RETURN NEW BILLS
M'NAMARAS INDICTED TWENTY
ONE TIMES.
McManigaI Main Witness Against
Brothers-Crowd Fooled by Secret
Moves of Jurymen.

Los Angeles, Cal.-The grand
jury has found 81 new indict-
ments against James B. and John J.
Mcnamara and Ortie E. Mechanical,
the alleged dynamite conspirators.
Nineteen of the indictments, it Is
understood, are against the McNama.
ras alone, and charge them with muir.
der in connection with the blowing up
of the Los Angeles Times plant on
October l, and the consequent deaths
Of 81 men.
The other two are said to be
against Mechanical as principal and
the Mcnamara brothers as accom-
plices In the Llewellyn Iron works ex-
plosion, Christmas day, In which no
one was killed.
McManigal was the principal wit.
ness heard by the grand jurors, about
whose movements and meeting place
a veil Of secrecy was thrown.
When the jurymen assembled they
were told to go quietly, one by one, so
as not to attract attention, to the jury
room of Judge Willis court, in the
hall Of justice, next to the county jail.
In the regular grand jury room dunn
my jurymen were quartered, while
bailiffs mounted guard at the door
Then witnesses were directed to Judge
Willis courtroom.
When McManigal was summoned
he was taken from his cell and thence
escorted over the bridge leading from
the prison into the hall of justice and
the jury room. He was examined for
more than two hours. Immediately af.
terward the grand jury adjourned.
The grand jury heard several wit
nesses besides Mechanical. Among
them were employees and officials of
the Llewellyn Iron works and Paul
Stuperich, proprietor of a hotel at
Sausalito, Cal, which the alleged dy.
namiter known as J. B. Bryce visited
before the wrecking of the newspaper
plant.
Another witness was Douglas Bur
rowes, partner of Howard Baxter in
the ownership OF the launch Pastime,
which, according to the detectives, was
used to transport the dynamite pur-
chased by the alleged conspirators.

FOOD IN SERMONS
Feed the Dominic Right and the Ser
mons Are Brilliant.

A conscientious, hard-worklng and
successful clergyman writes: Il am
glad to bear testimony to the pleasure
and increased measure of efficiency
and health that have come to me from
adopting Grape-Nuts food as one OF
my articles of diet.
For several years l was much dis
tressed during the early part of each
day by indigestion. Ny breakfast
seemed to turn sour and failed to d.
gest. After dinner the headache and
other symptoms following the break
fast would wear away, only to return,
however, next morning.
Having heard of Grape-Nuts food,
finally concluded to give 1t trial.
made my breakfasts of Grape-Nuts
with cream, toast and Postum. The re-
suit was surprising in improved health
and total absence of the distress that
had. for SO long q time, followed the
morning meal.

satisfactory, the headaches ceased, and
the old feeling of energy returned.

whereas before 1 began to use Grape

marked improvement in this respect
resulted from the change In my diet.
II am convinced that Grape-Nuts
food produced this result and helped

FLAYS DYNAM|TERS
ROOSEVELT DENOUNCES BOMB
PLOTTERS IN LOS ANGELES
BRANDED AS CRIMINALS.
DEFENDS DETECTIVE BURNS
Says Fact Of Men Being Union La.
borers Is No Excuse for Attack on
the Prosecutlon-Mayor and Off
Gals Receive Threats.

New YOrk-In the course of
q signed article in the forthcoming
Outlook dealing with the Los Angeles
Times dynamiting, under the title,
Murder Is Murder" Col. Theodore
Roosevelt says:
IF the explosion was not an acct
dent, but the deliberate act of any
man or men, it was an outrage Of das-
tardly iniquity, for 1t was one OF
these crimes in which the murderer,
in order to crafty his spite against
an individual, not merely wrecked
that individuals property. but with
callous Indifference takes the lives of
scores of innocent people as an Incl
dent to the achievement of his sim
lister and criminal purpose.
The men responsible for dynamit-
ing the Los Angeles Times building
are responsible not only for the wreck
of the newspaper offices, but for the
loss of many lives
THE arrest was made in conse-
quence Of testimony secured by Mr..
Burns, who has been Mr.. Heney's
right-hand man in bringing to justice
grafters who violated the law of the
United States in Oregon and grafters
who violated the laws of California
in San Francisco. He has proceeded
with impartial severity against the
most influential politicians and the
richest business men.
ut happens that the men whom he
has now arrested are members Of a
labor organization, just as men whom
he formerly arrested were members
Of the Republican or Democratic par
ties or of great and wealthy corpora
TONS
1T would have been a wicked thing
in the former cases with which Mr..
Burns had to do, for leading Repub-
licans or Democrats to combine to
break him down and support the ac-
cused merely because the accused be-
1onged to their political parties; it
would have been wicked thing for
big capitalists and big business men
to make common cause with the cap
italists against whom he proceeded,
merely because they were capitalists.
mo worse service can be rendered
by labor union leaders to the cause
of unionism than that which they rem
der when they seek to identity the
cause of unionism with the cause of
any man guilty of a murderous attack
of this nature.
II have no idea whether the men
arrested on Mr.. Burns statements are
or are not guilty; the labor leaders in
question have no idea whether or not
they are.
They are entitled to an absolutely
fair trial. If they have no money to
provide counsel for themselves, then
1t would be entirely proper for any
body of men to furnish them the
requisite funds, simply as an incident
In securing them fair trial. But it
Is grossly improper to try to create a
public opinion in favor of the arrested
men simply because the crime of
which they are accused is committed
against a capitalist or a corporation.
and because the men who are charged
with committing it are members of a
labor union"

FIND NEW EVIDENCE
POOLE HELD MRS. GUINNESS 4
MODEL WIFE.
Fowler Ond.) Farmer Said TO Have
Asserted He Would Be Rich
With Mate Like Her.

Fowler, Ind..-Preparations for a
continuation of the search for
more bodies on the Poole death farm"
four miles from here went forward
with vigor. simultaneously a new
and startling story having to do with
Poole's state of mind reached the lit
tie Indiana town. Francis Meyer, a
neighbor of Poole, is responsible for
the statement
According to Meyers story, Poole
was great admirer of Mrs. Belle Gun
ness, the Laporte woman whose suit
ors disappeared as mysteriously as
Poole's farm hands, and upon whose
farm bodies were found. In family
conversation at the Poole home at
which Meyer was present Poole is de-
clared to have remarked that If he
had a wife like Belle Guinness he
would have been wealthy long ago.
He is also alleged to have said that the
cheapest way to pay farm hands was
with gun or club, anyway"
Meyer further said that he had a
talk seven or eight years ago with
WdIu odASS, uSpuSW VI IOOACS dAu
at that time Banes told Meyer that 1t
was the impression among the rela'
tives that Poole had killed farm hand
and buried him in the locust grove
east Of the house.
Another sensational statement in
this connection is attributed to Man
ley Marlowe, brother-in-law of Poole
by Lafayette Qnd.) newspaper. 1t is
said that recently Marlowe said posi-
lively that he could put his foot on
the grave of another man on the Poole
farm
The anger of the inhabitants of the
county has not cooled with the ar.
raignment of the prisoner and his re-
tention behind prison bars without
bonds. A band of villagers turned out
to look over" the Jail. They could
not see within and made no attempt
to enter, but they seemed to find en-.
| joyment in standing about and watch
ing the place.
