DYNAMITERS' BAIL FIXED AT 1 100 000 INDIANAPOLIS CASE
The United States Circuit Court of Appeals set bail at 1 100 000 for thirty two labor leaders convicted of a continuing conspiracy in dynamite activities. Bonds must be secured by property at least twice the bail amount. Judge Baker noted doubts about obtaining such funds but anticipated possible release of Frank M. Ryan and a few others during appeal. The writ of supersedeas depends on the defence's claim of a continuing offence, with bonds based on 10 000 per year of sentence. Continued on fourth page sixth column.
