FRENCH ANARCHY.
The House ola Public Prosecutor
Wrecked by Eight Pounds
of Dynamite.
The Anarchists Inaugurate a
War of Magisterial En-
termination.

PARIS, March 2S.-There was 8 terrific ex-
plosion of dynamite this morning at 80 Rue
Clichy, the homo OF NJ. Roulet, the public
prosecutor. Tie attempt was against his
life, which has been threatened repeated y
lately by anarchists. The police say that
at least eight pounds OF dynamite must
have been used.
The effect OF the explosion was indescrib-
able. Houses for an eighth offs mile on
every side of No. 80 were rocked as il by an
earthquake. All windows were shattered
in the neighborhood and walls of the
strongest buildings in the immediate yicin-
Ity were cracked and bulged. No. 80 is a
wreck. The explosion, which is thought
TO have taken place in the ground hallway,
blew the stairway to splinters, SO that the
panic stricken inmates had to be helped
down from the upper floors with ladders.
The furniture throughout the house was
thrown into heaps and against the walls so
that not a whole chair or table remained.
The windows and frames and all were
blown out completely, the bricks were
driven from place and dropped to the
street. The plas:ering was stripped clean
from all walls and ceilings.
{ Seven persons were injured by the explo-
sion-:our by being throw rom chairs on
which they were sitting and three from
falling debris. Mr.. Boulot, who lived OIL
the fifth floor, escaped without injury.
WAR OF DIFFERENTIATION.
The theory that anarchists have been
preparing the in cernal machines and dyna-
mite bombs already discovered for May /,
has been abandoned. The police are con-
WINGED that they have begun a war OF ex-
termination OF all persons in office who
have antagoniZet them, so as TO brighten
magistrates out OF conyicting their com
rades apprehended in crime.
A leading anarchist outlines the pro-
gramnie OF his comrades thus:
The anarchists, as they are showing, have in
their hands the means of securing immunity
from the courts and pubic officials. These
means consist In holding personally responsible
every individual who assists ia cOnyicIing them.
Magistrates are mortal aud amenabIe TO fear.
To give them the necessary lessons, as in the
case OF NJ. Bouiot, it will be indispensable to
blow up the house OF every Judge or public
prosecutor who has assisted recently in sending
anarchists To prison. After We have treated a
lew magistrates and prosecutors in this way,
Vlctloa oil anarchists, as he viii know
that such conviction is his own
death warrant and perhaps the death warrant
Of his family. The method is easy and not dan
gerous, as We have allies in every neighborhood
who are readyto facilitate the escape OF the
perpetrators OF such an act OF Justice. The po-
lice have not caught any OF the men who are re-
sponsible for the two last explosions. although
they think :hey have. We do not intend 10
make the innocent suffer with the guilty. and SO
we warn people not TO live in houses with per
sous who are active in the prosecution OF Us.
We wish to make il SO that the judges and law
yers who prosecute us will be Obliged to live
alone, and landlords will refuse to rent proper
ty to them for lear OF our vel. geamce. When we
can make our prosecutors the gariahs OF society
III this way we shall have taken a long step
towards the revolution.
NJ. Goron, chic: detective, is convinced
that Ravachol is the culprit. Late tonight
a den darme found an internal machine at
the livery barracks and pulled out its light
ed fuse. Sixteen persons were more or less
shocked by the explosion.
