Paris, Jan. 21.—The report from Rio de Janeiro of an anarchistic plot in connection with the American fleet appears to be another chapter of a weird story which has obtained much circulation ‘here. A few people have treated this story seriously, others re- sarded Jt as fantastic, while many have dismissed the whole affair as a nyth. However, as a matter of abun- dant precaution, the essential points of the story were made known through official channels to the authoritiés at Washington and Rio de Janeiro and out of this doubtless the action of the Rio de Janeiro police has grown. The story in brief, as given by those re- sponsible for it, is substantially as follows: “A young man of good family restd- ing here claims to have' overheard snatches of a telephcne conversation in which vague references were made to the cruise of the American fleet and of plans concerning the - fleet which were being hatched at a cer- tain cafe. Being of a Sherlock Holmes disposition the young man communi- cated his information to an American official in Paris and also established a surveillance of the cafe. It is claimed that the observations at the cafe dis- closed several suspicious characters holding mysterious meetings. Their movements are sald to have been traced and their plans in part learned as to the shipment of explesives to Brazil.” Give Color to the Story. Meantime the official to whom the young man had confided the secret made inquiries as to the shipment of explosives to Brazil. This inquiry ap- peared to glve some color to the story, for it showed that a small steamer discussed by the suspects had actually sailed from a North German port with certain boxes which were at least open to suspicion. It is claimed that the testimony of the men who loaded the boxes was secured and that it shows they contained explosives. The destination of the steamer was.Rio, where her arrival early in December also was established. It further ap- pears that the plotters designed to plant submarine mines off Esclave island, at the narrowest point in the straits of Magellan, using the island as thelr base of operations. The exist- ence of the island at this polnt in the straits, where the current runs al- most ten miles an hour, was duly verl- fied. How the explosives were to reach this island from Rio is not dis- closed. h These fantastic details were re- ceived with incredulity in most quar- ters, but as stated the precautionary step was taken to acquaint the au- thorities at Washington and Rio de Janeiro of the general character of the story. This has brought about much' cabling, during which the Bra- zlllan authorities have ‘been advised with a view to their taking any pre- cautfonary steps deemed desirable. It is this precaution, doubtless, which has led the Rio police to take action as to supposed “anarchists,” although the anarchist phase appears to have been overlooked by the ingenuous per- sons responsible for the story here. DOUBTED AT WASHINGTON No Credence in Report of Plot to Blow Up Battleships. ‘Washington, Jan. 21.—The reported plot to blow up one or more ships of the Atlantic battleship fleet at Rio de Janeiro {s regarded at the White House as a repetition of one of the many schemes which are constantly being presented to the secret service agents of the government by-persons who claim to possess information which they are®willing to part with for a consideration. No credence s placed here in the existence of an actual plot. It is understood the in- formation originated in Paris, from which point it was communicated to the secret service bureau of the treas- ury department and through that me- dlum. to Admiral Evans and the au- thorities of the South American coun- try. Official Decislon on Hugging. ‘Washington, Jan. 21.—An officlal ruling on the subject of hugging has been handed down by the postoffice department. It is that hugging a per- son, even if done without pulling down the blinds, is no cause for dis- missal from the government service. It is decided, however, that the girl must ‘be a sweetheart and must con- sent to be hugged. The case was that of Willlam Belleman, a Kansas rural carrier, on whom complaint was made. Fighting Wealthy Woman’s Wil La Crosse, Wis., Jan. 21.—Notice of contest has been flled in the probate court of La Crosse.county of the will of Mrs. Mary P.

