MOSCOW, May 24-Many others of

spiracy We're seriously compromised
by detailed testimony given by Kali
ganov, whose examination was con-
tinued yesterday.
The defense lawyers attempted un-
successfully to confuse Kalganov.
Kalganov had declared that those
who had participated in the conspir-
acy had acted in accordance with in
structions from former mine owners
who first desired to keep the mines
intact but who later demanded the re-
duction of coal production by all pos
sible means including the destruction
of machinery.
Samilov, former mine owner, was
then examined. He admitted all of
the charges levelled against him. He
declared that the sabotage was pos
sible because the control over the
higher engineers was superficial.

PLAN u. S. LOAN
FOR ENSLAvINC
NICARAGUA Poems
Kellogg, M cCoy and
Bankers Confer

WASHINGTON, May 24.-Special
arrangements for the complete eco
nomic enmeshment of Nicaragua thru
a proposed loan of $12,O00,000 were
given a new impetus at yesterdays
conference between leading officials
of the United States state department
cooperating with leaders of several
large financial interests. Secretary of
State Kellogg, Dr.. w. W. Cumber-
land, who has recently completed a
financial survey of Nicaragua in the
interest of the New York bankers
and Brigadier- General Frank R. Nc
Coy, chosen by President Coolidge to
"superintend" the pending elections
in Nicaragua, were at the conference.
The long projected loan by the
American financiers to the Nicara-
guam regime placed in power by the
American marine corps was the chief
topic of discussion and it is intimated
that announcement of the loan may
be Forthcoming in the near future. 1t
is generally estimated that the loan
will amount to at least $12,000,000.
DR.. Cumberland, reporting favor
ably on the power of the Nicaraguan
authorities to raise the loan by taxes
on the poems, increased by customs
duties, urged the practicability of
lending the money. He pointed out
that while s6089 900 would be used
for the consolidation of debts incurred
by the leaders of the government
approximately S6,000,000 would still
be free for consolidating American
power thruout the country by thoro
organization of the Nicaraguan con-
stabulary differed by Americans, by
reimbursing the United States for
expenses incurred in experimenting
the Nicaraguan election, and by a full
payment of all American claims for
alleged damages incurred during the
recent fighting.
After outlining the sources by
which the American bankers will Sc
cure the proposed loan, DR.. Cumber-
land added that the Nicaraguan cost
OF maintaining the projected Nicara-
guam railroad to the east coast would
be 100000 per year more than oper-
ating expenses. He therefore indi-
Gated the fruitful possibilities for in
vestment of American capital in con-
STRUGGLING parallel causeway to Blue
fields.
The bankers, Secretary Kellogg and
Brigadier- General Mccoy are said to
have found themselves in perfect ac-
cord on the Nicaraguan loan.

BOMBAY, May 24,-The strike of
the textile workers at Bombay, Shola-
pur and other large industrial centers
continues unbroken in spite of the per-
sistent efforts of the government
police and troops to terrorize the
strikers.
Thousands of men and women,

some of the largest in India, are
maintaining their strike altho the
agents of the British authorities are
endeavoring to spread discomfort talk

who maintain menacing attitude to-
wards the strikers, have failed to
break the strike which is reported to
be stronger today than ever.
Sympathy for the striking textile
workers has spread thru all sections
of the Indian working class and is
leading to a rapid rise in mass resent
ment thruout the country. The gov

alarm at the number of local dis
turbances which have indicated the

thorities that the workers on the In
