FOR HOLT BOMBS
Police Unable to Find Trace of
Sixty Missing Sticks of
Dynamite.
MUENTER IDENTIFICATION
REGARDED AS COMPLETE
Authorities Fail to Learn of Ac-
completes, if Any-Suicide's
Finances Limited.

NEW YORK, July S-Police authori-
ties continued today their investiSa-
tons to ascertain whether Frank Holt
had planted bombs on board any
steamships now on their way across
the Atlantic ocean. AS result of
wireless warnings, reassuring messages
had been received from the captains
of the SaXonia and Philadelphia, in
mid-Atlantic, saying that those steam
ships had been searched for bombs and
nothing found. These were the two
vessels mentioned by Holt in his let
ter to his wife in Dallas, when he
wrote that one of them should sink
July I.
Further inquiry was conducted by the
police today 20 discover what had be-
come of the sixty sticks of dynamite
missing from Hollis store Of explosives
hidden here. Although it appeared that
Holt had bought 40 per cent dynamit
that found in his trunk was the SO per
cent kind. This suggested a POSSIBLE
ity that all his explosives had not
been found.
Find No Accomplices.
Thus far the police authorities have
any accomplices in the making or
placing of his bombs. Police Commits
soner Woods said the indications were
that Holt had worked alone.
Arrangements had been made to hold
an inquest on Hollis suicide today. His
identification as Erich Muenter, in
dicted in Cam bridge, Mass. for the
murder of his wife. was regarded by
the authorities as complete.

had so far recovered yesterday as to be
able to walk about his house at Glen
Cove. and his family hoped that today
the financier would be able to go out
doors for the first time since he was
shot
Feared Identification.
by his growing fear that he was soon
to be identified as Muenter was the
statement made by District Attorney
Lewis J. Smith of Nassau county.
However, an incident which the au-
strengthen their belief that Holt was
Muenter, occurred here when Thomas
j. Reidy, attorney Of record for Holt,
received from Hollis relatives in Dallas
the information necessary to get a
death certificate 1t said that Holt was
born near Milwaukee, Wis. and that
his fathers name was Frank Holt and
his mothers name unknown. Muenter,
the authorities recalled, was born in
Germany.
Hollis Finances Limited.
Mr.. Reidy said that the limited
finances of Holt proved to him that the
man was not operating with any one.
When he left Cornell. Reidy said, Holt
had $500. OF this he gave his wife
$500 to buy lot in Texas. Holt had
but $40 of the remaining 5000 on him
when arrested. Reidy said.
District Attorney Smith declared that
while he believed some one of the Jail
authorities was negligent Tuesday
night in permitting the door to Hollis
cell to remain open, there will be no
further investigation of the incident, al
least so far as he is concerned.

Closing of Station Opposed.

The Department Of Commerce expressed
to Secretary Lansing the opinion that it
was imperative to maintain communica-
ton with Germany and Austria: that the
station should not be closed altogether.
and suggested that a matter Of equity
to all it be taken over by the navy.
This action simply MEANS" said Secre-
tary Redfield. that the Sayville station
is still open for every righteous purpose. :"
During investigation of the Sayville sta
ton several complaints were made re-
garding the character of messages trans
mtted which, it was declared, referred
to the sailing of ships which might be
endangered in the war zone.
Tuckerton Stations Transfer.
The wireless station at Tuckerton.
N. j., was taken over last September
by the government. Both stations now
are able to communicate directly with
Germany, but there has been from the
start a restriction prohibiting the
sending of cipher messages unless code
books were deposited with the naval
censors The same rule will be con-
tinued.
Originally, the object of the censor
ship was to prevent communication
with belligerent ships at sea. because
it was held that such communication
was a violation of the principles OF

fact that of 204 motormen and 166
conductors who were eligible to share
| in the merit system all but eight
motormen and six conductors had
efficiency set by the company and
would share in awards.
He spoke of the fact that the system
had been established to bring the men
and the company closer together and
of how the system in the past seven
years had improved the efficiency of the
service and reduced the number of &C
cidents of all classes.
Under the regulations of the serv-

