VENICE B0MBARDED
BY ENEMY A|RMEN
One Person Is Killed, But All
Historical Buildings Es-
cape Injury.

VENICE, June 8, via Paris
June o.-One person was killed
and several were wounded BY
bombs dropped this morning from
an Austrian aeroplane, which
flew over the city.
The property damage was moi
heavy and no historic buildings
suffered.
F.ocked to st. Marks
When the hostile aircraft was sighted
the residents OF the city f1ocked to st
Marks Square
Apparently they were not concerned
about their personal safety, but were
chiefly concerned lest damage be done the
famous BasIlica. the rebuilt Campanile
and the Palace of the Doges. No bombs
fell in this district, however.
A Dozen Bombs Dropped.
Later 1t was seen that there were
two aeroplanes together. Their pres.
ence was signaled promptly, and they
at once became the object of con-
centrated fire from the anti-airshiI
guns stationed around Venice. There
was a heavy fire. and one Of the ma
chimes gave up the, attack and disap-
peared in an easterly direction. 1t is
believed that it was damaged.
The other threw down about one
dozen bombs, aimed principally at the
airship station at Campaltone. None
Of them struck the hangar, but here
it was that occurred the only fatality
the victim being a corporal of engi-
neers. Other bombs fell in the canal
and damaged a steamboat which plies
in the Grand canal. The windows OF
the Hotel Monaco were broken by one
missile, while another crashed through
a roof and fell into a bed and did not
explode.
In the meantime the fire directed
against this aeroplane was increasing
and it finally turned in the direction
of the sea and disappeared.
