AFTER THE PRINCE OF WALES

Story of nn Alleged Plot to Murder Him in
America
New YORK; March 26.-A morning paper,
in a two. column article with glaring head
lines. claims there is an anarchist threat
to assassinate the prince Of Wales should
he visit America. The story Roos thst
efforts are being made TO induce the prince
to visit America and that he has
looked with favor upon the idea.
II IL quite possible the prince will te the
guest Of William Waldorf Astor in his trip
across the Atlantic. Ii is believed Astor
will charter either the Majestic or the
Teutonto in case the prince decides to 40
and thence to Chicago by special train by
way of Canada. The principal design,
the paper says. in the princes visit
to Canada is to use his presence Ms q
check to the annexation sentiment. The
article continues: major Charles Fox Bill
army officer of Canada, recently wrote Sir
Julian Pauncefote, stating he has accurate
information Of an extensive anat chist plot.
in which leading friends Of the red flag Of
determination in the United States
and Canada are concerned, and
prince to America will see that it ends in
his murder. Such a letter ordinarily would
meet with scant courtesy at the hands of
Sir Julian, who would believe il the work
of crank. but this he took to be startling
news not from a crank. and immediate
the English foreign Office. The result
was widespread consternation. Cablegrams
long and coRsnt passed between the British
embassy at Washington and the London
foreign Office. The crime. Major BillinQs'
letter says. will be committed in the United

be accomplished whom tho prince is in

The Youngest Grandson Of the EN-
peror Of Austria May Sue
ceed Him.
Francis Joseph Much Displeased
Over the Actions OF His
Brother.
The Tender Infant Would Suit Austria and
Hungary Better Than tho Aroh-
duke Charles LOuts,

LONDON. March 26.-Reports from Vienna
are to the effect that Emperor Francis
Joseph. of Austria, has been of late not
only much displeassd. but also very ssri-
ously concerned by the attitude tnken by
his brother. Archduke Charles Louis, and
the latter's wife, in matters both of domes-
tic and foreign policy. The arohduke, who
has hitherto been regarded as heir pre-
sumptive to the throne. and his wife, the
Archduchess Marie Therese. are both IN ost
biQoted and narrow minded in all matters
connected with religion. Among other
things. it is said they have given mauifesta-
tions OF undiaguised hostility to Austria's
ally, King Humbert, OF Italy.
The birth of Arohduchess Valerie's little
boy is regarded by many Of those who are
considered authorities in matters apper-
tanning to Austrian history TO have affected
the succession to the throne OF Francis Jo-
ssph. The emperor has now what may be
described a. direct male issue in the person
OF his youngest Rrandohild. Tho latter is
born an Austrian archduke, differing there
in from the sons of the emperor's eldest
daughter, Gisella, who are born Bavarian
princes. their father being son of the
prince regent. No one knows exactly, save
the emperor and one Of hia most trusted
councillors, what the precise terms of
the law are which govern the
succession to the thrones of
Austria and Hungary. They are
kept profound secret and the minister of
the imperial household has. on assuming
Office to take a special and cast-iron oath
not to divulge the slightest information in
connection herewith. The mystery on the
subject dates back to the days OF the father
Of Maria Theresa. When he died without
children of the male sex IL was the son Of
his only daughter. Maria Theresa, who ulti-
matelv succesded to the throne under the
title of Emperor Joseph II. This. of course,
may be repeated on the death of the pres
ent emperor.
No official intimation or announ cement
OF any kind has ever bean made of the en-
or the latter's'aon. Archduks Francis Ferdi-
nand. as destined to succeed him. Their
losition as hsir-apparent and heir-pre-
sumptive. respectively, to the Austro-Hun-
Ra1ian throne. has been based until now
merely on popular belief. and not on any
official or authoritative declaration. II il,
therefore, quite possible that Francis
Joseph, finding that his brother is deter
mined from conscientious aud bigoted
motives, to undo everything that he him
self has labored to effect, and to inauRurate
q reactionary policy calculated to sndsnper
the dynasty Of HapsburR, has decided to
designate as his successor the eldest son of
his daughter Valerie. a choice which would
be more popular in every way. both in
Atohduke Charles Louis. whose advent to
tho throne 10 regarded with feelings Of uni
vsrsal apprehension. both at homo and

BERLIN, March 2G.-Aooording to the
Vossische ZeitunR. a syndicate has acquired
from Herr Dove Of Manneim. the tailor, his
bullet proof cloth invention. Herr Scarned.
a civil engineer. of Vienna. claims the in
vention 10 reproduction of his impenetra-
BILE armor. which has been patented in
every European country. This armor, it
may be stated. was tested in the presence
OF number of military attaches and re-
ported useless. Scarned's armor was OF
knitted hemp on which was placed a layer
Of compressed cotton. The material was
then subjected to hydraulic pressure and
strengthened with thin steel bands, and the
whole covered with cloth. This armor was
certainly bullet proof, fattening as IL did
the lead bullets fred at 1t. It's rejection by
the military authorities was due to the be-
lief that 1t could not form a part of a SOL
diet's equipment in active service. Tailor
Doves bullet proof cloth is reported to be
an improvement on Sosrned's armor and

1t Is Likely to Involve That Country in

KINGSTON, Jamaica. March 2G.-Another
long warfare between President Hippoly te's
government and the factions opposed to his
rule is now threatened. The insurgents
have crossed from the Dominican frontier
into Hayti and n battle has already been
fought. This new movement is likely to
cause trouble with Sar Domingo and possi-
bly, war. Should the present insutrection
be quelled a protrncted struggle is the pres
ent outlook, owing to tho mutinous and
unsettled condition of the country. The
reported battle is said to have been deci-
sivs one. but tho result is not atated. As
the news comes from Port au Prince, the
seat of Hippolyte's government. the infer
enoe desired to be conveyed is that tho
authorities were victorious. This state
ment must be taken with considerable al
