BARE BIG BOMB PLOT.
RED, WHO WAS TO GO ON "ARK."
TELLS OF PLAN. Is
Alien Reveals Conspiracy to Attack
United States Government officials
-1e Radicals Arrested.

New York, Jan. 21.-Search is being
made here by the police bomb souad
and department of justice agents for
haIf-dozen radicals believed to have
Deen leaders in bomb plot which is
declared 70 have been nipped by the
arrest here of Is reds. Two of the
men sought, it is said, were members
OF the Russian red guard when Lenine
and Trotzky seized the Russian gov
eminent.
Capture of the Is men was made
possible by revelations made to federal
agents by an alien who had been sched-
uled to sail, on the soviet ark Bu-
ford, with 249 other radicals. This
mans deportation was held up because
of the fact that he had failed to pay
his income tax and he divulged the
terrorist plot, federal officials say, in
an effort to obtain consideration from
government agents.
The is men arrested, it is charged,
were recognizing the Union of Rus
sian Workers, which had been badly
crippled by the Buford deportations.
Evidence to show that plansSwere on
foot for bomb campaign against gov
eminent officials was obtained in the
raids, it was stated.
Three of the prisoners were sent to
Ellis island to await deportation pro-
ceedings.

mittee held an executive session, after
which it was announced that the ma
jority of the committee had voted that
the committee from the Bar associa-
ton from the city Of New York head
ed by Charles e. Hughes had no stand
ing at the hearing. The vote was seven
to four.
Hughes and the bar association
committee got up and left the COM
mittee room after refusal of Chair
man Martin to permit them to act as
friends of the committee. Their de-
parture is considered as final with

being ]. Fairfax McLaughlin's resolu-
ton to exclude Attorney General New
ton from participation with the ju-
dietary committee.
Soon after the opening of the trial
Chairman L. NJ. Martin read a state
ment which asserted that the assembly

nels' that the defendants were men,
bers of party whose platform demand
ed complete destruction of our form
of government by the fermentation of
Industrial unrest, the bringing into &C.
ton of force and violence and direct
action by the masses"
The committees statement also
charged that the defendants "are with
others engaged in large and well Or
ganized conspiracy" to destroy the
right to own private property, to weak
en- the family, to destroy the church
and overturn the whole fabric of a
constitutional form of government.

INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC AMONG U.
S. TROOPS IN EUROPE.
Also Spreads at Camp Grant, Fort
Sheridan, Great Lakes and Other
Barracks.

Washington, Jan. 21.-InfluenZa has
become epidemic among American sol
diers at Camp Grant and Rockford,
H., and the Great Lakes naval train

of the disease, medical officers have
been instructed to carry out regula-

space and cubic air space In barracks
and hospital wards, proper ventilation,
masking of cases, prevention of use of
common drinking cups and adequate
clothing and bedding.
The outbreak among the American
troops in Germany has assumed more
alarming proportions, with 163 new
cases reported there for the week end
ed January 9, an increase Of 65 over
the week before. There also were %
new cases of pneumonia.
The outbreak of influenza in the
Coblenz command is accompanied by
marked increase in the death rate
for the troops in Europe. For the
week ended January 9 the annual
death rate for disease was SO per
1000, as against the rate of three
per 1000 the week before. Twelve
deaths, six from pneumonia and five
from measles, were recorded
