Pawtucket tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 1890-189?, 1892-07-25

Lake Norcross. the flend who failed 70
kill Russell Sage. and perished himself.
the wouldbe assassin OF the millionaire
manufacturer carried dynamite bombs.
They were small. but large enough TO
kill, and while being photographed at the
Central police station the man tried to
commit suicide In horrible manner.
He was caught IN the act Of chewing a
bomb. AMI il was quickly taken from
HIM. Chemists wonder how an explosion
was ayrrtrd.
For three days after the terrible riot OF
july Mr.. Frick was guarded by detec.
tives, but since that time he has evidently
not feared an assault. He was sitting In
his private Office Saturday after noon when
the eolored messenger announced that a
well-dressed young man desired an inter.
view. Mr. Frick granted the request and
Bergman entered. A moment later a
pistol shot ani sounds OF a scu file created
q panic In tie office and made every
clerks face whiten with fear.
Two more shots. and Mr.. Frick's shouts
for help brought them To their senses and
they rushed to the rescue. Mr. Frick was
graphing with his assailant, whose snow.
white clothes were red with blood from
the millionaire's wounds.
Mr.. Frick Pummsilsd the Man
until he tainted from loss Of blood. The
assassin made a rush for the elevator,
which had just stopped on the second
floor but there his progress WAS stopped
by dozen hands, and he was held until
the police arrived
There were at least 5000 people gathered
L., Ia IL
minutes after the shooting. A large num-
Der OF sullen men stood around, and more
than once was heard a muttered "Served
him right" But the generality Of the
people, business men aud workmen alike
'despised the Internal atrocity which
would conceive OF deliberate murder and
execute it at all risks.
A large crowd followed the patrol
wagon to the central police station, nnt
when the lookup was reached the police
were compelled 20 shut the gates to the
yards to keep out the people.
The Criminal Riddle
in the central police station here, called
indifferently "the anarchist" Alexander
Bergman aud Simon Roachman, is still
unsolved. His antecedents are unknown.
Whence he came or why be sho. Mr.. Frick
are matters OF conjecture purely No one,
even OF the shrewd detectives or news
p ,per men who have been at work since
his attempt at assassination, has got any
thing but contradictory or trivial informa-
tion from him. He stated that after his
transfer to the county Jail he would make
written statement for the Associated
Press, and until then he would decline to
answer any questions.
lie was whistling sentimental air
when cor iespCndent was admitted to
the calaboost yesterday. lie Is a slight,
but wiry looking youth, 22 years old near
sighted and wearing glasses. His most
peculiar feature is the mouth, which is
large and sensual, and has two curious
flaps OF flesh within the lips. which, when
his mouth Is open, still partially covers
his upper teeth. His chin Is strong, his
forehead excellently shape and the ears
stand out from the head. The only fault
to he found, with his appearance Is the
shifty, furtive manner In which he uses
his eyes. lie would not be notable man
In a crowd, and would be classed as a
German jew Of some education.
That he Is secretly pleased with the no
toriety he has gained Is evident, but that
he is n dreamy fanatic, who has gone
crazy over anarchistic literature, Is also
probable. Any study OF his character
must fail until more facts about him are
brought out. He has been photographed
twice. taking the operation good aturedly
and evidently trying to get good picture.

making no comments upon their news, IL
ma1ifestly much interested In whal they
say.

Of enforced idleness In such crisis would
do him more harm than the work itself
DR. Litchneld. who Is In constant at

Frick is doing nicely. and unless some
thing now unlocked for occurs the patient
will be up and about Ia few days. There
Is much more anxiety In the family over
Mrs. Frick's condition than that Of her
husband. She became mother twelve
days ago and has been In weak and
nervous condition. Saturday the papers
were kept from her and she was given TO
understand that the ARRAY at the Office
WAS a trifing one. She got hold Of a
newspaper yesterday, aud the whole story
thus given at once was almost disastrous.
She is receiving the best attention and the
best results sre hoped for.
