NEW YORK, July 4. Three men

dynamite bomb, said to be the most
powerful ever used in this city, was
exploded with tremendous force in
an apartment tenanted by Industrial
Workers of the World. The upper
part of the six story tenement house
in which the bomb was being made
was wrecked. A score of persons
were seriously injured and much
property damage was done in a wide
radius from the scene of the explo
sion. Those dead and those who escaped
serious injury in the apartment in
cluded the Industrial Workers of the
World who are defendants in the
trial to start on Monday at Tarry
town where they were arrested for
creating a disturbance a few weeks
ago.
They went to Tarrytown to make
demonstrations outside the estate of

soon as one of the bodies of those
killed in the explosion had been
identified as that of Arthur Caron.
who came here from Boston and who
was one of the defendants in Tarry
town, the police began their investi
gation of the explosion on the theorv
that a bomb was being constructed
by Caron and others for possible use
at the hearings in Tarrytown on
Monday.
Since the arrests of the agitators
in that village there have been ru
mors of threats to town officials if
the defendants were not released. In
support of the police theory that a
bomb was being made for use in Tar
rytown, search of Caron's apartment
disclosed two dry batteries, wired for
use; loaded revolvers, cartridges and
a partly constructed blackjack, to

bomb construction.

TORREON. July 4. That Carranza
i.s chief of the constitutionalists forces,
and Villa chief of the north, was the
preliminary agreement by the joint
commission of the division of the north
and northeast in a session to consider
and adjust the situation created by
Carranza's refusal to supply coal and

is the only condition Villa has insisted
upon. Delegates of the northeast are
guests of Villa. They were entertained

"We are all patriots." said Villa to
his guests.
"We should have the good of our
country at heart, and do our whole
duty as a good Mexican should."

PHILADELPHIA. July 4. Advocat
ing the modernizing of the Declaration
of Independence by applying its prin
ciples to the business, politics and for
eign policies of America, the president
addressed a large crowd in Indepen
dence Square, within a few feet of
where the original declaration was
signed.
The president touched on Mexico, the
Panama tolls repeal controversy, his
anti-trust program, business conditions
and his ideas of modern patriotism.
Pounding his fist on the table on
which the declaration was signed, he
declared that Americans today must
manage their affairs in a way that will
be to the honor of the founders of the
nation. He declared the declaration
was not a Fourth of July oration, but
a document of preliminary war, in
volving a vital piece of business.
During his speech the president said:
"I have had some experiences the last
fourteen months which have not been
entirely refreshing. It was universally
admitted the hanking system of th its
country needed reorganization. We
met with hardly anything but resist
ance from the bankers of the country,
yet just as soon as the act was passed
there was universal applause from the
bankers of the United States. You
know the Declaration of Indcpondanoe
has in one sense lest its significance.
(I we would be inde
pendent when that document was
written; now nobody would dare doubt
we are independent.
"But it is one thing to be indepen
dent, and It is another thing to know
what to do with your independence.
One of the most serious questions for
the sober-minded men to address
themselves to in the United States is
what we are going to do with t lie in
fluence and power of this great nation.
Are we going to play the old role of
using that power for our own aggran
dizement and material benefit? Yon
know what that means. That means
we will use it to make the people of
other nations suffer in a way which
we said it was intolerable to suffer
when we uttered the Declaration of
Independence."
Following is the address of Presi
dent Wilson:
"Mr. Chairman and fellow citi
zens: "We arc assembled today to cele-
l.r:itu tho ITtli :l nniversa I V of the
L'nited States. suppose we can
more vividly realize the circum
stances of that birth, standing on
this historic spot, than it would he
possible to realize it anywhere else.
"The declaration of independence
was written in Philadelphia, it was
adopted in this historic building. I
hae just had the privilege of sitting
in the chair of the great man who
presided over those deliberations that
resulted in its adoption. Here my
hand jests upon the table upon I
which the declaration was signed.
We can almost feel we are in the
visible and tangible presence of a
gieat historic transaction.
"But have you ever read the
Declaration of Independence? When
you have heard it read, have you
attended to its sentences? The
Declaration of Independence is not a.
Fourth of July oration. The Dec
laration of Independence was a doc
ument preliminary to war. It in
volved a vital piece of business, not
a piece of rhetoric. And if you will
go further down in the reading than
its preliminary passages, whe-e it
quotes about the rights of men, you
will see that it is a very specific
body of declarations concerning the
business of the day, not the business
of our day -for the matter with
which it deals is past the business
of revolution, the business of 1770.
The Declaration of Independence does
not mean anything to cs, merely in
its general statements, unless we ap
pend to it a similarly specific body
of particulars as to what we consider
liberty to consist of.
"Liberty -does not consist in me'e
general declarations as to the rights
of men. It consists in the transla
tions of those declarations into def
inite action. Therefore, standing
here, where the declaration was
adopted, reading its business-like
sentences, we ought to ask ourselves
what is there in it for us? There
is nothing in it for us unless we
translate it into terms of ou.- own
condition and of our own lives. We
must reduce it to what the lawyers
call a bill of particulars.

