ACTIVE TRADE IN
SMUGGLEB ARMS BROKEN UP

Berlin, March ll.--An active trade IN
struggled arms at Ostrowo, Prussia, and
at Kalsch, Russia, was brokon up this
week by the Joint action Of the Prus-
sian and Austrian police The arms
intercepted consisted chiefly OF the
poorest quality OF reyolvers worth
1926 wholesale. There is no evidence
that the smugglers were agents OF the
reyolutIonists or that they were con-
nected with any organization They
were merely adventurous travellers who
sell goods on the other side Of the Dor.
der at 400 or 500 per cent profit, with
little risk on this side Of the frontier,
although those caught IN Russian ter
ritOry are severely punished This
Illicit trade has always existed, but IN
creased 10 large proportions during the
recent months. Such revolyers are
now abundant in any Polish city, but
are becoming dearer' farther In the
frontier. The arms are concealed In
many ways IN goods sent into the coun-

cloth and punches Of bananas, The
experience Of German commercial ira

BOMB EXPLOOES
IN RUSSIAN HOTEL
The Owner, a Man With an Eng.
lish Passport, Had Both His
Legs Torn OF,
NO DOUBT He WAS A TERRORIST
Wife Of an officer AlsO Rilled-Ile
May Have Been Connected With
Scrglus' Assassination.

81 Petersburg March 1.-THE ex-
plosion OF q bomb at the Hotel Bristol,
adjoining the Hotel d'Angleterre here,
just before daylight, this morning, blew
10 atoms the owner Of the bomb,
man with an English passport and
giving the name Of Alfred Henry Nc
Cullough, and wrecked the adjoining
rooms killing the wife Of an officer
and injuring several other dodgers.
The explosion was heard blocks away
and created o tremendous sensation.
McCulloughs legs We're torn or and
the flesh Of the upper portion Of his
body spattered the walls and ceiling,
which were red with blood The police
believe Mccullough was charging the
bomb when Il exploded. Al the British
embassy and consulate Mccullough is
unknown. 1t Is not believed he was
a British subject
There Is not the slightest doubt that
the man Killed was connected With
terrorists plots, Tho bomb was OF the
same power as those which killed the
late Minister Of the Interior Won Plehve
and Grand Duke Sergius, creating the
same havoc as did the explosion at
the Hotel du Nord last Spring, The
preliminary investigation of the police
leads them to believe that McCul-
Tough was engaged either I'm packing
his effects, as the Hotel Bristol was to
be watched today when the bomb
which like all the Internal machines OF
the terrOrists was provided with grav-
ity tubes, fell and exploded as the one
at the Hotel du Nord did The police
Immediately surrounded the hotel,
mounted gendarmes, allowing no one
to go within 80 PAGES
An Independent investigation made
by the Associated Press seems to es-
tablish beyond question that the man
killed was a terrorist leader His pass
port OF course was fictitious. but the
man was n foreigner not a Russian.
AZ tho Hotel de Paris, where he has
been stopping from time to time since
the middle Of January, Mccullough
was described as very innocent look
ing man between 30 and 40 years Old
resembling more a Frenchman than an
Engllshman, speaking French with tho
nuency OF native He also spoke
English, which, however, he had little
occasion TO use at the hotel where
he kept much to himself, going away
on frequent short trips. Just before
Grand Duke Serglus was assassinated,
the man was absent for two days
which might connect him directly with
the grand dukes murder Mccullough
professed TO be engaged I'm business,
but In view Of what has happened,
his movements are admitted to have
been mysterious,
Some Of the police are inclined tD
think Mel 'ullOugh was 81 direct ou1fa-
sary Of the Paris revolutionary organ
