POLICE FAIL TO
FIND WOMAN Who
BLEW Up TAX|CAB
No Trace of Her Since She
Left Bomb in Vehicle at
Grand Central.

The mysterious female who left a
perfectly good bomb in a red taxlcab
at the Grand Central station last night
and disappeared just as the bomb blew
vehicle. has not been found. It Is sup
posed that she hurried into the subway
station and took an express train be-
fore the excitement attending the ex-
plosion had subsidized.
Naturally, the officers OF the New
York Transportation Company place the
explosion at the door of the striking
chauffeurs. Women have played an i'm
portant part in many OF the acts of
violence directed at the company since
the inauguration of the strike. For the
purpose OF disarmng suspicion, strike
ympathizers, seeking to lure strike
breaking chauffeurs to out of the way
places where an assault might he 2onl-
mittod with impunity have had q
woman in their company when engag-
ing the cab.
Woman Worked Alone.
The woman in the explosion of last
night worked alone. She approached a
chauffeur bearing the scintillating name
os Diamond Phanaus. who was sta
toned in front of Church!lls restaurant
at Forty-seventh street and Broadway,
at Il o'clock.
Phanaus does not know whether she
came out of the restaurant or not. He
says she carried a big bouquet of flow
ers on her arm. She was richly dressed
and wore heavy veil.
ordering Phanus to take her to the
Vanderbilt avenue entrance OF the
Grand Central Station, she entered the
cab. PhanuS started down Broadway,
turned into Forty-second street, crossed
to Vanderbilt avenue and deposited his
fare at the door OF the station in a few
minutes He opened the door of the
cab and as the woman stepped out she
handed him - cents. which sum was
% cents in excess of the fare regis
tered upon the face of the taNimeter.
Then she entered the station,
The fact that the woman had the ex-
act amount ready. asked no questions
and walked directly away from the
chauffeur convinces the .taXicab people
that she had been coached by some
former chauffeur, who told her Just
what to pay. Phanaus dropped the
money into his pocket and slammed
the door OF the cab.
