M. pE WirTeE., Russian minister of finance, and perhaps the most influential man in the empire, except the ‘czar himself, was fifteen years ago only a station master in a village on the railroad between Kleff and Odessa.. He at that time disobeyed an order. relating to the forwarding of troops to Bulgaria, and was able to prove to his superiors that he had acted properly in so doing. This attracted the attention of the president of the road, M. Wychngradski, who.upon becoming minister of finance, took the young station master with him to St. Petersburg.

THE death of Lord Chief Justice Coleridge a few days ago makes a peer " of his oldest son and heir and probably ends what would otherwise be a successful professional career. Mr. Bernard Coleridge is a rising lawyer with an excellent practice, which he will now be compelled to abandon to become a member of the house of lords. The income of his late father’s estate is said to be less than $lO,OOO a year, and as this is utterly inadequate to maintain the dignity and rank of a peer the new Lord Coleridge may have - reason to regret his social promotion. 2] U e g n e

President of the French Republic Assassinated at Lyons.. His Murderer Refuses to Tell the Motive of His Awful Deed. Plunged a Dagger Into His Victim's Body as He Rode in a Carriage. The Famouz Frenchman Dees Not Long Survive His Wounds—His Career, CARNOT CUT DOWN. Lyoxs, June 25.—M. Sadi-Carnot, president of the French republic, is dead. He was struck down Sunday night by the hand of an assassin and died soon after midnight. The most intense excitement reigns throughout France. , x The president was visiting Lyons in connection with the international exhibition. Upon his arrival here he wag tendered a reception at the prefecqure, after which <he visited the ex)'kfition. After spending some time ther®he prgeeeded to the Palais de Commerce, where a banquet was given in hishonor. : At 9:25 President -Carnot started for the theater, where a gala performance was to be given because of his presence in the city. Several carriages were in. the procession, the first one being occupied by the president. M. Carnot’s carriage was driven slowly' along in front of the Palaisf{de Comierce, and,

When half way down the street, which was lined with enthusiastic crowds of people, who were loudly cheering, a man rushed out of the crowd and sprang upon the steps of the president’s landau. : Just at this moment M. Carnot was waving his right hand and saluting with his hat in his left hand in response to the ovation that was being given him. ' : ;

Saw the President Stabbed

The people close to the carriage saw that the man standing on the step had a knife in his hand. By the glare of thé electric lights they saw the bright blade gleam in the air as the assassin’s arm descended, and President Caxmot was seen to fall back in his seaf, his face deathly pale. Oneof his hands was pressed over his heart where the steel had entered the body.

M. Rivaud, prefect of Lyons, who was seated beside M. Carnot, immediately struck the assassin a blow full in the face and knocked him from the step, thus preventing the man from again stabbing the president, which it was his evident intention to do. The Assassin Captured.

Instantly cries of: ‘‘The president is assassinated!” ‘‘Death to the dssassin!” were heard on every side, "and the crowd in the vicinity of the carriage swelled to enormous proportions, every member seemingly intent upon killing the assassin. He was grasped by a dozen hands and his life would have then and there paid the forfeit of his crime had it not been for several sergeants de ville, who seized and attempted to draw him asay from his captors. . ' £ .

This was found to be impossible, as the infuriated populace was determined to lynch the man and the efforts of the sergeants availed ndthing beyond saving the man from instant death. Blows were aimed at his face and head, over the shoulders of the police, who had by this time received reinforce-, ments, and many of the blows landed. fairly. At last the police succeeded in-,l driving the howling mob back a foot or so from the prisoner, but to get the captive through the crowd was a physical impossibility. ~ Troops Charge on the Crowd. : In the meantime the news'of the attempted murder had spread with light-ning-like rapidity and mounted guards were sent to the aid of the police, who | were still struggling to preserve the l life of the assassin. With drawnsabers in their hands the guards rode dewn | into the erowd, heedless of whom their | horses trampled upon. The crowd gave way before the horses and at last the! center of the mob was reached. . Then a cordon was formed around the ten almost exhausted policemen and their captive and the march to the police station began. Even thus surrounded the prisoner was not safe, for l men in the crowd made frantic endeavors toreach him. The guards repelled theése attacks with the flat sides of their swords, while at the same time keeping watcehful eyes upon the crowd to prevent the prisoner from being shot. Maledictions were hurled upon the captive, and never before has such ‘ wild indignation against a human being been seen in this eity. - In the meantime physicians were hastily summoned to attend the president, who had almost immediately been conveyed to the prefecture. A careful examination was made of the wound and the doctors declared that the condition of M. Carnot was hopeless. i Lot Sensation at the Theater. The receipt of the news of the assassination caused a great sensation at the Grand theater, which was filled to the walls by the elite of Lyons. lhe theater presented a brilliant scene, the handsome toilets of the ladies being offset by the gay uniforms of the many military officers present. All were awaiting with impatience the arrival of the president and were unable to understand the delay. Suddenly a man entered the theater, crying at the top of his voice: ‘‘The president has been assasinated!” = The most intense excitement: followed this abrupt announcement. Women sereamed and several fainted, |

