charged with completely In the alleg-
ed dynamiting Of the Los Angeles
Times building. and Of Charles A.
Meyer. William D. Haywood and Geo.
Pettibone, on the charge Of murder
INF former Governor Stuenenberg at
Caldwell, Idaho. some years ago. was
pointed out at the headquarters Of
the Western Federation Of Miners to-
day.
In both cases the evidence was
worked up" by private detectives,
according to the Western Federation
officials. the Meyer case by Pinkerton
agenes and the McNamara case by
Burns men. In both cases there was
an alleged accomplish who turned
States evidence; in the Steunenberg
case Harry Orchard, in the McNama-
ra case, according to the detectives
Ortiea Il. McManigal. In both cases
the alleged confessions are equally
voluminouA, covering pages OF type
written matter" and acknowledging
wholesale murder in many parts Of
the United Statea.
AS in the case OF the three officials
OF the Western Federation. the arrest
OF MCNAMARA in Indianapolis WAS
made after the courts were closed.
The papers were all prepared, were
presented to the governor OF the State
In secret and requisition approved.
Then they were held until late on
Saturday, when the courts were clos
cd. so that there could be no recourse
TO habeas corpus proceedings 70 Sc
cure the release of the accused until
monday. With Sunday. when the
courts are powerless to act, fnterven-
ing. there was plenty OF time to get
the accused beyond the borders of
their native State without the detec-
tfves being confronted with court or
ders, which would have permitted q
hearing Of the allegation against the
union officials. The Meyer ct al, case
a special train Allied with State milf
tfamen was used to get them out Of
Denver, while in the McNamara case
an automobile and bunch OF armed
detectives served the same purpose.
The Western Federation officials
pointed out that after Meyer and the
others had been arrested a lead bomb
fitted as Orchard had said his were
fitted WAS found In the Occur d'Alene
district; another turned up In San
Francisco, where he said he had
pulled" off a job dynamite was
found in George Petitioners store and
other places where Orchard was said
to have hidden II after II had been
given him by Pettibone. The discov-
cry OF the explosive was made by
Pinkerton. Western federation men
say that similarly planted" explosives
have been turned up In the presen,
case.
The officials OF tho federation also
pointed out to-day that Haywood and
Pettibone were tried in Boise and ac-
quilted, the latter without putting In
any defense. while the case against
Meyer was dropped without a trial.
