HITS OP ItltASS GAVE CLEW. How Detective Buins Decided Explo sions Wero Duo to Sume Men. Los Angelos, Cal., April 26.-Com parison of bits of brass Boldered on tbe backs of two small alarm clocks gave William J. Burns bis first im portant clew In his pursuit of the men accused of having blown up the building of the Los Angeles Times In this city on tho morning of October 1 last, causing tho death of 21 em ployees of that paper. Two abortive nttompts to oxplode Infernal ma ?hlnest one In Peoria, HI., and tho other here, made posslhlo the com parison which had such Important results for tho detective and spelled doom for the dynamiters. The first Infernal machine was found after an explosion among some steel girders in tho foundry of A. Louis & Sons, in Peoria, 111., Sep tember 4, 1910. .?tomo fault in the mechanism caused the clock-work to fall, and lt passed Into the possession of Burns, to whom was Intrusted the task of finding tho men who caused the explosion. A few hours after the destruction of the Times building lu this city two moro Infernal machines were found-one at the home of Gen. Harrison G. Otis, owner of the Times, and the other nt the home of P, J. Zeohandelaar, secretary of the Mer chants' and Manufacturers' Associa tion, long the implacable foe of tho closed shop. Doini) for Otis Explodes. The device found at the homo of Gen. Otis was hi a suit case, and It exploded an instant after a detective, who was carrying lt away from the building, heard the rattle of tho al i rm. He narrowly escaped death, and the device was blown to frag ments, tearing a great, whole in tho ground. The bomb at Hie ."eehande larr house was recovered Intact, and when Hums was called upon.by the city to undertake an investigation of the Times explosion IL was one of the first things he inspected. It looked like thc mechanism found after the Peoria explosion and comparison showed if to he identical. The device consisted of a small alarm clock, a dry battery, and the nitroglycerin. Tho clock's alarm de Vice was used to lix the time of the explosion. Whoa the ringing of the bell began, the uncoiling spring caus ed the key of tho alarm to revolve. .Soldered to this key was a small piece of brass, and when it ennic in contact with a similar piece on the back of the clock tho electric circuit waa elosod and detonating caps ex ploded the nitre, " cerln. . The brasBwork was tho handiwork of the same men, even though the explosions were many miles apart. Burns began to chock carefully other dynamite explosions as they occur red. In every enso ho gathered evi dence which, he alleges, traces, the explosions to thc three men now be ing hurried to Los Angeles-John B, McNamara, Jamos J. McNamara and Ortie McManlgal. lt ls alleged that James McNamara is the man who was known in San Francisco as "J. B. Bryce," and who negotiated for the explosive used to wreck the Times building when it was purchas ed at Giant, Cal., several weeks be fore the Times was blown up. It ls believed two more men will be ar rested, aside from other arrests, which probably will bo .nade to hold certain persons as witnesses. Trio Indicted in Secret. The two McNamaras and McMani gal were Indicted secretly in this city Saturday. April 15, after Burns had telegraphed n request that such action be taken, accompanied by meager portions of evidence obtain ed. His telegrams were In cipher, and hours were required to trans late them. The grand jurors, who previously had Indicted Bryce, David Kaplan and M. A, Schmidt, reassem bled with tho utmost secrecy and re" turned true bills against tho men Burns was walting to arrest. Tho rewards (hat will be paid If the men are convicted total only $15,000, offered hy the supervisors Of Loa Angeles county-$5,000 for each man. Many ot her rewards were offered following tho destruction of the Times, and nt one Hmo the total was near the $100,000 mark. How over, nine-tenths of Hu so wero not made officially, and hence cannot bo collected. Mayor Alexander and Chief of Po lice Sebastian said to-day that they had received no additional advices from Burns regarding Hie arrests yesterday, or what ls to follow, BO far as tho investigation In Indianapolis is concerned, The Burns coup fol lowed several months of seeming idleness, during which, BO far as Los Angeles know, he was accom plishing nothing. Burns has sent to the mayor as surances that the evidence obtained 1B so conclusive (hat conviction ls certain. Ho says ho will trace tho movements of (he men from tho time they started Wost, showing how they bought tho dynnmtto at Giant, trans ported lt on tho launch Pastime, the name, of which hud been changed for the occasion; stored lt In a house in South San Francisco, bringing only I what they needed to Lo? Angeles, and all of their movements up to the time ono of them slipped into the dark opening in tho Timos' building, known as "ink alley" and placod the ?machine that wrecked the structure, killing 21 employees and