THE DELHI RIOTS.

Business Entirely Suspended Because of the
Existing Disturbances
LONDON, Oct 9-Advices from Delhi say that
rioting continues there, and that business has
been stopped. The presence of the military
alone prevents bloodshed The situation, which
has grown out of religious rioting between Hin
dus and Mohammedans, is extremely critical.
Reinforcements have been sent here from Mee-
rut to help preserve order. The Mohammedans
last evening attacked small Hindu temple.
Hindus defended it. A desperate fight ensued,
in which Mohammedans triumphed. The victors
besmeared the temple with blood smashed the
idols and destroyed buildings. Twenty Hindu
were so badly wounded that they had to be re-
moved to hospitals, where they lie in critical
condition Troops are sustaining order to-day.
Serious riots prevail throughout the districts of
Jeypoor and Kattywar. The Bengal government
declined to interfere with native religious Gus
toms by initiating reforms looking towards
abolshing infant marriages and enforced widow
hood. The government insists that the question
of reform in these matters must for the present
be- left with the Hindus themselves.

THE PLOT TO BURN VIENNA.

Details of the Recently Discovered Scheme
for Destroying the Austrian Capital.
VIENNA. Oct 10-The Vienna police have
furnished the press with an account of the
recently discovered Anarchist plot to burn
Vienna. Although many details are obviously
suppressed, the plot is shown to have surpassed
in extent and diabolical ingenuity any dynamite
scheme hitherto concocted. Seven Of the con-
spirators have been arrested. An examination
of the prisoners shows that the plot was Matched
in and directed from America and London, and
was to be carried out by Viennese Anarchists
who recently returned from America. The plot
divided into several groups, one of which was
detailed to set fire to the town. another to take
charge of the dynamite operations. and another
to forge the necessary official documents to coin
money for expenses. Parties were detailed to
set fire to Penzing. Untermeidling. Hetzen-
dorf, Medling and Favoriten The police
got wind OF the plot and watched it until it was
almost mature. They received great praise for
their zeal and circumspsction. An Anarchist of
Prague gave the first information concerning
the conspiracy to the authorities. The plot
ters were mostly Czechs and Germans. They
held secret meetings in a taven at Penzing
where operatives were instructed in the use and
manufacture of bombs. The seizures include
numerous daggers and bombs, dynamite, fire.
bottles for firing buildings, printing and forging
implements, and variety of DISCUSSES, all of the
most ingenious character. One plan to obtain
money was by means of forged document to
brighten old ladies. at whose houses the plotters
would make a domiciliary visit under pretense
of searching for counterfeit money when they
would seize all the good money upon which
thew cOuld Law hands
