TWO ARRESTS ARE
MADE IN EDDYSTONE
MUNITION BLAST

Washington, April 1l-A sweeping
investigation of the most searching
character is being conducted by doz-
ems of Government secret service op-
eratives into the Eddystone explosion
at Chester. Pa, which took toll OF
more than loo lives.
Two suspects were arrested this
morning by government agents at the
Chester Railway station. They were
about to board train. Federal
agents stopped and searched them.
They are being held. Their names
and what II any evidence was found
on them was not disclosed.
For the first time since the "mys
terious explosions in munitions
plants began. the Federal operatives
are working with absolutely free
hands. There are no Diplomatic en-.
tanglements" to impede their work
now. And, impressed by the magni.
tude of the crime and the terrible loss
of life, every government agency is
bending its fullest efforts to appre-
hendng its perpetrators. Little doubt
exists here but that the explosion was
a lob"
Absolute secrecy will surround ev-
cry move which the government
agents make. The union is on war
footing, and the investigations into
the holocaust are proceeding along
tie same basis. The perpetrators Of
the crime will be treated on war
basis once they are caught.

senting the Illinois Park Commission.
As result of this conference the
State Engineers were authorized to
communicate Immediately with the
bonding company, and arrange for a
conference here tomorrow,
The department advises against re.
pairing the Utica bridge, for the rea-
son that il is useless expense and
that the spans are unsafe for even the
lightest loads. 1heiy might stand for
couple of years and again might go
down any minute. The close of the
Utica bridge comes as result of a
fight between rival clay companies in
Eeer Park and Utica townships.
The Deer Parry concern objects to
building tramline across the bridge
by the Utica Fire Brick ald Clay Co.,
and as resnlt OF the objection The
inspection was ordered and the
bridge will be closed.
The State Highway department will
be represented here by County Super
intendent George l.. Farnsworth who
is in direct charge of the situation.
The close of the bridge, either for re-
pairs or replacing of the two spans
will neeessitate the operation OF a
ferry across the river during the
present summer.
