LOS ANGELES, Dec. 6. George
Alexander has been re-elected mayor
of Los Angeles, being swept into of
fice by a landslide which gave him a
plurality exceeding 35,000 and car
ried with him every other person on
the ticket endorsed by the business
interests of the city, the damaged
machines of both big.polltlcal parties
and the so-called Good Government
forces.
The soclallBt-labor union leaders
admit their utter rout and positively
insist that the real reason was the
eleventh hour developments of the
McNamara murder trials. The fact
that Job Harrlman was one of the
labor men's attorneys cost him the
votes of thousands of union men and
women here, who blamed him for
not publicly repudiating the McNa-
maras as soon as he found they were
guilty.
, The vote was the largest In the
history of the city. It was the first
time in the history of California that
the women were permitted to vote at
a municipal election lu a large city,
and they voted almost solidly against
Harrlman and his associates.
The Alexander forces vIll have
complete control of the city for the
next two years, having elected every
councilman and member of the edu
cational board.
Prohibition was snowed under, the
suggestion that the city go dry hav
ing been overwhelmingly defeated by
a ratio of about 4 to 1.
Despite the fact that the McNa
mara brothers are In cells in the
county, Jail waiting transfer to San
Quentln for their admitted crimes of
dynamiting, Los Angeles is more in
terested, and even more excited, than
at any time since the Times was
blown up.
The sweeping victory scored at
yesterday's election by the united
forces of the old line political par
ties, the liquor Interests, and the so
called good government Interests
over the united socialist-labor union
candidates has accentuated the feel
ing that the result was a bargain,
pure and simple, the McNamaraB be-
DEPOSE CHINESE RULER.
PEKING, Deo. 6. -Prince Chun
was today deposed as regent to the
Manchu throne, upon the 0. let's of
Yuan Shi Kal.
Chun probably will b) fctinlshed.
The rebels hailed his removal as re
gent with warm approval. .
Shi Kai, a Manchu, and Hu Shi
Chang, a prominent diplomat, were
named as guardians nf the brly em
peror. SHANGHAI, Dec. 6. -The edict de
posing Prince Chun as regent was
signed by the empress dowager and
grants the prince regent the right to
abdicate. It allowtt the premier and
his cabinet to take up the appoint
ment of a substitute' regent later.
The infant emperor will be reared
as a Chinese by Hsu Shi Chang and
Shi Sal. The prince regent will re
tain his title and an annuity of 50,
000 taels.
' The rebel leaders in Shanghai de
clare that this does not satisfy them.

PACKERS TO TRIAL
CHICAGO, Deo. 6. Brought to
book after a hunt of more than seven
years, J. Ocden Armour and nln
other Chicago packer were placed
on trial hre todav before United
States District 'Judge Carpenter oa
charges which may land them behind
the bars of a federal prison for crim
inal conspiracy and violation of the
Sherman anti-trust law.
Judge Carpenter'! court was jam-
med to the doors when the rich
packers, who had bo long evaded the
law, were at last in their last corner.
They pleaded not guilty.
Before the court opened It wat re
ported that the packers would plead
nolo contendere, and throw them
selves upon the mercy of the court.
This proved unfounded, and when
Judge Carpenter took the bench th
final battle of the long-drawn-out
struggle began.
When the formality of the pleat
of "not guilty" by .the packera wan
finished, examination of the venire
men In the case began at once.
Each side has SO peremptory chal
lenges In the selection of the Jury.
At noon eleven Jurore were in the
box, subject to peremptory challenge
by the government's attorneys.
