SEATTLE, Sept. 17-Captain RaoId Amundsen, whose polar expedition ship, the Maud, is wedged in the ice 20 miles off Cape Serge on the Sibe- rian coast, is in danger of losing his vessel and may be forced to abandon his polar expedition, according to Dr. James H. Condit, superintendent of Presbyterian missions in Alaska, who arrived here today on the steamship Victoria from Nome, Alaska.
 Dr. Condit said word was received of the plight of the Maud just as the Victoria sailed from Nome and that residents of that city are greatly con cerned over the fate of the explorer. The vessel is tightly wedged between ice foes and the rock bound Siberian coast and is in grave danger of being ground to pieces. Dr. Condit said. The first news of the Maud was brought to Nome by a fishing vessel

NEWLY SHOD HORSE
 MAY GIVE IDENTITY
 IF BOMB PLOTTERS
[Repuhlican A. p. Leased wirel


 HACKENSACK, N. J, Sept. IT. Identity of the blacksmith who shCd the horse found dead near. the scene of yesterdays explosion in New Yorll's financial district. is known to the de- partment of justice, according 10 a statement made here tonight by Will jam NJ. Mead chief clerk in the office of J. P Morgan & Go. This black smith, he added. claims to know the man who owned the animal
 We feel that the plot was premcdi- tated," declared MT. Mead, "and that a deliberate attempt was made to destroy the building of J. P Morgan &c Co. and to kill and injure as many people as possible. The most widely credited story of the explosion is that a red wagon drawn by a horse stopped at the left side of the curb facing east on Wall street and directly opposite the center of the Morgan building. A man most likely then set a large bomb en- closed in the wagon to explode at 12 noon and then walked away.
 We have found parts of the wagon and shoes of the horse. These shoes are expected to aid in solving the mys- tery of the tragedy for we have found the blacksmith who shod the horse and who claims to know the man who owns the animal
 "A peculiar incident of the whole af- fair is that a letter was received on the 18th. the day before the explosion, warning every one to stay away from Wall street between and o'clock on the 18th. This letter came from Buff falo and was sent by a lawyer who was believed to have been in the em- ploy of a prominent foreign concern"

1t will readily be conceded that the
