that that demand is just. This is

BOMB THROWN At ROYAL COUPLE

A MARROW ESCAPE.

Himself.

Madrid, June 1.-Just as King AL
fonso and his English bride were near
ing the end of the progress to the royal
palace from the Church of San Jero-
nimo San Real, where they had been
married three hours previously, a bomb
narrowly missed ending their lives.
An official statement indicates the pos
sibility that two bombs were thrown,
one exploding in the air by striking
telegraph wire and the other falling
so close to the royal carriage that a
groom at the head of the wheel horses
was killed, as also we're the wheel
horses. At least sixteen persons were
killed and large number wounded.
Suspicion points to a Catalonian
named Manuel Duran as the leader of
the regicidal conspiracy, and he is In
prison awaiting examination. The
scene In the vicinity of the explosion
was horrible.
The queen tainted, but almost i'm
mediately recovered, and with King
Alfonso got out of their carriage and

Instead of continuing along the Gale
Mayor, the king took little by-street
to the Plaza de Oriente. from which he
entered the royal palace, the crowd
cheering him as he reached the square.
After he entered the palace he ex-
claimed: Il thank God for having pro-

to them that he could not raise their
wages without the consent OF the gov
