HOUNSDITCH ROBBERY.
ASSASSINS ARE RUSSIANS. By Telcjjruph.—Press Association.— Copyright Received December 20, 9.10 p.m. London, Yesterday. The identity of the Hounsditch assassins has been established. They are all Russians. One of the constables has received appalling wounds in the dorsal regions of the ribs and his thigh. Thirty armed detectives are searching Eastern London. Doctor Bernstein, who conducted an autopsy on Goldstein, states that the bullet in his body is similar to that extracted from the policeman. Goldstein'is a Lithuanian and wore Rus-sian-made clothing. He has probably been in England for only a few weeks, and must have belonged to a gang of terrorists who are not ordinary East End ruffians. An inquest has been opened and evidence given that Goldstein told the doctor attending him that he had been shot in mistake by a friend.
