Not believing | himself timber for a saint, Enriquez, | the statement says, declined to join the group. } Met at Nun's Home | The police statement says the plot- ters met at the home of Mother Con cepcion. Senorita Maria Elena Man- | zano, now under arrest, is accused | of having accepted a mission to go | to Celaya, induce Obregon and Calles | to dance with her, and, while danc- | ing, prick them with a poisoned pin. | Mother Concepcion 13 charged with | having furnished a bottle of poison | for the purpose. | When the poison plan was abandoned, the conspirators manu- factured bombs in a house near that occupied by Mother Concepcion, Chief Rios Zertuche declares, the ex- plosives being used in bombings in the chamber of deputies and Obre- gon headquarters, in recent months. Jose Leon Toral, Obregon’s assas- sin, and Manuel Trejo, who is al- leged to have furnished Leon Toral with the pistol that he used in slay- ing the president-elect, are declared to have ben members of the “martyrs” group. Admits Poison Pin Plot | Benorita Manzane is quoted in an interview as admitting she planned to prick Calles and Obregon with a | poisoned pin. The plan failed, she | sald, because Trejo and Carlos Diez Sollano, who accompanied her to Celaya, became frightened and re- | turned to Mexico City before she could accomplish her purpose. H She said she was betrothed to| Carlos Castro Balda, one of the al- | leged conspirators, and it was her love for him which prompted her | to participate in the plot, at his in- | vitation. She said she became acquainted with Mother Concepcion five years ago and met Castro at her house. The interview proceeds: “Sollano hatched the plot and gave me the poison, a most deadly one. 1 was to conceal the poisoned | pin in the folds of my dress. A | single scratch would have been suf- | fictent to kill a person and I intend- | ed to approach Calles and Obregon | in one way or another.” May Become a Nun If Castro is executed she will be- | come a nun, resolved to do her ut- | most in behalf of mankind, she added. | Those under arrest arc: Senorita | Mazano, Margarita Rubio, Leonora Rublo, Piedad Rangel, Scnora I peranza de Cisneros, Ana Maria C neros, Margarita Pacheco, Enriquez Vidal, Castro Balda, Iduardo Zo. zalla Y. Collada, Eulogio Gonzales Arzola and Fernando Amor Y Villal | Pando. | Zozalla Y Collada, a 24 year old | engineering student, is accused of | ed by Trejo, he is alleged to have | placed bombs in the chamber of | deputies after lunching with the Nun | Josefina, sister of Mother Concep- | cion. Heard Plot Discussed Rios Zertuche's statement sa that after the bombing in the cham- er of deputies Trejo and Castro fled, keeping Mother Conception ad- vised of their movements. Gonzales | Arzola, a 27 vear old bookkeeper who studied for the priesthood, tes- tified to the police, the statement vs, that he attended meetings in Mother Concepcion's house where | plans to kill Calles and Obregon | were discused. The statement adds that Armor Y. | Villalpando, a 23 vear old engineer- ing student, was associated with the group and participated in the forma- | tion of a secret organization for the “promotion of social and political affairs.” Priest Also Involved Ana- Maria Cisneros, 23, the po- lice declare, testified that she hear the Catholic priest Joe Jimenez twic say in the presence of Toral that the Catholics should fight because they already have suffered two years of persecution and it was necessary to ‘remove” those persons who ob- structed the settlement of the re- ligious question. The police have been unable to find Jimenez. Interviewed in his cell by news- papermen, Castro assumed full re- sponsibility for the plot. He said he alone was to blame and that he was prompted by personal motiv the Catholic clergy having nothing to do with his actions, He said he planned to destroy the chamber of deputies to punish those who would not amend the con- stitution to remove undesirable re- *“Those responsible igious conflict are the legislators and that is why 1 at- tempted to kill a few,” he told the newspapermen. Castro, whose captur> led to dis- covery of the plot, confirmed his flancee's statement that had sought her assistance in the manu- facture of bombs.
