Officers Believe They Have Etidence to Prove Prisoners Planned' to Assassinate President in Boston RAID MADE ON QUARTERS Two of Anarchists Admit They Were on Way to Boston. Experts Studying Strange Machine Seized. New York, Feb. 23.-Fourteen members of the Spanish branch of the Industrial Workers of the World, were arrested by secret service men and members of the -police bomb squadron in two raids here late today. While they are charged formally with hav ing seditious literature in their pos session government agents claimed to have evidence they were hatching a terrorist plot. Frank Francisco and Edward J. Dowd, of the secret service, as well as New York detectives who assisted them in the raids, declared they had obtained evidence which would be used in an attempt to prove the pris oners had planned to assassinate President Wilson in Boston tomorrow, but this assertion was discredited by Capt. Peter Ruban, of the secret ser vice, who directed the raids. According to the police the two Philadelphia men who frankly ad mitted they were anarchists, stopped here on their way to Boston, and in tended to go to that city tonight. The grave nature of the alleged plot and the imminence of the attempt to carry it into execution, it was de clared, made it essential the iiien be imprisoned at once. After being questioned at police headquarters where their finger prints were taken, the prisoners were locked up without bail pending arraignment before a United States c.ommissioner tomorrow. Meanwhile mechanical experts have been assigned to assemble a compli cated machine found dismantled in one of the rooms raided. The secret service agents said they. were at a loss to explain its purpose. Trans lators were put to work on a mass of papers and pamphlets seized. One of the houses raided had been under police surveillance for several clays as a' result of meetings held there, it was said. Eleven of the prisoners, when book ed at the police station, gave New York addresses, two said they lived in Philadelphia, and a third said his home was in Elizabeth, N. J. All the men, it was said, are Spanish aliens who have come to the United States during the past three years. According to the secret service men, a youth of 25 who gave the name of Jose Grau, is the chief organizer of the Spanish I. W. W. here, and is the editor of a radical Spanish newspaper published in New York. In the I. W. W. organization, it was said, he is known as Armoldo Capatena. 0-- -.

E-7 1AVAL DIRIGIBLE WRECKED IN MIAMI. The Two Officers Aboard Macline Escape Unhurt ENGINE TROUBLE CAUSE Machine in Attempting Landing Strikes Tree in Outskirts of the City. Miami, Fla., Feb. 23.-The naval dirigible A-236 returning to Key West from a flight to Tampa and Jackson ville struck a tree in the outskirts of Miami early today and is believed to be a complete loss. Ensign D). P. Campbell, pilot, and Chief Quarter master J. H. Collier, the only persons aboard, were rescued unharmed. The dirigible had been forced to at tempt a landing because of engine ;rouble which developed after 37 hours in the air in which Ensign Campbell was trying to make a new continuous flight record for dirigibles of this type. It was one of the oldest in gov ernment service and was 184 feet long. The A-236 left Key West at 2:45 Friday afternoon and reached Tampa by 10 o'clock that night. From there the big machine sailed on to St. A~ugustine getting there about 3 D'clock Saturday morning. Continu ing northward the dirigible reached Jacksonville in an hour and then started back to Key West. Miami was reached just before 4 o'clock Sun lay morning. The engine, a 125 horsepower Cur iss motor, had developed trouble within twelve hours after leaving Key WVest and by the time Miami had been reached it failed completely. Ensign Campbell wvas forced to seek landing andl in coming down struck itree. Men from the naval air sta ~ion here were called out andl succeed al in getting the twvo members of the lirigible crew safely out of the wreck ad airship. It was supposedl the A-236 was the sig dirigible which had been eenn in rarious parts of Florida since Fridlay md~ which cauiedi much speculation, Is army andl navy officials saidi they new nothing of its intended pifiht. rEarly Saturday morning, a big diri rible, sup~posedi to be the same one, ireld over St. Augustine as though ;eeking a landing place, and then leadled south after one of the crewv houted through a megaphone that it Mas going to Key West.
