McManigal Tells How Dyna
miter Planned to Set Pur
suers Off Track.
ONE JOB BRINGS CENSURE
Chief Conspirator Vexed Because oi
Failure to Cause Explosion Ex
actly at Hour Agreed on
With J. B. McXamara.
INDIANAPOLIS. Not. 12. Explosions
Bn non-union Iron -works In Milwau
tee, Omaha and Springfield, Mass.,
were explained by Ortle E. McManigal
it the dynamite conspiracy trial to
lay as having been done by him shortly
before he and James B. McNamara, ar
Hving in Detroit to "clean up" that
Itv. were arrested with suitcases
Tilled with dynamite.
For weeks before his arrest, ho tes
tified, he had observed he was being
followed, and had seen strange heads
lodging around the corners of elevator
shafts In the Iron workers" neaaquar
lers in Indianapolis.
"I told James B. before we started
for Detroit that William J. Burns had
lotectives after us, that detectives were
ven coming up near the vault where
we stored the dynamite, and that one
f them followed me on the street when
I was going with a suitcase of dyna
mite to blow up the South Chicago Job,"
laid McManigal.
Bomb for Burns Sna-gested.
"McNamara said If we saw any more
f Ihem we would go to Chicago and
rent a room next to Burns' office, put
In electric wire through the walls and
irrange to set off a bomb at Burna'
leak when he was sitting there. 'That
a-ould end our troubles with him," he
laid. I told him I did not think we
rould ever do anything of the kind, or
et Mr. Burns. That was anout April
f, 1911," McManigal said. He and Mc
Kamara were arrested seven days later.
For blowing up an unloading hoist
nd damaging a steamer near the
locks in Milwaukee on March 1. with
i loss of $50,000, McManigal said he
iccelved the compliments of John J.
lcXamara for the best Job he ever did.
When he destroyed part of the Doug
as County Courthouse at Omaha on
Jaroh 24 he said he was "called down"
iecause he did not cause the explosion
,t exactly the same hour that James B.
Hew up a job at Columbus, Ind., a
vlegraph signal having been arranged
0 send word when he was ready to
tohn J. at Indianapolis.'
Bombs Pitt I'nder Tower.
At John J. McNamara's instructions,
(cManigal said he went to Springfield,
Jase., and there met Michael J. Young,
ie union official at Boston, who
nlnted out a tower in the group of
nunicipal buildings he wanted
ilown up.
"Young told me to lay the tower flat
in the ground," testified McManigal.
He said he had had some trouble with
lie foreman, but I said I bad not come
clean up any person, but to blow up
1 job. He also told me $50 he had sent
ne in care of Frank C. Webb in New
fork was a present, and that Herbert
t. Hocktn, who took that amount out
if my pay, had no right to It.
"I put two bombB in the tower on
Vpril J and took a train for Uttca. N.
r. At Utlca I examined a vest pocket
run. James B. had told me that M. A.
khmidt. who helped him on the Pa
iific Coast, used to carry a small gun
n his teeth so he could shoot quickly,
rlthout reaching to his pockets when
le was doing a job. Then I went to
tochester. N. Y-. and bought a doien
ilarm clocks to be used in making
tombs.
Four Jobs Mapped Oof.
"After I returned to Indianapolis we
napped out the four Jobs to be blown
ip In Detroit. J. J. said we were to
cceive $200 for each job. I went to
Detroit to look over the ground, pur
chasing a map of the city, on which I
narked the location of the American
Jrldge Company, the Detroit Bridge &
Ton Works and two other iron works
.hat were to be blown up the same
lieht.
"I then went to Chicago to visit my
lome. There I met R. H. Houlihan,
ecretary of the local union. I asked
lim whether he had heard the news
ibout the Columbus, Ind., firm going to
in ionize their Jobs thereafter and were
;oing to use only union men In con
crete work at Oklahoma City, Okla.
le replied: 'More power to. the rough
:ang."
"On April 11 I left for Toledo to meet
Tames B. at the station there. The
lext day we went to Detroit and were
irrested."
McManigal testified that he and
Tames B. had the promise of $300 for
causing an explosion at South Chicago
n February 24 and that they were
nable to place the bombs near enough
x the plant because of the glare of
tearby furnaces.
Chiracs I.oral Expected to Par.
"We complained to J. J. about not
ratting our money," said the witness.
He answered he was waiting to re
vive the payment from Chicago Local,
so. 1, but he thought they would not
ay $300 for putting a bomb near a
!ence.
Joseph Schwartz, who was arrested
iitiay, charged with attempting to ob
it ruct justice by Intimidating Corne
ius L. Crowley, of Monica, Pa., a wit
less, was locked in Jail after a pre
iininary hearing before a t'nited
itRtes commissioner.
Kobcrt J. Foster, a detective, and
Trowley testified before the oommls
noncr that Schwartz had told the wit
less he did not need to tell the truth
f ho did not want to.
They asserted Schwartz, on learning
Trowley was to testify concerning
titro-giycerin bidden at Rochester, Pa.,
irced him not to appear.
"He said no court could make him
squeal." said Foster. "He talked
bout the gunmen found guilty in New
fork and said they did not squeal."
Ichwartz, who said ho lived In Chi
atco, testified he remarked only he
would rather have his heart' cut out
lian bo McManigal."
Ho was held to the Federal grand
tiry.

