GERMAN EDITOR SOUNDS
AND FLAYS
Berlin, Dec. 1. That war between
Germany nnd England Is a real dan
ger and that German diplomatic
moves of late years were a series of
colossal blunders, particularly in the
Moroccan controversy, was stated to
day by Maxmlllan Harben, editor of
tho Zunkunft, one of the greatest liv
ing forces In German political life.
He said the Moroccan affairs In
tensified the Anglo-German bitter
ness, because tho Germans believe
England prevented a successful nego
tiation by Germany with France.
The editor said ho favored a sane
understanding with England, the first
step being an agreement on the naval
question.

St. Petersburg Dec. 1. (Bul
letin ) Russia today ordered a
detachment of troops, at Resht
150 miles from Teheran, to ad
vance on Teheran, where it is
reported they are to take con
trol of the city, unless the
Russian demands, including the
expulsion of Shuster, be satis
fied. Teheran, Persia, Dec. 1. A bitter
anti-Russian demonstration today
followed the action of parliament, in
rtfu-ing to agre to Russia's ultima
tum, demanding the expulsion of
Morgan Shustei, the American, who
is treasurer general of Persia.
It Is believed this Is a forerunner of
grave eventualities.
There have been repeated attempts
to assassinate Shuster, whose sup
porters declare that Russia has plac
ed a price on his head.
Shuster today admitted that several
attempts hal failed owing to the
alertness ot his guards.
Opposition to his scheme for the
reorganization of Persia by both Eng
lish and Russian agents caused Shus
ter to present his resignation, accord
ing to a report. This was however,
officially denied.
It followed the refusal of the Per
sian parliament to expel him from
the country, as England and Russia
demanded.
Ha believes England and Russia
are deterined to partition Persia and
he could not reorganize the monetary
system effectively against such op
position. 0-W. R. & N. TRAINS

before court convened this afternoon

Clarence Darrow chief counsel for the
defense, were closeted with Judge
Bordwell. - , -
Then they emerged and Fredericks
read the indictment, charging James
B. McNamara with murder, in con
nection with the Times exp'osion. He
asked McNamara if he withdrew his
plea of "not guilty" and James said
he did. then sank back in his chair.
At two in the afternoon. Fredericks
read the indictment charging John
J. McNamara with placing dynamite
under the Llewellyn Iron WTorks and
asked him if he withdrew his plea.
"Ye, sir, I do," said the noted la
bor leader. Both brothers will be
sentenced on the morning of Decem
ber 5 at 10 o'clock.
Confessing, James said:
"I put the dynamite under the
Times building.
"It must have hit a gas main be

me more than anyone else.
"I hadn't expected such great dam
age." James can be hanged or imprison
ed for life. John can be given a year 11
or life imprisonment, as the court de
cides. The sudden termination of the trial
followed a day filled with rumors of
the wildest order.
Darrow said:
"For six months I've carried a ter
rific burden.
"We have sought every loophole,
but recently I discovered all the evi
dence authorities had and I bad fur
ther facts which made it more hope
less. "The fWc had a sure case. Jim
will tell all about it later."
Jim and John had previously de
cided to plead guilty when they
should learn that the case was sure.
Attorney Scott of the defense, ad
mitted that the defense's attorneys
