Washington, April .27.-Lawyer
Senators declared, today, that court
precedents are well established in
such cases as the kidnapping of
John J. Mcnamara and that the Su-
preme Court of the United States has
held repeatedly as follows:
First-That a man cannot legally
be arrested and extradited as fugi-
tive from justice unless he was in
the state where the crime was COM
mitted at the time it was committed.
Second--If he is transported-no
matter by what means-to the juris-
diction of the court, the Judge may
not inquire into the means of his
presentation but must try him.
They contended that no technical
legal defense could be made for Burns
in Kidnapping Mcnamara. but that

BURNS MAKES STATEMENT.


Indianapolis, April PIT am
bound to no corporation, or class of
men. I can prove my honesty and
also prove that / work only in legiti-
mate cases. This is all rot about my
being 80 wild about that reward Of
fered for the Los Angeles dynamit-
ers."
This was the parting shot fired, to-
day. by Detective William J. Burns,
here, before leaving for his Chicago
offices. The detective stated that he
had talked more concerning the ar
Namara, his brother and Ortie Nc
Manigal than he had of any of mis-
cases.
Il feel that 1 am forced to a de-
fense,' said Burns, because labor
organizations have been so severe in
their criticism. I do not believe in
discussing evidence of a case before
the trial comes off, 1 would never
have discussed this case had L not
been called thief and branded a
criminal
Burns denied that any of the men
accused of the dynamiting had been
put through the third degree.
This is something I never did in
my life and never WILL" said Burns.
Il get the evidence against the GRIM
inai and put it before the court. j
believe in a square justice and this
is what Mcnamara will receive. Evi-
dence in the case will show that we
can connect John Mcnamara with
dynamiting in almost every state in
the union and if we cannot convict
him in Los Angeles we will bring him
back to Indiana or take him to Illinois
and try him.
Burns said he expected to start for
the Pacific coast soon. He expects
the McNamaras to ask for an early
trial and the detective says he is
ready at any time.

Los Angeles, April 27.-The first
move in the legal fight over the ar
rest of John j. and James B. Nc

ing attended by the two attorneys and
MessrS. Dawson, CROUCH, Timmons,
Butler and other local labor leaders.
Butler is a member of the Structural
Iron Workers organization.
The gathering is believed to indi-
cate that back Of the accused will be
not only the iron workers union but
all the general orga anizations of labor

ers, through Hilton, already formally
interested.

Miners, telegraphed Hilton that his
Organization. alone would undertake
to raise a fund of s250,000 for the

lief in the innocence of the accused.
Following their conference with the
prisoners, Hilton and Hartman will

liminary hearing which will be held.
early next week, unless Hilton decides
to apply for a writ of habeas corpus.

Black River Falls, Wis, Oct Z. -
With the towns OF Black River Falls,
Hatfield and North Bend practically

houses swept away. 1t is still impos-
sible tonight to verify rumors Of loss
of life in the Black River valley floods
and the remarkable spectacle is pre-
scented of thousands of people home.
less with perhaps not the loss of a
single life.
This evening the waters of Black
river began to recede and it is felt
that the worst is over. Fear is eX
pressed however, that buildings still
standing on the brink of the flood
may topple over.
Fifty three business buildings out
of sixty.one in Black River Falls have
disappeared, as have thirty residences
The town of North Bend, north of
here, is entirely destroyed. Damage
to crops of the surrounding country
will be immense. The water in all di.
rections is covered with floating car
cases of chickens, hogs, sheep, cat
tie and horses.
The loss to Black River Falls alone
is estimated at 100000, while the
La Crosse Power company, the break
ing of whose dam at Hatfield caused
the destruction of practically every
thing in the valley, will lose at least
100000.
Thousands are homeless in the hills,
having fled before the great flood
waves swept down the valley. Food
IS scarce and starvation threatens, as
he transportation of food supplies is
, question with which to be reckon. !
I'd. Miles Of railroad track have been |
washed away. Milwaukee, La Crosse

o ship food and clothing as soon as
I can be brought into the stricken |

Mayor MacGillivray says 1t will be
some days before the flood has re-
,eded sufficiently to permit an exam

he need of relief is imperative.
The giant wall of water which swept
he town was ten feet in height when
/ reached here, and continued to
gather force later.
