Bisbee daily review., 1912-12-29

fanama 10 recount his experiences with HOckin Men who drove livery wagons check boys in railway sta- tions, who cared for suit-cases. filled with rnalimachines. hotel clerks who booked the McNamaras and McManigal for rooms, detectives. sten- ographers, contractors who suffered form explosions, and telephone oDer- ators, ali related piecemeal their knowledge of the defendants conyer- sations or movements. which the gov ernment undertook to weave into completed story to show at once the individual guilt of each. and the col lective guilt of all the defendants.
 One by one the defendants heard the charges repeated against them
 Tveitmoe heard his name mentioned often. He was accused as having fur nished Caplan and Schmidt to help blow up the Times building He was named as having sent word 10 Me Namara the month after the eXplO- sion that things were all right on the coast" and as having requested the dynamiteTs again be sent to Los Angeles, later acknowledging another explosion there on December 9, 1910, as "a Christmas present" McMani- gal said he called at Tyeitmoe's of flee in San Francisco, but met only Eugene A. Clancy there. Anton Jo- hannsen was mentioned by witnesses as having helped TyeitmOe. William J. Burns testified he told Mayor Alex ander. of Los Angeles, the day after the explosion, that 'ryeitmoe and Johannsen were behind it. Testi- mony about Johaunsen was permitted on the ground that though not a de- fendant, he had been shown to be a conspirator.
 J. E. Munsey. Salt Lake City, was charged with harboTing the Los An geles dynamiter for two weeks. \ tailor in Salt Lake City said he al tered clothes for the dynamiter. and other witnesses said they saw Nun sey. also known as Jack Bright and McNamara together.
 Clancy was again mentioned as be- ing in Boston when the Pacific coast explosion occurred. and as hurrying west after telegraphing Clean house" meaning, as the government charged, to destroy evidence. H. w. Pohlman, of Seattle. was mentioned as bringing McNamara and Clancy together in that city.
 Of all the defendants Herbert s. Hockin was probably the most con- spicuous in the testimony.
 The story Of Hockin. as told. was: As an organizer of the union, he in- duced McManigal to do dynamiting. Then he began to hold out" on the pay allowed McManigal for jobs. This resulted in quarrels and the McNa- Tr huvH Fn with him. Knowing this, Hockin went to a contractor in Pittsburg and betrayed the dynamiteTs. That was before the loss or life at Los Ange- les. Later HOckin worked for Burns, while still remaining as an of ficiaI of the union. and when the fed eral grand jury began work in h. dianapOlis, HOckin took information to the government.
 The testimony at the trial resulted in the increasing of HOckin's bonds. so that he was confined to jail. Hoe kin asserted to those for whom he was accused of acting as a spy, that he took no part in dynamiting, but witnesses from MunCie, Ind, and al Cincinnati pointed him out as the man to whom they actually sold eX' plosives-
 HocEin again was the man most mentioned by McManigal After ne had induced me to blow up a job in Detroit in 1907" said McManigal, "Hockin Ntold me there was no use of my attempting to quit now as they had the goods on me. l asked him who was going to pay me for my work. He said the executive board had set aside a limited fee of SIPS for each job and expenses. ] told him it was too little for a thing like that. He replied my family would be taken care of. if anything hap pened. So l went to Bloomville, O., and got an order from Nat France to Bill Carey, who was the Keeper Of a magazine where dynamite was stoT- ed for use in stone quarry and they let me have some without knowing what ] was going to do with it. l used it to blow up a derrick at Clin- ton. Iowa. February 16, 1908.
 "Hockin two weeks later visited me again in Chicago and said he did not have enough money to pay e&- penses for the Clinton job, but for me to go to the hall of the local un- ion. When l went there the sec-e- tary. R. H. Houlihan gave me an envelope containing Sl65. Houlihan said. There is money in that
 In July of 1908. according to Me Manigal, Hockin met him in Buffalo, and after pointing out viaduct, said he wanted to get to Canada before the explosion took place. About II | o'clock that night McManigal set off the dynamite with a sixty-foot fuse. he said Hockin met hinelater in Chi cago and paid him.
 Then Hockin asked McManigal to go to St Louis, but he refused, and went instead to Holyoke, Mass. where an explosion failed because the dyna- mite was buried in the ground too 1 long, McManigal said.
 Up to March, 1909, Hockin was the l only man who knew me as a dyna- miter, said McManigal. Just De- fore that date he arranged for me to go to Boston and see M. J. Young regarding the job on the Boston Op- era house, which was blown up." Later on instruction from HOckin, McMani- gal said, he went to Hobolzen to con fer with Frank C. Webb, of New Uorf- ,hous hIpyvfuo mn a ,-iaducf A
