PARIS, Feb. 15.-After considerable trou.
BILE the police have finally established the
identity Of the man who threw the bomb
In the cafe of the Hotel Terminus Monday
night. The authorities believed the name
Leon Breton" given by the man when he
was arrested was an alias, and inquiries
to establish his identity were pursued in
every direction. IL has now been ascer-
tanned that his right name is Emile Henry.
He was born of French parents in Bar
celona, Spain, on Sept 20, 1872 He recently
lived in London, where the police knew
him to be an anarchist.
Emile Henry is a brother Of Fortune
Henry, who is now undergoing term of
imprisonment at Clairvaux for melting
murder Their father was a member of
the Commune, and was sentenced to death
In Contumacian for being absent from
court when his trial was called. He had
fed the country, and afterwards died in
Spain. The anarchist Sebastian Faure,
Vaillant's friend, was at Clairvaux at the
same time Fortune Henry, over whom
Faure had great influence, was serving his
time. Faure used to gather around him
the anarchist prisoners and harangue them.
Inspector Duchatel, referring to an in
terview with Henry yesterday, said;
"Henry remarked that he alone was re-
sponsible for the explosion in the cafe be-
meath the Hotel Terminus, adding that
Valiant was child to put nails in his
bomb in order to blow up the bourgeois.
Henry also said that there was better ma
terial than that to be had, and he was sur
prised that his bomb did not have more
effect than 1t did"
Henry is guarded by two detectives, who
have instructions according to the French
custom, to endeayor to induce the prisoner
to talk.
The prefect OF police had two hours
conference with the minister of the inte-
rior and it is reported that the police of
fetal mentioned has received secret ad-
vices from the police department Of Lon
don to the effect that the explosion at
the Hotel Terminus was only part of a
scheme which Henry and certain of his
companions had arranged before leaving
London. II was the intention of Henry
and his accomplices, according to the Lon
don advices, TO commit as many outrages
rs possible, and it is believed that the pris-
| some manner before long.
The police of this city are engaged in an
active search for Henry's fellow conspir-
ators The police took another photograph
of Henry, which shows him to have short,
stiff hair, restless eyes and a youthful face,
The prisoner, according to the police, un-
| doubtedly came from London in company
with three other anarchists, and the Lon
don police assert that they have informa-
ton which leads them to believe that
Henry and his accompllces, previous to
leaving England, had planned, among
other outrages outlined, to cause ter
rible explosion in the Paris Opera house,
which was to include, in addition to the
explosion of several bombs, the cutting
off of the gas supply, thus preventing the
attendants from lighting up that place OF
entertainment after the explosions had ex-
tlnguished the electric lights.
1t was stated in the lobbies of the cham
Der of deputies that the police who have
been on the trail of Henry's fellow con.
Epirators are now close upon them, and
that their arrest within very short time
will be announced.
A bundle of anarchist leaflets, printed in
England, are in the possession of the police
of this city. These leaflets contain threats
to murder President Carnot and threat
ened the lives of the ministers and magis-
tracy.
The impression is general that special
system is necessary to punish bomb throw
ers, and that when caught redhanded they
should be tried by drum head court mar
tial and executed Immediately without
the chance to pose as heroes.
