Burns had detectives after us, that detectives were even coming up near the vault where we stored the dynamite, and that one of them followed me on the street when 1 was going with a suit- case of dynamite to blow up the South Chicago job,” sald McManigal. “Mc- Namara said if he saw any more of them we would go to Chicago and rent & room next to Burns' office, put an electric wire through the wall and arrange to set off from our room a bomb in Burns' desk when he was sit- ting there. That would make an end of our troubles with him, he said. I told him I didn't think we would do anything of the kind or ever get gear Burns.” That was about April 5 Manigal He and were arrested seven days later.
