ANARCH|TS job
OFFICIALS SAY
Aimed at Federal Government
and American Capital
AN ANARCHISTIC EXPLOIT
Department Of Justice Is Convinced
That The Catastrophe
Was Not Ac-
cidental.

Washington.-GOvernment officials
in touch with the progress of the Fed
eral investigation into the explosion
in Wall street are convinced that the
bomb was exploded as an act of gen
eral terrorism believed to have been
aimd against the Federal Government
as well as against American capital.
Officials are now going firmly on the
theory that this act of terrorism was
committed as an anarchistic exploit.
There is no evidence, however, it
was asserted in a high quarter, to
show that this particular bomb ex-
plosion was to be accompanied at this
time by any widespread series of sim
liar acts in other cities. Reports to
the. Department of Justice show that
extra precautions have been taken in
various parts of the country for the
protection of Federal structures and
financial institutions. No extra guards,
SO far as Federal officials will admit.
have yet been placed around govern
ment buildings in Washington, but in
structions have been given to govern
ment watchmen, guards and to the
Metropolitan police in the nations CAP
ital to be especially on the alert at
this particular time.
Briefly. the official investigation so
far made narrows the case down to
these points:
First-The explosion was not acci-
dental. This theory has been abso-
lutely exploded and discarded by fed
eral officials.
SecOnd-It was not caused by COL
lision between any automobile with
vehicle containing explosives.
Third-The automobile found near
the scene of explosion has been ac-
counted for as belonging to a New
Jersey man who had an appointment
with an expert accountant in Wall
street.
Fourth-The explosion was caused
by time bomb, undoubtedly set for
detonation and destruction at noon:
this bomb being larger and more
powerful than any known by federal
officials ever to have been used in
this country before
Fifth-The time bomb was taken to
the scene in an OLD wagon, drawn by
q horse, and those in charge of the
wagon are believed to have escaped
injury.
Sixth-The evidence and circum-
stances indicate that the men behind |
the crime were anarchists and that
the motive was general terrorism.

POLAND. ACCEPTS
LEAGUE DECISION
Agrees With llthuania to Sus-
pend hostilittes
DELEGATES SHAKE HANDS
First instance In Which Leagues
Mediation Has Been Accepted BY
Countries Virtually In A
State OF War.

Paris.-The ninth session Of thu
council Of the League Of Nations ad
journed Monday after having smoothed
out difficulties between four nations
in controversies which at one time
threatened to result in war. Through
its action in the Polish-Lithuanian
crisis, the council succeeded in getting
the two countries to agree to an I'M
mediate suspension of hostilities pend
ing settlement of their dispute. which
both sides agreed to accept.
The Aland Islands question likewise
is considered in fair way for settle
ment. A Finnish reservation which
| at first appeared seriously to cloud the
issue, was explained as not offering an
insurmountable difficulty and as hav'
ing been made largely for technical
| reasons.
League officials explained that, al
though neither Finland nor Sweden
was legally bound to accept the leagues
decision, they were morally bound to
accept it. It was further pointed out
that settlement, "if backed by public
opinion, would virtually compel accep-
tance"
Count Quinones de Leon, Spanish
Ambassador to France, and Baron
Keishiro Matsui, Japanese Vice For.
eign Minister, have been appointed to
represent the League Of Nations in the
settlement of the Polish-Lithuanian
question, and it is expected that at
least tentative decision will be ready
for the approval of the league council
at its October session.
The Polish-Lithuanian accord came
after the council had adopted a reso-
luton calling on the countries to cease
hostilities Immediately. The resolu-
ton asked Lithuania to adopt the pro-
visional line Of the frontier fixed by
the supreme council in December last,
and withdraw her troops from the ter
ritory to the west of the line, while
Poland was asked, during its war with
Soviet Russia, to respect the neutrality
Of the territory occupied by Lithuania
east of the line Of demarkation fixed
by the supreme council.
Acceptance Of the leagues arbitra-
tion came in most dramatic manner
at the public meeting Of the council.
The delegates and spectators seemed
pessimistic as to the probability Of an
agreement being reached when Ignace
Jan Paderewski, Polish delegate to
the League Of Nations, arose and made
a stirring speech, in which he said
Poland desired to be in complete peace
with Lthuania and had full confidence
that Lithuania aslo desired peace.
The Lithuanian delegates, headed by
Foreign Minister Woldemar, walked
over to the Polish delegates and warm
ly shook hands with them amid cheer
ing by the spectators and delegates,
marking the first instance in which
the leagues mediation has been &C.
cepted by countries virtually in state
Of war. M. Woldemar said he had full
confidence in the spirit Of fairness Of
the council of the league, and would
abide by its decision.
