PRESENCE OF MORGAN'S
LAWYER REVIVES RUM0R
Here on Business With Studebaker
Corporation-May Mean Larger
Auto Plant.

Frederick Dellaheld. general coun-
sci for ]. Pierpont Morgan & Co. New
York, is in South Bend today, having
matters in charge pertaining to the
Studebaker corporation. Efforts 20
obtain an interview proved futile It
is rumOred that plans are being laid
for the removal of the Detroit plant
of the Studebaker corporation to South
Bend and that within another year
all its automobile manufacturing Will
be done here, but no confirmation OF
the story could be obtained.
1t is known. however. that way is
being made for something at the stu
debaker plant. Already the automO-
bile bodies are a South Bend product.
The wagon and buggy shops and har-
ness factory, are being segregated in
new quarters. Should the automO-
bile works be moved 10 this city. II
will mean probably 5000 additional
employees at the plant. Mr.. Dellafield
states that his visit is purely of a legal
and not Of an industrial nature.

ing the jury box.

ST PETERSBURG, Russia, June
1S-An unsuccessful attempt was
made today 10 assassinate Car Mich
olas Of Russia, the czarine and the
czarevitch. Alexis, while they were re-
turning TO st. Petersburg from a visit
TO Bucharest. Roumania-
A dynamite bomb had been placed
upon the railroad tracks over which
the imperial train was travelling, ana
the lives OF the imperial family were
probably saved by the fact that a pos
tai train which was acting as pilot,
passed over the bomb first, exploding
il.
The attempt at assassination took
place near TschudOwO, Russia, IN the
IrovinCe of Novgorod, about 70 miles
from st. Petersburg.
A terrific explosion occurred when
the mail train collided with the IN
fernal machine, which had been load
ed with dynamite.
The imperial train was stopped by
the Wreckage but was able TO continue
on it's way a short time later.
IL was reported several arrests had
been made. Elaborate preparations
had been made to protect the lie or
the car and his family.
Changed Plans Suddenly.
The special train was sent over the
direct route from the Roumanian
border to st. Petersburg, but had been
detOUred southwest OF the capital

assassination took place, is a railroad

sian yacht STANDARD on Sunday and

Charles OF Roumania.
Only Few Knew Plans.
IL was decided to return direct to
this city instead OF extending the
cruise upon the STANDARD, which had
first been planned. On account of the
change in plans. which was known to
Few, the attempted assassination took
on deeper mystery.
Officials Of the secret police believe
that Nihilists must have been respon-
sible. but they are at a loss to under
