tho drivers wero sent away before a

spectators lined tho course. Thou
sands ot automobiles and scores of
special trains carried many enthusi
asts. Thirty-one Vanderbllt entrants ar
rived at the starting point boforo

drivers drew an immense throng. It

Attempt on Secretary.
F. H. Zeehandalaar, secretary of
the Merchants and Manufacturers' as

porch at his homo in the suburbs of
this city. A detail of officers was
dispatched to the scene.
The dynamite sticks wero connect
ed with the electric battery, to which
was attached an alarm clock.
According to tho police, it was ono
of the most ingenious infernal ma
chines that ever was brought to tho
attention of tho local department.
Tho alarm was set to go off at 1
o'clock, the hour at which the explo
sion at tho Times building occurred.
Clock Wound Tight.
Tho clock was so tightly wound,
tho police who took chargo of the
machine said, that the alarm was
prevented from workln, probably
saving tho llcves of every person In
tho house.
The machine was found this morn
ing by Miss Elizabeth Wilder, a guest
at tho Zeehandalaar. home.
Officers who wero sent to tho Zee

LOS ANGELES, CaJ Oct. 1.-
By authority of the board, of direc
tors of the local typographical union,
Ralph L. Crlswell, president of tho
union, sent tho following to Managor
II. G. Chandler of tho Times:
"In view of tho terrible accident,
resulting in tho demolition of tho
Times, plant, the Loa Angeles branch
of tho International Typographical
union hereby offers you its assistance
In any manner desirable In publish
ing tho Times during this period of
stress."
Differences between the Times aiul
tho typographical union woro respon
sible for tho first broach between tho
Times nnd organized labor general
ly, which l;,r developed Into opon
warfare.
Crlswell Active.
Ralph Crlswell, president of tho
Los Angoles branch of tho typograph
ical union, vslted tho offices of Dis
trict Attorney Fredericks this morn
ing and domnnded, In behalf of his
organization, that tho explosion bo
t thoroughtly investigated.
Tho following statement was Issu
ed this morning by C. F. Grow, bus
iness agent of tho machinists lodgo, j
No. 311, International Association of!
Machinists:
'We Fight Fnlr."
"I desire to state that tho unfor-
tunnto happening at tho Times plant ,
caused tho sympathy of every union J
man in tho city of Los Angeles, for '
the loss of life and the injury to em
ployes. That any man affiliated with
tho labor unions here could ?mvo
anything to do with this explosion
nnd flrel s out of the question. Wo
mnko no war with bombs or othor
weapons than tho usual propagan
da. We fight tho enemies of union I
labor under tho recognized economic
laws. Violence has always been con-
demned, and wo do not recognize it
as a means of success. Tho unions,
here aro ready nnd anxious to aid
the police and other authorities by '
every means in their power to find!
the cause of the explosion at tho
Times building."
Deplore 'Tragedy.
Through George Gunrey, who has
been In charge of the brewers and
Iron workers' strike here, tho Los
Angeles unionists this morning is
sued a statement branding as utterly
without foundation tho charges pub
lished by tho Times to the effect that
union men were responsible for tho
explosion,
"Wo deeply deplore tho terrible
accident and resultant loss of life,"
the statement read, "but brand as
false the charge thattunlon mon wero
in any way responsible for tho af
fair. "We condemn violence, and un
equivocally deny that any person or
persons connected with organized la
bor had anything to do with last
night's outrage."
Will Assist Officers.
In view of tho fact that the Times,
in its edition published after tho ox
plosion, charged that the unionists
wore responsible, Crlswell declared
that the members of the typographi
cal union would assist the district at
torney In any way ho asked In sift
ing the case.
Tho Times appeared today under
a seven-column banner head:
"Unionists' Bomb Wreck Times."
Crlswell stated that if any union
men were employed In tho Times me
chanical departments they wero in
the building when the explosion oc
curred. He refused to admit that
union men wero employed at tho
Times. Tho paper was supposed gen
erally to make no exceptions in its
open shop rules and no union men
were supposed to bo employed hero.
A member of tho local olectrotyp
ers' union said today that four of tho
stereotypers employed by the Times
were union men. Each of tho four,
ho declared, is missing.

Managing Editor Andrews supple
mented a statement made early to
day In which ho attempted to placo
tho responsibility for tho horror by
saying:
"Dynamite and bombs and flro.
Very fitting weapons for such a deed.
Wo had received numerous threats
that this dastardly deed would bo
