WHEREABOUTS Of
THE NAMARAS
IS kept SECRET
Detective Raymond Burns
r Says He Fears Attempt at,
Rescue by Labor People.

CHICAGO. April 2.-Detective Ray
mond Burns, son of William J. Burns, at
1 o'clock this afternoon intimated that
John j. Mcnamara was already on the
way TO California, but he positively re-
fused to give any further information,
saying that he feared that the labor
people would attempt rescue from the
train. The Indications rather are that
IL Mcnamara has started for the coast
is was on the Union Pacific limited this
morning.
Although II had been freely stated
that the others two prisoners. James
Mcnamara and McManigal, had started
for California, there is reason to be-
lieve from what Burns says that they
are still being held here and will not
start until tonight.
1t Is obvious that the elder Burns
has ordered the greatest amount of
secrecy regarding the removal of the
men. for fear of trouble.

IN SPECIAL SESSION
TO AID N 'NAhARA
Doubt That He Knew Any
thing About Dynamite
in Basement.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. April 23.-The
executive board of the Iron Workers
Union, whose session was interrupted
yesterday by the arrest of Mcnamara,
went into a special session today with
its attorney, Leo M. Rappaport. to de-
eide on what should be done In the
present emergency.
President Ryan and all the other
board members are strong in their as
sertions that they had no knowledge
whatever of the room in the basement
where the dynamite was found, and
that If Mcnamara had anything to do
with its being there (Which they doubt.
he never gave any intimation of any
thing Of the sort to them. They say
they are going to stand by him, and
the special meeting today was to settle
on line Of action to pursue.
Attorney RapRaport said, just before
going into the meeting, that II could not
essary to do for Mcnamara. as the full
nature Of the charges against him were
not known, and until they were. his de-
fense could not be arranged. He said
that there was no question but that the
very best legal talent obtainabls would
be engaged.
Attorney Rappaport denounced as
high handed in the extreme the length
to which the officers went In the
search, the warrants for which called
for explosives and dangerous articles.
He says that the officers took check
books. stubs, ledgeTs. and other papers
clearly not included in the warrant,
also keys which Mcnamara had to
the Offices, safe, and other headQuar-
ters paraphernalia, all OF which were
necessary to the transaction of busi-
ness by the union officials. 1t was
said that these papers were turned
over to officials Of the Erectors' As
sociation, which has no right to the
information contained therein.
Attorney Rappaport today COM
planned of this to Judge Collins who
had granted the search warrants and
made a demand for their return.
Judge Collins admitted that the Of
fcers had exceeded their rights under
the warrants and that he would order
the property mentioned to be return

Captain HoItz. of the detective de-
partment of Indianapolis. was again

under his direction.
