CAUSED
 BRADT'S ARREST

A playful prank on the part of number of small boys brought George Bradt of 652 Dewey street, into the City Court this morning on a charge of assauldng Special Officer DeLemos. The man was fined $10 and costs.
 The trouble came about last night, when some boys rapped on the win dow of a house in which DeLemos was visiting. The owner of the resi- dence caught one of the youngsters wno later proved to be Bradt's boy, and the special officer attempted to throw a scare into the chi1d.'' The child shouted for help, when the off cer took old of him, and Bradt came to the defense of his offspring. In the miX-up which followed, Bradt is al- legged to have punched DeLemos in the eye. Bradt denied that he struck the officer, but admitted that he bumped into him. as he came around the corner of the house.

SUICIDE DISCLOSES SEVERAL ARE HELD
 FOR BOMB PLOTS

According to Flynn the suicide of Salsedo, an Italian anarchist who lived in this city with his wife and two children, will not affect the gov ernment's case and through informa- ton supplied by him and other wit nesses, important arrests may be ex- pected.
 According to Donate, Salsedo, who came to this country about five years ago, did not know English and was not "a man of action" His attorney said when anarchists asked him to print the pink circulars, he did not appreciate the gravity of his act
 Immigration officials at Ellis Island said that a warrant for Salsedo's de- portation had been granted on March 10 on representation by the Depart ment of Justice that he was an an- archist. The prisoner was not sur rendered, however, to the Ellis Island authorities, nor was his warrant re- turned.
 It was learned that Sa1sedo was be- ing held by the Department of Justice with the hope that a dozen Italians alleged to have fled to Italy or Switz1 erland would return to the United States. Federal agents did not give their reasons for expecting this re- turn.
 At police headquarters it was ad- mitted today that two other arrests had been made here before Salsedo was taken into custody.
 The first man arrested, according to the police, was Roberto Ellia of Brooklyn. The police asserted that a loaded revolver had been found in his possession, that he had admitted he was an anarchist and that he was editor of a publication known as Domani. Arraigned on a charge of violating the Sullivan law by carrying a loaded weapon, he was placed un- der suspended sentence and turned over to the Department of Justice.
 On information said to have been supplied by Ellia, Vito Marriani, an Italian laborer, was taken into GUS tody. The police say he admitted he was an anarchist and supplied in- formation on which Salsedo was ar rested.
 Chief Flynn said that Sa1sedo and other government witnesses had -ex- pressed fear of being murdered by the anarchist plotters if it became known they had confessed
 At their own suggestion quarters were arranged for them in the Park Row building. There they slept and had their meals, and they did not leave the building except for exer- else.
