Indianapolis, January 2.--W. J. Burns has arrived here to testify before the federal grand jury in what will probably be the final lap of the government's investigation into the alleged dynamiting company in connection with the crimes perpetrated by the McNamaras and for which the two brothers are now serving terms in the penitentiary in California.

Burns, who is the detective who worked up the case against the McNamaras, said today he expected to collect the sum of $30,000 in rewards for the arrests he has already made, but that he will divide a part of this sum among his assistants.

The grand jury is going deep into the case, and it is said that other indictments involving men high up in labor circles are expected as a result of the investigation.
