Crime Expert Says
Powerful B a IN q Is
Back of Bomb Plot
Foster Declares Many Weeks
Were Required to Prepare
for Blast Here; Appeals to
All Agencies to Hunt Gang

Declaring it to be his belief that
the most powerful and daring band
ever organized for the preparation OF
bomb outrages is in existence and was
responsible for the Wall Street blast,
Captain Robert J. Foster, one Of the
country's foremost crime inve estigators,
yesterday called upon all detective
agencies in the world to make an indie
pendent investigation, without retainer.
Of what he termed "the crime Of the
century,
ut took weeks and perhaps months
! Of careful planning to carry out this
terrorist demonstration Captain Fos
ter said. "The explosive unquestion-
ably was carried bit by bit over long
periods and was stored until a sufficient
quantity had been boarded to satisfy
those pulling off the job.
There is absolute proof, | believe,
tha, the largest organization ever
known for the preparation Of such a
,enge to The brains Of the United
States Secret Service, the Department
o. Justice and the Police Departm
Of New York City. 1t is direct chal-
lcnge to the city, state and national
government
Says Government Is Too Tolerant
Captain Foster. who was the chief
Investigator fcf the National Ercctors'
Ass socation of the dynamite plots dur
,np the labor wars of 1910, 1911 and
1912. charged that the government had
been too tolerant in it's dealings with
Individuals who "have shown by their
conduct and speeches and literature
that they are against American insti-
tutions and government"
"Scdition has been openly preached
on the streets Of New York." he con-
tinued. "and the destruction OF public
property has been publicly advocated"
! The investigator said he was con-
! vinced that the exports were correct
in their contention that the bomb had
exploded in the wagon, but there is
no doubt in his mind that it was @
time clock bomb He said that the
terrorists would not use fuse be-
cause of the danger of it's odor at
tracing attention.
Believes Expert Supervised Plot
an my Judgment" he said, "three
or more persons aided in the trans
portation of the explosive. and there
must have been an expert electrician
or an Al machinst supervising the
plot. believe it was brought from
Long Island, chiefly because the bridges
over The East River offer an easy ap-
proach to the financial district"
When Captain Foster was asked
what he thought the bomb cost, he
said the actual explosive in it was
worth about S400. but that In point
of time and work spent in making 1t
an estimate Of $4,000 would not be
too high.

If 1900 had been leap year the

REGARDING FLU
EPIDEMIC ARE EXAGGERATED

Colonel L. A. Darlington. special
agent of the United States Indian
service, who has just returned to
Reno from a trip to the South, says
that an investigation in Mono and
Tnyo counties, California. developed
the absolute falsity of the report that
the Piute tribesmen were in the grip
" an influenza epidemic, so serious
that they were dying hourly and that
medical aid had been denied them.
So persistent was the report that
Colonel Darlington started for the
reservation to introduce such mea-
sures of relief as conditions might
Justify. But at Tonopah he got into
communication with persons familiar
with the reservation and was told
that of approximately 400 Indians,
there has been but four deaths, n
in Mono and the other three in Inyo.
Practically all of the Indians, except
those who suffered from the disease
during last years epidemic, have beer
sick, but most of them already have
recovered.-[Reno Gazette.
