PARIS, May 1.-THE French embassy at
Toxic has telegraphed the official details
OF the attack upon the czarewItch. From
these it appears that the czarewiich's as
sailant was policeman named Thunda,
who had been eight years in the service.
The czarewitch and his suite were leaving
Otsa in jinrikshas. having just visited
buddhist temple. Both the czarewitch
and Prince George went to the shrines
with the Chief Bonz. They were entering
the jinrikshas whenThunda dealt the care
witch a blow with his sword. Prince
Georges return blow with his stick threw
Thunda several feet. The policeman arose
and ma ie another rush at the czarewitch.
A Japanese closed the front of the car
riage, another japanese wrested the sword
from Thunda and cut him down, inhicting
a severe wound. The Chief Bonz with
several guards arrested the man. The
czarewitch's injury has already healed.
The Dir-NeltriRescle states that CONNER
cial adviceS have been received at Mar
seilles from Trebisonde to the effect that
new volcano has appeared IN Armenia
at the summit of Mount Nimrod in the
district of Van, vomiting forth flames and
lava. The villages at the base OF the
mountain have been destroyed and many
persons are said to have been killed or in
jured. The fugtives are camping outside
the range of destruction. They are al
most entirely destitute and the greatest
misery prevails among them. The Turk
ish government has taken measures to
aid the sufferers.
Although the chamber of deputies has
debated the tariff for a fortnight the
mobure practically has not advanced
step. The house is tired OF the whole
business before the really business part
of the discussion on the articles of the
tariff has begun. So much time has been
wasted thatit will be impossible to deal
with details this session unless they are
rushed through. in which event the gov
ernment bill will be preferred TO the in
creased tariffs proposed by the commit
tee. In spite of the appeals of the free
traders a reduction of the governm ent's
proposals is out of the question.
Snow storms prevailed today at Belfort
and Nancy. The mountains of Alsace are
covered with snow.

grant whatever may be necessary to vim
dicate the right OF France.
