It is indicated that the defense yrill
make another attempt to procure an-
oiner change of venue, and further
delay the case. For some days past
rumor has been prevalent that Van
derveer. as attorney for the defense,
"would ask the state supreme court
for a writ of prohibition, on the
rrounds of prejudice, but the I. W. W.
counsel has denied this.
lhat he would attempt to procure
m. chance of venue when court con
venes Monday morningr was threat
ened by vanderveer thi3 morninir.
when he informed W. H. Abel of the
defense that he would take such ac
tion and that he already had prepared
the affidavits of prejudice on which
he will base his plea. Opinion is prev
alent, however, that the defense Is
fully prepared to meet this move and
that upon its counter representations
the charge of prejudice will be refuted
And the trial proceed as set.
Jury Difficulty Belittled.
While the defense also insists that
treat difficulty will be experienced
in drawing a jury, and that more than
a week will be consumed in this alone,
Ihe prosecution is confident that this
la an overestimates and that the jury,
while difficult of selection, will be
Completed within a few days.
Of a previous venire, 80 names re
main, while a special venire of 300,
all from Grays Harbor county, rora
pletes a long- list from which the
Jury may be selected.
Keenly interested in the case, which
found its origin in the tragic death
of four comrades, the American Le
jrion will bo stronply represented
among Montesano's transient visitovs.
The legrionraires have gathered quiet
ly, are holding- tholr own counsel,
and are plainly resolved that order
shall prevail and that no aut of theirs
shall lend the torch to any outbreak.
I'rediction is common that the trial
of the accused I. W. W. will be un
marred by any untoward incident.
Lesion Opens Headquarters.
Headquarters for the Legionnaires
have been opened in the city hall,
whore Lieutenant R. F. Vangilder,
wiih J. C. Hempe as aide, both of Cen
tralia, will be in charge. W. C;
Schacht. also of the Centralia post, is
secretary of the transferred quarters
and is in charge of the commissary
and is establishing headquarters in
Montesano. The legion has also un
dertaken the burden of seeing that
the general public, as well as its own
members, receive regular rations.
In the fire department quarters of
the city hall a huge eating house
will be opened Monday, under the di
rection ot me legion, tor local res
taurant facilities are admittedly in
capable of caring for the influx of
transient guests. Plain meals will be
served at a minimum price to all
the hastily conjured caravansary.
The case of the 11 accused will
be heard concurrently, motion of the
defense for separate trial having
oeen lost. It is understood that in
the instance of Loren Roberts, whose
signed confession was made shortly
after his capture, the defense will
Plead insanity. The general plea of
the defense for all of the accused will
be that they fired in self-defense.
arter the I. w. w. hall had been at
tacked, during the armistice parade
la Leutralia.
Assault Held Planned.
That the I. W. W. of Centralia, in
eluding the defendants, planned the
assault upon the armistice day pa
rade three weeks before the parade
was held and that the legionnaires
did not rush the hall until the ranks
had been fired upon will be the con
tontion of the prosecution, which
holds the signed confession of Rob
erts, and is said to have other equa
Important evidence to submit in sup
port of such contention.
The so-called Centralia case, which
aroused echoes of protest throughout
America, came to being in Centralia,
"Wash., on armistice day, November
11. when a volley of bullets fired
from ambush into the ranks of over
seas veterans on gala parade killed
four marchers.
These were Warren O. Grimm
former lieutenant, practicng attorney
of Centralia; Krnest Dale Hubbard,
merchant; Arthur McElfresh, drug
gist, and Ben Casagranda, bootblack
all men who followed the flag In the
world War. Hubbard fell in the chase
which ensued, when he was closing in
for the capture of Wesley Everetts,
one of the fleeing radicals. And
Kvcretta in return expiated his deed
by dangling from a little country
bridge near Centralia, the victim of
lynch law.
Attorney Held Arrrssory.
Of the 11 defendants, all are accused
tit direct participation in the Centralia
murders, with the exception of Elmer
Fmlth, attorney who is equally
charged as an accessory before the
fact. The Information charging the
Centralia murders covered -.13 men.
Two are yet at large. These are Ole
Hansen, companion of Bert Bland at
the rifle ambush on Seminary hill, and
John Hoe Iiavts. Hunted by posses
for days following the shooting, they
have been successful in eluding capture.
Throughout the course of the trial
the courthouse is to be closely guard
ed by a force of special deputies, ap
pointed by Sheriff Jeff Kartell, so
that no outbreak may arise from the
sympathizers of either faction in the
Lssue at stake.
I'ending the opening of court the
anonymous penmen of the radical ele
ment are busied at the writing ot
threatening letters to those identified
with the prosecution or with the ful
fillment of the law. Unsigned, scrib
bled on pages of radical propaganda
and couched in terms that hint
death if the demands for release are
not met, the letters are tossed aside
contemptuously.
"I don't look for any trouble," said
Sheriff Jeff Bartell. "at the same time
we are ready for it."

Fund of $10,000,000 Voted Oat
Despite l-.vitlent ct;cssity of
Kelcaing 13,900 Lmplojes.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24. Bv a mar
gin of one vote the house appropria
tions committee today refused to in
clude In the deficiency appropria
tion bill a fund of $10,000,000, asked
by the navy department for repairs
to ships. Naval officials had in
formed the committee that unless the
money was made available necessary
repairs to many capital ships and de
stroyers could not be made and that
13,900 navv-vard emploves would
have to be discharged next month.
To increase the number of guards
at government bonded warehouses
where whisky is stored, the commit
tee increased $1,000,000 or half the
amount asked bv the internal revenue
bureau. A like sum was included for
immigration service use in deporting
radicals and regulating immigration.
Besides the direct appropriations,
the committee used expenditure of
$11,200,000 of unexpended war depart
ment balances to be used in building
storage houses and for renewing the
Washington - Alaska military cable
system.
As approved bv the committee, the
deficiency bill, the second of the cur
rent fiscal year, carries $s8,tM,000, of
which $71,700,000 was for expenditure
Si-owing out of the war. The measure
includes an appropriation of $12,000,
000 for the vocational rehabilitation
work of disabled service men and
$4,'f00,000 for the care of war-risk in
surance patients.

OHEUON1AX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Jan. 24. Representative Sum
mers of Washington appeared before
the house committee on rules today
to urge a rule for the immediate con
sideration of anti-sedition legislation.
To the statement of the chairman
of the committee that many news
papers had protested against the Gra
ham bill because of the power givfrn
the poFtmaster-general over the
press, Mr. Summers said he believed
that these protests were due to mis
understanding. He asserted that un
der the terms of the Graham bill,
as under the Sterling bill passed by
the senate, no newspaper is subject to
discipline or suppression unless it ad
vocates the overthrow or the government.
