Official Writes to McN'amara Cou-
opming Damage Caused by "High
Wind" to Bridge Says let
ter Was in Good Faith.
INDIANAPOLIS. Pec. 7. Funds con
tributed by the International Associa
tion of Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers to sustain Its strike against
open shop Iron and steel contractors,
whicfr- was begun in 1905 and which
still continues, were investigated In
the cross-examination of witnesses by
the Government in the dynamite con
spiracy trial today. The Government
charges that money was contributed to
promote violence, out of which grew
- the McNamara dynamite plots.
Patrick F. Farrell, of New York,
former member of the union executive
board, testified that $10,000 was con
tributed to the New York district coun
cil of Iron workers on account of a
strike there, but he denied it was used
for Improper purposes.
Organizers Require Money.
Asked about a letter to John J. Mc
Namara, In which, referring to or
ganizers, he said, rit takes gooO, hard
cash to push them along." Farrell re
plied he meant only that the men re
quired pay for the work.
On February 3. 1908. a drawbridge in
construction for the City of New York
in Pelham fell Into the bay because
some of the supporting guys had been
removed. The next day Farrell wrote
to McNamara: "I Inclose a newspaper
clipping about what the high winds
did last night."
The witness said he understood the
wind had blown the structure down.
Two depredations and one explosion
occurred on structural work in and
around .New Tork in the following
April, but Farrell asserted he knew
nothing as to the cause.
Knowledge of Dynamitlne Denied.
"As an official of the International
Union, did you ever appropriate money
Sot buying nitroglycerin or dynamite,
or did you know .McNamara was en
gaged in dynamiting?" asked Senator
John W. Kern for the defense on re
direct examination.
"I never heard of it until McNamara
was arrested."
Andrew J. Gallagher, member of the
Board of Supervisors of San Francisco,
who was secretary of a committee ap
pointed in connection with the Cali
fornia Building Trades Council to
unionize trades In Los Angeles, testified
that he received 115,000. from the iron
workers through Olaf A. .Tveitmoe, a
defendant, and altogether from other
sources he received $19,000 " through
Tveitmoe. After the Los Angeles Times
building was blown up, Gallagher said
he sent Eugene A. Clancy, another de
fendant, to Eastern cities to solicit for
the fund.
Money Sen to Defense Fond.
"Was any part of that strike fund
used to defend the McNamaras in Los
Angeles?" asked District Attorney
Miller.
"About $1000 was lent to the defense
fund, but later it was returned,"- said
Gallagher.
Other witnesses had testified that
when Clancy came East, after the Los
Angeles explosion, he met James B.
McNamara hi Chicago, when the latter
was in hiding and a fugitive on
charges of murder, and that Tveitmoe
met John J. McNamara in a labor con
vention in St. Louis and asked that
other explosions be caused in Los An
geles, as result of which Ortie E.
McManigal caused an explosion in an
iron works in Los Angeles in Decem
ber, 1910.
FAKE SANTAS UNDER BAN
Kansas City Bars Men Masquerading
in St. Jflck's Garb.
KANSAS CITY, Dec 7. To protect
the happy illusions of the city's chil
dren, the police of Kansas City, Kan.,
today ordered that Santa Claus must
stay off the streets there.
"The practice of stores sending out
men dressed out in Santa Claus regalia
has become obnoxious," said Judge Car
lisle, of the Municipal Court, today.
"Besides, children whose parents never
could afford to buy 'them expensive
toys, would meet Santa Claus on the
street and shake bis hand and request
that he deliver a great number of toys
at their homes. , '
" "Sure, I'll bring them to you,' the
obliging Santa would say, but when
Christmas morning came there would
be only disappointment."
