had been mailed In this city. The box
was turned over to Postmaster Sobel,
who called In Chief OF Police Wagner

out the side OF the box and exposed a
bottle and contrivances so arranged
that the opening Of the lid would pull
the cork and ignite several matches.
The following inscription was on
the inside wrapper; "You may per
