SIX STICKS DYNAMITE
near GAYNOR'S WINDOW
Discovery Causes Stir at New
York City Hall

New York, Aug. 22.-Six sticks OF
what is believed to be dynamite were
found yesterday under a window of
Mayor Gaynor's suite of offices IN the
city hall. Fire Commissioner Johnson,
passing at the time, telephoned the bu-
reau of combustibiles and ordered one
of the inspectors to come to the city
hall to examine the find and deter
mine it's nature.
From the superficial examination the
inspector said he thought the sub
stance was dynamite. He took the
sticks to headquarters for further
test. They were found by the jani-
tor of the building.
Fire Commissioner Johnson, exam
ined the sticks specifically with In
spector Egan, said there was some
thing attached to one of the sticks
which might be copper wire or a
fuse After an analysis inspectors re ,
ported that the stuff was $40 per cent.
dynamite" a sufficient amount to
have demolished the city hall, and that
decorating caps were found to be
placed in the proper position for ex
ploding it. A fuse, piece of Chi
nese punk and three burned matches
were found later near the spot where
the dynamite was picked up. The dy
Mantle and decorating caps were
wrapped in Italian cambrick and tied
with a red and blue Irvine string.
The six sticks were in one package
and the package was within few feet
of where Mayor Gaynor was sitting at
the time it was found.
Mr.. Gaynor frequently receives
threatening letters. but tonight he
would make no statement regarding
the possible connection between any
previous threat by mail and the dyna-
mite of today 1t is just three years
ago this month that he was shot in the
neck by a crank and so badly wound
ed that for several days it was feared
he would die.
Experts of the bureau of combusti-
bles said the only thing that prevented
a disastrous explosion was the pres
ence of a strip of cotton which was
wound so tightly about the base OF
the fuse that spark could not reach
the detonator.
One edge of the dynamite stick was
scorched.
Police authorities say laborers some
times carelessly drop dynamite sticks
near their blasting excavations. There
is an excavation shaft on the Broad
way side of City Hall park, leading to
the new subway construction Detec.
tives are making a close investigation
of this location, although the contrac-
tors declare they do not use 40 per
cent dynamite in their operations.
