MURDER ATTEMPT ROOSEVELT
FAILS; 'ASSASSIN CAUGHT
Late yesterday afternoon the
Nome Nugget received a wire
thffu the Associated Press Service
from Miami, Florida, stating that
an attempted assassination of
President-elect Franklin D. Roose
velt had failed. We had already
printed the Dally Bulletin but the
sensational character of the news
necessitated the reprinting. Only
meagre news was published in the
first news flash, but today we re
ceived the following details of the
attempted murder and the subse
quent wounding of several per
sons.
Miami, Fdb. 16. (A>)—A would
be aesasein fired into Che party of
President-elect Roosevelt here to
night and injured Mayor Anton
Oermak of Chicago. Roosevelt
waa not Injured although about
five or Mx shots were fired.
Mayor Cermak was standing SO
■=p feet from Roosevelt on the streets
of Miami when the shooting occur
red. Mrs. Joseph H. Oil! of Miami
wife of the president of the Flori
da Power and Light Company was
also injured.
MIAMI. Feb. 15. (A3)-—A gun
man .who “hate*” all government
officials tried to assassinate, the
incoming president Roosevelt, taut
night failed, as the five shots he
fired at ruck five other persona,
on# of whom wae Anton Cermak,
Mayor of Chicago. With an old
fashioned 32 revolver Guiaeppe
Zingara shot wildly into a crowd
gathered about the auto of Roose
velt, in the picturesque By-Front
Park, Just as ha'concluded • brief
speech. .
The bullet which struck Cer
mak lodged in the abdomen, but
an operation is deemed unneceo
aary, unless hie condition becomes
worse. Physicians report he has
a little better than n fifty-fifty
chance of living, although hie con
dition is not Immediately critical.
Shocked and atartled by the gun
play, Roosevelt waited to pick up
Mayor Cermak a$£ speed him to the
hospital. He then turned to visiting
the ofher victims of the would-be
assassin's cupidity. Roosevelt can
celled hie train departure for New
York last night until today.
Confusion prevailed tor a few
minutes as the .crowd milled about
the secret service and the police
pounced upon the gunman. Many
women screamed. Looking . back
from his ear Roosevelt waved re
assuringly to 'the crowd and told
those near, "Tell them I'm all
right." He went a1>oard his yacht
■ and issued a statement: "I'm deep
ly moved by the serious injuries
inflicted to my friends, and am
remaining In Miami uaiil morn
ing. I am entirely unharmed."
President Hoover at Washing
ton^ communicated ‘Together with
every other cltlsen in the United
: States, I rejoice that you are not
injured, and dhall be grateful to
rou for news of Cermak's condi
tion". Roosevelt replied: "I appre
ciate your message; Cermak Is
resting well now; I will wire you
more when I go to the hospital
. in the morning."
• The examination of the swarthy
complexioned. and etoekily-bullt
biller by the secret service, brought
S'disconnected and weird story (bat
he had purchased the pistol in a
pniwn shop three days ago for 98.00
He told them he intended to kill
President Hoover but when be read
that president-elect Roosevelt was
coining here he decided to give
his attention to him. When asked
If (he intended to kUl Roosevelt ho
said "Tee; and I'm eorry I didn’t.
I would kill all presidents and all
officers. I like Roosevelt personally
but I don’t like presidents.’’ A char
ge of assault with intent to mur
der will be filed against Zangara

gee In connection with the wound
