Italian Anarchist Slayer of Carnot Identified in France
A 23 year old Italian anarchist named Casario Santo Veronimo has recovered enough from the blows he received after assassinating President Carnot to be recognized. French authorities have taken a photograph of his features. He was born in Italy to poor parents and educated by reading. He was previously imprisoned in 1892 at Allan for distributing anarchist pamphlets among troops and moved to France near Lyons in 1893. Authorities believe he had possible accomplices, though he claims to have acted alone.
