LIFE ATTEMPTED
HITLER IN DANGER.
THE LATEST INSTANCE.
PLOT BY FORMER CHAUFFEUR. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received May 27, 10.20 a.m. LONDON, May 26. Herr Hitler’s sensations would be unenviable if ho learned that the London insurance brokers estimated the premium against his assassination at 60 guineas per cent., says the NewsChronicle. Frequent visitors to Berlin continuously hear three or four circumstantial accounts of torture and injustice, invariably accompanied by details of the latest attempt on Herr Hitler’s life. One well authenitiented recent instance was carried out by a former chauffeur of Herr Hitler, who knew the route by which the Fulircr travelled to a certain town. Ho planned with accomplices to adopt a method of murder popular on the Continent, that of stretching a steel wire between two trees at the exact height of a man’s neck when travelling in Herr Hitler’s car, but shortly beforo Herr Hitler appeared the assassins were caught.
