are expected shortly, Burns said. There also may be some arrests made in the United States.
 The Department of Justice has known Lindenfe1d's movements ever since the Wall Street explosion, Burns said. The department set a trip into which Lindenfeld finally walked. As a bait 1t held forth to him a reward of $50,000 which originally was of fered by the Burns Detective Agency, employed by Wall Street bankers.
 Burns said he did not care to dis close at this time just what connec- ton Lindenfeld had with the explosion but gave the impression that he was not one of the principals.
 Linderfeld formerly was attached to the New York police department ac- cording to Burns, when the Wall Street explosion occurred, a detective agency secured the services of Lind en- field an operative because of Lin d. enfeld's intimate insight into the ac- tivities of alleged extremists activities in the United States.
 Lindenfe1d was a member of the Third Internationa1e of Moscow and was paid a large salary by com munist organization for his work in the United States and was in such close touch with It's propaganda plans that he new intimately practically all individuals of communisttc persuasion in the United States.

MODERN WARFARE

(Continued from Page One.)

 l. Ratification.
 ?. Rejection.
 8. Submission to a general refer endum,
 Ulster Violence Condemned.
 The Sim F'ein cabinet issued a state ment saying that attacks by the British reaIly caused the disorders in Ulster.
 The outbreaks were not the work of Republicans" said the statement.
 The statement strongly condemns Ulster violence and says that an in Vestigation is being made.
 It was said that the decision to vote secretly was based upon a desire to avoid acrimony in the open session that will be held on Monday.
 Followers of Michael Collins, com mander-in-chief of the Irish Republi- can army and Arthur Griffith, founder of the Sim Fein. said they were con fident that the pact would be ratified.
 Whether or not Eamonn De Valera has succeeded in forcing any, amend ments upon Dail Eireann was not known. It was believed, however, that in view of the fact that the British parliament approved the treaty in its original form Dail Eireann would not make any revisions If it was decided to ratify.

 All was confusion, all was mystery. After a time when hundreds of po- licemen and detachment of soldiers from Governors Island arrived to guard sub-treasury and banking mystery continued month after month until 1t seemed as if it never would be solved.
 Countless Investigations were start ed. A wrecked wagon and dead horse were found outside the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co.,, which, ky some investigators, was held to be the object of the outrage-if indeed outrage it was, and not accident. It was generally accepted that the ex- p1osion had occurred in this death cart, whose owner -~or driver never were found although expert farriers and wagon makers were called in, in efforts to identify horse and vehi- cle.
 Investigators wavered for time back and forth between theories that a powder wagon accidentally had blown up or that a timed bomb had been sent into the financial district but after a time it came to be gen. era1 opinion that the explosion was planned, either to destroy the Morgan offices or Stock Exchange or as a dem onstration of radicals to impress the worlds street of finance. Chief Flynn of the Bureau of In vestigation of the Disappointment ot Justice was confident from the first that 1t was pilot and in this he was backed by most investigators. Finally the grand jury which studied the dis aster also returned an opinion that anarchists had been at work.

OFFER WAS REFUSED.

At a hearing today a composition offer of 25 per cent. in the bank ruptcy proceedings of Albert Siskind, operating the Sales stores, Bridge port and Norwalk, involved in bank ruptcy proceedings, was refused by a majority of the creditors.
 A store in New Haven is claimed by the creditors as being part of the holdings. It is maintained that this store, as well as ahe NorwalE branch, should be included in the assets, which would probably make possible a better offer than 25 per cent. The hearing was postponed for a week.
