A clock kT turned on tlrna too many, a main spring- wound too tlht. are. according to the contention of the prosecution, the trlflrs responsible for the fact that John J.

Clarence S. Irr and the nt'ver attorneys engaged In the defense of the MrNimi'K. howerer. are confident tiiat they wl.l be able to rend asunder tne case of tie prosecution, an.

This bomb that did not explode and which was found beside the house of Fell Zeehandelaar. an official of the Angeles Merchants'and Manufactur. era' Association, has supplied the clew hat has solved, at least to the satis faction of the prosecution, the mvstery .f hw the building of the Lo Angeles Times wa. destroyed. The clew Is traced back to the Mc Namara brothers through a chain of alleged circumstances and facts. The casa of the state, however, has been described by one of tha attorney for th defense as "a flimsy fabric of cir cumstances.' and nothing so far has developed to show that the prosecution any direct evidence to prova that James R. MrNamiu set the bombs at tha Times building, snd at the homes of Oeneral Harrison Orer Otis, the pro prietor of the Times, and Mr. Zee handelaar. Nothing on this point ap peara In tha transcript of evldenca likes before the grand Jury. The -workings" of an alleged con spiracy, born of hale engendered by tha Industrial strife between union workers and employers In tha struc tural steel trade, are said to have been laid bar by the state. wrwaalaal kief A era see. ftcttves working on the case went first to San Krancisco and thence east to Indianapolis and Into tha offices of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Ironworkers, of which John J- McNamara was. and still la secretary-treasurer. As the cap sheaf of the case same tha confession of Ortla E McManlgal. and when the Me Namaras are brought to bar nut Wed nesday they will find this man their chief accuser. But on the other side on the side of the defense will be McManlgal' wife. Mrs. Kmma McManlgal. who once. t least, caused her husband to waver, and over whom for several week both defense and prosecution struggled for tha benefit f her favor and whatever testimony she might have to render. Sh defied the grand jurr. won In con tempt proceedtnga brought against her because sh had refused to answer ouest'ons In fir Inquisitorial chimher. and InrlJentally. through the attorneys for the MrNamaras. made public the confession In which her husband ac cused John J. McNamara of being the master conspirator, and his brother James his chief Instrument. tardea s( IT oaf Wlla State. The ruins of the Times building were still emitting clouds of smoke and steam on the morning of October I. a hen the throngs of spectators were given additional fright by news that an lnfrpal machine had been found under a dormer window at the home of Fell Zeehandelaar. who. as secre tary of the Merchants' and Manufactur ers Association, had been active In an "open shop" campaign In this city. Fright became panic a few minutes Utrr when word wa sent to police headquarters that another bomb had been found at the residence of tleneral Harrison flree Otis, proprietor of the Times. The burden of proof against the Mc Namara brothers lies on the state, and ss far ss the rase has developed, the prosecution apparently must rely, aside from evpert testlmory. upon four main point! of reputed fart to prove that James R McNamara. a tbe Instrument, and John J. as directing head of a conspiracy, were responsible for the de struction of the Times building an. I the deaths of the victims. These points are- The alleged fact thst James B. Mc Namara was In San Francisco at the time 100 pounds of high-power el- plosives were purchased from a powder company- "Aaaaea Tell af Tree. The alleged fart that he was In Los Angeles, a few hours before t!ie blow ing no of the Times. That be actually set t!e bomb which reused tha disaster, and likewise planted the bombs at the homes of Gen eral Otis and Fell. Zeehandelaar. And that he committed the crime at the behest and under the direction of John J. MrNamara. A day or two after the disaster the jetecttves working In Sin FTanrtsew were told that three men who gar tha aaraee of Itrvson. Morris and l.eonard had purchased, on September S. 11. ! pounds of Jt per cant gelatin" from tne company whose label waa on !ha dynamite In the Zeehandelaar bomb.

But a committee named by the State Building Trades t ouncu. then In session In Los Angeles, re ported that the Times building had been blown up by gaa. Burns, had been engaged trpon the Investigation of the dynamise outrage In th fcast for a month before the Times building was blown up. And her again a trivial thing proved of the greatest Importance. A handful of sawdust, of peculiar color and cut. found In a box near another unexidoded bomb which was picked up after an explosion in tne railroad yard at test I'eorla. 111., led to the discovery that a man named J. w.
