AN UNEASY HEAD.

Another Plot TO Assassinate the Gar OF
Russia said to Have Been Discovered.
sT PETERSBURG. March 2 For somo
time past IL has been rumored that an
other plot against the life OF the czar
has been discovered and that large
numbe Of arrests have 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 ut the spread OF
a report in 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 a
hand In originating the news" but
this time there seems to be no doubt
that genuine plot TO assassinate the
Gar was recently discovered. The
police profess to know absolutely
nothing about the matter, but from
other sources it is learned that conspir-
ators Planned TO murder the Gar
while on his way TO the fortress Of st.
Peter and st. Paul situated on an is
land in the river Neva, upon the cccar
of the Grand Duke Constantine, uncle
of the Car The body Of the Grand
Duke was removed on the day referred
TO from this city to the fortress mem
toned and was from there deposited in
the cathedral of St Peter and St Paul,
on the 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, a
musuem, number of barracks aud an
astronomical observatory
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 grand
duchess following in carriages The
conspirators, 1t would seem, planned to
kill the car while he was on the way to
the cathedral, but were arrested before
they could carry out the plot A num-
Der OF military and several naval Of
ficers, two Of whom have since COM
mitted suicide, are said TO have been
concerned in the conspiracy. Twenty
students, several minor officers of the Z
government and a number Of other
people are under arrest, charged with |
being concerned. directly or indirectly, /
with the latest attempt 10 kill the czar. |
The news of the discovery OF this /
plot has been carefully kept from the
ears of the czarina, whose health is I
said to be so delicate that any severe
shock might prove fatal 10 her mind, |
even il it did not cause her death.

CHICAGO, Oct. 17.--Columbus week In
Chicago is certain to eclipse anything
ever before seen here in theway of decora-

Hirtorically, it will be more accurate
than the New York celebration, which
was held according to the old style calen-
iously decided to omit from the program
certain features which caused such delay
in the night parade In New York.
Acceptances to the invitations sent out
give assurances that there will be pres
ent President Harrison's Cabinet. Vice
President Morton, the Supreme Court of
the United States, the foreign diplomatic
corps, almost the entire Senate and

Conflicting Stories as 90 His Health
Probably WIN Not Speak.
Boston, Oct. ia Washington spe-
cial to the Journal says: Conflicting
stories come here from New York city as
TO the condition OF the health of Mr..
Blaine. One statement is that he will
make no moro speeches In the campaign
because his physical state will not per-
NIT him to do so. This story goes that
Mr.. Blaine's condition Is much more SER
ious than had been reported. He spoke
ut Ophir Farm with difficulty, and, al-
though his remarks were brief, he read
them from Manuscript, contrary to his
usual custom.
Mr.. Manley and other members OF the
national committee are reported as say
ing that Mr.. Blaine will not make any
more speeches. They think that the one
he has just made is sufficient to vindi-
cate his enthusiasm for the ticket, and
that, brief as IL was, il will do much
good. Mr.. Blaine, they say, is interested
In the success OF the Republi ticket
as much as he ever was, and that his
friends will have no excuse for remain
ing away from the polls on election day.
The other statement whicn comes from
a gentleman who saw Mr.. Blaine at
Ophir Farm, is q much more reassuring
one as To the condition OF the distin-
guished invalid. This gentleman says
that Mr.. Blaine Is in much better health
than had been expected and that there is
a good deal of the old time vigor about
him.
Those who were predicting that ex-
Secretary Blaine would not return to
Washington, which has been the see ne
of so much sorrow for him, and that he
would spend the winter in California
were mistaken.

Mr.. Reid said that Mr.. Blaine intended
20 go to New York today TO meet Mrs.
Blaine st the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where
they had engaged rooms for their stay in

TO Ophir Farm, ms there was nothing to
call him back. From New York he would
