NEW YORK, Nov. 11. (Special.)
Before the dust clouds had fairly
settled after the explosion at Wall
and Broad streets, between J. P. Mor
gan & Co.'s building- and the United
States assay office, September 16,
1920, the Evening World began an in
dependent investigation. It has not
flagged. It has now resulted , in dis
closures in which the interests of
justice demand that the general pub
lic should share.
The official investigations by fed
eral and city authority, the score of
private agencies hired by private citi
zens and financial institutions, have
devoted themselves to a search for
fanatical assassins seeking a shining
mark in a crowd in which prominent
persona were almost certain to be
present, or to force the proof of a
great anarchist or revolutionary ter
rorist conspiracy. These investiga
tions, brinpring into view countless
details of facts, have struck a dead
center in their progress.
Polish Workers Are Involved.
The Evening World presents proof
that 1800 men. nearly all foreign born,
sober, industrious, efficient and well
disciplined housewreckers local No.
S5, known recently also as the "Polish
union" and "Zarankos union" have,
within a space of 18 months, been sub
jected to an amazing conspiracy of
grreed and injustice, and the explo
sion was the culmination of v this
tyranny.
The building- trades graft was re
sponsible for the crime. The Evening
World does not charge the union, as
a union, with responsibility. It was
the work of individuals, possibly in
side the union, possibly the work of
sympathizers. ,
Further proofs are presented! that
the wrath a.mi resentment of these
working men and- their fellows who
knew of the'r tra-gic losing fight to
avert vagrancy and starvation in
days of overflowing labor opportune
ity, was centered not only on their
arch oppressor, Robert P. Brindeil,
dictator of the labor trades council,
but upon house wrecking- contractors
Bitter Asainst Brindeil Clique.
The middle of September. At that
time their feeling against the Brindeil
organized men was at its bitterest.
Their last resource for an orderly
way out of their straita had failed.
Their appeals to the city authorities,
to affiliated unions, to the American
Federation of Labor and to fair play
among the contractors had failed.
They had learned they had not even
he legal right to declare a general
strike in the building industry. At
that time Albert A. Volk was carrying
on the demolition of the buildings on
the site of the Stock Exchange build
ing annex at Broad and Wall streets.
There are presented add'tional rea
sons for believing that violently in
clined acquaintances and associates,
in angry sympathy with the wickedly
exploited and tormented men, under
took to wreak vengeance on the Brin
dieU men. -Wagon
Driven by Pole.
A ramshackle wagon with a red
unrferbody, drawn by a scrawny bay
horse, worked elowly through Wall
street toward Broad, from William,
Just before noon, September 16. In
the wagon was a miscellaneous load
of boxes and barrels and large metal
cans.
The driver of the wagon was a big
stolid Pole; he had been told to de
liver the stuff on the wagon to Al
bert A. Volk & Co., the contractors
on the Stock Exchange annex site,
before 12 o'clock. He did not know
What was in his load.
'In the wagon was a monster bomb
of dynamite about which broken
pieces of cast iron $ash weights had
been packed. A clock works device
to set off the bomb had been adjusted
to do its work at 2 minutes after 12
o'clock. The dynamite had been stol
en from the stores of wrecking and
excavating contractors; the Bash
weights had been gathered in the
junk pile of a building wrecker's
yard.
Stops at Assay Office.
The driver could not go with his
wagon directly to the openings in the
high board fence which surrounded
the littered site of the proposed new
building. Under police traffic rules
he stopped in front of the assay of
fice. Just east of the United States
eub-treasury and out of the owirl of
vehicle and pedestrian traffic at the
Broad, and Wall street crossiner.
' Leaving his wagon, as was also the
rule for the drivers of all trucks and
delivery carts approaching the demo
lition nd excavation work, the
driver was sent afoot across the
crowded crossing to find out where
he was desired to place his load. This
regulation reduced, the time by which
the street was to be obstructed by
-wagons waiting to be unloaded) or
loaded. .
Leaving his horse and wagon be
hind him the driver crossed to the
J corner where there was a rough con
' tractor's shack half way down the
Tartly demolished old building which
Yolk's men -were tearing down.
Driver Tries to Deliver.
TTobody paid any attention to the
driver. He was somewhat bewil
dered. He was in the way of men
preparing to quit work for the noon
hour and, though he did not know it.
the load he was trying to deliver
had not been ordered and was not
omerterl bv the foreman and watch
men: they were pestered by his ques
tions.
; He could not tell them what he had
nor from whom it came. His only in
structions were to "deliver it on the
job at Broad and Wall streets" and
"aret It there before 13 o clock."
