\ MONSTER SCHEME TO RAISE THE CABLE,
DECLARE WAR AND GET RICH on WHEAT
MARGINS.
4 New York dispatch of the 20th
inst. says for four days past rep
resentatiyes Of the New York
Herald have been at work developing
conspiracy, Of which they have had in
timaton, the effect of which would be
to almost bankrupt the country. With
i'll Il week the Herald has received an
explicit statement Of the essential
points i'll Il conspiracy of grain men
whereby AN immense and sudden fluc-
tuauon in the market prices was con-
templated. The conspirators number
about twenty, who between them have
raised about 100000 to effect the con-
summation Of their plans. The leader
Of the gang IS an eX-operator on the
New York board of trade, who was
twice expelled for good reasons, tho last
charges being of Il grave character. He
is II man wholly INSCRIPTIONS, who will
hesitate at nothing. Shortly after the
inauguration of the Turko-Russian war
he set his wits to work to secure pile
on the rises of wheat and through 9TH
or parties succeeded in making quite Il
sum during the excitement When
peace was announced, he saw his
chances for honest speculation nippedi in
the bud. 1t was then he set about per-
fecting plan he had conceived. Ittooli
some time to secure the right co-conspi-
rators and it was not until quite recent
~ that the organization was completed.
The plan is simply this: A chart,
showing the exact location of the At
lantic cables, is TO be stolen from the
government documents and the parties
will then proceed to poi"t designated
probably off the coast of New Bruins
wick-ano then, having supplied them
selves with the proper appliances, will
proceed to raise the cable. This DONE
they will proceed to Tap that useful coil
and insert wire of their own, which
will be manipulated by m operator in
the boat. In this manner all the cable
Grams from the old world will be inter
cepted, and those of no consequence
sent i'll to their destination. In the
meantime other members Of the organ
ization are quietly buying wheat, botf
on the New York Board and on the Chi
eago Exchange. They have 50 man
aged it that there does not seem to b'
an excessive demand. On April 10Th
these dealers are to stop buying and OF
that date ii was the plan of the conspir
itors to begin sending kilograms tina
would Indicate war disposition on tn
part Of England. On the second .
third day the thing was to eliminate Il
an open declaration of war OH the par
of England, with immense preparation
for the afiray. 1t was anticipated tina
this would run the demand for whea
no to an unprecedented height, whe
the dealers could discreetly sell and RI
alizc millions.
