Attack on a Prince

Warsaw, Aug. 20.

A soldier in the corps of engineers, who had been sentenced and was under arrest, entered the fut of his colonel, Prince Nicoll Tumanoff, shot him in the lungs and shattered the princess's leg. Officers rushed in and killed the assailant with existence of an urgent situation, Canada should forthwith take substantial action commensurate with Canada's wealth. The memorial also exhorts the Government consult the Opposition with a view to obtaining that end.
