UNION TO FIGHT CASE
TO THE LAST DITCH
Darrow Contends That McNamara's
Rights Have Been Invaded
Much Interest in Case.
INDIANAPOLIS Ind., April 20. De
termined to fight to thu last ditch for
John J. McNamara, International secre
tary of the Structural Iron Workors, oa
rused of Inspiring dynnnilto explosions
In Los Angeles, labor lenders hero today
launched a plan to undo the so-called
"kidnaping" of McNamara, und forco his
return here from tho California city.
Acting on advice by Claronco Darrow,
whoso work acquitted) Moyer, Haywood
and Pettlbono of charges of inspiring
tho assassination of Former Governor
Stcuenenborg of Idaho, telegrams were
sent to congressman Korbly and Sena
tors Shlvnly and Kern of Indiana, ask
ing them to Introduce resolutions In con
gress to Investigate tho details of the
manner In which McNamara was spirited
out of Indianapolis und rushed to the
west.
Burn Before Grand Jury.
As a part of this plan, Detective "Wil
liam J. UturiiH. who was arrested horo last
night charged with having Inspired Me
Numuru's kidnaping, was taken beforo
thu grand Jury today nnd Is expected to
reveal to thoso Inqulstors In full tho
developments which led to tho removal
of McNamara. It Is probablo that tho
grand Jury will first hear all evidence
from Burns regarding tho alleged find
ing of dynamite beforo considering the
kidnaping proper.
Legal ovports here declare that Dur
vow's plan to forco tho return of Mc
Namara from Los Angeles Is entirely
feasible. Tho fact that It Is not con-
tended -thnratcNamura was. In .California

labor leader to trial In tho California
courts.
nights Should Be Restored.
Darrow's contention will bo that, as
MeNomnra's rights hnvo boon Invaded,
It Is only Just that ho should be restor
ed to his position beforo tho law prior
to that Invasion. Then, tho labor coun
sel bolleves, It would be impossible un
der the circumstances to get McNumura
to California unless tho whole rnso of
the prosecution wero first exposed hero
nnd It wero shown boyond n doubt that
tho accused man, nt least on tho face
of things, was connected with the crlmo.
Courso Not Outlined.
Just what legal stops will be taken to
force McNamara's return has not yot
developed. If nt tho grand Jury hearing
today Detective Hums Is unnhlo to so
clearly Justify bis course as to oscapo
Indlctmont for kidnaping, tho way of
counsel for tho labor men will ho com
partltlvoly clear. If Hums Is Indicted
