Indianapolis, Dec. 2y.-Weeping
women and wondering children looked
on while thirty-eight labor union off,
Gals were led, handcuffed, to the Ma
rion county jail, after they had been
pronounced guilty Of completely In
the Mcnamara dynamite plots, includ-
ing the blowing up of the Los Ange-
les Times building Oct. /, 1910.
Only two Of the forty men on trial
left the courtroom free men. They
were Herman G. Seiffert Of Miiwau.
kee and Daniel Buckley OF Daven-
port. Ia.
The convicted men are to be SEN
fenced shortly, at which time the de-
tense will file an appeal, and II the
bonds fixed are not too heavy all the
defendants will be at liberty pending
review Of the verdict by the United
States circuit court Of appeals.
Some May Escape Lightly.
Some Of the defendants, II is ex.
pected. will receive comparatively
light sentences, as the court at diff.
ferent times remarked that II had
been established that all were not
equally guilty. The longest term
that any Of them can be sentenced to
serve is thirty-nine and half years.
The verdicts came after trial last.
ing more than three months and after
the jury had deliberated on its find.
ings for more than forty hours. Ora
matte scenes accompanied the pre-.
sentation of the verdicts, which were
received in deep silence, broken only
by suppressed sobbing Of the wives OF
the convicted men.
All those adjudged guilty were
found guilty on all the counts as
charged in the indictments.
After Judge Anderson had cleared
the courtroom OF all spectators and
the families of the defendants the
thirty-eight prisoners were taken In
custody by deputy United States mar.
shals and special detectives and were
taken to the Marion county jail.
Not Accused Of Dynsmiting.
The men were not charged actually
with causing explosions The only
charges under which they could be
prosecuted by the federal government
we're conspiracy and illegal transpor-
tation Of explosives. Bat the court
ruled that evidence as to violence was
competent as showing motive.
