Sixteen of the Party Were Killed Outright?Royal Carriage Splintered Madrid, May 31.?The public rejoicings over the marriage of King Alfonso and Princess Victoria had a terribly dramatic sequel at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon, when a bomb thrown from an upper window exploded with deadly effect near the coach occupied by the king and queen. Providentially King Alfonso and Queen Victoria es[ caped by an electric wire deflecting | the bomb, but at least 16 persons, most of them being of the personal and military escort and the others spectators, were killed. Many others were injured. One royal groom, who was leading a horse drawing the coach carrying the king and queen was killed. Several of those killed were standing on the balcony of the house from which the bomb was thrown. The explosion occurred just as the royal couple were about to enter the palace. The procession had just passed through Mayor street and was about to turn into the Esplanade leading to the palace, when an explosion shook the buildings in the vicinity, stunning a large number of people and throwing the cortege into inextricable confusion. The royal coach was brought to a sudden stop by the shock, officers and soldiers of the escort falling to the ground about the equerry and horses that had been killed. The screams of the terrified multitude mingled with the groans of the dying. It was immediately seen that the royal coach was intact except as it had been damaged by flying splinters. King Alfonso immediately alighted and assisted Queen Victoria out of the carriage. They then entered another coach and were driven swiftly to the palace. All this happened so quickly that people away from the immediate vicinity were not aware of the tragedy that had been enacted and continued to acclaim their sovereigns. Soon, however, there appeared the empty royal coach with two horses missing and the others spattered with blood, several of them bleeding from wounds. The grooms and drivers looked deathly pale in their spangled uniforms. Then came a boy shouting that the bomb had been thrown at the king. The appearance of the king and queen in a coach brought out delirious ovations as the fact was recognized that the sovereigns had been spared. In the meantime the scene of the tragedy presented a horrible spectacle with dead men and horses lying about, literally torn to pieces. Intense excitement prevailed, the mob invading the streets while the forces of the guards sought to maintain order and block the approaching streets. The bodies were wrapped up in blankets j and removed on litters, while the j wounded were carried to hospitals in ambulances. The pavement was covered with blood, and the upper stories of the buildings nearest were spattered with it. The place from which the bomb was thrown is a boarding house. The chamber from which the missle was hurled was taken May 22 by a man from Barcelona giving the name of i Moral. When the police surrounded the house the man attempted to flee but was captured. Another man escaped over the roofs of the houses. According to an official statement it is not known whether one or more bombs were thrown. Frederick W. Whitridge, the Ameriea sneeial envov. wftnt, to the roval palace, where he was assured that the king and queen were reasonably tranquil considering the circumstances. Mr. Whitridge also called at the foreign office and on behalf of the United States expressed profound sympathy with the Spanish sovereigns and people. Will Cure Consumption. A. A.

Pickens, May 31.?A gloom was cast over the town of Pickens when it heard the news that their beloved citizen, John Ferguson, who lives near town was gored by a Guernsey bull. He had just finished feeding, when the^bull attacked him and knocked him down and gored him to death. His wife, Mrs. Hattie Ferguson, heard him cry out. She was sick in bed, but she jumped up and ran to the piazza. John Simpson, a colored man who was working for Mr. Ferguson heard him and also saw the bull goring Mr. Ferguson. He secured a pitchfork and fought the animal away. Earl Stephenson, another one V?or*^a TTrV> A TTT O C UI IUjL. i'Cigusun o iiaiiUD) nuu nuo near, ran up and pulled Mr. Ferguson's head out from under the barn. The animal crushed his skull and pushed his head under the barn. He was carried into the house and died a few minutes afterwards. He never spoke after he was hurt. Mr. Ferguson was a man much beloved by all people who knew him. He was a prosperous and progressive farmer and had an ideal homestead near town. He was 65 years of age and at one time was one of the larI gest merchants in South Carolina. He did business at Greenville, and sold goods over the entire upper Piedmont section, but several years ago closed out his business and retired to his old family home in Pickens county,where he continued to live until his untimely death. He was devoted to farming and paid particular attention to raising blooded cattle, and among his most valuable animals was the thoroughbred bull. His farm, comprising 1,000 acres includes the granite spur known as Glassy mountain, and has been in the Ferguson family since the Revolutionary war. Following" the Flag.
