Earl e. Prew's express company, who
came from Providence on q late train last
night to 20 to his home at North Attic
boro. Just as he ~. the station at High
street two fellows came up behind him.
One of them struck him with slung

ground. and the highwaymen then robbed
him of all the money that was on his per-
son-about $l0 Baker managed to crawl

Anarchists Attempt Another Bar
Colona Outrage.

Timely Discovery Prevents Second Great
Horror--Great Demonstration Was In
Progress when Plot Was Revealed.
sixty Anarchists Arrested.

BARCELONA, Nov 16.-It Is evident from
lice have not succeeded in extirpating the
nests Of anarchists in this city, and that
the latter are only awaiting an opportu-
nifty to commit further outrages.' Last eve-
ming they attempted to make the opportu-
nifty. A number Of troops, under orders to
proceed TO Melilla. in Morocco, to reinforce
the garrison there, were marching from
the barracks to the quay to embark upon a
steamer that was to convey them to their
destination. The route from the barracks
to the water-side was lined with immense
crowds who had gathered to bid the sol
diers godspeed.
While the troops wcrelmarching through
the Plaza Real. and while tho crowd was
cheering them enthusiastically, number
of workmen employed upon q private
building discovered thin trail Of smoke
ascending from one OF the lower balconies
Of the house. They at first thought the
building was on fire and made rush to
extinguish 1t. They were greatly startled
upon reaching the balcony to find that the
smoke was caused by burning
Fuse Attached TO . Large Bomb.
TIE fuse, at the time that the smoke was
discovered, had burned within few inches
of the bomb and In few minutes moro an
explosion would have resulted The fire
was quickly extinguished and the bomb
thus rendered comparatively harmless It
was handled very gingerly, however, by
its discoverers who, as soon as possible,
placed 1t in charge Of the police. The lat
ter had IL examined by experts, who pro-
nounced it to be Of the deadliest nature.
This IL not the only outrage that the
anarchists attempted yesterday. The dis
triot Of villanueva y Ia Geltru, on the
Mediterranean. 25 miles southwest Of
Barcelona, was thrown into a state Of
panic by an explosion that occurred in the
town of VillanuevA Some person last
night
Placed . Bomb by the Gates
Of the barracks of the Civic Guard. An ex-
plosion followed that caused great excite
rnent. The men in the building rushed pell-
NELL for the open air. The force Of the
explosion was very great. The gates Of the
barracks were blown off their hinges and
carried considerable distance. The walls
of the building were cracked, doors were
blown of and windows smashed. Nobody
was hurt. The police have made number
of arrests on suspicion. but there 10 no
positive evidence to connect any Of those
In custody with the explosion.

Concentration Of the Pacific Fleet
at Honolulu.
ADMIRAL IRWIN WILL COMMAND.
Ranger and Monicon Being Put In Read
iness-President VIII Send All Avail
able ships-Large Marine Force Can
Then Be Landed.

VALLEJO, Cal, Nov. l6-It Is said on
good naval authority that as soon as the
United States ships Ranger and Mohican,
now at Mare Island navy yard, can be
made ready for sea the secretary Of the
navy will order their commanders to pro-
ceed direct to Honolulu and report to
Admiral Irwin.
States ship Mohican will be made the fag-
ship of the Pacific squadron, relieving the
Philadelphia. which will Immediately pro-
ceed to Mare Island navy yard.
The ordering OF the Ranger and Mohican
to the relief Of the Philadelphia is said to
be due to the fact that President Cleveland
desires to
Concentrate All Available ships
Of the Pacific squadron In Hawaiian
waters, and the combined crews of the
Ranger and Mohican would enable the
landing of larger marine force than that
of the philadelphia
Naval officers here are extremely eau
tious in commenting upon the present atti-
tudc OF Hawaiian affairs, yet they do not
hesitate in predicting the concentration of
large United States naval force at Hon.
olulu.
Rumor is current here that Minister
Willis in going to Honolulu was the bearer
Of orders TO Admiral Irwin from the secre-
tary CT the navy directing that in the event
Of the rejection Of President Cleveland's 8
ultimatum TO the provisional government.
or any uprising, Admiral Irwin should dis
patch the United States ship Adams to the
United States with any special com NUM-
cation Minister Willis might require to
send for the information Of the Washing
ton authorities.

Mr.. Drake intended to leave on the 1880

ordnary-looking, smooth-faced men,
rather heavy and wearing large ulsters.
While Mr. Drake lay semi conscious on
