M1MARAS MOTHER WAIITSJORE PROOF From Their Own Tongues She Must Hear that They Are Guilty. (National News Association) Cincinnati, Dec. 6. Mrs. Mary McNamara. mother of .1 anion arid John McNamara, who were sentenced yesterday to nerve tt life term and 15 yean, respectively, for the dynamiting outrages in Los Angeles, Cat., completely broke down when she received the news of the sentence and she had to be cared for by a physician. Half sobbing the aged mother, worn by the strain she has borne up under for the past nine months, stated lust night that Bho would not believe her sons were the real instigators of the crime until tbey told her with their own tongues. She also said that there was something very deep behind the entire case, which will eventually come out and free her convicted sons. "I am satisfied," said Mrs. McNamara, "that my boys were urged to

plead guilty for some reason that Is unknown to me and the outside world, but I feel such faith In my sons that I am sure truth will out in the end and they will be looked upon by the general public as being honest and game. My boys have always been faithful and kind to me, and since boyhood have nerer failed to come to my assistance In times when the world looked blue and I really needed help. Of course, they have been away a great deal of the time since ihey have grown into manhood, but I can truthfully say that they have never forgotten their mother and have proved true blue to me. So what more can I say?'Mrs. McNamara has made all arrangements to go to Los Angeles Immediately after the Christmas holidays to visit her sons. ' William Umbauc.h, a lifelong Mend and associate of the McNamaras, and who had worked with John In the lumber fields in Michigan, said last night that no one could tell him that Jim and John had "cold feet," He declared they never would have pleaded guilty were it not to shield some other parties.

Poole, defendant in the Pooh; murder trial, in progreHs here, went, on the witnewa stand yesterday in her father's behalf, and the defense depended a great deal on the girl's story in its effort to save Poole from conviction for first degree murder. The girl was in tears when she began her story, and her sister Maud, who was beside her father, fainted as Grace started her story, and her husband assisted her from the courtroom. Grace Poole said that her father, as fay back as she could remember, had frequent attacks of frenzy and severe headaches, which seemed to affect his mind. She said on many occasions he would fly into a passion without cause, would hurl objects at members of the family and drive them from the house. These attacks she said, would occur as often as two or three times a week

When he undertook any work, she said, he would never complete one job without taking up another and he displayed great lack of memory. Thomas Gaywood was the first witness for the defense yesterday. He has known Poole since 1878, and he said that in his opinion Poole was a person of unsound mind. He said he visited Poole at the jail here Bhortly after Poole was brought to this city and Poole talked very incoherently to him.
