Police Say Attempt Was Made
to Blow Up the First
National.

May Have Been Strikers Re-
venge on Doubleday,
Page L Co.

MrNEoLA, l.. T., Aug. A.-Police Cap
tain Appleby passed the First National
Bank, at Main and Front streets. on his
rounds at o'clock this morning and
noticed nothing out Of the ordinary.
Half an hour later he retraced his steps
and saw a suspicious looking bundle
wrapped In paper with long fuses sticking
out lying In front of the plate glass door
Of the bank. He gingerly picked II UP.
tucked Il under his arm and took II to the
home Of Police Magistrate John Puhler
The captain routed the Magistrate out
Of bed and together they made SUPER
ficial examination OF the package. They
dug through three layers Of wrapping
paper and found coils Of hemp rope wound
tightly around a cylinder shaped tube.
Connected with the device were wires
six inches long and two fuses fourteen
inches long leading to percussion caps
Deciding that discretion was the better
part Of valor. they didn't try to pry into
it, secrets. but dumped the thing into the
Buhler family washtub and covered II
with " water.
Just what was done with the bomb
could not be learned up to a late hour
last night. Capt. Appleby said that he
was continuing his Investigations and
couldn't tell anything about the bomb or
its makeup. as such Information might
possibly defeat the ends OF Justice.
1t Is known. however. that the police
inquiry leads in the direction Of an Ital-
ian who is supposed to know something
about the Internal machine
One Of the paper wrappers bore the
inscription: "B. II. W. 80. n. Y" The
police interpreted this as meaning II
