PLANS OF ANARCHISTS.
All the Cranks in the World to Assist in Over
throwing the French Government

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-The Herald prints
sensational story this morning to the effect
that tho Anarchist leaders in all parts of the
world are about to start social re olution,
with France as the basis of operations. E.
Ernest Mouchon. q friend of Marquis De
Mores. Is now in this country. the Herald
says, soliciting financial and ply sical sup
port. Johann Most has promised him all
the aid necessary. it is alleged. The story
goes on to say: I'M. Mouohon expects that
every revolutionIst In this country no mat
ter whether be be an Anarchist. a Nihiiist,
crat, will contribute literally. The money.
it Is said, will be spent on arms and ammu-
milton and for other purposes of legitimate
warfare. The indiscriminate use of dyna-
mite will not be sanctioned and no such
tactics as Ravachol resorted to Will be ap-
proved OF. If the revOlutlonistlsts find
that they cannot gain the day except by
force. they will take the arms of
soldiers and not of assassins. A
regular civil war is what they propose. and
they are confident that revolutionlsts of
every shade of opinion will subscribe
literally. The French army. they say, is
honeycOmbed with revolutionary ideas,
and when the day comes the soldiers,
when ordered to NOW down the rebels
will refuse as one man, and throwing
down their guns will march over to the
ranks of the insurgents The insurRent

socIallsric form of government just as soon
as 1t becomes evident that the people of
France are in favor of the change. For no

Revolutlonists are opposed to q republic,
and they profess to be quite as much opposed
to monarchy or an empire. An
archist leaders assume that the
lnsurGens army will be recruited
from the various countries of Europe and
the United States, because they believe
that. although revolutionists may differ on
minor points, they are practically unani-

concerned. Thus. lt is said, that though
