Sr. PETERSBURG. March 16.-A
considerable amount Of money has
been raised by public subscription
for those persons who were wound
ed By the explosion Of the bombs on

TnE IMPRISONED ASSASSIN.

Roussakof, the thrower OF the
first bomb, IS n thick-set, short
neckea, and repulsive looking dark
man. He is very stubborn in his
refusal to reply to any questions.
He, however, on being shown the
corpse OF the individual who evil
dently threw the second bomb, and
who was MORALLY wounded, recog-
nized his accomplice. The house
from which Roussakof obtained the
bomb has been discovered. As
soon rs the police appeared the
male occupant of the house shot
himself, but 4 woman living with
him was arrested. The police found
there a number of grenades, and a
proclamation stating that the assas-
sination had been accomplished by
two persons. This morning young
man entered the house and was i'm
mediately arrested, but not until he
bad fired n revolver six times,
wounding six policemen. One of
the stories in circulation is to the
effect that last week the Car re-
ceived a small box ostensibly con-
tanning pills, with a letter from
abroad. When DR.. Botkin opened
the box slight explosion occurred.
The pills were found to contain a
highly explosive substance, and
enough TO kin three persons if all
the contents simultaneously ex-
ploded. \ special supplement of
the Official Gazette contains state
ment from tie Minister of the In
terror that one Of the chief organ
izers of the attack on the Car, who
was arrested on March II, has con-
lessed his completely in planning
the decd and denounced Roussakoff
in person. The officer who assist
ed TO raise the Car says he retained
sufficient consciousness to request
to be taken to the palace to die.
