So far the exact cause of the strike is unstated. Los Angeles, Dec. 1. Clarence Dar row, chief counsel for the McN'aiu aras, and Lecompte Davis, his chief assistant, have been closeted with the District Attorney Fredericks for more than an hour. The reason for the meeting was not made public by either Darra-w or Da vis aa they emerged and all that Dis trict Attorney Fredericks would say was that the entire facts would prob ably become known in open court. As a result of this visit, the most sensational rumors affecting the case continued to be circulated but in no instance was it possible to confirm any of them. McXainara in Court. Los Angeles, Dec. 1 At .?:0o Darrow and Davis were inearnest con rersatlon in the ante-room of the court. J. B. McNamara was convers ing with Joseph Scott, one of his at torneys. District Attorney Freder icks, with his entire staff ot chief deputies, were seated, smiling broad ly, at the state's table. Every seat in the room was occu pied, and there was an air of sup pressed excitement that eclipsed any. thing previously seen in the court room. John J. McNamara appeared In the courtroom at 2:11. No reason for his appearance Is yet known. MeXaniara Confesses. John J. McNamara has pleaded guilty to placing dynamite tinder Llewellyn Iron Works. The J. B. McNamara wa? asked whether he wanted to plead guilty to murder as charged in the indictment. "I do, your honor," he said. McNamara then sank bac"c into his chair, while the entire courtroom be came as silent as a tomb. FOLEY IS IN LIMELIGHT AS COMING PUG ICNITED PRESS IJSASKP WIHIl San Francisco, Dec. 1. Fifteen hundred dollars and the acquisition of notable pugilistic fame, which Willie Ritchie, the local lightweight, received for his excellent showing against Freddie Welsh in I.os Angeles would never have been his but for Harry Foley, the referee. Wednesday morning Foley suggest ed that Ritchie wire promoter Tom Jlc-Carey in Los Angeles his wllling-no.-s to substitute for Champion Wol gu.H in the Welch battle. So incred ulous was Ritchie of the possibility of being given the chance that he re fused to spend his change for a tele gram. Folev sent a telegram him- f-eif, and late that evening cam- the reply to Ritchie: "Match on. Take I-ark tonight. Guarantee you $l5uu." It is safe to predict that $1500 will not be the last snug sum to roll into Ritchie's pocket as a direct result of Foley's inspiration. o "I will sentence Jairnies B. .McNam ara on his plea of gulltity to lrnnlerat 10 o'clock on Tuesday,'', December 5," said Judge-Bordweil, Then District Attorn ney Fredericks i arose with a big l)unc.c?h of pipers in his hand. "John J. McNamara, , stand u,:," he said. "You have prorwlously pleaded not guilty to a chargge of slicing dynamite under He n 1,'ewellyn iron Works. Do you want z to withdraw that plea?" 'I do sir," said lhrw noted labor leader. Now, do you want 0 to plead guilty to that indictment," "T do, sir." McNamara sank tac'sk la his seat and Judge Bordweil auannounced that he would sentence kiiKiii at the same time as his brother. Hall of Records Loses Angeles Dec. 1. James B.

SPARKS AT THE ASTLUJI WAS TEYIXO TO POISON THEM, IXSASE PA TIENTS ATTEMPT TO KILL HIM. Suffering under the delusion that enemies were seeking their lives and wished to poison them, Max Pawlack and George EeBrowskl, both Insane patients from Portland at the State Insane Asylum, plotted to take the life of S. A. Parks, one of the best- known attendants at the institution, and Pawlack attacked Parks y ester day afternoon in ward No. 6, Btab blng him six times about the head one of the wounds being near the temple- A wound on the top of the head nearly penetrated the bone and gouged out a portion of the skull While Parks Is In a serious condi tion, It is believed his life will be saved. Pawlack used an Improvised punch or awl, which he had evidently picked up when on the outside with other patients for an airing. As near as can be determined from stories of other patients in (he ward, Parks was unconscious for sonic time after the attack, whn he stag gered to his feet and was found grop ing along the hall as Superintendent Steiner arrived. The superintendent started to assist Parks, but blood was streaming down his face, blinding him and he started to fight back at Pteiner, thinking another attack was being made. Patients sided with the ntt.-nil.int and nrobahly saved bis 'lifp. I A few days ai;o Parks discovered a sharpened spoon In the clothes of I)". 4 Jumped the Ji. Teheran, Persia, Dec. 1.

It Is not yet stated whether Shuster will quit the country or whether h will remain In an advisory capacity to the Persian cabinet.

First of all, It Is very unique to find a train carrying the executive heads of great states. But even more unique are the methods that James M. Brady and Reilly Atkinson, the managers of the train, have taken to insure the good care of these gentlemen. Two com partment observation cars, one5 stand ard sleeper and a dining car have been put on the tra'n for their com fort. On tho train Is a barber to shave them and trim their hair; a tailor to press their clothes; stenographers with plenty of embossed stationery to write their letters nnil picked porters to attend to all their wants. The dining car will have a most polite con ductor, three expert cooks and eight careful waiters. The food served will be tho most excellent ever tasted. The j nrarngem'tits of the baggage car will I be the most unique of all. It Is " j arranged that any one of t lie eight j governors may walk into it any mo ment of the day or night, find his trunks waitinx for him and placed so that lie niHy open them and tahej out what he wishes. j The baggage of ench governor will j be placed lii jt llnle compartment all j its own, and found at a moment's no tice.

Following re ports of a spilt In the tariff board over the wool report, President Taft today Biinnnoned Henry Emery and Alvln Sanders, members of the board, to talk over the situation with him, postponing a proposed meeting of the cabinet for the conference. ' It Is believed that the president will ask tho two members for such Information on the subject as they may have on hand, and with-this for a basis, will start a apodal wool message to congress without await ing the formal report of the tariff board. ' It is considered significant that John B. Reynolds, one of the most active members of the tariff board, is absent It is believed that Reynolds favors a protective tariff, while Eme ry and Sanders urge tariff for reve nue only, along the lines of the Dem ocratic bills which President Taft ve toed. The president is expected to pro pose a big reduction In the wool tar iff in an endeavor to strike a balance between the protectionists and the Democrats. The cabinet will discuss the matter this afternoon. President Taft expects to submit the report of the tariff board, which will be completed within a week, with his message. The determination pt the Democra tic leaders in the house to Ignore th report was made apparent today, when Congressman Underwood an nounced his Intention ot calling the ways and means committee together Immediately after congress meets., "We will give the president a rea sonable time in which, to submit the report of the tariff board," said Un derwood, "and If It is not thon In, we will proceed with an investigation." Emery and Banders, as they were leaving the white house following their conference with the president. denied that there were any "serious differences" among the members ot the tariff board. It was announced that President Taft will send the report of the tariff board with a message to congress on December 11. Presldont Taft today denied that any split exists In the tariff board. He said Its report consists of facts and figures and that there are no reasons about what differences could exist.