So they could not tell him whether
' to back up his cart at the New street
or the Broad street side or tne lot.
They brushed him aside and told him
Jto ask somebody else.
Deadly Blast Kills and Malms.
Their indifference and incivility to
him saved that driver's life and their
own. for, less than two minutes af
ter 12. when the whistle on the en
gine down in the hole had shrilled its
signal for the lunch hour and the 85
workers for Volk were swarming up
to the street from the cellar and
swarming down from the few low
walis on which they were still work
inir with crowbars and sledget ham
mem. there came a flash and a glare
and ths deadly blast of the great det
onation which shook naif a city.
The load on the driver's wagon had
blown up. The ticking machine in tn
center of the dynamite and the broken
sash weights had done its work.
Twenty-five persons were lying
dead in the streets.
One hundred and fifty men and
women were lying stunned and broken
on the sidewalks, in the middle of the
streets and in offices. Of these 14
were so hurt that they died of their
injuries, increasing the number of fa
talities to 39. Damage to buildings
amounting- to $3,000,000 had been done.
Horse and Wagon Annihilated.
The bay horse which had been
drawing the ramshackle wagon with
the red underbody lay slewed in a
heap 30 feet from the spot where he
had been left to await the return of
the driver. His hind quarters had been
torn off. Only red chips and splinters
and twisted lengths of the iron wheel
rims, scattered for half a block in
either direction, remained of the
wagon. ,
The first thought of the uncon
sciously lucky driver over in the Volk
office shack was for the horse and
wagon. He worked his way through
the settling dust pall to the assay of
fice and found the mangled carcass
and. red splinters, all that was left of
his charge. ,
No more than before the explosion
did he realize that the death and de
struction all about him had radiated
from the load on the wagon which ,he
had brought nearly to the appointed
spot.
"obody Heeds Driver.
He did not realize that those, who
engaged the wagon and his services
meant to let him take his slim chance
for life with all of the other hundreds
who were swarming all about the
streets near the contractor and the
hated foremen and the members of the
upstart wreckers' union "Brindeil
men." - r
A few moments later the driver re
appeared at the Volk office shack on
the sidewalk shelter.
"Let me telephone," he said. I
would right away telephone the boss.
My horse Is killed. That is my horse
down there dead."
Nobody paid much, if any, attention
to him. He was not able to reach the
telephone. He was half crying from
fright and excitement, due both to the
boss and to -the explosion. He clam
ored along on the over sidewalk struc
ture trying to tell somebody in ap
parent authority about his troubles.
He told them to Raymond Clark, the
chief foreman of wreckers; A. Brin
deil, lieutenant, in charge of Yolks'
laborers.
Clark was too busy to bother with
him. Clark had very serious Worries
of hi 3 own. The death-dealing blast
meant to him things which the crowds
in the street knew nothing about, just
as it did to Volk, the contractor.
Kara Believed Himself Target.
Each of them then believed the
bomb was meant for himself. They
were later to take a broader view of
it and include everybody on the whole
building project among the intended
targets.
Agent Walsh of the Travelers' In
surance company, which had issued
policies protecting Volk from Suits
foi all accident damages, took excep
tion to the number of persons who
were using the sidewalk protection
staging for a spectators' stand. He
went to Abraham Fleshner, a partner
of Volk, and ordered the structure
cleared. Clark and his men carried
out the order. They did not molest
the troubled driver. Fleshner noticed
him.
"Put that man off, too," he called
to Clark.
"That poor fellqw is all right, boss,"
said Clark. "He lost his horse in the
explosion. It was his horse that was
killed down there. He's just been
telling me about it."
Pole Finally Fades Away.
When the driver went away or
where he went, no man about the spot
noted. Nothing at the time seemed
of less importance, for it was not then
known, even to Albert Volk or to his
partner, foremen or workers, that
the dead horse and the driver had
brought the explosion to Wall street.
The emnlovers had a fairly clear idea
as to why it had been brought and
that it meant reprisal.
The police traffic rule which de
layed the driverof the wagon load of
explosives, entirely defeated by the
delay it imposed the real purpose of
the perpetrators of the crime.
Strangely enough, not only were Volk
and his partners, Abraham Eleishner
and Michael Sheriff; and the "strong
arm" committee of Brindeil picked
men and the 85 members of the made-to-order
local No. 1486, unscratched,
but not a single chunk of sash weight
landed injuriously on the Stock Ex
change annex site.
Silence Held by Driver.
It is not likely that the driver, once
Jie realized how nearly concerned he
had been in the terrible business, ever
told a soul except his boss of his ex
perience at Broad and Wall streets.
