MRS. RENA MOONEY IS ACQUITTED OF
 MURDER BY JURY
(Continued from Page 1.)

Dissatisfied with the verdict in the case of Thomas J. Mooney. union labor organizations. which contributed larg- 1 ely to the defense fund through the International Workers Defense League caused the appointment of silent l jury composed of labor men, to hear evidence adduced at Mrs. Mooney's trial and render an independent verd- jet to organized labor.
 Mrs Mooney was brought to trial May 21 before Superior Judge Emmet Seawell, of Santa Rosa. and a jury.
 The specific charge against her was the murder of Mrs. Myrtle Irene Van Leo, one of the ten victims of the ex- plosion In addition the defendant was charged with having been mem- ber of a 'murderous conspiracy" to overthrow the government and bring about state of anarchy. Much testi- mony and many exhibits, intended to support this theory were ruled out by Judge Seawell.

Mrs Mooney and the four other defendants 1 told of their movements in detail on | the afternoon of the bomb murders. | The defense sought to prove that oth- CTS than the defendants were the per sons who had been seen in the vicinity of the explosion by the state witnesses.

LAW RELATING WHISKY SHIPMENTS
 IS INTERPRETED

Attorney General Gregory has issu- ed the following instructions to United States attorneys:
 On account of the large number Of inquiries by United States attorneys relating to the construction to be plac- ed on the Reed amendment (39 Stat, 1858, 1069) and the prosecutions there under. you are herein advised of this departments interpretation of certain provisions of the law.
 Reed Amendment Outlined.
 The Reed amendment makes it a Federal offense to 'cause intoxicating liquors to be transported in the inter- state. commerce, except for scientific, sacramental, medicinal, and mechani- cal purposes, into any State or Terri tory the laws of which State or Terri tory prohibit the manufacture or sale therein of intoxicating liquors for bev- craze purposes" although the State law may not prohibit such importation or may specifically permit the impor- tation of intoxicating liquors in desig- hated quantities. (See 54 Cong Rec, pt I. pp. 3330-3336 and 3793-3S06.
 Every form of transportation is for bidden, whether by common carrier, by private conveyance, in baggage, or on the person. In connection with the prohibition against the carriage of liq- uor on the person, your attention is called to the case of United States vs Chavez OPS U. S., 525, 532-533). The carrier or shipper may be prosecuted in any district from, through, or into which the liquor is transported.

The brotherhood chiefs, in formal
statement expressed indignation at the
altitude taken by the railroads in de-
laring a strike would be unpatriotic.
1T goes without saying" the state
ment declared, that the railroad en-
ployes have been patient and loyal to
the interest of the country, and in the
event of war have offered their serv-
ces to the government. 1t must not be
when the railroads have persistently
denied their employees that which was
intended by the president in his propo-
sition, and that which was intended by
congress in the Adamson law the
Dads, during years period
showed net earnings of over a thou
sand million dollars, while the en-
ployes, with no increase in wages, have
suffered an increase in cost of living
equal to more than forty per cent.
IF, after more than a year, we have
failed to secure some relief, and train
an enginemen conclude to fold their
hands and starve in reality rather than
by degrees, should they be considered
as disloyal to their flag?"
w. G. Lee was informed tonight of
the announcement from Washington
that President Wilson would do every
thing in his power to avert strike
and probably would appeal directly to
the patriotism of the men themselves.
He was asked what effect this would
have.
why do you ask me that?" he de-
manded. I'VE have heard nothing from
the president of the United States.

meeting that they were destined to
hold, the building was surrounded
and the besiegers poured rifle and
machine GIN fire upon the defenders.
For a few hours the fiercest battle
of the day continued the streets
were swept by a steady fusillade and
the crowds scattered for the nearest
shelter, some of the people being
compelled ID spend the night in court
yards or corridors of office buildings
or wherever they first found refuge.
Toward morning there was sud-
den lull, broken by eXultant shouts.
which deepened into a roar and was
succeeded by the Russian revolution
airy ''Marseillaise." The regiments
defending the admiralty had sur
rendered and gone over to the side
of the revolutionists.
The ministers in the admiralty
building were then arrested, and the
Russian national colors were replaced
by the red flag of the revolutionists.
Although sporadic fighting contin-
ued between small groups until
Wednesday. the cause of the people
had triumphed."

