GOTHAM BOMBOUTRAGE
TENANTS OF LARGE TENEMENT
TERRIFIED TODAY.
Special DIspatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 5.-Another bomb
outrage was perpetrated early this morning
when the tenants of large three-story
brick tenement at III North 9Th street
Williamsburg, were shaken from their beds
by a terrific explosion. Fragments of a
bomb were found in the cellar underneath a
barber shop kept by Tony Senator, which,
from the quantities of gun cotton picked
up. must have been of considerable size
For some time threatening letters have
been received by Senator, who, however
paid no attention to them.
The house was fairly raised by the force
of the explosion, and but small damage was
done. The watchmen at the yards Of the
Pennsylvania and Erie railroads, a block
away, were on their beats about o'clock
when they heard the noise. They ran to the
spot and entered by the front cellar door
which had been forced open. They found
tongues of flames rapidly gaining Roadway
With the aid of neighbors, however, they
succeeded in extinguishing the fire BY the
use of chemicals before the arrival of the
fire engines.
The occupants Of the tenement while
greatly frightened, thinking it an explosion
like that of Saturday night, only in their
Immediate neighborhood. had fiocked out
into the smoke-filled nails and several ran
out into the streets thinly clad.
Central Office detectives are on the case
and are satisfied of its being Of black hand
origin.

cities Of Vermont are holding elections TO-
day and all towns are voting on the ques-
ton of license for the sale Of Intoxicating

change from last year.
The fight In this city is probably the most
severe Of any. because of the adoption OF
the new charter which provides for
two-years' term for mayor. The candidates
are Mayor James e. Burke, democrat who
