proof Of McNamara's guilt. because de-
tectives often had created" evidence

president Of the Iron Workers associ1-

statement on behalf Of himself and the

and asked the people to withhold judr-

To the public il may seem That the
finding Of explosives in vault supposed
to be in his sole control is evidence OF

Already there is evidence in our hands
to the effect that strangers had access

TO us it seems strange, indeed, that
the police should find it necessary to kid
nap Mr.. Mcnamara and take him to
Chicago In an automobile, when. rs
they assert. they have an abundance of
evidence on which to convict him, II they
actually have this evidence. we cannot
understand why they should have been
unwilling to allow him to confer with
his attorney and TO preserve such OF his
rights as he might have had in the courts
of Indiana. Evidently those men feared
tho outcome OF any proceedings In this
