Twenty-five packages, all of similar shape and wrapping, were placed m the mails. Nine roached their destinations. One, sent to former Senator Hardwick, of Oeorgia. ex ploded iri his home, injurying his wife and their negro rnai.j. Sikteen of the packa^rs, by a freak of hick, w/re heM in the main post officc at New York for ixtra poetage and w<re found there by ofilcials on April 29. The bombs were all of iden tlcal constructlon and w-sre said by the pojice to have been of forelgn material, <in* of the bombs wa* addressed to Attorney General Palmer, but wa* j 0 among those held up at the New York postoffice. Several arrests have since been made, but in each instance the pris oner:; have been set free after an in vestigation. That the conspirators did not suc ceed in their plot to cause widespread death and injury and to terrorize the entire country was largely due to the early publication in the T.ribune of the story of the injury caused in the home of Senator Hardwick. Charles Kaplan. an employe of the New York City pbst offico, was on his way home from work when he saw a copy of the Tribune and noticed the story. He re membered that he had soen in the of fice a number of packages similar in size and appearance to the one that had been received by Senator Hard? wick. Kaplam immediately hurried to one of his superiors and related his suspicions. Search was instituted and the infernal oontrivances were discov ercd just in time to prevent them from being included in the outgoing rhail. 2C S Jp; Continued fiem page 1 McKew escaped unhurt but ach ot the girls was injured slightly by fall ing plaster.

"Judge Nott has received no threaten ing lctters. I am quite posittve of that, If he had, 1 should have known." Police Seek Two Men Police Lieutenant Andrew Devery, l who was in the neighborhood at the time of the explosion, said he was; stopped by the occupants of an auto- \ mobile, a man and a woman. They told him, he said, that they had seen two men running from the scene of the explosion within a short time after its occurrence. These two men, according to the de scription furnished Devei'y, had no i hats, coats or vests. In their shirt sleeves, Devery was told, they fled ' through Sixty-first Street towards Third Avenue, then down Third Av enue towards Fifty-ninth Street. Lieutenant Devery commandeered i the car of his informants, and set I out in pursuit, but the men had dis- i nppeared when he reacbed Fifty-ninth' Street. On the theory that they were members of a band that had placed and exploded the bomb. a house to I house search of tbe neighborhood was started. Saw Girl3 on Stoop Mrs. Frank Muckersturn, who lives at 152 East Sixty-first Street, said that she had seen two girls sitting on the stoop of Judge Xott's house be tween 10:30 and 12:30 o'clock. The girls wore no hats, and appeared to be about 20 and 28 years old. Mrs. Muckersturn said when she re tired at half past twelve, the girls were still on the steps. Some time afterwards, she said, she was aroused by a girl's scream. The roar of the explosion followed instantly, she de clared. Boston Judge's Home Is Damaged by Blast Intrrior Is Wrecked, but No One Inside; May Bp a Riot Case Ruling Rrprisal BOSTON, June 2.- The home of Justice Albert F. Hayden, of the Rox bury Muncipal Court, at 11 Wayne Street, was severely damaged by an explosion of unknown origin shortly before midnight to-night. Xo one was in the house at the time, the judge and his family being at their summer home at the seashore. The explosion evidently was internal, as there was little finmage to the out siile of the house. The intrrior was badly wrecked. All the windows were broken. There was no tire. The police said that if a bomb had been planted it probably was done as a result of .ludge Hayden's decisions in the recent Roxbury not case.". Walter K. Wedger, explosives in spector of the state police, said after a hasty examination that the explosion probably had been caused by a bomb three or four inches long. Pieees of iron, some of them an inch thick, were found imbedded in the walls of the Hayden House and of the adjoining residence of E. S. Kelley.

Tclophonc 204 1 Crrelov Lenine Letter Hints at U. S. Secret Mission Dorunient Found in Grand ) Central Station Bears Purported Signature of iiussian Bolshevik Chief "Trusted Friend'- Named Radicals Herc Deny That Harold C. Keyes Enjoys Confidenoe of Leadrrs Documents, including wbat purports to be a commission as personal. agent of the Russian Soviet government in the United States, signed by Xikolat Lenine, bearing the name of Harold C. Keyes, were found yesterday by a woman in Grand Central Station. The papers, indorsed in a wallet, were in Russian and English. The "commission," now in the nossession of the Federal authorities reads: "PETROGRAD, April 11, 1918.?The bearer, Harold fj. Keyes, \a a trusted friend of the Government of Russian Soviets. He is personally intrusted with an i-tnportant secret mission in the IJnited States. (t is my wish that hi ' ither communicate nor reveal his official secrel mission to any one of the existing organizations now work ing in the intcrest of the Soviets in Amcrica. He has been instructed not to use this letter of commission ox cept in an emergency. All concerned will govern themselves accordingly. "(Signed) NIKOLAI LENINE." According to Federal offkers Keyes became known to the public during the war, when he was secrctary of an or ganization of conscientious objectors, "The Young Democracy." The organi zation was raided by the Department of Justice and he was arrested. For some unknown reason, say the authori? ties, Keyes was drbpped from The j Young Democracy. Keyes is said to have been formerly n member of the Brotherhood of Rail road Trainmen. Local radicals questioned by The * Tribune about Keyes assert the whole afTair is a "hoax." The spokesmen of J the Russian Soviet Bureau headed by I. C. A. K. Martens deride what they I call "the alleged Lenine commission" ?and deny they ever knew of Keyes. Leila Secor, a member of the executive committee of Young Democracy, says Keyes was "thrown out" of that organ ization because he was suspected of being a government agent. Both Miss Secor and Charles Recht, who is one of the lawyers of the Rus? sian Soviet Bureau and the local coun sel of the 1. W. W., say the commis? sion supposedly signed by Lenine is obviously false, since to their knowl tjdge Keyes has never been in Russia and at the time it is dated he was busily engaged in proparing for ;i "Young Democracy'' conference. Miss Secor said it was Keyes who had the offices of Young Democracy raided twice, and that after the sec ond raid the Department of Justice returned the papers it. had taken, apolo gized and said there was nothing wrong in the papers that were found. "We are not now,'1 she concluded, discussing the referencc made to the crganization as that of conscientious objectors, "and never have been an organization of conscientions objec Loi s." Air. Rechl said "people ought to be very careful these days about alleged agents from Soviet Russia." "It is really surprising," asserted Mr. Recht, "that the Federal authori? ties still fall for that time-honorea game of dropping alleged important papers in a conspicuous public place." Keyes. friends say, has not been seen hereabouts for months.
