Tw? bUcksmitns yesterday examined
the hind ?hoes und hoof* of the horse
at Police Headquarters. These two
shoes were almost new and had the
union marks of the farriors still on
them. The two front shoes were old (
and had no such marks. One of the
blacksmiths, whose name and address
the police refused to divulge, after
iooking nt the new hind shoes, said
he was almost sure that he put them
on nbout two days ago? referring par?
ticularly to the size, shape and mark?
ings.
Kxpert inspection showed, however,
that the shoe? had not been used more
than two- hours. It was assumed from
this that the animal had not been em?
ployed for work, but was merely held
in readiness for his last job of drag'
ging the bomb wagon to the heart of
the financial district.
Quest Leads to States Island'
There is a tendency on the part of
detectives to concentrate on Staten Isl?
and and Brooklyn for more definite in?
formation as to the owner of the death
wagon. They point out that the wagon
was seen coming up from the Wall
Street ferry and that the H. S. I. U.
i Horseshoe? r. International Union)
marks on the shoes were most fre?
quently used in Ststen Island, where
horseshoers abound in fairly large
numbers.
The identifying blacksmith was taken
up to West Ihirty-ninth Street, where
the body of the horse is. It is not
known whether he found anything to
identify it as the horse he shod. He
has told the police all he knows about
the man who brought the horse to his
shop, if it is the same horse he has in
m i-id.
Mr. Lamb said that a piece of the
wagon had been found on the ledge of
n window on the twenty-fourth floor of
the Bankers Trust Building. The frag?
ment shows that the \va;on was at
least ten years oid and rirobably was of
the type used for small stores' de
iiver> of such things as butter and
eggs, because of i*i peculiar width. The
harness, it was said, had been traced to
a maker in Kingston. N. Y., but was so
old that it had undoubtedly changed
hands scores of times before it fell
into the hands of its last owners.
Department of Justice officials know
nothing ot the report that portions of
tin rontair.ers that had been used for
scoring gasoline and kerosene were
found in the neighborhood of the ex?
plosion, which wns taken to indicate
*h". the p otters had intended to cause
;, general conflagration in connection
with the detonation. Bits of these cans
rre in the possession of the police.
It was learned yesterday that three
bundles which were taken to ho bales
o * rags were seen between the statue
of George Washington in front of the
Sub-Treasury Building; and the easterr
end of the structure shortly after the
blast. Several persons who come upor
the scMie shortly after the explosion
nie said to have u-ed two of these
holes as head rests for some of the in
jured. Police heads say that if the
presence of these bales can be con?
firmed it would indic?te they had beer
used to wrap the infernal machines 6C
th?ir true nature would escape the eye?
nf those who might look into the wagon
The Department of Justice people
can hardly believe the iron slugs thai
were showered upon the neighborhood
wen on the outside of the bomb, point
in : oui ?.here were not enough of them
lo ever the entire surface of a .inmt
o' the s?/.e this one is believed to have

Crime Expert Says
Powerful Band Is
Back of Bomb Plot
Foster Declares Many Weeks
Were Required to Prepare j
fortblast Here; Appeals to:
All Ageneies to Hunt Gang
Declaring it to be his belief that
J the most powerful and daring band i
ever organized for the perpetration of
bomb outrages is in existence and was
responsible for the Wall Street blast,
Captain Robert J. Foster, one of the
country's foremost crime investigators,
yesterday called upon all detective I
agencies in the world to make an inde- I
pendent investigation, without retainer,
of what he termed "the crime of the
century."
"It took weeks and perhaps months
of careful planning to carry out this!
terrorist demonstration," Captain Fos-j
tn said. "The explosive unquestion?
ably was carried bit by bit over long
periods and was stored until a sufficient
; quantity had been hoarded to satisfy
those pulling off the job.
"There is absolute proof, I believe,
thai the largest organization ever
known for the perpetration of such a
; crime is in existence. It is a chal?
lenge to the brains of the United
Slates Secret Service, the Department
of Justice and the Police Department
of New York City. It is a direct chal?
lenge to the city, state and national
j government.''
Says Government Is Too Tolerant
Captain Foster, who was the chief
investigator fot the National Erectors'I
. Association of the dynamite plots dur-I
j inp the labor wars of 1010, 1911 and I
1912, charged that the government hnd j
; been too tolerant in its dealings with i
individuals who "have shown by their
conduct and speeches and literature,
that they are against American insti?
tutions and government."
"Sedition has been openly preached
on the streets of New York," he con- '
tinuetl, "and the destruction of public]
'property has been publicly advocated." i
The investigator said he was con-!
; vinced that the experts were correct :
i in their contention that the bomb had
j exploded in the wagon, but there 1s
i no doubt in his mind that it was a
time-clock bomb. He said that the
terrorists would not use a fuse be?
cause of the danger of its odor at
I tracting attention.
Believes Expert Supervised Plot
i "In my judgment," he said, "three
or more persons aided in the trans-?
I portation of the exnlosive, and there
must have been an expert electrican !
or an A-l machinist supervising the
plot. I believe it Wf?s brought from j
Long Island, chiefly because the bridges ;
over the Fast River offer sn easy ap-j
proach to the financial district."
When Captain Foster was asked;
whnt he thought tho bomb cost, he
said the actual exnlosive in it was'
worth about |-i00. but that In point!
of time and work spent in making it
an estimate of 16,000 would not be
too high.

