Edwards, collector of internal revenue for this district. This postcard, signed “A Citizen,” was turned over to the custodian of the building by Mr. Edwards, who also notified Postmaster Thomas G.

Fischer, ex- tennis player, who sent warnings of the first explosion, had declared at po- lice headquarters on his arrival here from Canada that “more will happen in the future,” “Unseen powers had communicated that to me,” he said.
