BOMB EXPLODED.
Presidents Departure and Arrival at France
Marked with Attempts to Assassinate.

President Faure landed at Dunkirk
Tuesday from the cruiser Pothuau on
his return from his visit to Russia. At
municipal banquet in his honor he
said: by loyalty. by wisdom and poll
teal instinct our democracy has res
tored France to her rightful place
among nations, has reaped the affec-
tions of another people and has found
ed, on the mutual aim of peace, the in
innate union of the two great nations.
which constitutes one of the greatest
events of the end of the present CEN
tury." The president arrived in Paris
at O'Clock and proceeded to the Ely
see palace. Ten minutes after the pre-
sident had passed the Madeleine. a
bomb was exploded inside the raiings
around the church. Nobody was in
tured by the explosion, but the affair,
Following so closely upon others of q
similar nature, caused the greatest eX-
citement. The fragments of the bomb
resemble those in the Bois de Bouogne
on June IL last. and on the Place de la
Concorde on June 16 last. IL consisted
of an iron tube filled with an explosive
and loaded with nails. At the prefec-
ture of police the bomb explosion is not
attributed to anarchists, but is believed
to be the work of the lunatic who was
responsible for previous similar affairs.
1t will be remembered that when the
president left Paris for Russia, 10 days
ago. similar explosion occurred n few
minutes after he had passed n street
corner. At night band of 100 persons
with flags flying. left the opera and
proceeded in the direction of the Ely
see. shouting Down with Emperor
William" The police stopped the pro-
cession after scufile. Two of the lea
ders were arrested.
