PREMIER STRUCK
PREMIER ON WAY
TO VISIT HOUSE
Delav in Work of Peace Conference
Forecasted as Result of Attempted
Assassination of Clemenccau
Was Work!na On Treaty.
, PARIS, Feb. 19. Tho Amerlcair
delegates to the peace conference,
when they learned of the attempt
upon Premier Clemenceau's life to
day, began to consider the effect of
tho event upon their own plans In
connection, with the conference. On
the assumption that the official re
ports minimizing the nature of M.
Clemenceau's injuries were correct,
the belief was expressed that there
would not be any great delay In the
execution of the comprehensive plans
laid out for the proceedings of tbe
peace conference during the absence
of President Wilson and David Lloyd
(Jeorge, the British premier.
Premier Clemenceau. when he was
shot, was on his way to a conference
with Colonel E. M. House, of the
American peace delegation, and Ar
thur J. nalfour, tbe British foreign
secretary. An -. Important- question
was to have been taken up concern
ing more rapid procedure before the
supreme council.
Owing to. the fact that If. Clemen -
cenu had in hand personally certain
subjects now under negotiation, it as a dangerous anarchist, according) sociotcd Press that Premier Clemen
follows that so far as these are con- . to a Central News dispatch from ceau rushed up to the assassin nnd
cerned there must be a suspension ot
activity for the time being. These
subjects related to consummation of
an early treaty of peace.

SEVEN SHOTS FIRED

Is Captured Bv Police One Bullet Enters Right Shoulder. Lodoinn
Unnder Leqt Shotder. Missinq Sninal Cord Two Others Strike Arm
and Hand Two More Pass Thruugh Clothes.
PARIS, Feb. 19 Georges Clemen
ceau, the French premier, was struck
three times by bullets in an attempt
to assassinate him today. One bullet
entered the right shoulder and lodg
ed under tbe left shoulder, missing
the spinal cord and the lungs. - Tbe
other two bullets caused scarcely
more than abrasions of the skin on
the right arm and the right hand.
In all, seven shots were fired at
the premier point blank by the assas
sin, Emile Cottin, known in anarchis
tic circles as "Milou," who was ar
rested directly after the shooting.
Two bullets passed thru the clothing
of the premier.
LONDON. Feb. 19. Premier Cle
menceau will be up In a day or so.
Andrew - Bonar .- Law,-; government
spokesman, announced In the bouse
of commons today.
f - LONDON. Feb. 19. Cottin. who
snot Premier Clemenceau, is known
Paris. When questioned, Cottin took
an responsibility for the shooting of
the premier.
The physicians in attendance on
Premier Clemenceau say that the
bullet entered tbe premier's left
shoulder and had been located in the
region on his right shoulder. The
bullet has not yet. been removed. Al
tho the premier coughs a great deal,
there Is no evidence of blood from
the respiratory tract.
Heports Contradictory
' PTARIS, Feb. 19. First reports of
the incidents of the shooting were
contradictory, especially as to wheth
er the premier was Inside or outside
his automobile when the shots were
fired. It seems to have been estab
lished, however, that M. Clemenceau
was already in hisautomobile. . The
car was turning a corner of the Rue
Franklin into the Rue del Essert
when a man standing on the sidewalk
jumped toward the door ot the auto
mobile and fired several times.' One
of the bullets penetrated the interior
of the car and struck the premier in
the right shoulder. The premier had
tried to open the door ot the car
when the first shot was fired, and it
was while he was thus engaged that
the bullet hit him. His chauffeur,
Brabant, also was slightly wounded.
Thus three of the assassin's bulets,
it appears, took effect, one upon the
premier, another upon the chauffeur
and the third upon Policeman Gour-
sat, who was one ot the police agents
who guard the premier. "
It was in the struggle with the as
sassin that the police officer was
wounded. Meanwhile, the premier
had' stepped out ot his automobile
and walked into his house.
The actual arrest of Premier Clem
enceau's assailant was made by Po
lice Agent Labaugh. He also made

AGED STATESMAN
AUTO AT RESIDENCE
PARIS, Feb. 19. Gcorso Clemen-
conn, IVnnee's nscd but vicoroua pre
mier, was shot and sliirhtlv wounded
tins morninz as he was entcrins his
automobile for a drive.
Five shots were fired bv the as
sassin, and it wns at first reported
that the premier had been wounded ,
in the head. It developed Inter, how
ever, that the wounds were in M.
Clemenceau's back and shoulder and
he apparently is not dangerously
hurt.
Five Shots Fired
The shootinc took place at 8:55
o'clock this mornimr as the premier
was leaving; his house . in the Ruo
Franklin to ao to the war office. The
assassin was an . ordinary lookiue
man. dressed as a workman. Five
shots were fired, of wliieh one, took
effect. in the premier's shoulder; Tho
nssailnnt was nrretscil.
Policeman Gonrsnt, who was
wounded in the risht eve. altliouali
not seriously, bv one of the assassin's
'shots, told a representative of the As;-
erappled with him.
The premier's wonnd is not rcsnrd-
eil us danserous in itself, but it is
felt that there might be serious eonse
ouenees from it. considering the asa
and infirmities of the victim.
At about 11 o'clock this mornimr..
however, it was officially announced
that M. Clemenceau was not seriously
wounded.
' Think Assassin a Russian
It was learned nt the citv hall that
the assailant of Premier Clemeneeau
was a man named Emile Cottin, 25- '
vcars-old and born at Creil. The man
said his home wns in the Montrouse
Qiiurter of Paris. . The police, how
ever, do not believe the miners ha
possesses belonir to him nnd are in-'
elined to think him a Russian. He is'
fair with Ions Iisht hair anl is tall of
stature.
One of the witnesses of the shoot-'
ins, Henrv Moulin, a barber's assist
ant, told the Associated Press repre
sentative that when he heard the first
shot fired he believed it was the
Americans firinsr in the air "as t,hcv
are in the habit of donm," he said.
Moulin rushed out of his shop when,
he saw what was luippenini;, however,
ervinir "thev have assassinated Clem
enceau." He closed with the pre
mier's assailant, Moulin added, anil
the man threw nwnv his revolver and
held up his hands,

secured the assassin he wns beaten bv

crowd seemed to wish to help the pre

him badly.
According to Policeman Gonrsnt
tho assassin entirely emptied K

the bullets.
