DYNAMITE PLOT
CASES IN u. S.
APPEALS COURT
Thirty Labor Union Officials, Ad-
judged Guilty Of Conspiracy
In M'Namara Explosions,
Ask That Verdicts Be
Set Aside

Chicago, Oct. 29-Another chapter In
the story of the dynamite plots that
eliminated in the fatal explosion in
Los Angeles in 1909 was written today
when the case was called before the
United States circuit court of ap-
peals.
Thirty of the SO labor union Off
Gals, who were adjudged guilty of
conspiracy in connection with the Nc
Namara explosions, asked the court
that the verdicts be set aside and
that they be given a new trial OPP
posed to them, the Federal govern
ment asks that the convicted men be
sent back to prison in Leavenw orth,
Kan, to serve their terms.
A sentence of seven years, the heav-
lest penalty of all, hangs over Frank
M. Ryan, who is out on $4,000 bail
pending this appeal He was given
the longest term, Judge Anderson in
Indianapolis said, because he was
president of the international Asso-
citation of Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers, out of whose funds the ex-
penses of the dynamiters were paid.
Six years imprisonment is the PEN
atty that Olaf A. Tveitmoe, of San
Francisco, and each of six others, ask
to be set aside. Tveitmoe is a labor
leader prominent on the Pacific coast.
He and the six other men were given
the second longest terms because they
were found guilty of voting to appro-
pirate the unions funds for dynamit-
ing non-union work OF actually aid
ing John J. and James B. Mcnamara
in explosions on the Pacific coast.
The other prison terms, most of
which have been suspended pending
the appeal, vary from four years to
one, year and one day.
Three days of the present court are
to be devoted to the hearing on the
appeals and the governments OPPOSE
ton. It is likely that when the ar
guments are finished Judges Kohlsaat,
Baker and Seaman will take the pc
tition under advisernent. It is I'M
derstood that should the present ap-
peal be adverse to the convicted men
it will be carried to the United States
Supreme Court.
The basis of the appeal as outlined
by Chester H. Crum of st. Louis and
Elijah N. Zolin, of Chicago, the coun-
Ell, is;
That under the Federal statutes
there is no such crime as the conspir-
acy of which the men were convicted,
namely conspiracy to violate the law

MAIL SUMMONS KNOCKS
OUT PERSONAL SERVICE

Cleveland, Oct 29-After one month
of operation Municipal Court Bailin
Charles L. Sulzer announced today
that his plan of subpoenaeing by mail
had demonstrated it's great superior
ity over the old method of personal
service. Out of total of 1877 sum-
monses in the past month only IA re-
manned undelfvered, while under the
old system, he says, at least So would
have been undelivered because of
changes of address which are not rec
ortled in the directory.
1.-The Post Office Department is
more quickly notified of changes in
address," he said, thence the percent
age of undelivered summonses ~ is
much smaller. The total cost to It'll
giants for the notification by mail has
been only $67.50, while under the old
system it would have cost $270.12.'

plosives on passenger trains.
That there being no such conspir-
acy, the defendants could not have
been guilty as principals in the car
rying of explosives by Ortfe E. Nc
Manigal and the McNamaras.
That the defendants did not have a
fair trial.
District Attorney Charles w. Miller
Of Indiana, has charge of the gov
ernment's case, the brief of which
contains more than 700 pages.
Among those who are not appealing
is Herbert S. Hockin, now serving a
six year term in Leavenworth. He
was called the Iago of the conspiracy.
1t was charged that he not only car
ried dynamite and nitro glycerine in a
suit case, but that he gave infOrma-
ton to detectives while in the con-
hdence of his co-conspirators. At
first he appeared among the defend
ands in the trial in Indianapolis, but
later he was abandoned by his coun-
sci and was kept in Jail before the
case went to the jury.
