MONEY PLEDGED TO
 BAIL DTNkMTTER6
All But F4eckin VIII Probably 5e Re-
 leased This Week.

IndtanaDolis, Ind, Jan. 5.-As an f1n- mediate step toward procuring bail for the 32 members Of the International Assocta tion of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers now in the federal prison at Leavenworth, Ras-. J. D. McClory, acting secretary treasurer of the un- ion. departed for Leavenworth this af- ternoon, taking with him blank bond applications. McClory did not discuss his plans other than to say that he was taking blanks to the prisoners for their signatures.
 McCiory 1nttmated, however, that practically sufficient money or securR- ties had been pledged to obtain the re- lease of all the prisoners except Her bert s. Hockin, who has announced that he will make no appeal. The funds have been raised principally among labor unions and it is believed that the imprisoned iron workers will be released during the week.
 The announcement by United States District Attorney Charles w. Miller that he would make no fight on fnden- nified bonds or securities located out side of this state, provided they were satisfactory in other respects, has simp1ified the matter for the defend ants attorneys. and they hope to have the necessary S1,070,0 ,000, or it's equiva- lent, for the release of all the prison CTS by the middle of the week at the latest.
