We believe we now are close to the persons responsible for the outrage" acting Divisional Chief Phillip J. Bar ry of the department of justice said today. we have descriptions from various witnesses who saw the man believed to have exploded the bomb, and these descriptions tally"
 Secret service officers worked on the theory that the explosion was the act of members or sympathizers of the l. W. w, in revenge for the recent conviction of s3 of their members be- fore Judge Landis.
 The fact that the bomb was placed near a large radiator and close to the wall of the building at the Adams street entrance is believed to have caused it's force to be expended back ward and downward, probably saving the lives of many who were in the ln- terior of the post office. The four ! persons killed were near the Adams street entrance, just outside which were found the bodies of three of the victims, a girl entering the building. a Great Lakes Jackie also about to enter and a mail carrier on his way tn work The fourth victim, a mail carrier, was leaving the building, hav- | ing just finished work.

HOPE SETTLEMENT iOF TROUBLE HERE
 MAY BE EFFCTED
Explanation by Eidlitz of His Award Creates An
 Optimistic Feeling Here.

According to a telegram received in Bridgeport last night by E. B. Woods, heading the section of the National War Labor Board now 'n the city to attempt has been made to bar classifi- cation for the machinists and toolma- kesr in the decision rendered by Otto M. Eidlitz The telegram read:
 Tn regards 10 the inquiry of ;he Secretary of War as to the meaning Of certain findings made by me in the Bridgeport swarG, I beg 10 say that I felt that it was not fair for me to establish classification of trade and minimum wage at the time, un- der all the conditions existing at Bridgeport, but in view of the fact that the representatives of the em- ployers and employees on the National War Labor board had agreed that col lective bargaining should be instituted at Bridgeport, and in addition that . local board with equal representation of employees and employers was to be inaugurated that this board with the
 
 questions on which the parties to the controversy were not in agreement.
 Tt would be within the province of this local board to create other sub- sidiary boards and 1t is not the intent to bar the establishment of ciassifica- ton of trade and minimum wage.
 Tn other words, it was recognized that serious controversy existed at Bridgeport, and it was not fair to ad- just arbitrarily without proper discus sion and a reasonable time for con- ference; hence the six months period for this board, with the help of the employers and employees, to devise ways and means to adjust the contro- "ersy. It is to be noted also that the award gives the right to either party to appeal to the National War Labor Soard- at any tirne.'
 When the text of the telegram sent by Otto NJ. Eidlitz became generally known today an air of optimism spread throughout the city and it was felt that it would be only a matter of hours before the entire trouble would be adjusted to the satisfaction of all.

The outfit has radius of 50 miles and has been in operation for the last six months. The house is located next door to the Union Metallic Cart ridge Co.'S plant.
 The attention of the Secret Service men was called to the fact that flashes of 8 mysterious nature were observed on many nights by neighbors and in- mediately an investigation started. Across the street from the house bear ing the number 1927, is a small corn patch and it was in this shelter that the government agents waited and watched.
 For three weeks from dark to dawn the vigil was kept up. Everyone who cane and went from the house was closely scrutinized, but it was not until late last night the watchers were re- warded by series of Morse code flashes accompanied by the machine gur like crack of the powerful cleo tric curl ent.
 The watchers were we'll acquainted with the Morse system. but the con- versa7ior, which was being sent over the instrument was urintelligible to them as it was in a secre. code.
 When the time appeared ripe the federal men descended upon the house and arrested Charles Mudry. s years of age, who stated he is a stu dent learning to operate the irstru . mcht. Cpon examir;lion of the in- stru11erlt the federal agents discovered that it was hooked Gp to powerful pa' ,c:res which gave it a radius of l 90 miles which is r1uch greater than any student instruments.

