THE AsSAlLANT UNIDENTIFIED.
Police Mysiified-Extra Precautions 10 Pro-
tect Shah and President.

Paris, Aug. 3.-12 40 A. Mp to mid
night, nothing regarding the would-be
assassin or his connections has been
learned that was not known within half
an hour after his arrest. He maintains
absolute silence. The popularity of his
accent, although he speaks perfect
French. mystifies the officials. it having
been asserted by one of these that his
accent was English, a man speaking
English was permitted to enter his cell.
The visitor addressed him but he gave
the appearance of absolute inability to
understand and the visitor came away
convinced that he was not acquainted
with that language. The impression
left was that he is from Southern
France, or possibly is a border Span
lard
While the popular belief is that he
had an accomplice, there is no actual
evidence to prove this. The police are
thoroughly mystified and disconnected.
Although the man has been seen by
most of the secret service officials. not
one of them has been able to recognize
him. Paris has received the news of
the attempt with but one sentiment.
that of indignation. All join to con-
denim this outrage upon the guest of
the nation. AS a result of it, the Shah
will hereafter be surrounded by a
guard wherever he goes. Extra pre-
cautions will also be taken to protect
President Loubet.
