ney on the stand this morning. He
testified that Atteaux conferred with
him prior to January 20 regarding the
strike at Lawrence. Breen said he re.
ported things "pretty troublesome"
at Lawrence, and that rumors of a plot
to dynamite the textile mills were rife.
Breen said he suggested that At
teaux use the "strikers' own meth.
ods" and plant dynamite to scare the
strikers. Atteaux, according to Breen,
then telephoned Ernest Pittman, a
wealthy contractor, and arranged for
Breen to meet Pittman later.
The testimony offered yesterday by
Collins, one Of the defendants, was full
ly cOrroborated today by Breen. He
also told of Atteaux giving him a
package containing $500.
January 20, Breen said, Pittman in.
troduced him to a man named Rice,
who handed him a package Of frozen
dynamite. Breen said he then gave
the package to Collins, who carried it
to Lawrence.
Collins statement that he did not
know of the existence Of the plot was
contradicted by Breen. The witness
also said that in choosing places to
plant the dynamite he wished to leave
the explosive where the strikers were
the thickest.
Breen also described telephoning to
Police Inspector Rooney, and telling
him that he knew where the dynamite
had been planted. He told Of Rooney
finding the dynamite, and of the arrest
OF the occupants of places where it was
found. One of those arrests, he said,
