HOLD-UP ARTIST REPEATS
ON LOS ANGELES JOB.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 24.-"Pye
been working in luck with you guys.
I've got you almost dozen times and
none of you got me yet"
This was the parting message of a
masked bandit who early today after
wrecking a street car by piling ties
upon the track and firing half doz-
en- shots in the direction of the crew,
robbed Conductor Fred Williams of
s26 and escaped.
The robbery was the seventh on
the same line within six weeks and
the eleventh within the city in the
same time.
The police believe the same man
is guilty of all of them

TVIETMOE AND CLANCY
LAUDED IN COURT.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec 24.-Ortie
McManigal, the self-confessed dyna-
miter, was scathingly arraigned by
Senator John w. Kern in his argu-
ment for the defense in the dynamite
conspiracy trial here today.
Kern said.
The governments case is too cir
cumstantial and asks the mind to in
fer too much. The uncorroborated
portions of McManigal's remarkable
piece of fiction damns the whole tale.
1t is founded on spite and revenge,
and the motive of the confessed
arch-fend was expected when he said:
When | am caught, we are all
caught.
by careful coaching this man has
been helped to defile the names of in
nocent men"
Kern then referred to the cores
pondence taken in the raid on the
iron workers headquarters here, Civ
ing legitimate interpretations to
those sections which the government
alleged showed knowledge of dyna-
mitings. He argued that John Nc
Namara alone was responsible for the
dynamitings.

McMANIGAL Is SCORED
BY SENATOR KERN

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 24.-Olaf A.
Tveltmoe, secretary Of the Asiatic Ex-
clusion League, and Eugene A.
Clancy, both of San Francisco were
eloQuently defended at the so-called
dynamite conspiracy trial here to-
day by United States Senator John
w. Kern OF Indiana, Of counsel for
the defense.
These charges" Kern said,
against Tveitmoe and Clancy are
ridiculous. They say here that these
two men are guilty of completely in
the dynamiting of the Los Angeles
Times building but they did not in .
dict them on that charge in the
courts OF California. They try to
bring against them here what they
have not tried them for in their own
community The volume Of evidence
presented at this trial was beside the
issue These men are charged with
illegally conspiring to transfer ex-
plosives from one state to another.
Yet, a man hearing the evidence, and
not knowing the charge, would say
these men were being tried for dyna-
hitting buildings and destroying the
Los Angeles Times"
