-There'll be no statement." were the
words wnlch went around. Rumors of
a complete readjustment of the situa

prt of the prosecution against persons
not yet named io any criminal connec

Meanwhile In the Jail Jamea B. Mc
Namara aat wlta a block of scratch
paper on hla knee, writing hla own
confession, more or less In hla own
way. Me did It deliberately, with care
as to the forming of the letters, for
-J. B." does not take to writing a.
easily as hla brother, and this waa the
supreme document of bis life. When
he had done, he passed It to Darrow.
who read It. with Davis looking on. and
handed it to Frederlcha.
The namea of the witnesses were at
tached and Fredericks buttoned his
coat over a single sheet of paper bear
" in perhaps Jt words.
The brother, nodded to Jailer Gal
laicher and filed back Into their cells,
saying good-bye to the attorneys.
Jn this connection Fredericks as
serted that he asked no more arrests
at present anyway, and there the mat
ter stood tonight, with opinion about
equally divided aa to whether later de
velopmenta would force the District
Attorney, regardless of his own pref
erences and atmply as a public officer,
to proceed against men for whom he
- holds the highest admiration.
It waa reported early tonight that
by agreement of counsel the McNa
maraa would be aentenced tonight In
' atead of tomorrow. Attorney Darrow
denied thla. as did Judge BordwelL

A hundred other reports swirled about
the Jail where the McNamara. .watted
the dawning of a day which. It waa
expected, would see them well on the
way to the penitentiary before nlght-

ThJ. latter statement could not be con
firmed here.
Malcolm McLaren, apeclal representa

naked If the reward of f I&00, offered
by the committee ahortly after the
dynamiting of the Los Angeles Time,
took place would be paid, said:
-The reward waa not offered on the
spur of the moment. The committee
decided only after great deliberation
to reward the captors of the parties re
sponsible for the deed, and having of
fered the reward, we will aurely live
up to our promise. It may be a bitter
pill for some of the members of the
committee to awallow to turn the
money over to Detective Burna.
The San Francisco Labor Council.
of which I am also secretary, does not
offer any reward but to the best of my
recollection the California State Build

of $5000."
P. H. McCarthy, president of the State

that he wa. not sure of the statue of
the reward offered by that body and
added that aa he was not familiar with

ERECTORS AFTER 'HIGHER-CP
Drew Paints McXamaras as Mere
Tools of Labor Leaders.
NEW TORK. Dec 4. In behalf of
the National Erectors' Association,
which employed W. J. Burns to run
down the perpetrator, of the Los Ange
les Time, outrages, Walter Drew, as
counsel. Issued a statement here to
night urging that the McNamaras
"make a frank and full confession."
Mr. Drew say. among other things,
that he doubta the sincerity of labor
In urging extreme punishment and
Indicates that those who take this atti
tude have an ulterior motive.
Mr. Drew Issued the-statement In the
form of a telegram he had sent to J. D.
Fredericks, District Attorney at Los
Angeles. The telegram reads:
"I note the many statements from
labor leader, repudiating the McNa
maraa, and demanding the Infliction
upon them of the extreme penalty of
the law. A. you know, I am counsel
for a group of employers who have been
among the chief sufferers at the hands
of these men. and am, perhaps, as fa
miliar as any one with the series of
dynamite outrages In which they -took
part. I deem It my duty to say to you
In order that In your discretion you
may advise the court:
"First No human life has been de
stroyed by any other explosion trace
able to these men. nor do I know of
any such explosion that was apparently
planned with the purpose of taking
life, though in some Instances a disre
gard of such possible consequences waa
shown.
"Second The National Erectors' As
sociation does not Join In the demand
for the death penalty for the younger
McNamara. believing him the weak,
paid tool of the others and his actions
the natural consequence of the doc
trines tuught by men who now repudi
ate htm. We believe the punishment
of both these brothers Is secondary in
Importance to the corruption of men
behind them and we sincerely hope they
will take advantsfo of the Opportunity
now presented to perform a signal
service for society by making full and
frank confession.
"Third Inasmuch as some of the de
mands for extreme punishment come
from men who must have known of
the guilt of the McNamaraa and one of
whom at least I know to be Impli
cated In several outrage, with them,
I sincerely doubt that such demands are
being made with the sole desire of
aiding the ends of full and complete
Justice." '
Mr. Drew reiterated this evening
that he believed between 20 and 30
labor leaders would be Indicted as the
result of the Federal Investigation now
under way at Indianapolis, and aald
the ramifications of the Inquiry would
extend from Boston to the Pacific
Coast.
-I have no Information which would
lead me to believe that Samuel Gom
pers was not sincere In his stand In
the McNamara case." said Drew. "I
don't aay that Gompers Is guilty of any
crime or has guilty knowledge of any
crime."
GOMPERS BRANDED "UXSAFE"
United States Attorney In Inlianar-

