HI BOUND RAIL MAGNATES ARE INDICTED THE SHIPS CARRIED SEVERAL PASSENGERS By Associated Press. . i-k ELHl. India, Dec. 23. Baron U Hardinge, viceroy of India, was wounded and an attendant of his killed by a bomb hurled at the viceroy from a housetop as he was entering tho new capital, in state to day. The thrower s attempt to kill Lord Hardinge came within a hair's breadth of being successful. The viceroy was making an entry in state into- Delhi as the last of the ceremonies in connection with the 'transfer of the capital from Calcutta to Delhi. The transfer was made in October last but Baron Hardinge' was not to take formal possession of his T.pv auarters until today. . A large Kathering of troops, officials and pun jab chiefs was present to welcome the viceroy's party. Its splendid elephant procession .had Just left the railway station, passing through Chandai Chowk, when the bomb was thrown. It was hurled by a man standing on u house top and it struck the how dali or -basket of the elephant In which Baron and Lady Hardinge were riding. The attendant, holding a large parasol over the vice regal pair, was Instantly killed as the. bomb ex ploded. Lord Hardinge was wounded in the shoulder but how seriously could not In- determined In the confusion which followed the bomb throwing. He was hurriedly removed to a hospital.

Baron Hardinge on arrival at the - h..iiinl was examined by the eur peons.: They found that the wound in liis shoulder was only a slight one. IjiiIv Hardinge suffered severely from stock. The viceroy's parasol bearer i,,i i,in killed outright and another attendant seriously wounded by frag ments of the bomb. Ceremonies io On. The ceremonies were Interrupted f..r .nlv a short period. Sir Guy Fleetwood Wilson, financial member of the council of the governor gen eral of India, took the viceroy's place In the procession, 'which then pro ceeded on Its way through the new imiu.rini citv to the durbar camp, where a great number of rajahs and oilier Indian chieftains were gatnerea Sir Guy then took up his position in front of the vice-regal' dais and read aloud a despatch from Baron mra Inge Baying thaj he was only slightly injured. The reading of the message was received with prolonged cheer- luff. The attempt on Baron Hardlnge's life aroused feelings of intense Indig nation both among the natives and foreigners for Baron Hardinge is one or the most popular viceroys that hap ruled in India. For a long period there had been a lull in the native agitation in India which at various times led to assassinations of high officials. The attack on Baron Hard ing by a fanatic therefore came with greater unexpectedness. Only a short time ago the viceroy himself wrote to the Indln offlcd In London saying that the country was very quiet and that the prospects of the official entry Into Iielhl were most favorable. The bomb was thrown as the great procession was passing through the Chandai Chowk, a long, narrow typi cal Oriental street containing many Fiores. The houses are mostly one story buildings but some of them r'se to the height of two stories. A line of street cars runs the whole length of the Chandai Chowk but owing to Iho Importance of the day business has been suspended. The viceroy's elennant was an enormous animal Tho driver sat between his ears guld Ing him in the usual native way by IHtmlnir him nn the forehead with a steel spike. Behind the driver was the great howdah. a box-like construction llxed on the elephant's saddle. The howdah was covered with Imperial purple draolngs decorated with gold lace nnd tamels. In it were seated the !cernv unA vlcerlnn and at their backs Wood n native attendant hold Ing over tholr heads the great parasol which Indicates the royal dignity. Itomh llnrnt With Great Force ' The w. .iii.l. ho assassin when he threw the bomb, was only a few feet from the viceroy and vlcerine. The bomb burst with terrific force. Tho nailve standing behind the viceroy nnd vlcerine holding the imperial urn brella was blown from his position to the ground and Instantly killed while tho driver sitting In front of the how . dah was wounded In eight places. The en-aim of Baron and Lady Har dlnge was well nigh miraculous. The missile fell only a foot or more from Its target.' Severs I Artx-wtn MHile. The great procession ut once came to a standstill and a crowd of officials rushed up and found the viceroy bleeding and pale, while the vlcerlno was terribly shaken.
