New York, oct Opinion regard
ing the outcome of the worlds series
appears tn be unusually divided, this
year. Prominent baseball players and
writer's are predicting very close
series Of games with low scores pre-
dominating. All speak of the luck or
break of the game being an important
factor in the ultimate winning OF the
championship The same situation has
developed in the betting. Outside OF
the home cities of the two competing
clubs, the wagering is at even money
In Philadelphia the Athletics are
slight favorftes over the New York
team and here local supporters are
diioting odds of 10 to 8 on the Giants

the part of managers and players OF
clubs are beginning to be heard here
with the gathering of the advance
euard for the opening game, next
Tuesday. Among those who are IA
yoring the Athletics are Frank Chance,
Napoleon Lajoie, Clark Griffith anu
Umpire Billy Evans.
Some of these who are naming the
Giants as probable winners are George

George Davis, Union Worker, Makes
Sensational Confession Following
Arrest at New YOrk--He Is the
"O'DOnnell' of Indiana Trials.
Declares Conspiracy Still Exists--Fresh Charges
Apprehension Of New Suspect.

New York, Oct. dynamite out
RACES that rivalled the exploits of the
McNamara brothers and of Ortie Nc
Manigal were confessed, today, by
George f. Davis, a union worker
Davis, who was arrested here, to-
day, was the George O'Donnell, who
figured in the trial at indianapolis
that resulted in the conviction of
Frank M. Ryan, president of the In
ternational Association of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers, and 81 of
his assistants.
All the explosions that Davis says
he caused were touched on and testi-
fled to at the dynamiters trial in In
dianapolis, but the fact that Davis
caused them remained unrevealed, I'M
til today, when he himself told of it.
Another Arrest.
Davis confession resulted, today, in
arrest in indianapolis of Harry Jones,
secretary treasurer of the Iron Work
ers Union, His confession supple
ments the evidence presented at the
indianapolis trial and makes fresh
charges against some of the men there
convicted, and now in prison. Some of
his revelations concern President
Ryan, who is now out on bail pend
ing appeal from a prison sentence of
seven years
Davis says he was the man chosen
to kill Walter Drew, attorney for the
National Erectors Association, in Dec.
1911, after Drew was charged with
kidnapping John j. Mcnamara. 1t
was suggested also that he try to
Get" William j. Burns, the detective,
employed by Drew and his assistants,
to unearth the dynamite conspiracy.
The price on Drew's head at that time,
Davis said, was $4,000.
Il told them,' his confession contin-
ues, that 1 didn't want to mix up in
such business" Davis consented to
return to Indianapolis without extra
dition. His bail was fixed at $4,000.
Conspiracy Continues.
The conspiracy, thought to have
been broken up by the conviction of
Ryan and others, still exists, accord
ing to Davis confession. With the
of Harry Jones. the men he
in connection with his vari-
Gus dynamite jobs already have been
arrested. although his confession in
dictated that the government had not
obtained all the discriminating evidence
against these defendants, when they
were tried at Indianapolis. Apprehen-

| sion of this McManigal of the East
was due to Robert Foster, Louis
vile detective, who Swallowed the iron
worker through eastern cities Final
~, several weeks ago, when Davis was
dlspleased with his treatment by the
union, Foster persuaded him to make
a full confession.
This was, on Sept. 16. For week. Da-
Wis had been working in Pittsburg for
the Thompson Starrett Co Then the
local delegate of the Iron Workers
Union told him he must pay SIG initia-
ton fee to the local union or quit work
Davis quit The detective told him that
he knew all about his deeds anyway,
and Davis, feeling that the union had
deserted him, accompanied Foster to New
York. Here. in the presence of repre-
sentatives of the federal district attor-
ney and the National Erectors' Associa-
ton he dictated and swore to the long
detailed confession which was given out
by the district attorneys office. today
Davis said he had been an iron worker
since 1900, and had been employed at
Denver, St Louis. New York, Washing
and Birmingham

