VIEW OF THE PARIS POLICE.
They Believe the Murder Was the Re-
suit of n Plot of Italian
Anarchists.

PARIS, Sept. 10.-President Faure sent
a telegram of coincidence to Emperor Fran
els Joseph Immediately upon receipt of
news of the assassination. and he has since
countermanded the arrangements for the
shooting party fixed for tomorrow at the
Marty preserves.
The police here believe the murder the
result OF a plot of italian anarchists and
that the ASSASSIN is identical with one
Luccesi, who is wanted by the Bologne po-
lice as a dangerous anarchist. The man
known as Luccesi was implicated in the
recent troubles al Milan, after which he
fled to Zurich.
While at Zurich. Luccesi was present at
meeting of Italian anarchists. when sew

sassinate the principal European sovereigns
including the king of Italy.
French detective who was present at
the meeting in disguise. warned the French
foreign Office, which communicated its in
formation TO the Italian government As a
result King Humbert was carefully
guarded as was also NJ Faure
About week ago another meeting of
the same band of anarchists was held at
at the previous meeting were accused Of
cowardice.
Thereupon Luccesi said:
Il will show that am no coward. will

LONDON, Sept. IA dispatch to the
Sunday Times from Paris SAYS:
The assassination of the Empress Eliz-
abeth of Austria has created an immense
sensation in the French capital, where the
sympathy of the people is all the greater
because il is remembered that her sister.
the Duchess d'Alencon, perished in the
terrible bazar fire last year.
Her other sister, the former queen of
Naples has resided in Paris since the
death Of her husband, and the murdered
empress was a frequent visitor here and
familiar to Parisans Sympathetic crowds
gathered near the Austrian embassy soon
after the sad news began TO spread through
the pity.'

committed. which forbid capital punish
ment and make life Imprisonment the most

stein, was Informed of the tragedy he hur-
ried TO the palace, and was met with eX-
pressions of the deepest sympathy. so soon
as a special train could be arranged, the
minister started for Geneva, accompanied
by the deputy prosecutor general. who TOOK
