The detrrmln atlnn of Olaf A. Tveltmoe, secretary of .'the mate building trades council of San Francisco,' who arrived hvre today to "face the music" in the allPRt-d country-wide dynamiting conspiracy, without the necessity of a bench warrant, over shadowed In interest the proceeding!) gainst Bert H. Franklin, chief lnvestl- gator for the McNamara defense, who vai scheduled to appear before Justice Young today on a bribery charge. Trailing in the wake of Tveltmoe . were the same two secret service men who have watched every movement of the San Francisco labor leader since he : left for the east more than a month ago ' to attend the convention of the "American Federation of Labor In At lanta. ' Escorted to tabor Tempi. Tveltmoe was met at the station by a number of local labor leaders and es corted to the Labor Temple, with the secret service men following. The lat ter stood on guard outside while Tvelt moe consulted with local leaders. Although It had been stated that the federal grand Jury would be busy today with Chinese smuggling cases, putting over the dynamite probe until tomorrow, Tveltmoe was an early visitor to the office of United States Attorney Law ler. Lawler was also on hand. Tveltmoe refused to discuss the dyna mite cases beyond reiterating that he had never met James B. McNamara, and knew John J. McNamara slightly. He said that he met the elder Mc Namara in labor conventions. . Tveltmoe said that after he had con ferred with Clarence Darrow, chief coun sel for the McNamaras, ' he might Issue a statement later In the day. Another Is Suspected. A report around the federal building today was to the effect that a local union .man suspected of complicity with James McNamara In dynamiting the Times building was being carefully guarded without his knowledge to keep him from disappearing. This rumor could not be verified, however. Tveltmoe was closeted with Oscar Lawler for only 15 minutes and emerged from the government agent's office apparently In a happy mood. "Well, I am here," he said to the newspapermen, "and will give the fed eral grand Jury whatever Information I can. I do not think it will be of much benefit to the jury, however, as I know absolutely nothing about the doings of the McNamara brothers. Tveltmoe is quartered at the Hay- ward hotel, where he will await the call from the federal authorities. E. A. Clancy, the San Francisco la bor leader who is also to testify be fore the inquisitors.

Franklin Case Put Qver. il'nlted l'ref Loused Wlre. jt Los Angeles, Dec. 18. Owing ttf the illness of Detective Samuel L. Browne, head of the county bureau of investiga tion, proceedings against Bert H. Frank lin, former chief detective for the Mc Namara defense, charged with bribing Permanent Juror Bain, were postponed until . 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Franklin's preliminary examination on this charge had been set for today. Assistant District Attorney Ford, rep resent lug the state, asked that the case be set over because Browne, who is credited with having gathered the evi dence and worked up the case for the prosecution, was too ill with the grippe to appear. As former Governor Henry T. Gage, counsel for Franklin, did not oppose the request, the case was aet over. FREIGHT CRASHES INTO CRACK COAST TRAIN; 13 KILLED (Continued from Page One.) train telescoped with the silk train and the cars piled high Upon each other enl wreckage strewn on both sides of the track. That any one escaped Is con sidered miraculous. Digging through the wreckage the rescuers found many of the Injured pinned down by the car seats, still alive but unable to extricate themselves. Work was Immediately started to release them. The emergen cy wreck train arrived and cranes were used to take off some of the cars. This facilitated the work of reaching the victims. Two persons were found between the crushed sashes of windows in the sleep er attached to the train at Aberdeen bound for St. PauL They were killed trying to Jump. Another body was found crushed under a wedge of seats that had been toppled into the aisle. Not two feet from it a woman was found in almost the same position. When extri cated she did not bear a mark and the only injury she Buffered was from fright. She had fainted and was at first believed to be dead. . i i . TAFT ANNOUNCES HE HAS ABROGATED RUSSIAN TREATY (Continued from Page One.) government of Russia to terminate said treaty, in accordance with the terms of the treaty, is hereby adopted andl ratified." Basils Hot to Object. The senators are aseured that Rus sia will not object to the new resolu tions. Culberson of Texas uttered the most discordant note when he asserted that the action pf the president in sub mitting, the resolution only to the sen ate as the only "treaty maker" was an affront to the house. The objection made by Heyburn was to the consideration of th resolution in open session. He thought It should be considered in executive session. four cars were left on the track. The passengers, engineer and train men in the forward part of the train escaped with bruises. Fire broke out In the overturned cars and the flames were subdued by the townspeople. The corpses were brought to this city and laid out In rows. Sev eral woman passengers were among the