CRIMES OF CODINA.
The Barcelona Bomb Thrower Makes
Further Confession.
ASSIGNED TO KILL cAMpoS.
His Courage Oozed Out. whercupon Pailas
Seized and Threw the Weapon
OF Destruction

BARCELONA, SPAIN, December g.
Jose Codlna, the Anarchist. who has al
ready confessed that he threw the bomb
that caused upward of thirty deaths in
the Lyceum Theatre. has made a further
confession. giving details OF his crimes.
He says that he was selected by an An
archist group TO assassInate General Mar
tinez de Campos in September last. He.
in company with two or three comrades.
including Pallas, went TO view the march
past Of the troops It being his intention
to assassinate Campos. who was the re-
viewing officer. He took a position from
which II would have been an
easy task to carry out his
project. but when the troops ar
rived his courage failed. The reason for
this, he says, was that he realized that
II he threw bomb amid the vast crowd
that surrounded General De Campos he
would have killed or wounded hundreds
OF persons. He had the bomb ready TO
throw. but the thought of the many inno-
cent persons that would suffer restrained
him from throwing 1t. Pallas, as the time
Codlna to throw the bomb.
Seeing that Codlna hesitated, Pallas an
grily snatched the bomb from him, say
ing: You're no good"
PALLAS ALSO HESITATES.
Pallas's nerves were evidently unstrung
by the wrangle. and for time he hest
tated to throw the bomb that he had
seized. Had he thrown 1t as he originally
intended he would have killed General
De Campos. but the delay, which followed
the crowd surging about the reviewing
stand to grow thicker, saved the life OF
the General.
Pallas when arrested, and until his exc
cution. insisted that he alone was re-
sponsible for the attempted assassination,
and despite the close questioning of the
authorities, he never by a word betrayed
that Codina, or any one else, had any
thing TO do with the crime 1t was this
fact that made him hero in the eyes OF
the Anarchists, who knew all the facts.
His stolclsm and willingness to accept
death rather than TO betray his comrade
led Codina TO determine that he would
give effect 10 Pallass threat that his exc
cutlon would be avenged. Shortly after
Pallas was shot at Mount Juich Codlna
began his preparations to avenge his COM
rade's death, and the explosion at the
Lyceum Theatre followed.
ANOTHER ANARCHIST LABORATORY
The researches OF Project Larroet have
resulted in the discovery OF another An
archist laboratory and the seizure Of forty
pear-shaped bombs. each Weighing twelve
kilos. The authorities have also seized
quantity OF nltro-glygerine and other ex-
ploslves, In addition TO a stock Of fulmi-
mating caps and books on chemistry.
Another laboratory OF the Anarchists
has been discovered at Monta de Val
videra, village near this city.
An Anarchist named Cersuelo, who was
arrested at Hueseca, and brought to the
Monte Juich fortress here. Is reported to
have confessed his completely in the
Lyceum Theatre outrage.

Privileges of British Peers.

Pericles, when explaining Athenian de-
mocracy in one of his speeches, says: I'm
the matter OF legal rights. every man
stands on the same footing in all private
suits in our courts" This Is, however,
not the case with us, although we, like
the Athenians, boast OF being a demo-
cracy; for last Friday Judge Lumley
Smith, on an application In the Westmin-
ster County Court TO set aside commit
tai order made against the Marquis or
DonegaU. observed: 'Inasmuch as the
court has been informed that the Marquis
is n baron OF the House of Lords the
order will have 10 be Cancelled" 1t would
seem, therefore, that our hereditary legis-
Iators are absolved from the operation
~ the ordinary law in cases OF debt.
Whether this be right or wrong we evil
IDENTIFY are not, like the Athenians, all
equal before the law.
