SEVERAL HOTEL CLERKS AT IN
DIANAPOLIS TRIAL IDEN
, TIFY HIM
CONFESSION IS CORROBORATED :
Activities of James B. McNamara Af
ter Blowing up Times Build
ing Traced on Hotel
Registers
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 10. For the
first time since he confessed to dyna
miting, Ortie E. McManigal uefore a
jury in the "dynamiting conspiracy"
trial today was identified by hotel
clerks as having visited various cities
at times when explosions had occur
red. H. L. Pierce, Kansas City, Mo. in
the pages of a hotel register traced
"J. W. McGraw" as having been reg
istered at a Kansas City hotel August
20, 1910, three days before McMan
igal blew up a portion of a 1,000,000
bridge across the Missouri river,
which, he says, was arranged for by
W. Bert Brown, of Kansas City, and
James B, McNamara.
"Do you see McGraw in the court
room?" asked James W. Noel, spec
ial assistant District Attorney.
"That's the man," said Pierce, point
ing at McManigal. The line of tes
timony was followed by the Govern
ment as tending to carry out McMan
igal's confession that he actually
caused the explosions detailed in his
confession and for which the Govern
ment charges members of the execu
tive board of the International Asso
ciation of Bridge and Strictural Iron
Workers paid him at the rate of $200
a job.
R. G. Quigley, of Duluth, identified
McManigal as a visitor at a Duiuth
hotel in July 1910, shortly before an
explosion at Superior, Wis. F. W.
Gates said McManigal wag the "J. G.
Brice" who frequently registered', at
a hotel in Rochester, Pa., where lat
er was discovered nitre-glycerine in
quantities hidden under a shed.
The activities of James B. McNa-.
mara on his return to Indianapolis af
ter blowing up the Los Angeles Times
building were also traced in hotel
registers. At the suggestion of his
brother, James B. took the uame of
"Frank Sullivan", dropping all the
aliases he had used on the Pacific
Coast. H. M. Spinning, a deputy Sher
iff of Lo8 Angeles county, identified
photographs of both the McNamaras.
This was done, it was announced co
the jury, because the McNamaras
were "detained" in San Quentia pris
on in California and could not be
present.
In presenting great Dunaies or leie-
crams which were identified by man- i
agers of Telegraph offices from many j
parts of the country, but the contents I
pf which were withheld until later, j
the Government attorneys announced
it would be shown that arrangements ,
for the Pacific coast explosions were j
carried on by telegraphy, that of Olaf
A. Tveitmore and Eugene A. Claucey,
of San Francisco, and J. E. Munsey,
known as "Jack" Bright Salt Lake j
City, communicated about the explo-
sion in telegrams and that Clancey
and Munsey "worried over the search j
instituted for the dynamiters," sent
back and. forth messages concerning
the whereabouts of James B. McNaru,
ara'. HE WROTE LETTERS
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10 The) au
thenticity of the mojority of the let
ters recently made public by William
R. Hearst, purporting to have passed
between John D. Archbold of the
Standard Oil Company ant members
of the House E-ad Senate, was admit
ted by Mr. Archbold today before the
Senate committee investigating sam
paign expenditures.
Those letteis, of whioi facsimile
photographs have been published,
were in almost every case iden
tified by Mr. Archbold with the state
ment, "I undoubtedly wrote that."
These included letters to and from
Senators Hanna, Foraker, Quay and
Penrose; and ex-Representatives Sib
ley, of Pensylvania and Grosvenor, of
Ohio. Many letters Mr. Archbold
said he did not remember, hut lie
recognized handwriting and signa
tures and admitted their genuineness.
The president of the Standard Oil
Company, recalled by the committee
after making big charge in August
that he had given $100,000 to the Re
publican campaign fund of 1904. ad-
mitted today that the: receipt given i
by Cornelius N. Bliss for toe sum had
been destroyed by himself and the
late H. H. Rogers. He said he had
not been able to find even an entry
of the amount on the books of .he
Standard Oil Company.

BOSTON, Oct. 10. New York
i came back with Rube Marquard to
day and made it even with the Red
Sox, taking the third contest of the
world's series by a ecora of 2 to 1.
