McNamara, confessed murderer and his brother, John' J. McNamarajeon-fessed faced today the legal outcome of their own pleas of guilty in sentences "determined for them by Judge Walter Bordwell. This ended the, state's successful effort to isolate from society the man Oct. 1, 1910, blew up the Los Angeles Times building, causing the loss of 21 lives and the dynamiter of the Llewellyn Iron Works, at which the explosion occurred last Christmas day. For both men District Attorney Jno.

D. Fredericks desired clemency life imprisonment being sought for James and a sentence of between 14 and 20 years for John J.the older brother, to whom this sentence means old age when he should regain his liberty. When the announcement of the proposed plea for clemency came, the'in: formation was that the brothers had furnished information of great value in the investigation of an alleged far reaching dynamiting conspiracy and that the plan was to serve them immediately after sentence with summons to appear before the Federal grand jury, now in session here. To that body they are expected' to give evidence which the district attorney declared they already had supplied to him and any more that they may have. It is the belief of the state officials that both will give to the inquisitors all the information they may have bearing jupon the investigation.

Whether they would appear before that" body today was not certain. The grand jury inquisition is considered here of vast consequence. Its inquiry, it is believed, will reach to the Atlantic seaboard, and in' connection with an- investigation now in progress In Indianapolis, it is believed to constitute one of the greatest probes along criminal lines ever con-! ducted. Its search admittedly is for an actual head or heads to be held responsible for the long list of dynamited structural iron wrorks reaching from coast to coast, the' intent of the search being to learn whether those all were directed by one management, and if so, what that management was. In none of these explosions except that of the Los Angeles Times build ing was any life lost and for this rea son the Times tragedy stirred the na tion perhaps more than all the others combined.

On the other hand James B. Mc Namara, who dynamited the Times, is considered by the state to have been actively under orders and his broth er, John J. McNamara, although at man of greater inerests and infinitely wider grasp of affairs, which made him sec retary of the international Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers, also may have had his instructions from men higher up. 'What effect the recommendations of the district attorney may have is known only to- Judge Walter Bord well, who has presided during the eight weeks James B. McNamara has been on trial.

"Of course the matter of sentences Is entirely within the discretion of the court," declared the district attorney today before court convened. "But I shall recommend i nthe case of James the extreme penalty is -deaths that this not be inflicted. In the case of John where the extreme penal ty Is life imprisonment I shall recommend a sentence which in my opin: ion will meet the ends of justice that is a sentence, which when completed, will make him an old man, as he Is now about 45 years old. The Mc- Namaras already have rendered valuable services to the state and I will make mention of that." "Have more details than the text' of the confession of James B. contains been given you?" he was asked.

"Yes, our conference we talked UVC1 CL IUC 1 Ullti ed much about dates, hours and places, all of which cannot be discussed now but obviously will be of. value to the federal authorities in their Investigation." The district attorney declared that the taking of testimony by the federal grand jury would include not'only that of the McNamaras but Ortie E. Mc-Manieral as well. The trial of James- B. McNamara and his brother.

John was called October 11th. Nineteen indictments, each, charging murder had been returned by the grand jury against the brothers and for a time it was said that they would be tried together. The defense, however, elected to go to trial separately and the state chose James B. McNamara to be tried first. Twelve venires were called to get jurors tor the case.

WJien on last.Fri-M day the dramatic plea 01 gumy umsi upon the country, eight sworn jurors and one talesman accepted as to cause sat in the box. The wife of Robert Bain, one of the Jurors, has since made a deposition to the state that through Bert H. Franklirf, an investigator employed by the defense, she was persuaded to induce her husband to accept $500 as-a. bribe to see "that no verdict of guilty was returned, with a promise of $3,500 after the trial. For the arrest and conviction of the dynamiters of the Times rewards aggregating nearly $250,000 were offered The city, the the county and a tremendous list of individuals contributed to this sum.

Some of the rewards have been withdrawn, some are said to be of doubtful legality, so that the actual total now estimated at less than $50,000. Before nightfall of the day the Times was blown up, clock work bombs were found at the residence of General Harrison Gray Otis, its publisher, and E. Zeehandelaer, secretary of the Merchants and Manufacturers Association. Both these men were supporters of the "open shop" policy and the Times has stood for years on a platform printed every day at the top of one of its columns declaring for "industrial followed by. detectives led to San Francisco and.

developed in the indictment of Bryc," the name under which James B. McNamara traveled, and Milton A. Schmidt and David Kaplan, who are still at large. A remark by Samuel L. Brown, chief investigator for the.

state, that the men who were sheltering them had stopped doing go, was taken -by some that the McNamaras where they were and told The chase after the dynamiters halt: ed a time" when Ottie E. carried'-vere equipped with bombs- like the one which was--placed 'at General Otis' house and did not One of the" two suit cases, was blown -up as it was being taken away. The othor Lwas taken apart and formed one of the important clues in the Three days later secret indictments were returned by grand Jury against both McNamaras. and April 22nd John J. McNamara was arrested at Indiana polis.

He was extradited and arrived in Los Angeles April 26th. May McManigal told the grand jury that James B. McNamara had told htm that he blew up the Timers building. The next day 21 new, indictments, were returned against the McNamaras, McManigal, Schmidt and others. The' case of Ortie McManigal, who has.

confessed to dynamiting many buildings is- yet to be heard. Boys Department Defeats Scrubs Yesterday afternoon the: Davidson Scrubs journey to Charlotte to play the representative team of the boy's department of the Y. M. They played and were defeated by the boy's team by the score of 4 7to 27. The game was very interesting and at the end of the first half it would have been a hard matter to pick the winner.

At the start of the second half the Y. M. C. A. boys played rings around their larger, and heavier opponents, and scored 29 points tjo Davidson's 13.

Bra dy played the best game for Davidson- scoring 6 of their 27 points. For Charlotte every -player on the team played fine ball. The boys have a mighty fast team, and a series of games are being arranged with the Belmont high Following was- the line-up yesterday: Dowd, Long and Nisbet, forwards, Fes- perman center, Andrews, Rhyne and Reese, guards. Saturday night of this week two fast games are scheduled. In the local tournament the C's play the A's.

This is the A's first appearance, and on paper they are a mighty fast bunch. In the intermediate league the C. H. S. team plays the Y.

M. C. A. Next Monday night, December 11th, the representative team plays the strong team from, Wofford. This is Wofford's first apparance in Charlotte, and by all reports they have a mighty strong team.

The local team will put in a good week's practice, and be ready put up a fine game by Monday. The Davidson game showed the team their weakness, and after this week, it will be mighty hard to find a weakness. In last night's practice the men showed better form than they have any time this season, and if they would have played the same ball against Davidson as they 'played last night, it would have been, a hard matter to tell what the score would have been.
