New York, on Saturday, on the lives Of VIM. III.
Vanderbilt and Cyrus w. Field, by sending explo-
sives through the mail Two packages were put
in the mail In the afternoon, and while the mail
pouch containing them was being conveyed up
town on the elevated road the jar OF the train
caused an explosion OF one OF the packages, burn
Ing the mail pouch, but doing no other damage.
w. Field, after being soaked in water, was opened
and was found TO contain q paStebOard box, en-
closing tin canister, In which there was about
half pound OF powder and a glass jar containing
white powder and some kind OF liquid explosive.
Vigorous measures have been adopted to ferret out
the senders OF these packages
The N. Y. Herald to-day. states that Saturday
night a suspicious package was left at the house
or MIR. Davenport, which IL is thought intended
for his neighbor, Superintendent OF Police Waling
II exploded in the hallway, setting rug on fire,
but fortunately doing no further damage. The
Herald says: There Is sufnsient In the appear
ance OF the packages, the writing upon them and
the other traces or their authors handiwOrk to
suggest at least that the finger OF some hair
Drained socialist is In the whole affair"
