THE SUN, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1916.
llhjr was not willing, unauthorized, to '
take money from Itln locnl'even to help,
as ht believed, the strike cairn. Together
they hit on the scheme of levying ttom
the organ boxes. This would nave tam
pering with the local'H funds, as the col
lections from the organs flowed In every
night.
Told Local Officers of riot.
tlowever, Herllhy with hl sense of
loyalty to the union did not want to
requisition the money until he had ac
quainted his fellow otneers wltrr the pur
poe fur which Itwas to be employed
This brought Into their confidence
Tollack, assistant to Herllhy, Hamilton
'and Kulle. These men Mid they pro
tested against lolence, hut had to yield
when tho others argued that the sttlke
.cause would he benefited. The organ
collections ranged between $20 and $"
a night. On one of the big nights Her
llhy Inotructed Kulle to turn over 150 to
Tollack, which money win turned over
to him .Herllhy.
Merna, Herllhy and another who
must bo designed as X until the police
arrest him, went to Caldwctl, N. J., on
Monday, October 23. They went to the
home of McUulre. a chauffeur, with
Nvhom one of the men was well ac
quainted. They confided In McOulreand
all slept at his house that night. Next
morning they took a trolley to the Her
cules Powder Company In Kenvll, N, J.
Herllhy told the powder men he rep
resented C. K. Johnson of lie rnardsvllle,
N. J. Johnson wanted to build u garage,
but had to blow up some tree stumps.
McOulie was with him and backed up
, the plausible story. They were able to
buy fifty sticks of dynamite. 100 ful
minate of mercury caps and too feet of
fuse. They paid 16.20 for the dynamite
and a few dollars more for the caps and
fust.
I
Checked Dynamite In Hotel.
They were advised they could not
carry the explosives on the trolley car,
so thsy hired a factor,, ilrUer to carry
them to Dover, N. J., where they checked
the box In a hotel. Wrapped up In thlclc
brown paper tho dynamite was talon to
McOulre's home by Herllhy. McUulre.
Merna and X.
Vhat night they made a test of the
fua. They learned It required only a
-JltlrraU for a foot and three-quarters of
StBfi to burn down. They fitted two of
their fifty sticks of dynamite with the
rMsnlrtatlrit caps to which they attached
1M(M. The explosives were packed In a
suit case. The twined fuses were pulled
through a hole. In the top of the suit
are.
After paying $10 to McOulre's wife
far their tiosrd and meals Herllhy,
Merna and X. took trolley to Newark
and went from there by t.-txlcab to City
Hall In Manhattan, ''hey arrived there
about 4 o'clock and took u northbound
;Ienox avenue train.
They decided to plant the bomb at
tlOth street, which Is an Island plat
form. While Merna nnd X. went to the
end of the plutforin Herllhy watched the
station agents. On Ills signal that they
Wert unobrerved on the deserted sta
tion the others lowered the xult case,
holding on to the ends of the four foot
double fuse. To get u good light one
of the men cllpppi off two Inches from
the end of the fuse.

After touching a match to the fuse
the irn walked leisurely out of the
atatlon. Tliey had Jul Jumped over the
Central I'.trk w:i!l when the bomb ex
ploded with a violence that shook the
ground under their feet. So lolent
was the concussion that the strip" of
fuse held by one of the men diopped out
Of his hand. He did not Mop tu pick It
tip. The three of them ran through the
park until they icached a Filth uvenue
gate.
Next diiy the man who had dropped
the fuse eml went back to the park.
He found detective (.enrolling near the
park wall fur chits and quit the spot.
Valentine Correll of dipt. Tunney's
quad found the hit of fuse, the only
thing that offered a clue.. Tunney put
all his men to work. He argued the
dynamite could not be bought In New
Tork because of the Kirlctnen of the
regulation, n he sent his men to New
Jersey. Detective Seiue,iiit (leorge llarnltx and
Lieut. Ocoigi! Hul,y went to the Her.

Night ami day they watched the v'ant
In expctntlon of a return call. They
reasoned that the men believing they
were suivc.xfiil In una bomb planting
Would atteirpt (mother. That thlr logic
was pound has been provtd In the con
fessions. -Mcrna and Ihrllhy decided tn stir the
,cljf onto more ; they planned to hit
closer to Hi" centr of town mi thulr In-
Jfernal machine would produce more
startling results. Thcrefoie. they de.
landed more funds.
However, after clearing up all the ex
penses of the first bomb, which amounted
.to $90. Herllhy received $100 more. He
Jgot $7n, anil $30 was gUen to Merna.
;Mernii and MiOulre. set nut on Thursday
to inak their purchases. Merna gave
his name hh Werner and offered the
iianie explanation that had been given
jby Herllhy.
Detectives ll.irnltz nnd Hut-by were

The upshot of tho argument was that
McOuIre and Merna Invited tho men to
"New York' so they could prove their In-
'tegrlty. They imped tint thus they
would be outside the jurisdiction of the
detectives. It was exactly what the de.

Denied Intention to Kill.

there had been uny Intention to kill when

Hut there was something unusual
about this Chicago order. The en
velope which contained it and the
postal money order in payment of
the goods bore marks which showed
that it left Chicago Thursday morning
via the new airplane route to New York.
In other words, the letter was
brought Kast by Victor Carlstrom,
tho New York Times aviator, who
piloted a Curtiss biplane from the
western metropolis to New York in
8 hours and 28 '.2 minutes, actual flying
time, less than one-half of the run
ning time of the fastest train between
the two cities.
For the first, time in the long and
eventful history of the ff&vrj store, a
heavier-than-air craft has brought
through the air an order to New York
from a point almost 1000 miles awav.
