PARIS, March 31. A special dispatch
rrom Rome says that Giuseppe TosU
e?-Preslde"t Roosevelt's assailant on the
steamer Hamburg, emigrated from Italy
to New York with his son. The latter
was deported as a (dangerous character,
and Tosti appealed to the White House
to have the order of deportation rescinded.
ne appeal was not answered at first,
but finally TosU was informed that
President Roosevelt could not Interfere.
According to the dispatch TosU then de
cided to rejoin his son and embarked
on the steamer Hamburg by chance.
Being under the delusion that the ex
President wished to harm his son, the
sight of Mr. Roosevelt drove him into a
frenzy.
The authorities at Naples will take
charge ot Tosti on tho i
