ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 2e.-saturday's
unsuccessful attempt on the life OF Pre-
mier stolypin with its sickening useless
slaughter of thirty-two persons was fol-
lowed tonight by another revolutionary
outrage in which General Min. commander
of the seminovsky guards regiment and
who, since his promotion to be a general
has been attached as a personal adiutant.
to the suite of the emperor. was killed
on the station platform at Peterhof by a
young woman, who fired Ave shots into
his body from an automatic revolver and
then without resistance, submitted TO arr
rest. The capture of the girl was effected
by General Minis wife, who held her until
the arrival OF an officer.
This was the third successive attempt on
the life of General Min, who was con-
demned to death by the terrorists imme-
diately after the Moscow revolt last De-
cember. on account Of stern repression
practiced by a battalion under his com-
mand and especially forythe wholesale ex-
ecution of persons condemned to drum
head court martial for being caught with
arms In their hands
General Min was returning from his sum-
mer residence at Peterhof and had just
greeted his wife and daughter on the plat
form when a young woman-almost stri
approached from behind and fred two
shots into his back and then three more
into his body as he sank to the ground.
Further shots were prevented by Madame
Min. who threw herself upon the mur-
deress and seized the hand which held the
pistol. The woman did not attempt to
escape, but she cautioned Madame Min not
xatnl sha plara1
on the platform before shooting the gem
eral explaining that It contained bomb.
ADMITS the Crime.
To the police the girl acknowledged that
she had executed the sentence of the fight
ing organization OF the social revolution
lists, but she refused to give her name.
= BY a remarkable mischance General Mia
only last week. after the conclusion OF the
maneuvers at Krssnoye-Selo, dismissed the
body, guard which had accompanied him
since the first attempt was made on his
1ife saying that the ordinary police OF
Psterhof would be sufficient to guard him
and his villa at Peterhof. 'Sss q
During the Moscow revolt Min. who was
then a colonel. commanded the First
battalion of the Seminovsky guards which
operated within the city itself. The sec
ond battalion OF the guard. under the COM
mand OF Colonel Riman, conducted reprea-
sions along the railroad to Kazan. for
which acts Riman also was condemned to
death. Undeterred by several attempts TO
execute this sentence. Riman accepted an
appointment on the stan OF General Skal-
Ion, governor general Of Warsaw. after the
bomb outrages at Warsaw. and left two
days ago to assist in the suppression OF
