ANARCHISTS AGAIN.
Another Bomb Explosion StartIes Paris and
Does DAMAGE

Another Bomb Explosion StartIes Paris and
Does Damage.
PARIS, April 5.-Another bomb explosion
occurred here near the Palais du Luxem-
bOurg, otherwise the Palais du Senat, or
senate chamber. The explosion has caused
renewed CONSERVATION in official circles,
as it was generally believed that there was
no further danger of bomb explosions,
thanks to the vigorous measures adopted
by the government and carried out by the
police.
The bomb was placed in a flower box on
the window sill of the fashionable Foyot
restaurant, % Rue Vanguard, opposite the
senate chamber and at the corner of Rue
de Condo The bomb exploded with ire
mendous report and shattered all the win
dows of the restaurant, besides breaking
the windows in a number of other build
ings.
NJ. Taillade the anarchist poet, and his
wife We're seriously injured, and many 9th
er persons were hit by the flying nails with
which the bomb was filled.
The bomb thrower was seen by a person
passing near the restaurant, and the latter
gave good description of he criminal to
the project of police, witNth result that
100 detectives were soon on the trail of the
bomb thrower. So promptly did the po-
lice work that but a comparatively short
time elapsed before the alleged anarchist
was in custody.
The cashier of the restaurant was Nine.
Leroux. Her hair was completely burned
off. Que of the walters was rendered COM
pletely deaf by the conclusion. So great
was the force of the explosion that all the
windows in the Rue de Condo for a dis
lance of $50 meters were blown to atoms.
The police have found embedded in the
ceiling of the restaurant many pieces of
iron and tin from the bomb. A spring and
a wheel were also found, indicating that
clockworl< was used to cause the bomb to

COXEY'S MEN KEPT CLOSE.
The Pittsburg Police Allowed Them but
Little Freedom.

The Pittsburg Police Allowed Them but
Little Freedom.
PITTSBURG April 5.-The commonwea
formed in line and made an attempt to
Slarch to Pittsburg, where large meet
ing was to be held on the Monongahela
wharf. The Pittsburg and Allegheny po-
lice authorities put their veto on this move,
and the veterans We're compelled to return
to their barracks. Notwithstanding the
absence of the army the meeting was held
on the wharf as announced. An immense
crowd had gathered, the lowest estimates
placing the number between Il, 900 and 20
600 people. CoXey and Browne made their
customary speeches, varying little from
former efforts.
Again at night the commonwealers as a
body We're prevented from carrying out
their intention of attending the Palace the
alter, where during the evening CoXey was
booked for a speech from one of the boxes.
As the army was about to move on the the
alter Chief of Police Murphy confronted
them with large posse of police and for
babe them leaving the exposition grounds.
Carl Browne m ade vigorous protest, but
realizing that he was under the ban le Or
dered his men to return to their quarters
The severe discipline exercised by the po-
lice toward the COXeyites is accounted for
in a measure by the fact that during the
previous night Judge Braden's house was
robbed, the plunderers securing $50 in cash
and other valuables, and number of 9th
er smaller houses were ransacked.
The police attribute these depredations
to Coxey's army or it's followers and will
allow them no more freedom than is neces-
sary.
The commonweal left Allegheny this
morning, accompanied by the Pittsburg
and Allegheny citizens escort and under
the control of the police departments of
both cities. The army will encamp at
Homestead tonight and at McKeesport to-
morrow night. aa. g..

In the morning hour the senate passed
after Il warm controversy the senate bill
for the suppression of gambling in the Dis
trict eff Columbia, with an amendment pro
posed by Senator Allen prohibiting pool
selling on horse races.
The senate also considered briefly Il reso-
luton offered by Senator PETER for the re
peal of all laws which give the secretary
of the treasury authority to issue bonds,
and Senator PETER spoke in support of it.
Then the tariff bill was laid before the
senate, and Mr.. Allison concluded his
speech in opposition. His remarks We're
directed in particular against the substi
tuition of the ad valorem for the specific
system and against the tax on sugar. He
also opposed the increase on distilled liquor
and the tax on incomes, while at the same
time he delivered a strong attack against
the policy of Following in the footsteps
of England and of opening our markets to
that country" thus giving her the gold
with which to wage her battle against the
world and bimetallism.
At the conclusion of his speech Mr.. Mills
took the floor in defense of the ad valOrem
system of taxation and cOnfessedthat the
bill did not meet with his entire approval,
but it was always necessary to compro-
mise in legislation.