RADICALS ARE HONORED. Unprecedented Action Taken by Ger man Government. Berlin, Jan. 21.—Among the names of those gazetted for decoration on the anniversary of the first corona- tion of a king of Prussia as German emperor are several of the leading Radical members of parliament. The recognition of Radical politiclans in this way is almost without precedent and it ¥s regarded as an indication that the government is planning to hold the Radicals to the coalition formed by Chancellor von Buelow in 1906. The men to be honored include Herr Kaempf, second vice president of the reichstag; Herr Muensterberg, brother of Professor Hugo Muenster- berg of Harvard university; Herr Gyssling, a young member from Koe- nigsberg, who defeated the Socialists in a hard "contest, and Professor Eickoft Wiemer, who has come to the front recently as an energetic speaker in defense of the reichstag coalition. There is considerable dissatisfac- tion In the Radical constituencies over Chancellor von Buelow’s declaration concerning the Prussian election sys- tem. Meetings have been held in the provincial cities at which resolutions were passed against the Radicals sup- porting the chancellor in the imperial parliament so long as he refused to support the idea of election reforms in Prussfa. FURTHER CHARGE MADE. Minneapolis Man Accused of Attempt- ing to Bribe Witness. 8t. Paul, Jan. 21.—Another serious charge was preferred against Sher- man S. Smith, the Minneapolis poli- ticlan, when the government, in a sup- plemental afidavit by George J. Ham- mond, asserted that he had ap- proached the latter before he went on the stand for the government:in the case against the Wood brothers et al. and had asked him “how the sum of $10,000 would look to him,” presum- ably for the purpose of influencing his testimony in favor of the defendants in that case. George W. Armstrong, attorney for Mr. Smith, brands the latest develop- ment of the contempt proceedings of the government against Smith and the two jurors, E. C. Benedict of Sabin, Clay county, and Lyman G. Bacheller of Madelia, charged with improper conduct in discussing the case against the alleged officers of the Wisconsin Grain and Stock company with Smith, as being ridiculous. Taking of testimony in the contempt case has begun before Judge Morris in the federal court. REMARKABLE CONFE§SION Bank Dobbers Say Sleeping Cashier Told Combination of Safe. " Jackson, Miss., Jan. 21.—A unique confession has been made to A. F. Thomason, cashier of the First Na- tional bank of Hattiesburg, by James Harper and W. T. Smith, bank rob- bers, - brought back from ' Seattle, ‘Wash., where they were caught. Harper, says the bank cashier walked in his sleep. He and Smith watched the bank for several nights, according to their confession, and fre- quently witnessed Thomason enter with the aid of his doorkey. They never dreamed that he was not in full possession of his senses until they saw him under an electric light with his eyes closed. - 5 i Then the robbers say they cof- celved a plan {o enter the bank with ‘Thomason ang to gag him if he came out of his trance. They declared that Thomason gave them the combination to the safe, which they looted, and that they left leaving Thomason asleep in the bank. FIVE OF THE FAMILY DEAD Remaining Two in a Dying Condition From Poison. Chicago, Jan. 21.—A special to the Record-Herald from Rockdale, Te: says: i Five members’ of the family of seven of C.

CRITICISES GORTELYOU. y Senator Tillman Gets After Secretary. of the Treasury. ‘Washington, Jan. 21.—An animated debate occurred in the senate in which Mr. Tillman "~made many comments upon what he termed the failure of the secretary of the treasury to obey the resolution of the senate calling for informatfon concerning’ the recent issue of Panama canal bonds. Mr. Aldrich, upon entering the chamber, explainied that the delay in the secre- tary’s response to the resolution had resulted from the necessity of mak- ing a'full statement of all the reasons that had influenced the ‘secretary and that that had taken more time than had been anticipated. He assured the senator that’ the information Wwould be -forthcoming . and spoke in. high terms of the ¥ecretary of the treasury. "PARADE OF UNEMPLOYED, 3 B 2 Thousand Men March Through Streets :.of New Britain; Conn. Nef ‘Britain, Conn., Jan. 21.—Over 1,000 unemployed workmen 'paraded through the sdtreets of this city, the leader carrying a banner bearing the -inscription “Parade df hungry people looking for work.”' It was explained by some of the leaders of the demon- stration that ‘“hungry” in this case meant' that the men were hungry for something to .do, not'that they were suftering from the pangs of physical hunger. Poles, Germans, Lithuanians, French and Italians comprised the ma- jority of the marchers.: Seeks Republican Nomination. St. Paul, Jan. 20.—Attorney General E. T.