Cited tc Support Theory
From The Tribune'? Washinpton Bureau
WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.?The pur?
pose of the explosion in the heart of
the New York financial district was to
kill rather than to destroy property, in
the opinion of George S. Rice, chief
mining engineer of the Bureau of
Mines. Mr. Rice returned to Washing?
ton to-day after making an investiga?
tion of the explosion.
"Every indication is that the explo?
sion was intentional and that the men
who are responsible had a practical
knowledge of explosives and their
effect," said Mr. Rice.
"I do not think th? intention of the
perpet. atora of the outrage was to de?
stroy property. They did not use the
explosive in sufficient quantity nor
with the proper preparations for this
purpose.
"From their use of scrap cast iron
in connection with what I believe was
dynamite, I am pretty sure their in?
tention was destruction of human life,
especially the force in the Morgan of?
fices. If so, they certainly could not
have planned better.
Hampered by Police Lines
"I was in a New York subway at the
time of the explosion, but arrived on
Wall Street within a few minutes af?
ter it occurred. I had no authority to
pass the police lines for investigation
at the time, so was hampered some?
what in my work.
"When I did get to work I first tried
to fix the place of the explosion. This
I was readily able to do. From th<
angle at. which missiles entered the
walls of the buildings I was able tc
find the point pretty accurately.
"This point was in the street, at t
place about twelve or fifteen feet frorr
the west jamb of the Assay Office dooi
and about one-third of the distance be
tween this building and the Morgar
offices, across the street.
"Now, it is pretty generally knowr
that there #hs a hole in the street a
about the point where the explosion oc
curred. I examined this hole, and I an
of the opinion that it was not causei
by the explosion. It looked more as i
it had been dug up with a pick an?
shovel. From witnesses I heard tha
this hole had been there previous ti
the explosion, as a result of street re
pairing, and that it was at the tinv
full of water.
"By a queer coincidence the point o
the explosion must have been nimos
directly over this hole. The hole, how
ever, had none of the appearance of a
explosion crater. The bottom was fis
and there whs no d?bris around th
edges, as is the caso when a crater i
caused by explosives.
40 Per Cent Dynamite Used
"I think dynamite was used. Th
quantity was probably between twent;>
five and fifty pounds of 40 per rei,
dynamite, certainly not enough to da??
are buildings of the character of th
Morgan offices and other buildings i
the vicinit;-. This dynamite, I thin]
was in n package; not in a metal cor
tainer. The package was probably co\
ered with a heap of scrap metal, mostl
cast iron window sash weights and th
like.
"The men who arranged the explc
sion placed the wagon containing th
dynamite on the opposite sido of th
street from the Morgan offices with
very definite purpose. They knew tin
the missiles hurled by the explosic
would travel in an arc so as to crus
through the windows on the lower Hoc
of the Morcan building and create t)
greatest possible amount of destructio
within. But I think it was not .?
much destruction of property as d
struction of life that, was planned.
"Cast iron was largely used for mi
siles. Cast iron is the ideal iVetsl f<
shrapnel use, as it fractures into shai
missiles readily.
Force of Blast Horizontal
"The force of the explosion was e
erted in n horizontal plane, rather tht
up and down. The sidewalks bare
were Inuched, and the missiles seenn
concentrated within a height of abo
three to eight feet above the wall*
Of course, a number of fragments fir
up, but they were relatively few.
"Then, too, the hour chosen was oi
when the greatest number of peop
would be on the street. Luckily t
i missiles were not placed so as to rn
? the streets lengthwise, or the numb
! of casualties would have been double
i It is a surprise to me that there we
; not more persons killed and injured.
j "Everything seems to point to t
I fnct the explosion was the work
terrorista, who sought to create wtrola
?ale disaster.
"I should not be willing to swear
to the fact that dynamite wa* the sola
explosiva. Further investigation may
show that ?ither picric acid or TNT
was used. But whatever the ejo'osive,
I am pretty positive that the 1 ntion
of the users was about as have,
stated."

