Paris, Dec. "a dynamite Iomb was
exploded in the chamber Of deputies
this afternoon. Deputies Lemyrede
Wilers, and one of the socialist depu-
ties and an attendant were killed. A
later report says ore or more addi-
tional deputies We're killed or injured,
The police allow no details 70 reach
the public, notwithstanding 1t is in
sisted that two deputies are dead and
many wounded, but probabilities are
that the police statement Is correct
though doubtless a number Of depu-
ties are wounded. Among them are
mentioned Dumas, deputy from Allier
1t is said the bomb was filled with
slugs, which were thrown I'M all direc-
tions, some going into the galleries
Fortunately there were but few people
in the galleries. The police have ar
rested number of persons in the gal
leries at the time. One is said to have
been the man who threw the bomb.
1t has been learned later that at least
score were wounded. 1t is now be-
lieved the man who threw the bomb
escaped, and that he is wounded.
The prefect of police, the procurator
of the republic and the procurator-
general hurried to the chamber as
soon as they heard of the outrage, ahd
at p. m. all the entrances to the
Palais Bourbon were guarded by gem
darmes, and but few spectators remain
ed in the vicinity. The police now ad.
nit that the contents Of the bomb
were spread all over the tribune and
chamber, and that had it exploded on
the floor instead OF in the gallery,
or more correctly speaking, as it was
falling from the gallery, the number
of victims would have been very large.
In view of the description given by the
officer of the man who threw the
bomb, the police are keeping a special
watch over all who have been injured
about the arms, and it Is believed that
though the man may have worn light
beard when he threw the bomb, IT, Is
quite possible for him to have thrown
it off during the excitement which fol-
lowed the explosion. The room re-
served for the wounded at the Palais
Borboun has only one bed, and it was
occupied by wounded spectator. In
the third bureau, an Associated Press
correspondent recognized the Able La
mire lying covered with blood on
mattress supplied from the soldiers
quarters. The face of the wounded
deputy was covered with bandages, ana
he appeared to be suffering great pain
On chair in the same room was d
lieutenant Of infantry who had two
fingers Of his right hand fractured.
The lieutenant was in the tribune when
the bomb was thrown. Eight or ten
other wounded people were found
around a table in the second bureau.
where their wounds were being bathed
and dressed Nearly all the wounds
were on the face, chest, or legs. In
this bureau the most serious case was
that of a lady suffering from frac-
tdred knee cap. The wounded limb
was placed in splints.
A correspondent found an elegantly
dressed Austrian lady in the telephone
room, badly wounded about the head,
from which the blood was running
freely. Col. Nasuret, of the Rouma-
Man army, who was in the chamber
when the bomb exploded was badly
wounded about the neck and hands.
The colonel showed piece of bomb
which had heen extracted from a
wound In his neck All the rooms in
he Palais Bourbon are being converted
INTO temporary hospital wards. The !
senior questeur of the chamber this
,vening was on guard at the door
eadins to the Palais Bourbon, and
permits the deputies and officers who
iesire to do so to leave the -palais in
rider to reach their families.
