Sir. I'rlck-TUo Details.
PITTSDOKO , Pa. , July ! i3. A desperate nd
almost successful attempt was made this
afternoon to assassinate Henry Clay FrlcK ,
cbnlrinnn of the Curucglo Steel company ,
limited.
His assailant was Alex Borkman , a Kus-
Mini Jew , who cumo here from' Now York
with the avldotit lotontlon of removing the
man who has ooon the principal ono of tlio
employers in the great struggle now point ;
on between capital ana labor In this city. It
4 was a few minutes ueforo 2 o'clock this
afternoon when a dark coinploxlonod young
man with n Jewish caste of eounUmanco , of
medium height aud fairly well drtssod. entered -
tored the elevator In the Chroulolo-Tole-
prnph bulldlug , which Is also occupied by
the Carnegie Stc"l company , limited , and
nsknd to bo lot oft nt Mr. Frictt's oilloj. The
young man had boon a frequent visitor dur
ing the past few days , and Uavld Forlney ,
the elevator boy , thought nothing of the
request , but stopped ut the pocond floor und
polntod out the way to the chairman's pri-
vulo room.
Hlurtled \ > r Pistol Shots.
Two minutes later the occupants of the
building and passors-by on Fifth avenue
were startled by three pistol shots , llrod In
rapid succession.
Intuitively the victim was dh'Inod and
"FrlcK Is shotl1' "Frick Is shot ! " were tno
words soon passed from mouth to mouth on
the street.
It was trua. A man bollovod to bo a crank
had assailed the grout stool raiitor , but the
f latter , tiotwlthatnudin ? two bullet wounds
find four ugly gashes from a dagger , still
lives and will probably recover.
As was his custom Mr. Frick took lunch nt
the Duqucsno club ut noon today and ro-
turnud to his onico at 1:3j : thU afternoon.
Ho wont to the Uflh Hoar , where ho re
mained but a few minutes. Ho than came
down the elevator to his private room on the
second floor , fronting on Fifth avenue ,
where ho scaled hlmsolf nt his desk. The
olllco of Mr. Lolshmnn , a business partner
of Mr. Frlck's , adjoins that of the latter.
Mr. Lelshman caino In and the two we.ro
holding u private conference , no ono clso
being In the room.
The Woiild-llo Assimgln Appear * .
A few minutes before 2 o'clock Harry
licckloy , the ofllco boy , noticed u man
hastily push open the swinging gate In tbo
railing that runs botwcon thu public ) portion
and the enclosure where the desks of the
stenographers and clerk" are located.
There was no ono'noar the private odlco
door and the boy hurried up to ask the In
truder what ho wanted , out ho was too Into ,
as the stranger hud already entered the
private apartment. As ho entered the ofllco
\ Mr. Frick looked up , us did also Mr. Lelsh-
iniin , to see who It was. Mr. FrlcK was
examining n bundle of paporf. The man
prang within about , llvo foot of Mr. Frick
ami quickly drawing his revolver pulled the
trlcgor.
The first cartridge did not explode , the
locond shot entering the back nf Air. Frlck's
neck und glancing downward , passed to the
outsldo below the armpit. Frick ma-Jo an
exclamation and jumped to the circular
window on Fifth avenue and rlod In vain to
open It.
The assailant passed In front of the desk ,
and approaching close to Mr. Frick , lived
ngaln. The bull entered the muscle on the
left siuo of the neck and passed around to a
lodgement under tbo right car , where it was
later reached by the probo.
Dexporato Mrilgulo ulth the Desperado.
At this instant Mr. LeUhman throw him
elf on the would-bo assassin and wrestled
for possession of tha revolver. Mr. Lclsh
man clutched the barrel and pointed the
\ imtzzlo upward , ns the carlrlugo exploded
the ball entered the plastering near the glass
partition. With agility the desperado drew
n dugrcr niul attempted to stub Mr. Lcish
man , who was holding the assailant by the
shoulder and body.
Mr. Frick saw the gleam of steel , and al
though staggering from the shock of the two
wounds and blooding profusely , Jumped between -
twoon the man and sclzad tha man's arm.
The latter freed himself from Irishman's
grasp and plunged the dagger Into Mr.
Frlck's right ldo Just above the hip , mak
ing an ugly wound three Inches long. Ho
inadn another lunge and this tftno the knlfo
truck higher up , but the point ttruult a rib
and glanced down without Inlllcilug much
of an Injury. Twice again was the kntfo
'thrust at Mr. Fnou , but ho wus moiely
scratched by those last attempts to kill him.
The struggle was In full view nf these on
the street. By this time the olllco boys and
Deputy Sheriff May , who Just entered ns the
flrntshot was tired , throw themselves on tno
ustusbln.
I'rlck Sui < > * HU A * lliint' * 1.1 IV.
Mny hud drawn tils revolver und was about
to shoot the follow In the bark when Frick
cried out : "Don't kill him. Wo'vo got him
all right. Leave him to the law. "
The man broke awuy and triad to escape
but u'at bcciircd und taken to the Central
pollco station. Thu prompt uetlon of Mr.
Frick saved the lives of Mr. Lolshmnn and
lili self.appointed executioner. In live mlii-
utos a dozen surgeons , Including Lrs. ) Lltch *
Hold , McClctluml , Murdock and Joseph and
John Dleknon , were nt hand. Mr , Frick won
told to llo down on a louneo and after his
clothing hud been removed the wounds \voro