ceeding week he suffered a loss of
$195. From May to August, he said,
his weekly losses averaged $45 and
to offset them he became "cashier of

Routine of Morgan
Banking House Not

Only Apparent Departures
From Normal on Saturday j
The normal Saturday quiet prevailed
at. the offices of J. P. Morgan & Co.
yesterday. Not all the partners were
down to business, and many of the
employees had taken tho full day off at
the suggestion of the firm. A few em?
ployees, with heads or arms bandaged,
j offered about the only evidence of the
explosion of Thursday, aside from the
i scaffolding set up in the center of the
I main banking floor to support the re
j mains of the dome which was shat
I tered by the blast.
The story that the Morgan firm,
, is conducting an inquir>, with its own
I detectives working on the case, was de?
nied. One of the officers of the bank
. ing house reiterated the statement
; made by one of the partners on Friday
j that the" investigation isa public rather
I than a private matter,
i "We are getting most of our infor
I mation about the whole affair from the
' newspapers," said a spokesman for the
i Morgan Arm.
Members of the firm late Friday
i visited the home of T. W. Joyce, one
? of the employees of Morgan & Co.,
! who suffered persons' injury and whose
! son, William Joyce, was killed by a
I slug as he sat at his desk in the rear
of tho Morgan offices. Mr. Joyce, it was
! said, was rapidly recovering from his
j injuries.
It is not expected that J. P. Morgan.
j head of the firm, who is in the north of
! Scotland on n hunting trip, will re
I turn before early December. The firm

I but. it is not believed he will change

Fischer May Have Go? Mental
Radio on Bomb, Says Expert
Head of Hyslop Institute Declare? Similar Cases
Have Been Known When Mind Was
"Tuned" to Proper Pitch
Psychic knowledge of an impending I
disaster is as feasible as though it )
wore a "pick up" by a radio operator
whose instrument chanced to be |
"tuned" or within receiving range of a j
wirelessed message, according to Dr. :
Walter F. Prince, acting director of j
the American Institute for Physical ?
Research, four.Jed by the late Profes?
sor James S. Hyslop.
u:. Prlnaa declared that the aflier
tion of Edward R. Fischer, detained at
Hamilton, Ont., that his postcard
warnings to frie:.d:; here of the Wall
Street explosion last Thursday were
inspired by psychic phenomena, "were
highly within the realm of possibility."
Dr. Prince cited two striking cases,
a train wreck and n woman's suicide,
premonition of which, he sail, he had
received in dreams and which were
borne out in detail the following day.
Dr. Prince said the mind of Fischer,
whose brother-in-law, Robert A. Pope,
declared he ha possessed psychic
powers for a-nur >er of years, evident?
ly v.af "tuned" o those who plotted
the explosion, r ?>.< elving telepathic im?
pression? of th tragedy that later oc?
curred. He sa the expressions or
thoughts o? . _? conspirators thus
could have been registered on the
abnormal mind of Fischer.
"It is reasonable to suppose that
Fischer's mind, being 'tuned' in har
mony with the workings of the minds
of those who planned the disaster, re?
ceived the important fact that such an
oci urrence w?s '.. happen," he said,
"hut misread the signals as to the ex?
act time, .?hi';h accounted for the fact
mat his . v''' ? Ts fixed the
tirno of t. ? d - ' - ab. i -venty-four
hours ah?.., I f \t/ act . ??. pening.
"1 regard it as a. pruveu fact by a
lar|,e numb - of authenti : instances
known to me by persm 1 inspection, or
other good evidence, that there is
such a thing as prediction of future
events. 1 regard these instances as
usually of the nature of supernormal
reasoning. As the intention to commit
the Wall Street crime was undoubted?
ly in the minds of some persons for
days previous, it ia conceivable that
Fischer got his information by a
quasi-auditory process, whether or not
it was intended for him. It likewise is
possiblo that he got it by telepathy
from living minds/'

Consider the False Economy
Of Baking Bread at Home
First you have to buy flour, sugar, milk and all
the rest of the ingredients used and which cost
three and four times what they did a few years
ago.
Then consider the cost of fuel used in baking,
whether it be gas, coal, wood or electricity.
Consider your time and the long, hot, hard
hours of bread baking labor.
Consider the waste of costly food material if
you have a baking failure.
Consider, too, how home baking adds to your
worries on the servant question.
Consider all these things and compare your certain expense and
doubtful results with the alternative of buying from your dealer
fresh and fragrant every morning
