lfSNhH
Indianapolis, Dec 31.-Thirty-e eight
OF the forty union labor defendants
in the dynamite case on Saturday
we're found guilty of conspiracy and
unlawfully transporting explosives on
passenger trains in violation of the in
terstate commerce law, when the jury.
which had been hearing evidence inthe
remarkable case brought in it's verdict.
An appeal to the United States cir
cult court Of appeals will be taken
by each of the defendants, according
to announcement made by attorneys
for the defense. The higher court sits
at Chicago, and the right to ask it to
review the case will be taken by the
defendants. The probability of the
writ being granted is debatable.
Two of the defendants, Daniel Buck
ley of Rock Island, ILL.,, and Herman G.
Seiffert of Milwaukee, were found not
guilty.
Each of the 3S men convicted
wiz be sentenced separately. The
maximum penalty is thirty-nine years
and six months in prison and fine OF
$4,000. Under that maximum the
judge can impose sentence according
to his opinion of the personal re-
sponsibility of the men in the crimes
for which they were tried. Should he
believe any of the defendants innocent
he can release them.
The following were found guilty:
Frank NJ Ryan, Chicago, president

Since the trial began, on October 1,
eight defendants had been dismissed
on the ground that no cases existed
against them.
OTtie E. McManigal, the confessed
dynamiter, who became the chief wit
ness for the government, naming nu-
merous men as having assisted him in
causing explosions, and Edward Clark,
Cincinnati, who pleaded guilty at the
opening of the trial here, remain to be
disposed of.
Clark probably will be sentenced
with the others. He confessed to
blowing up bridge at Dayton, o.
McManigal has been here In custody
of a deputy marshal of Los Angeles
county, California, as loan" to the
federal prosecution. He probably will
be returned to Los Angeles county,
there to await sentence on his plea Of
blowing up the Llewellyn Iron works.
