BOMB WRECkS ROOM
 IN CAPITOL BUILDING
OFFICIALS BELIEVE EXPLOSIVE WAS PLACED BY A CRANK
 WISHING SENSATION.

Washington. A tremendous ex- plosion, believed to have been caused by some kind of bomb or internal n.a- chine, wrecked the public reception room on the east side of the capitol building. No one was injured.
 Officials believe that the explosive was placed by crank who desired to create sensation. Visitors were al- lowed in the room during the day and a timed machine might have been left without attracting attention.
 Superintendent Woods of the cani- tol building, summoned by panic stricken watchmen, made a hurried investigation, then telephoned for an expert on explosives. Until the ex- pert has made his report no official statement will be made.
 Part of the ceiling and side walls of the room were shaken down, a huge mirror and a crystal chandelier shattered and the doors blown open One of the doors led into the offices of the vice president and is said not
 
 The building had been closed since dark and there was no one in it but the watchmen and telephone switch board operators. Watchman Jones, on the floor below at the east ell. trance, said he was blown from his chair by the explosion.
 The report could be heard for a mile and in few minutes crowd of excited people had gathered on the east plaza. Lights had been switched on and excited officials were rushing back and forth on two floors of the great building.
 A strong odor permeated the build ing, but no one seemed able to detect just what it was.
 While some officials thought the ex plosion was the work of an irrespoL. sible crank others suggested that it might have been perpetrated by a person desiring to demonstrate disap proval of some of the policies of the American government. It was appar ent that there was no intent to 'ie stroy life, as it Is generally knowr the room is empty at night

HOLT SOUGHT ID
 BLOW UP LINERS
DYNAMITE PLACED ON STEAM FRS sAxONIA AND 7HILADEL-
 PHIA BEFORE SAILING.
SAYS HOLT WAS MUENTER
History of Erratc Professor Who Took Own Life After Carnival of
 Crime, Reveals Eccentric Acts.

New York. - The dead hand of Frank Holt, bomb-maker, would-be as. sassin and alleged wife murderer, reached out over the Atlantic and menaced two transatlantic liners with nearly 1000 women, men and children abroad.
 Somewhere on the ocean Holt wrote his wife, the liner Saxonia or the Philadelphia-he was not sure which, would be destroyed. A dynamite bomb containing 30 pounds of explosive which Holt is known to have re- ceiyed and which has not been ac- counted for is believed by the polio to be the means Holt had chosen to destroy the ship.
 While Holt lay a suicide in his cell at Mineola, L. L, where he was taken after his attempt to assassinate J. F. Morgan, the wireless crackled warn ing over the Atlantic telling of his threat to blow up a ship; and the mys- tery of his life was cleared away with his positive identification as Erich Muenter, the alleged wife mur- derer who fled from Harvard Univer- sity in 1906.
 Nothing more dramatic in the last few crowded days of Holt's life has come to light than the warning of destruction that was uncovered after his death. His confession that he placed the bomb which damaged the capitol at Washington, his attempted assassination of MT. Morgan, the grow ing belief that he was Erich Muenter eliminating in his positive identifica- tion-in death-as Muenter and his sensational suicide by leaping 20 fee. from the top of his cell to the floor, formed series of events to which the threatened destruction of the Philadelphia or the Saxonia fitted as a startling climax.
 The powerful wireless stations of the Navy Department were enlisted in the effort to prevent the threatened disaster at sea- In answer to the from the captain of the Philadelphia which said everything aboard had been identified and that all was we'll The Saxonia also found no evidence of bomb aboard.
 The police learned that Holt had bought 100 Illuminating caps, 100 feet of fuse, 100 electrical explosive caps and 200 sticks of dynamite from To- cal powder company. This order was delivered to Holt at Central Park, Long Island, on June 29

BRITISH STEAMSHIP
 HIT BY SUBMARINE
NINE KILLED AND EIGHT MUIR ED WHEN ANGLO-cALlFOR-
 MAN IS SPELLED.

London. The big British steam. ship Anglo-CaJifornian limped into Queenstown harbor veritable sham bles after having outrun German submarine. Her wireless apparatus. her bridge and upper works shot away, her tunnels pierced and her decks filtered with dead and dying, she accomplished the feat vainly at- tempted by the ill-fated Armenian a week ago in the same waters.
 Like the latter vessel, she was la den with transport animals for the British army-a cargo of horses shipped from Montreal on June 2l. Panic among the latter during and following the bombardment to which the Anglo-Californian was subjected added to the horror of the situation.
 The commander who brought her through the hail of shot, shell and ri- file fire-Captain Parslow-paid for the achievement with his life. He remained on the bridge amid the in- ferno until blown off by a shell. The officers who assumed his post found his body with one arm and one leg shot away.
 The others of the crew who shared his fate were like the captain, horri- bly, mutilated The dead number nine Eight others were desperately wounded, and nearly all oa board suf- fered more or less in the baptism of fire
 The Anglo-California Is staunch steel ship of 1888 tons and the sec ond in size of a fleet of six fine steamships owned by the Nitrate Pro- ducers' Steamship Company, Ltd. Her home port is London. She was built three years ago at Sunderland and is 450 feet long, 56 feet in beam, with a depth of 36 feet Two decks and shelter give her smart appearance, and she is driven by powerful en- zines. Their worth and her rating of Il al, accorded by Lloyd's, was fully sustained by her feat in reaching port

GERMANY'S REPLY
 IS UNAVOIDABLE
AMBASSADOR GERARD HAS BEEN ASKED TO coNTRuE PRES
 DENTS NOTE.
U. S. VESSELS DEMOLISHED
Declares United States and Germany Have Understanding That Has
 Not Been Made Public.

Washington. - Certain conyersa, tfons between Ambassador Gerard and the German foreign office on the note of reply to the United States from Germany have been received at the State Department and telegraph ed to the president at Cornish.
 While Secretary of State Lansing declined to state the nature of MT Gerard's communication, it is under stood MT. Gerard was asked to con. strue the presidents note to Ger many in certain particulars, and that he referred the inquiry to Washing ton
 The State Department holds that these memoranda are of an official ma. ture and could not be made public without the consent of Germany.
 It is stated here that Germany wants to know precisely how far the presidents note affects her general policy of submarine warfare. The text of the presidents first note was regarded as a notice to Germany that fer submarine warfare must cease al. together Subsequently officials o1 the department explained that the president meant only the operations of the German submarines should be restricted to international law re. quirements and that the chief concern of the United States was that such warfare should be conducted without interference with the American yes sells and American citizens on "un- armed merchantmen" of the belliger. ents.
 Although the president in his sec ond note, in a short paragraph, reit, erated the general objections in his first communication on the subject, the belief now exists that the admin. istration's attitude has been material ly modified in view of the friendly at. titude of Germany and her apparent desire to regard strictly and legally the rights of all American merchant. men and the rights of all American citizens on legal business who might be on the unarmed vessels of the bel ligerents.
 There is every reason to believe that the United States and Germany have an understanding not yet made public officially as to American ships and American citizens on ships wherever found. It is certain that to carry out that agreement the United 
 States notifies MT. Gerard promptly when an American vessel sails and at what hour approximately she will ar rive in the German war zone It is conspicuous that the United States has had no cause for complaint late. ly of Germans treatment of Ameri can ships.
