Bavssris, Aug. 13.—Great excitement pre- vails today in Ostend over agfynamite outrage that has resulted in throe persons being fatally injuréd and several seriously. Ostend is the favorite summer resort for the Belgian aristocracy. ‘The King of the has a summer residence and visits the baths, and other summer attractions include nobility whose leading families make Ostend their favor- ite resort on the western shores of Euroj The old Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany also was example many noble German f make Ostend their summer habitation. At present Ostend is thronged with visitors. One of the most aristocratic resorts is the Cafe du Prince, called after the late Prince Consort of England, and much frequented by English sojourners as well as by Russians and Germans, ‘oday, while a number of people were in the | jynamite eartridge exploded under one of the windows. The force of the explosion was terrific. The cafe was wrecked, the win- down shattered, the tables broken and plates and glasses smashed and hurled about the room. in the cafe were wounded Several persone by the flying missiles and three were fotally injured, & HORRIBLE SPECTACLE. ‘The spectacle was the most horrible ever seen in Ostend. People came running out from the cafe, their faces streaming with blood, adding to the dismay and terror of the fashionable throng that had gathered at the sound of the explosion. Police rushed in and found several. per- sons lying in the wreck with serions wounds, one of them unconscious and another almost dead, owing to the copious flow of blood from a gash in his temple. The wounded were at ‘ence conveyed to the hospital or their stopping places and efforts were made to ascertain who ‘was guilty of the crime. ‘There was very little left of the dynamite cartridge, but the police were. able to locate where {t had been placed. So far, however, they are without any reliable clue as to the criminal, ‘Two persons of | suspicious. ep- arrived in Ostend from Paris In the early part of the week and were by the police, who them of being thieves or swindlers, ‘They paid their way, and as they did nothing to justify arrest they were not molested. They are now missing.
