NO DESIRE TO KILL.
STATEMENT BY THE YOUTH. MERELY SOUGHT SENSATION. Received July 16, 5.5 p.m. Paris, July 14. M. Millerand was re!. rning from a gre t review in celebration of July 14. His car entered L’Avenue de Martigny, preceded by two police cars, and followed by a squadron f mounted Spahis. It was probably this arrangement which led Bouvet to believe tbc Pre-’ Vit was in the second of the two leading cars. Immediately he fired he tried to run away, but a cyclist policeman ran into hisAegs, while T’her po’ found difficulty in rescuing him from the crowd, which wanted to lynch him. M. Millerand, on arriving at the ’ Elysee, congratulated M. Naudin on his ; escape, and the latter replied, smiling- . ly; “I have just received my baptism of pfirO in Paris.” Bouvet declared he did, not wish to kill Millerand, but merely to create a sensation and draw attention to the present situation of the proletariat. Two revolvers were found on him.— Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