Many men, without waiting to secure ith,:ei'r hats, ran out of the building in order to confirm the hnews. They found ' all the streets leading to the palace filled with exeited throngs, and in a few minutes they were convinced that the report of the cowardly attempt upon the life of the president was true.

Suddenly through the throng sped a landau conveying Adrien -Dupuy. a brother of the prime minister. Deputy Chaudy and Prefect Rivaud, the crowd falling away before it asit dashed into the Rue de'la Republique, preceded by four mounted gendarmes. The crowd thinking now that the report of the assassination was untrue and that the ‘president was in the carriage shouted: “Vive Carnot,” *‘Vive la Republique.” Cheers Turned to Curses. The carriage was stopped and M. Chgudy and M. Rivaud, in tremulous voices, said: ““Don’t shout; the president has been the victim of an outrage” ' The cheers were instantly turned to curses,, and many and loud were the cries f,«?r vengeance. = - - The landau proceeded to the theater, where Rivaud and M. Chaudy went to the president’s box. As soon as ‘they were seen the whole audience arose and amid profound silence M. Rivaud said, in a voice broken with sobs: “The president has just been assassinated.” : ‘““Death to the Assassin.” This announcement was received with a terrible explosion of fury as the audience on the first report of the assassination had, though greatly excited, generally discredited it. The theater resounded with shouts of ‘A mort la assassin” and cries for vengence upon him. s : ‘When silence was in a measure restored M. Rivaud continued: “In the Rue de la Republique a miscreant, under the pretext of presenting a petition, stabbed M. Carnot with a dagger.” : o ‘M. Rivaud was again interrupted with shouts of ‘‘Death to the murderer!” ‘‘Revenge!” ‘‘Revenge!” Waving his hand for silence M. Rivaud again spoke, saying:’ ‘ “Do not make my mission more painful. We left M. Carnot in the hands of doctors. You understand that under these conditions our hearts are filled with sorrow, and that the proposed performance in the president’s honor eannot take place.” - The audience then left the building, many o6f them proceeding at once to the perfecture, where they stood in the streets waiting for any report that might be given out ahd discussing the crime that they considered had cast disgrace upon the fair fame of their city. , | - : The assassin is an Italian named Cesare Giovanni Santo. _ i Work of the Doctors. After examining the president’s wound all the physicians in attenance upon. him agreed that the operation was necessary, whereupon Dr. Ollier immediately probed the wound. While this was being done M. Carnot came to his senses. and said feebly but distinctly: “How you are hurting me.” The doctors, however, continued to attend the wound, the outward bleeding of which had stopped. They knew though that the president’s condition was extremely grave, as they more than suspected that internal hemorrhage had commenced. After M. Carnot had been takken from his carriage* and placed upon a bed in the prefecture nobody but doctors and the officers of his military household who had accompanied him to Lyons were allowed to enter the room to which he had been earried.

The Assassin a Beardless Youth.

Santo, the assassin, is a beardless young man of 20 or 25-years old. When arrested he was attired'in a brown suit and wore a peaked cap that matched the suit in color: As he marched, under his police guard, from the Rue ,de la Republique 'to the station, he held. his head down, but " his * eyes glanced furtively around as though he was seeking an opportunity to escape from his captors. To have made such an attempt, however, would' have been the height of foolhardiness unless he desired to commit suicide, for there is not the slightest doubt that had he got away from the protection of the police he would have been torn -limb from limb by the crowd, whose every action showed that they were thirsting for his- blood. o T :

