Mineola, N. Yy July Frank Holt the attempted assassin of J. P. Nor. gan, shielded in tho county jail at this place last night There seems to be some difference of opinion as@ to just how he accomplished it. One report states that he was confined in the top cell of double tier anu climbed through an opening ill tho top of the door and plunged down into the narrow court below, fractur- ing his skull. Other officers state that he was found dead in the corpw of his own cell this morning, with his skull fractured Knowing of the methods used by the police of this state in wringing confessions out of, accused prisoners, many people of this place are of the opinion that Holt was killed by the police offic. ials in administering tho "third de- gree.''
 Morgan's condition today is very satisfactory. Some little fever has developed in one of the wounds, but. no more than was to be expected. andthe injured man is resting easily.
 Holt attempted suicide with a lead pencil yesterday. He ask for and waA given writing material yesterday, and after writing letter to his wife, tried to tear open the arteries in his wrist with the point of the pencil, but after lacerating himself badly, be broke the point of the pencil and later was discovered.

The Germans .st night claimed to have broken the russian line near Basnik, driving one section east and the other toward ne city of Lubin, in Poland so that here is little to halt them now or ranized between their present position nd Warsaw. The Russians say that heir line is intact, and that the Ger ans have been compelled to fall back

 the right wing of the German foe 's This the Russians state was ef
