LONDON, March 9th, A morning paper prb ishes an interview with Malato, the anarchist leader, who recently returned from Sicily.
Malato declares that the troubles in Sidly were the outcome of distress among the la- babitants rather than the result of anarchistic teachings. The anarchis's tried hard to foment a general revolt, but failed. Malato did not believe that civil war was likely to happen la Italy, yet he would not be surprised if Thursday's outrage in Rome proved the beginning of a long series of almallar outrages.

The prisoners made conflicting explanations, The min says he was not in the room at the time of the explosion and disclaimed all knowledge of the machine.
Rout, March gib. One of the men wounded by the explosion yesterday died this morning. The police are convinced that the intention was to blow up the Chamber of Deruiles because it was discussing the question of the purishment of the leaders of the disturbance in Sicily, and that it was pre- vented by the fortunate circumstance of an early adj urnment because Premier Crispi had a cold and could not answer the questions, notice of which had been given.
It appears the bamb was kidden in a high hat. Two more of the wounded are much wene to-day,