° When the police party reacheéd/the Place des Cordeliers they were obliged to stop, while the landau in which were (en. Borius, the prefect, the l mayor and the wounded president, escorted by a detachment of mounted ‘Eguards on a gallop, was driven rapidly past them en route to the pre--fecture. A second carriage conveying the officers of the president’s military kousehold followed close behind. An Associated Press- reporter entered a: third carriage, in which were M. Burdeau, ex-minister of finance; and Senator Millaud. On arrival at the prefecture Gen. Borius, the pretect, and the mayor alighted. . : The }Vounded Man’s RemovaL : President Carnot lay motionless and unconscious upon the cushions of the carriage. His'eyes were closed. His: waistcoat was unbuftoned and his shirt, on which the bright red cordon of the Legion of Honor was conspicuous, was covered on the left side, just over the heart, by a large blood stain, which extended to the hip. It was impossible to tell from his appearance whether he was dead or alive. : The crowd surged aboutin the vicinity of the carriage, but mounted guards and foot police held them in check some distance from 'the landau in which the president was lying. Many were the expressions of pity for the president and anger at his assassin. Gen. Borius, the prefect, and the mayor, assisted by a number of attendants, lifted M. Carnot from the carriage and with difticulty carried him as tenderly as possible to a room on the first floor of the prefecture and laid him on a bed. Dr. Gailleton, who is mayor of Lyons, then examined the wound. : s . . Died Soon After Midnight. President Carnot died at 12:45 o’clock this morning. Shortly after midnight the archbishop of Lyons was summoned to the bedside of the dying president to administer to him the last rites of the church. He was in the room but ashort time when he emerged and retired to an adjoining ' room. Here he remained -until 12:30, when he was again summoned to the president’s room, where he administered to him the sacrament. e e M. Carnot remained conscious to the | last. He realized that his life was rapidly ebbing away and twice he said; ““Je m'en vais.” Dr. Ponce leaned over

the bed on which the president was lying and said to him: “Your friendsare here, monsieur le president.’” M. Carnot replied: ‘I am grateful for their presence,” and in less than a minute he gasped for breath, thefe was a convulsive shuddering of his body and the president of France was dead. Immediately after the death of M. Carnot Prime Minister Dupuy started on his return to Paris to. officially announce the news to the senate and the chamber of deputies. s

The bed on which M. Carnot died was of iron. It was placed between two windows of the palace. At its foot was the bed of honor which had been reserved for the president. The Incision made by the doctors in order to stop the internal hemorrhage measured about 3 inches long by 2 inches wide. ¢ ‘ : e Murderer Will Not Tell His Motive. -

‘Santo, who speaks French badly, when questioned by Prefect Lepin at the police station in Rue Moliere, “said he had lived at Cette, department -of Herault, for the past six months, and had only come to Lyons Sunday. He gave his' age as 22 years. His replies were given coolly, but without any sign of bravado. He refused, however, to answer any of the many questions put.to him/ regarding his motive for stabbing the president, declaring that on this subject he would speak only before a tribunal. When he was searched by the police a book was found in one of his pockets in which it was written that he had been born in a village in the province of Milan, Italy. : Vg

Mobbed the Italians.

After M. Carnot had been.taken to the prefecture it became generally known that his assassin wasan Italian and the feéling of deep indignation among thé crowd found vent in the form of attacks upon cafes kept by inoffensive natives of Italy. Three such places in the vicinity of the palace of commerce were totally wrecked by the infuriated mob. H‘rencix‘flags, which were iP abundance, were then procured by the crowd, and with cries of “Down with the foreigmners,” ‘Out with them,” hundreds of men and boys marched to the Rue de la Barre, in which street the Italian consulate is situated. There is no doubt that the consulate would have been sacked had it not been for the prompt action of the police, who stopped the erowd and compelled its members to disperse. All over the city threats are made to take summafy vengeance upon. the countrymen of Santo, and the authorities. fearing that attempts will be made to put these threats into effect, ordered bodies of cuirassiers to patrol the city to prevent any outbreak. Everywhere the troops are greeted with cries of !‘Long live the army.” - Aftér the attacks upon the Italian cafes .the disorderly element among the crowds devoted their attention to the Italians whom they found upon the streets. Several of these men were pursued by the mob and barely escaped ‘with their lives. The police, who were extraordinarily . vigilant, had great difficulty in rescuing the hun‘ed men. The Rue de la Barre is now barricaded at both ends and guarded by troops. o 0 s <

Paris, June 25.—Mme. Carnot accompanied by her two daughters, left this city at 1 o’clock this morning for Lyons. ‘T'he news of the assassination of her husband was broken to her as tenderly as possible..
