DEADLY BDMB
WRECKS BRIDGE
ANARCHISTS ACTIVE IN PARIS
AND ELSEWHERE
Whole City Is Excited and Many
Residents Prepare to Leave
at the Earliest oppor-
tunity
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PARIS, April 2S.-The government
has completed preparations for dealing
with the May day situation and Is
confident that the day will pass with
out serious disorder, but at the same
time the public, which is not in the
least reassured by the elaborate mill
tary concentration, is showing great
uneasiness.
This has been accentuated by the ex-
plosion of a bomb Friday night under
the important railroad bridge at Arr
genteuil in the suburb of Paris, which
links the capital with Havre, and by
an attempt this evening by a band Of
hundred striking jewelers. to pene-
trate the populous center of the Palace
de L'Opera for the purpose of making
q demonstration before the great
jewelry establishments in the Rue de
La Paix.
Public Depressed
The activity of the police in making
more search and seizures, although de-
signed to insure the safety, also has
had the effect of increasing public ap-
prehenson, many persons believing
that extraordinary efforts indicate the
seriousness of the situation.
Government. military and police
officials give the most positive sassur-
ances that order will be maintained
and the calmer heads accept these
statements, but the nervous element
of the city is hastily preparing for
eventualities, some persons leaving
town and taking their vallables with
them and others laying in stores for an
emergency.
The scenes at the great supply stores
are unprecedented, hundreds of per-
sons invading them and clamoring for
urgency supplies.
Unrest Increased by Rumors
The sensational press increases the
unrest by publishing alarming reports
of anarchist designs, while the serious
press gives prominence to the military
concentration and police plans, all of
which leads the public to apprehend
that something is about to occur.
The explosion of the bomb under the
Argenteuil bridge is the first overt act
in what the revolutionaries term "di-
rect action"
The bridge is massive structure
crossing the Seine six miles outside the
st. Lare station, and hundreds Of trains
cross it daily. The military reinforce
ments that have been brought to Paris
crossed the river on this bridge.
The bomb used was cylindrical in
shape, with a slow fuse.
The deafening explosion was heard
for five miles,
1t shattered windows in Argenteuil
and awakened the sleeping town.
The railroad was torn up and the
signal ON the bridge was smashed, but
the solidity of the structure resisted
the force of the explosion.
Although there is no clue to the per-
petrator of the explosion, the police
have pronounced it as having been an
anarchist attack and connect it with
warnings that have been received of
other similar attempts, and accordingly
rigorous orders were Immediately is
sued for detachments of military en-
gineers to guard all the bridges and
tunnels of the Western railway sys-
TEN contiguous to Paris.

HENRY ROBERTS,
"A DESPERATE CHANGE" !"

The incidents upon which "A Des- perate Chance" the drawing card al Polls tomorrow afternoon and even- ing is built, and which occurred few years ago in the vicinity of Pittsburg. shocked the entire civilized world. The Riddle brothers were notorious thieves. One night they forced an en- trance into grocery store in Pittsburg and the proprietor. in defending his property, lost his life. An officer was killed in attempting to arrest the out laws. Capture followed swiftly. and the Riddles were sentenced to death and confined in the Pittsburg jail. One of the boys was possessed Of hyp- notic power over women. He used this on the wife of the prison warden, and through her obtained weapons and the means of escape. Gaining the out side after a battle with the guards, a sleigh was in waiting to assist them in their flight. The woman accom- panied them in the midst of a snow storm. It took the officers but short time to win running battle of bullets. during which the Riddles were mortal ly shot. The woman also was serious ly wounded and, for a time, her life hung in the balance. Prices are p, 35 and % cents; matinee 9 cents. Tele- phone 116-2.

VAUDEVILLE.

The old but always popular Poet and Peasant" was the hit of the pro gram last night at Jacques, being fen- dered with the most spontaneous en- thusiasm and artistic repression in the proper passages. and the crescendo movements were played with grace and power. The sextette from Lucia" and the Star Spangled Banner" were also rapturously received. and the clos ing number was cheered to the echo. Gardner and vincent's skit. Winning a Queen" which has been seen here before. scored decisively last evening. and the act goes with more dash and effectiveness than ever. The lines have been frightened up considerably and the turn Is laugh maker of the most insistent character. Miss Rae Cox. a southern girl. with songs and stories. made an instantaneous hit on account of her personality and her beautiful dancing. Her rendition of Nobody" makes Ned Yves look like nursery rhyme. and her few little bits of terpsiehorean effort are things of ioy to watch because they are sim ple. unaffected and un-chorus Ike. Miss Cox should put the Lenten good resolutions fin jeopardy. Gilday and Fox are a pair of good Hebrew paro- dlsts of familiar type. and Wood aad Berry do q dancing and singing stunt that pleases. Ben Myers opens the show with . first class act. aud the Five ROmanos contribute an eccentric dancing meIange that Is new and at tractive- The pictures are as always. well worth staying to see.

DOCTOR VERSUS PRAYER.

 Female Follower of Dowie Forced to
 Have Medical Attendance.
 CHICAGO, March 6.-The city health department is justified in forcibly in- terfering in cases of extreme sickness where the services of physician are refused by relatives of the invalid, ac- cording to an opinion rendered by Cor poration Counsel Lewis.
 Since the advent of John Alexander Dowie in Chicago many cases of this nature have been brought to the notice of the city authorities, but no definite action has ever been taken until the present time, when prayer instead of medicine or surgery was used in the treatment of Mrs. Ella Turner, be- liever in Dowie's teachings.
 The woman had been suffering for over twenty-folr hours, and her life was in imminent pel1 as her condi- ton called for an immediate operation. Instead of calling physician the wo- mans husband and relatives appealed to Oyerseer yollva of Zion City. who sent one of his deacons to pray for the patient
 The woman's cries of pain attracted a neighbor, who reported the case to the police The police at once advised the health department Health Com missioner Charles J. Whalen secured from Corporation Counsel Lewis an opinion that the health department was justified in interfering in such an extreme case and sent physician to attend the woman, and her suffering was stopped.

 WASHINGTON, March 6. = United States Senator Clark of Montana won the case against him in the supreme court of the United States in which the government sought to have cancelled patents to 11.40O acres of public lands ill Montana, which were alleged to have been fraudulently secured. The opin- ion in the case was delivered by Jus tice Holmes and upheld the decision of the circuit court of appeals for the Ninth circuit. Justices Harlan and Brown dissented
 The government charged that Clark was not a bona fide purchaser, but the courts below, including the court of appeals. took the contrary view, hold ing that the issuance of patents had the effect of converting his purchase of an equity into purchase of title. The printed record in the case covered 1000 pages.

Pr0posal From Cxar's Delegates Takes j Conference by Surprise - Britain, Spain and Portugal Support

Spain and Portugal Support
 the Arrangement.
 ALGECIRAS, Spain, March 6.-The session of the conference on Moroccan reforms was marked by an unexpected and important move on the part of the Russian delegates, who laid before the conference long documentary exposi- ion of the police question.
 The statement, which minutely goes over the existing situation in Morocco and analyses the position of the various powers, concludes with an argument for the proposition that France and Spain are the most fit to be intrusted with the task of controlling the police force which is about to be created.
 The British, Spanish and Portuguese delegates expressed their concurrence with the Russian views. Italy, how ever, though inclined to favor the scheme, reserved final approval. Count von Tattenbach, the junior German delegate; Henry White, the chief of the American delegation, and the delegates of the several neutral powers did not express their views.
 Discussion of definite police propos- als was postponed until Thursday, while the bank project will be argued tomorrow.
 The French and British delegates to the conference regard the expressions from the Mediterranean powers as like ly to exert great influence on the final vote of the neutrals relative to the po- licing of Morocco.
 The Moroccan crisis is on the verge of solution. it is said, on the basis of a compromise whereby France yields on the bank question in return for Ger many's yielding on the question of po- lice.
 King Edwards visit to Paris is di- rectly connected with the impending settlement. His recent overtures for reconciliation with the kaiser were the prelude to the role which the Brit ish monarch is now playing as peace maker.
