German Minister to Siam Assaulted

German Minister to Siam Assaulted.
A special to the New York Herald
from Bangkok, Siam, says: Here arc
the details OF the attack on the Ger
MN minister: While driving, his
pony SHE'D and injured u Chinamau.
The minister stopped to inquire into
the extent Of the mans hurt and was
promptly surrounded by the police,
who seized sud struck him. He was
hustled to the police station, despite
his protests and his declaration Of
his rank. An American engineer and
an English official Of legation ex-
plained the situation in tho vornacular,
but the police assaulted both of them,
crying, 'Down with foreigners" The
minister was then detained. The pub
lie apology is considered grotesque.
No mandarins were present, but only
a petty police officer. Following the
assault on the American consulate at
Chieng Mai, the affair caused unusual
excitement. Consul General Bar
rctt's position is strengthened.
