MCNAMARA BROS, GUILTY
One PLEADS Guilty to WreckIng
Printing Plant One Blew
Up Iron Works,

Los Ang eles, Cal, Dec. |. -
James b. Mcnamara pleaded
guilty to murder in the first de-
gree in Judge Walter Bordwells
court today.
His brother, John j. McNam-
ara, secretary of the Inter-
national Association Of Bridge
and Structural lronworkers, en-
tered a plea Of guilty to having
dynamited the Llewellyn Iron
Works in Los Angeles on Christ
mas Day, 1910.
James b. McNamara's confess
sion clears up absolutely the
tragedy of the explosion and
fire which at l.O7 O'Clock on the
morning of Oct. /, 1910, wreck
ed the plant of the Los Angeles
Times at First and Broadway
and caused the death Of twenty
one persons.
INDICTED FOR NINETEEN DEATHS
For nineteen OF these deaths
the McN9mara brothers were in
dicted, and j. b. Mcnamara was
on trial specifically for the
murder Of Charles J. Haggerty,
a machinest, whose body was
found nearer than that of any
other to the spot where the dyn-
amite was supposed to have been
placed.
Dec. >, was set as the date 10
sentence both men, and II is eX-
pected District Attorney John ID.
Fredericks will ask life imprison-
ment for James b. Mcnamara,
the confessed murderer, ana
probably fourteen years for his
brother.
The mems lives are considered
saved.
The great contention that the
Los Angeles Times was not dyna-
mited is dead beyond resurrec-
ton or argument.

as looking squarely in the faces

him, might have precipitated a
situation untenable save by
the confession Of the prisoner.

by District Attorney Fredericks.
We expected at one time that
jim would confess last Monday,
but he did not, " said barrow.

The pIeadings Of the men
aroused no stir in the court
room. No bailiff pounded for
order. No relative was there 10

A civil case could not have been
more quietly conducted and no
amount Of hysteria could have

pervaded the room.
