Americans discussing what, without dis
tinction of race, is regarded as a national
calamity. Comparatively few English
men heard the news last night, but all
these expressed horror and sympathy as
genuine as If it had been the king in
stead of the president. The latters kind
ly personality. his friendship for Eng
land, and his kindly message Of con-
dolcnce upon the occasion of Queen Vic
toria's death, were recalled, in voices as
low and awe-stricken as those of any
purely American gathering.
All the newspapers this morning pub
lish long accounts Of the attempted as
sassination or President Their
editorials are unanimous in their express
sions OF horror at the dastardly crime and
profess the profoundest sympathy for

Paterson, N. j., Sept. 1.-THE anarchists
OF this city are greatly excited over oshe
attempted assassination of President Nc

Is against the deed and the man who
tried to commit the murder. They would
all readily sympathize with any one who
would kill an European monarch, but
they protest against being represented as
sympathizing with Nierhan.

tione, last night. II think he is a lunatic

would not prosecute US. We never plot
the death of rulers, but we sympathize
with any one who removes monarch.
