A:seciated Press Cable to The Eye.i,s
Times.
Madrid, June General Weyler
was seriously wounded by the bomb
explosion yesterday. Five of the
wounded are dying. The magnitude
OF the attempt on the lives Of King
Alfonso and Queen Victoria increases.
The number of killed is now given at
twenty and the wounded at sixty. Dur
ing the night, thirty arrests were made
but the person who actually threw the
bomb is apparently still at large. The
ministery has decided to continue the
fetes for the purpose Of allaying pub
lie apprehension.
The jeweled decoration worn by
King Alfonso was shattered by
splinter of a bomb. Queen Victoria is
irreconcilable, declaring that she is
responsible for many persons being
killed.
Two Bombs Thrown.
Officials here are beginning to be-
lieve that two bombs were thrown at
the king and queen yesterday and that
the missiles exploded simultaneously
with only one vivid crash. The scene
which followed was like one witnessed
on a battlefield. Corpses, pools of
hlOod and yvrooLo rro ,ro,, .t...-
the ground. The front of the house,
No. IS Mayor street, before which the
explosion occurred. was covered with
holes and blood dripped from the cur
tains of a window on the first floor.
Arrests Are Made.
In the apartment of the duke of
Alumeda, Marchioness Tolosa and her
daughter were killed. One body was
jammed in the balcony railing and was
removed with difficulty No. SO Mayor
and all nearby houses were at once
surrounded by the police who pre-
vented ingress or egress, until they
had been thoroughly searched. A
tenant on the third floor and a young
man who was leaving the house were
among those arrested The crowd
tried to lynch the prisoners and the
police only prevented it by charging
them.
The marquois of Tolosa. ignorant of
the death of his wife, was one of those
who arrived and the guards at first
refused to admit him. Finally, how
ever, he was allowed to enter and a
heartrending scene followed.
The coolness of the young king was
marvellous. On reaching the palace
after the explosion, he sent adjutants
to assist the wounded and later sent
officers among the families of the VIC
Tins, doing everything possible to con-
dole with and assist the sufferers.
Queen Christina, the prince and
princess of Wales and Archduke and
Archduchess Francis Ferdinand of
Austria, had already reached the pal
ace and were awaiting for the king
and queen with the infanta. When
some time elapsed without the royal
coach appearing, the prince of Wales
and Infanta Theresa, who stood wait
ing at the palace entrance, became
deeply anxious and they were more
disturbed when they saw the empty
coach arrive with its bloody horses.
But the royal family were finally re-
lieved when they saw the king and
queen arrive. Queen Christiana en-
braced them and uttered her deep
thankfulness at their escape. 1t is as
serted that letters were received in
government quarters last night sayin.
that this would not be the last attempt
as the band of conspirators had de-
clared their intention of keeping it up.
Confessed to Crime.
London, June IA dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph company from
Madrid today says the bomb thrower
has been arrested. that he is confined
in the Medic Dio police station and he
has confessed and supplied the details
Of the outrage.
