DESPERATE DYNAMITERS.
Fiendish Attempt to Blow Up a
New York Dry Goods House.
Evidently the Work of Strikers-Two Build
ings Damaged, But no one Hurt.

New YORK, February 1.-At a late
hour last night an explosion took place
underneath the show window of Garry
Brothers dry goods store, Grand and AL
len streets. The window casing and sash
were entirely demolished. At the time of
the explosion G number of persons were
passing the spot, but none of them were
injured. The windows of Ridley Bros.'
were also shattered. The shock was felt
several hundred feet. A lamp on shelf
in the Eldridge Street House, three hundred
feet away,was thrown to the floor. Dishes
in tenement houses in the eneighborhood rat
tied. and the iron stanchions of the Ele.
waited Railroad, near the store, look as
though they had received violent blows:
There is no evidence that the cartridge was
applied to Ridley's store. Had it not been
for the heavy elevated railroad structure
which runs up Allen street between the two
stores, however, the probability is good
part of the west side of Ridley's building
would have suffered. Many of Ridley's en-
ployes came to the spot to guard the prem
ises. The damage to both buildings is 81
500. The police are satisfied that the ex-
plosion was the outcome of the strike OF
Garry Brothers employees. Burke, a former
clerk of the firm, and who caused the strike,
was dismissed for failing one night to prop
erly secure the doors of the establishment.
The Dry Goods Clerks Union, of which he
is member, tried many methods to secure
his reinstatement. They went SO far as to
station men in the vicinity of the store and
ask intending purchasers to boycott the
firm. When the strike was ordered by the
Union, the firm was left without a clerk
Shortly after the explosion four men were
found in the shadow of the livingston
street Station of the elevated road, one o1
them, Charles Henry, laborer, who said
he lived at Williamsburg, with severely cut
head and face. The others, VIM. Britton,
a waiter; Jas. DAILY, clerk, and Jos
Lamb, painter, were binding Henry's
wounds. All were arrested and remanded
To-day lad was arrested, charged with
experimenting in dynamite, at the corner
of Grand and Essex streets, where he sue
ceeded in dislodging portion of the horse
car track. 1T could not be connected with
the other explosion.

Dynamiters' Threats.

LONDON, January 30.-Harcourt. Home
Secretary, has received information that
dynamiters have threatened to blow up the
British Museum. Extra precautions have
been taken to protect the building. 1t was
reported late this afternoon that the Scot
land Yard authorities arrested dynamiter
at his lodgings in thew Westminster District.
and found an internal machine concealed in
his room. Many extra policemen have
been placed about the British Museum
buildings. In the courts where the an
tiquities are displayed the exhibits have
been rallied off, so that only narrow pas
sage is left through the middle of the
courts for s,ight-seers. The sta
tion master at the London terminus of
the Great Eastern Railway has received a
letter threatening to blow up the depot 1t
is rumored man was arrested at the gen.
eral post-office for carrying dynamite.
Numerous threats are made to blow up the
Holyhead Railway terminus and hotel and
the Britannia Tubular Bridge and the
Menai Suspension Bridge crossing Menai
Strait. American tourists will be some
what concerned by these reports, as this is
one of their favorite routes.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Mrs. Pollard Saved from Sufocation by the
Intelligence of Her Dog.

NFw YORK, January 30.-Mrs. Marie An
toinette Pollard, elocutionist and lecturer,
and widow of the Southern historian, E.
A. Pollard, sat waiting until after midnight
on Thursday night in the front ballroom
on the second floor of No. As West Four
teen street. She had locked the door of her
office and the key was in her pocket.
Her coach dog Julia, lay on the
floor beside her chair. Prof. B. P. Wor-
cester was asleep in. the front office. c.
". Turner, :, proprietor OF the
artists studio on the top floor of the three
Thomas. Mrs. Pollard was at work on her
new lecture, "The Glorious South of 1885,
and was so much absorbed in the task that
she did not notice how late it was. Her dog
had been restless and had acted in a Pc
culiar, nervous manner for some time.
Finally the animal howled lpiteously and
Mrs. Pollard, started from her work, noticed
full of smoke at the time, but she had not
noted the fact. She tried to open the hall
door to ascertain where the smoke came
from, but forgot that the key was in
her pocket. Becoming alarmed, she
pounded on the floor leading to the choir
school until she awoke Prof. Worcester.
He opened the door and they went into the
hall together. Smoke was rising from the
first floor in dense clouds. The Professor
ran down to the street and sent out an alarm
of fire. Then they opened front window
and were helped down the ladder by the
fireman. The flames had started in Bass
ford's store, from an overheated stove, and
had extended to the roof along the stair
ways in the hall. Rooms on the upper
floors had not been invaded when the fire
was put under control. The losses aegre-
gate about $4,000.
