Pittsburgh, June 4.—Evidence that
' anarchists responsible for bomb ex-
I plosions at the homes of Judge W.
j H. Thompson, of the United States
I District Court, and W. W. Sibray,
chief inspector of the Bureau of Im
' migration, Monday night, were op
i erating under orders from Russian
i radical headquarters at 133 East
Fifteenth street. New York, was in
j the hands of the police here to-day.
According to an announcement
j this morning by Superintendent R. J.
! Alderdice. of the Bureau of Police,
j John Johnson, president of the lo
cal I. W. W. organisation, arrested
I yesterday after a fight with' detee
] tives in a downtown building,
j came to Pittsburgh from New York
two weeks ago at the instance of
: "No. 1001.' William Haywood,
j president of the National I. W. W.,
j according to Mr. Alderdice, bears
I the pass No. 1001.
Johnson Directs Terrorists
i Johnson, who the police say was
the directing genius of the bomb!
plot in this city, was held in jail!
| to-day with a score of other alleged I
j :marchists arrested yesterday and!
| last night. Bail was refused in each j
case. In a partial confession made
to the police late yesterday after
| noon Johnson is said to have named I
| a Cleveland man as the maker of the'
| bombs exploded here. This man, j
1 whose name the police withheld,!
' also is said to have operated under!
orders of the radical headquarters
; in New York and is believed to have'
| gone to Chicago after the explosions!
' here. A search for him was being
j made in that city to-day.
j Among the important suspects ar
i rested last night was Mike Blelesta,
1 also known as Zeleste, said by the
j police to be secretary of the Rus
sian Soviet organization in Pitts
burgh and a delegate from the Pe
trograd Council of Workmen and I
1 Peasants, sent to this country to j
spread Bolshevik propaganda. A 1
i large quantity of I. W. W. and an-1
archistic literature was found on I
1 ( the suspects, • which the police ■
j turned over to agents of the Depart
ment of Justice to aid in running
I down perpetrators of the nation
j wide bomb plot.
; In his activities as Alien Property
Custodian the present Attorney Gen-!
Leral of the United States, A. Mitchell j
] Palmer came upon evidences that
| German merchants, even while the
war was on, planned to recapture the
trade lost through the struggle and
to make this country their head
| quarters in the campaign. He traced
! this plot down to its scource and" last
! August ga-e out a statement in
j which he exposed the attempt of
German chemists to tighten their
grip on the market and shut off
I American and other competition af
j ter the war.
I Speaking of the bomb explosion
!at his residence in Washington he
jsaid:
"The explosion took place about
j 11:15 o'clock. I had been in the
j library on the first floor, and had
I just turned out the lights and gone
upstairs with Mrs. Palmer to retire.
II had reached the upper floor and
undressed, but had not yet retired.
I "I heard a crash downstairs as if
| something had been thrown against
| the front door. It was followed im
mediately by an explosion which
I blew in the front of the house. The
I door against which it was thrown
leads into the library in which we
had been sitting, and the part of the
house blown in was in front of the
library.
"The police and other agents who
hurried to the residence to make an
investigation found in the street in
front of the house the limbs of a
man who had been blown to pieces
by the bomb. No papers were found
and no evidence has yet been un
covered tp indicate his identity, and
it is not yet known whether the
limbs were those of the person who
threw the bomb or of a passerby. I
hope sincerely that they were not
portions of the body of some inno
cent person passing the house.
"No one inside the house was in
jured by the explosion. It cracked
the upper part of the first story of
the house, blew in the front of the
lower floor, broke windows, and
knocked pictures from the wall. The
damage done was chiefly down
stairs."

DAUPHIN COAL LANDS !
NOT WORTH BIG SUMS
[Continued from First Page.]
spent weeks at the colleries inspect
ing the mines, going over the com
pany maps and reports, checking
: them, and then determined the
amount of unmined coal, the amount
which could he mined and how much
of it would be marketable. The re
port kills the hope of many that the
county's coffers would be enriched
! by millions through tax on the coal j
; mines.
