SOFIA PLOT TIERS
. JEERED BY KIN
Of DEAD
Relatives Hoot at Men and
Women Being Tried in
Bomb Outrage
By Constantine StephanOve.
International News Service.

SOFIA, May 10. - Bereaved
relatives of the approximately
$50 persons who were killed in
the recent bombing of Sveti Kral
Cathedral by communists, made a
demonstration today against those
on trial charged with completely
in that crime.
Kisses greeted the prisoners
and many cried at the two &C
cused women:
"Have you wOman's heart ?"
Police prevented the relatives
from attacking the prisoners.
Men Heavily ShackIed.
One Of the women is French and
the other Swiss. George Nicoleva,
son of the French woman, and
Peroshemlieff an agitator, are
charged with sheltering Friedman
and other arch cOnspiratOrs at The
time authorities were seeking them
following the bombing.
The men were brought into court
with heavy chains dangling from
their wrists and secured to their
ankles. The women were unfet-
tered, but walked with dOwncast
faces. The court room was throng-
ed with widows and orphans of
the cathedral victims.
Evidence was brought out that
the French woman had dressed in.
juries which the conspirator Fried,
man received. The prosecutor
stressed this point in demanding the
death penalty for all except the
French woman's son, who is a
minor.
Trial Likely To BE Short.
1t is the general belief around the
court that the trial will be short
and that the adult prisoners will
be executed at the same time as
Friedman and his qccomplices.
They are already under death
sentence.
Twenty widows and orphans have
filed suits for damages against all
Of the accused, who, attorneys for
the widows and orphans pointed
out, made great show of their
luxury, rich furniture and auto
mobiles"
The court was said to be in pos.
session of many receipts for money
from the central committee" which
bear the notation for services
rendered"

POST
CaIIiher Heads List as Pos
sibIe Successor to Oyster.
Baker Also Prominent I

Appointment of a successor to
the late Commissioner James F.
Oyster probably win not be made
by President Coolidge for several
weeks, it was learned today.
A movement to have the Chief
Executive select a member of the
new Citizens Advisory Council for
the post is under consideration.
The job of Commissioner is al
ways a much sought one, particu-
larly that of police and fire Com
missioner. The score or more per-
sons who were in the running
when Commissioners Cuno H. Ru-
dolph and Mr.. Oyster were named
are expected to again campaign
for the job.
Salary Is Increased.
Since Rudolph and Oyster took
office the salary has been increased
50 per cent, from $1,000 to $500.
This pay increase will probably
attract those who heretofore would
not consider the post because of
the low figure.
The man most prominently men,
toned as Oysters successor is
William T. Galliher, who was chair.
man of the inaugural committee.
t. frtn ~
Coolidge and is identified with local
Republican organizations.
Galliher, however, will not be
considered If President Coolidge fol-
lows the unwritten policies Of Pres
i6ents in appointing one Republican
and one Democrat. Rudolph is a
Republican.
However, the President may make
an exception in Galliher's case to
reward him for his work at the
inauguration.
May Follow Wilson.
The late President Wilson during
Ills administration broke the long
established unwritten rule and
named two Democrats as city heads
Charles A. Baker, for three years
president Of the Federation of Citi-
zens Associations and, member of
the Citizens Advisory Council, has
also been prominently mentioned.
Likewise the name of Arthur
Carr, local builder and secretary
of the Board of Trade, also has
been mentioned.
Others who are being talked Of
are Jesse c. Suter. chairman of the
citizens council; John w. Fenton,
ir., former secretary to Senator
Elkins Of West Virginia.; Henry il.
Classic, lawyer; Richard s. Whaley,
former member Of Congress and for
mer chairman of the District Rent
Commission, and Julius I. Peyser,
member of the Board of Education.

altered after q conference with the
