COURT AND LABOR
COUNSEL in TILT
Evidence Regarding Two Dyna-
mite Explosions Is Admitted
in Spite of Protest

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 22.-
The FIRST serious clash In. the dyna-
mite conspiracy trial came this after
noon. when over the heated objec-
lions OF the defense, the government
was allowed TO introduce evidence OF
two dynamite explosions. Incidental
ly Judge Anderson laid down the
lines along which the prosecution
!. Will ba conducted, holding that evi-
dence OF any overt act OF violence is
to be considered proof of conspiracy.
william Riddle, OF Pittsburgh, sup
erintendent for the Lucious Construc-
ton company, of Bellevue. Pa, was
asked about two explosions that
wrecked the work of his company IN
Chicago In 1907. Senator Kern for the
defense, objected.
These defendants are Indicted for
transporting explosives on passenger
cars. and testimony for any explo-
pions is irrelevant" said Kern.
That is not the way this indict-
ment is drawn, and the objection
overruled," said Judge Anderson.
These defendants are charged with
conspiracy to violate the act against
the Interstate transportation OF ex-
Tiosiyes, and any overt act in further.
ance OF that alleged conspiracy Is
relevant"
The defense noted an exception and
renewed the objection to every Ques-
!. tion asked Riddle.
"Obtection overruled, and note an
exception said Judge Anderson.
laconically, each time. Il have no
time now to listen TO further argu-
ment."
The courts ruling was q distinct
set back to the defense. Counsel for
the IRON workers had asserted that
they would contest the admission OF
ali evidence OF explosions, because
their clients were charged only with
Illegal transportation Of dynamite and
nitroglycerine.
Riddle was allowed to tell his story
On the night Of Dec. 81, 1907, he said,
material belonging to the Lucious
company, simultaneously was dyna-
mited on bridge on the Parma road
near Cleveland and a viaduct at Mill
sCreek The aggregate damage was
about $1.700.
Four months now Is the estimated
duration OF the dynamite conspiracy
trial. When Miss Mary Dey today
resumed her testimony regarding J.

mated schedule In presenting the gov
