PUBLIC FUNERAL FOR
EXPLOSION VICTIMS
Associates Say Free Speech Advo-
Gates Were Killed by Bomb
Sent to Carson
POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING
Stepsister of One Dead Man Says
She Did Not Know Explosives
Were Kept in House
By associated Press

New York, July 6.-Michael Muir
ply, 10 years old, the only member of
the group of free speech advocates
who escaped with his life from the
fatal explosion on Saturday morning
that wrecked the tenement at 1926
Lexington avenue is being sought by
, every policeman and detective in New
York to-day as the one person most
likely to know the real story of what
occurred in the little fiat. Murphy dis
appeared after being in the hands of
the police before they were aware OF
the identity of h victims Of the ex-
! plosion. He visited a nearby police
station, was given clothes to replace
his own which were torn to bits, and
then dropped out of sight.
Just what charge could be placed
against Murphy the police say they
do not know, but it is believed he
might be induced to throw some light
on the aus of the explosion and per-
haps explain why alarm clocks and
other things used in the making of
bombs were kept in the Berger apart
ments.
Stcpsister Talks
Louise Berger, stepsister of Carl
Hanson, n of the dead men. who
lived in the fiat where the explosion
occurred, o remains firm in her first
story that she knew nothing about
what happened prior to the explosion,
and denied that she knew explosives
were kept in her rooms.
Miss Berger, Alexander Berkman
and other leaders of the free speech
movement with which Caron, Hanson
and Berg, the victims Of the explo-
sion, were identified, told the police
they believed the three men were
martyrs to a cause and as such they
proposed to honor them in death with
a public funeral service in Union
Berkman said that a number
of organizations were already making
plans to hold ar impressive public
funeral on Saturday afternoon next.
Rebecca Edison and Charles Plunkett
will also deliver addresses if they are
free at the time. The latter two are
to appear at the village court in Tar
rytown to-day to answer to rioting
charges. Berkman said the bodies of
the three men would be cremated.

FIRE ALARM
SUBMITTED BY BELL
[Continucd From First Pagel

specify clearly the location of his resi-
dence and depend upon the quick
mind of the girl at the switchboard
to call the apparatus or obtain the
assistance of the desk man at police
headquarters. Under these circum-
tances considerable time is lost, for
quite frequently the line cannot b,
cleared.
Furthermore, the number of phone
calls to which each firehouse tele-
phone is limited is 500; at times,
however, there nave been as many as
a thousand calls a year.
The New Plans
Plan No. l. as suggested by Local
Manager Watts, provides for the fol-
lowing at a total cost of $3.50: Switch
board and operators set, $50; first
trunk, $50; four additional trunks at
SAP each, $16S; 37stations at Sc each,
$222, 1SA miles, excess mileage at
$50 per mile, 1875.
Plan No. 2 includes the SANG cost
with fifteen miles of wiring, a differ
nee of $40 over the first plan.
Under the first plan a main and
extension telephone in the residence
of the chief and assistant fire chief, a
main and extension phone in each
frehouse, and five stations in the po-
lice station, all to be connected on
individual lines to the switchboard,
and five trunks between this switch
board and the city exchange.
The second plan embraces, in addi-
ton to the main and extension phone
services III the chief and assistant
chiefs residences, a main and an ex-
tension service group as follows:
Chiefs and assistant, same circuit;
Citizen and Mt. Vernon, same; Wash
ington and Paxton, same; Mt. Pleasant
Royal, same, and the Friendship,
Hope, Good Will and Susquehanna,
on individual circuits.
Mr.. Watts Letter
In his letter to Mr.. Taylor, Mr..
Watts points out the advantages of
the proposed system and disadvan-
tages of the present system, and says
in part:
We have to-day 5000 tele-
phones in service in this city, each
one of which is practically used
as a fire alarm box, and under
the present method each fire ap-
paratus is subject to calls from
the public at large. Many in
stances have occurred in cases of
small fires, where a party will
rush to the telephone and call
for a fire company and often
times they will think of a COM
pany which is located entirely
out of the district and call it to
come to their assistance; this
means a delay in getting to the
fire, to say nothing of the wear
and tea of the apparatus.
l could cite you many cases of
this kind which nave come to my
attention. In other words, you
have no supervision of telephone
calls for the fire apparatus. Then
again we have had many cases of
people calling up in their ex-
element and asking the operator

RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS.

Last week we cut off our mailing list
approximately four hundred names; next
week we will again use the Ratchet on sever
al who will have become d~elinquents. We
are unable to carry delinquent subscribers
on our list, because we have to swear to our
bona fide subscription list four times a year;
the Government compels US to send our pap
err to only those who PAY IN ADVANCE.
Consequently if your paper is stamped Dec
Ia" you will have to renew Immediately if
you desire to receive the Clarion any longer.
Many of those who were cut off last
week inquired as to our reason for having
chopped the list so numerically. Our rea-
son is as plain as day-the law compels US to
do so and we are firmly convinced that a
firm wishing to prosper must abide by the
laws of our country.
No one will be spared, not even our
closest friends and much less our relatives.
We will show no partially, no matter if one
of our subscribers is numbered among the
richest people in the state. EVERYBODY
must PAY IN ADVANCE to receive the
Clarion henceforth and for all times.
