TELLS HOW ACCIDENT HAPPENED
Was So Excited He Touched Lightet Cigarette to the Wrong End of
 the Explosive.

New York-The bomb which Sc liz Silverstein intended to throw into Union Square park a week ago last Saturday upon the dispersal by the police of a meeting of New Iork's unemployed. was made out of brass top from a bedstead This statement was made Monday by Sil- verstein to an attendant at the hos pital, where the bomb thrower lies lowering between life and death from the effects of the missiles premature explosion.
 .I made the bomb from the top of a bedstead," Silverstein is reported to have said. Ut was a round brass ball and hollow l bought quarte: of pound of nails, broke them in half and put them in the ball. I put nitro-glycerin on top of them and on top of the nitro-glycerin l put some gunpowder. When I got to the park l saw policeman who had beaten me. I put fuse in the bomb and walked over to the fountain. I had lighted cigarette, which l had in my hand, and I tried to touch off the fuse. but in my excitement I put the cigarette in the wrong hole, causing the explosion.
 Silyerstein said that he did not know the man near him who was killed, but declared that he knew Al eSander Berkman and Emma Gold man. He also said the Union square bomb was the second he had made, but declined 10 tell when the first one was manufactured or the use to which it was put.
 Silyerstein, who has shown remark able vitality, was said to be much worse Monday night, and he was suf- fering great pain.

State Encampment Lies With
 Concress,

If bill now pending before Con- gress providing for a liberal appropria- tion of money for state militia annual encampments passes, the Arkansas Ma tional Guard will hold it's annual en- campmefit the coming summer at Leon Springs, Tex. Otherwise it is very probable that the encampment will be held at Fort Riley, Kan, where the guard has been encamped once before.
 Adjutant General Paul Little of the Arkansas National Guard explained that he was awaiting the outcome of the present appropriation bill now be- fore the Congress. If the bill passes, the various state militias will be pro yided with funds to hold encamp- ments, and such an appropriation would mean enough money for the Ar kansas Guard 10 allow it to go to Leon Springs Otherwise the encampment will probably have to be held at Fort Rifle as the expense in going there would be much less.

A petition for the pardon of B. A. Sharp, who was convicted at Bates vile last December for purchasing merchandise with stamps while he was the postmaster at Caldron, was received Saturday morning by w. c. Whipple, United States district attor- ney.
 The petition will ultimately be for warded to the president for final con- sideration. The document has receiv- ed the signatures of many in the dis trict in which Sharp lived. Sharp is now confined in the federal prison at Atlanta
 The district attorney has not made any recommendation in the matter to date. It is the custom 10 senr all pe- titiens for pardon in federal cases to the district attorney who conducted the prosecution, to the judge that pre- sided and to the jury that returned the verdict. In the present case some of the jury have already signed the petition for Sharp's pardon.
