MET CARNOT’S FATE.
An Editor Falls a Victim to an Anarchist's Knife in Leghorn. Leghorn, July 3. —A crime somewhat resembling' the murdering of President Carnot was committed in this city Sunday. As Sig. Bandi, director of the Gazetta Livornesse, was entering his carriage at 8 o’clock in the morning he was set upon by a man who, it was subsequently learned, was an anarchist, who drew a knife and stabbed him in the abdomen. Sig. Bandi was at once attended by physicians, who decided that the only hope of saving his life was to perform the operation of laparotomy. This was done, but Sig. Bandi died a short time afterward. Prime Minister Crispi was questioned in the chamber of deputies in regard to the murder. He said that Sig. Bandi had been cCabbed and killed by an anarchist owing to the articles that had appeared in his paper against anarchism. The murder of Bandi has caused a great sensation throughout Italy and the feeling against the anarchists has been greatly intensified. The blow delivered by the assassin caused the dagger to penetrate the liver, and the similarity of the wound to that which killed M. Carnot was remarked upon by the victim shortly before his death. As yet the murderer has not been captured.