this tlmo thn wounded man was unlm , had a

bnlf hour after the shooting directed a mcs.

In which ho told him ho thought ho would bo

At Mr. Prick's request ill communication
with his residence was shut off nnd his
brothcr-ln-liuv wns sent to Inform Ms wlfo
of his llliuss nnd to reassure bar. She hnd a
son ton days ago nnd Is still confined lo her

herself Dravoly when told Unit thora wns no
apparent danger. She cent her sister , Miss
Chltds , lo the onico with instructions to
return nt once und Inform her of Mr. Frlck'j
actual condition. In the meanwhile Mr.
Frick was removoi to the back ofllo-i , where
the physicians mndo a careful examination ,
nnd at 4 p. m. tdo bullet was removed and
the wounded man was resting easy.
The news created intense oxcitcmont nail
telegrams poured In on Mr. Friclc from
pcoplo high and low from various parts of
the United States.
At no time did ho bollovoho bcllovo ho was
fatally injured nnd , after tha romoral ot the
bullets , to four of his stenographers ho di
rected Icttors undnskoJ his chlofs about the
condition of attain at Homestead and

Guards were placed at the door ? nt 12:15 : p.

Mr. Frlok refuse.1 nil medlelno until 5
o'clock , when ho was given n nodntivo nnd wns
aoon sleeping soundly. No 0:10 : was permitted
to see him for an hour bsforo his removal to
his homo , which took placa shortly nftor 7
o'clock. Dr. Lltchflold felt confluent- that
Mr. Frick would recover , although a son-
nuily Injured man , who'had baa a marvelous
escape from Instant death. His phislcians
announced on his arrival at his homo in the
east end that ho had stood the trip well und
showed no bud effcols from it.
At II o'clock ho vwas reported as resting
easily aud tbo doctors regarded his condition
of favorable.
Citizens Kxpross Thulr Indignation.
The news of tha attempted assassination
spread llko wild tire and la a few minutes
utter the shooting Fifth avenue to Wood
stroctvera black with poplo and the gro.it-
cst indignation was expressed at tbo cow
ardly deed. When the follow w.u brought
out of the building by the police oDlcors to
bo token to the central station crlos were
heard of , "Snoot him now I" Some growled.
' Lot him have what ho gave Frick , " whllo
a hotter clement stopped forward aua helpad
keep the assassin from mob violence. A
largo crowd followed the patrol wagon con
taining tbo prisoner to the central i-ollce
station und when the lock-up wai reached ,
the police were compelled to shut the gates
to the yard to keep out the pooplo.
The pri-ioner was so much exhausted trom
excitement that ho could not answer tno
usual questions for several minutes. Ho was
taken back Into the cell department and Inspector
specter M'cKelvie put him Into u citll.

When the prisoner recovered siittlclontl.v

Before Inspoctor-Kelvlo tssuod an order to
cxcludo all persons from the pollco station ,
except ofllocrb who were needed , Berkinun
was iislted by an Associated press reporter :
"Did you know Mr. Frlcki"
The prisoner replied : "Wo all know Mr.
Frick. "
When nskcii to toll \vhyho attempted the
murder , Berkmnn responded : "That's a
queer question to asu ; you know why. "
Then Inspector McKolvlo had the room
cleared In order to alMta the excitement und
refused lo allow auyono to talk to the pris
oner.
The pilsonor said ho was a Russian Jew
and had been In this country for sotno
years.
After the crowd had disappeared the pris

ber cartridges , some pieces of candy and a
nickel plated watch , nothtntr was found upon

own life , however , was developed later.

At S o'clock the prisoner , in charge -of
Superintendent O'Mura , Inspector McKol-
vie uud Detective ? Shore nnd CouUon , was
tauon to the gymnasium In the station yard
to bo photographed , SouttJd In the chulr ,
the only action of Iho .yo'iiig man that Indi
cated any nervousness was a peculiar move
ment of his Jaws. This aroused the sus
picion of 1'otlco Surgeon Mohcr , who after
wards made a search und found a small
shell In the prisoner's mouth. The do *
porato man refused to onan his mouth
und it was necessary to choke him
till ho was black In thu fuco before ho
would glvo Iho shell UP. It was taken to
the establishment of Arthur Kirk & Sons ,
where it was pronounced to bo a giant
powder cap of the same kind used by Ling ,
the Chicago anarchist , to kill blrnsolt. It
was considered a mlracio that Borkman was
not blown up.

