Caledon Vaal, attended to accept the
surrender. General Pr1nsloo, lately
elected to the chief command, arrived

New York. July 31.-A representative
of the Italian consulate went to Hobo

Rome. July 31.-The police are push

information with regard to the aSSaS-
sin, Bressi, is not yet very definite. 1t
appears that when he was searching for
lodgings on Friday at Monza he was
accompanied by a young man, whom
the police are now seeking. The pistol
the assassin used was a new and su-
perior weapon marked "Massachu-
setts.''
The police of Milan searched the

pleased with his welcome at Monza and

and said:
I'D like to return afoot,' but he was
dissuaded.
