SEVEN PRISONERS PLEAD GUILTY ID
 ASSAULT CHARGE

Seven prisoners who participated in the attempted jail break at the county jail on August 3, pleaded guilty yes terday before Justice Mckee on a their preliminary examination and were held to answer to the superior court under a bond of $500 each. The men arraigned were: Albert Suncelia, T. o. Long. Raymond Serrano, Estaban Ybarro, Jesus Gonzales, Carl Jacoks and William Reed. They were returned to the county jail and will be tried on the charges sometime this fall.
 The men are charged with beating and kicking John Isaacs, night jailer. The complaint was sworn to by Sheriff Montgomery. The charge arises from an attempt made by the prisoners in the upper tier of cells in the county jail to escape on the night of August g. The attempt took place at 10 o'clock while Isaacs was locking up the upper tier of cells. He had opened the inner door to the tank" and stepped back to permit William Reed who was a trusty to pull out the slop cam
 As Reed drew the heavy can through the door, the men in the east section of the tier rushed out of their cells, and overpowered Isaacs, threw him to the floor and tied a towel about his neck in an effort to choke him. This failing, several of the men struck him and kicked, him. A trusty hearing the noise, rapped- on the outer door to the jail and called the deputies who were in the front office. They rescued Isaacs after threatening to shoot the prisoners and locked them in their cells.
 When the check of the upper cells after the men were locked in was made t was found 16 of the 20 men in that tier were in the east section, the other four were in the cells on the west side These four were one in a cell so that they could close the doors in order that Isaacs could lock them. The plot is thought by the officers to have beer | matched in the lower tier. All of the men in the lower cells were fully l dressed and ready to leave, one pris-
 oner said
 Following the attempt, the men il l the upper cells were brought one bN one before Judge Davis. assistan county attorney, and questioned. Eacl denied that he had taken part but saiC l that he saw the others in it, but coulC not recognize any one. Judge Davi' then decided to bring complaint. against those he thought were tn, ringleaders for assault and complaint'
 against the rest for attempting tt break jail.
 Tuesday night the men sent wort out to the officers that they wer' ready to confess because they did no l feel that it was right for few 70 beal the burden of the whole affair while others equally guilty would escap' punishment. Yesterday morning the!

FILIBUSTER BEGUN
AGAINST NEW
TARIFF MEASURE.

WASHINGTON, Dec 23.-Oppo-
nents of the emergency tariff bill
today started tactics of delay against
it in the senate even before the pas
sage of the bill by %the house had
been officially announced.
Senator Harrison, Mississippi,
started ths filihustering by demapd-
ing a roll call of the senate as soon
as it met. Senator AShurst, Arr
IONA, urged Mr.. Harrison to with
draw his request, but Mr.. Harrison
insisted.
Then Senator Thomas, Colorado,
talked at 'ength on dyestuffs, immi-
grafton, the Colombian treaty and
other subjects.
When the tariff bill was laid before
speech, Mr.. Harrison objected to
second reading. This prevented the
bill being referred to committee, and
as the senate plans to adjourn to-
day, until Monday, no action on the
bill will be possible until then.
The measure, designed to protect
more than a score of agricultural
products for ten months period,
was passed by the house after eight
hours of heated debate, in which the
opposition was led by Representative
Henry T. Rainey, Democrat, of Illi-
ported his attack on the measure,
more than a score of his own party
joined the majority.
Political lines were swept aside in
the final vote, Al Democrats and one

STATE OF WAR
IS PROCLAIMED
BY D'ANNUNZIO

LONDON, Dec. 24.-D'Annunzio
has proclaimed that state of war
exists between his Fiume govern
ment and Italy, and has forbidden
the population Of Fiume to leave the
city, says a Rome dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph, quoting official
advices.
The proclamation, says the Gen.
trail News Rome correspondent, adds
that anyone speaking against DAN
nulzio is liable to be shot.
The evacuation of Fiume by civil
ians has begun, according to a dis
patch from Milan to the London
Times. Already 100 refugees have
arrived at Candrida. The food situa-
ton at Fiume Is considered almost
desperate.
Fiume Is Surrounded
TRIEST, Dec. 24.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press.)-Strong cordons Of
carabineers and Alpi1i, brigaded in
probably a score Of battalions, have
been thrown about Fiume and have
completely isolated that city by land.
The Italian fleet, which has it's head
quarters at Pola, is securing the
Gulf Of Quarnero day and night for
d'Annunzio raiders, and searchlights
played on the waters from twilight
till dawn.
General Caviglia gave Captain
d'Annunzio until 6 o'clock last night
to reach a decision to accept the
treaty Of Rapallo, but the poet-sol-
der permitted the time limit to ex-
pfre. when he replied that the pact
could not be accepted, and he would
resist its enforcement. Following
/ the issuance Of orders to establish a
close blockade, General Caviglia d.
rected that foreign citizens and civ
ilians In Fiume be given forty-eight
hours to leave the city,
