SECRET OF THE
Times DISASTER
IS Laid BARE
DYNAMITER SAID TO HAVE MADE
NINETY-PAGE CONFESSION
TO DETECTIVE.
ORGANIZED LABOR IMPLICATED
Quantity OF Dynamite, Batteries And
Other Things Found In Nc
Namara's House.
ORGANIZED LABOR IMPLICATED

Chicago, April 24.-Capt. Stephen
Wood, chief of the Chicago detective
bureau, states that a full confession
has been obtained from one of the men
arrested in Detroit, concerning the
dyanmiting of Los Angeles Times
building.
The alleged confession is said to
make ninety typewriter pages and to
cover the movements of the men now
under arrest, and others who are being
sought by detectives.
According to Capt. Wood, it de-
scribes in detail the dynamiting of
buildings, railroad trains and factories
where conflicts between union and
non-union labor existed. The loss of
many lives and the destruction of
property valued at almost $2,O00,000,
is said to be detailed.
The chief of the Chicago detective
placed in the possession of attorneys
representing the National Erectors'
Association, and has been sent to Los
Angeles, to be used in the trial of the
cases aaginst the men under arrest.
"The confession was made at the
home of Detective Reed, of the Chi
Pcago police department, in South Chi
cago," said Capt. Wood. More arrests
in the case are expected, and any dis
closures of the details of the confess
sion at this time would make them
almost impossible.
while here the men under arrest
never were in communication with
each other and, neither knew his COM
house. They were questioned inces-
sanity, and finally a confession was
obtained from one of the men. Then
the California authorities were mott
fed, and after indictments had been
returned, the extradition papers were
rushed here. Not until these papers
were received, was any move made to
place any others wanted under arrest.
The plants of dynamite found since
the Indianapolis arrests were told in
the confession and the names and
whereabouts of other men now being
sought are known to the detectives in
the case"

CAUSED BY PUBLICATION OF oP-
TON ON SOME OF ITS
LARGE HOLDINGS.
SCRANTON TINES STATEMENT
Consent of Majority Stockholders OBJ
tained-Minority Stockholders
May Participate.

The News gave to the world Satur-
day the first real information in re-
gard to the deal by which some of the
large holdings of the United States
Lumber Company and the Mississippi
Central railroad may change hands.
The Scranton (Pa.) Times of the
same date makes the following state
ment:
THE cause of the recent furry in
the market prices of the stock of the
United States Lumber Company is out.
Yesterdays Times fully authenticated
the statement made in its columns
nearly a week ago on less direct au-
thority, that an option has been ne
gotiated with responsible parties for
the sale of the stock of the United
States Lumber Company at 1920 and of
| the Mississippi Central Railroad CON-
pany at $50 share. All of the stock
holders of both companies may partici-
pate in the sale on the same terms.
The option runs until December list.
, If it goes through stockholders will
ty-five per cent every month thereafter,
get twenty-five per cent of the pur-
chase price early in January and twen-
| all in cash, until the whole amount is
paid. II the option should fall through
the stockholders who agree to sell will
! get their pro rata share of a large for
! felt which will he put up as guaran-
tee of good faith. In the meantime,
stockholders in the Lumber company
will get two per cent dividend every
/ three months.
The deal, which is being closed is
not a sale. 1t is not yet a consum-
mated option. The consent of the
requisite number of stockholders has
been obtained, but the $4,000 consid-
GRAFTON for the option has not yet been
paid. When the option has been
! completed it will not be absolutely GER
tain until December next that it will
result in a sale. The people interested
| may change their minds as to the
value of the property. They may find
more attractive investments elsewhere.
/ The money market may be such that
| they cannot raise the $15,0O0,000 nee
! essary to swing the deal. Any one of
a hundred things may happen to in
terfere. But whether the property is
sold or not the incident will serve at
least to fix the approximate intrinsic
/ value of the property by competent
people outside of the management of
/ the United States Lumber Company.
! 1t is not likely that the stock will drop
in the markets again to the low prices
! which have recently ruled"

gave OUTLINE
OF noble WORK
Address Made by Maj. r. G. Fegley
Sunday One of Great
Interest.

Maj. F. G. Fegley, of Volunteers of
America was in the city yesterday and
today. He preached at Court Street
Methodist church last night, and also
gave an outline of the work being done
by the Volunteers of America under
the leadership of Ballington Booth and
ais wife, Maui Booth.
Maj. Fegley gave an interesting ac-
count of the work in which he is en-
gagged in New Orleans, and recounted
some of the experiences he has had in
other sections of the country.
The work of the Volunteers is pri-
marily directed in the interest of the
Submerged Tenth" The abandoned
the outcast, the criminal classes, all
are objects of their special solicitude
and these above all others receive
their attention. They have what they
are pleased to call Hope Hall. These
institutions are meant as a temporary
home for released prisoners, where
| they may be given homes and Chris
tan encouragement before going out
again to face the world with the handi-
cap of a prison record.
Maj Fegley made it very plain that
his organization is not ecclesiastical,
but that they urge every convert to
speedily find church home, believing
that no man is safe in his religious life
who tries to live a Christian outside
of church They do not exact vows
of fidelity to their organization from
those who profess conversion under
their ministrations, but always urge
immediate connection with some
church. Maj. Fegley's work in Louisi
ana has just been recognized by the
state, to the extent that Governor
Heard appointed him as chaplain o
Hope plantation, one of tn,
state penal farms, He says tina
they have had 400 men among the pris
oners of Louisiana to profess CONVEX
sion since the first of October, wher
their work was first established il
Louisiana.
Maj. Fegley has been commissioned
as the officer in charge of the work o.
the Volunteers, for the South. His
visit to Hattiesburg was for the pur
pose of looking over the situation here
and to consider plans for active worl
in Mississippi. The Volunteers have
done large work in providing for this
destitute children in the cities where
they work. They have also done ex
tensive work in rescuing women from
life of shame.
The local work of the Volunteers Of
America is in charge of Captain j. H
Ralston, who has credentials to show
that he has for number of years
been giving his life to rescue work
both among men and women.
Maj Fegley returned to New Or
leans this afternoon