Upon being cross examined Mudry
 satd he was learning vii eless operat-
 ing from another man much older.
 The federal agents know this man md
 stated that he is a former operator on board an ocean going steamship. TheE: declined to state whethe: he is
 an enemy alien or not.
 Upon being questioned the govern
 ment experts admitted the instrument operated by Mudry and his instructor
 ships far out at sea.
 Residents in the neighborhood of where the raid was made have all been keyed up to nervous pitch for the past few months since rumors of
 secret message being sent to the enc
 my were first started by those who saw the mysterious flashes from the Mudry house.
 | The Army Intelligence men who pulled off the coup last night said they
 underwent considerable torment for | the past three weeks owing to the
 myriads of mosquitoes that infested l the corn patch they used to conceal them while they watched the house. When questioned upon the matter | today the government men refused to
 state whether or not in their opinion | message have been transmitted to | U-boats off the coast of America, but admitted that it would be more than possible to use the instrument they
 seized for that purpose. Many arrests are expected in con-
 nection with the affair and at the present time the Mudry boy is under
 the closest surveillance and investiga- ! ton.

 The advance of the Americans in force began at 4 o'clock this morning and patrols, one after another, have been going over all day and meeting sharp resistance at some points.
 Substantial progress has been made by the Americans.
 Near Bazoches the Americans were advancing along the highway north of the river, while a little to the east they were south of the river.
 Smoke arising from behind the Ger. man lines has been observed for the last few days. In some instances tho cause is known to have been the ex plosion of ammunition dumps fired tl direct hits from Allied batteries, bu the increasing number of smoke col umns has given rise to the suggestion that the Germans are burning sucl of their depot structures and supple as 1t ie inadvisable to remove.

 While the situation in the nortl shows that the Allies are fast drivini the enemy to a territory less suscepti ble of defense and approaching thei objectives at Lille, Armentieres an Cambrai, the Franco-American force on the southern end of the battle iron have reached a stage in their forwar movement to menace the German oc cupation of the territory north of tn Aine Gen.

Between the Ailette and the Aisne the French also are gaining ground They have crossed the Aisne at sev- eraI points northeast of Soissons and have taken the town of Missy sur Aisne on the northern bank, where they already were in possession or Buoy le Long. Farther north on this front they have taken the towns or Brave and Clamecy.
 The Franco-American operation on the Vesle front has been extended farther eastward toward Rheims, and new crossings have been effected on the F mile front between VentzauX and Ionchery, seven miles west Of Rheims.
 In the north the Germans are con- tinuing to move backward along the Flanders front. The British are ac- ceIerating the retirement by sharp attacks, in one of which they captur- ed the village of F'loegsteert They have regained their April line on the southern part of this front from Neuye Chapelle to Givenchy and have even pushed beyond it in spots to the eastward of Givenchy.
 The Germans still are clinging to the Messines ridge, the highest ground of this sector, but from the manner in which they are forced back farther south it seems doubtful whether they will be able to hold, it much longer.
 On the Douai-Cambrai front and immediately to the south the enemy gives signs of stiffening resistance, but nevertheless the British have moved farther ahead at various points. Their most notable gain was southeast of Berfincourt, where they took addi- tional ground east of the Canal du Nord and captured Melville Bour- tonval.
 The Germans made an effort to dis lodge Field Marshal Haig's forces from their position along the canal, east of Cambrai, attacking at Inchy en Artois. They were repulsed, however, as they were farther south in an at tack east of Manancourt.
 London, Sept. 5.---Mar5ed progress was made by the British last night along the Flanders front, today's war office report says Ploegsteert village and hill 6S, southwest of Messines, have been captured.
 On the Dys front the British hold the general line of Voormezeele, Wul- verghem, Ploegsteert, Nieppe, Laven- tie and Givenchy.
 South of Neuve Chapelle as far as Givenchy we have regained the old line held by us prior to April and east of Givenchy we have occupied poreions Of the old German positions.
 On the southern battle front the enemy strongly attacked our new po- sitions at Inchy en Artois yesterday evening but was repulsed after sharp fighting.
 We have improved our positions south of Moeuvres and east of Her mics and have taken Neuville Bour- jonval.
 "The enemy counter attacked yes terday evening east of Manancourt and was repulsed. Fighting has taken place also in the neighhorhood of Pe- ronne and our line has been improved slightly.
 During the last four days the Brit ish troops have taken more than 16, 900 bprisoners and more than 100 guns"
