 Find Specific Information.
 The specific information which led to the arrest of the McNamaras and Ortie McMa-igal for complicity in the blowing up of the Times building and the Llewelin Iron works in Los Angeles, Cal. was furnished by the National Erectors' association of this city and was the result of the asso- ciations careful investigation of dyna- hitting ourages throughout the coun- try in the last three years.
 The association had discovered that the dynamiting was being done by band of 15 men and prior to the de. struction of the Times building it had descriptions ~of nearly all. These were on file when in January District At torney J, D. Fredericks of Los An Pplps COuntV e1nt out n ci~nuIar d, scribing the me wanted in connection with the tragedy and offering a re- ward of $2,000 for their arrest.
 One of these circulars was mailed to the headquarters of the National Erectors' association at 35 West Thir. ty-second street, New York city, and Walter Drew, commissioner of the as sociation, who had the dynamiting in- vestigation fin charge, quickly recog- nized two of the descriptions as flt- ting men who had been at hand where two places were blown up in the east. The circular called for the arrest of M. A. Schmidt. alias F. A. Perry; ]. B. Leonard and J. B. Bryson, David Caplan, alias William Morris and Will liam Cap.
 In J, R. Bryson Drew believed he recognized James w. McNamara. and In Caplan he was certain that he rec ognized McManigal The description of Schmidt did not tally with that of any of the suspects.
 The David Caplan of the circular had worked in Portland. and so had McManigal. Both also had been street car conductors in New York and each had been connected with biscuit company in Portland, Ore. and had sold newspapers and cigars for d news concern in Nevada and Califor- mia. There were also striking similari- ties as to habits and personal appear. ance. With regard to Bryce. both he and McNamara claimed .o have been printers in Clevelapd and Chicago, and both were of the same height. weight and habits.
