DYNhM|TER HAD \ GUIDE
McMANiGAL SAYS OMAHA MAN
 PtlOTED HIM.
McNamara Had Many Good Fellows" Scattered Around to Cause S-
 muItaneous Explosions.

Indianapolis, Ind.-"When you ar rive in Omaha to blow up the power house you will be met by somebody who will show you where 1t is.'
 That statement, said by Ortie Nc Manigal, confessed dynamiter, to have been made to him by John J. McNa- mara, convicted secretary-treasurer of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers, was in- quired into by the federal grand jury's s investigation of dynamite conspiracy
 McManigal says that in response to the instructions from McNamara he went to Omaha in July, 1910, to blow ur the power plant of an ''open shop" contractor and was met by man whose name he gave. This man told him he could not do the "job" because he was not experienced in explosives, and so McManigal was chosen.
 It was about this time, according to McManigal, that McNamara said to him: T am going to get six or eight good fellows and station them about the country so explosions will take place in different cities all in one night, and they won't know who is doing it.
 McManigal is to be kept continu- ously before the grand jury for the next three days, describing orally, and more in detail than was given in his written confession, his movements from the time he was Induced to go into the dynamiting business at De troit in June, 1907, down to his arrest last April
 The nineteen days sessions of tn grand jury have disposed of about 20 witnesses. More than 100 witnesse still are to testify.

 Scene.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 ytheyille.-Circuit Judge Driver ordered N. P Carpenter held without bail in connection with the killing of his wife and her mother, Mrs. Mary Davis, near here, late on the night of January :. It was ordered further that Ed Giles and Frank Hamilton, farmers, who were accused by Car penter of having been implicated in the killing, be admitted to bail in the sum of $10000 each. The release Of Giles and Hamilton met with the ap- proval of citizens of BlytheYille, but public feeling is intense against Car penter. On this account Carpenter was brought here remaining only long enough to waive examination and ap- pear as a witness against Giles and Hamilton. He was immediately taken back to Osceola, where he was lodged in jail to prevent possible mob vlo- fence.

Washington, D. C.-President Taft commuted the penitentiary sentense of Banker Charles w Morse The sen tence will expire at once.
 Morse is at McPherson hospital, 70 which place he was removed when he became seriously i'll recently. He is being kept alive, it is claimed, by the use of stimulants

November 6, 1909 he was sentenced to serve if teen years in the penitentiary at At lanta He had fought the case with appeals and every other conceivable manner, and even after he went to prison the fight was kept up. It was continued by his wife and the few friends who retained their faith in him
