As a result ot a raid Mimlay three persons, were killed and fourteen wounded. Another attack this morning resulted less dis astrously, bombs dropped between two departing railroad trains failing to explode. General Hirschauer was appointed to take charge of the aerial defense of the city. He is an aeronautic expert and organized last year the aerial branch of the army service. A ntmiber of deputies met at the call of Deputy Denys Cochin to consider various means of rendering the city more secure from aeroplane attacks. The creation of aerial squadron stationed at Cardinal Point to bo al ways ready to clash after the air craft of the enemy as soon as they should be signalled approarhin. ; the city; the arming of fast monoplanes with quick firing guns and the telephon ing of warnings by residents ol the capital to the French aero club, which is now under military control, were among the suggestions discussed. Fin ally, M. Cochin sent a telegram to Bordeaux urging the immediate adopt ion of efficacious measures with the view of reassuring the people.
