ANARCHISTIC OUTRAGES EXPECTED
 TO SPEED CONGRESSIONAL ACTION
Campaign of Death Seems Directed at Officials Who Combat Bolshevism-Plot
 Seems to Be Nation Wide.

Washington, June 3.-Widespread bomb explosions last night, apparent ly a sequel to the unsuccessful May day outrages when internal machines were mailed broadcast from New 1ork to government officials and men prominent in public life, were be- lleved by officials here to be another move in an anarchist movement for the overthrow of organized govern ment in the United States, rumors of which were said to have been called to the attention of members of con-
 gress and department of justice off, cials months ago.
 Plot Carefully Planned. Evidence that the plot was care I fully planned was contained in q pamphlet found at the home of At torney-Generai A. Mitchell Palmer. whose home in the fashionabIes sec t1on here was partly wrecked by a bomb, giving warning that a time has come when the social question's set clement can be delayed no longer un- less by war and with complete vic- tory for the international proletariat. Criminal Is Killed. The pamphlet, one of a large mum Der scattered about after the bon,h which had been intended to destroy MT. Palmer prematureIy exploded and blew to bits the author of the crime. was signed 'The anarchistic fight CTS" and undoubtedly was intended as signal to show the reign of ter rorism was on. MT. Palmer ha@abeen active in urging anti -Bolshevisn measures.
 Although apparently intended to dc FCr7NfN fnH- do, plosions, from a standpoint of loss of life, appeared to have been but { little more successful than those of May l. Fatalities resulting as report
 ed today were confined to the plotter himself at the Palmer home and New York where one to possibly three per-
 sons were killed In that case as
 here the body or bodies were so bad 1y scattered it was impossible to de- 1 termine just how many were slain Directed at Officials. As in the May day attempts, the bomb plot last night was directed, in majority of cases against public officials in various cities, men who have been active in suppression of or ganized lawlessness. As there was little difference in the time between the explosions with the exception of
 that in Washington, the police and government agents believe the in- struments of destruction were to be timed to explode at about the same hour. The fact that wearing apparel and anarchist literature were found
 at the Palmer home indicated to the
 police that the bomb exploded just
 as the dynamiter took it from the
 suit case under the front entrance to
 the building.
 Only One Clue Found.
 Copies of the pamphlets left bear.
 ing the caption "Plain Talk are in
 possession of the police and depart
 ment of justice officers and may pos
 sibly furnish the only clue to the
 identity of the plotters. Printed on
 what likely was intended to be red
 paper, pamphlets bear no distinguish
 ing marks, and might easily have
 been printed in any small print shop.
 The cities in which explosions oc-
 cured were New York, Washington,
 Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia,
 Boston, Paterson and NeWtonvilIe,
 Mass. +
