PARIS. April 28. With tho slay
ing of Jules Bonnet, "tho demon
chauffeur" of the "phantom death
car," and Dubois, tho world famed
anarchist, by police and detectives
here, tho reign of terror of tho no
torious automobile bandits In and
about Paris Is believed today to bo
at an end.
Tho outlaws, who had committed
a series of daring crimes extending
over a period of six months and In
variably eluded the police, several
times after hand-to-hand fights, wero
run to earth In a small garage at
Choisy Lerol, on the outskirts of
Paris, where they wero killed after
their lair had been wrecked by Jyn
amlte.
lO.OOO Watch Battle.
Hundreds ot policemen and armed
citizens surrounded the building, be
ing repeatedly driven back by a fu
sillade from a small window, white
10.000 persons watched from out
side the danger zone. Finally a cart
was rigged with protecting- mattress
es and a venturesome officer applied
two charges of dynamite to ono cor
ner of the garage. When tho build
ing was shattered In clouds of smoke
the police rushed In over the wreck
age. As they entered a man arose
from the ruins of an automobile ton
neau and fired. It was Dubois and
he was riddled with bullets before
any ot bis shots could take effect.
Two mattresses moved sllghtl,
and Bonnet raised to tire. He was
shot down before he could pull the
trigger and taken out alive and
cursing.
Most Feared of llamlitfl.
The thousands who watched the
fight rushed the police with cries:
"Death to Bonnet," and attempted to
tear tho bandit to pieces. He was
struck several times before the po
lice could rescue him. Bonnot died
on tho way to the hospital.
Bonnet was the most feared and
hated of alt the bandits. He drove
tho cars which the outlaws used In
committing their crimes and tbolr
frequent escapes were due to his
skill and daring at the wheol.
Wlillo tho dynamite cart was being
drawn up to the garage tho great
crowd remained so silent that be
tween the scattered shots fired by
tho bandits the click ot tho moving
picture machines could bo plainly
heard, us tho oporators calmly
turned away, so as not to miss a
slnglo featuro of tho drama of death
being enacted boforo them. Tho
operators woro on tho ground ns
soon as tho detectives arrived by
automobllo from Pnrls and secured
films showing overy detail of tho
battlo, dynamiting and capturo ot
Bonnet allvo.
Moving Pictures Taken.
Tho motion plcturo men operated
in a rain ot bullets during tho most
interesting part of tho gun fight.
After tho capturo they remained to
get pictures of over 200,00 pcoplo
who visited tho scono ot battle dur
