MOONEY INNOCENT.
SAYS BROTHER OF
CONFESSED BOMBER

Bellaire, Ohio, Nov. 20.-A. l..
Smith, a millwright of Wheeling,
w. Va, today corroborated the
statements of three other persons
that his brother, Lewis Smith,
made a confession before he died
in 1922 that he was responsible for
the bombing of the Preparedness
Day parade at San Francisco in
1916.
Smith said he is confident that
his brother and not Tom Mooney,
the labor organizer, threw the
bomb which caused the deaths of
ten persons.
The Wheeling man said he be-
lieved his brother was engaged in
the German Secret Service prior
to the World War. Lewis not only
confessed the San Francisco bomb
ing but also two other bombings
and the burning of a government
building at Montreal, Canada, ac-
cording to A. L. Smith, who is
known here as "Jess."
He said Lewis told him that he
blew up a barge of ammunition,
destined for Russia in the harbor
at Seattle before Americas entry
into the war. The other bombing
was an attempt to blow up a
bridge the location of which Jess
Smith could not remember.
Jess said his brother also de-
scribed how he filled the fire ex-
tinguisher in a Canadian Govern
ment building with gasoline and
then set fire to the structure. A
number of years ago Lewis was
arrested on several jobs in Cana
da, but escaped by turning in
former against his associates, ac-
cording to his brother.
The purported death bed confess
sion of Lewis taking the blame for
the San Francisco bombing, has
been corroborated by his sister,
Mrs. George Monro of Shadyside,
near Bellaire, her son, Otto and
Frank o. Stevens of Dayton,
Ohio, who formerly worked with
Lewis at Wheeling.

sons who saw the robber drive
from Sioux Center after the hold

them to Frolkey. Members of a

questioned him. His declaration
of innocence, coupled with his high

enced them not to arrest him.
Frolkey then went to Dickman,

theft, and went to the barn where
he shot himself with the same gun
he had used earlier in the day in
holding up the bank cashier.
