Its Object Was to Blow up the Office of
National Press.
DUBLIN, Oct. 26.-Great excitement was
caused in this city this evening by all ap-
parent attempt to blow up the Office OF the
National Press. the organ OF the Nc
Carthyites. The members Of the staff of the
paper were just On the point of beginning
the nights work when a bomb fell in the
area in front Of the windows on Abbey
street, where the rooms of the editors are
situated. The bomb exploded with tre-
mendous report, but fortunately there was
no one in these particular rooms
at the time and consequently
no one was hurt. II the missile
had been intended TO injure anybody In the
editorial rooms there is no doubt the effort
would have been pre~eminently successful,
for window glass was broken. the castings
shattered and the furniture in the room
badly damaged. The Offices in the basement
were also badly damaged, and the windows
IN all of the adjacent houses were broken.
The authorities thus far are without any
clew whatever. The fumes from the ex-
plosion had a very offensive odor.
The police think dynamite was used in
the bomb at the National Press building.
Credit for the outrage Is universally given
to Parnellites.

NEW MAIL STEAMERS.
Bids Opened for the Increase of t
Ocean Mail Service.

Bids Opened for the Increase of the
Ocean Mail Service.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 26.--At 10 o'clock this
afternoon Postmaster General Wanamaker,
in the presence of several officials of the
postof1ce department and representatives
of number OF bidders, opened proposals for
supplying the proposed increase In the
ocean mail service, under the act Of March
3, 1891. Twelve bids were received and
opened. No two of them were for the same
service The first bid was No. l3 of the
schedule, from Newport News to Rio,
Brazil, by St. Thomas, Martinique, Barba-
does, Para, Pernambuco and Bahia, once in
two weeks, twentY-six trips per year in ves-
sells of the third class each alternate trip
not to exceed nineteen days, touching at
Bahia and Pernambuco; the remaining trips
in twenty-four days, touching at all the
above named ports; contract for five years.
The bidder was the United States and Bra
zil Mail Steamship Company, the compen-
sation asked being III per mile for vessels of
the third class and 6o9s cents per mile for
vessels Of the fourth class. The Postmaster
General stated that this bid seemed to vary
somewhat from the form Of the advertise
ment.
THE OTHER BIDS.
Other bids were Boston and Liverpool,
New York and Central American ports,
San Francisco and Central American ports,
San Francisco, japan and China, New
Orleans and Central American ports, Gal
weston and Venezuela, New York, Brazil
and Argentine, New York and Venezuelan
ports, New York, Cuba and Mexico. BY
the bids rsceived to-day the time OF
the voyages upon the various route;
is reduced in amounts varying
from 10 TO 30 per cent. This, Of course,
necessitates additional ships, and in
cluding four new routes proposed for, il
would seem that there must be not
less than seventeen ships built at cost
of not less than $4,000, 900. IL all the
bids are accepted, the amount Of subsidy
required viii be about Sl,5O0,000 when the
fun service is in operation. The service
under the postal shipping bill will require
about sixty ships all told. carrying the
American flag. The department has had
knowledge OF the negotiations in progress
for other routes upon which bids
have been deferred for various
reasons, notably, the New ZealanC
service, where the difficulty seems 70 be
that the New Zealand authorities entertain
an idea of improving the service between
that country and this by making con.
cession TO the Spreckels company, bui
arguing that some of the vessels shall carry
the New Zealand flag, which would be con-
trary to the stipulation OF the postal subsidy
