FEDERAL PROBE
OF BOMB SENT BY
MAIL TO GEN. OTIS

Los Angeles, Sept. Ito that area
Of the city which comprises the bus
mess section and a portion of the
cheap hotel district, the federal, city
and county authorities confined their
energies, today, in the search for the
sender of the dynamite bomb which
was received through the mails, yes
terday, by General Harrison Gray
Otis, proprietor of the Los Angeles
Times. All were agreed that the
maker of the bomb lived IN this dis
trict because the package containing
the bomb was placed in a. parcel post
box in the downtown section and car
ried to postoff1ce station Z which han
dies mail for the greater part of the
business district and large section
of the east side.
The dynamite used in the Internal
machine was that extremely Eigh pow
cred explosive known as ''85 per cent
the same as was used by James B.
Mcnamara in blowing up the Times
building, October L, 1910. The legal
limit for explosives in Los Angeles
county is 40 per cent. nitro and police
and county officials directed efforts.
today, to learning what purchases of
SO per cent. dynamite had been made
at powder factories recently.
One of the theories discussed, today,
was that the bomb might have been
esnt by some foreigner agitated over
the Mexican question and the posi-
bility of Intervention by the United
States.

SCHMIDT STOLE
EASTER MONEY.
ROBBED PRIEST

New York, Sept. 1.-Two more
crimes took their place, today. on the
police record in connection with Hans
Schmidt, who already has confessed
that he was a murderer and counter
feiter. In ransacktng Schnidt's apart
ment detectives found evidence that
Schmidt had stolen $500 from the
Easter collection at st. Joseph's
church and that he had robbed a visit
ing priest who spent the night at st.
Joseph's rectory as 8, guest OF the local
clergy. An empty purse found in
Schmidt's rooms, today, proved to be
one which the visiting priest had lost
not long ago. Schmidt still insisted
today, that neither Ernest A. Muret,
his dentist friend, nor Anna Aumuller,
the girl he murdered, knew anything
about his counterfeiting operations In
reply to a, written question sent TO ms
cell, he wrote:
Gamma knew nothing of my plans TO
solve the social question by creating
money for all the poor people here ano
abroad
schmidt maintains that he made bo-
gus money from philanthropic motives
only.
The case against Muret made little
progress today, so far as was known
outside the police department. Detec-
tives continue to receive information
casting light upon his past lift

hope of finding the head of the Au-
muller girl. Today, they investigated
a story about solitary fisherman who
hooked something heavy last night IN
the North river Just as the sup
posed catch was nearing the surface
it dropped off the hook, leaving g, long
human hair, said to resemble in color
the hair of Anna Aumulller.
Detectives investigating Schmidts
record learned this afternoon that he
had rented another apartment at 1852
Eighth avenue, under the name OF
Jacob Schneider. This apartment was
rented on September s, three days aft
err the murder of the Aumuller girl
In it the police found clothing be-
longing to the priest and a woman's
wearing apparel, presumably that of
Anna Aumuller.

THAW PLAYS PIANO
FOR HOTEL PATRONS

Colebrook, N H. Sept. 17-Leavtng
here this morning for the state capital,
Harry K. Thaw, fugitive from New
York, smiled and waved at the crowds
which greeted him on the way to the
railway station. His train was due at
Concord at 2:1o.
Thaw celebrated his court victory Of
yesterday over William Travers Jer-
ONE by playing the piano in the par1or
of the hotel where he had been quar-
tered here Around him sat an admir-
ing throng of hotel patrons.
For over an hour he was at the piano
and he would have played longer had
not his custodians, United States Mar
shall Mute and Sheriff Drew, told him
it was bed time.
Ex-Governor Stone of Pennsylvania
was the only lawyer here today. The
others. satisfied with their work in
having the federal habeas corpus
hearing indefinitely suspended, left
town last night to rest before the ex-
tradition hearing. Mr.. Jerome also
left. He will go to Concord, probably
on Monday of next week, to prepare
for the hearing.

HIGH SCHOOL
PUPILS HURLED
FROM PLATFORM

Poughkeepsie, N. z. Sept. IA tenn
porary platform, 16 feet above the
ground, on which 731 pupils of the
Poughkeepsie High school were group
ed for a photograph, gave way, this af-
ternoon. Fifteen pupils were injur-
ed; II of them were taken to the Vas
sar and General hospital. Most of
them suffered fractured arms and
legs. The platform on which they
were standing was 40 feet long, along
side the wall of the building.
The entire school body had been
grouped by superintendent of Schools
Shear and Schuyler Eek, superintend-
ent of the high school, and were fac
ing the camera when the platform
buck1ed, the middle portion saggtng to
the ground and the ends remaining in
their original position.
Into the v thus formed the 731 chill
dren were hurled. An examination OF
the platform showed that the bolts
used to hold the timbers in place had
broken. It was thought that none of
the injured would die.
