 MARION, Ohio. Sept. 2s.-Setting forth his views on the Irish problem for the first time since his nomination. Senator Harding declared in a state- ment today that it was mot a question for official America" and would be classed as internal and domestic" under the league of nations. He did not state specifically what his policy kwouId be if elected president, but he suggested that the nation already had "meddIed abroad excessively" and that official action by the Washington gov ernment would be quite different thing l from an expression of sympathy. such as the senate adopted more than yeer ago
 1 Senator Harding today held a series of conferences on financial and other issues and made front porch speech, asking for the cooperation of business executives and social reformers to pro- mote social welfare.
 l Among his callers were Otto H. Kahn, the New York financier; Representative l James W. Good of Iowa, chairman of | the house appropriations committee; Representative Bascom C. Slemp of Virginia, and James M. Beck of New l York
 After his talk wsfh the nominee, MT

 A statement also was issued by Mir | Beck, praising the candidates ability
 to grasp international problems and predicting that he would be com

 The senator's front porch address was 1 delivered before a gathering composed | of Republicans from Crawford county Ohio, and of members of the Ohio Den i tai association. The crowd cheered hin Repeatedly, saving it's greatest outburst:

BOMB PLACED IN. 1 STATION GIVES.
 BROOKLYN SCARE
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 NEW YORK, Sept 23.-After a week had passed without investigators being able to solve the mystery of the Wall street explosion, they were presented today with another mystery n who placed a, package of dynamite in the Reid avenue elevated station in Brook lyn today.
 The package was found by a police men who soaked it in a bucket of water. Later it was taken to a laboratory for analysis.
 At the laboratory it was said there had been found two pipe cleaners i'm pregnated with nitrate. These pipe cleaners, it was said, have served as fuses, but it had not been established whether either had been lighted Au thorities agreed that no percussion caps had been found.
 Meanwhile detectives Investigating the Wall street explosion reported that they had been able to identify the tag found near the horse attached to the death cart which is believed to have been the center of the blast.
 This tag had been issued in 1918 to Brooklyn concern to certify that one of its horses was not afflicted with glanders, but since then the horse had been sold three times. The name of the latest owner, if known, was not made public.
 New York and vicinity were subjected to more bomb scares today. Anony- nous warning that the Grand Central station would be blown up at D. m., caused detectives to be rushed to the terminal and also to the Pennsylvania station and the postoffice Nothing happened.
 In Brooklyn, seizure of a rickety buggy by federal authorities caused a little excitement. The buggy. which drew up alongside the federal building, was found however, to contain 12 bot ties of whisky and not bombs. In Bogota, N. J., two suspicious look ing tubs were found in a freight car An investigation was started to deter mine whether they were bombs or bomb castings. Seigel, Kessler and Dulchin hardware dealers, testifying before the grand jury, described the man who they said had appeared at their store asking for nine pound window weights which they were unable to furnish him. Sawed up weights of this nature were found | after the explosion
