LONDON, March ia St. Peters

assassination and incidents following:
The imperial carriage was attacked
on the Ekatrinofsky canal, opposite
the imperial stables, while the en-
peror was returning with the Grand
Duke Michael from Michael palace,
in a closed carriage escorted by eight
Cossacks. The first bomb fell near
the carriage, destroying the back part
OF it. The car and his brother
alighted uninured. The assassin, on
being seized by the colonel of the po-
lice, drew revolver, but was pre-
vented from firing it, The second
bomb was then thrown by another
person, and fell close to the cars feet,
its expulsion SCATTERING both Of his
legs. The car fell, crying for help.
Colonel Dorjibky, though himself
much injured, raised the emperor, who

Colonel DoUibky's sleigh. Large
crowds assembled before the palace,
but were kept back by troop of Cos
sacks. The imperial family were all

in sympathy with the Irish uprising.
He spoke Of the land system in
Ireland. Ia certain counties. he
said. tenants who have reclaimed
bog land were driven ont By fre-
quent rising Of the rent. Some of
these tenants emigrated to America
but men with long families could
not 90 this.
A long family, he explained, has
from nine TO fourteen children. A
woman who had only four children
apologized TO Mr. Redpath by saying
she had not been housekeeping
long. Nineteenth Of the landlords
are absentees. One man, the speak
er said has driven thousands Of
tenants TO their graves. Ii that
