IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSEI
Washington, March 4.-The Senate, a few
minutes before o'clock this morning,
agreed to conference report on the
Copyright bill which practically abandoned ths
Sherman amendment and returned closely to the
original House measure. The vote on agreeing to
the report was % TO 20, many of the Democratic
opponents of the House measure being absent,
with enough Republicans changing from the op.
position TO carry through the compromise adopted
by the conferrees.
The final conference report was presented, read
and explained by Mr. Patt He said it was the only
agreement that could be reached and that a fail.
urc to agree to it would be equivalent to a defeat
Of the bill. If the report were agreed TO- it would
provide that books which were on the free list
under the Mckinley bill two copies) could be im-
ported free of duty. 1t left out Mr. Shermans
amendment. 1t left every one at liberty TO i'm
port two copies of foreign book by paying the
duty them, and it left newspapers and maga-
zines to be imported provided they did not contain
copyright matter. That was all that there was
TO the agreement and it took the place of all that
the Senate had been quarrelling about
The Senate then agreed, by the vote indicated
above, TO abandon the Sherman amendment.
Mr. Sherman said that, in other words. the
Senate confcrrees had surrendered what had been
twice voted for by decisive maiorities of the Sen.
ate lie mentioned the fact that contrary TO
parliamentary usage, a majority of the Senate
conferccs had been made up of Senators opposed to
the action of the Senate on the bill That was q
peculiar organization of conference committee.
Tie effect of the proposition, il now stood, was
10 make copyright an exclusive monopoly. 1t also
took the heart and life out .of the ingalls,
amendment If The London Times" contained
chapter of a book copyrighted in the United
States. that paper would be excluded. And
to magazines. The report did not remove his
objection TO the bill, and he would vote against
IL.
Mr. Hscoc the second conferree, defended the
report, and Mr. Gray, the third conierree, stated
the reason why he had not signed II.

Thrilling Stories of Wrecks and Disasters
t-. in France.
PARIS, Nov. 1.-The recent gale
caused an immense amount of damage
in all parts of France. Many temporary
buildings, devoted to panoramas, cir
cuses and the like were destroyed.
Two persons were killed at Pnvilly,
near Rouen, by falling debris. A youth
had his neck broken at Havre by being
struck by the covering of a van, which
had been blown off by the gale.
Several wrecks occurred at Fecampe,
on the English channel. The rescue of
the crews was attended with thrilling
scenes Only one man was drowned.
The fishermen along the coast suf-
fered heavy losses in boats and
gear. Two smacks of Cherbourg,
with their crews, numbering ton men,
are missing. A hospital at Lorient took
fire during the gale and the flames
spread with such rapidity that the or
dinary means Of exit were cut off and
the patients had to be rescued from the
windows. Many of the patients were
injured. The force of the hurricane
extended as far as Marsailles on the
Mediterranean sea. At Dunkirlk dy-
Mantle vessel which had been abandon
ed by her crew drifted from her moor
ings and sank.

LONDON, Nov. 14.-A widespread con-
spiracy to create representative as
sembly has been discovered in Russia.
Moscow was the center. The authori-
ties, through the espionage which pre-
walls throughout Russia, were able to
learn who the conspirators were, their
places Of meeting and, in fact every
thing connected with the plot While
secretly pursuing their Investigations
in St Petersburg they found that the
conspirators in that city were only q
part of a very numerous band, the
headquarters OF which was located in
Moscow. They learned, also that the
conspirators had been very active in
drawing adherents to their plan, and
that the conspiracy had ramifcations
which sprend to oil the principal cities
of the empire.
The object of the conspiracy just un-
earthed, unlike a majority of the plots
discovered in Russia, was not to kill
the czar, but was the organization of a
movement having for its end the ere.
alton of a representative assembly-an
object which has been the dream of
many Russians for years. Sixty mem
bers of the nobility and of the upper
and middle classes, who are charged
with completely in the conspiracy, have
been arrested.
The discovery of the plot and the ar
rest of so many prominent subjects
have caused decided sensation in

NEW YORK, Nov. IA special cable
dispatch to the Herald from San Saliva
dor says a conspiracy to assassinate
Gen. Antonio Ezeta, the minister OF
war, the navy and the interior, and
brother of Gen. Carlos Ezeta, president
of Salvador, has just been discovered
in the City Of Santa Ana The chief
conspirator is Gen. Maxine Salguero.
His crime is all the more unpardonable,
as he owes his life to the clemency of
the brother of the man whom he had
plotted to kill He was convicted by q
council of war, after the last struggle,
and sentenced to be shot, but was par
doned by President Ezeta. Several
arrests have already been made and
others are likely to follow. The
method to be employed was poison.
A revolutionary movement was discov-
cred and defeated by the government
at Starosa, a town in Honduras. 1t is
supposed to be connected with the plan
to assassinate Gen. Ezeta.
