Especial from United Press.


 Los, Angeles, Dec, 6-Eclipsing the result Of yesterdays election, when Job Hartman was badly defeated. for Mayor of Los Angeles, is the bribery situation growing out of the convic- tion of the McNamaras by their own pleas. Many rufnors are being circu- lated regarding the imminent arrest lof persons closest to the defense as a result of Judge Bordwelps emphatic declaration that bribery knowledge forced the defense to admit defeat. It is declared that a special grand jury will be summoned next week, when Chief Justice Hutton, of the Su- perior court, returns Further sen- sationalt developments here are unlike Iy before the hearing in the Franklin cease, next Monday.
 Meanwhile, the Federal probe here .is becoming of the utmost importance. Oscar Lawler. detailed by Attorney General, Wickersfam to take charge .of the Investigation, plans to make it l. a widespread net.
 E District Attorney Frederieks admits that from now on the case will be iii the hands of the Federal aafthori- ties
 While Fredericks asserts that the reason he withdrew from the case af- ter the McNamara pleas Of guilty was because he believed, the Federal gov- ernment could do the best work, fol- lowers of the Job Harriman, defeated Socialist candidate for Mayor, declare 1e.s was called off as a part of the "dfcker',, by which the big business in- terests retained control of the city.
 Ortis MeManigaI and both the Me- Namaras will appear before the Fed eral Grand Jury. The latter will probably give no inforr6ation.
 John J. McNamara was leader of the advocates of direct action. MeMan- igal will tell the Federal Grand Jury that the reason John McNamara be- good gun man., and could make good and get away, if necessary. He will also declare that he was an anna teur in handling high explosives when compared to James B. McNamara.
 The latters bombs never missed fire.
 MeManigal will tell, also, it is said. just how dynamite was trafficked in on the Pacific coast. He will declare that he, J. B. McNamara and Schmidt brought to the coast several suiteases filled with dynamite. Some of this was used for an explosion at the Yu- kon Company offices in September, 1910, he will declare, while the. rest was used on the plant of the Oakland Pacific Lumber Plant, in August, 1910. These two explosions, McManigal will allege, were planned by the Pacific coast labor leaders, and Lawler hopes to get indictments against them early next week, arrest them and force an immediate trial
 J. B. McNamafa has declared that he often used more than 50 pounds of dynamite in demolishing buildings, etc., and so he felt when he put Is sticks of dynamite in Ink Alley, at the Times building, that it would not do great damage.
 He had just placed the case with the bomb alongside the building when Joe Brown, whose Identification of him first caused J. B. to weaken, ap- peared and demanded:
 What in hell are you doing?" J. B. said he was looking for the Times ad room, and went to that department Returning, he saw. soap box in front of a grocery store across the street, picked it up and went back and cov- cred the suitcase and then fled
 Jim insists that either his bomb broke the gas main at the Times building or his accomplice went back and knocked off the gascocks.