Every Sunday in Phoenix will be
orderly, moral and decorous' bye and
bye, if the ordinance it is proposed TO
initiate at the approaching general
city election is approved by the voters
of this city. The Sunday spirit may
lap over into the week, and Washaay
may become a sort of religious cere-
mony. probably on the basis that
washing day comes on Monday, be-
cause cleanliness is next to Goodness.
And having spent two days in order
ly, moral and decorous" pursuits, the
habit is bound to grow- until, perhaps,
the words of the old song. Every
Day'll be Sunday, Bye and Bye" win
be true when applied to the metropolis
Of the southwest.
OF course the advocates of the petit
ton, which was placed in circulation
yesterday, do not claim all these
things. In fact they simply declare
that the purpose of the proposed ordi-
nance is to make Phoenix a better
town in which to live, and one in
which unnecessary labor and lack OF
Observance of the first day of the
week, will be things of the past. The
only way in which the proposed orui-
nance approaches the sordid procedure
in the handling of the criminal ele-
ment lays in the punishment which IL
stead of being d series of slaps upon
the wrists, reselts to the common
penalty of law which calls for a fine
of filthy lucre or days spent in a secu-
lar prison.
| And for all the apparent drastic
provisions of the proposed measure,
those handling it's circulation insist
that conditions in Phoenix at this tire
require something of the sort. If APP
proved by a vote of the people, it will
be up to the commission to enact the
measure, which is as follows:
Phoenix, Arizona.
To the City Clerk of the City of Phoe-
nix. Arizona:

We, the undersigned, residents o.

inclined to give out particulars about
the affair, but finally stated that the
girls name was Marguerite Martin.
and that she had gone riding with a
driver working on the Buckeye line.
She seemed to think the driver had
registered there the night before, and
pointed out his name on the register
as John Galbryn. She described him
as a short, stocky man, wearing an
olive drab suit and with his chauf-
feur's license pinned on his cap. The
girl at the time the landlady was
speaking was under the influence of

disguised at the accident to his car
that he did not bring the car in with
him. He stated that it must have
been Dendy who took the car, though
he was at a loss to explain what had
become of him. The two of them had
just purchased the machine yesterday
afternoon, and the joy ride which re-
suited in the accident, was the initial
trip.
How 1t Happened.
According to the story told by the
Martin girl at the hospital, the driver
Of the car, whose name she professed
not 10 KNOW, WAS going nOTln on CEN
trail avenue at pretty good rate of
speed. He turned out to pass another
machine. dropped over on the dirt
road, and as he swung back to the
pavement, he cramped the car too
far, and it turned over. She did not
Know how many times it turned, but
it must have gone completely over, as
it was on it's wheels when found.
The girl was not unconscious. At
tsndants at the Phoenix Sanitarium

in. and that they had disappeared right
away.
Wish, part owner of the car, came
into the police station and remained
there for some time, while efforts were
made to locate the driver of the car
He said he had left the machine at
the Dublin corral at 6 o'clock and
supposed it would stay there the rest
Of the night. The first intimation he
had that it was gone| was when he
was phoned by another stage driver
that some one had stolen his new cal

government footing bills for additional
cost.
The battle cruisers, the fixed limit of
cost of which is $19,000,000 per ship,
exclusive of speeding up expense was
placed as follows:
Newport News Shipbuilding and
Dry Dock company, two ships: Fore
River Shipbuilding corporation, one
ship; New York Shipbuilding COM
pany, one ship. With the exception of
the New York company, each private
builder will have to install new ways
and machinery for the huge craft. The
government will bear it's fair share of
this expense. Already an appropria-
! ton of 100000 has been ordered ex-
pended to equip the Philadelphia yard
for capital ships building.
Four of the scout cruisers will be
built on the Pacific coast, two by the
Seattle Construction company, and
two by the Union Iron Works at San
Francisco; The other two will be

addition to the fifteen destroyers au-
thorized by the last naval appropria-

/ to construct many craft of this type
under the small boat emergency fund
Of the authorized building program
remaining to be contracted for, are
! three dreadnaughts, 50 submarines
the 10 destroyers, and several auxiliary
vessels. Bids. will be opened early in
April on these craft and at the same
time orders will be placed for more

WASHINGTON, March Icon
tracts for what is believed to be the
largest single order for fighting craft
ever given by any nation were placed
by the navy department today. Private
builders undertook to turn out four
great battle cruisers and six scout
cruisers, costing nearly $l12,000,0OO for
hulls and machinery alone, and pledged
themselves to keep = per cent of their
working forces on navy construction.
In response to an appeal to their
patriotism by Secretary Daniels, the
major ship builders have agreed TO ac-
cept 10 per cent net profit on the bat
tie cruisers, whose cost will represent
about S76.000,000 of the total sum in
volved in today's contracts. A fifth
battle cruiser will be built at the Phil
adelphia navy yard, =, as not to strain
the limit of facilities of private es-
adjustments
The builders are besieged with Of
fers of merchant work, and are getting
as high as so per cent profit on these
jobs with more work in sight than
they can do. They have placed their
facilities at the disposal of the govel n
ment making is unnecessary for the

on Sunday, together with news of food
riots in the Russian capital, which al
though according to Geographic re-
ports, were not of serious nature
caused considerable speculation here
to how events were progressing.
The proclamation by the military
governor in Petrograd forbidding any
street assemblages and declaring that
any disorders would be ruthlessly sup
pressed, made it apparent that af-
fairs were graver than the dispatches
allowed by the Russian censorship
would indicate. Then came two days
of absolute silence from Petrograd,
which extended even to official war
bulletins and rumors began to circu-
late that some kind of a revolution
was hapDening These reports were
