THE ASSASSIN THREATENED WITH MOB vIo-
LENCE.
BERLIN, June "a strong escort of
mounted police barely suftced to protect
Nobling from the mob when going to the
hospital. There was a rumor current that
the assassins name was Luding, and that he
was religious fanatic. This, however,
seems to be based on the fact that file of
an ultramontaue journal, The GeyndHiG. was
found in his room. a later telegram says
NoblinR has confessed that he cherished the
murderous design for eight days, because he
considered the emperor's removal would be
a public benefit. He declared that he favored
socialism and rad attended socialstic meet
lngs. Some accounts say Nobllng IS sup
posed to be dying. 1t is known that few
days ago NOblinAg unnecessarily applied for
government employment.
THE EMPERoR's CONDITION SATISFACTORY.
u
emperor continues satisfactory. The effect
of the news that another attempt had been
made on the life OF the emperor was astound-
ing. The outburst OF public feeling went far
beyond the manifestations made on the pre-
yious occasion, as NObhngs attempt ex-
ceeded that of Hoedel in the seii usness of Its
results A vast crowd assembled around the
palace and forced its way into the building,
and 1t only dispersed on receiving satisfactory
news OF the emperor's condition and a warn
ing that their loyal manifestations might ag
0ravate the suffering from his wounds. Ice
spot where the emperor was shot Is almost
five minutes walk from the scene of Hoedel's
attempt. DR.. Nobling came 10 Berlin few
weeks ago from Halle. He hired furnished
room ON the second floor at No. Is Inter
den Linden, from a window OF which the
shots were tired.
NoblIne was formerly in the civil service
of tee kingdom OF Saxony; he was regular
contributor to the agricultural journals, and
seems 10 have been in easy circumstances.
He studied agriculture and hnance In Halle
and Leipsic.
DR.. Nobhng is neither socialist nor ul-
tramontane, but is a Protestant, OF good
family and position, and far means. His
brothers are officers 10 the army. DIR. No

for long time. He bad accomphces who
had been IN communication with MIN on the
subject Of the ASSASSINATION OF the emperor
for six months.
