The Bishop was received most cordially by the Pontiff, who recalled the recent visit of American pilgrims to Coffee in the Hotel Manhattan. While Amos H. Evans, a lawyer, with offices at No, 115 Broadway, and his wife were sipping their demitasse at 8 table in the dining room of the Man- hattan Hotel last last night, two men stepped up and one of them, placing his hand on Mr. Evann's shoulder, in- formed him that he w under arrent. Mrs. E.ans promptly fainted. She was taken to her apartment, the Ensex, Madinon avenue and Fifty-sixth street, while her husband arranged for bonds over the telephone. The deputy sher- {ffs apologized for having brought on the fainting spell, but Mr, Evans told them that Mrs, Evans had been worried all evening by the illness of her son and was on the verge of prostration be- fore they arrived.

CAMBRIC IS ONLY CLUE. Detectives Have Rounded Up 50 Blackmailers and 28 Have Been Held. Inepestor Faurot and the Italian do- tectives working under him became con- vinced to-day that the placing of four aticks of powerful dynamite primed and capped and with fuse lighted under the windows of Mayor Gaynor's suite of offices on the Broadway aide of City Hall, where the dangerous stuff wan Giecovered, unexploded, yesterday, was @ deliberate act of defiance on the part of some “Black Hand” dynamiters and © threat to call the police off their trail. That the dynamite was designed to explode and do damage to the City Hall 1s proved by the half-burned fuse found attached ‘to the broken stick in the bundle of four. But that the bundle found r the door of the Marriage License Bureau was of the type of the “scare bomb," designed to imprese « victim of the power of the “Black Hand’ rather than to do any great amount of damage, !s also the opinion of Inapector of Combustibies Owen Egan and Inspec- tor Favrot. Had the dynamite exploded, unconfined as it was in any metal case, It would have ahaken bricks out of the | foundation of the City Hall and broken much glass, but would not have done the damage of half that amount of ¢: Plosive tn close confinement. PACKAGE THE SAME AS ONE USED BY “BLACK HAND.” It was Inspector Egat positive identification of the dynamite package as being similar in every detail to one found in @ hallway at No. 184 First avenue on Aug, 1 that gave Acting Captain Tunney and Inspector Faurot their firet reason for attributing the placing of the dynamite at City Hall to motives of bravado and defiance on the part of professional blackmailers. Other circumstances strengthened this opinion. The bomb In the First mue hall- way was swathed about by blue Ital- lan cambric in {dentical fashion, A Dunk served as fuse and at its end were tied several matches designed to it the punk burning, The victim of the Firat avenue bomb was a wealthy Italian who had been co-operating with the detectives in an effort to stamp out the Black Hand criminals of the east side. He had received private warn- Ings that unless he desisted place would be dynamited. ‘The finding of the dynamite yesterday came almost at the same hour that Bal- vatore Zaccaria, a man suspected of harboring a nest of “Black Handers” in his saloon at No. 3% East Twelfth street, was sentenced to three months for vio- lation of the Sullivan law. By the urest of Zaccaria the detectives broke up, so they believe, one of the most active centres of the dynamiting industry. The fight between the “Black Hand” dispensers of dynamite and powder bombs and the detectives set tu catch them has been waged intermittgatly. It was only a short time ago tha, Comm: sioner Waldo, spurred by ths fact that one hundred bombs had been set aince the first of the year, put Lieut. Dom- inick Reilly in charge of @ aquad of Italian sleuths with orders to round up the blackmailers, Forty were gathered in and of this number twenty-elaht were held and now awaiting trial on various charges. This round-up by the police has brought the affairs of the dypamiters to a crisis, and, so Inspector’ Faurot belleves, led to yesterday's act of deflance. STRIP OF CAMBRIC 18 THE ONLY CLUE. Moreover, the Placing of the dyna. mite beneath the windows of the Mayor's office would react favorably for the "Black Handers,” the detec- lives belleve. These criminals could point pridefully to the fact that they were able to put dynamite below the Offices of the city's chief magistrate without being hindered by the poilce— & potent Indication of their power, The only clue the detectives have to work on in the case is the scorched strip of blue Itallan cambric which bound the dynamite sticks together, ana that is of doubtful value, So much dynamite is being used below ground in New York and Brooklyn at present that it will be practically hopeless to try to run down the place where the ticks now in the hands of Inapector Egan were obtained. Dynamite passes as currency in some Italian saloons where the Black Hand agents fore- rather, Detectives sent by Inspector Faurot to Fire Headquarters to-day received from Livyd Willis, secretary to Cemmissioner Johnson, a Hat of thirty-twe places in Greater New ¥ork where @ per cent. dynamite, the type represented by the sticks found under the Mayor's window yesterday, 1s used ip eurface excavation, The detectives will visit all of these places in the hope of determining where the explosive found yesterday was ob- tained. jeliberate ger on board the Canadian Pacific steamer Empresa of Britain, which sailed from Liverpool to-day fur Que- bec, The Postmaster-deneral will make @ two months’ tour of Canada and also ‘wil visit New York and Washington.

Last night, while his men waited, the Inapector kept his ear gluea to the party wall between the houses and caught the code: dot, dot, dash, dot in the Morse language. ‘Then he calted his men and went to the door, giving the same code ring. The door was opened by a negro ser- vant. The door to the library was locked and while Gillen was demanding to be let in he heard a ecrambble behind it. One of Gilten's men ran around to the yard behind the house and dls- covered that a ladder had been propped againat an. opened window of the library. ‘This had served as a medium of encape for the gamblers in the brary, They had slipped out to the Street through the basement.
