EXPLOSION CAUSES A
PANIC IN TENEMENT
Believed TO BE WORK OF BLACK
HAND IN NEW YORK
Portion Of Building Is Wrecked, VIM
dows Shattered and Many Persons
Are Injured, but None Seriously.
Act Follows Threatening Letter
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. ia charge Of
dynamite in the doorway of the gro
Gerry store of Antonio Garbalvo, 13
Stanton street on the East Side, a few
minutes after o'clock this morning,
wrecked the lower of the front half
Of the building. shattered the windows
of the tenements above and threw
into a panic hundreds of tenants.
Windows in the tenement building
at 1 Station street opposite were also
broken. No one was dangerously in
jured, although many bruises and cuts
were received in the hurry of the
frightened tenants to escape.
The outrage is believed by the police
to have been directed against Gar
balvo, who with his two sisters oc-
cupies the rooms at the rear Of his
store. Garbalvo a week ago received
Black Hand letter demanding $1,000
from him. He turned the letter over
to the police, who have since been at
tempting to identify the author.
The building of which Garbalvo oc-
cupied the first floor, is of six stories,
the upper floors being occupied as tell
ements by score of families.
The only clue found at once by the
police was furnished NY John O'Hara,
who described himself as a waiter.
OHara said he was passing through
Stanton street shortly after 8 o'clock
when he met boy about sixteen years
of age. The lad appeared to be a for
eigner and had his coat collar turned
about his neck and the visor of his
cap drawn over his eyes. After passing
him, he turned for second look at
the lad, who was then directly oppo-
site 13 Stanton street. At the same
moment he heard and felt the ex-
plosion which nearly threw him to the
sidewalk. The monetary loss will not
exceed $2OO0

A JudicIoua InuuIrv

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he was often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for a cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for a child or
for an adult, and if for a child they al
most invariably recommend Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this is that they know there is no
danger from it and that it always cures.
There is not the least danger in giving
it, and for coughs, colds and Group it is
unsurpassed. For sale by all leading
druggists.

Reports Suit Case Stolen

]. G. King, for the past week a guest
at the Magnolia hotel at 651 South Main
street, reports that his room was en-
tered some time Monday afternoon and
that two suit cases were taken from his
apartments.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-10-18

which has attended us is due to a great
extent to their ability and energy. 1
desire to assure you that in erecting
this monument no measures will
be spared to make this new home of
ours the most complete and up to date
in the United States. In every plan and
detail the welfare and comfort Of the
employees will be considered fully as
important as the accommodations for
the public.
"I hope that when the doors of this
new building are thrown open to the
public they will find in charge of the
various features the same ones who
have served them so faithfully in the
old building on Spring street. Let us
all work together, not as strangers, but
as members of the same family, to the
end that greater success may be ours.
For as you and all thinking persons
know in an enterprise of this nature
the benefits are always mutual. Any
action taken for the good of the busi-
ness in general is also for the good of
each individual connected with the en-
terprise. I regret very much the in
ability of my two brothers in not being
able to attend this ceremony, but under
the circumstances it was impossible for
them to be here. 1 trust that the very
happy conditions under which this work
is commenced may be a forerunner of
the conditions which will exist through
the years to come, and that no one con-
nected with this organization may ever
have cause to regret casting their lot
with us.
II just want to say to you in my own
name and in the name of my absent
brothers we fully appreciate the faith
full service that you have rendered us,
and in conclusion I trust that everyone
here present will be with us on the
opening of the largest department store
west of Chicago. I will now use this
instrument for the purpose it was in
tended for the turning the first sod
for our new home, after which it will
be placed in some suitable position as
evidence to the public of the good fell
lowship and spirit of cooperation which
exists in what we hope will be the
largest and best department store in
the west"
To Bring Gc0d Luck
The formal act of breaking the
ground was then observed, and after
President Hamburger had dug up the
earth the silver shovel was held aloft
so everybody could see it, and as a con-
clusion to the ceremony every employe
was asked to pick up some of the dirt
and throw it over the left shoulder to
insure everlasting good luck.
Three hearty cheers and a tiger were
given by the merry crowd, and the first
chapter in the big enterprise was ap-
propriately closed.
Contractor Carl Leonardt today will
begin the work of excavation for the
great building. The basement will be
the deepest and largest in Los Angeles
and the entire west The frontage on
Broadway will be 305 feet, on Eighth
street 165 feet and on Hill street 124
feet, the building to be seven stories
high and to cost over $5OOOOO. 1t is ex-
pected that the structure will be COM
pleted and ready for occupancy on
July 1, 1907.

Lobe Widows Hundred Cats.

A singular case was decided in a
Montreal court yesterday. Mrs. l..
Brossard, widow, resides in a rented
house and her landlord moved to have
the lease canceled.on the ground that
the woman used the house more as a
menagerie than as a place of luman
habitation
1t was set forth that about hun.
dred cats were kept by this lonely
widow, and the plea was that they
not only injured the premises but
were a nuisance in the neighborhood.
The woman conducted her own de.
fense. She argued that she was
poor, lone widow and therefore should
be allowed to have as many cats as
she thought necessary to solace her
declining years. Judgment was rend.
cred by Judge Taschereau. who or.
dered the woman to yacate the house
and to pay all the rent due as well as
the costs Of the case.-Toronto Globe.
