cupants of New York Build
ing Into Panic.

NEW YORK, June 16.-The explosion
of dynamite bomb in the hallway of a
First avenue tenement today blew out
doors and windows and badly wrecked

stricken when they found the stairway
exit blocked by the explosion and fled to
the fire escapes. Firemen had to remove
the majority of them by means of lad

letters to Frank Fassett q barber who
conducts shop on the first floor. The
bomb blew away a good part of the bar
bershop walls and caused other extensive
damage to the place.
