several may dae of their injuries
"A scene OF terrible excitement followed.
Inc crowds IN he galleries were seized
VITA pale, and through binding smoke
anu dust fought hercely to escape from
the building. Tho pOlica however. with
great prOmptness had closed every exit
10 the streets and instituted AZ once the
most searching investigation for the
CRIMINALS. Both in the galleries and on
the floor OF the chamber many persons,
including women, were hurt more or less
seriously. The deputies displayed great
coolnesS, n their president, N. Dupuy,
appealed to his colleagues to continue
their discussions with cahnneSs. His re-
marks were loudly chetred and partial
order was restored. The police detained
upon suspicion 200 persons, but after a
thorough examination discharged al but
sixty, who are now held under lock and
key.
The bomb-thrower is now in custody.
His name is Valiant. He Is an anarchist
and has made a full confession. Valiant
was among the injured persons taken TO
the Hotel Deu. He had his nose blown
off. He soon feH under the suspicion Of
the authorities, and, pressed by the po-
lice, he decided 10 make a full confession,

crime. Early in the day NJ. Lepin, the
project of police, the public prosecutor
and the examining m gistrate visited the
Hotel Dieu and had a long interview
with valiant, who Gained iuCocenCe and
was quite indignant at the nature If
the questions put TO him by the different
officials. Firally the public prosecutor
sand to the suspect: Your name is Vail
ant, and rot Marchll. as claimed when
you came 70 the no spital." After a mo
ntnt of hesitation the Suspected rIan ai-
nitted his identity and Orfessad that
he had thrown the bomb which in ex-
plCdirg injured q hundred people. When

the bomb Valiant r,plied dehantly: Il
wished TO deal a thoroughly dramatic

Dupuy (the president Of the chamber of
leputies.) l glory in the act, and l only
regret that ny hlnd swerved and the
tumb dill not exTlCde near the mark"
Experienced detectives, whose duty it Is
TO devote themselves entirely 10 watching
a TIrchists and reporting upOn their doings
and sayings, express the belief that Vail,
ant had a number of accomplic%, but
valiant replied TO all questions on this
subject with the remark: You need not
put yourself 10 the trouble of searching
for accomplices. / alone did the deed
The pinion is expressed, however, that
several of those who are now under ar
rest are a~ccomplI1es of Valiant. The OK,
a~IpiDing magistrate IS known 10 have OBJ
tline1 at least two important dispositions
regarding the authors of the crime. Sus
picion rests especially 0u four persons
one of whom is a man named Vincent
who twice gave a false address; the
others Also gave false addresses and
made contradictory statements to tn:

pniuing the suspects. Last night tbs
police made a searCL of the house of &
u an suspected and claim to have Obtainel
valuable information. The condition o!
the il jured is satisfactory, ard il j. now
hoped that no lives viii be lost through
