Archduke Francisc Ferdinand, heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, and his wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, were shot and k**ed by a Bosnian student here today. The fatal shooting was the second attempt upon the lives of the couple during the day, and is believed to have been the result of political conspiracy. This morning, as Archduke Francis Ferdinand and the Duchess were driving to a reception at the Town Hall a bomb was thrown at their motor car. The Archduke pushed it of with his arm. The bomb did not explode until after the Archduke's car had pa**ed on, and the occupants of the next car, Count von Boos-Waldeck and Col. Morizzi, the Archduke's aide de camp, were slightly injured. Among the spectators, six persons were more or less seriously hurt. The author of the attempt at a**a**ination was a compositor named Gabrinovics, who comes from Trebinje. After the attempt upon his life the Archduke ordered his car to halt, and after he found out what had happened he drove to the Town Hall, where the Town Councillors, with the Mayor at their head, awaited him. The Mayor was about to begin his address of welcome, when the Archduke interrupted him angrily, saying: "Herr Burgenmeister, it is perfectly outrageous! We have come to Sarajevo on a visit and have had a bomb thrown at us." The Archduke paused a moment, and then said: "Now you may go on." Thereupon the Mayor delivered his address and the Archduke made a suitable reply. The public by this time had heard of the bomb attempt, and burst into the hall with loud cries of "Zivio!" the Slav word for "hurrah." After going around the Town Hall which took half an hour, the Archduke started for the Garrison Hospital to visit Col Morizzi, who had been taken there after the outrage. As the Archduke reached the corner of Rudolf Street two postal shots were fired in quick succession by an individual who called himself Gavrio Princip. The first shot struck the Duchess in the abdomen, while the second hit the Archduke in the neck and pierced the jugular vein. The Duchess became unconscious immediately and fell across the knees of her husband. The Archduke also lost consciousness in a few seconds. The motor car in which they were seated drove straight to the Konak, where an army Surgeon rendered first aid, but in vain. Neither the Archduke nor the Dutchess gave any sign of life, and the head of the hospital could only certify they were both dead. The authors of both attacks upon the Archduke are born Bosnians. Gabrinovics is a compositor, and worked for a few weeks in the Government printing works at Belgrade. He returned to Sarajevo a Servian chauvinist, and made no concealment of his sympathies with the King of Servia. Both he and the actual murderer of the Archduke and the Duchess expressed themselves to the police in the most cynical fashion about their crimes. ------------------------------------------------------------ ARCHDUKE IGNORED WARNING Servian Minister Feared Trouble if Heir Went to Bosnia Special cable to THE NEW YORK TIMES [Dispatch to The London Daily Mail.] VIENNA. June 28 - When the news of the a**a**ination of the Archduke Francis Frerdinand and the Duchess was broken to the aged Emperor Francis Joseph he said: "Horrible, horrible! No sorrow is spared me." The Emperor, who yesterday left her for Ischi, his favorite Summer resort, amid acclamations of the people, will return to Vienna at one, in spite of the hardships of the journey in the terrible heat. The Archduke, who was created head of the army, went to Bosnia to represent the Emperor at the grand manoeuvres there. This was the first time the Archduke had paid an official visit to Bosnia. The Emperor visited the provinces immediately after their annexation, in 1908, and the manner in which he mixed freely with the people was much criticized at the time, as those in his party were always afraid lest some Slav or Mohammedan fanatic might attempt at the monarch's life. The Emperor's popularity, however, saved him from all danger of this kind. Before the Archduke went to Bosnia last Wednesday the Servian Minister here expressed doubt as to the wisdom of the journey, saying the country was in a very turbulent condition and the Servian part of the population, might organize a demonstration against the Archduke. The Minster said if the Archduke went himself he certainly ought to leave his wife at home, because Bosnia was no place for a woman in its present disturbed state. The Minister's word proved correct. The people of Sarajevo welcome the Archduke with a display of Servian flags, and the authorities had some difficulty in removing them before the Archduke made his state entry into the city yesterday, after the conclusion of the manoeuvres. In these manoeuvres were the famous Fifteenth and Sixteenth Army Corps, which were stationed on the frontier throughout the recent Balkan war, and they carried out the evolutions before the Archduke.
