BOMB EXPLODED
 NEAR THE HOME
 OF COLLEGE MAN
Took Place in Belmont, Mass, Last Night Police Believe It Was Prank of Boys

Belmont, Mass, Dec 1-(UP)- Police sought to-day to determine whether an explosion at the home of a college official here last niRht was caused by bomb or was merely a boyish prank.
 The blast shattered four win. dows at the residence of Galen D. Light, secretary comptroller of Northeastern University. No one was hurt.
 One of Lights neighbors is John Q. Birmingham, an official of a Boston stevedoring concern, lead ing Investigators to believe the ex- plosion might have some connec- tion with the prolonged Boston longshoremen's strike, which has been mared by sporadic outbreaks of violence.
 Because of the flimsy construc- tion of the bomb" however, au- thorities also considered the DOS. sibility that boys caused the explo- sion as a practical joke. The home made "bomb," placed behind a barrel of leaves outside the house, consisted of gunpowder wrapped in paper, with a fuse attached.

Waterbury's latest bond issues, sstotalling S1,090,00, which were not bid on at the time they came lin for sale last week, will be or dered readvertised for sale to-mor- POW night at an adjourned meet i ing of the board of aldermen, it was learned to-day. This morning Mayor Frank Hayes, Controller Daniel J. Leary and Corporation Counsel Charles $. O'Connor were in conference in the controller s office and the bond issues as well as the coming 1892 budget were discussed.
 Doubt had existed as to whether the city would attempt once more ct this time to sell the bonds. When the sale failed last week the aldermen adjourned until to-mor- row night and since then the con stroller and mayor have been studying the situation and Corpora ton Counsel O'Connor has been considering the proposal of R. L.. and Day and company of New York that 1t be given 10-day option on the $1,090,000 worth of bends.
 However, the city has decided to take the most direct route in dis rosing of the bonds and, therefore. the aldermen will be asked to vote tomorrow night to readvertise and set a date for another sale.
 Reports were still current to- day that local interests might step in and buy the bonds. Of the three issues, $1,000,000 in funding bonds will be used to retire the outstand- ing temporary loans. At the pres ent time the city is only carrying $500, 900 in temporary loans, financed by five local banks. How

Asks Leniency In
 Tax Collections
Commissioner BlOdgett Points to Times as Basis for
 Stand

Leniency in the collection of taxes in view of the existing de- precision was advised by State Tax Commissioner William H. Blodgett at a meeting of Hartford county tax collectors at the state capitol yesterday afternoon. Collectors were urged to take advantage of the provisions of the law permit ting leniency to poor and needy taxpayers under certain circuin- stances in times like these.
 The state tax commissioners ad- vice is considered encouraging to the local collector as to others holding similar positions through out the state. In Waterbury, alone, tax collections are behind about $1,00O,O00 and, of course, in view of the depression, the administra- tion has been as lenient as possi- ble, at the same time keeping within the law as far as possible so as not to arouse the ire of Com missioner Blodgett.
 Yesterday, before the meeting of the teachers, Mayor Frank Hayes pointed out the necessity of
 cutting salaries in view of the hardships being faced by property owners. It is reported from all sides that rents are becoming hard CT and harder to collect and own CTS of property are said to be car- rying heavy burden.
 At yesterdays meeting in Hart ford, Commissioner Blodgett called attention to sections 1236 and 1237 of the general statutes which prescribe methods of ex- tending the time of payment up to

Traffic Was Blocked
 Before Court House
 At Mooney Hearing
Rmmor That Man Who Prosecuted Mooney Has Given
 Letter to Mayor Walker Asking for His Pardon

1 that perjured testimony was re. sponsible for his conviction. Walker arrived at the court building ten minutes before the hearing opened.
 He was dressed in morning coat and striped trousers.
 Some 500 people were in front of the building. It was with dif- ficulty that police forced a path for him through the crowd.
 Someone started a cheer for Jimmy" and the crowd responded. The mayor lifted his derby hat.
 Inside the courtroom the mayor paid his respects to Mrs Mary Mooney, S4-year-old mother of the convict, and Mrs Rena Mooney, wife of the agitator.
 When he called the hearing to order, Governor Rolph announced that two men he appointed to the advisory board to hear to-day's proceedings had withdrawn.
 Present were Theodore Roche and John L. McNab. Roche said he felt that since he was president of the board of police commission CTS and since that body was under criticism from Mooney he should not sit in the case. McNab gave personal reasone" as the motive for his withdrawal.
 sitting with Governor Rolph were Judge Matt I. Sullivan. former Police Chief Dan O'Brien and former District Attorney Lewis Byington.
 Frank P. Walsh, noted labor att torney and chief counsel for Mooney, was the first to speak, saying Mooney was convicted sole- ly on perjured testimony.
 Upon careful search and close analysis of the record in the Mooney case, we assert that with out the testimony of Frank Oxman and John Macdonald there would not be a shred of evidence even to cast suspicion upon Thomas J. Mooney as one of the perpetrators of the crime" he said. "And neither one of those witnesses testified truthfully."
 As Walsh was speaking the crowd outside the courthouse con- tinued to grow until traffic was paralyzed.
 Chief of Police William Quinn then ordered Q special detail to clear the block. This was done with little disorder. ,,@
 The chief said he expected no trouble but he had scores of spe- cial officers around the building and four patrol wagons were sta- toned nearby. .r

