Probability that the bomb thrown at the Leaside transformer eastern fence was only a "smart aleck“ iriek by juvenile-minded rdults, was strengthened from an analysis of the bomb and powder. No nitro- glycerine or high-grade powder was found in remains of the bomb, but from the relics it was judged that a small amount of common black powder had been placed in tlic bottom, enclosed in a syrup tin. The explosion had it occurred, would have been like that of a very large firecracker. it is not thought likely the person who threw the missile ever lntentled that it should go over the Hydro fence, but only wanted to frighten the guards.
