BARCELONA, Nov. Is. 1S93-It Is evil
dent from an occurrence here last night
that the police have not succeeded in exs
IL pating the nests of Anarchists in
this city. and that the latter
are only awaiting an opportunity
to commit further outrages. Last
evening they attempted to make ths ops
portunity. number of troops under
orders to proceed to Melills, in Morocco,
to reinforce the garrison thers
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 waterside was lined with
immense crowds, who had gathered to
bid the soldiers God speed. while the
troops were marching through
the Plaza Real, and while
the crowd was cheering them
enthusiastically number OF workmen
em"ioyed upon private building dis~
covered thin trail of smoke ascending
from one of the lower balconies of the
house. Thev ut first thought the build
n2 was on fire, and made rush to ex-
tinguish il.
H-AI bOoION FREY fENIEU,
They were greatly startled upon reach
lug the balcony to find rhat the smoke
was caused by a burning fuse attached
TO large bomb The fuse, at
the time the smoke was dis
covered. had burned within few
Inches OF the bomb and In a few minutes
more an explosion would have resulted.
Inc nre was quickly extlnguishsd and the
oomo thus rendered comparatively harm
less. lt was handled very giugerly
however. by its dscoverers, who
as soon as pessible placed It
In charge OF the police. The
later had it examined bv experts, who
pronounced it to he of the deadliest ma.
ture. An examination OF the house by
the police revealed nothing of suspic-
ious nature.
Inc police are inquiring into the
matter. but there is little chance of their
discovering the author of the attempted
outrage. 1t is Thought that some one
among the hundreds of persons crowd
Ing the streets threw the bomb on the
balcony and then made off.
ANOTHER OUTRAGE ATTEMPTED.
Ihls Is not the only outrage that the
Anarchists attempted yesterday. The
district OF Villanueva Y la aGeltru on the
Mediterranean. 25 miles southeast of
barcelona. was brown into a state of
panic by an explosion that occurred in the
town OF Villaneuva. Some person lat
night placed a bomb nv the gates of the
barracks OF the Civic Guard. An expIos-
ian followed that caused he grearist ex-
element aud fear and the men in the
building rushed Dell NELL for'tbe 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 wills Of the building were
| cracked, doors blown off, AMI windows
| smashed. Nobody was hurt, but
everybody in the vicinity was terribly
frightened. The police have made
number of arrests on suspicion, but there
| is no positive evidence to connect any of
those in custody with the explosion.
II W only a short time aga the police
found in this town complete laboratory
for the manufacture of explosives and
bombs
