for killing of innocent people at the jail

PLOT AGAINST NICHOLAS.
Tunnel Built in Warsaw to Assassin
ate Russia,s Emperor.

Tunnel Built in Warsaw to Assassin
ate Russia's Emperor.
Warsaw, Sept. 29.-Though an official
denial will be forthcoming, it has Leak
ed out from official circles in such a
manner as leaves no room for doubt
that there was a deliberate and deter
mined plot against Emperor Nicholas
at the time of his recent visit to this
city. It's success was only frustrated
by accident.
Several weeks before the arrival of
the imperial party a number of per-
sons supposed to belong to the German
Socialist party undermined Norvy
Swat, the principal street in Warsaw,
between the governor generals palace
and the royal castle.
AS the tunnel, which had been under
taken from the cellar of a beer house,
approached completion the conspirators
became apprehensive of a collapse of
the roadway, and called in several Po-
lish masons to build supports. The ma
sons, whose suspicious were aroused,
notified the police, and 1870 arrests fol-
lowed.
Among those in custody are four dis
guised German officers, either on leave
or belonging to the landwehr, which
had been active in the actual work of
tunneling. A number of merchants and
manufacturers from the town of Lodzy,
Poland, are also implicated.

THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON.
Omcials Believe the Change VIII Re-
suit In Benefit to Cuba,

Officials Believe the Change VIII Re-
suit In Benefit to Cuba.
Washington, Sept. 30-The news of the
Spanish cabinet crisis was brought to
the attention of the officials of the
state department and diplomatic Of
fcials through press dispatches from
Madrid. 1t is surmised that Minister
Woodford's failure to cable the depart
ment was attributable to the fact that
it was after nightfall in Madrid before
the news became known. It cannot be
said that the event caused surprise
among the officials of the state depart
ment or among the members of the
diplomatic corps in Washington.
High officials in the administration
expect that Liberal cabinet, under
the leadership of the veteran Sagasta,
will be erected on the ruins of the Az
carraga cabinet. If this should be the
case the future is held to be full of
promise for Cuba, for it is recalled that
the Liberals have not hesitated to ex-
press their opposition to the great ex-
penditure of human life and vast treas
ure in the effort to carry out the re-
pressive Conservative program for the
conduct of the war. 1t is not believed
that the Liberals are prepared to go
to the length of promising freedom for
Cuba, but from the expressions of the
leaders of the party it is hoped that
they are willing to grant so liberal a
measure of home rute and autonomy
to the island that of Spanish sover-
eighty nothing would remain save a
spread in the way of a few preferential
duties, and perhaps the power of APP
pointing some officials corresponding to
the governor general of Canada, named
by the British crown.

eral Marcelo de Azcarraga; foreign af-
fairs, the Duke of Tetuan; marine,
Rear Admiral Don Jose M. Beranger;

liano Linares Rivas; colonies, Don To-

General Azcarraga in a long inter
view with the queen regent yesterday
explained the situation. 1t is believed
that he asked her majesty if she was
ready to confirm the government in
necessary powers in view of the at
titude of the United States. After the
interview he summoned the cabinet.
The meeting was attended by Senior
Reverter, the communicated minis
ter of finance, and Senior os-Cayon,
minister of the interior both of whom
rendered their designations. Shortly
afterward the premier rendered the
resignation of the entire cabinet.
United States Minister Woodford, the
Duke of Tetuan and the president of
the senate, the Marquis Paxo de la
Merrzed, held long conference yes
terday, and General Woodford present
ed to General Azcarraga the members
of the United States legation. Owing
to the cabinet crisis the Cuban pour

