minister Abbey.

LONDON, June l1.-An attempt to
blow up the coronation chair which has
been in Westminster Abbey since 1896

ward s chair, out of respect to Edward
the Confessor, near whose shrine it
stands, was made by order of King Ed
ward |, to hold the coronation stone
OF destiny on which the ancient Scottish
Kings used to sit when they were
crowned. 1t was captured bv Edward
! from the Scotch. The damage caused
to the chair by today S explosion was
slight. The explosive was placed be
meath it. but its effect seemed not to
reach the chair itself, which is of solid
oak, covered with gilt. The famous
old stone was badly Clipped. The po-
lice quickly took possession of the alb
bey after the outrage. The explosion
occurred while Reginal McKenna was
talking on the suffragette question in
the House of Commons. The detona-
tion was plainly heard in the parlia-
ment house.