Some of the investigators believe that
if he had talked he would have been
done to death as the surest way of
stopping his mouth. There are a few
who. believe he is dead. Certainly
those of the contractors' office and
working force who were closest to
the. solution of the plot became first
forgetful and then dumb as they be
gan to realize what would happen to
those who" "talked." But Clark did
not become' dumb soon enough. He
has been shot by a would-be assassin
within three weeks.
- Clark talked little enough even
then. He repeated to three reporters
the story of the appearance of the
driver on the shelter bridge and his
plaint about the' dead horse. He de
scribed the man, said he was obvious
ly a Pole or a German,-spoke with a
halting . accent, was not apparently
very, intelligent' and was dressed in
shabby working clothing.
Clark. Has "Gone Dnmb."
Within a week Clark had "gone
dumb." as. they sa-y. -in the house-wrecking-
trade. He denied he had
ever seen a man who said he was the
driver of the explosive carrying
wagon. He denied having seen, the
reporters. He was called before the
fire marshal and the district attorney.
In' each place he insisted to reporters
his denial of the whole incident.
But Clark had told' the story to an
experienced member of the Evening
World staff. Within the present week
the Evening W.orld. has found two
business men of high standing to
whom Clark told it the afternoon of
the explosion, and! to whom he meib
tloned it again when explaining to
them the attempt to assassinate him
three weeks ago. And so certain are
these, two business men-of the justi
fication for Clark's frightened silence
that they would not talk to the Eve
ning World's investigator at a'll until
they had a promise guaranteed by
higher authority than that of the re
porter that their names would not be
published. -
Rellly Protege ot Brindeil.
On the Volk & Co, payroll a sub
ordinate foreman with CIdrk is James
Reilly of Long Island City. Rellly is
a protege of Robert P. Brindeil, of the
building trades council. Brindeil got
Reilly employment under Volk as a
foreman, on the Stock Exchange annex
contract and Reilly became, therefore,
a member of the. inspection and en
tertainment committee charged with
responsibility for driving all members
of the old housewreckers' union out
of the trade. ' Raymond Clark and
Rellly arrived in the latter's automo
bile at Reilly's home after 1 o'clock
the morning-of Ootober 17 last.
Clark Shot at Klgfct.
They put the car in the garage. As
they were com'ng out of the garage
they were confronted by three men.
In the dark neither Clark nor Keilly
could see these men's faces.
"Which one of you is Reilly?" asked
one of the three strangers.
"I'm Reillyi," said the assistant fore
man. , -
"Then you are Clark?" said the
man, turning to the chief foreman.
"I'm Clark," answered Raymond
Clark.
Instantly there were three pistol
shots. One of them was fired by the
man who ha asked the questions! He
held the muzzle of his revolver so
close to Clark's coat that the " cloth
was singed.
- The revolver was pointed at Clark's
heart.' There was a heavy, old-fashioned
gold watch in Clark's left hand
waistcoat pocket. It stopped the bul
let, though the shock stunned Clark
and the impact left a superficial
wound on the flesh over the ribs.
. There was Just one generally ac
ceptable explanation for a bomb ex
plosion, being the office Of J. P.
Morgan & Co., and the United States
sub-treasury, in the heart of the dis
trict which farmer and labor candi
date Christiansen had been denounc
ing as the "cesspool of un-Atnerican- i
ism." 1
Anarchists, bolsheviki, the third In
ternationale they were all groping.
Not one of the governmental or pri
vate agencies had an explanation sat- i
isfactory to th intelligent men in
charge of their own work.
' In the meantime, the building
trades, employers and workers alike,
knew where there was & sufficient
motive- to explain ' the crime. ,The
building trades, employers and work
ers alike, had no desire for any sort
of an upheaval of public interest or
curiosity about the conditions pre
vailing la their business and employ
ment. Investigation Is Begun.
The prospect of a general lifting
of the lid in the building business was
not much less fearful to them than
the prospect of another bomb, to be
used in the building trades employers'
building in Thirty-third street, or the
building . trades council building in
St. Marks place. It was not until the
Lockwood committee 1 exposed some
of these criminally unrighteous build
ing trades conditions that the city and
federal and private detectives began
to gather some of the material which
had already been collected by the
Evening World. Today the detectives
under Captain Busby" and Acting
Sergeant B. Egan of the police head
quarters bomb squad, Chief William
Flynn's federal men and the private
detectives are all of them busy look
ing through the membership rolls of
Housewreckers" Union No. 95 to find
men who might have been so false to
modern labor union principles and the
teachings of Gompers and Frayne and
their own outspoken advocate of law
and order. William Taranko, as to
blacken their organization's good
name by a crime of private vengeance
as horrible and wicked as the Wall
street explosion. The information is
in the hands of the counsel of the.
