A crank, armed with an antiquated
bull dog" revolver, was caught near
President Roosevelts house at Saga
more Hin, Oyster Bay, N. Y, by the
secret service guards. The man de-
scribed himself as John Coughlin,
detective, and when stopped by the
secret service men presented card
upon which was inscribed his name
and the word officer" He said that he
had come 10 ask the president 10 order
out 10000 troops TO catch yeggmen
who had been terrorinzlng Boston. He
was sent to an asylum.
Secret Service Agent Adams tried
TO explain that the president was not
seeing visitors at the moment, hoping
to get him quietly out Of the grounds
Coughlln hesltated a moment and then
slid his hand toward the back pocket
OF his trousers. Adams grappled with
his man without further parley. Cough
lin struggled for a moment, but he is
a slightly britt man and Adams had
no difficulty in holding him until
Agent James Sloan. Jr.. came 10 his
assistance. Sloan searched the pris-
oner and found in his hip pocket a
thirty-two caliber revolver Of the bull
dog" type. The weapon was wrapped in
a wooden bag and, according 10 the
secret service men, was not loaded
The news that an armed cragk had
attempted to reach the president at
Sycamore Hill started a series Of the
usual rumors accompanying such an
incident. The one most widely circu-
lated here was to the effect that a
shot had been fired at the president
while he was out horseback riding last
II was said that the presi-
dent was riding along the Cove road
near the house Of his cousin. w. Emlen
when he was fired upon by
some one concealed in a clump Of
bushes at the roadside.
That there was any foundation for
the story was denied by those in a po-
sition TO know.
