AS tending to show the implication
of labor union officials in plots, the
government introduced at the "dyna-
mite conspiracy" trial in indianapolis
Yesterday testimony that explosions
on non-union work followed the re-
fusal of contractors to unionize their
Jobs after personal visits by some OF
The defendants. Before two charges
Of dynamite exploded on bridge IT
st. Louis on August 8, 1908, John /.
Garrett, president of construction
firm. testified he was visited by John
H. Barry, of the local Iron Workers
Union. Barry wanted me to union
ize the job" said Garrett. "He said;
you'll find it a great deal cheaper,
for YOU know what will happen
told him l suspected he was going to
dynamite the job, and he had better be
careful. 1t was blown up later"

chance. The first race was to be
! for five miles, but owing to mis-.
understanding they went ten miles,
and Allyn was so busy adjusting

have the speed in her. Murphy
drove a very gamyi race. The time
given for the first five miles was
a little better than eight minutes
