Dynamiters Lose
In Supreme Court;
Must Go to Prison

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Former
President Frank NJ. Ryan, of the
Bridge and Structural Iron Workers
Union, and 90 other members of that
organization convicted at Indianapo-
lis in the dynamite conspiracy cases,
exhausted their last legal resource
to-day in their fight to escape prison
when the Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States declined to review their
testimony.
Under the criminal appeals act. a
criminal case may not be appealed
from the Federal Courts of Appeal to
the highest court without a writ of
certiorari, which the court to-day re-
fused.
The convictions were based largely
on the confession of Ortie McManigal
and James B. Mcnamara, former
secretary of the union. The dyna-
hitting of The Los Angeles Times led
to the disclosures which were made
at the indianapolis trial.

New Federal Grand
Jury Gets Charge

The Federal Grand Jury that will
hold its meetings from time to time
from now until next october, was or
ganized Monday with Frank Haw-
kins, president of the Third National
Bank, as foreman.
Judge Newman instructed the new
jury on its duties, being especially
explicit on the point that violations of
the State prohibition law were not to
be COMPOUNDED with those of the Fed
eral liquor laws.
The court then explained the latter
carefully, gave some more general in
structions, and the jury retired TO
take up a batch of moonshiners cases.