DOINGS IN NEW JERSEY

Ocean Grove, Sept. 27.-Edward M.
Fielder, one of the pioneers of this
place and prominent Republican poll
tician of Monmouth county, died at
$3.50 p. m. today of heart failure and
Bright's disease, in his AID year, after
an illness of about one month.
Bridgeton, Sept. 27.-George Coopbs,
a farmer of Shirley Salem county, was
gored by boar on Saturday, and it
is feared his injuries will terminate
fatally. The boar got out of the field,
and when Mr.. Coombs attempted to
drive it back it sprang upon him,
knocking him down and ripping him
with its tusks in a terrible manner
Trenton, Sept. 2S.-vice Chancellor
Reed yesterday made an order for the
release from the Camden county jail
of Albert L. Haines, provided he fur
nishes a bond of $1,000 not to leave the
state. Haiues has been in Jail one year.
About ten years ago he was ordered by
the court to pay his wife alimony. Soon
afterwards he left the state, and failed
to pay the amount required. When
he returned to New Jersey he was ar
rested.
Lambertville, Sept. 27.-Edward b.
Holcombe's barn, at Mount Airy, about
four miles from here, was totally de-
stroyed by fire last night, together with
the contents. The barn is only about
a mile from Niece's sawmill. the scene
Of yesterdays fire. The origin is I'M
known, but is supposed to have been
the work of tramps, many of whom are
holding forth between this city and
Mount Airy. The farmers in the vicin-
ity are greatly exercised over these
fires, and are stirring themselves to
action.
Mays Landing, N. J., Sept 25.-The
case of Robert Hibberd, the young
man who was on trial for shooting
Mrs. Phoebe Phillips in Atlantic City
on Decoration Day, and who was on
Thursday married to the woman he at
tempted to murder, was submitted to
the jury at 10 o'clock yesterday fore
noon. After celebrating six hours
they returned a verdict of acquittal.
The verdict was a surprise TO all pres
ent. Mrs. Hibberd, nee Phillips, drop
ped in a faint when the verdict was
announced. The defense was emo
tional insanity.
Jersey City, Sept 2S.-New Jersey is
today holding a special election for the
purpose of enabling the people Of the
state to vote upon three proposed
amendments to the state constitution.
The principal amendment provides
against gambling, pool selling and
bookmaking. One of the others per-
mits women to vote at school elections,
and the third prohibits the governor
from appointing ad interim any person
whom the senate has refused to con-
Arm. There is no strong organized
movement against the amendments,
and their passage is very likely.
Lambertville, Sept 27.-Neilson M.
Doane, aged IS years, living about
seven miles above here, weary of life,
took about three teaspoonfuls of paris
green yesterday afternoon. from the
effects of which he died about four
hours later. After committing the act
he informed his family, who immedi-
ately summoned physicians. They
worked with him for several hours,
but without success. He had been sick
about year, and said he was tired of
life. He was sawyer by trade, and
had not been considered mentally right

forum was packed to its utmost ca
pacity. Shortly after o'clock Senator
Platt, accompanied by Mrs. Platt and
was loudly cheered.
The temporary officers were made
permanent, and after the adoption OF
the platform District Attorney OlcotI
presented the name of Benjamin F..
Tracy for mayor. Mr.. Worth named
Seth Low. Tracy had 297 votes and
Low 40.
Then the other nominations were
rushed through, and a committee ap-
peared with the candidate for mayor,
who made a speech of acceptance, in
the course of which he said: eff my
candidacy be the means of bringing
about the desired union shall rest
content. If, however, the spirit of har-
mony and Cancellation which we thus
invoke does not prevail, propose, hav-
ing accepted this nomination, to make
the fight to the end
None of the defeated Low men have
expressed an intention to bolt the regu-
lar ticket The Citizens Union sew
eral days ago announced that the with
drawal of Low was out of the question.
and the Republican committee at the
same time presented an ultimatum to
the effect that Low was not acceptable
to the Republican organization. The
Brooklyn committee of so and the
Purroy Democracy are still loyal to
Low. A union of the anti-Tammany
forces seems now unlikely.

Sick poison is poison which makes you
sick. 1t comes from the stomach. The
stomach makes it out of undigested food.
The blood gets it and taints the whole
body with it. That's the way of it.
The way to be rid of it is to look after
your digestion.
If your food is all properly digested,
there will be none left in the stomach to
make sick poison out of
1t your stomach is too weak to see to
this properly by itself, help it along with a
few doses of Shaker Digestive Cordial.
That's the cure of it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is delicious,
healthful, tonic cordial. made OF pure
medicinal plants, herbs and wine.
It positively cures indigestion and pre-
vents the formation of sick poison.
