Supposed Anarchists Send Baron Roths-
child an Internal Machine.
PARIS, Aug. ga serious attempt
has been made upon the life of Baron
Alphonse D'Rothschild. A large and
heavy envelope was received at the
bank addressed to the baron and was
opened by M. Zadkovitz, the confiden-
tial clerk Of the well-known banker.
just as the clerk opened the envelope
it exploded with great force, tearing
his right eye out and blowing off some
OF his fingers. The remains of the
strange envelope was nothing more
than an internal machine. The police
seem to be unanimous that the out
rage was the work of Anarchists.
They are of the opinion that the con-
struction of the internal machine and
the material employed resemble in
many res tcts those sent to the French
deputies n 1891, in boxes made to APP
pear like packages of books The
police are using every effort to dis
cover where the letter was posted.

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 27-United
States Judge Caldwell talked about
his presidential boom to-day in man
ner which clearly indicates that he
is pleased with the gossip which has
been going the rounds. "The question

sis matter of individual preference
with the voters. The choice depends
upon them, and while have heard my
name used in that connection, 1 have
not considered it at all seriously, and
doubt If anyone has,"
Would you accept the nomination."
"That is question prefer not to
answer. There is no use graphing
with question before it arises. I
have had nothing whatever to do with
any talk connecting my name with the
nomination. | am not candidate"
Judge Caldwell is an ardent free
silver advocate and he never neglects
an opportunity to express himself. 81
am for the free coinage of silver, said
he, without any preference to an in
ternational agreement. The countries
of Europe would never consent to the
free use Of silver, and it is not worth
while wasting time with them. We
are able to take care of ourselves, and
if we are not it would be a good plan
to annex our country to Canada.
