    II HUNG WOUNDED
Attempt To Assassinate the
Chinese Viceroy.
fibot in the Face in a Street of ftlnio
noseki by a Young Japanese-The
Man Seized and Disarmed by the
Police—Li's Wound Said To Be
Not Dangerous.
London, March 25.—The Central News
Correspondent in Tokio says that an at
tempt was made to assassinate Li Hung
Chang in a street of Simonoseki yester
day afternoon. Li was returning from
the peace conference, in which ho con
ducts negotiations in behalf of the
Chinese mission, and was accompanied
by several of his suite. When he was
n short distance from his apartments a
young Japanese ran up to him and fired
u pistol in his face. The young man was
seized and disarmed at once by the
police. At the station house he gave his
name as Koynma and his age as 21. Ac
cording to the short report received in
Tokio, Li's wound is not dangerous.
Regret on Every Bide.
The attempt to assassinate the repre
sentative of the emperor of China caused
the most intense excitement, and on
every side there were expressions of deep
regrot. Count Ito, tho prime minister,
has visited Li Hung Chang and expressed
to him his sympathy and regret. The
peace negotiations which were conducted
here were only opened after Japan had
dismissed the Arst emissaries sent by
China on the ground that they were not
vested with full powers. China then
sent Li Hung Chang to Japan with cre
dentials that were amply satisfactory to
her enemy. The sitting opened Saturday
and Prime Minister Ito and Foreign
Minister Mutsu were on hand to repre
sent the Mikado.

The News in Washington.
Washington, March 25.—The news of
the attempt upon the life of Li Hung
Chang created a profound sentation here.
Diplomatic circles were so stirred up
about it that the various troubles which
have lately beset the state department
were wholly lost sight of. On every
hand profound regret was expressed
that Japan's progress should be cheeked
in such an unfortunate manner, par
ticularly at this time. There seems to
be no doubt, according to soverul state
department officials, that the attempts
ut assassination will hurt Japan and help
China accordingly. The person of the
envoy of China's emperor was sacred,
end such an attuck upon him is a most
heinous offense in diplomatic eyes. It
matters little whether it be the result of
a man's disordered brain or not, Japan
must answer for it not alone to China
but to the other nations to whom China
Is most certuin to appeal.

are the Holland diamond cutters. A

Cried Bitterly When Speak
ing of William I.
Celebration of the ex-Chancellor's
Eightieth Birthday Begun—Depu
tations from the Landtag and
Reichstag Visit Friedrichsruhe—
The Kaiser To Call To-day.
Friedrichsruhe, March 26.—The cele
bration of the eightieth anniversary of the
birth of Prince Bismarck, which occurs
oft April 1, may be said to have begun.
Three hundred and ninety-two members
of the reichstag and the Prussian diet
came here yesterday afternoon to con
gratulate the great ex-chancellor. Re
plying to the congratulation of the Prus
sian landtag, Prince Bismarck said:
Cried Bitterly.
"Accept my warmest thanks for tho
honor you have rendered me. It is to me
the highest distinction to see such a noble
assembly united here. I should bo
ashamed if the honor was not for the work
I have done, not for my person only. The
credit for the political results achieved I
shared with those co-operating with me,
who are now dead, and above all with my
greatly worshipped good master under
whom I worked so long." Here the aged
ex-chancellor stopped speaking and cried
bitterly, the assembly in the meantime
being greatly affected.
Praise for Prussia.
Regaining his composure somewhat,
the prince resumed his remarks in a
voice choked with emotion. "What," ho
said, "could I have done without his aid
and that of his powerful army? I would
have stuck in the same bog that frustra
ted all previous attempts at German uni
ty. Our dynasties, thank God, are still
powerful in their countries (cheers), and
especially the king of Prussia is able to
put a powerful army into the service of
national interest. This was my aim at
Frankfort-on-the-Main and I have al
ways followed it since.
Best for the People.
"Thanks to our Emperor William 1.,
and his federated sovereigns, more was
done than any diplomat could do. If tho
emperor had not ordered the mobilization
of the armies in 1866-70, what would
have become of Germany? The dynasties
fought harder with each other than any
of the parliamentary factions fought.
Among the parliamentary factions tho
discussion is deeper and more heated,
and common action seems excluded.
Federal governments prove to be better
for the people than parliamentary fac
tions. With federated governments na
tional interests are always above ull other
considerations."
The Emperor's Visit.
The emperor's visit to Prince Bis
marck to-day will assume the character
of a special military honor to the old
chancellor, llis majesty has ordered a
company of infantry, a company of pio
neers, a squadron of the Wandsbeck
hussars, and a battery of artillery, all
with colors and bands, to be in readiness.
They are to assemble at Friedrichsulie.
Tho emperor will alight from his special
train at Aumeuhle and place himself at
the head of the troops, which will march
to the castle. Tho emperor will be ac
companied by Gen. Bronsart von Schel
lendorf, minister of war, and the mem
bers of the military household.
