Three men ami a woman were Killed when a 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 Rockefeller, as a result of the Colo rado coal millers' strike troubles. As 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 gether with a yellow substance thought to nave been used in the bomb construction. Late today the police escorted from the office of Emma Goldman's pub lication "Mother Earth" to the police station, a group of agitators includ ing Maiie Ganz, arrested some time ago for making outdoor speeches in which she threatened to shoot John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Miss Ganz was released this merning from the Queens county jail after serving a term as a result of her speech-making. The cross examination late today disclosed that all the eleven defend ants who are out on bail.met here last night with Alexander Berkman. an anarchist, and others at, the head quarters of the Francisco Ferrer school to devise a way to aid the persons facing trial on Monday. The conferences included leaders of the so-called anti-militarist leagues, which seeks to discourage workmen from joining the State National ( iuard.

The count's first word as he was met on board the Va terland was in reference to the recent assassination of Archduke Francis Fer dinand. His attitude was not one of the conventional condolence. He de clared he was much sorrier than he could say. "I am sorrier than I can say," he said.

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 ammunition needed by Villa to con tinue his campaign on Mexico City. This is the basis on which the future negotiations will be conducted by the conference. It is understood that this is the only condition Villa has insisted upon. Delegates of the northeast are guests of Villa. They were entertained last night at Villa's residence. "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." General Luis Caballero. governor of the state of Tamalipas is one of the members of the conference. George C. Carothers, canfidential agent of the United States government, hud a long interview today with Villa and afterwards said it had been emin ently satisfactory. Roque Gonzales Garza, one of Villa's officials; and Meade Fierro. a Carranza man, who are acting as secretaries of the con ference, issued the following state ment: "In today's session the following was agreed to and approved as the basis of future findings: The division of the north recognizes Venustiano Carranza in all things as commander-in-chief of the constitutionalist army, and General Villa solemnly reiterates his loyalty. General Francisco Villa, will continue as commander of the division of the north " FIGHT AGAINST PLAGUE ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCnl NEW ORLEANS, July 4.

We have of course, been re signed to this for although the pres ent emperor is not out of sympathy with our democracy, he has been so influenced by the ill advice of his coun sellors, that it has been impossible to reach him. As for the present heir-apparent . . . ." But the count finished his sentence with a shrug of the shoulders. "My errand to this country can be explained in a word," said the count. "It is to complete what I started when I was here before. I want to win the moral support of the Hungarians in this country for our cause that of universal franchise for their country men at home." MODERNIZE IKE IMMORTAL LARAT President Wilson Standing Within Few Feet (f Where Document Was Signed Pleads for Later Day Application TOUCHES ALSO OX OTHER SUBJECTS Refers to Mexico, Panama Tolls Repeal Controversy, Anti-Trust Program, Bus iness Conditions and Mod ern Patriotism ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH! 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.

(letting be hind the state's proposed five mil lion dollar bond issue, was the prin 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 tions for good roads bonds had re ceived nearly 7000 signatures was re ceived with great rejoicing, and ev ery county's representatives became puffed up with pride over the I achievement. The meeting was thusiastioally "for" the petition, passed resolutions endorsing planv President Tom Xorris presided. 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 with the funds and equipment now I 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 (Continued on Page Five.) 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. Thousands Visit Park For Fireworks Display The exhibition o at Riverside park f pyrotechnics seen last night was one of the greatest ever sent heavenward in this section of the country. No expense had been spared to obtain the latest, in set pieces and spiral whirlers and sky rockets to attract the thousands of pleasure seekers bent upon properly observing the Glotious Fourth. And thousands surely visited park last night. So great was crowd that Manager Dick Hall forced to get a gang of men the the was and remove the east fence to the base ball ground and send the crowds Into MOOSE DAY AT S GREATEST EVER Xo Fraternal Organization of Phoenix Ever Held Better Single Day Cele bration in Any; South western Citv ATTENDANCE 1T PARK IS RECORD (Ireat Parade Mark's Be ginning of the Celebra tion, and the Fireworks .Brings Clreat Dav to a (lose 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 o'clock, every member of the various committees, was on hand and every member of the various committees was on hand when the last dollar of Moose money was cashed in just be fore the park closed for the night. "How many were on the grounds during the day?" Why. 10,000. of course. That's about what the figures showed at the box office when the day was declared to be merging into another. It may more or it may less. But it was way or the other, have been a few have been a few so near 10,000, one that there's no use quibbling. There would be little excuse for The Republican this morning devot ing extended space to a review of the day's happet.ings. Everybody that was in Phoenix yesterday knows mora about the Moose Day celebration than the newspapermen. They know that the parade, the greatest ever held in Phoenix under the auspices of any fraternal organization, was headed by Sheriff Jeff D. Adams, and Chief of Police George O. Bris bois, the later also incidentally being the chairman of the Moose Day parade committee. For Brisbois it was if lie had just called the boys together and said we are going to have a parade and they turned out. i..r Jeff Adams it was just as though he had signed his application to be come a member of t'-e biggest order in Phoenix and the members had turned out to give him the "Howdy Pap" greeting. For Mr. Jefferson (Continued on Pa.ca Six.) the grandstand in order that they might properly see the wonderful display. No such crowd has ever been got ten out to celebrate a Fourth of July heie before as the crowd last night at the park. Many of them went there early in the day and stayed th rest of the day, while others went in the private and public conveyances last night. AH spoke in the highest terms ot the great exhibition and of the man agement of the park in furnishing so great an attraction with which to celebrate the nation's birthday, f i
