NITRo-eLYcERINE FOUND
UNDER SMALL BRIDGE

DOUGLAS. Ariz., Feb. 14.-Alert-
ress on the part of the military po-
lice today probably saved the Doug
las Y. NJ. C. A. building from being
blown to atoms by deadly bomb OF
unique design and which was filed
with nitroglycerine.
The bomb was found under a small
bridge that spans one of the small
canals on the east side OF the build
ing The clock on the bomb was set
for l0:3O and it was only few min
l,es before that hour that the infer
nal machine was found.
Whether the bomb was intended
for the Y. VI. c. A or not has not
been learned. but it is generally con
cedsd by the members OF the military
police and attaches of the depart
ment Of justice that regardless of
the person placing the bomb a; the
place found, the association building
and those in the immediate vicinity
would have been wrecked.
The bomb was turned over TO Cap
tain Wright of the military intelli-
gence department. who in turn de-
hvered it to the department OF JUS
lice officials.
The bomb consisted of a pasteboard
carton. in which was cocoanut shell
from which the MAX hid been poured
ard nitrcglycerine substituted The
c1coanut was attached by fuse abou,
"A inches in length to a new alarm
clcck. The glass had been removed
from the face of the clock and one
end Of the fuse attached to the ham
mer of the alarm. The whole was
neatly and tightly wrapped with ad-
hesiVe tape and was evidently the
work of experts.
Department Of justice attaches and
officers of the military police were
very careful in handling the machine
until all the wires and fuses had been
tested.
The bomb had evidently been plac-
ed under the bridge during the late
hours Wednesday or early Thursday
morning. because inquiries on the
part Of the Officials failed to get any
clews for any suspicious persons
