M, L PRISONERS IN JAIL. ALLEGED DYNAseTTERS PLACED IN CELLS. Fight for und Against McXamaras and Me.Manigal Will DC Hitter.? State Ready for Trial. Los Angeles, Cal.. April 26.?John J. McNamara, secretary of the Inter? national Bridge and Structural Iron Workers* association; his brother, James B. McNamara, and Ortie E. McManigal, accu3ed of complicity In blowing up of The Times newspaper plant last October, when 21 men were kill-d, are in the Los Angeles iail tonight. They are in separate cells surround by extra guards. All three are charged with murder. Their arrival today in irons from Indianapolis and Chicago signalizes the beginning of a desperate legal struggle. Thus far, however, no def? inite arrangements have been made for the defense. District Attorney John I). Fredericks, who said yester? day that the State was ready to go to trial at once, announced that the formality of arraignment would not await the convenience of the defense. The alleged conspirators arrived at the jail from Pasadena in automobiles after running through two crowds which, in their eagerness to get a glimpse of the prisoners, bore down more than a score of detectives and deputies-. \s James sfcNamara entered an automobile to be tak?n to jail he was seen by Mrs. i>. H, Inaersoll, a San Francisco boarding house keeper with whom J. B. Bryce stayed before The Times explosion. James McNamara. according to de? tectives, is held as Bryce, the man al? leged to have laid the infernal ma? chines that blew up the newspaper plant. Mis. Ingersoll peered into the face of McNamara as he entered the machine. The man was shackled to an otlicer but he kept his unbound hand before his face. hi spite of this Mrs. Ingersoll de? clared afterward that in- was Bryce. No one, however, could have Identi? fied him as Bryce from the printed descriptions sent out alter the In? dictments were found by the grand jury. Mrs, Ingersau will again confront htm in jail tomorrow, At no tune was there evident the least sign id* anger on the part of the crowds or of a disposition to justify the apparent fears of the ofll < rs that an attempt might be made to rescue the prisoners.

Declares Tha: Action Regarding Miss Roers Was Rup to Misunderstanding I of Her Status. Annapolis, Md., April 24.?It was learned today that Capt. J. M. Bow- I yer, superintendent of the naval acad? emy, has forwarded to Miss Mary II. Beers, daughter of Prof. B-eers of Yale, a letter of apology for the action taken by one of the academy officers who suggested to h- r midshipman es? cort that, by reason of her employ? ment, she should not be again invited to an academy dance. The letter was not made public, but it is understood that Miss Been was assured that the action was duo entirely to a misunderstanding o? her status. In connection with the affair it may be said of the body of the midship? men that they were not in sympathy with the attitude apparently assumed by some of the academy officers in this matter. It is the frequently ex? pressed opinion of the cadets that a midshipman has a right to bring any respectable woman to a dance, no matter what her employment or star us may be.

Bishopville, April 20.?The hand-I some Presbyterian church building was dedicated Sunday in the presence of perhaps the largest congregation ever assembled in Bishopville. By in? vitation, the Methodist and Baptist congregations of the town and the Presbyterian congregations of lit. Zion and Hephsibah joined in making this a memorable day. Rev. P. A. Murray of the Methodist church and Rev M. M. Benson of the Baptist church assisted in the services. The dedicatory sermon was preached by Rev. Thos. R. English, D. P., of the Fi ion Theological seminary, Rich? mond, Va. Dr. English is the son of the church's first pastor. The ser? mon was preached from the Gospel of St. John, 6:37. At the conclusion of the sermon the church building was formally dedicated to the service of Clod, in connect.on with which Mrs. M. B. McCutch? n sang a solo, "The King of Love, My Shepherd Is," and the pastor, Rev. Hugh F. Murchison, offered the dedication prayer. The evening service was signalized by celebrating the tercentenary of the King James version of the Eng? lish Bible. Dr. English was at home on this them" for he has been profes? sor of the English Bible Course in Fnion Theological seminary at Rich? mond for a number of years. At thi* service Mrs. Edgar DesChamps sang a beautiful solo as an offertory. A liberal contribution was made by the congregation for the purpose of d i nating a copy of the Scriptures to every prisoner in the county and to purchase a stock of Bibles to be kept on sale for the convenience of the people. This was truly a history-making day, for this church is the first brick church ever erected in this county, and the successor of a nobl? frame structure which had served this con? gregation since 1S40. The building is a handsome structure built of a dark grey brick, trimmed with stone and terra cotta, covered with elate, heated by steam and lighted by elec-j trtcity. The main auditorium is 50 by go feet, the door is bowled and the pewi are arranged in circular form. In addition to the main auditorium there are several class rooms and other conveniences of a modern church. The cost of the church was $22,000. To Mr. Arthur- W. Ham by, architect of Columbia, 8. C, belongs the credit of the design. Tin? Pres? byterians deserve great credit for their liberality In erecting so beautiful and durable a structure. The Bishopville Presbyterian church was organized in by Harmony presbytery and it is interesting to note that two of the original members still lurvive. Mr. a. it. McDonald is now ,.t>! years old and resides In Montgomery, Ala. Mr. Martin Rhodes is about <?o years aid and resides in Camden. During all these years th? church has had only four paab ra, viz.: Rev. Thos. R, English from 1S:;s to 1845; F.- V. W. \V. Wilson fr >m lsis to 1866; Rev. W. a. Gregg from 1867 to 1905, and Rev. Hugh R. Mur I ehlson from 1905 to the present. The Rev. Mr. Gregg las resided here since Iltis retirement and is universally bc l< <\ ed und honon ?1. ! Tin congregation also sustains an interesting rei.ti.ou to the foreign mission field.