The Sox, fighting desperately and
forced to come from behind, made a
sensational ninth inning tally that
threatened to pull the game out of
the fire when Marquard faltered and
the Giant defense threatened to
crack. But Cady, who had relieved
Carrigan behind the plate, was un
equal to the task put up to him in
the pinch and when Devore pulled
down his long fly the agony was end
ed and the race was evened up.
Marquard, who had been a question
maik - in the Giant battery cast of
characters, came back with a flash
of his early-season 19-in-a-row form,
and giving a lead of one run in the
first inning, held the Sox safe all the
way.
Buck O'Brien, who opposed the
Giant southpaw pitched a grade of
ball that would have won with 'ots
to spare had he been pitted against
the Giants' exhibition of yesterday,
but the luck was not with him, and
the Giants backed Marquard up in a
fashion that must have made Mat-
thewson envious.
Bedient made a ninth inning entry
after O'Brien had given way to a
pinch hitter, and held the Giants
safe in the closing stanza.
The attendance today was 34,624;
receipts, ?63,142,
Of this the National Commission's
share is $6,314.20; players' share,
$34,096.68. Each Club receives $11,-
365.62. '
The total attendance for the first
mree games wa3 iuz.&uz.
That the ninth inning rally did not
at elast tie up the game was unques
tionably due to the fact that the Bos
ton coachers went up in the air at
the critical moment With Speaker
out of the way, Lewis singled and
combed a stinging double down the
right field line. Devora and Merkle
handled it poorly, while Lewis scor
ed and Gardner was held at second
and a moment later was nabbed at
third when Stahl rapped a hot groun
der to Marquard, who threw to Her
zog. Wagner then tapped to Fletcher
who shot one straight and true to
Merkle for what should have been the
closing out but the first baseman drop
ped the toss.
Now came the play of the day.
Wagner stole second, and a hit meant
Red Sox victory. Cady caught one
square and true. Like a bullet it
whistled far to right center and 30,
000 spectators roared over an almost
sue victory. Devore; started for the
ball. By one last desperate dash he
came in line, reached up over his left
shoulder with his back to the crowd
and by one of the greatest catches
of the year saved his pals from sure
defeat.

'LITTLE TIN HOUSE'
IS UPSET BY COURT
JUDGE CAMPBELL DECIDES PORT
LAND OWNS SMALL LOT IN
DISPUTE
PROPERTY NOW PART OF STREET
Plaintiff Alleged Ownership of Valu
able Portland Strip, as Heir
of Benjamin
Stark
A unique suit involving the owner
ship of a strip of land having a front
tage of fourteen feet and a depth of
forty feet at the corner of Sixth and
Ankeny streets, Portland, was decid
ed in favor of the city Thursday af
ternoon by Circuit Judge Campbell.
It is the site of "The little tin house."
The court held that the public right
of easement had been proved. The
lot forms a triangle and is valued at
between $3,000 and ?4,000.
Probably no piece of property in
Portland has a more interesting his
tory than the little strip of Jand in
volved in the suit. Norma G. Seaman
claimed the property by virtue of an
administrator's deed from the estate
of Benjamin Stark. Dan J. Malarky
and L. E. Latourette, representing
the city, showed that the propercy
had been used for street purposes for
many years.- It was paved with grav
el in, 1878, and since then has been
hardsurfaced several times. It orig
inally was sold to pay for street im
provements. In September, 1911, on
a Sunday night the plaintiff had a
little tin house carted to the property
and left there. The next day he ob
tained an injunction against its re
moval by the city.
On the ground that Multnomah
county judges might be interested in
the outcome of the suit, McCoy &
Nichols, representing the plaintiff,
got a change of venue to Clackamas
county. Judge Campbell heard evi
dence in the case several months ago
and Thursday! the case was argued.
The court held that there was little
question that the property belonged
to the city. Attorneys for the plain
tiff announced that an appeal would
be taken, and meanwhile "The Little
Tin ' Housed which is regarded as
more or less of an eyesore, will be al
lowed to stand.
