A CABINET COUNCIL.

Surprise in London Over tho Nature of
 To-Morrow's Meeting,
 LONDON, May 22.-Considerable sur prise was manifested at the announce ment that a Cabinet Council had been called for tomorrow and much spec ula- tion was rife as to the character of the matters, the importance of whose dis cussion inhuenceR the Governments nasty action.
 It was subsequently, given out that the council was called for the purpose of discussing the situation with regard to the Irish legislation before the House of Commons, and the practicability of modifying the compensation clause of the Local Taxation bill.
 The Star, in it's comments on the sudden summoning of the council, ex- presses its belief that the Government is becoming alarmed at the growing opposition to its leading measures, and thinks it is not unlikely that the present agitation against the Land Pur- chase bill will end in the withdrawal of the measure, if it does not result in a dissolution of Parliament One, if not both of these events, is certain.

DismantIing of . British Ship Win be
 Considered an Act of War.
 OTTAWA, May aa.-somewhat of panic took possession of the heads of the Government here when telegraphic in formation of the character of the in structions issued from Washington to the Captain of the revenue cutter Bear reached them.
 The impression here is that unless secret instructions have been or are to be furnished to the captains of the cruising fleet ordered to Behring Sea, interpreting for them the limits of their activity against British sealers in Bshring Sea 1n 'a sense contrary to their previous understanding of those limits, serious trouble is likely to arise.
 Any dismantling of 8 British vessel outside the admitted three mile juris- diction, or seizure of her log book or lading of seal skins will be regarded by our authorities and people as a virtual act of war against friendly power, and will change the whole character of the situation, which up to the last day or two was considered to wear an en- couraging and promising aspect.

EXPOSED THE PLOT
An Alleged Conspiracy to
 Found a New Republic.
GENERAL OUTLINE OF THE PLAN
A Band of Filibusters Employed by Eng
 Gshmen to Capture Lower California

Scheme to Seize . Mexican MAn-os-
 War and Mexican Oncials-Anuexation
 to the United States the Object-A
 Lobby Working at Washington for the
 Company's Interests.
 WASHINGTON, May 22.-A dispatch from San Francisco says a sensation was caused by the publication of an article giving complete details of an alleged conspiracy to capture Lower California and to found an independent republic, to be followed by annexation to the United States.
 A number of prominent capitalists interested in Lower California lands and mines, and well-known citizens of Los Angeles and San Diego are involved. San Diego appears to have been the headquarters of the flibusters.
 The general outline of the plan, it is claimed, was for tho Mexican Land and Colonization Company, composed of wealthy Englishmen owning conces- sions on the peninsula, to place in the italist $1OO, 900 to be used in advancing the interests of the flibusters. The large warehouse of an English company at Ensenada was to be filled with arms, ammunition, and provisions, for the use of the revolutionists.
 The officers of the English company claim that the policy of the Mexioa n officials in Lower California has been ruinous to the land interest of the com pany which has been obliged to expend thousands of dollars in protecting its interest, and the salvation of the com pany, they assert, finally depends upon securing the annexation.
 A lobby has been working at Wash ington in the company's interest, but as the prospects of congregational action were unfavorable, 6libustering expe- dttion was fixed upon. Two proposi- tions were discussed. One was to cap ture Ensenada; tho other was to intro duce 6 large number of Americans on the peninsula, ostensibly as railroad laborers, to capture the Mexican man. of-war pemocarta, and at the same time give picnic in honor of the Mexican officials, and in the midst of the festivities capture the garrison and seize the roads and telegraph lines.
 Simultaneous risings at Alamo and Tia Juana were to take place. Several meetings of the conspirators took place, and at one of these facts became known to a newspaper man. When the peninsula had been seized a provisional government was to be declared on or about August 1, and martial law was to be enforced. The land of the peninsula was to be nationalized, and, a peaceful order of things secured, negotiations for annexation to the United States would follow. The names of the pro <sctors are given.

 There had been an arrangement be- tween them for seme months, but when Mrs. Masterson heard of the shooting affair she started East in the hope of effectirg a reconciliation with her hus- band and also for the purpose of seeing again her 14-year-old son, who was with his father. On arrival she wrote MT. Masterson. requesting an interview. There was no response. She wrote again, with tho same result.
 Though her health had always been good, the excitement and grief drove her into 8 condition of nervous prostra- tion. She called upon Dr. Adams, an old friend, and talked with him of her troubles. The doctor accompanied her back to her hotel, and just as she was entering the elevator, she placed her hand over her heart and fell to the floor dead.
 A telegram was sent to MT. Masterson and he was soon at the hotel. The body was removed to an undertaker's estab- ment, and when Q reporter called there he found exJudge Masterson sitting with bowed head beside the casket con taining tho body. He seemed overcome by his emotions, and would utter not a word to anyone.
 Coroner Jenksns will make an autopsy. He says there is no doubt that it is a case of broken heart if there ever was one.
