LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE police last night

several arrests. They encountered no op-
position. They took possession of the
house and detained all the inmates. The
raid was managed very quietly, and the
mem bers of the club arriving late walked
unsuspectingly into the arms of the po
licemen. One of these, Frenchman.
struggled savagely, and cheered for
anarchy before he was overpowered.
The total number of prisoners is about
80. The majority of them are Germans
and Bohemians. All were examined care
fully. and then ordered to show their
passports. Few of them could do this
The police have searched several build
ings near the clubhouse, notably Bour-
din's private lodgings and the rooms Of
Jean Pierre Francois. whom the French
government considered an accomplice of
Ravachol and tried to extradite. They
found much anarchist literature in both
places, aud few explosives in Bourdin $
rooms hs
The Times says that Bourdin probably
intended TO damage the observatory with
his bomb. The Daily News says one
theory Ia that he intended to blow up
Woolwich arsenal, and alighted At Green-
wich station to elude any detectives who
might be watching him.

AFTER all the sensational state
ments connected with the reopening
of the Sugar scandal investigation
it is to end in whitewashing fizzle.
The photograph of the written order
by Senator Camden for the pur-
chase of stock was shown to that
Senator the first of this week and
he said he had no recollection of
having written it. The man who
could have furnished the direct
proofs is the fellow named Batter
shall, who claims to have taken the
order from Camden and who fur
nished the original from which the
photograph now in the possession
of the committee was made, and
who is now in Canada, whittier he
fled as soon as notified that his tes-
timony was wanted, luxuriating at
somebody's expense. The verdict
as to Senator Camden can hardly
be considered vindiction, unless
unless the Scotch verdict of mot
proven" can be so accepted. There
is still some talk of trying to get
this mess into court in order to
find out the whole truth, but it will
probably end in talk.
