INVESTIGATION STORY
SAN FRANCISCO BOMB
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct., 1,—Three
important developments came, as
authorities here and in Portland
continued their investigation of
the story of Paul Callicotte, a 32
^ar-old Portland man who swears
mat he placed the death-dealing
suitcase bomb at the corner of
Steuart and Market Streets on
Preparedness Day in 1916.
He was an unwitting agent, he
declares, and merely carried the
suitcase from Oakland to San
Francisco where he met a man
who directed him to place the case
at the very spot where the explo
sion occurred a few minutes later.
Apparently inclined to take his
story seriously, high police execu
tives, after a conference, ordered
a searching inquiry into every de
tail and announce that Callicotte
may be brought into San Francisco
within a few days if results of the
inquiry warrants it.
An unexpected witness appeared
voluntarily in Portland and swore
that he had known the man who
received the suitcase bomb which
Callicotte brought to San Francis
co. The man was a gunman in
the Lulow, Colo., mine trouble in
1913, according to the witness and
had admitted his pgrt in the San
Francisco bombing.
The Tom Monney’s Moulders De
fense committee, hitherto inclined
to regard Callicotte as a publicity
seeker, declared that at least one
part of his story cannot be ex
plained except on the assumption
tljat he actually was present at
Market and Stuart. This is his
reference to a mounted officer. It
is true that a mounted officer was
present, the committee declared,
but the fact had- never been pub
lished prior to Callicotte’s state
ment.