injuring two-score or more. How limns Led Search. At tho time of the dynamiting of tile Times plant Burns was In Los Angeles attending tho convention of the American Bankers' Association. Ile was called in by Mayor Alexan der and tho committee of the Mer chants' Association to investigate. Shortly afterward he disappeared for I two motnhs, not even his offices knowing where he was, nor did he communicate with the.n. Ile know that he. was being shadowed, and Schindler asserts that officers of the Iron Workers' Association called Up ! his various offices to find where he was. Some of bis efforts at this time were to throw off "shadows." He next located the three men ol the launch Pastime in a furnished room in the Mission district of San Francisco. From the landlady herc ho obtained a still better descriptior of the throe. He found In the roon a papor that contained tho outside wrappings of fuses, and a large trunl left by the three. This trunk Burni considers of importance in this case Worked In Cldcago. At the end of these two months hi was practically sure of two of hi men. He found J. W. McNamara ii Chicago. McManlgal, who, it is al loged, passed under the name of Kap lan, was with McNamara. They live in a room on the South Side, nu hung out in certain saloons and dane halls. From time to time the me would jump into Pennsylvania, Ohle to Indianapolis, Pittsburg, Clev< land and elsewhere. Some dynamlt blow-up always followed these llttl jaunts, the detectives charge. Burn; men forestalled the destruction of new bridge In Kansas City by arri' lng on the scene, and grabbing tl clock arrangement. The clock fenn on this occasion will he used 1: Burns nt. Hie trial In California I show how these jobs are done. Always after these little trips tl two men, it ls charged, would tm up in Chicago with plenty of moue buring their stay in Chicago tl watch was slightly relaxed, as Buri knows that a man cannot be shadow ed long without realizing lt. Win they seemed ready to start out th was another matter. Wrote to J. J, McNamara. Burns asserts that McNamara ai McManlgal had correspondence wi John J. McNamara, the secretary the Iron Workers' Association, in I dlanapolis. On April 1 1 last twelve yeggs we arrested In Toledo, Ohio, for ban breaking. This was the cue for Hr mond J, Burns, son of William to arrest McNamara and McManlj. In Detroit next day on two "Jo Doo" warrants. The pair were lei lng a hotel in the evening with dress suit case filled, lt is alleg< with dynamite and time-clock api rains. The bank robbery chari enabled Raymond Burns to take t two men to Chicago, as they slgnlfl their willingness to go, without glvi warning of the real cause of the rest. Burns wanted to get them Chicago because Foliuc Sergt. Hoss: was going to that, city with the req sltlon i>apers from Governor .lol son, of California, made out for I State of Illinois. There they w taken and held until Burna \ ready to arrest John J. McNamara Indianapolis, which took place Tu day. Burns says that the men bom dynamite in several different pla -In Annapolis, Md.; some near C clnnatl, and some In 111 nols. He ii considers thai he has evidence connect the two men, James W. I ?amara and Ortie B. McMani) with several other explosions and nam!te o'i'rages. Prisoners Now in California. Los Angeles. April 27.- -Ilea manacled and guarded bj eight i cors, John J.

Tho Guttouburg Bible, First Book Printed from Movable Type. New York, April 2 1.-The first book ever printed from movable type to-night brought tho hit best price ever paid for any book. The book v/as the Outtenburg Bible, the purchaser Henry E. Huntington, ot Los Angeles, and the price $50,000. Tho purchase was made at the opening session to-night of the salo of the library of tho late Robert Hoe, the largest public auction salo of books ever attempted. Experts have estimated the collection to be worth more than a million dollars, and wealthy amateurs and dealers from Europe have como to vie with the American collectors in the bidding. It wns evident from the progress of tho sale to-night that American bid ders were taking the cream of the offerings at prices averaging higher than any ever offered nt a public book auction. The highest price previously paid for the Outtenburg Bible was $20, 000, at which Bernard Quarltch pur chased lt in England fourteen years ago. At a private salo he disposed of it shortly afterward to Mr. Hoe at | a profit of $2,500, and it bas re mained in the Hoe collection ever since. The copy was printed some time between 1450 and 1455. Bidding for the treasured book was spirited, with Bernard Quarlth, son of the former owner, participat ing until the bids passed the $21, 000 mark. From there it jumped by thousands at a clip to $4 5,000. At $49,000, P. A. B. Widener, of Phila delphia, who had been the most de termined of tho runners up, drop ped out of tho race and the even $50,000 was bid by Mr. Huntington. The winner ls a son of the late Col lis P.
