one of the chief organizers of the at
tack upon the Gar arrested March

nounced Rossakoff in person. Rous-
sakoff being shown the corpse of the
individual who evidently threw the
second bomb, and was himself NOR
tally wounded, recognized his ac-
complice. The house from which
Roussakoff obtained the bombs was
discovered, and as soon as the po-
lice appeared the male occupant
shot himself, but q woman living
with him was arrested. The police
found q number of grenades and a
proclamation stating that the as
sassination had been accomplished
by two persons. This morning a
young man entered the house and

until he had fired a revolver six
times, wounding three policemen.

pills, with a letter from abroad.
When DR.. Botkin opened the box a
slight explosion occur.ed. The pills
were found to contain a highly ex-
plosivesubstance, there being enough
to kill several persons if all the con-
tents had exploded simultaneous
ly.
The authorities made some i'm
portant arrests previous to the as
Roussakoff was TO have
been tried on Tuesday, but he hav-
ing begun to make important reve-
lations his trial has beeH postponed.

pecially among the students of the
school of Mines. Triumphant Nj
hilist proclamations are being strewn

sTRATEGY>oF THE NIIILIsTs.
PARIS, March ia letter from
Geneva in Tfansiagent says: After
the abortive attempt at the Winter
Palace the police seized 00,0O0franc-
es, constituting the Nihilist fund,
and until they had gotten together
more money the Revolutionary
party were obliged to keep quiet.
Warnings, however, were repeatedly
sent to the Emperor, the last one
him on the Sd inst, but all
were disregarded. To avert the at
tention of the police the Nihilists let
it be supposed explosives were be-
ing manufactured in London, while
they were being prepared in St Pc
tersburg. The fatal bombs were
loaded by women" The writer adds :;
"There is no Nihilist by the name Of
Ressakof1."
The Toltaire has a telegram stating
that the entrails of the Gar literal
ly gushed out when the bomb struck
him. An anonymous letter announc-
ing the intended assassination, was
sent the Princess Dalgourouki on
Sunday morning, and she endeavor-
ed to persuade the Emperor to stay
at home. A Nihilist placard pro-
claiming death to Alexander, and
warning his successor if he did not
adopt liberal policy he would
share his fathers fate, was posted
on the walls of st. Petersburg Sun
day evening. The Holtaire counsels
the new Car to break at once with
Bismarck and the Germans, and
adds: "Our wishes are neither I'M
timely nor impertinent. The new
Car will be French enough for us if
thoroughly Russian"
ADDRESSES OF CoNDoLENcE.
BERLIN, March 15.-The Emperor
in receiving the Presidents and Vice
Presidents of the Reichstag, who
presented addresses of coincidence,
said the death of the Car affected
him doubly at his time of life. The
relationship between Russia and
Prussia had continued for three gen
erations. The deceased had been
very near to his heart. His fall
proved that Divine Intervention
alone could protect the lives of mon
archs or determine their destinies.
Nevertheless legislative bodies should
do their duty in respect to. all de-
structivc tendency and place bounds
to them in time.
LONDON, March 15.-In the House
Of Commons to-day Mr.. Gladstone
moved an address to the Queen ex-
pressing the sentiments of the House
relative to the assassination of the
Emperor of Russia. Northcote SEQ
