create.
BRAND incurred the enmity of
Gisoime several years ago when as a
ca binet members he discharged
Gisoime from a public Office because
he fired a revolver at the French con-
sui a. San Sebastian.
The premier was pressed for Il
statement regarding the attack on him
but refused, declaring that an inter
view from him at this time might in
terfere with justice.
That Gisolme was bent on murder
was shown by the fact that after he
was seized, he struggled with his cap
tors and tried to continue firing.
Justice Mirman was rushed to n
hospital when II was found that his
injury was not as serious as at first
thought.
Gisoime is a radical Socialist. which
fact probably added to his enmity of
BRAND. who Is accused by the Social
lists of deserving their cause when he
saw q chance to win governmental
favor. BRAND was at one time a So
cialist leader. but hts conduct during
the recent railway strike convinced
the Socialists that they could no longer
expect any fayors from his hands.
Since that time the Socialists have
been very bitter toward him. For n
time the premier was considered in
such danger that he never appeared In
public without an escort.