His report included maps show
ing the tracts and the surface area, |
cross-sections of veins of coal and |
i a tabulated statement of the amount
| of unmined and the tonnage of mar-
I ketable coal In? each tract.
His written report follows in part:
j "In Williams township there are
. nine tracts of land containing 2,596
acres, of which 2,130 contain coal,
| ahd 17 tracts of land containir.-g 3,-
929 acres, of which 2,940 acres con
tain coal in Wiconisco township, a
total of 26 tracts containing 6,525
acres of which 5,070 acres are in the
coal measures.
Sekol's Report
"From the above tracts of land coal
I has been mined for the past 75 years.
; and from State reports about 35,000,-
| 000 tons were produced in that time.
In 1918 the production was about 412,-
; 000 tons at the Short Mountain col-
I liery, of which 81.000 tons, or 20 per
, cent, used for heat and steam. The
I Willlamstown colliery in 1918 produced
• 391,000 tons, of which 123,000 tons, or
j 32 per cent, were used for heat and
j steam at the colliery, due principally
|to heayy pumping. During the year
(1918 the Short Mountain pumped 878.-
| 000.000 gallons of water, or 2.400,000
| gallons per day. and the Willlamstown
I colliery pumped 1,524,000,000 gallons,
I or 4.200,000 gallons per day.
| "To produce 412.000 tons of coal In
i 1918 from ths Williamstown colliery
i 590 men were employed inside and 254
| men on the outside., working 295 days
I during the year.
i "To produce 391.000 tons of coal in
j 1918 from the Williamstown colliery
' 507 men were employed inside and 353
on the outside, working 283 days dur
ing the year. About 100 men were em
ployed daily to do the timbering in
these collieries.
Mining Cost High
"The prices paid for labor, material,
supplies and the other numerous bad
conditions encountered in mining makes
the cost per ton in cars at the breaker
high.
j "In making a preliminary estimate
of the coal lands in Williams and Wi
conisco townships by using the sec
j ond geological survey as a basis for
I acreage and aggregate thickness of coal
j a large tonnage was obtained by T. E.
I Davies. mining engineer, but as a re
j suit of a careful examination of the
I properties with their present develop
j ments and having found considerable
areas in very faulyt condition in all
' the coal beds I And that in Williams
township 44.530,800 tons of coal re
main unmined. and in Wiconisco town
ship. 20,483,305 tons, or a total of 65.-
014,105 tons in the several tracts in the
two townships of Dauphin county."
Mr. Sekol then refers to his map of
j the coal lands, cross section views of
the coal veins, and tabulated state
ment showing the amount of coal in
the ground in each tract, and the
amount which it is believed can be
marketed.
Continuing he says: "The following

ship: Original coal in the ground, 21,-
518,838 tons, and assumed that 1,702,-
134 tons had been removed, leaving 19,-
816,704 tons still in place.
"My investigation and estimate dis
closes the following of the Samuel
Kimmel tract in Williams township:
Original coal in ground. 17,539,163
tons; mined, lost and faulty, 14,000,000
tons, leaving 3.539,163 tons still In
place."
A comparison is made by Mr. Sekol
in the report on the Jacob Meash tract. |
Davles estimating 8.653.608 tons in
place and Mr. Sekol finding that at i
present there is no mineable coal in
the tract which is now exhausted.
"The tabulated estimate on which
the details are more fully set forth and
are as I find them, shows that the es
timate of coal remaining by T. E. Da
vies in the several tracts in Williams
and Wiconisco townships is much too
high and that he did not consider the
faulty conditions and the actual coal
thickness in the several coal beds,"
Mr. Sekol concludes. He then esti
mates that eight cents a ton would be
a fair valuation on the unmined mar
ketable coal.
On Friday afternoon the county com
missioners will meet again to confer
with the coal company representatives
in an effort to reach an agreement on
the amount of unmined and market
able coal in the .lands held by the cor
poration.