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., Deo. 4. "An
earnest effort will be made by the Gov
ernment to bring to Justice every man
who was Involved In the most damnable
conspiracy ever entered Into In this
country," said United Statea District
Attorney Miller today. In discussing the
Federal grand Jury's Investigation of
dynamiting operations of the Mc
Namara brother, and other, alleged to
have been associated with them.
Samuel Gompera, president of the
American Federation of Labor, was
characterized as an "unsafe leader" by
Miller, who said It waa time for labor
leaders "who stand on honest ground
to take charge of labor organizations."
"The Investigation now being made
by the Government will be thorough
and complete." continued Mr. Miller.
"The people are entitled to know all
the facts, and all the facta will be
known at the proper time. It Is not a
part of my duty to discuss the details.
The time la at band for me to act.
-There Is na oocaslOA for aay person
to be misled by false Issues. This la
not a contest between capital and labor.
Capitalist, and laborer who believe In
law and order must and will stand to
gether. "Such unsafe leaders as Gompers
muat be retired. Let men who stand
on honest ground come to the .front.
The destruction of life and property
muat cease.. Act. of force and violence
must cease, and all vlolatora muat be
brought to Justice."

The resolution also urged that no

CANADIANS SAVE THEIR CASH
Confession of McXamara Excuses
Them From Tax for Defense Fund.
OTTAWA Ont. Deo. 4. (Special.)
Canadian union men are protesting
most vigorously at the McNamara con
fession. The International Typographi
cal Union, the largest In Ottawa, haa
decided they will not pay the 25 cents
per head voluntary tax they were going
to contribute to the McNamara fund.
At the International Typographical
Union convention In San Francisco It
waa decided to pay thla tax, and the
money was to be collected and for
warded to San Francisco, but Just
when it waa duo the prisoners con
fessed.
.It is estimated that If the Mc
Namaras had delayed their confession
a week or so longer, probably $2000
would have been contributed here, as
some unions were charging a dollar
per man.

