District Attorney Buron Fits an
nounced last night that he had ordered
an investigation and that If the find
ings warranted he would file the per-

terday to contradict the testimony of
State witnesses that he paid S125,000
and made gifts to the Reyes family to
escape conviction on fraud charge
year ago, was expected to finish his
story some time today.
Rosenberg made blanket denial of
the evidence of his former co-defend-
Berman, who turned States evidence in
the present case, testified that Rosen-
berg told him he had paid S125.000 to
Getzoff, the tailor, for Reyes, and had
induced him, Berman, to pay 10000

N0RTHC0TT'S FATHER
CHANGES EVIDENCE
State Witness Repudiates Former
Statements in Case Of Youth
Held in Ranch Murders.
BY the Associated Press.

by Tie AeSOSldbSQ
RIVERSIDE, Calf. January 30.-The
testimony of Cyrus Northcott In behalf
OF his son, Gordon Stewart Northcott,
encouraged the latter today to continue
single-handed his own defense in his
trial on charges of numbering three
boys on his ranch near here.
The elder Northcott who has been
held in jail for months as material
witness for the State, repudiated some
of the statements he made to investi-
gators at the outset of the case when
called as defense witness. The prose-
cution did not put him on the stand.
More testimony from the. father was
in prospect for today, aftSr which the
accused youth may place his mother
Mrs. Sarah Louisa Northcott, on the
stand. She was returned here as
witness from San Quentin Prison,
where she is serving a life sentence
on her plea Of guilty of participating
in the murder of one of the four youths
alleged to have been slain at the ranch.
Cyrus Northcott was on the stand
most OF yesterday. At first his atti-
tude was hostile, but as the sons ques-
tioning progressed it became apparent
that the father was not going to help
the prosecution.
The son, apparently sensing the
change, was quick to modify the tone

whom previously he had vowed he
would take to the gallows with me-"
On cross-eXaminaticn, the elder

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras. January
30.--A plan of Augustine SANDING to
overthrow the new Liberal government
of Nicaragua after giving the appear
ance of abandoning the warfare which
he has Waged for two years was dis
closed here yesterday. Froylan Turcios,
who has been the general representative
abroad of the rebel leader. resigned
rather than subscribe to these methods.
SANDING outlined the plan last De-
cember in letter to Turcios. He would
agree to cease fighting and leave the
country, provided all United States
troops evacuate Nicaragua. SANDING
was to discharge his men and s..Irender,
apparently. his arms to President Jose
Maria Moncada as soon as the Marines
had left the departments of ESteli, Ma
tagalapa, JinOtega and Nueva Segvia.
SANDING, however, would surrender
only part of the arms and would hide
his main armament in the mountains.
His men would remain in these four
northern departments, apparently dedi-
Gated to agricultural work, but in real
ity for call from their reader.
SANDING would go to Mexico and
while total evacuation was being COM
pleted by American troops ne WOULD
secretly organize a strong maritime
expedition Once the country was clear
of it's northern defenders, he would at
tack the important seaport of Corinto
while his former 2arnay reorganized,
would join him and march on the
capital
Turcios discouraged the plan and told
SANDING it was foolish and unpatriotic
His resignation was accepted and he was
so deeply hurt by the offensive tone Of
Sandino's reply that he threatened to
expose completely the plans of San
dino.

NEW YORK, January 30.-Police
Commissioner Whalen announced yes

Torres, his chauffeur for IL years be-
cause of the argument the man had
with traffic officer on Fifth avenue
Yesterday. The policeman, Michael
Curry, has been transferred from
traffic ito patrol duty.
Whalen said the chauffeur should
have obeyed Curry when ordered to
move Mrs. Whalen's automobile, which
was parked in front of a store. On
the other hand, the commissioner
thought the patrolman should have used
common sense" and not made spec
tacle of himself" at so public a place as
Fifth avenue and Thirty eighth street.
Curry took Torres to a police sta
ton on charge of obstructing traffic,
but the complaint was dismissed. A
summons would have been enough, in
