It is learned that James Larkin, the radical Labour leader, made an affidavit admitting advance knowledge of the Black Tom explosion in June, 1916, in which four were killed and a hundred injured and millions of dollars worth of property damage was caused. The affidavit has been filed with the German-American Mixed Claims Commission at Washington.
