She heard the explosion and, looking out, saw pieces of wreckage flying about. Beside, the Greenwood house dam age was done to three fine, large houses occupied by wealthy Oak-landers in the vicinity. These were the fine Browne-Everts home, the Kajes home across the street, and the home of Giles Eastern at 1571 Harrison street PANIC ENSUES AS KXPIjOSION IS HEARD. The whole district was shaken. Residents in the neighboring blocks hurried out of their houses in a panic.

There's smoke, there's smoke over there," 'the, children shouted as they ran hi the tfiirecUon, of the Greenwood home. Mrs. Greenwood apparently was in the library wrfting letters just before the explosion.

The library opens onto a court in the rear. The house forms an on two sides. In the rear is the garage and a fence and on the other -side is a fence and a gate opening on a road that runs into thp Btreet. The evidence shows that the bomb must have been planted at this gate. There was a mail, box Just across the street to which Mrs.

Greenwood was probably going. Whether Mrs. Greenwood sprung a trap, stumbled on the bomb or had picked it up and let it drop have not i been determined. Bits of cloth that were evidently part of a bomb were picked up. BITS OF CIjOTHINO BIOWN INTO TREE TOrs.

Her body was found Ijrtns on its back. It was not dismembered, but her face and chest were mutilated from fragments of broken brick and wood that struck her. One piece crashed through her skull. Much of her clothing was torn from her and scattered in all directions. Pieces of wire from the fence and bits of the clothing were blown high up into nearby trees.

Greenwood hastily dressed, came' downstairs and helped take the body into the house. Greenwood and a cook, lna Johnson, were the only persons in the house at the time.

SAME METHODS USED IN AIJj ATTEMPTS The Greenwood explosion is the third In the series attributed to the gang supposed to have dynamited the Hutchinson home and the home of Governor William D.

Stephens In Sacramento. In each case the same methods were used, say the police, and in each case money was demanded, this to bo left at the end of the Trestle Glen car lines. The C. of letters threatening Governor Stephens and Senator Hiram Johnson, are supposed to have a connection with the mysterious band of dynamiters. The pollco today worked on several different angles, following down a multiplicity of clews, but in the search failed, they say, to unearth any definite details.

They looked up possible enemies of the Henshaw family, of which Mrs. Greenwood was a member, on a rumor that threats had been made against the Henshawa, but the fact that the Hutchinsons are not connected with the Henshaws made the theory of fcMngaulntenable, according to the inspectors on the case. T. N. T.

USED, DECLARE EXPERTS ON EXPLOSIVES District Attorney Ezra Dccoto, who is conducting a line of investigation separately from the police, today received a report from the powder experts, headed by Harry East Miller, which ho says indicated the use of T. N. T. No definite idea of what was used as a detonator was gained, by the experts, who presume that some form of fulminate of mercury or silver, timed to a couple of hours, was contained in the deadly mass of explosive. The bomb was covered wrfh rags and bound together with wire: Mrs.

Greenwood had been writing letters and checks to pay household bills, and had apparently risen from her work in a little den adjoining the Greenwood ballroom and stepped out of the rear door toward the 4 nnDathl trt' rvi a i 1 ti.f 1 nc. cording to the police. By strange coincidence, or by reason' of her touching the gate, the bomb exploded at that moment The force of tho explosion ripped the clothing from her boSy and the detonation shook the neighborhood. Summoned by neighbors who heard the explosion, Police Corporal Maxey and a squad of men responded, to be followed by Inspector Will- lam J. Kmlgn, inspector iom nai- lasher ami later Inspector Tom Woods.

Today Captain of Detectives James T. Drew and Chief of Police Henry Nedderman took direct personal charge of the investigation.

The Stephens dynamiting was IniiPh) the. samo source because the demand on Governor Stephens for t.Ki.aou ordered It to bo plaoed near the I'Pot named In Instructions, and an Oakland postmark on one or tho letters further Indicated the Oakland origin of rhe threats.

"It might have been nny one of several highly concentrated explosives and the typo of concentration that could be ob-obtalned as result of getting the proper derivatives from the- stolen dynamite is not a far-fetched theory. "The bomb which killed Mrs, Greenwood exploded probably three feet from the ground and must tavfe been mad of a very high concentration. The condition of tho body of the dead woman Hhowa conclu sively, it is believed by the experts. that the t)omb did not expioue. on tho ground.

Furthermore, the fact that there were no powder marks on the body or any part of the clothing goes further to show that it was a highly concentrated type of explosive that would not leav a powder burn such as would bo left by dynamite. "The clew unearthed In the bringing to light of the tbeft of dynamite from the OaVland l'avlng Company ma nrove ljb one of the- roost valuable-pieces of Information tho authorities have yet obtained. "Two stand out above everything else; first, the bomb was of a high concentration; second, It was not on the ground when It exploded. Whether It was tied In some way to the wire of the fence near the spot where the tragedy took place is a question hard to solve. on the other hand, the bomb was thrown and exploded in mld-alr or was exploded after striking Mrs.

Greenwood, is fan equally difficult problem to solve." Hundreds of pieces of metal In sizes of from an elgfcth of an inch to six inches were picked by the police from the boards of a fence near the scene of the explosion.
