PARIS DYNaMjTERS.

PARIS Nov. 9.-An explosion occurred
in this city yesterday morning by which
six persons were killed. The affair. was
undoubtedly the werk of anarchists. who
were seeking revenge against the Carmaux
Mining company, whose long continued
struggle with their employees WAS amicably
settled a few days ago. The anarchists
failed in their attempt against the COM
pany, but as they succeeded In killing two
policemen they are jubilant over the out
come of their dastsrily crime. Early in
the morning two policemen were passing
along the Avenue de FOpera. When they
arrived in front OF the Office of the Car
mauX Mining company they saw n curious
iron vessel. resembling saucepan, lying
close to the building in which the COM
pany's Offices arc located. They picked
the vessel up and carried it TO the police
station, where they and other officers began
to examine il. They had been iuvestigst-
ing only few minutes when the vessel
exploded with terrific force.
The windows OF the building were blown
out, the plastering was torn OF, aud the
furniture broken and scattered ia every
uirection-in fact, the Whole interior OF the
building was wrecked, and so great was
the force OF the explosion that even the
outer walls were damaged. The victims
were Police Clerks Pousset aud Fagard,
who were looking on while the machine
was being examined; Assistant Superiu-
teDdeDt Formorin, who WAS called IN to see
the Diachiue opened; Police I..pectors
Tronto and Reaux. and an employe OF the
Carmaux company named Gezin. Several
of these were torn to pieces by the ex-
plosion, and the walls OF the station house
were splattered with blood. Gain, the
Carmaux company's employe, who WAS
close to the machine wnen 1t exploded, was
blown TO shreds. A piece of his head WAS
found in the debris outside tie window.
Pousset was horribly muillatsd- One leg
was torn off at the thigh, aud he was dis
embowled.
A large crowd gathered about the
wrecked building and the greatest indig-
patton was expressed against the aut nors
of the outrage. TIL. affair has caused
renewal of the fears that we're experienced
dnring the time Of the outra2es perpe-
trated by Ravochol aud his sccompliees.
The public believe that this Is the FIRST OF
another series OF dynamite explosions.
The police, however, assert that the affair
WAS An attempt to blow up the Offices OF
the Carmaux Mining company. They say
that had the explosion occurred whrU the
vessel was found the result would have
been far more disastrous than IL Was s: the
police station.
The bomb, il appears, was discovered by
the cashier OF the Carmsux compsny,
who noticed it lying in the entresol of ihe
building. The Instrument Was of spueri-
cal shape and handle was attached 10 ~.
The cashier called policeman. who. with
the conpany's porier, TOOK he uDno -
