ATTEMPT TO MURDER
GRAND DUKE NICHOLAS
Only Meager Details of Affair
Obtained.
WAS REVIEWING MANEuvERINo
Bold Attempt on the Grand Dukes
Life Caused an Immediate Change
In the Plans of the Emperor-Af-
fair Created Deep Impression.

St. Petersburg, Aug. II. lNoon).-
Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaievitch,
president of the council of national
defense, narrowly escaped assassina-
ton Friday afternoon at the hands
Of the imperial guards In the guard
camp at Krasnoye-Selo.
Thus far the Associated Press has
only been able to obtain meager de-
tails of the affair, from which 1t ap.
pears that the grand duke was per-
sonally reviewing, maneuvering and
putting the troops through blank-fir-
ing practice, when he suddenly was
startled by the wisp-like hiss of bull
lets about his head.
Fortunately, neither himself nor
his horse was touched. The COM
mand to cease firing was Immediately
given and the soldiers Of the regi-
ment from which the bullets came
were marched back to their quar-
ters and an investigation was begun
in the hope Of ascertaining from the
barrels Of the rifles which of the sol
diers fired ball cartridges. Several
arrests are understood to have been
made.
One of the grand dukes aides-de-
camp, who, however, was not person
ally present, advanced to the Associat-
ed Press the theory that possibly the
bullets were fired by accident, but he
considered that beyond doubt there
was plot on the part of a number of
guardsmen, who deliberately planned
to take the grand dukes life under
cover of the general blank cartridge
firing
ut was no more an accident" said
the aidede-camp, than was the fir
Ing of the charge Of grape shot from
the saluting battery at the winter pal
ace on. the occasion of the ceremony
of blessing the waters of the Neva
by the emperor a year and a half
ago"
The bold attempt on the grand
dukes life caused an immediate
change in the plans Of the emperor
who had arranged to go to Krasnoye-
Selo Saturday and spend week with
the soldiers of his imperial guards.
1t was learned that the troops were
extended order and engaged in vol
lie yfring when the accident" occur
red, rendering it difficult to deter
mine the regiment from which the
bullets came. The grand duke, sur
rounded by officers and aides, was off
on one side, out Of the line of Are.
The affair has created a deep i'm
preston in military circles, and the
one topic Of conversation in the clubs,
but the attempt on the grand dukes
life is not known here, no word on the
subject having been published in the
newspapers

ATLANTA GIRL TRIES SUICIDE.
Mise shewnine Attempts to Drswn
Herself

Herself.
Chattanooga, Tenn, Aug. 11-Seek.
Ing watery grave IL which to hide
her sorrows and end Ter life, Miss
Babel Shswning, a beautiful young
woman, giving her address as 80
Peachtree street, Atlanta, endeavored
to commit suicide Friday night by
jumping from the county bridge ovec
the Tennessee river at this place.
Miss Shewning came to this place
about two weeks ago from Atlanta
Ga, and has been stopping at various
hotels in the city with her alleged sis
ter, Mrs. Mabel Woodside, also claim.
Ing to be from Atlanta. She has
been the recipient of ardent atten-
tions by one of the prominent young
men in this city since her arrival here.
and was apparently enjoying life to
its fullest extent.
Friday night she went out driving
with Mrs. Woodside and this friend,
and the next thing heard of her was
the attempt to take her own life
by jumping from the bridge.
She was prevented by a man who
was on the bridge at the time, and
was taken into custody by the police,
where she is now being held pending
hearing from her relatives. The only
cause ascrtbed for her rash act is that
the young man who has been so ar
dent In his attentions is soon to be
married.
The name of Miss Mabel Shewning
Is not in the directory, and 80 Peach
tree street is the English-American
building.

Charlotte, N c., Aug. 11.-George
Hall, cotton mill operative, was on
Friday night convicted of conspiracy
in connection with the lynchtng of the
three negroes at Salisbury, Monday
night last, and given term OF Is
years in the state penitentiary.
The hearing of the case began when
court opened at 1890 a. ~. Al 6:15
D. m, after hearing sever, j. witnesses
establishing Halls participation in the
lynching, the case was given to the
jury After being out twenty min
utes, verdict OF guilty was agreed
upon and the maximum penalty for
the offense charged was imposed by
Judge B. F, Long. Court adjourned
for the day at 7:10 p. II.
This is said to be the first convic-
ton of the kind ever secured in this
state, although a number of efforts
have been made TO bI1ng members of
mobs to justice.
The state sprung a surprise in the
trial when the offense aginst the pris-
oner was changed from murder to
conspiracy
When the court was called to order
Hon. 7. j Kluttz announced that his
client would contend that the court
was unlawful. 1t was argued that
the governor could not sign a com
mission for such a court unless he
was in the state, and it was claimed
that he was at Atlantic City, n J. Mr..
Kluttz asked that subpoena be is
sued for Governor Glenn, and have
him brought to court to testify. This
was done. and the chief executive
of the state was sworn and question
ed about his whereabouts on the 18th
of July, the day that the call for the
court was made. He said that he
was in Atlantic City, N. j., but in
order to do what he could to prevent
a lynching he wired his private secre-
tary 10 issue the commission and sign
his name to it. This he considered
the proper thing to do.
The objection of the defendant was
overruled and the trial proceeded.
The first witness was David w Julian
a deputy sheriff, who testified that
ne saw Hall leading mob of about
so men, some of whom the witness
knew. The officer had in custody a
man he had arrested at the jail. Hall,
said the witness, carried a hammer
and threatened to brain him If he did
not liberate the prisoner. Mr.. Kluttz
objected to this testimony in it's en-
tirety.
Other testimony was offered in the
afternoon and the case speedily given
to the jury.
