under the wreckage of the four
story tenement at 416 West Thirty

were killed and II injured, in an
explosion yesterday, solved the
mystery of the blast, detectives
said.
BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October S.-Four per.
sons were killed and more than Il
dozen injured today in an explosion
that wrecked a four.StOry tenement
building in West Thirty-fifth street.
Police and building inspectors, after
preliminary examination, expressed
the opinion that the explosion had
been caused by a bomb or dynamite
adding that the demolition had been
so complete that it was impossible to
state definitely what had caused the
blast.
The densely congested West Side
tenement district in which the eXplo'
sion happened was thrown into panic
by the blast, requiring the efforts OF a
large force of police reserves to re.
store order.
Several Of the injured were children
who had been playing near the build
ing when the walls collapsed and who
were struck by falling wreckage.
These suffered cuts and bruises.
The force of the explosion was so
great that it lifted the building from
it's foundation ard dropped it back a
mass of ruins, witnesses said.
Four priests. from st. Michaers
Church, across the street from the
scene of the explosion, were among
the first to reach the ruins. They car
ried out to two of the children who had
been playing in the alleyway and took
them to st. Mary's Hospital. which
adjoins the demolished building.
The force of the blast broke large
windows in a sunroom of the hospital
and three patients were cut by broken
glass. Considerable excitement was
caused there by the roar of the ex-
plosion.

GOVERNMENT HANDICAPPED.
Sofia Lacks Soldiers to Curb COmi.
tadii's Raids.

BELGRADE, Jugoslavia, October 8
R).-M. Nechitch, Jugoslavian Min
lister to Bulgaria, has informed his
government of the results of his con-
yersation with NJ. Bouroff, Bulgarian
minister of foreign affairs, over
the recent border raids and the as.
sa ssination of Brig. Gen. Michael
Kovachevitch. Assurances were
given him that Sofia is doing every
thing possible to put a stop to the
activities of the comitadjis. or lrregu'
lars, but the government is handi-
capped because of the small num-
ber of troops at its disposal.
Feeling in Belgrade is still running
high. Fear was expressed that there
will be public manifestations tomor'
row morning when Gen. Kovachevitch
is buried in Belgrade. The National
Defense Association has issued
manifesto to it's members as well as
all other patriotic organizations to
attend the funeral in a body to pro
test against 1.-The heinous outrage.
Officers, both active and reserve
students at the universities, also nave
announced their intention OF partlcl-
pating in a manifestation.
Semi official Jugoslavlan adVlces are
that Bulgaria must follow up the con-
ciliatory declarations of its minister
Of foreign affairs by the immediate
suppression of pro-Macedonian organi-
cations.
If such criminal fncursions into
Jugoslav territory, organized in Bull
garia, continue, it is the feeling in
circles close to the government that
good relations between the two coun'
tries will become impossible.
