New York. May 15--Sailing lists of
half dozen trans Atlantic steamship
lines have been found by detectives
in the room of G.. Rosseau, who it is al
legged, was the sender of the internal
machine found at the Cunard COM
pany's docks recently.
This fact has given rise to the the
DRY that Rosseau sailed for Europe
Saturday, immediately after the warn
ing letter had been sent to Police COM
missioner Greene. The sailing lists
found in Rosseau's room were all folded
in q way to suggest that Saturdays
sailings had been studied. No railway
time tables We're found in the room
and those boarders in the house who
knew Rousseau best are strongly of the
route for some foreign port. They
think it possible that he sailed on the
Umbria.
On cabled instructio from the po-
lice here each of the steamers which
sailed east-bound Saturday will be
searched on arrival for the dynamitef.
A morning paper says the dynamiter
who placed an Internal machine on the
Umbria made it in Chicago. The paper
says:
