No Move For Peace.

Washington. June while the
president has discussed informally
the subject of peace negotiations with
members of his cabinet and with
some representatives of the foreign
governments at this capital. and. In
the near future. probably will take
up the matter with others, it can be
said authoritatively that no definite
steps looking towards peace have yet
been taken by this government. That
such steps may be taken is regarded
as quite likely, but whatever action
may be taken will depend upon in
formation not yet at hand.
That a concerted movement on the
part of several important powers, in
Guiding the United States, to bring
about a cessation of hostilities In the
far east may be made very soon Is
reasonably certain. The result OF
such an effort is quite another mat
ter II Is regarded as too soon yet, at
ter the great naval battle, for Rus
STA to determine upon a definite
course of action. AT least until the
st. Petersburg government shall
have indicated what its desires may
be. the probabilities are regarded as
favorable only to an informal dis
cussion OF peace.

Paris, June Am anarchists
threw bomb at the royal carriage
containing King Alfonso and Presi-
dent Loubet as they were leaving
the opera after gala performance.
The bomb exploded without either
lnjuring the president or the king.
Soldiers belonging to the escort
we're wounded.
A large number of arrests were
made, including the person who is
believed to have thrown the bomb
and three persons suspected of COM
plicity in the plot, as the latter were
seen under the archway of the Lou

minutes before the explosion occur

MED by distinguished party of Of
ficias and diplomats attended a gala
performance of the opera where the
greatest enthusiasm prevailed. After
the performance the party entered
carriages and proceeded. Just a few
yards before reaching the Rue Ri
voli a man sprang forward with his
arm raised in the air and before the
Gordon of police could prevent him,
without uttering a word, threw the
projectile in the direction of the car
riage. The police Immediately rush
ed toward him. At that moment a
deafening explosion occurred. Cries
from the crowd were heard and a
scene of intense excitement began,
the crowd surging to and fro. Sol
diers were seen to fall, but as the
flash from the bomb died out 1t was
observed that the king and president
had not been struck and their car
rlage proceeded on its way.
The bomb passed over the royal
carriage and struck the shoulder of
a cuirassier, then fell to the ground,
where 1t exploded, the fragments
striking the horses of soldiers, caus-
ing them to bolt and throw their rid
ers. Fragments of the bomb also
struck five persons. One of the hors-
es of the escort was killed outright
and six others lay about MANNED and
bleeding.
The force of the explosion was ter
rifle and extinguished the electric
lights, adding darkness to the scene
of confusion. Women and children
screamed and a panic was for time
threatened in the vast throng until
the police succeeded in restoring or
der. Meantime the remainder of the
scort to the royal carriage had clos
ed round the vehicle. which disap-
peared under the archway of the
Louvre.
The king sitting beside the pres
ident, was pale but apparently calm,
Just before the carriage disappeared
