Judge Rosalsky

The familiar shock of bomb ex-

ing in a vacant apartment on the
ground floor where several windows
had been broken, apparently by the
concussion.
Detectives who came with Inspector
Owen Eagan of the Bureau of Combus-
tibles noticed a long. narrow wooden
box planted beneath a window of the
room in which the explosion had
scorched the floor. 1t was the only bit
of furniture in the place.
In it they found one can OF black
powder, three grades of smokeless pow.
der. five boxes of rife cartridges, re-
loading tools, fuses, scraps OF metal
and lead slugs and several iron pipe
elbows about quarters OF an inch
in diameter.
Eagan fingered the pipe elbows curl
ously. II was Just such a contraption,
packed with explosives, scraps of metal
and slugs, that had gone off when he
opened a box several years ago IN
Judge Otto A. Rosalsky's apartment in
the Hendrick Hudson. That adventure
cost the inspector a couple Of fingers.
Neighbors said that until Thursday
the rooms had been occupied by Martin
Paternoster, a barber, who now lived
across the street, at 329 East lO6th
Street The detectives called on him,
but he wasn't at home. They found
four shotguns, which they took with
them TO the East 104th Street station.

he had no takers.
None of the betting commissioners
or others with money TO wager on the

(By Cable 10 Tho Tribune.l

London, Nov. 5.-The AustroHun-
garian and German Emperors have Of
ficially proclaimed independence for
Poland Official announcements made
IN Vienna and in Berlin tonight con-
flrmed yesterdays reports to that ef-
feet. The administration OF the new
Poland as an autonomous state by the
Central Powers began at noon to-day.
The government machinery is to be
evolved gradually from a military ad-
ministration, and at the end of the war
working organization will be turned
over, it is intended, to the Poles.
The most startling development in
the days news of the plans for the
new Poland concerned the frontiers OF
the future state. Emperor Francis
Joseph practically informed the Aus
trian Premier last night, according to
an official statement received here to-
cay, that the new Poland would con-
sist entirely Of Russian territory. At
least he said that Galicia would have
self-government after the war. thus
intimating that it would continue un-
der the Austrian crown. This is taken
here to put an end to the Polish hopes
of united Poland, composed of Rus
sian, Austrian and German Polands.
The Austrian Emperor instructed the
Premier to prepare for the change in
Galician government.
News Spreads Rapidly
News of the proclamation spread rap
idly through Austria-Hungary and Ger
many to-day and was hailed every

! interpreted as evidence that the Cen
tral Powers feel strong enough from
military standpoint to realize the task
thus begun.
Baron Mumm, adviser to the Ger
man Foreign Office, declared last night
that the proclamation was an earnest
of the good intentions Of the Central
Powers toward the Poles and proved
TO the world that they were the real
friends of the little nations.
There is apparently some dispute be-
tween the two rulers as TO who shall
govern the new state. The Kaiser, ac-
cording to reports, seeks to make
Prussian prince the king, while Fran
els Joseph wants to proclaim himself
the monarch. Eithe-, it is said, would
order a general mobilization TO defend
the independence Of the country
against the Russians or any one else.
The form of government established
is an autonomous hereditary mon
archy. The Polish provinces occupied
by the Germans will be governed as
Warsaw has been governed since its
capture. For the present General Won
Beseler, former military governor Of
Belgium, will be in chief authority.
An electoral system is to be estab-
lished in the new state, based on COM
munity interest rather than on geo.
graphical boundaries. The people Of
every city of over 10000 inhabitants
are to be divided into six classes, each
! of which will control an equal num-
