Seever, of Columbia College, an expert electrician, made @ careful examination to-day of the infernal machine sent to the Umbria, ,of the Cunard line, last Friday. He found the clockwork in good order, the batteries charged and ready for business, the cigar lighter in perfect conditon and the fuse in good shape. The fuse burned at the rate of a foot in twenty-two seconds and was ten feet long before a portion of it was destroyed previous to the opening of the box. “Even had the mechanism worked as the constructor of the machine intended,” said Pro’. Seever, “I do not think there would have been an ex- plosion. The box might have caught fire, but as there were no detonating » caps attached to the dynamite it could not have exploded, provided it was! ¥° of first-clags quality.” ‘The dynamite has not as yet been conclusively tested. Assurances that ft would not have exploded without the detonating cap attachment appear to be disproyed by the record of the Park avenue explosion, w! ‘h wrecked tthe Murray Hill and Grand Union hotels and blew out wiialows blocks way. In this case loose dynamite, stored in a wooden shanty, was exploded by a fire. ‘The Cunard liner Ivernia, which spoke the Umbria yesterday, arrived fm port this afternoon. Capt.

Sanderson, the British Consul, and an officer of the Cunard [ine called on Commissioner Greene this afternoon.-In -a-guarded way hey let it be inferred that it is the belief of the English officials that the {infernal machine was sent with the purpose of hurting the business of the ®unard company. 1 Two Italians were smuggled into Police Headquarters to-day by De- Mpective-Sergeant Petrosino, who has been at work on the case since Satur- @ay afternoon. It is supposed that they were arrested on suspicion of being Whe men who delivered the machine at the pier. Inspector McClusky refused to tell why the prisoners were arrested. In- esmuch as Petrosino has been engaged on nothing but the task of tracing the machine, it is believed that his prisoners are suspects. Detectives have been placed on guard at the piers of the various Eng- Mish steamship lines. Inasmuch as the warning letter indicated determina- tion to wipe English shipping out of New York harbor it is feared that in- fernal machines may be sent to other ships. If the machine was sent to the Umbria as a joke it was a most serious ‘one, as it is not denied that the publicity resulting from the finding of the bomb, together with the threat against British ships, will cause the English ‘ines considerable loss, Many timid persons have changed their Passage Dookings. (MACHINE NOT THE WORK OF A CRANK. That the infernal machine was not the handiwork of an idle crank 1s shown by the fact that it probably cost $50 to build, and certainly employed the ingenuity of a mechanic, Inspector McClusky said the detectives he sent to make inquiries of the Climax Powder Company at Emporium, Pa., would be able to-day to learn where in New York the two fifty-pound boxes of dynamite were sold. As dynamite is sold by only a few dealers and by them to only a few customers, most of whom they know, it is believed that whoever sold this particular quantity of dynamite will be able to remember and identify the Person to whom it was sold. The two dry-cell batteries in the infernal machine were made by the (National Carbon Company, of Cleveland, O., and a despatch from there to- day sald that the company would probably be able to tell the name of the dealer handling them in New York, and that that dealer would be able to foe ordianey clger lighter Which, was armenwse eee as a that the clock work would cause it to ignite thetteaey Pinna pate) by a Peasory DAN gvark It is believed that through this number the pur- The infernal machine was delivered at the Cunard line pier by two men —— (Continued on’ Twelfth Page.) cAll advertising records of all newspapers broken by the great Twentieth Anniversary World yesterday~.

The great work ; of the Subway is certain to be delayed, no “natter which side wins. , The conttactors, while confident they can ob:ain men to replace |. those:on strike, know it is no easy matter to engage several thousand = men who, because of their long service in excavating, are to some extent, more experienced than ordinary laborers. 1 A The length of time the work will be delayed will, of courre, depend ‘upon the contractors’ ability to obtain laborers competent to take the places of the men on strike. wth At this time of the year there is a big demand for labor, due to the: great amount of building going on both in the city and country. Railroad labor has been scarce for some months on account of the great improve-° ments being made on many lines outside the city in Pennsylvania and other States. In the quarrel between labor and capital the putblic, anxious to obtain the great benefit to be conferred by the opining of the rapid transit tunnel, “Take no chances," was MoGraw's advice to Acting Captain MoGenn. That {se why ‘MeGinnity, the Iron Man, was ‘again placed on the slab this afternoon to hand out his accustomed bafflers.