dress ourselves is a proof that we

PUESroTT, July 4. (letting be

cipal business transacted at a high
ly important session of the Arizona
flood ltoads Association held in the
Yavapai county court house here last
night and this morning. Prescott's
handsome silver cup, offered for the
county accomplishing the most work
for good roads was awarded to Co
conino county for its splendid show
ing during the last year. Maricopa
and Pinal counties were the only
others competing.
The news that the initiative peti

en
and the
Tie
appointed many committees to further
the work for the bonds. A commit
tee of five on ways and means of
preparing for the election of the
bonds was named, and got to work
at once, making up resolutions.
President D. K. B. Sellars of the
Ocean to Ocean highway association
spoke instructively on good roads
making. His description of methods
in use in the sister state of New
Mexico was highly appreciated and
very beneficial in lining up the ele
ments. "You absolutely must disre
gard working on any particular
highway. You will have to concen
trate your efforts on Arizona roads
In general. In this way only can
you get results."
Joe Gray of Cochise county spoke
on the necessity of organization, and
told how in his experience most of
the objections against road bonds
were to be traced to lack of educa
tion. Fred Coulter of Springerville, mem
ber of the state fair commission
pointed out the apparent conflict be
tween county and state bond issues,
but he showed that both were neces
sary if Arizona is to have all the
good roads it needs.
Power Conway, one of the direc
tors of the Phoenix Board of Trade,
said that Maricopa countv, possessing
the most mileage of any county's
roads, was doing the best it could

Detectives Still
Seeking Revolver
Without Success
(ASSOCIATE!) PRESS DISPATCH
FREEl'OIJT. July 4. A half dozen
detectives renewed vigorously ' the
search for the revolver with which
Mrs. Louise Bailey was murdered on
Tuesday night in the office of Dr.
Edwin Carman. Unless there is
some radical change in the trend of
tile ease, which the assistant district
attorney admitted the authorities
consider extremely improbable, this
revolver is the one piece of evidence
by which they can actually connect
any one willi the murder.
Photographs of the woman suspect
in the case were obtained by private
detectives who will endeavor to have
pawnbrokers and keepers of gunshops
in N'ew York and cities in New
Jersey identify them as likenesses
ot the woman they suspect as hav
ing purchased a revolver.
Detectives also declared they are
very anxious to determine what out
going calls passed over the telephone
in the Carman home for several days
prior to the murder and to learn the
identity of the two strange women
whom Mr. Carman and her sister,
Mrs. Ida Powell, said they had seen
hurrying from the Carman home im
mediately after the murder.
Investigators refused tonight to
say whether they had secured a list
of Dr. Carman's women patients, and
would see every one of them to de
termine whether it was two of their
number who sped away from the
bouse while Mrs. Bailey was still
lying on the floor of the physician's
office.
available. He was very optimistic
about the subject, and succeeded in
injecting no little enthusiasm into his
audience.
Gustave Bec ker, the premier ' road
booster of the eastern counties, spoke
on financial arrangements. Based on
his suggestion was a resolution for
a tag day all over the state, when a
large committee of men and women
might vend the tags at a dollar
apiece, to raise part of the funds
necessary to promote the bonds.
Hon. E. S. Clark of Present t was
another speaker. He covered the
practical and economical merits of
the bond issue, declaring it to be not
simply a preparation for improving
present road conditions, but for