Lockwood committee and is considered
in framing questions to witnesses in
public hearings and before the grand
jury.
Yaranko Men Are Tricked.
Albert Volk's testimony, before It
went as close to the explosion plot as
Mr. Untermyer and Leonard Wallstein,
his assistant, thought it well to allow
Volk to go, told how he obtained per
mission from Brindeil for 15 Zaranko
men to work on a job up .town by
paying Brindeil J25 each for initi
ation fees for them.
The Zaranko men were not told
then that they had thus been made
traitors to Zaranko and their com
rades, Volk explained; they were led
to believe they were working in de
fiance of Brindell's permission. They
did not find out the truth for weeks
afterward.
Volk - became Brindell's confidant
and friend. Volk was accepting
batches of 12 Brindeil union men
every day and dismissing ten of
them as unfit before the day was
over. The Zaranko men hated Volk
for catering to Brindeil; they hated
him for helping to keep them out of
work, though they had served him
faithfully for years; finally they hat
ed him for employing Brindeil fore
men who first exacted "Initiation
fees" and "dues" and "work permit
fees" from them and then drove them
off the work by threatening their
lives.
Zamnkn'H Men Are Carved.
Always the Zaranko men were
cursed and Jeered at and called filthy
names by all the other men on the
job. Constantly great chunks of
stones' and plaster would fall two or
three stories and strike near them.
The last of them had been driven from
the Broad and Wall street job in fear
of their lives by these, accidents and
by combined assaults of foremen and
other workers.
- Zaranko had reaehed the limit of
his efforts to lead his union out of
its plight. 'When he came back to
New York last winter he found that
Vladimar A. Fanke, its business
agent, had persuaded Zaranko's suc
cessor as president, ' Ostapetuk. to
take it out of the American Feder
ation of Labor, in which they had an
independent charter as Local No. 16,
and put it into an organization entire
ly outside of the federation the Inde
pendent Bricklayers., Helpers and
Building Laborers' Union of America,
incorporated with, headquarters in
Essex street. ,
Brindeil Obtains Control. -
The transplanted union found that
this international was under Brindeil
control.. It was asked to turn over
its treasury funds - to Brindeil con
trol. Fanke was revealed as little
more than an agent of Brindeil, for
whom he is today an acknowledged
agent. The union members rebelled
and were suspended, so that they be
longed to no union at all, tempora
rily. Fanke and Ostapetnk weredeposed.
Zaranko became president again May
10 last. Zaranko obtained for them a
new charter under authority of the
international hod carriers, building
and common laborers of America, a
branch of the American Federation of
Labor. - '
Brindeil countered by starting a
new union, an excrescence on his dock
laborers' organization, giving it a
charter under the building trades
council affiliation with the American
Federation of Labor. He began pick
ing up idle and inefficient cast-offs
from .any and. all other unions.
Zaranko Makes Complaints.
Zaranko wrote to the dock builders,
to the tugboat men and to the dish
washers to complain. His only satis
faction consisted, of letters addressed
to the "Dear Brother Housewreck
ers." saying there must be "a mis
take, as Mr. Brindeil would not ap
prove of anything that was not all
right." Zaranko appealed to the
American Federation of Labor
through friendly contractors and di
rectly. He got this response even
from Frayne, trusted lieutenant of
Samuel Gompers, which is- in testi
mony of the Lockwood committee:
"Nothing can be done with Brin
deil. He seems to be a power unto
himself.
Zaranko wrote asking a conference
with, Mayor Hylan as long ago as May
26 last. Secretary Sinnott replied that
the mayor was too busy to keep such
engagements. -
As a last resort. Zaranko asked au
thority from his men to order a strike
of the wrecking industry in this city
as a protest against the lockout of lo
cal No. 85 by the contractors. This
authority was- voted August 13. Ar
rangements for the sjrike and a dem
onstration against all the Brindeil men
on wrecking jobs had been underway
three days when it was learned that
approval of the strike must be had
from Dellesandro.
La Sr nard la Offers Service.
At this point. Borough President La
guard i a heard of thQ distress of the
18.00 men and offered his services. He
asked them not to strike until he had
tried to get a hearing for them, with
the mayor and their international
union head. He found he could not
help them. They prepared to strike
again when they were warned ' on
September 10 that they had no right
to strike because their charter had
been in existence only three months
of the required six.
Brindeil and the members of his
union jeered. The contractors laughed
openly at the silliness of a new strike
by men already out of work who had
no union authority to strike. . " Volk
is remembered to have commented on
it among his friends September 1.
