Washington, Special? A desperate hand-to-hand encounter with an arm ed Insane man who was dotertftlned to ?ee President JKooseveU ooourred in the vestibule of the White Houtje shortly before noon Mouday. The man who gave, his name as Peter Elliott, and bis home as Minneapolis, Minn.', was overpowered by the officers on duty at the White House entrance and carried to a police van which had been summoned. He wan placed Ju the van In the custody of two officers. Heed ing to realize that he was under arrcBt Elliott began a furious struggle with his captors for liberty. He drew a re volver from the right Bide pocket of his trousers and attempted to shoot Officer James Clsselt. The offlcor grab bed bis hand and winched the pistol from t*ia , grasp. Elliott's struggles were so fierce, however, that the two ?fficers In the cramped quarters of the ran were unable to overcome" him. Officer Cissell then drew his revolver and fired two shots to attract attenf tlon. Chief Usher Thomas Stone and Officer Parker,' of the Whlto House force, who had assisted In carrying El liott to the van, attracted by the shots, rdshed back to the vchlclo and assisted In overpowering him. in the struggle within the pollco van Elliott had broken a glass panel with his head, severely cutting his head and face. Officer Cissell sustained a uorlous cut on htB right arm. two in ches of fieah bolng cut out'-pf the fleshy part of the arm. He suffered considerably from loss of blood, but his Injury Is note serious. The van waHfhurricd to the emer gency hospltj^r where the Injuries vof both Cissell and Elliott were drcHBfd. Several days ago Secretary Loch re ceived a letter postmarked Washing ton and written on letter paper of the Saint James Hotel, this city. The let ter enclosed a photograph of Elliott and an Incoherent request for an In terview with President Roosevelt. The letter was signed "Peter Ell" and the statement was made Over the signa ture that the writer was registered nt the hotel as Peter Elliott. It was evi dent to Secretary l?rb that his cor respondent was Insane, and ho Issued, InstrnctionB at oncq that the officers on duty nt tho executive offices and White House should be on their guard against him. Tho photograph was turned over to tho secret service of ficers. Nothing wss seen of the man until Sunday, when the President at tended morning services at C.rnee Tie formed Church. Elliott appeared near tho entranco of thee hurch, and made an effort to speak to the President, but he was foiled In his endeavor by the secret service officers. At that time tho man manifested no symptoms of in sanity, and quietly left the vicinity of tho chupeTC when ordered to do so by tho officers. About 10 .o'clock this morning he appeared at tho executive offices. Entering the vestibule he in quired for President Roosevelt. One of the door keepers asked him why ho wanted to see the President. . "Oh, Just for fun," he responded. "The President sent for me, and I Just want to see him." Elliott was , told to return next month. He silled and walked away, not offering thfc slightest objection to the rebuff which he had received. His appearance attracted very llttl6 atten tion, and he gave no Indication at that time of Insanity.? For? dayfr both at the White House and executive of fices, however, the officers were warned to be on the lookout for the man. and not to take any chances with hlrfc. Shortly before 12 o'clock Elliott walked up to the main door of the Whlto H??80' stepped insbio, and In quired of Officer Cissell If he might see the President. Chief Usher Stone and Officer Parkor wcro standing Just within tho vestibule nt tho time. Mr. Stone told the man that he could not ?eo the President Just at tha moment as ho was engaged, but that be might possibly arrange to see him after a while. Instantly, the man having been recognized, a hurry call was scut for a police vanr Scarcely bad the can been afent In when Elliott became vio lent, The officers and attendants threw themselves upon him, and after a brief but strenuous struggle, overpow ered him. Officer Claselt made a curs ory examination of bis pockets, but found only a pair of shears and a largo pen knife. Elliott refused to leave the White Houro until he was forced to go. The officer* <?onveyed him to lh? police vnn, which by thnt time was Svaltlng at the southeast gate of the White House grounds. The struggle In the van occurred almost immedi ately after Elliott had beeu placed In the vehicle. He! drew his revolver from a pocket Which seemed to be an enlarged watch fob.
