Men knew how to use language then
as we know how to use edged tools to-

Arrested on Another Charge.

April II last twelve yeggs were arrested
in Toledo, Ohio. for bankbreaking. This
was the cue for Raymond ]. Burns. son
Of William j., to arrest Mcnamara and
McManigal In Detroit next day on two
John Doe warrants. The pair were
leaving q hotel in the evening with a
dress suit case filled. it Is 1alleged, with
dynamite and time-cloek apparatus. Tho
bank robbery charges enabled Raymond
Burns to take the two men to Chicago,
as they signifed their willingness to go
without giving warning Of the real cause
of the arrest. Burns wanted to get them
to Chicago because Police Sergt. James
Hossick was going to that city with the
reouisition papers from Gov. Johnson Of
California, made out on the Governor OF
Illinois. There the prisoners were taken
and held until Burns was ready to ar
rest the other Mcnamara in Indianapolis
last Saturday.
After his two months incognito Burns
reappeared and attended to other mat
ters, unless the dynamite case showed
any important turn. He had made his
theories and was only waiting to get
evidence against his men. He will try
to prove that they bought dynamite in
several different places, Indianapolis,
some near Cincinnati and some In Illinois.
He now considers that he has evidence
to connect James W. Mcnamara and
Mechanical with several other explosions
and dynamite outrages.

Tells How Burns Led Search.
NEW YORK. April 2-Some of the
movements Of Detective William J. Burns
in obtaining the information which led up
to the arrest Of John J. Mcnamara and
Of James W. Mcnamara, his brother, and
Ortie B. McManigal were told by R c..
SCHNEIDER. the head Of Burns local bl-
reau.
At the time Of the dynamiting of the
Times plant in Los Angeles Burns was In
Los Angeles attending the convention OF
the American Bankers Association. He
was called in by Mayor Alexander and
the committee Of the Merchants Associa-
ton to investigate. Shortly afterward he
disappeared for two months, not even
his offices knowing where he was, nor did
he communicate with them. He knew
that he was being Swallowed. and
Workers Association called up his va
rtous ofilces to find where he was. ysSome
Of his efforts at this time were to throw
OF shadows" ...
He next located the three men Of the
launch Pastine in q furnished room in
the Mission district Of San Francisco.
From the landlady here he obtained
still better description Of the three. He
found in the room a paper that contained
the outside wrappings of fuses, and a
large trunk left by the three. This trunk
Burns considers Of importance in this
case.
Tracked to Chicago.
At the end Of these two months he was
practically sure Of two Of his mon. He
found J. W. Mcnamara in Chicago. Nc
ManIgal. who. 1t Is alleged. passed under
the name Of Kaplan. was with Mona
mara. They lived in q room on the
South Side. and hung out In certain sa-
looms and dance halls. From time to

Cleveland and elsewhere. Some dyna-
mite blow-up always followed these little
jaunts. the detectives charge. Burns

scene and grabbing the clock arrange
ment. The clock found on this occa-
sion will be used by Burns at the trial
in California to show how these Jobs are
done.
Always after these little trips the two
men. 1t is charged, would turn up in
Chicago with plenty of money. During
their stay in Chicago the watch was
slightly relaxed, as Burns knows that a
man cannot be Swallowed long without
realizing 1t. When they seemed ready to
start out that was another matter.
Burns asserts that Mcnamara and Nc
Manigal had correspondence with John }.
Mcnamara, the secretary of the Iron
Workers Association, in Indianapolis.
