An inâ€" vestigation followed the finding of the valise, and the police learned that the watchman on the bridge had besn set upon by five men rfuring last night, when he caught them in the act of placing a charge of dynamite under the structure. The watchman succeeded in driving off *the men, who dropped the dynamite into the river. It was picked up by a barge captain, who turned it over to the police. While many lawless acts were perâ€" petrated during the night by strike sympathizers, no person was seriousâ€" ly hurt, a half dozen cars were damâ€" aged by the explosion of dynamite, and one or two persons were slightly ecut by broken window glass.
