Anarchy in France.

a ieNef Oh excitement and alarm over the
dynamite outrages of yesterday and the
Ell Tire detective force is at work enJeav-
oring to find the culprits. A number of
persons are suspected and it is probable
many anarchists will be under arr. st
within the next few hours
The bomb found in the hotel No A Rue
du Foubourg ST. Martin after the explo-
sion in the hotel at 90 Rue 81 Jacques,
was discovered through letter received
by Police Commissary Dresch. The lie ter
was signed "Etienne Rabarly'' aud an
nounced that the writer was about to
commit suicide at the hotel referred to.
Ihe police commissary went TO the place
expecting that he would find the body of
"A dead man. When he opened t1e door
OF the room to which he was directed he
found instead bomb The whole thing,
it is thought, was a plot to kill NJ. Dresch,
but the trap failed to work, the bomb not
exploding. NJ. Dresch is the officer who
arrested Ravachol
NJ. Belonino, the police commits 'ary in
the Sorbonne district, also received II let
ter signed 'Etienne Rabardy," similar to
the one received by NJ. Dresch but he did
not go to the hotel until after the explo-
sion occurred.
NJ. Girard, the chief of the municipal
laboratory, made proposal that the
bomb found by NJ. Dresch be exploded
by electricity in the place where it
was found in order tlat he might
study the effects of the explosion
NJ. Raynal referred the proposal to the
cabinet and council was held ut the
Elysee palace, the result being that NJ.
Girard was authoriz I'd to carry out the
experiment by placing a dynamite car
fridge on each side of the bomb and eX-
ploding them by means of an electric
battery. All the residents of the house
Were driven out, and when every thing
was ready for the explosion, every win
daw of the surrounding houses were
packed with spectators. The police hav-
ing driven the people out OF the street
in the immed ate vicinity, Police Prefect
l4ei,ine gave the order to turn on the
current and there was sudden detona-
tion like the explosion of cannon. The
room was found completely wrecked and
filed with the odor of picric acid. Pro
jecfl!es, bobnails and bits of zinc We're
altered all over, NJ. Girard says that
the bomb was evidently splendidly made
The explosion, earlier in the day, ut the
hotel as 60 Rue st. Jacques, was terrific.
The building is in ruins and Madame
Caiabresi, the proprietress, is mortally
wounded receiving terrible wound in
the stomach. The two dodgers, also
injured, will recover There are sew
eral theories to account for the eXplo-
sion. One is that the bomb had a time
fuse attached to it, though 50 far as
can be learned, no smoke was seen as
cending from anywhere in the vicinity of
the bomb. Another is that the bomb con
tained some acid solution that soaked
through cotton or other material until it
reached the explosive in the bot tom of
the in 'ernal machine. The third theory
is that the opening of do r destroyed
the equilibrium of the bomb, which, top
ping over, fell to the floor, exploding by
concussion.
The excitement caused by this outrage
was added to when it was learned That an
attempt had been made to blow up, or at
least injure, the handsome buildings of
the ministry of foreign affairs on the
Quai d Orsay. A metal tube was found
lying at the entrance of the fore gn Office
which, it was suspected, was loaded with
dynamite. The tube was turned over to
the police and an examination proved it
to b. deadly engine of destruction.
The hotels are already sufferers from
the scare caused by the anarchists, and it
of the Willingness of the anarch lists to
spread the propaganda by the act" will
cause a further falling off in their receipts
william Visits Bismarck.
BERLIN, Feb. 20.-Emperor Williams
journey to Friedrichsruhe to return the
visit of Prince Bismarck was marked by
one continuous ovation, and it is possible
that the emperor was never before
Bi marck locked cheerful and fairly
strong. He was wrapped in gray cloak,
made at the emperor's orders after the
style of the new army mantles and re.
Gently sent to Friedrichsruhe with his
majestys compliments. He expressed his
disapproval of the police efforts to push
back the crowd, and remarked to two or
three of the Jealous officers: "If these
persons wish to see, let them see as much
as possible"
The party Immediately proceeded to the
princes residence, where Princess Bis
marck, who was in the main hall, warmly
wec )med his majesty.
Neither Count Herbert nor Count Viii
liam Bismarck was present
The dinner in the castle was informal.
All the guests enjoyed animated colver-
sation with their host. After the eleven
courses mad been served the prince pro-
posed the toast to the emperor, who re-
spondeI cordially Each spoke only
few words.
The park around the castle was illumi-
mated. One device of colored gas lamps
showed the words: "Wllhelm and Bis
marck." His majesty was so much pleased
with this combination of names that he
called Bismarck to the window t. direct
his attention to it.
The imperial party, accompanied by
Bismarck, left the castle at $3.50 o'clock.
A cheering crowd awaited them near the
station.
The firemen who had been drawn up to
keep the the spectators back were unable
to hold them back. The people broke
the lines AMI thronged the road
way close to the carriages The emperor
and old chancellor smiled and bowed re
peatedly in response to the constant
cheering, The parting at the station was
as cordial as the welcome. Tne imperial
train arrived in Ha nburg an hour later.
While the emperor was at the station the
crowd outside cheere1 incessantly for the
