McNamara, charged with hay ing instigated the blowing up of the Los Angeles Times building, could not have had knowledge of certain "dyna- mitings'' with which he has been pub licly charged by Detective William J. Burns, were made here today by Gil- bert B. Perkins. head of the Perkins Detective Agency.
 Perkins, with his superintendent, Charles Franklin, has been on trial here for a week, charged with send ing "blackhand' letters to Charles H. Strong, local millionaire. Perkins has alleged that these charges were part of plant by the Burns agency be- cause he had been Successful in cases where Burns failed.''
 Perkins declared here today that he had been engaged to determine wheth- CT McNamara had any knowledge of the blowing up of the Caldwen and Drake building, in Columbia, Indiana; the courthouse in Omaha, and Times building, in Los Angeles. Experienc- ed operatives worked on the matter, he asserted, and reported that there was no evidence whatever in any way connecting McNamara with the case
 
 dence to prove what my operatives as-, serted,'' said Perkins, twas locked up in my office in Indianapolis, the day that 1t was. raided. I had received 1t only the day before and the Burns men, who had been shadowing my men, knew just where this evidence was. I was hustled right out of my office and taken to the Federal court where I was held for some time. When I returned to my office it was to find that my desk had been broken open and its contents ransacked. Many of my private papers and the reports in the McNamara case had been distracted I made complaint to the authorities and finally these papers were returned to me by the postal inspectors I am now satis- fled that the charges on which. am now en trial here, of sending black hand letters, were trumped up by the Burns agency to get me out of the way SO that the agency can prevent me aiding McNamara to prove his in- nocence.s
 'T am we'll satisfied now that the pieces of paper which it Is alleged were found on me when I was arrest ed were planted by the same people who planted the dynamite in the basement of the office building where McNamara had his headquarters, and in other places''
