For Instance, the following; paragraph Is to the point: "Ultimately.

And what Socialist made himself ri diculous by such a foolish utterance T No Socialist at all: only a paragraph from hi latest article on the trusts by Theodore Koosevelt. Tr'lve years ago. or when he was still In office and had the power, he would not have dared to make that statement. But he finds It politically safe and expedient to make It now. It la not at ail a radical state ment. On the contrary, it Is simply the echo of K II. Gary, that Is to say. John Ilerpont Morgan, president of all the trusts. Mr. Koosevelt now propose what JHtsmarck attempted In Germany 40 years ago to thwart the Socialist move ment, so-called, which Is In fact the most despotic and degrading, form of capitalism. In this scheme of slate Socialism, or rather state capitalism. Mr. Koosevelt fails to Inform us how the Idle owner f the trusts are to function except as profit absorber and parasites. The trust question will be settled In due time, not In accordance with the preconceived notion or plan of any of us. but In obedience to the laws of evo lutionary progress and In harmony with the Inexorable logic of events.

Reiteration of Position of Year Ago Declared Made Within the Pant. Three Pays. PHILADELPHIA. Nov. II. (Spe cial.) Declaring-that It Is authorized to epsak for Theodore Roosevelt, the North American says that Colonel Roosevelt will support neither President- Taft nor anyone else for Presi dent and that he Is not himself a can didate. The North American refers to a statement made by Colonel Roosevelt a year ago. saying: "He declared most emphatically that he had not pledged his support to Taft, privately or publicly. In set terms or even by Implication. He declared he would not aupport any man for the nomination lb 113. neither Taft nor anyone else. As to the statement that the President believed that he would have Roosevelt's support, Roosevelt said that Taft could not possibly be lieve anything of the kind; that. In fact, neither Taft nor anyone else had one particle of ground for such an opinion." The North American continues: "No more than three days ago Col onel Roosevelt expressed himself to the North American exactly as he had done a year ago. And because of the persistence of unwarranted reports and deductions, he agreed that an author itative statement of his oft-expressed purpose should be printed by this pa per. This utterance, therefore. Is pos itive. "Colonel Roosevelt will not support any man for the nomination in 1912. neither Taft nor anyone else. He never gave Taft any pledge or ofTer of sup port, nor did Taft ever have such Im pression. As to himself, Roosevelt Is not a candidate, nor has he been , at any time. "He says, and wishes the statement to be accepted at Its full value In Its clear and unequivocal meaning, that he desires talk of bis supposed candidacy to cease." White Slave Charge Heard.

The West River Is swarming with pirates and traffic to Wuchoo and Kwangsl prov ince is seriously Imperiled. The steam ships are greatly alarmed and are con sidering the suspension of service. They are continuing for the present with an armed crew. Much indignation has been aroused by the attack by pirates on the Brit ish steamship Shiuon a few days ago, when Chief Officer Nlcnolson was mur dered. The people are becoming clam oroua for Intervention of some kind, to put down lawlessness. In 1906. owing- to piratical outrages, guards were placed on all the steam ers and other precautions were taken but later, because of overconf ldence that the British fjag was Immune from attach, these precautions were relaxed.

Prosecution to Summon SeTeral Hundred Witnesses One of Jurors Already Indicates In ability to Stand Strain. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 26. With eight Jurors sworn and the Jury-getting pro cess somewhat simplified. Inquiry as to what will be heard when evidence is Introduced in the McNamara case brought forth today in a general way from District Attorney Fredericks an outline of how the state will present Its side of the controversy over the de struction of the Los Angeles Times building In October. 1910. After the opening statement by the District Attorney when the Jury is com pleted, maps and diagrams of the building that was blown up will be shown. . Eye-witneBses will be sum moned. . These will Include not only employes who were in the building at the time of the disaster, but those who saw the explosion and Are from the outside. ' Then will come, according to the District Attorney, proof of the death of Charles J. Hag?erty.- Hag gerty's body was found in the base ment near a place In "Ink alley," where it is asserted that an explosive waa placed feloniously. - Many Experts to Testify. Testimony to show that Haggerty was killed Instantly by the force of the explosion and not by fire then will be brought forth, as it was Haggerty's proximity to the alleged origin of the explosion that induced the state to choose for trial from 19 indictment the one for the murder of Haggerty. Testimony of experts on explosives will be produced thereupon to indicate that dynamite wrecked the building. Though the state has several hundred witnesses, many of them, will be dis posed of in a few minutes. The defense thus far haa not Indi cated what its manner of refutation will be. The attorneys assert that they have several methods at their disposal and though they will Indulge In ex haustive cross-examination, the main line of defense will not become visible until after the state has rested it case. Combatting of the dynamite theory by expert testimony, as well aa by witnesses who will allege that they smelled gas In the vicinity of the build ing, already has been admitted by the defense as a central feature in its fu ture argument. Accident la Defense Theory. Examination of talesmen thus far likewise has revealed that the defense will Insist on the theory that the Times was destroyed by accident, and that no felony, therefore, was committed. Calculations from the present prog ress of the trial place the time for be ginning the taking of evidence at the middle of December. Though only four more Jurors are needed to fill the box, the time for tak ing evidence may be postponed some what by the choosing of one or two alternate Jurors to replace any 'who may become physically unable to serve In the course of the trial. Unless J. II. Cook Is excused before long, it Is said, an alternate will be necessary for him, as his physician Is reported to have said that he could not stand the confinement. The examination of Talesman Calvin Collins will be continued tomorrow. Besides the eight sworn Jurors, one talesman has been passed for cause and with only seven peremptory chal lenges now available to the defense and Ave remaining to the state, it Is be lieved that the completion of the panel la not far off.
