EXPLOSION ROCKS CITY
PITTSBURG SCARED BY AT.
TEMPT TO WRECK BRIDGE.
Dynamiters Escape - Windows
Broken and Missiles Fly
Through Air.

PITTSBURG, July ia conclusion
felt all over the city at 2:30 o'clock this
morning remained an alarming mystery
for several hours today, until 1t was
finally reported from the west end that
an attempt had been made there to blow
IN the West Belt lines new bridge on
West Carson street.
The contractors who are building the
bridge have been having some labor
troubles, because of insistence upon the
open shop policy.
Bridge Wreckers Escape.
The identity of the bridge wreckers,
however, is unknown. They escaped after
partial success in running the bridge and
complete success in soaring Pittsburg.
The detonation, probably OF both nitro
slycertn and dynamite, rocked buildings
and broke windows throughout the west
end district.
Some heavy object came flying through
the fog and punctured q big hole in the
deck of the steamer Valiant. lying in this
Ohio river nearby. The mysterious mis-
sile then rolled off and sank. leaving the
astonished boat crew to fear that Hal
ley's comet had hurled a parting shot
Knocked OF Chair.
The operator in a Lake Erie switch
tower was knocked from his chair by
the explosion. All the windows In his
tower were broken.
The prisoners at the Western peniten-
tiary were aroused. They feared that an
earthquake had occurred. 1t was with
difficulty that they were got to sleep
again.
The police are investigating.

MRS. 0RMSBY GIVEN
CUSTODY Of CHILD
Father Unfit Person to Have
POSSeSSiOn-FOrmer Wife'S
Forbearance Praised.

The question of the custody of little
Woodbury. G. Ormsby, that has attracted
the attention of the local courts and the
tribunals of Ohio and Massachusetts, for
nearly two years, was settled today.
Justice Stafford gave the four-year-old
child into the custody of the mother.
Amy Law Ormsby. The father is George
F. Ormsby. a Washington lawyer and
former ensign in the navy.
History Of Case.
Mr. and Mrs. Ormsby were divorced in
Xenia. Ohio, on the wife's application.
The mother was granted the custody of
the child
About two years ago. without obtain
ing consent of the mother. Ormsby took
their child to Massachusetts, for what he
called a summer vacation. The wife saw
the United States attorney. and an in
dictment for abduction was returned
against Ormsby and he was arrested in
Massachusetts,
After the child was returned the indict-
ment was nolle pressed Qrmsby then
began habeas corpus proceedings to OBJ
tain possession OF the child.
In quashing the writ and denying the
petition Justice Stafford said:
This is petition brought by George
f. Ormsby in the supposed interest OF
his child, Woodbury. B. Ormsby. seeking
to have the exclusive custody of the child
decreed to his father upon the ground
that the child is unlawfully confined and
cruelty treated by the respondent.
The respondent is the mother OF the
child, and, except for about a fortnight,
has always kept the child In her CUSTODY
and under her care. The child Is now
something over four years old.

without entering into a discussion
OF the various questions OF law that
have been presented. it will be enough
to say that the court holds that, In
the circumstances of the case. 1t Is It's
duty to decide the main question IN
volved in the interest of the child. me
evidence has convinced the court that
the petitioner is an unfit person to

proper person to have that care ana

THE history of the case shows that 1t
would be unsafe for the child TO De IN

titioner, and that the petitioner himself
cannot be trusted with the child under
such circumstances that he might take
1t away. The court would be unwilling
to make any order that should entitie
the petitioner to remove the child from
the presence OF the respondent. :.
The respondent has shown herself VIII

child and associate with it In her pres
ence. and even to go with the petitioner
and the child to various places in order

Inquiries From London.

He asserts that he had received sew
eral letters from members of the Music
Hall Guild Of London asking If 1t were
true that DR.. Crippens wife had died
at young Crippen's home in Los An
geles. These letters, said Crippen. as
serted that DR.. Crippen had announced
in London that such was the case.
Young Crippen says that he replied,
denying the report. He refused to dis
cuss the case further. He said he had
read the early reports of the case. and
that they were correct so far as he
knew.