reer as a dynamiter at Trenton, " J.
In careful detail, his confession de-
seribes how he blew up or tried to blow
up buildings and bridges in various cities
and towns of the East. 1t was during
his preparation of plans to destroy new
building at Fall River, on April g. 1905.
that Davis first came into communication
with Harry Jones. He says he got Jones
at indianapolis on the telephone and
asked him for money. Jones, he adds,
sent $50. Davis asserts that Jones was
familiar with the work he was doing
Under the name of "O'Donnell,s Davis
was arrested for the Fall River job and
served two years in prison. During his
prison term, he says. his friends made a
couple of noises in other parts of New
England to convince the authorities that
Davis or O'DonnelI was not the only
person doing dynamite worn. After he
left prison officers of the union gave him
money and he went to his home In Cof-
feyville, Kan John ]. Mcnamara want
ed him to take up his old trade in Okla
homa, but he refused because it was too
near home. s..
The arrest of the McNamaras followed
soon and at the advice of President
Ryan, Davis says. he returned to the
East. One of his latest exploits was the
dynamiting of a bridge at Mount Vernon
under the direction of Frank c.. Webb.
a New York member of the executive
committee of the union. who is now
serving six years in prison.
A feature of Davis statement was a
story of a gigantic scheme to set off ST.
simultaneously explosions in Omaha. San
Francisco st. Louis and New York City,
while the McNamaras We're in jail This
was to create the impression that tho

responsible for all the dynamiting in the

Boston. Oct. 2.-Should a strike of
engineers and firemen ON the New
York. New Haven & Hartford Rail
road be ordered, Gov. Foss will ask for
special session of the Massachusetts
Legislature to enact laws to prohibit all
strikes of railroad employees within the
Commonwealth. This is a deelara ton
contained in a letter which the Gov
ernor sent, tonight. to officers of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
and the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen at New Hav-
en-, CT.
The letter says in part:
Il am informed that the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers and the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen are now voting upon
the proposal to inaugurate a strike up
on the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad, and that this strike, if
authorized will occur at such time as
may be determined by a committee of
which YOU are members.
This is of grave concern to the peo-
pie of Massachusetts. y strike upon
the New Haven system means the
stopping of the wheels of industry, loss
of employment to hundreds of thou
sands of labeFers, interference with
the regular supply of food and fuel
and a consequent high death rate
among invalids and infants. As Gov
ernor of the Commonwealth | am
bound to take such action as | can to,
prevent such public calamity
L am informed that the principal
question at issue between your organ
ization and the New Raven Railroad
is whether the promotion of employees
and the assignment of duties Shall be
governed solely by the rule of senior
ity, or whether fitness as well as length
of service shall be taken into consid-
Grafton. Your organizations are re-
ported to take the position that the
rule of seniority should govern, Whi!2-
the railroad desires that fitness shall
be taken into consideration as we'll as
length of service.
Without looking at the matter from
the standpoint of either railroad or
its employees, | desire to remind you
that this question is one which vital
ly effects the people of Massachusetts
and indeed of all New England. Pre-
motion and the assignment OF duties
according TO seniority without regard
to fitness lower the efficiency of the
labor force, make it impossible for the
railroad to maintain discipline, and inn
pairs the ability of the railroad to
serve the public.
"Phe real issue is not between the
railroad and it's employees but between
the employees and the people of this
commonw wealth: and The question .
whether the lives of the people shall
be placed in jeopardy ~ the mantle
nance of the seniority rule, and wheth-
er, in order to enforce this rule our
people must submit to the evils Incl
dent to a railroad strike.
Under these circumstances, 1t is my
duty to say to you if you inausurate
a strike upon this issue, you Will place
your organizations in an indefenceable
position and will array against you the
people of Massachusetts and other
New England states.
"If this strike is declared, ii will he
come my duty to take such measures as
are within my power to protect the PEG
ple of this commonwealth. To that end
If the strike is called, ! shall ask tho
