BENJAMIN HARRISON,
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1888-05-22

CHICAGO, May 2L.-What came near being
o 6rst-class tragedy was enacted this morning
near the corner of Fulton and Ann streets.
About $40 O'Clock. as Mr.. p. J. Bolander, who
says be il q real estate agent, was passing in
front of q saloon in the locality mentioned, q
slight looking man, dressed in . suit OF plain
black clothes and wearing . heavy black mus
tache, was leaning over = low fence, apparent
ly lost in thought Suddenly as Mr.. Bouiander
passed by, the strange man wheeled around
and levelipg . revolver At the real estate agent,
fired point blank at him, at the same time, ex-
claiming. 81 have you now" Mr.. Bolan6er
staggered back, the bullet grazsd. but did not
hit him. He sprang upon his a~ssailant and
grappled with HIM. The would-be murderer
made frantic efforts to escape or draw another
bead on Bolander, but the latter was TOO strong
for him. Mr.. Bolander succeeded in holding his
man until two officers arrived and brought both
men 10 the Desplaines-street station. On ar
irving at the station, Mr.. Bolander informed
Capt. Lewis that his assailant was not what he
appeared 70 DO, but was . woman in disguise.
This turned out to be true. The mustache
Was q false one. The woman was Of medium
height, had . very sallow complexion. and was
CHASTITY looking. Mr.. Bolandsr identified her az
being Lille Richmond. with whom he claims 20
have lived for some time. Both parties claim
20 Be married.

the field would be clear for the sue
cess of the strongest man. Such . COM
bined opposition OF hostile factions
would prove absolutely fatal to Mr.. Blalne's
chances. IL would make the struggle hard and
bitter in the convention, and if he gained the
the disgruntied and disappointed as
pirants and their following would give the nom
inee o heartless support The one cardinal
point that must determine whether the Maine
statesman would run again was unanimously
decided to hinge upon the harmony with which
the party would go into the campaign with his
name at the head Of the ticket.
Without the encouragement OF Mr.. Blaine.
ard, in fact. against his protestations that he
had no thoughts of further honor, his nomina-
ton has been pushed. He had kept within the
four walls of his home hereOnd studied to avoid
public notice. Mr.. Blsines friends realized
that the fact of his mere presence in the coun-
try wonld stimulate these undesirable reporta
quietly at work in his own behalf was for him
to 60 abroad. This was determined upon as .
necessary move and Mr.. Blaine sailed. Il was
fully intended 20 have nothing said or
done that would justify the belief that Mr..
Blaine was even willing TO carry his party
Of President Cleveland 50 clearly defined the
great issue which promised to be vital in the
campaign that Mr.. Blaine could not refrain
from selling the unexpected opportunity to
place himself firmly and promptly at the head
of the advocates OF protection. The effect OF
Mr.. Blaine's absence and Of his letter to Chair
man B. F. Jones has been exactly what was an
ticipated. Scores Of aspirants have sprung up
on all sides, and sfavorit sons" have made their
appearance in near.y every State.
When the Republican national convention
meets in Chicago there will'be q score OF smbi-
tious men. each one with q following. but Mr..
Blame viii be nominated on the fourth ballot