number. Stop Hot Explained. It Is not known why the Columbian Limited train stopped shortly after passing the station here. It was be ing backed down when the silk train crashed into It. Occupants of the rear Pullmans were caught In their berths and several were killed Instantly. Oth ers died while being rushed to assist ance within the town. Several of the Injured may die, Odessa is seven miles east of Orton vllle, a Junction point on the St. Paul road. A relief train from this point arrived half an hour after the colli sion. Cars Piled Sign on Each Other. When the rescue party arrived they found the rear part of the Columbian cited that the abrogation Is due to a "misunderstanding In the Interpreta tion" of the treaty. A resolution ap proving the act of President Taft was approved by the senate foreign commit tee. It differs entirely from the resolu tion of Congressman Sulzer, but as a matter of courtesy It probably will be made a Joint resolution, and sent to the house for concurrence. TAFT'S TREATY NOTE READ BEFORE SENATE; PACT OBSOLETE JAN. 1 (United rrei Leased Win.) "Washington, Dec 18. Notifying that body of his action in notifying Russia of the abrogation of the treaty of 1832, a message from President Taft was read in the senate this afternoon. Senator Lodge then Introduced a sub stitute for the Sulzer resolution, as approved by the senate foreign commit tee, but Senator Heyburn objecting to its immediate' consideration, action on the Lodge resolution was postponed un til tomorrow. Substance of Resolution. The resolution says in part: "Whereas, on the 17th day of Decem ber, ,1911, President Taft caused to be delivered to the Imperial Russian gov ernment by the American ambassador to St. Petersburg an official notification on behalf of the government of the United States announcing the Intention to terminate the operation of this treaty upon the expiration of the year com mencing on January 1, 1912; and, "Whereas, the treaty is no longer re sponsive in various respects to the present principles and commercial needs of the two countries; and "Whereas, the construction placed thereon by the contracting parties dif fers upon matters of fundamental Im portance and interest to each; there fore, be it "Resolved, by the senate and' the house of representatives that the no tice thus given by the president to the CONFERENCE DOES NOT BRIGHTEN THE OUTLOOK IN CHINA (Continued from Page One.) been sent to the commanders in chief of both rebel ' and Imperialistic forces. but reports of scattering engagements arriving here are delaying the move toward peace.

Old birds have found out, and husks don't go with them, any more. You can't fool a wise man twice. The wisest of them are de ceived once, but once only. Old birds and wise men-wise women, too-learn their lessons from the best teacherExperience. The tuition rates are high, but the course is worth the price. It took Marshall Field, the great merchant prince, twenty years of experience as a clerk, before he knew how to be a great merchant. It took Moses forty yeap-s of sheep herding before he knew how to do his great life work. Just think how long it took the Columbia river to wear its wide thoroughfare through the Cascade mountains. A good tree is known by its good fruit; arTevil tree is known by its evil fruit. Every tree furnishes its own test. A good hen lays 200 eggs or more in a year big eggs eggs in the winter time. Don't kill that hen. And don't feed heron chaff. The best men, the best hens, the best trees, the best clothing, the best food all supply their own irrefutable proofs of quality. What is the proof? The proof of a tree is its fruit; the proof of a hen is her eggs; the proof of a man is his deeds; the proof of cloth is its wear; the proof of a pudding or anything edible is the eating. And what do we eat most more than any other sort of food? Bread, of course. What kind of bread? The kind that is handed to us, usually. We are careless. We take what is given us, and let it go at that. There is as much difference between breads as there is between men as between scrub hens and hens of a laying strain as between a crabapple tree and a Spitzenburg as between Chaff and Wheat. Some breads are made of Chaff. Be an Old Bird. Be a Wise Man. Don t get caught. Some bread is unsanitary and unfit to eat. No man should put it in his mouth much less give it to his family. There is bread which is clean, pure and wholesome. It took years of Experience to learn how to make it. It took. Honesty to keep on making it. It took Patience to withstand untruthful assertions made by the ignorant. It took Courage .to meet-and surmount innumerable obstacles on the road to Success. Why doesn't everybody eat that bread? They don't know about it, or they are careless in ordering. Care less of their own health, mind you. Everybody's business is nobody's business. But it is your business to know about bread, - N 1 here are ways or finding out there are tests. v There is plenty of proof. . . , ' ' Facts prove. Investigation convinces. There is the test of the senses; smell it; taste it The proof of bread is thb eating. . There is still another way-r look on the bottom crust. : If the word ''ROYAL" is imprinted there, you are safe, f ; : It is the best bread! - - f : , v 1