ake care of myself in these things. I
ame here especially to avoid photog-

with which she was engaged yesterday
has jiot been confirmed.
Loidus Bipeeta Compromise
The best opinion in London is that a
compromise will be effected by the
belligerents and that the powers are
using their good offices behind the
scenes with this end In view.
Reports from Sofia say Turkey's re
jection of the proferred terms for an
armistice occasioned no surprise there.
Threil Bulgarians, representing the
three northern kingdoms, have started
for the front with the expectation of
meeting the Turkish peace plenipoten
tiaries.
A cessation of hostilities Is not nec
essarily expected to follow the de
parture of the representatives of the
allies on the mission of peace. What
ever basis for an armistice" may be
reached, it is expected it will leave In
abeyance the amount of territory Tur
key' will be permitted to retain. The
compact, it is believed, will Include
Bulgaria's renunciation of intention to
enter Constantinople.
Albanians to Declare Indepeadeace.
Reports from Vienna announce 'that
Albanians will proclaim their inde
pendence tomorrow at Duraszo, from
which place the Servians are within a
five or six days' march. Vienna re
ports are that there will be a. Joint
Italian and Austrian naval demonstra
tion off that port.
The visit of the Austrian Crown
Prince upon Emperor William, which
Is officially stated to be for the pur
pose of keeping a long-standing shoot
ing engagement, and a Berlin dispatch
saying the Austrian Field Marshal, Von
Schemua, spent the day there in con
sultation with General Count Moltke,
chief of staff of the German army, kept
alive speculation concerning the plans
of the triple alliance.
No diplomatic secret was ever better
kept than the terms of the Balkan al
liance, but signs of differences over a
division of spoils are cropping out. The
Greek semi-official press says that the
issue of . the war would have been
greatly different except for the Im
mense services of the Greek fleet In
preventing 200,000 Turks from Asia
Minor from joining the army In Thrace.
The contention also Is raised that
the Greek army and navy have accom
plished as much as the three other
allies combined.
SKIRMTSHIVG
IS
RESUMED
Turk Reports Thousands of Bulgar
ians Dead on Held.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Nov. 22. The
latest Information from Turkish army
headquarters la that there was only
slight skirmishing today and several
unimportant outpost fights. No men
tion is made in the dispatches of the
armistice pour parleurs. and It Is un
derstood they have not yet been re
sumed. A dispatch today from Nazlm Pasha,
the Turkish generalissimo, says:
"There was a slight cannonade on
our right wing today. The enemy's
battery in the environs of Ezzeddln
fired on our works at Mektebbarbich,
to which our batteries replied. In re
connalsances on the left wing, we col
lected a quantity of army effects aban
doned by the enemy. The Bulgarians
also bombarded Biyuk Chekmeydie, on
the Sea of Marmora, firing 80 shells.
The fleet replied and silenced the ene
my's guns.
"Last night our reconnaissances ad
vanced as far as the village of Ezzed
dln and drove back the enemy, inflict
ing a heavy loss and silencing artillery
posted on the heights near the village.
At intervals this morning the enemy's
batteries in the environs of Ezzeddln
reopened fire, but the effects of the
cannonade were unimportant."
Another telegram sent by Nazim
Pasha at 9 o'clock tonight says re
connaissances by his men within a
radius of four or five miles from the
center of the Tchatalja lines showed
the ground littered with the bodies of
several thousand Bulgarians.
During the last week strict precau
tions have been taken to exclude war
correspondents and sightseers from the
Tchatalja lines. Mounted gendarmes
have arrested all persons visiting that
vicinity and sent them back to Con
stantinople. Gendarmes were even
posted at the-gates of the city to pre
vent the exit of sightseers. Neverthe
less, In a few instances, generally by
disguising themselves as Turkish of-
flcrs, war correspondents have been
able to escape this vigilance, but only
for short periods..
Arrests of members of the Young
Turk party continue. The latest include
Djelal Halri and Deajmeaam, ex-Ann-lsters
of the Interior, and Evkaf, ex-
Mlnlster of War.
Franz Ferdinand Meets Kaiser.

ference with Emperor AVilliam concern

The entire family is deeply inter

plan in operation in
Hie Addition with Character
We have the b6st building plan that has ever been devised in
Portland. It insures the faithful performance of the building
contract and is the very essence of economy.
Our plan is this: You select your lot and decide upon the type
of house you want. We will have our architect draw your plans,
then we will take charge of the construction, look after every
detail, build the house exactly as you want it, give you your full
money's worth and turn the house over to you a finished job;
you to make us a cash payment of only about 10 per cent of the
value of the property. The remainder you can pay in monthly
installments, which will amount to very little more than your rent.
This simply means that you get a new home, built after your
own ideas, in your own way, without any of the annoyances of
mechanics' liens and dishonest contractors. We will relieve you
of all the worry and stand between you and all loss.
We will build you a home in Laurelhurst cheaper than you
can get one built anywhere else. We buy material in large
quantities and get big discounts, and you will get the advantage
of these discounts. We employ only the best mechanics.
. Come around to our office at 270 Stark street, in the Rail
way Exchange building, and let us explain our plan to you fully.
