Another Wounded by Steel
Fragments Which Shatter
Parlor Walls and Ceiling

The explosion yesterday afternoon
Of six-inch piece of rusted pipe.
which is believed to have contained
bomb, caused the death of one
boy and the injury of two others. The
blast occurred in the parlor of the
home of Herbert Brann, sixteen years
old, at 139 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn.
The dead boy is John McKenney jr.,
sixteen years old, of 124S Union Street,
Brooklyn. He was killed by frag-
ment of steel hurled through the roof
Of his mouth and into his brain,
Brann's left hand was blown off and
several pieces of steel were imbedded
in his face. Paul Clandow, seventeen
years old, of 807 st. Johns Place,
Brooklyn, was injured by steel frag-
ments that penetrated his forehead.
The walls and the ceiling of the
room were Clipped by bits of flying
metal. The blast discharged a num-
Der Of .32-caliber cartridges which lay
on table in the room. The pipe, the
police believe, WAS filled with steel
fragments.
Lead Pipe Explodes
The piece Of pipe was in the hands
of young Brann when the explosion
occurred. His companions were watch
ing him as he examined it. Holding
the pipe in his left hand ne was max
ing an effort to unscrew a nut from
the end Of it with monkey wrench.
The nut turned with the first twist
and Brann started to remove it with
his fingers.
Suddenly there came terrific blast,
followed hv the explosion of the car
with the explosion of the pipe McKen
ney fell backward. He had been stand
ing directly in front Of the pipe. Mrs.
Brann, who was sitting with her
daughter in an adjoining room, rushed
into the parlor and found the three
boys lying on the floor.
Dr. A. Z. Schermir, of $50 st. Marks
Avenue, Brooklyn, WIS summoned. He
administered first aid treatment. The
injured boys were removed to the
Swedish Hospital.
Found Pipe Near Beach
Young Brann told Police Captain
Frank Conboy of the Grand Avenue
precinct station that the piece of pipe
had been picked up by him near Bergen
Beach Saturday afternoon. 1t attracted
the boys curiosity and he invited his
two young friends to watch him while
he experimental with it.
Captain Conboy said he had sent two
men to Bergen Beach to investigate
and had collected fragments of steel
found at the Brann home in an effort
to determine the cause of the explosion.
McKenney was a messenger boy in
the emp oy of the international Bank,
of so Wall Street. He was a member
OF Company IL, 18th Coast Artillery,
and was a graduate Of Public School

CIVIL WAR FLARES
FORTH IN IRELAND
FIERCE BATTLE BETWEEN SiNN
FEINERs AND UNloNisTS
RACES IN CITY STREETS.
Eleven Dead, Many Wounded and
Fearful Destruction Of Property
As Result Of Encounter; Ma
chine Guns Being Used.

Belfast, acknowledgement are dead
and at least fifty wounded, many of
whom will proably die from their
wounds, as a result of Saturday nights
rioting In this city.
a feature of the rioting was the ex-
tent of the destruction of property by
incendaryism. The fire brigade had
an especially hard time during the
night in fighting the flames. Their
work was rendered hideOus by the con-
slant rattle of machine guns. The Sim
Feiners were in strong force and ap-
peared to be well supplied with arms
and ammunition.
The greatest of bitterness was dis
played during the fighting. There
was great amount Of wrecking of
houses and the burning of furniture,
both indoors and on the street. The
wells of the mob, shrieks of women and
children and groans of the injured
we're audible throughout the fighting.
When the rioting was at its worst
women could be seen, clad In their
night attire, rushing from their homes,
attempting to lead their families from
the danger zone.
The excitement was intense until III
o'clock Sunday morning. Isolated
firing was to be heard throughout Sun
day forenoon, and the people were APP
prehensive lest there should be re-
newal of the disorders at nightfall
In broad daylight Sunday Sim Fem
ers entered Ballry castle, County An
trim. barracks and decamped with all
arms and ammunition. A well-kn0wn
republican called at the barracks and
engaged the garrison sergeant and
three constables in conversation, when
a motor dashed up and five men, re-
yolvers in hand, leaned out and ran
past the party into the barracks. The
police were too surprised to offer re-
sistanee.
The Sim Fein notice posted near
New Market railway station, Cork,
says that all military found outdoors
after 0 D. m. will be severely dealt
with.

OFFICIALS LAX, DRYs CLAIM.
Anti-SaIoon League Not Satisfied With
Prohibition enforcement.

Washington.-Un United States judges
and district attorneys, corrupted fed
eral agents and the political campaign
are charged by Wayne B. Wheeler,
general counsel for the Anti-Saloon
league, with responsibility for ansat-
isfactory enforcement of the prohibit
ton law in several states.
In a statement issued August %,
Mr.. Wheeler alleges that district
Judges have aided the bootleggers by
giving small fines and showing antag-
onism to the law, that district attor-
neys have precluded enforcement by
demanding too much evidence and that
state and federal officers alike are
making the prohibition law political
football"
While pointing out the laxity OF the
laws enforcement, the Anti-Saloon
league official says that all will come
out right Ia the end and that pres
ent conditions need not alarm friends
of prohibition.

AMERICAN MARINES
ORDERED TO DANz|G
WILL SEE THAT OUR SHIPS
HAVE FULL PRIVILEGE OF
LANDING cARGoES.
United States in Accord With France
and Italy in Stand Taken Regard
ing Polish Occupation of Rus
sian Territory.

Washington.-It was announced by
Secretary of the Navy Daniels on Sat
urday that Admiral Huse and the
American squadron now at Reval had
been ordered to proceed from that port
to Danzig. Later in the day Secretary
Colby held conference with Admiral
Knapp at the department of state.
1t was learned from an official
source that complete new set OF in
structions were sent to Admiral Huse.
They are so revolutionary, in fact, that
they constitute a material change OF
policy on the part of the United States.
First and most important of all, 1T Is
ascertained, the American government
has determined not to insist that the
Polish armies remain within the ethnic
borders of Poland, but that they shall
be permitted to proceed sufficient
distance into Russian territory to safe.
guard Poland against further invasion
by the soviet armies. In this the
United States is in thorough accord
with France, regardless of the attitude
assumed by Great Britain, Italy and
the other nations. Poland has already
,een informed of this change, but Is
warned that her armies must not pro-
coed far enough into Russian territory
to arouse suspicion as to the good faith
of her purposes.
1t is expected by the state depart
ment that this liberty Of action to Po-'
land will be more effective in bring
Ing about peace than any other sug-
gestion yet made.
In granting it, the United States and
France virtually accede to the urgent
request of Poland that provisional
stragetic line be fixed preliminary to
a final boundary that shall be agreed
upon by all nations, including Russia,
at council of ambassadors.
Dispatch of Admiral Huse's squad
ron to Danzig is in accord with the
determination by this government that
American merchant ships shall have
the full privilege of landing cargoes
at that port.
Tie first American test will come
when the Warsawa, an American snip
loaded with munitions and supplies,
and now two days at sea from Ant
werp, arrives at Danzig. Discussing
the overnight decision to send the
squadron from Reval, Secretary Dan
iels said, II can only say that it was
at the request of the state depart
ment. to protect American interests
1t was learned here that France is
already acting under the policy. After
wrangling for two days with Sir Reg
inald Tower, French cruiser took the
situation in hand and began discharg-
ing arms and ammunition for the
Poles nj Danzig. 1t was announced
that 1t was hoped these supplies could
be delivered to the Polls, forces by
good will of the workmen, but If nee
essary force would be used.