Several persons said they rocoiriilzod him

nlno in all , but tnls romnnnt has b"3on swept

and the rest of them nro not dead vol.
( ilatlstona Alter UouvurtH.
Of course t.tio liberal-unionist se-
coders Jrom Mr. Glaustotu have
suffered , but not to the extent Iho
Gladstonluns anticipated nud hoped.
They have como back forty-six strong ,
objects of the most , fatherly interest , of Mr.
Gladstone. If ho could only win a dozen erse
so more to his side , what a buttress they
would bo to his rickety majority. Ho will
move hoavnu nnd ourtti to ncco nplUh this
result. I think I see a eoupio of doubtful
persons In this party , but the rest will stand
firm to their colors. Wllh 203 staunch con
servatives they will muko up a must formida
ble army.
The GludUonlans proper only number 274 ,
so that unionists h.iva no oauso to bs
ashamed of their muster roll.
There will bo many now focas In the

Seme excellent men have cone , many of
them specimens of the "flno old English
gentlemen1' line Sir Itiinuld ICnlghtly. The
drift of the times is against them , and tboy
cannot stand against the raging tulrof
democracy. With every House of Commons
henceforth the typo which stood Its ground
for so many centuries In Parliament will
become moro and moro rare. I merely point
out this fact without expressing an opinion
upon it. Tuo change bus become inevitable.
Whether it bo destined to wonc well or 111 for
thu country Is another matter.
Hag a UoulitTul Army.
Mr. Gladstone has lost soma of his sturdy
supporters , and their places have boon tnkon
by men whom ho most profoundly distrusts ,
and who look upon him as a played-out relic
of the past ; as a ourioilty of a remote era ,
fit only to bo labelled and put Into a
museum.
Tboy would not llko to get up In the public
mooting and ny so , but that Is the fooling
ot ninny of them. The old orJer Is chang
ing. Men who led the liberal part.x
ara no longer In touch with it.
Even Mr. Morley Is being rapidly
loft behind. U Is the old story. The ad
vanced radical Is very soon dlstancou by
sorao one moro advanced. The guillotine
which ho has so bravely used falls upon
his own neck. The new sohool of radical
will sweep nwny the old , and before many
yours arc over the glory of Burnes & Co.
will hnvo been UlmmoJ.
Cliitiuborliilii anil Cliurclilll ,
Who of all the men well known to the
public como back 10 Iho now parliament
much stronger than bo fore ) There is but
ono answer an J that Is Chamborlafn. Ow
ing to his superior powers of organization or
personal influence ho has carried every posi
tion. Ho hasovon enlarged his bordersso as to
include some of the midland counties. Ho Is
in a position In dictate bis own terms to
either Lord Salisbury or Mr. Gladstone , ana
In proportion as ho has grown , Lord Kin-
dolph Churchill has shrivelled and de
clined , llo decided to efface himself
from this contest , und succeeded onl.v
lee well. No ono thinks of him.
No one montlons-hls niireo. He has allowed
hi i old rival fa do all thu work and fill the
public eyes.
How stana mailers In consequence ? Cham-
borlnln occupied Iho whole foreground ,
whllo Churchill U absolutely out of
eight. Indeed , ovoryboily has dwindl
ed In comparison with Chamberlain.
Now whin u 111 ho do ) What sort of n
course does ho Intend to stccrt Shrewd und
crafty , ho U to bo master of many legions
before this "war of the nonunion" is over ,
and at the end the old tor.v party , oven the
modern conservative party , will require a
grant deal of looking before you will ho

