New York, May 1.-Comparatively
little hloomk1ihd marked radical cele
bratiols of iternational lobor dlay iII
the I'ni't l States. The most serious
iltoling oceuirred in Cleveland where
one moin was killed and more than 100
vvi~sols, icliiding 1 i olicenian, were
inilwat. Next: inl iiIportance was a
battl bwt4ween ilit Iolice and parad'ers

A riot call was sounded in Chicago
whelan raienis at.teilpted to hold a ipar
i4oe w hich had been torbidden. Sever
al 'erson s were arrested it there w s

Soldlers anlid sailors in 11le city broke

ialist literatiuic and roughly handled
a dozen eiployees of the paper. A
small army of service 11men tried pric
.i sent ly toniight to break up a iett
ing at Maladerson Stiuare Garden but
were beaten off by 1,300 patrolmen
iobii lized aron id the building. Scores
of men in uniforiim were beaten (with
night sticks.
Red plans for file most gruesome
lay Day traigedy in history miscarried
because of the discovery of bomb
plots which had nation-wide rami
fications. None of the score or more
infernal machines entrusted to the
mails has claimed its intended victims.
Explosives experts contend that the
bombs were powerful enough to blow a
man to pieces but only one person has
been seriously injured by the deadly
devices. That was a negro maid em
kiloyed by former genator Hardwick.
Three more of the dynamite filled
tiackages were found in -the Malls to
day. They were addressed to Senator
Overman, who conducted the senate in
vestigation into disloyality, to Senator
William 1. King of Utah and to Frank
N. Nebeker, of Salt Lake City, assistant
attorney, who was a special prosecutor
during the I. W. W. trial in Chicago.
Another addressed to Senator Smoot of
Utah, is known to have been mailed
but has not been traced.
New York apparently iWas the center
,f the plot, but no arrests have been
made thus far although scores of
agentq at the department of jusitii
offiee, inspectors and detectives have
scoured the city for some promising
clues. The haunts of reds and radi
cals have been carefully watched but
tle chief hope of success In the chase
rests in th possibility of finding on the
bombs finger prints which mayt cor
respond with those of anarchists and
radicals who have been arrested previ
ously.

achievements of the new day in which

regarded the labor program as one of
the most gratifying achievements of
the conference and believed no other
single thing done would help more
to stabilize conditions of labor through
out the world and ultimately "relieve
the unhappy conditions which in too
many places have prevailed."
The message wa.s madte public at the
White 'House as followvs:
