San Francisco, Jan. 3.-With w.
Bourke Cochran occupying the spot
light as chief counsel for the detense'

Thos ] Mooney, alleged leader OF
the four men and one woman accused
of having plotted to place the bomp
which exploded in the midst of parad-
ers on July last, killed ten persons
and injured fifty, was on trial TOT MS
life.
The presence of Cochran has drawn
the attention of the country to the
trial in much the same way that car
ence Darrows activity in the defense
of the Mcnamara brothers drew the
countrys attention to that trlal live
years ago.

PENDANT is his wife, Rena Mooney, a
music teacher and strike organizer.
Thomas Mooney, leader of. the defend
propaganda and had planned to cause
general strike of United Railways
platform men here a short time be-
fore the fatal Preparedness day
parade.
1t was alleged by the prosecution
that the bomb had been set to eX-
plode at a time when non-union en-
ployes of the street railway lines
would pass the point where the bomb
had been placed at Stewart and Mar
ket streets, but that delay in the
start of the parade upset the plans
Of the dynamiters.
The defense declares all the de-
PENDANTS are innocent and are victims
of circumstantial evidence. Mooney
surrendered to the police after read
ing newspaper statements that he was
implicated in the CRIME. He was
stopping at a summer resort at that
time.
The case has been featured by sew
eral alleged confessions which were
later refuted. A number of photoH
graphs taken on the day of the Pre-
paredness parade are held by both
sides as evidence.
The trial opened in Superior Judge
Frank p. DUNES chambers. District
Attorney Charles NJ. Fickert and a
corps of deputies represent the prose-
cution while Cochran and Maxwell
McNutt, represent the defense.

mand from the seaboard gave fresh

ranged from the same as yesterdays fin
ish to 1ssc higher with May at $1.S01A to
$1S1A and July at $1.46K to $1.47A
were followed by slight sag and then a
substantial advance all around.
The uplift of prices was temporarily in
terrupted by reports showing activity on
the part of submarines but buying broad

prices up with a rush. The-close was

CHAMPIONSHIP GAME To Be STAGED
AT ATHLETIC PARK SUNDAY AT 3

: This viii be perhaps the last game
j Until the Portland team comes here
and will give the fans a little rest
from baseball The Beavers are here
On a guarantee and il is up 10 the
Honolulu fans to support the games
Il they are run right. II the Portland
trip ia a successful one, then We may
see ether teams down here in future
years. =.....
II is known that A. l. Castle is op-
posed TO staging games before the
Portland series, and although II. NJ. F.
may try to stage contests IT is doubt
full if the plans go through. II is a
big mistake TO keep on playing base
ball ~ or 13 months in the year,
and that with other reasons has hurt
the game here.
Ready for Portland
Without doubt enough teams can be
lined up TO give the Portlanders some
hard contests end they will have an
opportunity TO get In shape before
the Webfoot tribe arrives in the city.
IL may be possible that McCredie will
be ready TO play the day after arrival,
but in that case the best bet will be
to support the local teams. as some
of the Beavers have come from the
SHOWS and will not be in shape to
pitch their best ball from the jump.
The Braves and st Louis contest
is, of course. the principal topic of in
terest at present. as the McCredie
crew will rot arrive for some time,
and the two local teams have been
trying to settle the championship for
months Let il be hoped that the rain
viii hesitate ior few days until this
family quarrel is settled.
The teams will use practically the
same lineup as on last Sunday, with
Silva at fist in place of Rosa. Both
teams are especially strong in the
pitching department and behind the
bat. Lee and Kurisaki shape up well.
The Saints VIII have lead in the
fielding end, but the Braves may ont
lit them This would leave the
teams about on par and there will
be no favorite when the two teams
clash at 3 o'clock in the local ball
yard.
