HAD PLANNED TO WRECK
NEW YORK BUILDINGS
Internal Machines and Diagrams
Found in a Suicides
Trunk

NEW YORK, July 29.-Mrs. Jackson,
who conducts a boarding house at 305
West One Hundredth and Forty-seventh
street, has furnished the police with evil
dence of what they regard as conspir
acy to wreck with bombs many of the
big buildings in this city.
1t is believed the conspiracy originated
with two foreigners, one of whom,
Count Eugene Noroff. committed sui
eide in Central Park July g. and the other
of whom is declared by Mrs. Jackson to
have ended his life soon after the death
of Nor0fC
Evidence of the conspiracy, which Mrs.
Jackson turned over to the police, was
found in Noroff's trunk, which had been
left in her possession and which she
opened. In the trunk were five brass cyl
inders, each six inches long and from one
eighth to one-half an inch in diameter,
some wires and a wooden block three
inches long, with a hole in the center,
stuffed with what is thought TO be gun
cotton.
With these articles We're found da-
grams of the Madison Avenue Hotel and
many other large buildings in different
parts of the city.

CLEVELAND, July 29.-Although or
der has practically been restored with
in the city the railroad strike has re-
solved itself into a general boycott of
the Big Consolidated Company and
everybody who rides upon its cars. APP
parently the strikers have the sympa-
thy and active cooperation of all the
labor organizations in the city. Not
only are merchants being punished for
riding on the tabooed cars, but they are
warned against selling goods to other
people who do ride, on threat of losing
the trade of union men. Instances are
given in which druggists have refused
to sell medicine to people who were
accused of patronizing the Big Consoh-
dated Company, and physicians nave
been boycotted for riding upon the cars
while going to see their patients. The
boycott is most severe on the small
dealers who do business on streets that
are populated largely by union men and
their sympathizers.
A number of these merchants have
published advertisements to-day, offer
ing rewards ranging from $25 to $500
for reliable evidence that they or any
of their clerks or relatives have ridden
on the cars since the strike began, and
a number of communications have been
sent to the papers by physicians, gro
GERS, butchers and others protesting
their innocence of the charge of having
patronized the railroad company. AS
yet the big retail merchants have not
felt the effects of the boycott severely,
though it is said some of them have
been requested to forbid their clerks to
ride on the cars.
Thousands of working people are go
ing TO and from their homes in buses
of every kind and description from
huckster wagons to tallyhos, and in
certain sections of the city the cars
run with few passengers. This is not
true of Euclid, Cedar, Central and
Wade Park avenue lines, which run
through the best parts of the East End.
There the cars are pretty well filed.

TaSSSN'SANNN
BERLIN, July 29.-The papers this week
have been giving their verdict of the out
come of the Peace Conference at The
Hague. The tone Of the comment of the
papers friendly to the conference gener-
ally is one Of disappointment that so little
has been accomplished. while those OPP
posing indulge in gleeful Fluctuations that
no more was accomplished. The Tagblatt
considers that the form of arbitrat ton
adopted marks an important step toward
securing the peace of the world, and adds:
Whoever knows the toilsome way in
which progress of international law Is
made will be satisfied with this. result;
The Post says: The result shows that
those who had been neither too optimistic
nor too pessimistic In expectations were
in the right"
The most important result the Post sees
is that a method is now open to nations
for settling difficulties. saying: while the
conference has not ushered in the millen-
ium. still 1t shows that the powers are
earnestly striving to preserve for the
peoples the blessings Of peace
The National Liberal Boersen zeitung
calls the final protocol a funeral GRAFTON
and says the results equal zero.
The KreuZ Zeitung, referring to the
United States and England. says: The
nations that boasted loudest of their hu-
mainly made the stoutest resistance to
really practical humanitarian PROPOSE
tons"
The Kreuz zeitung further points out
that while England and the United States
stood together in opposing the prohibition
of bombs filled with noxious gases the
United States backed up England's re-
fusaI to abandon the dumdum bullet.

ence for the principles of the Cars proc

INTRODUCES absolutely no change in exist
ing conditions"
The Agrarian Deutsche Tages Zeitung
makes merry over the friends of peace.
whose cherished hopes are far from being
realized.
The Hague correspondent of the Frank
furter Zeitung says: THE American dele
gates are quite satisfied with the achieve
ments Of the conference. They played 4
very happy role, which they were able to
do through their conciliatory position. 1t
was chiefly due TO this position of the
Americans that Germany was finally won
over to the plan of the permanent arbi-
tration bureau. Mr. Hollis and others told
the correspondent that after Professor
Zorn's speech, in which Germany's oppo-
sition to the permanency of the arbitra-
ton court was emphasized the situation
had grown critical and ii seemed probable
that the conference would dissolve pre-
maturely and nothing be accomplished,
which would have brought the odium of
the f1asco upon Germany and have the
effect of isolating her in her relations
with other powers"

Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS ANGELES, July 29.-Contrary to
all expectations, Governor Henry T.
Gage so far has not found time to visit
Colonel D. NJ. Burns at Catalina,
whittier the political leader wendell his
way three weeks ago. Governor Gage
Will not say when he will leave for Sac
ramento or when he will go to Cata-
lima. This peculiar attitude of the ex>
ecutive is causing deal of trouble
among political bosses in this end of
the State and has given rise to much
gossip. Local Republican leaders are
wondering whether a GOODNESS may not
have arisen between the Governor and
Colonel Burns, that may eliminate in
a SCATTERING of political alliances so
closely formed year ago.
The appointment of Judge Fitzgerald
to the Los Angeles County Superior
Court Judgeship is taken by many to
mean that Governor Gage is now act
ing Independently. and that he has
taken the political bit between his teeth
with determination to assume his pre-
negatives This sentiment is not dis
guised; it is freely spoken and is
heightened by the slap that lawyers
say was given to the dozen of local cam
didates for the Superior Court
On the other hand, the friends of Col
onel Burns assert that he has informed
them Governor Gage did not make the
selection of Judge Fitzgerald until he
was consulted, and that he approved
the course of the Governor. These same
friends go further and assert with n
charming degree of positiveness that
Colonel Burns is taken into confidence
before any appointments whatever are
made. That the friends of Burns are
chaerined owing to the failure of the
Governor to meet the man from the
north is apDarent.

STOCKTON, july 29.-Inspector of

afternoon.

Belgium has yet other crises to meet, but
her tremendous resources will enable her

much from such men and obtains a point

America. l found everywhere on the
Continent evidences of a continued and
growing good will in the best circles and

wit of the French. the casual view they
take of things which we Anglo-SaXons

a most fascinating study. Naturally

United States and administration are now
tackling a field of foreign politics never

WASHINGTON. July 2s.-Captain C. F.
Goodrich has been detached from COM
mand of the cruiser Newark and ordered
to assume command of the battleship
Iowa on September /. relieving Captain
Terry, who is ordered home on waiting or
ders.
The assignment is of special interest in
connection with the plans TO make the
Iowa the nucleus of a considerable fleet
on the Pacific Coast and execute an ex-
tensive programme of naval mnneuvers.
Being the only battleship of the fleet, the
Iowa will probably rank first among the
ships of that station, and Captain Good
rich doubtless will have command.

will be the presence of Eugene Kinkead

has, however, kept in close touch with
the game and has kept in practice
through coaching several eleyens OF i'm

best cracks among the present players OF
the game and much is expected of him.
