SECOND DEATH NOTE
DEEPENS PLOT CASE

GARY, Ind, Sept. 1.-More mystery
was thrown about the gigantic nation
wide plot that is believed to exist and
to have eliminated in the staying of
Rev. Edmund A. H. Kayser last week
when it was learned today that a
threat of death had been sent to Rev.
George j. Bendick, pastor Of the Holy
Trinity church in Tolleston, where
Mr.. Kayser held his pastorate. The
letter containing the threat was turn
ed over to Bishop Alerding Of Fort
Wayne, Ind. Scores of secret service
agents and detectives are working on
the plot In Gary and other places The
only tangible evidence of the plot Is
found In the twenty-five explosions in
the last thirty days in factories man.
ufacturing munitions for warning Eu-
ropean nations. Capture of the per.
petrators of the acts of violence is
the only hope of learning to what
deapths or heights the alleged con-
spiracy extends. Father Bendick is
strongly pro-Austrian in his beliefs
and utterances.

The instructions given by the COM
missioners asking the engineers to
make estimates on the probable ex-
pense of repairing the bridge with a
detailed description of every part
found defective, is causing the COM
missioners much more work than was
expected. In many cases it is impos.
sible to determine the exact condition
until part of the bridge is dismantled
SO that 1t will be impossible to get a
complete report on this one feature.
It is understood that the engineers
have practically decided that the
bridge cannot be repaired with any as
surance of safety in the future, II the
interurban cars are run over It, With.
in all probability they will find that
the bridge can be repaired satisfactor
lily II the interurban cars are kept off,
which is impossible on account Of the
franchise the company holds with the
city.
The report Of the engineers will be
completed Friday, according to one of
the engineers today.
