Suspected Wall St bomber

-

New York: The federal secret service agents expect to make a score of arrests in connection with an explosion which destroyed the J.P. Morgan office in Wall Street. These anticipati­ons are based on the result of investigat­ions which led to the arrest of Florian Zelenska, a Russian Radical, at Pittsburgh. Zelenska was

captured after a fierce fight with the police in an hotel room, in which were found quantities of dynamite, percussion caps and fuses. Investigat­ions in New York reveal that Zelenska’s lodging in Brooklyn was filled with Bolshevist and Anarchist literature. It has also been discovered that he left his room carrying a suspicious bag an hour before the explosion in Wall street, and vanished immediatel­y after the outrage.
