|S IN CONTEMPT?
Attorney Verch Ayers One of McNamara's s Attorneys Has Committed Offense by Refusing to Answer Questions.

LOS ANGELES. Sept 1S.-A war rant charging sJOhn R. Harrington, a Chicago attorney connected with the defense of the McNamaras with con tempt of court, in failing to answer questions put to him by the grand jury, was issued today after a cita- ton had been filed with Deputy Dis trict Attorney Vetch Accompanying the citation are two affidavits, one by Charles F. Weir. foreman of the grand jury. the other by D. II. Inger- soil of San Francisco. husband of the woman at whose rOoming house U. B Bryce" is alleged to have stopped. and who identified J. B. McNamara when he arrived here as Bryce Har- rington was not found, and is said to be in San Francisco at a conference with state labor leaders. When liar ringtOn was called before the jury he was asked: Did you ever pay D. H. IngersOn or Mrs. Ingersoll any money?
 Did you ever promise Ingerso.l g.. 900 or any other sum, if he would procure the absence from the state of Mrs Ingersou. and further agree to furnish him an autOmobile?' and other questions of equal directness.
 Harrington. it is said. refused to answer, as he said he being an at torney. was not required to do so. According to Vetch, this is but the beginning of a series of prosecutions by the state to put q stop to alleged attempts to intimidate and influence witnesses for the state at the coming trial of the alleged dynamiters.
 Tt was hoped that Harrington's ap- pearance before the grand jury" said Vetch. would be sufficient to stop attempts to influence witnesses, but it seems not; for there are other reportS of witnesses being annoyed by persons who attempt to frighten them and influence them ir other ways. The result was we made pub lie the indictment, which was returned August A. and we were forced to proceed with the prosecution. If, on his return to Los Angeles, he still refuses to answer. we will prosecute and if he is found guilty, that car ries a penalty of five years in the states prison"
 Attorneys for the defense deny that any one on their side is trying to influence witnesses, but claim such attempts have been made by the prosecution, and cite the instance of contempt proceedings against Mrs Ortie McManigal.

precursor Of dificulties, becauseN the
hat is clampsd down with 80 many
