Internal Machines
Found To Be W0rk
OF Cleuer Expert

The sixteen bombs intercepted here
were all constructed and packed iden-
tically and Federal officials declared
they were all obviously the product of
the same hands. Inspector Faurot, Of
the Bomb Squad, and Chief Inspector
Dixon, of the Bureau of Combustibles
of the Fire Department, declared that
never in their experience had they
seen bombs more expertly constructed
Neither had they ever seen internal ma
chimes of this particular type.
The explosive apparatus itself in
each case was contained in & hollow
cylinder of Eastwood, 7A inches long,
including a cap. The outside diameter
of the cylinders was / IS inches, the in
side diameter seven-eighths of an inch.
In the lower section of the cylinder
was dynamite. The decorating mech
anism was in the cap. 1t consisted of
small phial containing black liquid
the nature of which has not yet been
determined, although officials declared
they believed it to be undiluted sui
phuric acid.
The bottles we're similar to cologne
phials and contained about one-eighth
ounce of the black liquid. The cork
on each was held in place by a putty
like substance, which, according to

said Inspector Dixon. "But there arc
numerous points outside of this city
where they could have gotten the STUFF
under pretence Of using it for agricul-
tural purposes"
Biggest Dynamite Plot
Postoffice officials, while despairing
Of ascertaining just where the ma
chimes were collected, said they be-
lieved that they were posted some
where near the Gimble store, in order to
carry out the impression the dyna-
miters sought to give that the missiles
were shipped from there
"This is appalling" said Postmaster
Patten, who attended the conference
in Inspector Cochran's office. at SIM
ply sstaggers one. / should say this
was the biggest dynamite plot ever at
tempted in this country and perhaps
without parallel in the world.'
Federal officials pointed out that
there were numerous names misspelled
on the address labels. This, they said
might have been done deliberately or
perhaps indicated actual ignoranca on
the part of the dynamiters.

The bottles in each machine were
held IN place by three hollow brass
screws, and surrounding them. packed
in cotton, were three caps of fulmi-
mated mercury. The mechanism was
SO arranged that any attempt at open
ing the cap of the cylinders would have
broken the bottles. releasing the acid
they contained, winch would have re-
acted against crystals surrounding the
mercury caps and discharged the dyna-
mite.
The wooden cylinders which were
polished and finished and showed signs
of having been modelled and lathed by
expert hands, fitted into green card
board boxes, eight inches long, two
inches deep, and two inches wide,

the trade as japanese telescope boxes.

linked up with recent agitation and

But the authorities could not alto
gether agree on this as the reason
behind the Wholesale attempts at de-
struction Of lie.
Word reached investigators here
that Gimbel Brothers, New York de-
partment store owners, whose mailing
tags were on each package, including
that sent to former Senator Hardwick,
had declared the tag a forgery. No
effort was made to disguise the fact
that this information was disquieting.

Although the public was cautioned
as to the opening of strange packages,
the departments detective force real,
lied that if all the internal machines
put in the mails have not been recov-
cred, it Is the departments job to get
them before delivery.
Officials Safeguarded
Every branch Of the bureau of COM
munications was set to work to this
end, starting with the men who take
the mail from street boxes and ending
with the carriers who deliver it at
office and home.
Not content with these precautions,
steps were taken in Washington to
safeguard government officials to whom
other dangerous bombs might be sent.
Personal orders went to all depart
ments, including the courts, so that by
no possible chance will strange bundles
pass the net spread out to seize them.

covery of finger prints on the acid bot
ties are the only clews that the police
have thus far obtained.
Detectives are searching for the
printer who made the spurious Gimbel
labels and are also investigating the
recent activities of every radical or
ganization in the city.
Many of the men for whom the
bombs were destined, Federal officials
pointed out yesterday, have been con-

the question of restricted immigration,
and the deportations of anarchists and

ASK THE COLLEGE.

Every farmer wants to know what
he should use in the way Of fertilizers
for his own fields. OF course, he has
experimental some. He has been
puzzled, sorely puzzled, because at
one time a fertilizer which he had
bought. paid well. while at other
times he got no results at all.
The farmer should realize he is a
farmer and not an experimenter. He
should also realize that no one, two
or three years of experiments are
enough upon which to base solid
opinion. 1t takes years Of expert
ments on all the varied soils in Ken
lucky TO learn what is needed.
Instead of experimenting at home
the farmer should learn exactly what
has already been done in tests on the
experimental plots in Graves, Nc
Cracker, Logan, Muhlenburg. Shelby,
Madison, Laurel and Fayette counties
in Kentucky. The College Of Agri-
culture has a typewriter report on
the results on all of these fields as
late as June, 1918. Any farmer can
have it sent to him. Asst the Col
