GOV. Foss GUARDED
Because of Intimation of Black Hand
Visitation.

Boston. Jan. IS.Intimat tions that
Governor Foss was to be made the OBJ
iect of an attack by black hand men,
presumably because OF his activity in
the Lawrence strike situation, which
was started by Italians, caused unusual
precautions to be taken to guard the
governor last night. His home in ia
maica Plain was surrounded by armed
guards, while half dozen Italian po-
licemen in plain clothes are scouting the
North End for bomb throwers. Officers
are also conducting an investigation at
Lawrence.
The first indication that the governor
had been threatened came late Tuesday,
when his gnard at the State House,
usually consisting of one state police
officer, was doubled Officers in plain
clothes were also stationed at the State
House entrance and all who went into
the building were closely scrutinized. 1t
was reported that the black hand agents
were coming from New York, and the
Boston police communicated with the
authorities in New York with a request
that they guard outgoing boats and
trains and hold up any suspicious char
acters headed for Boston. The governor
expressed no alarm and would
not even admit that threats had been
made against him.
