PARIS. Sent. Tine French Official

the attempt to ASA ssinate President Nc
KInley. In view of the cars coming
visit to France, there is anx.etJ lest a
similar attempt be made on the life OF
the Russian emperor while he is the guest
of France More precautions have been
already determined upon, but the
Stringency of the measures undoubtedly
will be increased ten fold. The foreign
minister. M Delcasse, was one of the
first callers at the United States en-
bassy today He had previously cabled
to Washington an expression of sym
pathy, but he said he W shed to personal
Nv express to Ambassador Porter his
feelings of profound regret and horror in
behalf of the president and ministers or
the republic.
The PREMIER Ne. Waldeck- Rousseau,
and all the cabinet ministers either called
personally at the embassy or sent their
cards.
M. Poulet, chief of President Loubet's
household, called on the latter's behalf
and the diplomatic corps and all the
prominent Americans In Paris signed the
register.
At Gen. Porter's house stream of car
riages began to arrive at 10 o'clock in the
morning and continued the best part of
the afternoon.
Gen. Porter and Consul General Gowdy
were much distressed. in view of their
close friendship with President Mckinley.
The Americans in Paris and the French
people learned the news of the attempt
on the life of President Mckinley when
they opend their newspapers at break
fast table this morning. Even the United
States ambassador, Gems Horace Porter,
was not aware until today of the tragedy
that had been enacted iniBuffalo. He re-
tired early last evening, being fatigued
and not feeling well, and he was not dis
sturbed, in the absence of an official dis
patch.
A dispatch was sent to President Lou
bet, who is at Rambouillet, late last
night, and it was not delivered until to-
day.
The news spread through Paris with
1.-The rapidity of WhirlWind and it was
discussed to the exclusion of every other
topic, not merely by Americans, but by
the PariSians. There are many Ameri-
cans stopping in Paris for few days, on
their way home from other European
countries and every hotel courtyard has
its group, earnestly discussing, the news.

New York Herald's office was a great
crowd awaiting bulletins of the latest
condition of the president.

men are emanating from every side.

is anxious to express deep regret and
adherence at the crime. President klc-
