as many jail comforts aa possible.
Anton Johannsen. stale organiser for
the Building Trades Council, who knew
Schmidt, one of the men wanted for
complicity in the Times dynamite case,
has not yet had an Interview with John
J. McNamara.
"I have only met John J. McJJamar
casually at ona of the labor conven
tions." said Johannsen to a reporter to
day. "I haven't seen him since he waa
arrested. All of the Information the la
bor men have about this case has been
turned over to the attorneys and they
are handling the matter. It seems now
that the prosecution has about shot Its
bolt. We don't believe tbia McManlgal
confession, and It Is not alarming the
friends of the McXamaraa. If there has
been a confession, the ease would have
looked a whole lot more serious to ma
and to others who believe the McNa
mara boys are Innocent. I think the
bringing out of this confession betrays
the weakness of the case of Burna. He
is after glory and money, but I don't
think he will have much s-lory when
this case Is over. I am not in Los An
geles in connection with the arrests of
John McNamara. however. I am here to
handle this labor eituatton."
Prisoners Have No Visitors.
Added precautions were taken today
In the County Jail against possible
communication with McManigal by out
siders and against any communication
with the McNamara brothers that is
unauthorized by the Sheriff. Sheriff
Hammel today refused to admit news
paper men to the Jail, saying that he
must take every.' precaution. The po
lice guard and Burna' plain clothes
guard - Is still maintained out of the
Jail, and Inside there la also a special
guard.
The prisoners may not now be ar
raigned until after the arrival here of
W. Joseph Ford, the Assistant District
Attorney, who went to Indianapolis
with the Los Angeles detectives. Ford
will arrive here Wednesday night, tha
District Attorney said today, and then
active work will be begun In the case.
Out of the mass of conflicting rumors
that spring mushroom-like about the
developments of the dynamite case,
only one thing stands clean-cut today.
McManigal has been dropped out of the
plana of the defense, and counsel for
the two McXamaras have Indicated that
they Intend bending every effort to
weaken the effect of his confession.
With the arrival today of Leo M. Rap
pa port, general counsel for the Struc
tural Iron Workers' Union, a personal
friend of John J. McNamara. the de
fense began for the first time the for
mation of real plana.
Rarpaport will report direct to Clar
ence Darrow whether the situation here
requires that attorney's pesence. If
tn Rappaport's opinion Darrow's help
la required, the Chicago lawyer stands
ready to take up the cudgels for the
defense, says Rappaport.
Andrew Gallagher, secretary of the
Labor Council of San Francisco, said
that Rappaport would remain In charge
until the arrival of Darrow. Gallagher
declared there waa no uncertainty about
the coming of Darrow.
"He will be here and he will be chief
counsel In the case." he asserted.
Gallagher la In receipt of a telegram
from Samuel Gompers. president of the
American Federation of Labor, express
ing confidence In the Innocence of the
McNamaraa and hope that the people
would reserve their final Judgment at j
least until the case is tried.
Gallagher declared today that be haaj

evidence) against the McNamaras . has
been "framed up."

Rappaport and Darrow will each have
a private suite of rooms placed at his
disposal.
A report was current here this morn
ing that Earl Rogers, who acted for the
Merchants A Manufacturers' Assocla-.
tlon during the investigation of the
Times disaster, would be appointed spe
cial prosecutor to work with the Dis
trict Attorney during the trial. Rogers,
however, declined absolutely to say
anything affirming or denying the
rumor.
Rappaport on his arrival waa met at
the Salt Lake station here by Harrlman
and Jobanncen. The two California
men had never seen the Indianapolis
attorney and it remained for a reporter
for the Loa Angeles Tiroes, the paper
whose plant is alleged to have been
destroyed by tha men Rappaport is to
defend, to introduce them.
The attorney went at once to the
Hotel Alexandria, where be waa as
signed to a room In the annex, the
portion of the building under which
dynamite was found less than a year
ago. The building was erected by non
union labor.
"I have come here for information,
not to give any out." aald Rappaport,
a bearded young German, whose merry
blue eyes are laughing, no matter how
serious the subject of the conversa
tion. "I have not had a chance to
have a talk with the men tn Jail and
will probably see them In the morning.
I have Juat had a little chat with tha
men who are to be associated with
me. I don't know bow long I will re
main here, whether I will slay through
the entire fight for liberty and Justifi
cation of my clients or not."
Unless It be otherwise decided by
Rappaport there will be no motions for
change of venue nor any other tech
nical points to delay the trial a

prints of James B. McNamara s thumbs
today. The prints. It is said, will be
sent to Ban Francisco In order to at