FORMER YUKONER MAY
 GET A BIG ESTATE

Ralph Elliot, well known old time mine operator, who was heavily inter- ested in properties above discovery on Bonanza creek, may come in for big fortune, says the Dawson News. His wife, from whom he had, seem ingly, been living apart for some time. died recently in Buffalo, New York, and it is reported in a letter just received from Los Angeles. where he has been living for num- Der of years, that he may inherit the whole estate which she left, and which is said to have aggregated quarter of a million dollars. In the mail which arrived last evening from Los Angeles a former Klondlker writing to the News, says that Mr.
 Elliot has gone east to look after his interest in the estate, and that 1t looks favorable to his getting it all.

NEW LINER CALLS
 FOR THE FIRST TIME

The steamship Kansas City, Capt. Gus Nord, of the Alaska Steamship Company, called at Seward this morn ing for the first time. The Kansas City formerly was passenger steam CT plying on the Atlantic Coast be- tween New York City and Panama Canal, and more recently in the coast wise traffic between Portland, Oregon and San Francisco. She is a large steamer, her tonnage about 4,2OO 400 tons heavier than the North western, the largest steamer plying between this city and Seattle, and nearly 100 tons heavier than the Victoria, the largest boat in the AL aska Steamship service. Her freight carrying capacity is very large, be- ing able to handle 5000 tons of freight with ease. The Kansas City makes this one run to carry freight, accommodating no passengers. She will be put in the steel yards and dry dock immediately on her return to Seattle from this trip for complete overhauling and revising. At pres ent her passenger capacity is about equal to that of the Alameda, Mari posa and Northwestern, but when overhauled she will have much more room to accommodate travellers, and will enter the local passenger service next Spring.
 Capt. Gus Nord was master of the Alameda last year for a few trips, and was taken off the steamship lief ferson, running from Seattle 70 Southeastern waters, to make this | trip. Purser Lankin has been with the Alaska S. S. Go. for many years.
 The Kansas City loaded 1,50O tons of copper concentrates at Latouche before reaching Seward, thus account ing for her delay. She arrived in Seward this morning at 3:3O and after unloading about 60 tons of freight for the local merchants she sailed at 1O:15 for Anchorage where she will unload nearly l,5OO tons of | freight.
 The Kansas City carried mail from Seattle here and mail going to An, chorage.

BILL JAMES BUYS
 OUTFIT FOR NORTH

SEATTLE-Bill James, one of the discoverers of the Chisana gold fields, is in Seattle to buy complete hy- draulic outfit for his property. He will take the outfit in this winter, hauling it over the Russel glacier. With Mrs. James he will visit the Panama-Pacifc exposition before re- turning to the North this winter. James says that the camp has been fairly quiet during the past season because of lack of rains, making the side creeks dry. There has been a good head of water in the main creek, however, and the large workings have been operated right through. He re- cen v sent out his seasons cleanup amounting to nearly $1OO,OOO.

FIGHT WITH KNIVES ON
 STEAMER NORTHWESTERN

TACOMA, Oct. p. - When the steamer Northwestern, now at the shelter discharging ore, reached the Sound Saturday night from Alaska, she landed at Seattle q Japanese can nery worker suffering from four knife wounds, and another Japanese in irons as the result of a lively battle that took place in the steerage quart CTS of the vessel.
 From other Japanese passengers Capt. Hunter learned that K. Oku mata, the wounded man, started the fight, and S. Serisaura, the man in irons, finished it. According to the witnesses of the fight, Okumata was the original aggressor, attacking Serisaura with a six-foot bar. The latter grappled with his assailant, and Okumata drew knife. Serisaura then drew his knife and stabbed Oku mate twice in the back, once in the face and also severed his right thumb. Serisaura was taken in charge by the United States marshal at Seattle when the steamer arrived there.-Ex.
