veiied in mystery. but it is asserted
that William escaped WITHOUT injury.
A villager, at first thought to be a
Belgian, but later identified as Ger
man. Is said to have entered the castle
by the use of a false permit and then
tried to kill Count NHohenzollern. Nj.
Parebroom. private secretary of the
former emperor. assured the Asso-
ciated Press this morning that no
attack had been made on William of
Hohenzollern.
Dispatches received on Thursday

ed in gaining admittance to Doom

peror and wounded him on the Jaw.

current that an attack had been
made. but no confirmation Of it has
been received. A British dispatch
received Friday night stated news
