Another Attempt Made to Murder the
. President of France. ,
BOMB EXPLODED ‘Too LATE.
It Did Not Go 011‘ Until After the Intended
Victim Bad Passed — It Was a Very
Clumsy Affair Anyhow and' Bid
No Damage Whatever.
Paris, Aug. 19.—The departure of
President Faure on his visit to the czar
at St'. Petersburg today was marked by
a scene of the greatest excitement, ac-
companied by the circulation of the
wildest kind of rumors. After his de-
parture a bomb was exploded along the
route the president had followed, and
although no damage was done by it

land nobody was hurt, intense ex-
- ~g citement prevailed for a long time af-
zterward, and sensational reports were
circulated that those who exploded the
ibomb had intended an outrage of a
, more serious nature.
I The president received an ovation
.- from the public when he started, large
'- crowds of people lining the route from
gthe Elysee palace to the railroad sta-
: , tion and greeting the president with en-
thusiastic cries of “Vive la. Repub-
lique!" “Vive 1a Russie!" “Vive

:
PRESIDENT FAURE.
Faure!" etc. Ten minutes after the
- president’s departure, while the crowds
:were returning along the route, the
bomb was exploded at the corner of the
‘Boulevard Magenta and the Rue La—
, fayette, in front of the Restaurant Du—
The report caused a panic in the
gneighborhood, and all sorts of wild sto-
5 ries were circulated, based on the state-
ments attributed to anarchists, that
their next effort would be an attempt
upon the life of President Faure. Upon
investigation by the police, however, it
was found that the explosion had
_caused but little damage, and that no—
' body was hurt.
A Rather Harmless Bomb.
The liomb was of cylindrical form,
was covered with yellow paper, and ap-
pears to have contained a black sub-
stance, possiblycoarse gunpowdermixed
with large headed nails, similar to those
usually found in the roughlyvconstruct-
ed infernal machines used by the less
intelligent class of anarchists. Frag-
ments of the bomb were taken to the
prefecture of police, where they were
submitted to a thorough examination
by experts, who pronounced the bomb
to have been a comparatively harmless
affair. An official investigation was be-
gun later.
Later in the day the officials of the
prefecture of police announced that the
bomb had consisted of an iron tube
30 centimeters long and 5 centimeters
in diameter. It was placed in an
empty store close to the corner of the
Boulevard Magenta and the Rue La-
fayette. Some of the nailscontained
in it were thrown a few feet on to the
sidewalk. Scraps of paper were found
about the scene of the explosion in-
scribed “Vive la Liberte!” and “Vive la
Pologne!” apparently pointing to the fact
that the author of the explosion today
was the same person who caused the re—
cent explosions in the Bois de Boulogne
and on the Place de la Concorde on June
13 while President Faure was on his
way to Longchamps to witness the race
for the Grand Prix.
President Faure was accompanied on
his way to Russia by M. Hanotaux,
the minister of foreign affairs, and
Admiral Bcsnard, the minister of ma-
rine. The presidential party, according
to the official programme, will leave
Dunkerque'this afternoon on board the
French warship Pothuau, which will be
escorted to Russia by the French war-
ships Bruix and Surcouf, and will ar-
rive at Cronstadt on Monday morning
next, Aug. 23.
More Receptions to Come. ,
The president will be received by the
czar in the Cronstadt roads. The first
day of the visit will be devote to, his
reception at Cronstadt and at Peterhof,
_to the exchange of official visits, a ban-
quet at the Peterhof palace and a gala
performance at the Imperial theater.
On Tuesday, Aug. 24, the czar and his
guest will start for St. Petersburg. There
the president will be welcomed by the
municipality of St. Petersburg, and will
receive delegations from the municipali-
\ ties of the principal cities of the Russian
empire. He will also lay the corner-
stone of the new French hospital, and
in the evening will preside at a; banquet
at the French embassy in honor of the
czar.
On Wednesday, Aug. 25, occurs the
review at the Krasnoe-Selo camp and
on Thursday the review in Cronstadt
roads of the combined French and Rus-
sian squadrons, after' which the presi-
dent will sail for France. He should
reach Dunkerque on his return journey
on Tuesday, Aug. 31. '
President Faure takes with him 300
medals in geld and platinum, 80 medals
of silver gilt and 20 of dull gold—all
specially struck for presentation to the
Russian guard of honor and the ofl‘l-'
cials who will attend him during his
stay in Russia. '

Norwalk People are Talking
About it on every
Corner. '
I
It is sometimes an easy matter to fool
the public, but you can’t keep it up
very long. They are sure to find you
out; and every time'a man is fooled an-
other skeptic is made. Skepticism is
allowable when reading in\ a home
newspaper about some incident occur-
ring in San Francisco or Iowa, but the
c1rcumstances are entirely difl’erent
when it refers to some one right here
at home, friends and neighbors, people
you'know, whom you can see, and with
whom you can talk it over. This is
the kind of evidence at the back of
Doan’s Kidney Pills—home statements
by home people, and the astonishing
local work they have been doing, has
caused more talk among our citizens
than the doings of any other modern
wonder. Read the following:
Mr. C. A. Owens, N o. 190 Main street
isa painter and a paper hanger by
trade. Like the majority of men who
follow this occupation he is troubled
with disordered kidneys. The requis-
ites to his calling benzine, turpentine,
and other dryers excite and inflame
those organs and late in the fall he
found himself suffering from a. return
of the old complaint. Mrs. Owens ever
mindful of her husband’s welfare, pro-
cured for him a box of Doan’s Kidney
Pills at Hale’s drug store and he used
them. Mrs. Owens says, “Myhusband
has been greatly benefited by the use
of Doan’s Kidney Pills: Constant
working in white lead and mixing paint
has brought on kidney trouble and a
severe headache. Relief in any form
is always welcome and we are pleased
to recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills for
what they have done.

dealers, price 50 cents. Mailed by Fos-
ter Milburn Conn-Buffalo, N. Y., sole

Remember the name, Doan’s and

And now the individual who was
wont-to talk glibly of the days of ‘49
hasn'ta word to say as the tales of
riches in the Klondike are spread
abroad.

T. VJilson (II‘OVc up to police headquar-
ters today. in a cab in company with his
counsel, De‘ Lancey Nicoll. Mr. Wilson
went in to See Albert V. Sugden, who
was formerly a valet in the service of
the Wilson family and who is under ar—
rest for having stolen money and jew—
elry of the value of about $3,000 on the
night of June 23 from Mr. Wilson’s
house. Sugden was identified by Mr.
Wilson, and after a short conference
with Acting Inspector O'Brien Mr. Wil-
son drove away again.
While commenting upon the case to-
day, O’Brien intimated that the identity~
of the anonymous writer of the scan-
dalous letters anent the marriage of
Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., and, Miss
Grace Wilson would soon be known.
The specimens of Sugden’s handwriting
found in his possession were compared
with facsimiles of the scurrilous letters
and the examination will be conducted
further by an expert in handwriting.
De Lancey Nicoll said that, he did not
think that Sugden was the author of
the communications.
Sugden has confessed the theft of the
money and jewels. He says that he
took the valuables to make himself
even for the suit that he brought
against Mr. Wilson for $1,030. Of this
sum Sugden asserted that 'Mr. Wilson
owed him $1,000 which was promised
as a reward for discovering the 'mys-
terious letter writer.
Sugden was arraigned in the Tombs
police court today. He was remanded
until tomorrow afternoon, when the ex-__
amination is to take place, Mr. Wilson
navmg arranged to appear at that time.
