatches from Villas army headquarters announced the death of Captain Mattery, descrlo- = ing how his machine plunged o,ooo feet to earth. Appended was an eutOgy OI MAtlSky E " S@A eAs,O " s' ~ himself. #
 Eludcd His Guards.
 N That, Captain Mattery says. Is the way Villa has of doing things. First, providing a plausible accident alibi Tor American consumption, he then lines the Yankees up and executes them. Mattery, however, upset the plan. After the story of his saccid ental death had been given out, and two hours before the time set for his execution, he eluded his guards and after hazardous experiences reached Ell Paso.
 Captain Mattery gives the names of two American avaitors, one reported killed, the other stseriously injured'' by falls in machines, who, he says, have been executed. They are: Michael Mcclure. a Chicago aviator, shot by q firing squad near Monterey. May 23, because he demanded his pay and threatened to leave the army if he aid not get 1t. Mcclure was Captain Matterys former nnechanician and flying partner in Mexico.
