M'NAMARA WILL
NOT Be HANGED
DRAMATIC CONFESSION TO
DYNAMITING MAY SAVE HIM
Greatest Murder Trial in Nation 5
History Had Burdened HeaNly Oh
Minds of Every One Interested ana
Court Will Give Man Consider
alton.

Los Angeles, Dec. 1.-The confess
sion of John and James B. Mcnamara
Yesterday afternoon, which brought
one of the greatest murder trials IN
recent history to a sudden and aston
founding termination, and ended FOR
all time the controversy regarding the
manner in which the Times was
blown up, probably means that James
Mcnamara will not hang.
1t was dramatic in the extreme.
For over an hour previous chief coun-
sci for the defense, Clarence DarroW,
and District Attorney Fredericks sur
rounded by their assistants, had been
in earnest consultation with Judge
Bordwell in his chambers. Then
shortly after two O'Clock Fredericks
and his deputies seated themselves
In the court room and were followed
few moments later by Darrow and
his aides.
Then ensued tense silence
throughout the crowded court room
which was broken only by whisper
occasionally as James B. Mcnamara,
on trial for murder, conversed with
Attorney Davis seated near him.
A momentary buzz of voices follow
ed the sudden appearance of John
Mcnamara, secretary-treasurer of the
Information Association of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers, who was
charged with conspiracy in dynamiting
the Llewlyn Iron Works near here,
Then the buzzer above the clerks
desk hummed, indicating that Judge
Bordwell was coming into the court
room. An instant later he appeared
and with set face took his seat.

Lecompte Davis rose to his feet.

LeCompte Davis rose to his feet.
"On behalf of my client, James B
Mcnamara, / desire to withdraw the
plea Of not guilty heretofore entered
II this case and to plead guilty." said
he, his voice cresending.
When the crowd in the room realiz-
ed what had happened there came a
deep murmur, almost sob, and every
eye sought out the slender prisoner
who sat impassive as for the first time
1T was admitted that he was the agent
that caused the terrible explosion
that killed Il men last October.
''And on behalf of our other eli
ent," added Davis, -. j. Mcnamara,
indicted Jointly with this prisoner we
want to withdraw the former plea of
not guilty to the charge of placing
dynamite under the plant of the
Llewlyn Iron Works and enter a plea
of guilty"
1t was done. People sat bolt up
right and this time gazed at John B.
Mcnamara, the labor leader who sat
quietly before the bar, chewing a
toothpick.
The painful pause which followed
was finally broken by Captain Fred
ericks who arose with the original
indictment charging James with the
murder of Charles Haggerty and
walked over to James Mcnamara who
arose and gazed squarely in his eyes
while Fredericks hurriedly read the
document:
James B. Mcnamara, you have
heretofore pleaded not guilty to the
charge of murder contained in the
indictment. Do you wish to with
draw that plea?"
81 do, SIR" was the answer.
"Do you want to plead guilty?"
"I so plead" said Mcnamara and
he sat down without muscle in his
face twitching.
Judge Bordwell quickly announc-
ed that he would impose sentence at
ten o'clock next Tuesday morning,
which is election day here.
The same procedure was gone
through with John Mcnamara. AL
though he was in Indianapolis at the
time the Llewlyn Iron works explos-
ion took place he was asseccory be-
fore the fact and his plea was there
| fore entered as that of a principal.
He like his brother was impassive.
1t was plain they both realized that
the end had come and the last act
of the big case was closing.
Then the prisoners were remanded
to the custody of the sheriff and
crowds rushed in to congratulate
Fredericks.
I've simply won another murder
case" said he. That's ALL"
Others crowded around Darrow
seeking an explanation of the sudden
termination of the case. His face
pallid, the famous lawyer stood stern
every line showing that he had been
struck heavy blow. He had little
to say.
When the court room was cleared
the jurors were notified and excused
They expressed pleasure at not being
compelled to pass on the case.
It's a great load off my mind,
said Judge Bordwell simply as h'
! hurried away
Deputy District Attorney Horton il
of the opinion that Mcnamara viii
not hand. He said:

tence Mcnamara to be hanged, i

were made, labor papers have reeked

spring against labor, and insisted on
it despite our absolute denials.
eve were certain of conviction
from the beginning. l hope the au-
thOrities will now make the rest OF
the guilty persons come into court
and plead guilty. They ought to be
forced to do so.
II think one result of the confess
sions will be the election of George
Alexander as mayor of Los Angeles
next Tuesday over Job Hartman"

seems to me that the least we can do
for man who has saved us a lot of
money is to spare his life. While it
is an unusual thing for a man to plead
guilty to a crime punishable by death,
in this case that fact will be consid-
cred, and will save j. B. Mcnamara" >"
Asked about McManigal, he said
He will have to take his medicine
with the rest. He won't go free.
Probably he will plead guilty to the
indictment charging him with explod-
ing dynamite at the Baker Iron Works
and will be sentenced for that"

Women who bear. children and re-
