Special Dispatch to The Call.

PARIS, Oct. 14.-It is announced here
this morning that a military plot
against the Government has been dis
covered. The Rappel, Aurore and Pc
title Republique Franchise publish al
most Identical stories on the subject.
1t appears that the plot was discovered
by a general holding an important po-
sition. The plotters were to have taken
action on Saturday, during the alb
sence Of the Minister of War, General
Chanoine. 1t further appears that
when the Government was warned of
the plot the Ministers were not sur
prised, having already obtained infor-
nation regarding the conspiracy.
The Matin says the plot was not in
favor of one of the pretenders to the
throne of France, who has been talked
about for some time, but was only for
the purpose of changing certain Off
Gals of the Government without touch
ing the President
The Premier, NJ. Brisson was among
those who were not surprised when no.
tilted of the plot. He promises to take
action in the matter.
The Government officials here refuse
to furnish any information regarding
the discovery of the plot, but it is ru-
mored this afternoon that the conspi-
racy involved Prince Louis Bonaparte.
a colonel Of Russian Lancers, in whose
favor his elder brother, Prince Victor
Bonaparte. recently resigned the lead
ershlp of the Imperial party. 1t is

were also made to compromise General
Zurlinden, the military Governor of
Paris, who, for a short time, was Min
lister of War
According to the Jour, the rumor of
the plan arose from a forged letter pur-
porting to have been sent by General
Boisedeffre to General Zurlinden, con-
tanning the words: Let US be ready
for Saturday"

FOR TEN THOUSAND
DOLLARS DAMAGES

James Moore, marine fireman, brought
suit in the United States District Court
yesterday against w. P. S. Porter, mas
ter, and Edwin L. Griffith and others,
owners of the whaling steamship Jessie
H. Freeman, to recover $4,000 damages
for breach of contract and his consequent
suffering. The complaint alleges that
on December 5, 1893 Moore shipped as
fireman on the whaling steamship Ma
varch for a three years cruise in the
Arctic, the contract specifying that he
was to be returned to San Francisco al
the expense of his employers on the ex-
ptration of his contract. Moore was sub
sequently, with his consent, transferred
to the Freeman, and at the end of the
three years term for which he had
signed articles he requested Master Por-
ter to release him and forward him to
San Francisco in compliance with the
provisions of the contract. Porter de-
clined to do either and kept Moore prac-
ttcally a prisoner on board the Freeman.
The ship was wrecked in the Arctic, and
Moore was rescued by the United States
revenue cutter Bear

SAGASTA AND COLLEAGUES
ARE GREATLY CONCERNED

BAYONNE, France, Oct. 14.-Accord-
ing to advices received from Madrid
a rigorous censorship has been revived
there since yesterday.
Senior Sagasta and his colleagues are
reported to be greatly concerned re-
garding the demands Of the United
States Government, which, they assert,
not only refuses to assume any Of
SPANS colonial debts, but wants to
take the heavy artillery in Cuba and
the floating docks recently sent to Ha-
vana.
The same advices say the Madrid
impartial announces that the Govern
ment has cabled General Blanco not to
turn over any further territory to the
Americans until the peace treaty has
been definitely signed.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

PARIS, Oct 14.-Commander Brad
ford, U. s. N, who has arrived here
from Washington, was examined this
morning by the members of the United
States Peace Commission relative to
the conditions prevailing and the main
features of interest in the Philippine
Islands, with which the commander is
we'll acquainted.
The fifth joint session Of the two
commissions was convened at o'clock
to-day.
The American reply 20 the Spanish
presentation of Tuesday was submitted
and read An oral discussion followed.
when the commissions adjourned until
Monday next.
1t is believed that the Spaniards sub
mitted as their construction of the
protocol that it was just to consider
Spain as having equities fairly dis
chargable by the American assump-
ton of Cuban obligations. 1t Is not un-
likely that the Americans voiced the
conviction that fair equities to the
United States, in war expense, were in
CURED by the United States, and pos
sibly, though not positively, the Amer
leans may schedule the value of the
battleship Maine among the expendi-
lures possible of classification against
the so-called Cuban debt.
However, it may be considered Ger
tain that the commissions have arrived
at a point In the negotiations from
which henceforth the joint sessions
will be occupied by oral discussions as
we'll as by written presentations of
propositions. The work is now thor
oughly entered upon, though it Is not
likely that any segment has been pol
ished and finished for a place in the
final treaty.
The Philippine question has not yet
been entered upon.
