vertised purpose of auctioning- off
unemployed men from the library
tepa at that hour
Previously, Ledoux from the home
of Kirkpatrlck Brice. 1 1 S East Sixty
fourth street, had called the auction
off on the rround that to attempt
to hold It would result In trouble
and probable Injury to many persons.
This decision he reached after an
attempt to hold a meeting- at noon
In Bryant hall. Sixth avenue near
Forty-second street, had been blocked
by the police who used strong-arm
methods to disperse a crowd of sev
eral thousands who had g-athered.
frnwda Klork to Library.
Following the dispersal of this
rrowd. all was quiet about the public
library and Bryan Park until well In
the evening, when the park had begun
to fill up and thouxands of curiosity
Keekers had b'eun to gather about
the library. At 10:30 Captain Howard
with 100 men of the West Thlrtieth
Mrei't station ordered the park
cleared and closed.
In this he was assisted by a force
of 50 men of the bomb squad under
Iietertive Serjeant Uman, these with
additional men from the West
Thirtieth-street house, bringing the
force up to about 300 by 11 o'clock,
v hen the police estimated that not
ls than 10.000 persons were Jammed
about the park and trying Intermlt
tinlly to break the linra that had
been establldhed to keep traffic open.
Situation Held Dangerous.
It was, they admitted, a dangerous
situation that might easily lead to
rerious trouble, though the crowd
was made up mostly of the merely
curious, anxloua to see the free show
which Ledoux had promised. The
police tried to assure these that the
auction had been called off. but they
insisted on waiting around to aee
for themselves.
Ledoux earlier In the day called off
the proposed auction of unemployed
rnen previously set by him for 11
c'clock, explaining that he did ao be
cause he did not wish to cauie any
trouble.
Ledoux' anounrement that the auc

the home of Kirkpatrlck Brice. lis
Kast Sixty-fourth street, and came at
the end of a srrenuotia day In which
the police Interfered to prevent Le
doux from distributing buna In Cooper
tquar and forced him to abandon a
meeting In Bryant hall by closing the
hall to him at noon and dispersing the
crowd that had assembled.
Clubs rard by Police.
In dispersing; the crowd the police
used clubs and fists and members of
the traffic squad rode horses and mo
torcycles Into and through It. while
the crowd alternately Ji-ered the po
lice and cheered Ledoux, who. sur
rounded by a squad of men, was 11
l.ally led to Broadway and Thirty
ninth street and sent away In a taxi
cab. In the meantime many persona
were used roughly, hut so far as
known no one was seriously hurt.
In handling this crowd, plain
clothesmen who were present in large
numbers did most of the rough work,
kicking and cuffing men oif street
and sidewalks, hut making no arrests.
Following the dispersal of the crowd,
a detail of men was left on duty in
and about Bryant park to prevent
other crowds forming.
To Help Mr a Declared Aim.
Ledoux in calling off the auction
tonight said thhe meeting of men and
not the opposition of the police wan
the impelling motive.
"The men." said he, "a-. In a dan
gerous frame of mind, and I do not
want to start trouble. My purpose ia
to hMp and not hinder the situation.
"Direct action Is the secret of Im
mediate results in relieving the dis
tress caused by unemployment. I
have no opposition to organised hels,
but believe 1 can help the situation
by a practiral demonstration of my
methods. The need is too desperate
for red tape."
Ledoux's day began early when he
appeared In Bryant park and fur
r.lshed breakfasts for a number of
men he found there In a Thirty-fourth
street restaurant. Then ht disap
peared, reappearing at 11 o'clock In
Cooper square with a wagon load of
l uns. The police forced him to move
in and refused to allow the distribu
tion of the food to the crowd which
l.ad begun to gather.

dred sticks of dynamite, three inches
in diameter and ten lncrea long and
100 aticks of T N T were seized today
by police following the capture of
five dynamiters In the act of bomft
ing a shoe repair shop.
One of the prisoners was shot In
the side by police, who had sur
rounded the shop for 10 hours follow
ing a mysterious tip that it was to
be bombed.
A confession that he bad planted
and exploded more than 60 bombs
during the last year was obtained,
according to the police, from W. G.

The bombing was said to have been
the result of rivalry between the In

pairmen and the United Shoe Repair
men. Kremen ia a member of the
former.
Richard Burke, who hurled the
bomb and who waa shot in an at
tempt to escape, waa mid to have
told the police that he aupplied bombs
for several labor unions and also the
men to throw them. Police said he
made a statement of bomb outrages
undertaken for the shoe repairmen's
and Janitors' union.
In his alleged confession. Smith
said he met Burke in August and
was hired to aid him in bombing and
window smashing. His salary was
set at $50 a week, but he had not
been able to collect It, he said.
Forty detectives, hiddon in neigh
boring buildings, surrounded the
bombers and ordered them to surren
der. Instead Burke hurled the bomb
and the explosion tore the entire
front out of the door, threw David
Krenan, the owner, and his family
from their beds and broke windows
for blocks around.
Burks was shot in the side by
Michael Hughes, chief of detectives,
and tne other men surrendered.
Burke confessed, according to the po
lice that he supplied bombs to labor
unions as well as men to throw them.
Search of a south side house, where
the prisoners lived, resulted in find
ing the explosive and bomb making
plant.
