Evidence points to the probability that the bombs were planted by anarchists according to a well laid plan. Two of the explosions occurred in the Consulate, but as the offices were closed for the night, no one was killed or injured, although the building was seriously damaged.
Fire broke out in the Ministry of Education Building fol- lowing the explosion there, but was extinguished in a short time. The Radio Station however, was damaged to such an extent that broadcasting will not take place for several days.