| By RICHARD ID. MCMILLAN United Press Stan Correspondent Paris, Dec 1.-UP)-China and 1 Japan are ready to accept the league of nations plans for peace in Manchuria.
 | The compromise was based on withdrawal of Japanese troops from the Chinchow area to satisfy China and guarantee of protection | of Japanese nationals from Man churian bandits to satisfy Japan. Both delegations announced off, cially their agreement with the | terms.
 The league council hoped to !, complete a compromise resolution satisfa ctory to both nations in time | Wednesday or Thursday.
 The council of 12, without China and Japan, decided not to meet to- day in order that all delegates might help complete the resolu- tion.
 The resolution will provide for the speedy evacuation of Man. churia by Japanese troops and the appointment of a neutral commis- sion of inquiry.
 "Dr Alfred Sze, chief Chinese delegate, has abandoned his orig inal request for a spacific date of evacuation and also for Q period during which evacuation must be completed" a Chinese spokesman i told the United Press. "He is will | ing to negotiate on the existing res- olution provided that the council is satisfied that the Japanese are | t' The spokesman added that it was imperative that neutral ob- servers continue to furnish re- ports from Manchuria and that | the commission of inquiry be or | ganized immediately and remain In Manchuria and China, reporting regularly to the council.
 Japan is ready to accept the resolution providing that it entail precautionary clause for protec- tion against bandits and lawless clements" Nobumi Ito, Japanese member of the drafting commit tee. said.
 It was understood that the Chinese requested that the neu- tral commission be increased from three to seven members but that the council recommended a com promise on five members. Chinese acceptance of the resolution was corroborated in a statement late last night saying:
 Assuming that the report that the Japanese are withdrawing from the Chinchow area is true, China under such circumstances will be prepared to take the draft resolution of the council substan- tially as it stands without specify ing a time limit for complete evacuation"
 The Chinese pointed out that any aggressive action by the Japan csc would create a new situation requiring reconsideration of the entire arrangement.
 The tension of Japan and China appeared to be diminished by con- tinued assurances from neutral ob- servers in Manchuria that the Japanese had halted their advance ! toward Chinchow and were with drawing toward the Liao-Ho river

Speakeasy Brawl In Greenwich Resulted

15 years when unusual financial or other circumstances justify such action.
 He also pointed out that the state now seems to be committed to a policy of property sales and lower penalties for failure to pay taxes. Either high penalties must be imposed on those who decline to pay taxes or the property must be sold. he pointed out.
 The local administration during the current year was faced with the hard task of collecting taxes in view of the existing depression. A good showing was made by tax payers, considering conditions, but, nevertheless, the municipality did not receive all the money actually needed to meet the years expenses.
 However, the city is attempting to be as lenient as possible on property owners who are ''hard hit" 1t was explained, hence the attention on the part of Mayor Hayes to meet the situation by re- duced operating costs rather than by further increased taxes.

Tokio, Oec 1.-(UP)-A Japan csc mixed brigade was en route from Mukden to Tsitsihar to-day to meet the threat of Chinese troops reported to be a menace to northern Manchuria.
 The Chinese troops, according to | a Japanese announcement, were commanded by General Hsu Pao- Chen, Q subordinate of Wan Flu Lin, former chairman of the Hei- lungkiang provincial government. General Hsu was said to have concentrated 5000 troops in the region of Tsitsihar, which was cap- tured from General Ma Chan-Shan in the biggest battle of the Man churian campaign.
 General Ma was not participat- ing in the new movement near Tsitsihar, according to available in- formation here. Ma remain at Hailun, where he established him. self after fleeing from Tsitsihar and was reported to be unable to offer further resistance to the Jap- anese. It was reported by Chinese courses in Harbin that Japanese army officers in Manchuria had of fered terms to Ma under which he , might return to Tsitsihar to head the Heilungkiang government. Tokio newspapers believed that a dangerous situation existed near Tsitsihar and that the Chinese were attempting to draw Japanese forces into the north so that not enough Japanese troops would be left In the south to force the re- treat of Marshal Chang Hseuh- Liang's soldiers from Chinchow in- side the great wall.
 The Chinese threat was blamed on Wan Fu-Lin, now at Peiping with Marshal Chang. Wan was un- derstood to have instructed his subordinate, General Hsu, to rally Chinese troops and threaten the smaller Japanese force left at Tsitsihar after withdrawal of the main Japanese troops.
