TIMES CASES SET McNamaras to Be Tried for Murder October 1. MRS. M'MANIGAL IS CITED Woman May Re In Contempt for IU fnslnic to Answer Whether She Saw One of Defendants Thawing Dynamite. LOS ANGELES. July 14. John J. McNamara, the labor leader and his brother. James B.. will be brought to trial October fl on the first of the 1 murder indictments found as a result of the explosion which wrecked the Times newspaper building In October of last year. The date was set today by Judge Bordwell as a compromise between the contending claims of defense and prose cution. The defense wanted the case delayed until next December, while the prosecution Insisted upon trial not later than August 1. Joseph Scott, for the defense, de clared that the "procedure followed In bringing the accused brothers to Los Angeles was a . d Li grace upon the court." "There is no reason for your making that remark. Mr. Seott.t said Judge BnrdwelL "I am sorry you made It." Scott said the prosecution had taken days and weeks to obtain the views of experts on the explosion at the Times plant, where 1 employes lost their lives. He said the defense wished to make scientific Investigations and urged that the trial be not set before December 1. Proeecutor Fredericks said the prosecution wished to be as fair as was consistent with duty, but thought the best time for tha trial was about September 1. Judge BordwelL saying that he must consider both sides, set October 11, and It was agreed that the first case to be tried would be that In which the Mc Namaras are accused of having mur dered J. Wesley Reeves, a Times' sten ographer, who met death In the ex plosion. Arthur Vettch, Assistant District At torney, filed an affidavit In the Su perior Court late 1n the day contain ing the questions which Mrs. Or tie Mo Manlgal refused to answer when sum moned before the grand Jury. A cita tion was Issued summoning her Into court next Monday afternoon to an swer the questions, or show cause why she should not. or go to jail. The list of questions Mrs. McManlgal declined to answer was a long one. Some of the questions were: "Did yon In April. 111. go to Indian apolis to sea J. J. McXaxnaraT" "Did you in April receive any tele phone or telegraphic messages from J. J. McNamara In Indianapolis?" "Did you In February or March have any dynamite stored in your premises, at 414 South Halstead street, Chicago?" "Did you at that time see J. B. Mc Namara. known as J. B. Bryce. and Frank Sullivan, thaw dynamite over the radiator In your home?" Barn Falls to Find Men. LONDON. July 14. The American de tective. William J. Burns, who came here some, weeks ago.

KLAMATH FALLS. Juy 14. (Spe cial.) C. C Chapman, secretary and manager of the Portland Commercial Club, aocompanled By airs, unapman. Is In Klamath Falls getting In touch with conditions and the needs of the country, that he may be better able to answer questions asked aoout tnis re gion. Mr. Chapman came here from Prlnevtlle and Burns by automobile, by way of Lakevlew. He was one of the prime movers In the recent organiza tlon of the Central Oregon Develop' ment League at Prlnevllle. Speaking of the general feeling here and in Lake County that Dusiness in terests and Portland in general have turned a cold shoulder toward these counties, while California has culti vated closer business relations with this Dart of Oregon, Mr. Chapman said: "I am Inclined to believe that this feeling here is due more to Ignorance on the part of the people at both ends than through any Intentional feeling or action. Perhaps Portland has not reached out for the business of the Klamath section and done quite as much 'boosting for It as she might have done but this has largely been a result of the Inaccessibility of the country In the past. California has had direct railroad communication here for more than two years and even before this has been In a position for years to bid for the Klamath bus! ness while Portland has not. Regard less of this, however. Portland has done a great deal more for Klamath than many give her credit of having done." PACKER TO VIEW SITE SULZBERGER REPRESENTATIVE DIE IN PORTLAND. . I. Levy Expected to Innpect I vocation for Proposed Plant Prepara tory to Decision, With the arrival In Portland today of L. Levy, general superintendent of con struction for Sulzberger 4b Son, of Chi cago, definite announcement will be made relative to the plans of Schwartz child & Sulzberger, the big packing firm that Is invading the Pacific Coast. It Is announced, unofficially, that tha proposed packing plant to be built on the Peninsula by this concern will call for an Immediate outlay of $600. 000. Soundings have been made for the foundation for the main buildings and the operations are understood to have produced satisfactory results. All of the facts In connection with the pro posed plant have been placed In the hands of Mr. Levy so that when he ar rives here today only a cursory inspec tion of the site will be necessary before announcement Is made regarding Im mediate construction of the plant, Mr. Levy waa expected to arrive from San Francisco yesterday afternoon. If he arrives this morning a luncheon will be given In his honor at the Portland Commercial Club. He la considered one of the most prominent packing-house authorities In the country. He has built several large plants, the last one being at Oklahoma City, which cost 1 1.000.000. The Sulzberger concern re cently acquired the large Meyer pack ing plant at Los Angeles. One of the results of tha location of the tlant here that is considered es pecially Important wDl be the creation of sharp competition with other packing-house Interests operating In the Northwest. It will mean that Portland will become a great livestock center, it is declared. With a competitive mar ket for livestock created, farmers and stockmen will at once realise the fact there will be open bidding for stock. They will have tha choice of selling where they can get the best prices. Many stockmen have preferred to dis pose of their herds on the ground in stead of shipping them to Portland. As a result, buyers from Puget Sound and other places have Invaded the Oregon country and bought and shipped their cattle to Seattle and other places. In many cases sales have been consider ably telow tha market quotations. With a stiff, competitive market es tablished in Portland. It Is pointed out that farmers will be willing to ship their stock here before accepting con tracts. Gnn Fails. Deputy Killed, 8POKANE. Wash- July 14. James M.

The Sen ate today agreed upon voting dates for the measures now pending before it. The leaders met at I o'clock and soon reached a decision, which presages adjournment soon after August 7. The agreement followed a series of conferences between Senators Penrose. La Follette. Martin. Smoot, Bailey, Stone, Borah, Bristow and other Sen ators and was formally offered in tha Senate by Senator Penrose as leader of tha Republicans. The original suggestion for an agreement was made by La Follette, Republican insurgent, who was willing to fix an earlier date than that named for the vote on reciprocity. The de mand for a later date was made by others, who desired to speak on this bill. Obstacles Are Overcome. Many obstacles to fixing the series of dates were encountered. Borah in sisted on a date for consideration of the conference report on the Joint reso lution for the election of United States Senators by dlreot vote of the people, and the vote on statehood was fixed for the "legislative day" of August 7, Ins tea q of calendar day of that date. In order to protect the popular elec tion bllL As soon aa the agreement was reached and reported to the Senate, the acquiescence of the regular Demo crats was expressed by Senator Mar tin. "We think .ample time has been al lowed for the debate of all measures," said Martin. La Follette agreed that all Interests In debate had been consulted and that It had been deemed wise to agree upon dates when all of the important bills now pending could be disposed of. Reciprocity Debate Near End. The reclproolty debate will be quick ly terminated and other bills taken up for discussion. Penrose said he under stood the reciprocity debate was about finished. Martin said the Democrats would en deavor to secure consideration of the publicity of campaign contributions bill before Congress adjourns. Kenyon asked particularly as to this bill. Penrose said it had been impossible to get an agreement on more bills than those named, but that the Senate would be free to taka up the publicity bill if it so desired. The agreement to vote is so drawn that amendments may be voted on at any time, Bristow called attention to the fact that this would prevent Sen ators from leaving Washington until the day of the votes. "If they do, they may find therr bills amended when they get back," he added. Cummins Introduced new amend ments to the reciprocity bill today. One sought to couple a revision of the tariff on metals with the reciprocity measure: the other proposed a revi sion of the duty on rllcloth and lin oleum.
