PLOTTERS RUN DOWN.

Conspiracy Against the RepuoHc Oh-
earth.d in Paris.
PARIS. Dec. 24.-It is positively stated
to-day that the government holds proof
of q Boulangist conspiracy to effect
revolution, involving the same plotters
as conspired for the destruction OF the
republic in 1883. From other sources
it IS learned that even more vigorous
measures will be taken now
than in 1883, and that President
Carnot and his ministers will show the
same energy in putting down the treas
enable Imperialist and Royalist plots
was shown in putting down Anarchist
outrages in the early part of the year.
The present attack on the government
is known to be part of an organized
plan for the overthrow OF the re-
pulic, and each step taken
is carefully discussed in adj
vance by the plotters against the
constitution. The evidence has arrived
at that stage when the government is
prepared to arrest certain of the con-
spirators against whom there is sufti-
Gent evidence. M. Andrieux, the ex-
project of police, is regarded as the
manager of the plot against the repub-
lie, and the first blow is to be struck at
him.
When warned that he would be ar
rested to-day, M. Andrieux replied: IL
have nothing to fear. If l am arrested
it will be to save M. Floquet from dis
grace and punishment. The govern
ment is seeking for clues to prove the
existence of Boulangist and Royalist
plot, and desires to make out that l am
implicated in it. It seems to me that
the real plot is altogether OF another
character. 1 have taken precautions so
that if go to the government dungeon
the public will know the real motives
for my arrest"
The precautions that Andrieux has
taken are, it is said, the deposit
with trustworthy parties in London OF
duplicates of all the documentary evil
dence which he has collected against
prominent republicans. This tact, how
ever, will not affect the action of the
government in the slightest degree, M.
Ribot's ministry being prepared, on the
one hand, to carry on to it's legltl-

of all connected criminally with the
Panama scandal, not shielded by the
lapse of time since the offenses were
committed, and on the other hand to
ferret out and bring to punishment all
who may be shown to be engaged in
reasonable conspiracy against the re-
public. The government has been
greatly encouraged by the en-
phatic vote of confidence in
: the Chamber of Deputies, and
will therefore take action more
promptly than was known to have been
| intended Friday afternoon. when it was
announced in these dispatches that sit
is also suggested, on usually we'll in
formed authority, that the ministry will
have some revelations to make in re-
gard to the course Of the enemies OF the
republic that will divert attention in
j some degree from the Panama scandal y
+! The victory of the government in the
| Cham Der OF Deputies has spread gloom
and CONSERVATION among the enemies
of the republic, and they are much less
aggressive in their utterances to-day
| than yesterday. The threat of prosecu.
, ton, too, is having it's effect and express
sions of avowed and open disloyalty to
the Republicans are very infrequent.
Whether the alleged plotters have given
up their schemes or not they give less
public evidence of their aims.