LEAVE THE OLD PARTIES CO.,
Gompers' Advice to "A Large Meeting
of WOrIkingmen.

st. Louis, June 12-About 800 work
ingmen gathered at the Grand opera
house tonight and listened to addresses
by prominent labor leaders.
Among them were Samuel Gompers,
of the Federation of Labor, who in his
address alluded to what he termed the
successful termination of the miners
troubles. He said in part:
This will have a good effect en- all
labor organizations. The movement
was called sedition by some of our
newspapers because they dare to ask
enough to keep them from stavr.ion.
Never in the history of our country
has there been a conference represent
ing 50 vast a body as mas raet m your
city these last two days. Take cou-
rage The opportunity for workers is
nearer today than ever before. Every
proposition that came before US was
fully discussed, and that whieh was
adopted is far-rea6hing in its influ-
ence. In a short time You VIII see a
movement which will not only surprise
our enemies, but even our most san
guine friends. Vote for our men.
Leave the old parties go; they lave
never done any good for the wage
Garner and they never will.

ST. Louis, June 1.-THE labor lead
ers holding a conference today agreed
that a conference of the representa-
tives of organized labor be held semi
annually, the first at Washington, on
February %. 1895.
At the afternoon session the remain
ing sections of the reports were adopt
ed, as follows:
Each organization entitled to repre-
sentation in the conference provided
the basis shall consist of three men for
each organization
The officers of future conferences
shall consist of a president, secretary,
treasurer and executive committee of
one from each organization to repre-
sent
For the purpose of preventing strife
and antagonism between labor organ
izations or any trade or calling, and
that in all matters of trade conflicts,
boycotts and trade libels, the union
particularly interested should have alb
solute authority and autonomy
Recognizing that corporations and
the moneyed class of the country are
dominating the legislation of the ma
ton, the state and municipalities, to
the detriment of the interests of the
toiling and wealth-producing millions,
and recognizing further that the
power of wealth has subordinated the
executive, judicial and military forces
to its own benefit, thus undermining
and endangering it's constitution and
tending to deprive our people of their
cherished liberties, we declare that
the working masses should throw off
the yoke of political partisanship and
vote Independently in order that repre-
sentatives of. the wealth-producer of
America may be fully represented in
making and executing our laws
These resolutions were adopted.
1t was decided to endorse congress
sional bill No. 5000, introduced by Con-
gresham Mcguire, of California 1t
provides for the abolition of involun-
tary servitude among sailors shipping
from American ports.
It was also decided that each organ
ization represented submit proceedings
of this convention to their respective
organizations for action and later to
report to provisional committee OF
three, empowered to publish the pro-
ceedings and arrange fer the next con-
ference to be held in Washington, D
c., Feb, %, 1895. Messrs. Sargent, OF
the Locomotive Firemen; Mcguire, OF
the Federation; and Hayes, of The K

CROCKER MAY CAUSE A CRASH.
Wants the Estate Drawn From the
Railway Pool.

San Francisco, June 12.-The Chron-
icle revives the story that George
Croker is causing trouble in Southern
Pacific railway circles and thar he has
positively demanded the privilege of
Withdrawing his share of the great
Croker estate from the Southern Paci-
fic pool. The Chronicle says young
Croker has made formal demand
upon the Crocker heirs whose inter
ests are managed by the Croker COM
pany, to withdraw every cent of his
money and his share of his father S
estate from the railroad. He wants to
have nothing to do with the transport
tation companies.
When Charles Croker died, the story
goes, his affairs were so arranged that
George Croker was not TO receive his
division of the estate for five years,
and then it was conditioned that young
George mus. cease his dissipation.
For five years the young man mas
led a quiet life and as result he has
received 100000 in the last few months.
This placed him in an independent posi-
ton, and now he is demanding what
he claims TO be his rights.
The Chronicle states that c. P. Hunt
ington's practical usurpation of all
power in the Pacific Improvement COM
pany has agitated Mrs Stanford as
well as George Croker. and that both
are determined to withdraw Their de-
mands for an accounting, it is said,
will be resisted by Huntington, VINO is
said TO have threatened that if they
