BOMB MAKER

ANARCHISTS HOME GIVES UP IN
FERNAL BOXES ALL READY
FOR USE IN MURDER PLOT.
When In Act of Completing Destroyer
Rockefeller Was in Peril De-
tectiVes Reaffirm.

New York.-In the ruins of the Lex
ingtOn avenue tenement house, wreck
ed by the premature explosion of a
powerful bomb which killed Arthur
Caron and five other persons, the au-
thorities found evidence that Carson's
apartment was center for the distri-
button of infammatory literature,
which was printed there, and that at
the time of the explosion it was bomb
factory, filed with the ingredients of
death-dea1ing missiles.
A small printing press, revolution
airy pamphlets and circulars, an cleo
trio dynamo, two electric batteries,
cartridges and bits of steel were
among the articles uncovered.
That a demonstration, halted by the
bungling of some one who was prepar-
ing an Internal machine for its mis-.
sion, was planned against possibly the
entire Rockefeller family in Tarry-
town, is the theory upon which the au-
thorities are working.
Two of those killed in the wrecked
apartment were prominent agitators
who were to be placed on trial Tar
rytown on charges of disorderly con-
duct in connection with the campaign
of demonstration inaugurated against
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., as a protest
against his attitude in the Colorado
coal mine strike.
The body of the fifth victim of the
explosion was found. 1t was that OF
Charles Berg, known in Industrial
Workers of the World circles as "the
big Swede," an associate of Carson.
Two other victims were Charles Han
son and Mary Claves. The woman
lived in an apartment next to sAe one
occupied by Caron and his associate.
