 ther at Indianapolis.

Indianapolis. Jan. S.-Whatever Or tie McManigal. the confessed dyna- hitter, knows about the complicity of others besides the McNamara brothers. in the blowing up of more than 100 -open shop structures in various parts nf the country in the last five or six EearE. is believed to have been relat- ec by him in his preliminary testimony before The federal grand jury today.
 The accOmplice of John J. and lames E. McNamsra went before the 5uyors after his written confession had been presented to them. He was taken from his cell in the federal building. where he had been lodged before daylight after a secret trip from Los Angeles in the custody of fedsrsl officers.
 That the prisoner will be kept in attendance on the grand jury for ten days or two weeks was indicated by the intention of United States Attor- hey Miller to have him repeat his con fession orally and to describe his re- lauons with others in his dynamiting expeditions. from the time he first blew up a structure in Detroit in June 1qo7 down to his destructive activities pn the Pacific coast.
 McAianigsl was permitted to see his father at noon. It was the first meeting between the prisoner and his Gather since the arrest of the former fn Detroit last April. Going into the cell room. the elder McManigal threw hls arms around his son, but his ef- forts tO talk were smothered in sobs
 Malcolm McLaren. the detective, who had been in constant company with the prisoner since his arrest, with aEsv, allowing the father and son tc be alone.
 To keep McManigal from being in terfered with. his identity was hidder during his trip from Los Angeles. He even shaved his moustache and donnet EoR@les as a disguise.

OBITUARY,

Richard r, Crane, Educational Critic.
 Chicago, Jan. Richard T. Crane, head of the Crane company and fee of Universities and higher educational institutions, died at his home tonight after 4 three days illness of Ia. grippe.
 The death of MT. Crane was sud- den, for his illness had not been con- sidered serious. A cursery examina- ton by physicians led to the belief he had suffered from an attack of heart disease. He had just finished light dinner
 Mir. Crane. who was 80 years old, was without the advantages-er dis advantages as he characterized it--of university training and worked his way from the ranks to the head of a large iron working company. He con- tepdsd all his life that the college and the university were useless fix lures and that the money devoted to higher education could be spent more protitably in extending industrial ed Gcation and aiding persons who had met with adverse fate.
 Els demise occurred within a few hours of the issue of an attack on universities, an attack evoked by re- pudiati0n of his theories by college professors and presidents.
 Of his two sons, the elder, Charles Richard Crane, who was appointed minister to China in 1909, but re- signed before leaving America after his recall to Washington, is, like his father, not college graduate. He worked in his fathers mills and learned technical engineering in the dra wing room and at the lathes
 Richard T. Crane Jr., is 8 product of the Chicago Manual Training school and the Sheffield Scientific school of Yale university. The success of this son, who also is a department head in the company, MT. Crane always ar gued, was in spite of, and net because Of, his higher schooling
 A grandson, Richard T. Crane IT., is now q student at an eastern uni versity, the views of the senior MT Crane not being held by Richard T, Jr Richard Teller Crane was born in Patterson. N. J., in 1882. Martin Ryer- son of Chicago gave him his start when he set aside a piece of land on which Crane could start 8 brass foun- dry. From that grew the Crane com panY.
 MT. Cranes philanthropy was de- voted chiefly to efforts to have school boards replace high schools with man. ual training schools. To point the way he founded the Crane Technical institute.