Prints of all of McNamaras fingers

FIGHT HELD UNJUST
Senator Stone Declares Reci
procity Will Do No Harm.
GALLINGER IS CRITICAL
Missouri Man Denounces What He
Regards as Propaganda to De
feat Bill TTrged Through Con
gress by President Tafu
WASHINGTON, May L In a three
hours' speech Senator Stone, of Mis
souri. In the Senate today denounced
what he regards an unjust propaganda
to defeat the Canadian reciprocity bllL
The attempt, he said, was being made
to alarm the American people by paint
ing the ruin that would follow the free
Importation of Canadian goods, "the
product of cheap labor."
This .contention, be said, was un
true, and submitted statistics to show
that both labor and livestock were
higher across the border.
When Stone concluded. Senator Gal
linger asserted the Missouri Senator
had proved conclusively that - there
would not be the reduction In the cost
of living Which It had been contended
reciprocity would bring to the United
States. Mr. Stone replied he had not
contended that that reciprocity would
be of great benefit but had undertaken
to show it would work no Injury.
"And yet you give away ten millions
of revenue," Mr. Gallinger retorted.
Mr. Stone urged that the great bene
fit to be derived from entering Into re
ciprocal relations with Canada would
be to encourage free trade with that
country, opening the way to freer
trade with the world. He aald he hoped
to have an opportunity to vote for the
House free list bill.
Mr. Gallinger said the American
wages paid near the boundary line are
from 25 to 30 per cent more than
across the line. He contended that
generally prices were higher In Canada
than In this country.
Messrs. Gallinger, Smoot, Warren,
Jones, Heyburn, Cummins, Martlne,
Bailey and Bacon discussed the range
of prices on dairy cattle.

GRAZING RULES UPHELD
In Two Decisions Court. Says Tncle
Sam May Prohibit Grazing or
Fix Terms for Allowing It.
Stubborn Fight Sacs.
WASHINGTON, May 1. The legal
battle against the forest reserves of
the West In particular and Federal
conservation of' natural resources In
general was lost today In the Supreme
Court of the United States.
That tribunal not only upheld the
constitutionality of the establishment
of the reserves for any National and
publla purpose, but It settled once for
all that the Federal Government and
not the states may say how the re
serves shall be used.
The Immediate results of the decision
are that Fred Light, a Colorado cattle
man, will remain enjoined from allow
ing his cattle to graxe on the Holy
Cross forest reservation In Colorado,
and that Pierre Grlmaud, K. P. Cara
Jous and Antonio In da, California
sheepmen, must answer to the Indict
ment charging them with grazing sheep
upon the sierra forest reserve without
a permit.
'Nation Owns Public Lands.
The subject was dealt with In two
opinions delivered by Justice Lamar.
The entire court concurred. The basic
principle upon which he proceeded was
that "the Nation is an owner and has
made Congress the principal agent to
dispose of Its property."
"The United States can prohibit graz
ing or fix the terms on which its prop
erty may be used." said the Justice in
the Colorado case. "As it can withhold
or reserve the land. It can do so in
definitely. It Is true the United States
do not and cannot hold property as ,a
monarch may for private and personal
purposes. Butthat does not lead to
the conclusion that It la without the
rights Incident to ownership, for the
Constitution declares that 'Congress
shall have power to dispose of and
make all needful rules and regulations
respecting the territory or property be
longing to the United States.'
"All the public land Is held by the
United States In trust for the whole
people and It Is not for the court to say
how that trust shall be administered
that la for Congress to say." ;
Light Makes Stubborn Fight.
Among the defenses made by Light
was the one that the formation of the
Holy Cross reserve, without the con
sent of the State of Colorado, was un
constitutional. Throughout the contest, the Federal
Government claimed that when Light
turned his cattle onto his ranch, ad
Joining the forest reaerve, they fol
lowed well-deflned cattle trails. In or
der to obtain grass and water, directly
to the reserve, where there existed su
perior grass and water supply. Such a
practice, the Government contended,
was tantamount in .law to Light driv
ing the cattle onto the reserve.
The defense pointed out that the re
serve had not been fenced by the Gov
ernment, and a Colorado law provided
that no person should recover damages
for trespass unless the land were
fenced.
The Government retorted that the
fence law applied only to Individuals,
and not to the State of Colorado or to
the United States. If It were meant to
apply to the United States, the law waa
unconstitutional. .
So widespread was the Interest In
the ease and so vital the questions In
volved that the State of Colorado threw
Itself Into the contest. Attorney-Gen-
