VIENNA. Sept. S.-The arrest Saturda,
of fourteen anarchists here, and the cap
ture yesterday Of sixty-eight members Of &
secret society at B.uenn, the capital Of
Moravia has revealed the existence Of &
widespread anarchist plot.
Today seven more members of the sans
were taken into custody, and the proof
against all the persons arrested is said tc
be overwhelming. All the persons arrested
are known to be anarchists o. the worst
type. Among the mass Of papers seized
were documents showing beyond a doubt
that the members Of the club were affili-
ated with Bohemian secret society known
as the "Omladina."
The police got an inkling Of the existence
of the conspiracy through n brawl that &C.
CURED between a number nf anarchists and
certain advanced socialists, the trouble
assist in causing explosions. The clue thus
gained was closely followed with the result
that the anarchists who were masQuerad-
ing as members Of a literary society were
captured.
1t is charged that the Czech agitation in
Bohemia and the consequent suspension Of
the constitutional law in Prague and the
towns In the vicinity had much to do with
the existence Of the plot. although there Is
yet no evidence to connect any of the Czech

take advantage Of the political turmoil In
Bohemia to start a campaign OF terror
against the government
Among the men arrested Is q leading man

and an anarchist named Stulka, who Is
well known to the police. Stulka Is a skill
full mechanic.
In addition to the papers seized, the police
took possession of a number Of bombs
Some Of these were made Of tin. An exam
nation Of the contents revealed that they
were charged with ecrasite and picric acid.
a large, finely finished steel bomb was also
found. This contained liquid that has not
yet been analysed An oblong tin box was
found. the contents of which were appar-
emily intended to have been exploded by
electricity. Conducting wires were attached
to the box. which contained several glass
plates and small quantities of ecrasite and
picric acid.
When the prisoners were searched by
thu police II was found that inside the lin

strong plated wires with hooks at the
ends IL is surmised that these were de-
vices to allow of the suspension of bombs
In StuIka's room were found rolls of zinc
and lead and glass and metal cylinders.
The police declare that the conspiracy
plot the anarchists have ever concocted in
Vienna. Every one of the men arrested
had in his possession bombs or cartridges
that were ready for use.
The discovery has caused much excite

searching in every direction for other men,

bitter attack upon President Cleveland as a
man who had no collegiate or other train

Mr.. Cameron then proceeded to address
the Senate. reading his speech rather isp-
idly and in low tones. But Senators from
both sides Of the chamber got seats close
to him. and listened with evident interest
and curiosity. He declared himself Cp-
posed to the repeal bill. and said that his
vote against II needed no defense. The
burden Of proving their case rested on the
supporters Of the bill The Sherman act
had in no way, he said, injured The state
Of Pennsylvania, and its repeal would be
injurious as contracting the currency.
At the conclusion Of Mr. Cameron's re-
marks the Senate was addressed by Mr..
Bate (Tenn.), whose speech will be found
elsewhere.
