Cal, eommissioned to de- stroy the Times auxiliary plant and by adding few more to the list Of dead to take suspicion of James B. McNamara, who had killed si persons in the wreck of the Times building two months before. AteManigal so testified today at the "dy- namite conspiracy trial. He named men other than the McNamaras as having in- spired the second Los Angeles dynamite plot. He said he was prevented from carrying it out by the discovery on reach- ing Los Angeles that the auxiliary plant was too well guarded and illuminated at night. Instead, he set bomb in an iron works plant to explode on Christmas day.
 That was the aChristmas present" lie said. Olaf A. Tveitmoe q labor leader, often in San Francisco had asked for.
 McManigal and James B. had been hiding in the Wisconsin woods. McMan- isal said like a pair of pirates, each with a red handkerchief about his head in conformity with the game laws and a rifle over his shoulder when a number of detectives appeared at their lodgfrs house. Eluding the detectives, they came to Indanapolls.

J. J. Was Elated


 So elated was John ]. MoNamara over that McManigal start at once for Los Angeles to do some dynamiting.
 James B. said he would like to go out and do it. but J J. objected said Me Manigal J. ]. saying they were looking for a man of his description on the coast and 1t would be a good idea for a stranger to do the jobs and get back east as soon as possible and then the authorities would think their man was still in Los Angeles. '
 Then McManieal quoted directions +s said Js j. MoNarlaga gaye him

Four days latcr arrived in Los Angeles and had buried the explosive in gravel pit neat the river, [ looked oVerit the three places was to blow up and saw that all but the Llewelyn Iron works were too heavily guarded On Christmas eve going into the Llewellyn grounds a dynamite can exploded and injured my hand. That put me out of humor. So l placed the 12 quarts all in one shot and set it for o'clock the next morning.
 "Then l went to San Francisco and called al Labor Temple.
 When l reached Indianapolis in Jhn- uary. John J.. his brother and I met in a closed room at the iron workers hea l. quarters John J. was all ruffled up be cause l had not done more damage. He said ] had spent too much money to 70 so little damage Then he asked me how conditions were on the Pacific coast and whether they had forgotten about the Times explosion. I told him they certain ly. had not, for everybody was looking for that big reward. James B. thought if he could keep under cover for five years the Times explosion would be forogtten.

Wanted to Send Bombs


 fThe dynamiting jobs were 10 go right on, only hereafter dynamite was to be used instead of nitro glycerin, as it was more effective. John J. then told me of a proposal to send bombs by express tc non-union contractors. 1 told him thai would not be right for you never could tell who would open the packages and they might explode on the train. He re- piled he didn't care about that.
 q went to Tiffin, O., and began to stea dynamite from a stone quarry at Bloom vile, O., and store if in shed at the rear of my fathers house at Tiffin. stole 900 or NO pounds and on taking somes of 1t to Indianapolis, II was ar ranged for ].

KINGS FEEL POOR AFTER CHRISTMAS All the European MOnarchs
 Make Gifts COST IS ALWAYS HIGH King of England Spends Over $7000 Every Christmas In This Way. Kaiser.s Gift Said to Have
 Cost 5000
COST IS ALWAYS HIGH

London, December a1 a1.--(Special.) )--ln spite of the fact that he has long purse to dip into--at the expense of his loving subjeets-the King of England, like the rest of us, probably will be "feeling poor" after Christmas. The list of folk to whom King George has to make presents is a lengthy one, and by far the most costly of the gifts that figure in it are those that the king be- slows each year upon his fellow mon archs of Europe. Every Christmas q regular interchange of gifts takes place among all the reigning European sov. ereigns, and the presents that King George sends leave him out of pocket to the extent of. roughly, $75oo.
 One of the last things the King did before he left town, a few days ago, to visit Welbeck Abbey, which the Druce claimant tried so hard to get away from the Duke of Portland, was to choose his little remembrances" for his fellow sovereigns, and these are being packed at the present moment by the carpenters staff at Buckingham palace Packed with a care and disre-
 
 pended on few gifts. even those of roy atty. each article being placed in specially made mahogany case lined with gold paper; this and an exquisitely soft and beautifully scented kind of cottonwood being the only materials used in the packing.
 The King picks out his gifts from a huge number of articles of different kinds which are sent from different shops in the fashionable West End of London to Buckingham palace--about a month before Christmas, This years assortment included solid gold cigar boxes, elaborately and eXpensively bound books, a large selection Of jew elry, many varied pieces of the most valuable china. walking sticks, bold other costly things.
 kaiser's Present
 The kings present last year to the Emperor of Germany was gold cigar box with the emperor's initials on the cover in diamonds. surmounted by the imperial crown. This box cost exactly 5000. To the Czar. in 1911. King George gave an ivory walking stick with a crooked handle of the finest 24- caret gold. This stick had rather a curious history. It was bought from q dealer in rare antiquities and works Of art by a member of the royal house-' hold on behalf of the King. ared a little while after the discovery was made that the stick had once belonged to Peter the Great of Russia King George decided on the spot to present 1t to the head of the present ruling house Of Russia. and accordingly sent 1t as Christmas gift to the Cxar who was

Charley Burke Gets a Job

Charles Henry Burke, representative
from South Dakota, was elected last
week elected vice chairman of the
publican congressional committee. Thi:
means, in all PROBABILITY, that in
the fight to be made by the republicans
for the next house Mr.. Burke will be
in charge of the campaign.
1t became know tonight that VIM.
b. Mckinley, of Illinois, chairman of
the campaign congressional committee,
has been selected to manage the pre-
convention campaign to be waged in
behalf of President Taft. If Mr., Taft
Is renominated, as now seems certain,
politicians say that Mr. Mckinley will
be named by the president as chairman
OF the national committee. In this
event Vice Chairman Burke will succeed
to the office of chairman. Whatever
the Immediate is future of Mckinley,
the South Dakota representative will
have a leading part in conducting the
republican congressional campaign.
In 1906 and 1908 Chairman Mckinley
made his headquarters in Chicago. If
he continues at the head of the con-
gressional committee Mr.. Mckinley
will this year make his headquarters in
New York. This would leave Vice
President Burke in charge of the west
ern campaign, with Chicago as his base
of operations.

NotLackinO Nerve

The south gave the democratic party
of the state, Cyclone Smith, a smooth
talker and politician. For several years
he occupied the front seat in the demo-
cratic wagon. When it was discovered
he was not as reliable as necessary
they turned on him and drove him from
the state. No n appeared to take
his place for some time or until the
south again sent up a man the equal of
Smith both in oratorical ability and
nerve. Granville Jones was the sue.
cessor and he has ably filled the shoes
of the departed. He is a good speaker
and has as much nerve. This is evil
denced from the fact that he ran the
the democratic conference held in
Pierre and did it eve though he was not
a delegate. 1t is reported that he
went to the Brule county delegation
and asked them to place his name in
their list of delegates but they declined
the honor. Their inclination cut no
ice with him however and we presume
but few men in the convention knew
that he was not a delegate. 1t took
nerve because 1t would have been
embarrassing if some one had questioned
his right to the floor he was occupying
