MRS. M0NTAGU GUILTY.
Convicted OF Manslaughter for
Killing Her Little Girl.

Intense Feeling Throughout Ulster Over
tho Case. on Account of the Religious
Feeling That Has been Aroused.
BELFAsT, Feb. 25.-Mrs. Annie Mar
garet Montagu, wife of Mr.. Robert
Montagu of Coleraine, County London
derry, and daughter-in-law of Lord
Montagu, who on February 10Th was
held by jury as being responsible for
the death of her three years-old daugh-
ter, Mary Helen, was rearraigned for
further hearing to-day, The case has
excited the most widespread interest
throughout tho province of Ulster, and
considerable ill-feeling has been aroused
by the action of the Rev. Father Mac
Donald, the priest of Coleraine, who
declared from the altar on Sunday last
that Mrs. Montagu, who is convert to
the Catholic faith, was being prosecuted
because of her religious belief.
Ulster, as is wellknown, is the hot
bed of Professionalism in Ireland, and
many and bitter have been the struggles
between the Orangemcn and the Cath
olics. Father MacDonald's words, though
evidently made in good faith and for
the purpose of encouraging his unfortnn-
ate Pensioners, had a very bad effect
when they became known to the Protest
ants. They took special umbrage at
this statement that tho coronor's jury
was composed entirely of Protestants,
holding that if that was the case Protest
ants would have fully as much respect
for their oath as Catholics, and that the
evidence presented precluded the return
of any verdict other than that Mrs.
Montagu had wilfully caused the death
of her child.
The case has been discussed in every
light, and it is generally believed by
impartial persons that though Mrs.
Moatagu was unnecessarily severe in
her punishment Of the little girl, she
had no thought of inilicting bodily in
jury upon her, much less Of killing her
When the hearing was resumed to-
day, feeling for and against the prisoners
had reached such a stage that the judge
before whom the hearing was held had
taken alarm and deemed IL necessary to
forbid the admittance of the general
public to the court room. With all the
precautions to prevent violent out
break Of the popular fermcnt the court
was opened and Mrs. Montagu was
! placed in the dock. After the hearing
of the evidence of Miss Dozell, the
| governess, which was against Mrs. Mon
tagu, and the evidence of others, Mrs.
Montagu was found guilty of man
slaughter. The trial of Mrs Montagu
on the second count, cruelty to children,
was then proceeded with.

PLOr TO KIM TINE CAR.
The Conspirators Had Planned to Murde
Him at "a Funeral.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 29.-For some
time past it has been reported that
another plot against the life of the car
had been discovered and that q large
number of arrests had been made in
connection with it. Such reports being
far from rare, the news did not cause
the degree Of alarm which would arise
in any other country at the spread of q
report to the effect that the life of the
chief executive had been in danger. In
many of the alarming reports of the
nature referred to circulated here, the
police, it is said, have had hand in
originating the "news," but this time ii
seems there is no doubt that genuine
plot to assasslnate the car was recently
discovered.
The police profess to know absolutely
nothing about the matter, but from
other sources it Is learned that the con
spirators planned to murder the car
while he was on his way TO the fortress
Of st. Peter and st. Paul, situated on an
island in the river Neva, upon the
occasion Of the funeral, on January Goth
last, of the Grand Duke Constand. The
body of the Grand Duke was removed
OH lHc uu1 IblGGItu W IIDUl lHlS CITY u
the fortress mentioned, and was from
there deposited in the Cathedral of St.
Peter and ST. Paul, on the same island
which contains the tombs of all the
czars of Russia since Peter the Great
On the island are also situated the mint
academy of arts, u museum, 4 number
of barracks and an astronomical observ-
atory. Upon the occasion of the funeral
the car, Prince Oscar of Sweden, and
all the Russian grand dukes followed
the bier on foot, the czarina and tlC
grand duchesses following i'll carriages
The conspirators, it would seem, plan
ned to kill the car while he was on thu
way to the cathedral, but were ARRESTED
before they could carry out the plot. A
number of the military and .severa
naval officers, two of whom have sine,
committed suicide, are said to have beef
concerned in the conspiracy. Twenty
students, several minor officers of tn,
| government and number of other PEG
| pie are under arrest, charged with beini
concerned, directly or indirectly, will
the latest attempt TO kill the czar.
The news of the discovery of thi
| plot has been carefully kept from tn
ears of the czarina, whose health is sait
TO be so delicate that any severe shocl
might prove fatal to her mind, even i
it did not cause her death.
