The ATIC finding was an excess of extremely high energy electrons. You mentioned an article about brown dwarfs that does not discuss generation of such electrons. Rather, it discusses radio emissions much like those of, for instance, Jupiter. So, again: How do you get from radio emissions to very high energy electrons? What's the mechanism, for a brown dwarf, and where are your references for that mechanism?