Bares Facts to Officers.
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 4. Sensational
developments today In connection with
the McNamara case included the pub
lication of the deposition of Mrs. Rob
ert F. Bain, made to the District At
torney, that at the Instance of Bert H.
Franklln. Investigator of the McNa
mara defenae. now charged with brib
ery, she persuaded her husband, 'a
talesman on the McNamara Jury, to ac
cept $4000 If he would make sure that
a verdict of guilty would not be' given
and that $500 of this money actually
was paid over.
"I can't get back any honor," she
said her aged husband declared when
It waa suggested that he could return
the money.
Bain Is a Civil War veteran.' His
great-grandfather fought In the War
of the Revolution and captured a Brit
ish drum In the fight with the troops
of General Burgoyne. This drum still
Is In the family and Bain beat It In
the parades which preceded the elec
tion of District Attorney Fredericks.
A continuance was asked and grant
ed In the case of Franklin, the in
vestigator, when It came up today for
preliminary hearing before Justice W.
A. Young.
Ex-Governor Henry T. Gage, Frank
lin's counsel, made a speech express
ing his hope that within a week the
District Attorney would find the
charges against Franklin baseless. He
dwelt upon the vast amounts of money
pent by nations over the seaa In spy-ins-
on their citizens and declared that
In America, "this land of alleged free
dom of opportunity," there Is coming to
exist a like state of affairs. Such
prosecutions, he likened to "retail war."
W. Joseph Ford, assistant District
Attorney, agreed to a continuance for
one week and this was ordered by the
court.
Franklin, learning today of rumors
that he had confessed, stoutly denied
that he had done so. Around his case
centers Interest of great magnitude
and Its decision may determine the
fate of men whose liberty tonight lies
on scales that a hair may tilt.
Complicated by a municipal election
to take place tomorrow In which Job
Harrlman, one of the counsel for the
defense. Is the Socialist candidate for
Mayor, and Joseph Scott, also of coun
sel. Is running on tbe Good Government
ticket for membership of the School
Board, where be is now president, the
case will be Interesting.
It Is said that Harrlman was ar
rested. He was found at the Socialist
headquarters and no one found any
particular -source for this report, which
had gained wide circulation.
The District Attorney gave out the
text of Mrs. Bain's sworn statement. It
was a stenographic report of the con
ference between Mrs. Bain and A. J.
Hill, a deputy District Attorney, last
Friday and to it Mrs. Dora F. Bain
signed her name. It Is In part:
Mrs. Bain On Friday. October 6. a
man came In an automobile. He said.
"I am Bert Franklin; don't you remem
ber me?" I aald, no. "Well." he said, "I
think. Mrs. Bain. I can help you. I
think I can put you . and Bob In a
position to pay for your little home
and live easy for the rest of your life."
I aays, "You can?" He said. "Yes." I
asked. "How Is that?" and he said.
-You know what I meanT" I said, "No;
unless you want him to do election I
work. He says. No, not that; you
know Bob has been summoned on the
Jury?"
Mr. F:il Did he use the word, "sum
moned?" Mrs. Bain I do not know whether he
said -summoned" or "subpenaed." I
know he used the word eubpena and
be asked If Bob had got his subpena.
I said I did not want Lob to serve on
the Jury and that I knew that he would
not be qua'lfied and he said. -Why?" I
said that in the first place Bob vu a

If Bob haii expressed an opinion cf J
any kind. I aald. No. Bob is a very
quiet man and has never spoken of the
case In that way." He eaya. "Well. I
want him to serve on that Jury. I will
make It worth while." He aays: "In
tbe first place If be will serve on that
Jury I will give him $500. That is to
qualify. You know they are going to
railroad those men. They are spending
all kinds of money buying up wit
nesses and Jurors and I can put you
and Mr. Bain on Easy street and help
myself, too. Tbe rest are doing it and
we might as well do It, too. Then
afterwards." he said, "have Bob qualify
and vote an acquittal and there will be

WIDER ALBERTA VOTED FOR
Owners Also Would Recall Maguire
If lie Blocks Improvement.
That proceedings for the widening of
Alberta street, between Union and
Vernon avenues, should be pressed was
voted last night by property owners
who met at Union avenue and Alberta
street. It was 'also voted to demand
the recall of Councilman Magulre if
he obstructs the movement in any way.
A special committee was appointed
to visit those who have remonstrated
against the assessment east of Vernon

NATURE'S CURE FOR
CHRONIC ULCERS
finiir V,tt rmtmnmr the cause can
any chronic Ulcer or Old Sore be
cured. No one will question the
truthfulness of this statement. The
cause is always from an inward source,
an nntward influence, and there?
fore the only possible way to get rid
. , 1 . 4... i.l.A
i-e-.f-m-.nt Pure blood is the One
unfailing; cure for chronic ulcers;
!ust a9 long as the circulation is al
owed to remain in an impure condi
tion the place will be kept open fron
the constant discharge of impurities
Into it from the blood. But pure
blood will change this condition and
the flesh tissues will be nourished
and made healthy, and then nature
will promptly and permanently heal
the ulcer. S. S. S. is recognized as
the greatest of all blood purifiers and
therein lies its power to cure old
nlcers and sores. It goes into the
circulation, and removes every trace
of impurity or infectious matter, and
bo enriches this vital fluid that it
nourishes all flesh, tissues instead of
irritating them with impurities.
When S. S. S. has cleansed the blood
and the place has healed over it i3
not a surface cure, but the nicer is
filled in with healthy flesh from the
bottom. Free book and any medical
advice will be sent to all sufferers who
will write us. S. S. S. is for sale at
drug stores.
