49,
duke from venturing in the motor car
again. To allay her fears M. Potiorek,
governor of Bosnia, said:
Its all over now. We have not
more than one murderer in Sarayevo.'
Whereupon the archduke decided to
hall was continued Here the town
councillors, with the mayor at their
head, were awaiting the royal party
to bid them welcome
Rebuke to Burgomaster.
The royal party entered the hall
and the mayor was about to begin his
address when Archduke Francis Fer
dinand interrupted him, and in an
angry manner said:
Herr Burgomaster it is perfectly
scandalous. We have come to Sara
yevo on a visit and bomb is thrown
at u.s..
Here he paused moment and then
said:
Nov you may go on"
Assassin a Good Marksman.
After making the rounds of the
town hall, which occupied half an
hour, the archduke and the duchess
started for the garrison hospital to
visit Colonel Morizzi, who had been
taken to the hospital in a carriage
after being wounded by the bomb.
AS the royal car reached the corner
or Rudolf street, man named Gavrio
Prinzip, who was on the sidewalk,
fired two pistol shots at the archduke
and the duchess.
The man, who was only short dis
lance from the car, was good marks
man. The first shot struck the Ouch
ess of Hohenberg low down on the
right side, while the second bullet hit
the archduke in the neck, near the
throat, and pierced the jugular vein.
Assassin Well Coached.
The fact that the assassin aimed
directly at the archduke's head leads
the police to believe that the killing
is the result of a well planned plot
Francis Ferdinand always wore bull
let-proof jacket under his outer gar
ments. This was supposed to be a
closely guarded secret known to only
those within the immediate circle Of
the archduke. If this fact was not
known to the assassin, the police be-
lieve, he would have aimed for the
body of his victim instead Of at the
smaller target, the archdukes head.
The duchess became unconscious
Immediately and fell across the knees
Of her husband. The archduke lost
consciousness in few seconds after
he was hit
Murder Result of Plot?
The murders occurred with such
rapidity that many persons near the
scene did not even hear the shots.
According to some accounts, Prinzip
fired several shots, but only two were
effective. These witnesses said he
was hiding behind a house and dart
ed forth as the royal car passed. He
actually climbed onto the car, accord
ing to one story, and the fact that no
one stopped him is taken to indicate
tndL JH0 dSSdSSludC1On was Tic ISouil
of carefully planned conspiracy.
This theory is supported by the
fact that few yards from the scene
of the actual assassination of the arch
duke and duchess an unexploded bomb
was found. 1t had evidently been
thrown away by third assassin after
he had seen the success of the second
attack on the royal couple.
Prinzip was seized by police almost
as soon as he had fired the fatal shots.
Only protection by the officers pre-
vented him from mobbing by the great
crowd which had collected.
The assassins were Intercepted by
the police and both seemed to glory in
their exploit. Prinzip said he had
studied for time at Belgrade. He
declared he had long intended to kill
some eminent person from Nationalist
motives.
He was awaiting the archduke at a
point where he knew the automobile
would slacken speed, turning into
Franz Josef strasse The presence OF
the duchess in the car caused him to
hesitate, but only for moment. Then
