THE ANTI-oPTIoN BILL.

DIR. IIntch Explains That 1t Is Only to Sup

Legitimate Dealings.
WASHINGTON, March THE board OF
trade and exchange interests had their
final hearing on the Hatch anti-option
bill before the house agricultural COM
mittce to-day. 1t developed better
feeling between them and Mr.. Hatch,
the author OF the bill. Mr.. Hatch
made 1t clear in frequent statements
that he desired to supprcsa tho illesitl-
mate branches Of trading, bucket shops,
puts and calls, and not to effect the To-
climate trade in property organized by
boards md exchanges. The representa-
tives OF the latter agreed with Mr..
Hatch that bucket shops were not pro-
per and said the only exception they
asked was IN tho line OF legitimate trad =
ing. The Chicago board Of trade was
heard to-day through Arthur Orr and
eS-Representative Abnor Taylor. Mr..
Orr said that tho Chicago board would
cooperate toward the suppression OF
tho two evils and parasites OF trade
bucket shops and puts and calls.
The board had tried to suppress them
and had secured laws against them.
They had no connection with legitimate
speculation by futures" These helped
the producer by giving him ready
market and by carrying his stock until
it was needed in the foreign market.
Chicago, he suid, is the highest relative

cents per bushel. Mr.. Orr said tho COM

board such as the recent one OF Mr..
Partridge. Such spectators always
found their level, and the history OF the
board showed that eventually they met
financial ruin.
Chairman Hatch informed Mr.. Orr
that tho sole purpose OF the bill was to
suppress curbstoue and bucket shop
dealings and to confinc operations to
legitimate boards OF trade. Tho com

suggestions on so improving tho bill as

A DYNAMITE SCARE.
The London Police Frightened by n
Bomb at Bow Street Station.
POPULARITY THOUGHT TO Be A JOKE,
hut tho Police Solcmnly Declare II
Waan't-h Bomb With burned
Fuse Attached Was Found md tho
Authorities Believe There Was an
Attempt to Blow Up tho Station,
Still tho Public Is lnCrOuulOus.

LONDON, March Tho police Of Lon.
don in general ind oithc "E" division
In particular, arc suffering from another
dynamite scare, but their previous cx-
pesienCcs In this limo have lcl tho peo-
plc to look with suspicion upon any
explosive mystery uncarthed by tho
blue coats OF London.
According to tho story OF Supcrin-
tendent Richard W. Stcgglos, OF the
police division referred to, tin box
supposed to contain dynamite or some
other high explosive, WIS found last
night upon one OF the window stills OF
the historical Bow street police station
almost fronting tho mOrt,thmouA Bow
street police court
Tho box is described as being two
inches deep, ono inch broad and hny-
ing a round hole in it from which pro-
trudcd portionB OF burning fuse.
Tho policemen who discovered tho
box Immediately gavo tho alarm. The
called and tho box was taken 10 tho OK
tremity OF tho yard Of tho police sta.
ton, where it was watGred for u long
time before anybody cared to subject it
to closer examination. The discovery
OF the alleged bomb was signalI0d to
Scotland Yard and from there the news
spread that nm attempt had 5eon made
to blow up Bow Street police station by
means OF a dynamite bomb. IN fact
tho startling news was soon magniEad
into report that the Bow Street police
station had actually been the scene OF 4
dynamite explosion.
When tho superintendent OF police,
assisted by several inspectors and sor-
geants, ct last found courage to open
tho box they found within it n car
fridge, supposed to bG loaded with
some high explosive, though, 1t should
BIO added, the skeptiCs insist that tho
cartridge only contained ordinary gun
powder. In any case the tin box was
found to he blackened with the smoke
and fire from the burned fuse and there
Is still some doubt as TO where IN at
tempt OF very weak nature was made
to cause aa explosion at tho Bow street
police station, or whether some practi-
Gu! joker has been giving the London
police another bad ecare. In any case,
the station men take the matter very
serlous, assume an air OF profound mys-
terry and insist that somebody made an
attempt to cause an explosion at the
Bow street police station.
The police arc emphatic in the de-
claration that the cartridge contained
dynamite and that it was intended by
those who placed it where it was found
to destroy the Bow street station. 1t
will, however, take considerable strong
evidence to convince tho general public
that tho policemen OF Bow street have
not been tho victims OF practical joke.

Carnot's Last Moments.

Lyons, June 25-The Associated
Press correspondent has been able to
obtain details of the last moments of
President Carnot.
When the president regained con-
seriousness after fainting at the pre-
lecture, he asked for a pen, but when
it was placed in his hand he was too
weak to write. A little while before he
died the president whispered for Col
onel Chamoine, one of the leading Off
Gals of his military household. The
colonel approached him and the dying
man pressed his hand and said: "Je
suis touche, bien touche." q am

The body of NJ. Carnot was taken in
the prefecture this evening and placed
on a train that will convey it 10 Paris.
After prayers for the dead had been
offered. the casl1et containing the re-
mains was carried out and placed on a
gun carriage.
While this was being done salutes of
artillery were fired, trumpets were
sounded and drums were beaten. All
civil and military honor was shown
the dead. The square in front of the
prefecture was densely thronged, as
were all the streets leading to the rail
way station. Troops and gen Harmes
kept the route clear. The procession
that followed included all the civil and
military authorities of Lyons and a
large number of delegations from diff
ferant cities and towns. Every man
along the line of march removed his
hat as the body passed by him. THE
people who had heretofore stood mute
and reverent before the nations mar

The Funeral.

London, June ga dispatch to the
Daily News from Paris says: The
funeral of President Carnot has been
fixed for Sunday. The remains will be
laid in the Pantheon, where Victor
Hugo is buried, beside those of Lazare
Carnot, the presidents grandfather.
The correspondent adds:
81 am told M Carnot shrank from go
ing to Lyons. He was long in deciding
to make the journey on account of the
WEAKNESS arising from his recent ill
health. When, however, his friends
began to talk of the Lyons anarchists
avenging Vaillant's death, the presi-
dent thought he was in honor bound to
go. There has been no disorder here.
There is absolutely no feeling in Paris
againstd the Italians.
despite the public grief, which is
sincere, the Parisians never had such
cool heads and so dispassionate no
ton. Daily since VailIant's death, the
president received menacing letters.
Throughout the day and night the
news vendors have been crying their
papers upon the streets, and while ]
am writing this dispatch at o'clock
in the morning their voices still rise
like a kneE.'
