 Case Against Socialists

New York, July 3-The federal gov- ernment today closed it's case against Emma Goldman and Alexander Berk- man. charged with conspiring to ob- struct the selective draft law by elrcu- lsting anti-conscription propa aganda.
 William H. Rudolph. a police depart ment stenographer, the last witness for the government. submitted his report of a speech made by Berkman at a recent riotous meeting in the Bronx.

 Extracts from Miss Goldman's publi- cation. Mother Earth" and from Berk- mans paper, The Blast" declaring transcription will bring a terrible cen- fIict," were read into the record.
 John Reed, writer, the first witness called by the defense. testified that he saw two soldiers throw electric bulbs upon the speakers platform at The meeting in the Bronx which precipitated a riot.
 Lincoln steffins another writer. de- clared Berkman and Miss Goldman never had urged force in opposing conscrip- ton or any other measure.
 The trial will be resumed Thursday morning.

PLANT FROM WHICH TEUTONS MAKE TEAR GAS GROWS IN TEXAS

Washington, July s.-tspeciaL)-A plant of the same genus as the sabadilla' from which the Germans manufacture the so- called poison or tear-producing gases, grows in Texas and possibly in other southern states.
 statement to that effect is author ized by the Smithsonian institution.
 Because of that fact Texas, in other respects than offering it's sons and It's money may have opportunity of serving the government Should the United States conclude to fight fire with fire, it will be able according to the statement of the institution, easily to do so.
 The statement of the institution, relat- ing the fact that the source of the Ger man gases is Venezuela, follows:
 "A recent pamphlet on the field work conducted by and for the Smithsonian in- sttution states that while carrying or botanical explorations in Venezuela last fall Dr. J. N Rose, associate curator of plants in the National museum, secured some interesting specimens of sabadilla Venezuelan plant of the lily family from the seeds of which are produced some of the asphyxiating and tear pro ducing gases used by the Germans in the present war.
 The specimens were secured by Dr. Rose through the cooperation of Consul Homer Brett, La Guaira, Venezuela, who stated in report of the department of commerce sometime ago that this plant is known locally as cevadilla, a diminu- tive of the Spanish word cebada, meaning barley, and occurs in Venezuela and Mexico. Its highly poisonous seeds have long been used in medicine"
