MAKES DESPERATE EFFORT TO ESCAPE | KILLS POLICEMAN AND WOUNDS ANOTHER PURSUER BEFORE BEING CAPTURED. St. Petersburg, Jan. 10.—Lieutenant General Vladimir Pavloff, the military procurator or advocate general, gener- ally known since the days of the late parliament as “Hangman Pavloff,” from the epithet constantly applied to him by the radical deputies, was shot and killed at 10 o’clock a. m. while walking in the garden of the chief military court building, near the Moika canal. The assassin, who was dis- guised as a workman, was captured after a long chase through the crowd- ed city streets, during which he fired about forty shots from two revolvers which he carried, killing a policeman and wounding a small boy. The crime was executed deliberately and showed evidence of the same care- ful preparation which was character- istic of the murders of Generals Igna- tieff and Von der Launitz and un- doubtedly was carried out by the same organization, which, it is reported, has sentenced Emperor Nicholas and sev- eral of the ministers to death. The assassin, who wore the uniform of a military clerk attached to the court, succeeded in obtaining an entrance to the garden under the pretext of sub- mitting a report to the military pro- | B curator. He approached the unsus- pecting general within arm’s length, drew an automatic pistol and dis- [#4 charged the whole load, seven shots, into General Pavloff’s body. - Every shot was well aimed and two of them tore a gaping wound in his breast, from which the general expired while being carried to his apartments, which were located in the same building. Hastily slipping another “clip” of cartridges’ into his revolver and draw- ing a second weapon the assassin ran across the garden to the carriage en- trance, threatened the porter with his pistols and dashed down Glinke street, past the Imperial Opera House, with |§ a crowd of thirty house porters and court attaches in close pursuit. Desperate Attempt to Escape. A ‘policeman stationed in front of the opera house attempted to seize the assassin, but was shot down by the latter, who turned and opened fire on his pursuers, wounding a boy. The as- sassin then resumed his flight through the streets, firing at the police officers and house porters who attempted to bar his way. When his ammunition became exhausted he was intercepted and captured at Lantern lane. The entire career of General Pavloff was in the judicial department of the army. After serving several years as a military judge he was appointed Judge advocate general of the war ministry and later procurator of the supreme military court. General Pavloft sprang into national prominence when he was delegated by ‘War Minister Rediger to answer the interpellations of the government in the lower house of parliament in re- gard to courtsmartial and executions in the Baltic provinces and in Poland. The military procurator justified these with such cold bloodedness and disre- gard of the sentiments of the members that it caused the indignation of al- most the entire house and he was driven from the rostrum with cries of “murderer,” “hangman,” “assassin.” ‘When the general next appeared in the house he was not allowed to speak and was threatened with personal violence. When taken to the police station General Pavloff’s slayer was in the highest spirits, chaffed the investigat- ing officer about the inadequacy of the police protection and described with gusto how simply and easily his plan was executed, answering the officer’s questions with laughing jests. CUBAN ELECTION LAW. Committee on Revision Divided on Franchise Question.
