DYNAMITE ALL ON
INTERSTATE TRAINS
District Attorney Tells Court
MCNAMARA Plot Convictions
Were for Carrying Explosives.

CHICAGO, Oct. 31.---In answer to a
request of the court that the govern
ment show proof that the dynamiters
specifically intended and did carry ex-
plosives on passenger trains, District
Attorney c. w. Miller, of Indiana, to-
day argued before the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals that in every
instance in which details of dyna-
hitting had been shown the dynamite
had been carried interstate on a pas
senger train.
The record showed at least fifty
such instances, he said, and there
was no evidence of any explosion, the
dynamite for which had been trans
ported in any other manner. The
government based its case on seven
teen transportations of nitro
glycerine and eight of dynamite, he
said, and all these offenses occurred
within the year during which the Los
Angeles Times building was blown up
in October, 1910.
The labor union officials who now
seek a reversal of their convictions at
Indianapolis last December were con-
victed only on evidence of their
NioA"Nhb AhtSA Stdte lSbuidltoh VI thO
shipment of explosives, and not on
evidence Of the destruction of life
and property. Mr.. Miller told the
court.
He said the details OF the explosions
were gone into only to show that the
Ironworeks' Union had a motive TO
destroy open shop contractors.
Mr.. Miller named Eugene A. Clancy,
San Francisco, and Henry w. Leg
leitner, formerly of Denver, as having
actually promoted the shipment of
explosives, in addition to being guilty
with President Frank NJ. Ryan, of the
Ironworkers' Union in the general
conspiracy.

The commission government forces
of Iryington took initial steps last
evening In preparing to resubmit the

1t is planned to hold an election next
February.
The Commission Government league
met at 1922 Springfield avenue and

have an opportunity to vote on COM
mission government the more as
sured will be the chance of success.
That 1t would win Mr.. Headley did
not doubt for a moment.

GRADE CROSSING
FIGHT CONTINUED
Utility Commissioners viii
Take Further Testimony in
Paterson Case Today.

Continuing its hearing the Board
of Public Utility Commissioners will
take more testimony In the Paterson
Embarrassing elimination fight late
today at the Court House. Several
hearings have already been held, but
there is still much evidence to be Of
fered by. both the city and the Erie
Railroad Company. the contestants.
The city seeks to have fourteen
dangerous crossings on the Erie rail-
road done away with, either by eleva.
ton or depression of the tracks. The
railroad would be unable to bear the
cost of such a procedure, and the
manufacturers would also find 1t UNI
profitable to have the tracks changed
1t is claimed.
Hearings on petitions for the extern
sion of gas mains to the Dundee Lake
section in Saddle River township and
to Bergenfield were held before the
commissioners today. The Public
Service Gas Company was the de-
PENDANT in both matters.
Secretary Fourier, of the Saddle
River Board of Trade, and Albert
Higgins, the postmaster of Saddle
River, testified to the conditions If
the section in which the gas Is wanted
About sixty property-owners have
signified their intention of using the

sion is made.
Several citizens from BergenfielC
appeared to plead the cause of thai
place. Howard L. d. Gilmour repre-
scented the Public Service and sci
fourth that the cost of installing tht
gas In each case would be prohibitive
The petition of Joseph Mcbride, {
citizen of Hoboken. asking that con
ditions at the Hoboken terminal o.
the Public Service Railway Company
be remedied was also before the board
for hearing today.
Mcbride is an electrician and hai
been leading a fight in HobokeI
against dangerous appliances ant

trolley wires are strung is now re
ceiving his attention and the petition
to the board Is the result.
