INDIANAPOLIS. Ind . Dec 0 -Vehement
denial of knowledgn of
any dynnmlto conspiracy within the
ranks of their organisation was
voiced from tho witness stand hero
today by Defendants Charles W.
Waehmelster and Prank J. Murphy
of Detroit, officials of the Interna
tional Association of Drldgo and
Structural Ironworkers, nt the trial
of the union men charged with Il
legally transporting dynamite. Mur
phy also denied that hu had heard
of a reported' "kitty" to flnaneo Do
trolt dyuainlttngs.
Attorneys for tho Pacific Coast
defendants do not bellevo the gov
ernment has produced damaging
testimony against Olar Tvellmob and
say the San Francisco leader may
not take the Maud. K. A. Clancy,
also of San Francisco, It was said,
would testify In his own behalf, but
not until tho testimony of most of
the eastern defendants had been completed.
That the boyn near the lop of the
ipugllstle bidder about Han Francisco
are afraid of takln on llud Ander
son of Medford Is the word contained
In a tetter rocetved by Court llnll
from 11. O. lAiwry, snorting editor of
ttm Oakland Tribune. Mr. l.owry
says:
"Hegardlng Iliul Anderson I want
to advise you that Mr. Moffltt (an
Oakland promoter) lias him In mind
but ho finds difficulty In finding n
suitable boy for him ns those here
abouts tinprois tin that they are
afraid to tackle the Medford lad.
"lloth McFarland and Kdwnrds
were offered a bout with him and
declined and even Frauklo llurus
gives one this Impression also.
"Nevertheless I nhnll continue to
see what can ho done for him. In
tho meanwhile I nsk vou to send me
a photo or two of Anderson."

10 CELEBRATE ELECTION
NEW YORK, Dec. 9. Mrs. Grovcr
Cleveland, Mrs. W. J. Ilryan and
Mrs. Adla K. Stevenson aro among
women of promlncnco who have ac
cepted Invitations to a "victory" re
ception to be given here December 21
by tho Women's Democratic club to
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wlfo of tho
president-elect, and tho MlWs Wil
son. Mrs. Champ Clark, Mrs. Os
car Underwood, Mrs. William Sul
zor, Mrs. Judson Harmon and Mrs.
William J. Gaynor also are expected
to accept Invitations.
A gun-sight that will revolution
ize the practice of driving n bullet to
tho exact center of the point aimed
at, is the invention of Henry Hacdel,
of Gold Hill, who has jut received
notification of the granting of his
patent by the department nt Wash
ington, Miys the News. The sieht is
entirely new in principle, nnd will
take from the main feature of its
const ntctVon the name, "T sight."
Cross-bar lights in n gloho hotting
form ti perfect T, segmenting tho
lower halt' of the circle into an exact
two-quarters. That is oil there i
to it. nnd the marvel is that no one
but itonry ever tumbled to its sim
plicity nnd practical advantage.
Utilized both us a front nnd rear
sight, the instant the two Ts come
into close alignment u crfcct sight
is obtained, not the tenth part of a
hnir from exactness. The tendency
to slant iv rifle, with the ordinary
open lighting, either to right or left
become miito.il)le without knowl
edge of the murk-man. Working
models of the new xijjht arc now be
ing manufactured for .Mr. Itnedel,
who has already received several
flattering offers for the patent.

trict here.

dimity make it ten ton run of ore at
the ttrnden mill. During its long Idle
