OF BOMB; EXTRA
GUARDS IN WALL ST.
Warning of "Blow Up" Near Stock
Exchange Not Taken Seriously
by Police.

Twenty extra uniformed policemen
and number of detectives were as
signed to the financial district to-day
because of a threat of an explosion
sent anonymously to Charles T. Nor

Exchange was to be blown up" was
not taken seriously, but that the
presence of the extra men was a pre-
caution against a panic which might
be started by an exploding automo-
bile tire or other loud noise in the
neighborhood.

she said, because he allowed the fam

STRANGE ACTIONS OF
THREE MEN AT GEEKER'S

Late last night two men dropped
into George Geekers store on the cor
ner Of Garden and Spring streets and
told the clerk that they were govern
ment inspectors. They didn't say what
their business was. but seemed to be
mysterious in their action. The clerk,
becoming suspicious, called in from
the back room other clerks, util there
were six in the store. The alleged
government men asked that a phone
number be called, and was told that the
phone was there and the men could
use it themselves.
Winking at his partner, one Of the
men said I'VE had better call in the
head Inspector" and going to the door
gave whistle and third man came
in. He was described as being a rough
looking man. Still they did not state
their business, but went to the phone
and called for a taxi When the taxi
arrived the three men drove off.
Later the taxi driver returned to the
store and stated that he drove the men
across the big bayou where they got
out of the auto and beat it, leaving
the driver without his pay
