Shattered
BOMBER ONLY KILLED
Residences of Mayor of Cleveland,
Ohio, and Municipal Judge of Rox-
bury, Mass, Dynamited Last Night

A. Mitchell Palmer, Attorney
General of the United States, and
former Alien Property Custodian,
miraculously escaped death with his
family at 11:05 this evening when a
bomb shattered his residence at 2132
R street northwest, Washington.
When police resel 'es arrived at
the scene they found one unidenti-
fed man dead in the ruins. The ex-
plosion which was heard throughout
the city, broke hundreds of window
panes in the neighborhood.
Two pistols carried by the anar-
chist were shattered by the explos-
ion. The police found many pieces
of them.
An Italian dictionary, found across
the street from Attorney General
Palmer's' residence, the police be-
lievc, may prove an important clew.
Senator Claude A. Swanson, who
lives two doors from Attorney Gen
eral Palmer, at 213G f street, was
startled from his bed by the explos-
ion, and was one of the first on the
scene. He congratulated Palmer on
his escape.
A Gordon of police was thrown
around the block in which the Pal
mer residence is situated immedi-
ately on the arrival of the reserves.
The home of Harry L. Davis, ma
yor of Cleveland, and the home of
Judge in Pittsburgh were dyna-
mitcd shortly after midnight this
morning. Several Catholics churches
in Pennsylvania and New England
are reported to have been damaged
by bombs.
Boston, June 1.-THE home of Jus
tice Albert +. Hayden, of the Rox-
bury municipal court, at II Wayne
street, was severely damaged by an
explosion of unknown origin shortly
before midnight tonight.
No one was in the house at the
time, the Judge and his family, being
at their summer home at the sea-
shore.
