FOUR MEN ARE
INDICTED FOR
UNNEUTRALACT
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 21.—A fed-1
eral grand jury indictment has been
returned against four men charging
them with conspiracy to violate the
neutrality laws of the United States.
The indictment set forth, according to
the department of justice officials,
that the men conspired to ship “ten
machine guns to Mexico to be used by
Col. Cantus, military governor of
Lower California.”
In addition to Fred Dato, brother
in-law of Cantus, C. J. O’Reilly, man
ager of William H. Hoegee company,
and Julian Trens, a fourth man, was
named in the indictment, but this
name was not divulged. A bench war
rant was issued for his arrest.
Dato’s bond was set at $5,000, Trens
at $3,000 and O’Reilly’s at $2,000.
O’Reilly is the manager of the
William H. Hoegee company, a Los
Angeles sporting house firm, from
whom, it was alleged, the machine
guns were purchased for Dato.
•According to agents of the depart
ment of justice, it was the intention
of the men charged with conspiracy
to place the guns aboard a fast boat
at Long Beach ’and transport them to
some port in Lower California.
Joseph E. Culver, a shipping brok
er at Long Beach, California, the
fourth named in the nidictment, was
arrested by federal authorities. He
is alleged to have arranged for the
shipment of the machine guns from
Long Beach to Lower California.
To Whom It May Concern. All
persons are hereby notified that from
and after the 26th day of November,
1916, the undersigned will not be re
sponsible for any debts incurred eith
er by J. A. Spenard, personally, or by
said Spenard on account of the Re
sort at what is called Lake Spenard,
nor for any supplies or material or
labor furnished for or used in, on or

connected therewith at said Lake
Spenard Resort. 84
HENRY MARTIN
a short time the United States army
will have what is likely to be the most
deadly hand grenade of any of the
armies of the world for use in trench
warfare and in close fighting. It is a
wonderful invention of warfare, in
vented by an American army officer
on duty at the war department. It is
of tfie shape and size of the ordinary
bassball of the “big leagues.” It is
thrown exactly as a baseball is thrown,
and therefore can be “placed with
deadly accuracy.”
ll»e most marvelous feature about
the new grenade is that it can be
handled with complete safety when
not intended to deal destruction to
the enemy. Unlike the hand gren
ades now in use in Europe, it will
not explode, no mater how far it j
drops to the ground nor where it |
strikes, under ordinary conditions. I
In order to explode the grenade it'
is thrown from the hand, just like a|
baseball with a curve, much as the'
famous “spit” ball is thrown. Instead j
of thp bare hnads, the thrower uses a,
small instrument which he holds in his!
hand and retains there after the ball is
thrown. The slight twist given the
ball as it leaves the hand causes this
little instrument to set the plunger in
the grenade so that it explodes when
it reaches its destination. If it is
thrown in the ordinary way it will not
explode.
