CONTINUING HUNT FOR ANARCHISTS
 WHO SENT BOMBS
No Arrests Made, But Clues Found and Several Radi- calls Are Under
 Suspicion
By Associated Press

New York, May 2.-Agents of the de- partment of justice, postoffice inspec- tors and New York detectives undcr Inspector Faurot continued today their hunc for the anarchists who deposited in the mails more than a score of dead ly dynamite bombs addressed to prom inen- men in all parts of the country, but no arrests have been made thus far. It was intimated, however, that several radicals were under suspicion.
 Details of the progress made in the inquiry were not disclosed on the ground that undue publicity might en- able the reds sought to escape. DIS trict Attorney Swan announced that he had received an anonymous com notification suggesting that he investi- gate the activities of three men who have been prominent in socialist ana l. w. W. activities. He intimated that he would act on the suggestion.
 Capt. H. D. Trounce, explosives ex- pert of the bureau of mines, arrived here today from Washington. With eN- perts of the police and fire departments he made a close examination of the bombs It was found that the dyna- mite used in them was of the ordi- nary commercial variety, but that it had been soaked in nitroglycerin to make it more deadly.
 The bombs which have not yet been examined were hastily removed from the postoffice today when it was dis covered that the acid in the phials des- ignated to explode illuminate of mer- cury caps. was eating through the corks, threatening an explosion.
 Officers at work on the case are vir- tually convinced the internal machines were made in this city. They eN- pressed satisfaction at their success in finding the plant which manufactured the paper used as covering for tlie bombs Only small quantity of the paper has been distributed and il may be possible to trace the assassins by means of it.

Epps Brown, presi- dent of the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph company, the Postmaster Gen eral had no authority to increase intra- state rates, local and long distance This information was contained in commit nication addressed to MT.