PAUIS , July 33. | Now York Herald Cable
Special to THE Bus. ] The vacntlou which
the political world appears lo have boon tak
ing , nnd the consequent calm , has been
broken In upon by recent cvonts In Morrocco.
Several months ago I pointed out to the
readers of the Herald ihoaangor to the pence
of Euronj that was to bj npprohondcd from
that quarter. I was nol deceived.
England In January , 18VU , sip nod a treaty
with Spain and Italy for the apportionment
of Morrocco to tha exclusion of Franco *
Franco , however , has the right to bo con
sulted iu Moorish affairs , slnco Algiers
Is contiguous lo Morrocco. The French
diplomats said nolulng , but mndc n note of
what was being done. England did not dc-
slro to put into operation tbo treaty made
with the European powers , nnd so she tried
to tnko for herself ulono all Iho profit deriv
able. With this end in view , she sent to
Morrocco Sir Charles Evau Smith , charged
to conclude a treaty of commerce with the
sultan , but this treaty covered almost every
question , und If iho sultan slgnod it , Mor
rocco would bu placed virtually under an
English protectorate.
Armucd the Ilrltlnli I.lon.
Tbo negotiations , which lusted for several
months , toll Ihrougb because the sultan was
not willing to accord England the right to
establish stations upon Moorish territory.
All the Encllsh newspapers were furious.
They accused Franco of b Ing the cause of
this crushing blow lo English diplomacy.
It would not hnvo bjcn possible to have
talton Iho Engllslf auger seriously if Ihcro
had not come at the same tlmo the nowJ
that disturbances had broken out in
Morroceo and that Europeans were in
danger. Soon English Intervention became
necessary to restore order , and It looked us
If tha same blow would bo struck as hnd
been struck In Egypt. Intervention iu Mor
rocco "to ro-osUbllsh order" meant the
prompt bring ubout of the occupation of the
country , and a litllo nfter its annexa
tion would bo possible. Lara Salis
bury , who at this tlmo was
considerably hnmparod by the elections , yet
in spite of them wanted lo ma'.to a grand
coup In the Jingo line to demonstrate that
Iho consorvallvo party was very patriotic
and to causa a now embarrassment to Iho
"grand old mm. " A dispatch last ovonlng
states lhat Sir Charles Evan Smith had c. m
barked at Tangior.
Lot u ; sco if ho will return , which Is al
most cartulu if England does tbo least thing
in Morocco.
Frituco \ Au'.ilconod , T oo.
Franco will protect by every moans In her
power. If England should land ton man upon
the Moorish ojast , Franco will land twenty.
No mutter what happens , even should that
bo the immediate result , wo cannot permit
the repetition of the historic Egyptian ludl-
donl , and public opinion will foroo the gov
ernment into notion.
The Moorish question , without very much
disturbing the diplomatic world , yet gives
cause for serious rellootlon. It Is said that
England aid Franco will avoid as much as
possihld a conlllct , but it Is possible that we
may see a number of skirmishes.
Outsldo of this the European situation Is
ouo of tranqulllty. As Iho summer season
rolla on ibo governments of central Europe
ara very much exercised about It , and are
taking precautions ngatnst Iho invutlon of
cholera. It Is difficult to prevent the
ravages of this plague , which has mudo such
frighlful havoc In the south of Russia.
As to Iho conflict between Emperor Wil
liam and Prlnco Bismarck wo must wait for
the return of the kaiser from his whaling
expedition , to s'co what the news will bo.
Then most likely wo shall have a controversy
of u slormy character , the young sovereign
and his old chancellor being very much iu-
cones , iho ouo against the other.

'
WJISHINOTOX. D/C. , July 23. "Tho people
who will regret this most are Xho strikers. "
That is what n prominent democratic sonalor
said this afternoon when iho news Hashed ever
Ibo wlrea to-the capital that Mr. Frick had
been shot. Ho expressed what was iu every
body's mind ut tbo time. Everywhere , nlso ,
there were expressions of sympathy for thu
man Ihus murderously stricken down. But
few senators wore in tbo chumbar when the
news came of the shooting of Mr. Frlok.
They wuro deeply impressed , und some of
them w'lo have been foremost In the debates
which have taken place upon the subject of
the relations of capital and labor und the
Homestead troubles were plunged into a
thoughtful mood. It wus with a fooling of
rcllaf that they received the tutor dispatch ,
announcing thai Iho aot wai not committed
by any of the strikers , although nome of the
senators who sympathized with the latter
feared lhat Iho Utter organization would beheld
hold chargeable with ibo occurrence by many
people who jump at conclusions.
Senators were not dUpe od to discuss the
manor. The olfunt of iho news wus moro
noticeable in Iho house , for little attention
was puid to the current business.
The mum ben of the Homestead Investi
gating committee , who expressed themselves
for publication in regard to the effect ot the
tragedy nt I'itUburif , were very brief In
their uttoruncos. They preferred to wait
until they had hoard nil the funw In the cuso
before passing judinneut upon the case.
C'liili'iniui O.urb' Opinion ,
Hoprciontativo ( Jutes , the chairman ot the
committee , read the dispatches very cure *
fully and then said : "I regret very much
to hear of tha shooting. It adds to the corn ,

Brodorlck , nnothor-uiembor of the Investi
gation committee , recanted the shooting ns
very unfortunate , Indood. It wns hard to
tell whether or not the affair would huvo

no' , affect the laboring men's causa unless It
wns shown lhat the man who committed the
deed was connected with the laboring men's
organization. If Iho deed wus that ot an ir
responsible crank , ( ns Mr. Brodorlck be
lieved it to bo ) , it ought not to affect injuri
ously the causa of the laboring people , or
that nf any ouo cUc.
