Show ATTEMPT ON LIFE OF FRENCH. Lord Lieutenant of Ireland Is Fired Upon From Ambush. Dublin. A determined but unsuccessful unsuc-cessful attempt was made Thursday to assassinate Viscount French, lord lieutennnt of Ireland. The attack evidently had been most carefully organized at a spot in a narrow, nar-row, winding road with high walls and hedges, affording the assassins good hiding places. One of the attacking at-tacking party was killed and a detective detec-tive seated with the chauffeur of the viceregal car was slightly wounded in the hand. Viscount French was not injured. Some distance away a policeman po-liceman patrolling his beat was shot in the ankle. |
