EXPLOSION LAID TO
D ARROW'S TEACHING
Assistant Prosecutor Brands
Attorney as "Corrupter
of Men."
BRILLIANT MIND IS LAUDED
In Opening Arguments to Jurors In
Bribery Case Ford Places Re
sponsibility of Times' Blowup
to McXamara'a Counsel.
LOS ANGELES, Cal.. Aug. 12. Alter
nately denouncing Clarence S. Darrow
as a corrupter of men and lauding his
brilliancy of mind. Assistant District
Attorney W. Joseph Ford, made the
opening argument today In the Dar
row bribery trial. The denunciation ex
tended to others connected with the
defense of the Chicago lawyer, to Job
Harrtman, who Ford maintained, was
an accomplice In the alleged bribery of
Jurors; to Lincoln Steffens. designated
as a "Christian Aanarchlst." and to
other defense witnesses of lesser Im
portance. "Time after time. Ford assailed Dar
row personally, either because of his
philosophic teachings or his conduct of
the McNamara defense.
Dynamiting Laid to Darrow.
The climax of the prosecutor's per
sonal denunciation was reached In his
charge that Darrow by Ms teachings
was responsible for the blowing up of
the Times' building and Its attendant
fatalities. J. B. McNamara. he said,
had been deluded by the doctrines ad
vocated by Darrow. At another time
the speaker referred to the defendant
as "the brilliant gladiator of the
courts."
The theory of the defense that
Franklin and John R. Harrington were
actors In a "frame up" to ruin Dar
row was ridiculed by the prosecutor.
"If there was any "frame up" In this
rase." he said, "it was between the
District Attorney and Lockwood to trap
Franklin, and they did It"
SteffeBs la Draooawd.
The prosecuting attorney asserted
that the testimony of Lincoln Steffens
as to the so-called "peace negotiations,"
was ridiculous and not to be believed.
Steffens waa denounced aa "a man who
believed a man should not be punished
for mere murder he says the man
should have gone free because It was
a social crime."
Ford closed with a plea for convic
tion, telling the Jurors that It was the
only verdict compatible with the evi
dence in the case. He concluded at
4:30 o'clock, after talking for 4 1-2
hours. Court adjourned until 9 o'clock
tomorrow morning, when Attorney
Horace H. Appel will make the opening
argument for the defense.
RULING ON ALIENS SCORED

zen's Children Protested.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 12. Several
vigorous protests have been received
hv Secretary Nagel, of the Department
of Commerce and Labor, againat his
recent Interpretation of the naturali
sation and Immigration laws to the ef
fect that the naturalization of an alien

St at s or abroad.
The protestants contend that the de
cision lowers the bars to all the barred
classes of immigrants, as the naturali
zation of a father of a family now per
mits him to bring Into the United
States. Immune from the tests of im
migration laws, his minor children,
whether they are idiots. Imbeciles or
other undesirables.
The Secretary is preparing an opin
ion to Justify bis position, both from
a legal and a humanitarian viewpoint.

TAFT CUP RAIDED
Glacier National Park Is Scene
of "Cubnapping."
SHE BEAR GETS BABY BACK
Rescue Is Effected in Dead of Xlght
While Most of Members of the
Party Are Asleep Robert Taft
Relieved of Embarrassment,
GLACIER NATIONAL PARK. Mont.,
Aug. 12. (Special.) An old mother
bruin stole into the Taft party's camp
on the side of Red Eagle Mountain
last night and thereby hangs a tale of
how President Taft is to be spared the
political embarrasment of having to
receive a "Teddy" bear cub Into his
household, when bis son, Robert, re
turns from his outing in Glacier Na
tional Park.
The cub was presented to young Taft
by Big Top', Blackfoot Indian chief. On
the arrival of the Taft expedition on
August 6 "Scotty" the guide, got a
dog collar for the cub and the mascot
was tied In camp as a pet. The young
animal cried nearly all last night until
rescued and adopted by the old she
bear, which bravely descended the
mountain side, gnawed the rope In two
parts and defiantly marched back up
the mountain growling its feelings at
two of the guides who started to fol
low the bold "cub napper."
Robert Taft emerged from his tent
and stood watching the retreating
mother bear carrying the cub tightly
clasped In her fore paws.
It was a touching picture, in the
light of the moon, streaming down
over the peak S00O feet above. "Don't
shoot," he shouted to the guide. "It
must be her cub. besides there Isn't
room for a 'Teddy' bear in the house
now anyway. Let It go."
So it went back to nature and the
Taft boy regretfully bade good-bye to
his last "Teddy" bear pet. The Taft
party will remain In Glacier National
Park three weeks.

sular agent of his country in this city,
was employed at one time on the New
York Herald. He was making this trip
to' see Zapata as a representative of
El Impartial. The other correspondent
waa Ignacao Harras, of El Pals.
The ill-fated train left yesterday
morning from Mexico City. Most of
the passengers belonged to the farmer
and lower classes. The soldiers who
had been detailed to act as a guard
were from the Eleventh Battalion,
commanded by Lieutenant Reyonaza.
' Attack Made In Canyon.
By costly experience the troops had
learned to be on the alert, but from
the time they left the national capital
not the least hostility bad been en
countered until the train ran into the
canyon. Here a rail had been loosened,
and as the locomotive left the track a
volley of rifle shots was poured into
the train with deadly effect. It was
centered on the coach in which most
of the soldiers were riding, but soon
became general, the rebels apparently
not caring whether they distinguished
passengers from federal soldiers.
Lieutenant Reyonaza's orders to re
ply to the fire were carried out by the
entrapped soldiers, notwithstanding the
advantage which the hillsides gave the
rebels. Pluckily every man of the
guard fought until silenced. A few
passengers, Beizing guns from the fal
len soldiers, assisted in the defense,
but the unequal battle only lasted a
short time.
Pnnltlve Force DlMpatcned.
Acting upon information brought to

This was not under way until late to
day. Another train was sent from the
north toward the scene of the massacre
to recover the bodies and give aid to
any wounded who might be found.