i Fourth of July Marred by
: Fatal Accident to Little
' Xine-Vear-Old Son of
Juan Valdez
Fifth Avenue
of South
Like many another great holiday
this Fourth of July has not been with
out its tragedy. A . departure from the
saneness of the celebration brought
death to one small hoy in the afternoon.
At about three o'clock a Mexican boy,
son of Juan Yaldez of S19 South Fifth
avenue, was literally blown to pieces.
The little fellow.' who was but nine
years old, was playing in the back yard
of the residence of the Reverend G. O.
Mead, at U'!i South Second avenue. By
some means he had possession of a box
of dynamite caps of the kind employed
for blasting in mines. Just how the
cap exploded is not known, but a loud
report drew attention to the toilet In
the yard wherein the little fellow was
found fearfully injured. The right leg
was terribly lascerated from the knee
down, the left foot blown off, the fing
ers of both hands were severed from
the hands, whilst the left eye was
blown out and the body badly bruised.
It was seen at once that there could
be little hope of the child's survival.
Unconscious, the unfortunate young
ster was conveyed to the Thoenix Hos
pital, where despite the efforts of Drs.
Ellis. Swetnam and Churchill, death
took the child less than two hours
later.
The father, hastily summoned to the
hospital, was distracted, and so terribly
mutilated was the little body, that the
matron of the hospital, accustomed as
she is to distressing scenes, confessed
to being finite upset by the .sight.

Phoenix Lodge, Xo. 70S, Loyal Or'
der of Moose, did itself full justica
in its Moose Day celebration in Phoe
nix and at Riverside Park yesterday.
I The "Howdy Paps" thronged the
buisness streets in the morning and
in the afternoon and evening crowded
through the gates of the most popu
lar amusement resort in the south
west until even the park manage
ment was almost obliged to apply for
an injunction against further invasion
of its grounds.
First of all the Phoenix: Lodge, ot
Moose had the backing to an unus
ual degree of the entire personnel of
the Riverside Park management. It
was almost as if some or all of ttm
members of the Riverside Park Com
pany had been affiliated with the
Loyal Order of Moose and had join
ed hands to make the observance of
1914 Independence Day in Phoenix
an occasion that would go down Into
history as the greatest held since
Phoenix became more than a desert
wells station in the great American
desert.
In the quiet of the inner recesses
of the executive quarters of the of
ficers of Phoenix Lodge, late last
evening, with none but those inti
mately connected with the lodge and
l lie 1914 celebration, a sentiment was
expressed that without the Riverside
Park, without the hearty co-operation
of the management and without the
untiring efforts of scores of members
of Phoenix Lodge. No. 708, the suc
cess of the affair of yesterday could
not possibly have been so complete.
Doubting Thomases yesterday ver
made to realize that the Phoenix
Lodge of Moose is on the map of
Phoenix and on the map to stay.
From the moment that the brilliant
parade began to move over the busi
ness streets from Moose Hall and
back to Moose Hall, until the last
pyrotechnieal and sky-scraping bomb
exploded at Riverside Park along to
wards midnight, it was evident that
the first real observance of any an
niversary at the hands of the Phoe
nix Lodge of Moose was an unmiti
gated success.
Early in the morning, before eight

committees, was on hand and every

No such crowd has ever been got
