(By the Associated Press.)

Los Angeles, Cal, April 28.-Al-
though it has been all but certain for
some time, without any definite details
being known. that a confession has
been made in the dynamite conspiracy
case. all doubt that important progress
along that line had been made was
removed by Ortie E. McManigal him
self today.
He declined to see Attorney Job
Hartmann, former Socialist candidate
for Vice-Presid ent and cOunsel for the
MCNAMARA brothers, the alleged con-
federates Of McManigal.
District Attorney ~Fredericks had
said that the prisoner would see none
Of the lawyers associated with the de-
Tense, and McManigal later confirmed
this personally to Hartman at the
Jail.
Hartman went to the prison ex-
pressiy to give McManigal an oppor-
tunity to repeat the declaration the
accused dynamiter made yesterday to
Attorney 0. n. Hilton that he had nor
made a confession and would make
none.

Instead, to his questions the lawyer
received today replies very different.
These replies caused him to declare.
upon emerging from the sheriff's office.
that John j.. Mcnamara and his
brother. James, are now the only ones
in Who's behalf the defense would
center it's etforts-the only ones whose
lives were to be fought for by the law

Furthermore, the only visitors Nc
Manigal receives now are men from

Nc Immunity Promised, 1t is Said.
Suggestions that immunity had been
extended to MECHANICAL brought de-
malls from the district attorney, who
said that no promises had been made
to the prisoner.
