plosion In Exchange Court last December.

at the Kilmainham barracks, and Lord

sands had gathered, and today half of the
city has been in the neighborhood, but the
crowds have been kept back by . double
Gordon of police, who will keep the court
yard intact until after the arrival Of the

The purpose Of the persons throwing
the bomb was not to sacrifice human life,
as at that hour the immediate neighbor-
hood was deserted. The Nationalists be-
lieve the thrower of the bomb intended to
embarrass the government The police
attribute the act to Unionist agent. who
wished to make an impression on Irish
