The entrance hall of the legation
was damaged by the bomb. The ex
nlosion occurred at time when
many persons were passing the
building. which is situated In the

section of the city.
The outrage is attributed by the
authorities to the agitation amonS
radicals against the conviction of

that the material damage was more
extensive than at first thought. The
ceiling b. the entrance hall, which is
directly under the Office of the Amer
ican Minister, L. Grant Smith. was de-
molished. the bomb apparently having

gambling house.
Midnight had not long struck when
Guy Robey. at tho head of a posse Of
deputized officers. walked up to the
door of the Harriway. There he was
greeted, it is alleged. by Constable
Buster" Bailey. who was on the
porch. -.
Bailey. members of the raiding
party say, refused to allow Robey to
step into the place because he was
there first. and II any raiding was to
be done he. Buster" was the logical
one to do It,
Robey didn't like the proposition.
He broke in the doors. The argu-
ment, however, had made the posse
a bit uncertain as to their strength,
and the ensuing confusion resulted in
a ,hurry-up call to police headquar-
tiers in Washington for assistance.
Learning that it was a matter in the
hands Of Prince Georges County Of
ficials exclusively, police officials at
hoadq uarters here refused to dispatch
detectives there, but Sergt. Dent and
Policeman Rome, from the eleventh
precinct, were sent out after an ap-
peal to that precinct. which did not
specify why the men were needed.
They acted merely as official observ-
ers, it was said.
Man Leaves by Window.
Robey's men overcame resistance,
but one of the gambling patrons In
the confusion jumped from a second
story window and escaped. His iden'
tty was not ascertained.
Everything was going along nicely
upstairs when Buster" came back,
according to Robey's account. to have
a conference. AS a result of the en-
suing argument, a warrant was issued
later for "Buster's' arrest, alleging
that he struck Robey in the face and
attempted to take a pistol away from

MORE AFFIDAVITs

LOS ANGELES, Calf, July 9.-The
Los Angeles Examiner says: Affi-
dayits of two or more persons who
say they saw Aimee Semple McPher-
son in the mysterious blue automo-
bile, bearing a California license, be-
fore she reappeared in Aqua Prieta
June %, are in the hands of Deputy
Sheriff Walter Morris, representing
Sheriff Mcdonald of Cochise county.
According to the signed staments
of the two men, Sam Bremond and
John Jones, both of Douglas, they en-
countered the mysterious car, with a
California top and sliding doors, which
has often been connected with angles
in the, Mcpherson case, nine miles
north of Esqueda, June %. Both men
said they saw two men and two wo-
men in the car. Their attention was
directed to one of the women because
of her abundance of auburn hair, the
affidavits stated.
They were returning from a trip to
a mine at Esdueda, which is 65 miles
south of Aqua Prieta, accompanied
by two other men.
Bremond who is negro, told in
vestigating officers that he had tried
to visit Mrs. Mcpherson in the hos
pital in order to confirm his belief
that it was she whom he saw in the
blue car, but was refused admittance.
He saw her for the first time when
she appeared in the public park there
two days after she reached that city.
At that time both Jones and Bre-
mond, according to their signed state
ments, identified the evangelist as
one of the women they ahd seen on
the road near Esqueda.
Official steps were taken by Chief
of Police Percy Bowden to capture the
mysterious blue automobile when he
broadcast a stop order for the car
to all Mexican ports of entry into the
United States.
The car was last seen at Cananea,
80 miles from here, in Mexican terri
tory, and is said to be driven by a per-
son who may or may not be in a po-
sition to throw some light on the
mystery of the evangelist's strange
kidnapping story!
In an effort to locate the car, Chief
Bowden has instructed immigration and
customs officials of all border towns
west of Douglas to halt the car.
