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

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. pa
The first serious clash in the dyna-
Nate conspiracy trial came this after
noon. when over the heated objec-
ftions 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
viii be conducted, holding that evil
denoe 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-
sions 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-
Llosives, 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-
ton asked Riddle.
Objection 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 a distinct
set hack TO the defense Counsel for
the IRON workers had asserted that
they would contest the admission of
all evidence of explosions, because
their clients we're charged only with
illegal transportation OF dynamite and
nitroglycerine.
Riddle was allowed to tell his story,

material belonging TO the Lucious
company, simultaneously was dyna-
