Dennis J. Collins, Cambridge dog
fancier, who is accused OF having
taken the dynamite to Lawrence from
Quincy, Mass, also was arrested. His
response when asked to plead startled
the spectators in the courtroom. He
said:
Il am guilty, | guess-the way they
put It up to me-"
BY suggestion of the prosecutor,
however, plea of not guilty was
entered, and Collins, being unable to
furnish $4,000 bail, was remanded to
prison. His surprising plea is ex-
planned by the fact that he is ex.
pected to be star witness for the
state. In fact, with the expectation
that he might be induced to take such
action, District Attorney Pelletier
had his bail reduced to $500.
More Evidences Being Prepared.
Meanwhile two Investigations OF
other phases Of the dynamite planting
were in progress. District Attorney
