MOREABRESTS IN
DYNAMITE CASES

(Continued from First rage.)
John J. McNamara pleaded guilty to
dynamiting the Llewellyn Iron works
counsel for the defense came to his terms
snd that outside Influences did not pre
vail upon him.
" Men of standing In ths community, he
ssld,' hsd been "up against htm" with
pless that In ths Interest of peace and
society James B. McNamara be allowed
to plead guilty and that the case sgalrwt
hta brother, John J., be dropped. These
pleas, he said, he still steadfastly re
jected. "I told them I was not running so
ciety," he ssld. "Some of the men after
talking It over, expressed their willing
ness to let me handle the matter in my
own way
First Offer la Jaly.
Fredericks declared that since July he
had had an offer from the defenss to let
James B. McNamara plead guilty to save
John J. McNamara.
"A month ago Darrow and 1 1 were
talking in court, half seriously about It.
The court stopped proceedings, so we
quit," he said. "That afternoon Dar
row came to see men and" made virtually
the asms offer and I refused to ac
cept It."
" 'It you ever change your mind, let
me know," Darrow said.
" 'I never will,' I replied. Then parrow
and Lincoln eteffens got together and
Bteffeha went down town to get men to
come to me to urge me to agree to Dar
row'a proposals. The matter was put up
to me but I refused to consider it and.
they did hot urge me. Two days later
soma of them gave me a typewritten
statement and It was practically the
same thing."
It wss at this Juncturs District At
torney Fredericks says he told them be
was not "running society."
"I said I knsw I had the goods," he
coptlnued, "and X didn't propose to He
down. I asked two or three others, also
of the same crowd. If they thought I'd
mads a mistake and they told me they
thought the case was perfectly safe in
my hands.. Meanwhile I had talka with
Darrew and Davis and stood pat that
both men must plead guilty. The mat
ter of punishment did not interest me but
I knew, and counsel for the defense
knew that If J. J. .McNamara wanted to
save the life of his brother he could help
by coming through.
Defense Finally Yields.
"On -Wednesday night the cltlsens bad
another meeting. I knew that the pro
posals were Darrew's and I knsw that 1
had the goods. Thursday, ons ot them
called me up and said soma of them
might come to see me.
" It you have any Influence with them
tell them to run along and tend to their
own business,' .1 said, and they did not
come. Darrow and Davis came again
and said they could not get the Joint con
fession. I told them in that case I'd go
ahead with the trial and that I'd rather
proceed with it anyhow. .
"Finally they said they would take my
terms and both men pleaded guilty. That
Is the history of the negotiations."-
Attorney Davis, who was in the corridor
of the district attorney's office, declined
to comment on Fredericks' statement.
Franklin Case May Be Coatlaaed.
As to Bert II. Franklin, the defense's
Investigator, arrested on a charge ot
bribery, Fredericks said that the termina
tion cf this case might make a readjust
ment In counsel and aald he thought per
haps former Governor Harry T. Oage
as counsel for the defenss might drop out
snd'be replaced by Davis.
"It they ask a continuance Monday
they shall have it," he said.
Ms said he had not determined whether
to recommend .clemency for the Mc
Namaras, but declared that James B.
McNamara would maks a complete state
ment of the affair to the work!.
This statement, he said, might be given
out the day of sentence, which is next
Tuesday.
Asked if it were true that the state hod
obtained from prospective wltnenea
money supposed to have been given them
in such quantities that the' total 'prac
tically equalled the amount of th re
wards offered by the city, state and
county. In all about 100,000, Mr. Fredericks
said It was "more or less true."
