Mystery Hidden la Pekin.
In the meantime the walls of Pckin
covered Il mystery that detied the scr,t-
tiny Of the world. The most alarming
reports were disseminated by the Chinese
officials ut Shanghai. The news of the
murder of the German minister was coal-
tiinncd. 1t was gradually admitted that
all the legations but three had been de-
stroyNd, and that all the foreigners had
taken refuge in the compound of the
British legation. The source of all news
Was Shcng, the Chinese director of tele-
graphs at Shanghai. He held the wires
leading to Pekin. One day he would dy-
clare all foreigners safe, the next Ike
would seemingly admit that they had
been massacred.
On July IL, however. Secretary Hay
handed to the Chinese minister ut Wash
inston II cipher dispatch to Minister Con-
ger at Pekin. The Chinese minister had
undertaken to have the message deliver
cd and used his personal influence with
the officials at Shanghai. Nine days lat
or, o July 20, Minister WI received Il
message from the governor of Shan-Tung
transmitting IL cipher dispatch to the
State Department from Minister Conger.
When translator it read:
"In British legation under continuous
shot and shell from Chinese troops. Quick
relief alone can prevent general massa-
crc."
For three days Europe challenged the
authenticity of the Ccnger dispatch, still
adhcring to the belief that all foreigners
had persisted on July 6. Then, ON july
"a, the foreign office at London received
a dispatch from the British consul Mt
Tien-tsin. dated july 81. stating that ..

How to Make Prosperity Temporary.
Prosperity is only temporary" says
Mr.. Bryan. The wish is father to the
thought. An interruption to the good
times which the election of William
Mckinley brought to the country would
be the most fortunate thing that could
happen to Mr.. Bryan. A panic would
be regarded by him, and rightly, too,
as the greatest of conceivable luck.
Ruin. disaster and w~retchedness would
be a godsend to the Popocrat candidate.
Yes; prosperity would indeed be tenn.

But, fortunately, he possesses nc such
power. Prosperity will continue in,

HOUSE IN WHICH
PLOT WAS FORMED

New York, Aug. 3.-Detectyes have
found the room in which It is claimed
that the plot TO kin King Humbert was
formed II IS on the second floor OF a
West Hoboken. n. Jo resort for anar-
chists. and is Ia the heart OF the Italian
settlement, The place has not been
known as a meeting place for anar-
chists. There have been no public
meetings held there.and the room where
the men met was Kept for the most Sc
cret conference purposes.
These detectives say they learned
last night from socialists who attended
meeting at the place that less than
four months ago two Italians, man
and woman arrived in Hobokeu, and an
important conference was held in this
ROOM At the conference there We're
anarchists from New York, Brooklyn,
the Italian colony In Philadelphia and
Paterson and West Hoboken. This
socialist never saw Bresci and never
saw Quinte Vallo. but the description
Of the men TALES with that Of two Of
the men at the conference.
Mrs Bresci. the destitute wife OF the
assassin. with her little daughter. are In
this city from their home in West

siderable value, she said The consul
general promised 90 do what he could
Tor the woman. When she returned TO
West HUbokeu she found "a man rep
re5enting himself as a United states Sc
cret service agent awaiting her, He
questioned her az great length, but she
was unable 20 give him any more In

was q member OF what o. known as

Ch.sts.
The police have also learned that

of anarchists in this city. The cele-
bration took place iu an anarchist re-
sort IN Beecher street. Ten persons

SASH and a man named Lenner or
Lana, AN of whom are under arrest I'm
Italy. The other guests are not yet

persons concerned IN the plot 10 kin the
