NEW YORK. Nov. 3. —Plots to dyna mite two stations on the Interborough subway system were thwarted, accord ing to the police, by the arrest today of six men, several of them strikers, charg ed with bringing dynamise into the city and with causing the dynamite explo sion in the 110th street station on Oc tober 24. A confession which detectives say they obtained from one man under arrest says the station At Fifty-ninth street and Broadway was to have been blown up today and the station at city hall later. ’ . Several of the prisoners, the police say, appeared at a powder factory at Kenvil, N. J., yesterday and purchased fifty sticks of dynamite, 100 fulminating caps and 100 feet of fuse. Detectives were watching as a result of a clue ob tained during the investigation of the explosion last month. Two sticks of dynamite found in Central park then bore the name of a Kenvil company as the maker. James A. Murna, a former subway guard, and Thomas J. McGuire, a chauf feur of Caldwell, N. J., visited Kenvil yesterday and purchased the explosive to have been used in today’s explosion, the police say, and Murna and James J. Herlihy, a former elevated railway guard, it is charged, purchased the dyna mite in Kenvile on October 23. Murna, McGuire and Herlihy are under arrest together with George Pollok, a former elevated guard; Lawrence Kulle, a former subway guard, and Benjamin Hamilton, a former elevated guard. EXPECT OTHER ARRESTS. All these men except McGuire, the po lice say, are members of a district local of the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway employes. Police Captain Tunney, of the bomb squad, said evidence had L>een uncovered that funds to finance explosions came from the union and that other arrests would be made. Hamilton is the local business agent, Herlihy its financial secretary and Mur na its general secretary, the police as serted. The special committee of the district body plotted in a Harlem assembly hall, the alleged confession said, one speaker stating* that dynamiting methods had been used successfully during strikes in Albany, Buffalo and Philadelphia. The committee votfcd SSO and this money the police declare was used for the purchase of the explosive. Captain Turney said that the SSO was part of the collections which strikers have been taking up in the streets when they appeared with hand organs and appealed for funds. In this way the appropriation was kept off the lo cal’s books. The dynamite used in the explosion last month was taken from Kenvil to Newark, N. J., by automobile, accord ing to the confession and there packed in a suit case and transported in a taxi cab to this city. * CARRIED IN SUIT CASE. In the suit case it was carried up town in the subway. There was no one on the station platform when men carrying it alighted, the confession said, and a fuse was set which burned two and a half minutes, giving the dynamiters a chance to get to the street before the explosive went off two minutes after a train carrying passengers had left the station. The men then escaped into Central Park, and it was in climbing over a wall that one of the men dropped the dynamite which furnished the clue. The arrest of the alleged dynamiters was reported to Mayor Mitchel today while he was in conference with William B. Fitzgerald, general organizer of the Carmen's union, and other leaders of the strikers, who had requested him again to use his offices in bringing about a settlement between the strikers and the traction companies. The mayor promised the strike lead ers that after election day he would confer with President Shonts of the In terborough with a view to ending the strike through arbitration. The dynamite explosion of October 24 injured four persons. A bomb was placed under one end of the subway platform and it went off just two min utes after a train carrying passengers left the station. A milkman on the street told the police he saw five men run out of the station and disappear in Central park shortly before the explosion occurred.

MEDDERS AGE 11 GUINS 16 POUM TANUC “I Feel Better Than I Have in 20 Years,” She Says-Vol unteered as Nurse in Civil War--Rears 19 Children. “I have gained fifteen pyunds a.jd fee! stronger and better than I have felt in twenty years,” was the remarkable statement made a few days ago by Mrs. M. I. Medders, who lives at 541 Blythe avenue, Memphis, Tenn. Mrs. Medders, who is iff>w seventy-two years of age, reared nineteen children, eight of her own and eleven orphans, and her whole life has been one of great sacrifice and usefulness. At the begin ning of the Civil war she volunteered as a nurse and many old soldiers who are living today will remember the kind services rendered by her during those four years of struggle. She married soon after the war and made her home in Senatobia, Miss., where she lived for fifty years until the death of her husband, when she came to Memphis. Mrs. Medder’s hus band was in the drug and jewelry busi ness in Senatobia for a great many years and she is well known in three counties around Senatobia, as well as in Memphis, for her work of charity and motherly kindness. “For twenty years,” continued Mrs. Medders, “I suffered with a swimming in my head and often had spells some thing like vertigo. Two years ago I began suffering with pleurisy in both sides, and was down in bed from May of last year until February of this year, not able to do anything at all until Tan lac got me up. I couldp’t even ride on a street car for at least eighteen months until Tanlac relieved me of that weak and dizzy feeling. “I had no appetite at all and lived mostly on buttermilk for months and months. I couldn’t get any sound sleep and would just doze and wake up often during the night, and, of course, I got very weak. For six months my sides were a solid blister where I used lini ments and plasters trying to get relief from the awful pains caused by the pleu risy. My case was a very stubborn one and seemed to yield very little to the treatment I was using. “I think it was in February that Tan lan began to be advertised in the papers, and although I had about given up hope of ever getting up again to where I was able to do anything, I decided to try it. I was willing to try anything to ger a little relief and be able to sit up, if nothing more. But, I tell you, I was both surprised and glad after using Tan lac a few days to find it was helping me. After I got through with my flrst bottle I had a good appetite and was eating Just anything I wanted and lots of it and I was much stronger. When I finished my third «bottle I was able ,to go back in the kitchen and do mos> of the cooking and I could do nearly all of my housework, too. My nead feels better of that swimming and clearei than it has in twenty years. For years I could not raise my head and look up to turn off the electric lights, nor could I climb up the stairs, but I can now While I realize a woman seventy-two years old can’t be made into a girl again. Tanlac has certainly made a great change in me, and I never expected to feel as well any more as Ido now. My weight used to be 127 pounds, but I got down to 112 and I’m sure I’ve gained all back. I had lost and maybe more. 1 don’t have the pleurisy and lumbago any more either and feel that I’m entirely free of it. My nerves have gotten quiet and I sleep all night long nearly every night without waking up at all. Tanlac is the best medicine I have ever taken in all my life and I have taken lots of them. Medicine that will do as much for old folks as Tanlac has for me certainly ought to be good for anybody else and I hope my statement will cause others to take Tanlac and get relief as I did.” Tanlac is sold by one regular estab lished agency in every town. —(Advt.) 9 CHILDREN M 11 Can Usually /7h|A Be Cured During our 41 years of earneabeffort, we ■ I have relieved hundreds of little sufferers ■ ■ by remarkablecuresof Diiessei ot tt Spine ■ ■ snd Bip Joints, Clsb Feetsnd Inlastile P»rsly- | ■ sin,—most of them painlessly and without ■ I operation.
