ATTACKED THE GOVERNOR.
An Anarchists Attempt to Assn ssinate
BarcelOna's Ruler.


BarcelOna's Ruler.
Ramon Marrull, anarchist workman,
tried yesterday afternoon to assassinate r.
Larroca, civil governor Of Barcelona, Spain.
The governor left the prefecture as usual
at 100 O'Clock. He had entered his car
riage and was giving orders to the foot
man. Marrull had been lettering in front
of the prefecture for some time with a
friend, but both were decently dressed
the policeman on duty had not suspected
them of any evil purpose.
AS the footman was about to mount
Marrull pushed by him, drew u revolver,
and, thrusting his arm through the win
dow, fired twice at Larroca. The governor
was struck in the left jaw by the second
bullet, bu, he did not lose his presence of
mind. Pushing open the door, he shouted
to his coachmah: Arrest that scoundrei."
The few pedestrians in the street hasten
ed to assist the governor, but before they
reached the carriage the coachman jumped
from the box, and, with the help of a po-
lceman. had seized and disarmed his mas
ters assailant. Marrull grew penitent after
few hours in Jail. and protested that he
intended only to frighten Larroca. He re-
fused to give the name of the man who was
with him in front of the prefecture and
ran away after the first shot
The governor was taken into the pre-
lecture and the bullet was extracted from
his jaw. Although he suffered much pain
his physicians say his wound is not dan
gerOuS.
