This Professed Anarchist.
WASHINGTON'. Dec. IT. (U. P.)
William J. Hums, head of the I'nited
Slates secret service, left for New
' York to take active chaw of the Lin-
donfeld case. Hums has not yet re
. eclved an official cable from Warsaw
; ; reporting Llndcnfeld's arrest, but it is
i expected shortly.
j Cosgrovo is the name of the opora
' tlve who made the arrest. Hums de
; clared tho department of Justice has
been after Llndenfcld, whose sister,
' Kosa Luxembcrg, nn anarchist, wr.s
1 .; killed In Berlin In 1919.
Llndenfcld has lone been active In
; New York in propaganda wjrk. Do
; tectlves said Lindenfc'd was not di-
1 I rwtly connected with the crime, but
.? know, tho principals so connected. If
he returns voluntarily to testily, he
; will bo paid a reward for tho bombers'
capture. If not, he will be charged
iWith complicity, and brought back.
i Thirty seven persons were killed when
tho Wall Street bomb exploded.

; tails, justice department officials are
U Unaware. During the three years of J
S4 nis activities here, the police main-
tainrd a superficial watch over his
H movement.- When ho left for Poland
some time ngo, the search for some-
one familiar with the entire plot nar
rowed to hint, and Cositrovo was sent
'i abroad to arrest him and get his con
fi fesslon. Apparently he has done both.

partmcnt of justice has evidence con-
necting seoros of poofllo with the
crime, but has been holding It secret
pcndlnif a report on Llndenfcld. Lln
:'. denfold pursued propaganda activities
' here under the guise, of directing a
Slav news agency. The reward to be
p.i'e" o Llndenfcld should ho give the
evidence wanted and prove his Inno
cence of the crime, would be $50,000.

tol stated that American detectives

H.-ia miujeci 01 a spirited
discussion at today's session
of the
state highway commission.
Chairman llooth said that there
was no particular urgency in designat
ing this L'T-inlle stretch as a primary
highway in view of the fact that con
struction could not possibly follow im
mediately. He said that the cunmls- !
slon would look over the project be- i
fore making any decision. I
j The subject was Introduced by H. J. :
I Ottenheimer. chairman of the high- !
way committee of the Portland chain-
ber of commerce, who asked that the j
proposed Interstate connection be des- ;
ignated as a primary road In the sys- i
tern which is to receive federal aid
'canmissioner I'arratt interrupt
S
with a query as to what Influences
were behind the movement. The pr
posed road, he sliid, would run
through a sand and sagebrush desert
and had no scenic or commercial
value.
"If tourists were forucfi through the
desert,' 'he said, "and saw nothing but
saml they would say to h 1 with Ore
gon. Two other roads through scenic
regions suffice at present for this
travel."
Commissioner Yeon said lie was
convinced that the chamber of com
merce was not trying to dictate to me
highway commission, but that It simp-
ly asked for the designation of tno
highway commission when construe-
tion should be undertaken.
