ANARCHIsTIC CONSPIRACY

Emperor of Germany, Russian Car,

Turin Slated For Slaughter-Wa
Planned In Paterson, N. j.
BUENos AYREs, April 19.-The police
Of the town of Rosario. in the province
of Santa Fe, have seized papers which
prove that that a plot against the lives
of the emperor of Germany, the czar of
Russia, the king and queen of Italy and
Count Turin was recently laid in Pater.
son, N. J.
Investigation was begun on the re-
ceipt of dispatches from Berlin announc.
Ing that the police of that city had dis.
covered plot against the life of Empe-
rOr William. These dispatches ntated
that anarchists in Argentina were the
moving spirits in the plan and that one
named Romagnoli had been arrested.
His movements since he left this coun-
try have been traced. He came from
Rosario. where an anarchist society has
long been in existence. The police of
that town Immediately began an inves-
tdRation and finally made a raid upon
the quarters of some of the most promi-
nent anarchists
IncrimtnatinR Papers.
Important papers bearing upon the
organization of the society were seized
These showed that Romaglino acted
on direct orders from Paterson. A let
ter was sent to him telling him that he
had been chosen by lot to kill the Ger
man emperor and instructing him to go
Immediately to Berlin. He left Rosario
soon afterward and sailed from this
port. He did not go directly to Ger.

posed he communicated with Italian an
archiSts. He then went to New York,
evidently to receive final instructions
from the leaders in Paterson. He came
to Argentina again and held communi-
cation with his friends, and then sailed
for Germany, where he was arrested be-
fore he could execute his orders.
Whether any specific action had been
taken to carry out the resolution of the
Paterson society for the assassination
OF the czar of Russia and the Italian
rulers, the police will not say. The
German, Italian and Russian legations,
however, have been placed in posses.

Prices of Sugar advanced.
Will Contest Payment.

A steamer with cargo of continental
sugar arrived at Greenock last evening
after the customhOuse was closed and
was refused permission to unload. The
duty on her cargo will amount to g.
600. The importers claim that the duty
on sugar had not been imposed when
the steamer arrived, and, therefore,
they will contest payment of the duty
There is reason to believe that the
best financial circles approve of borrow

Believe Effect of Tax, While Lower
Ing Prices, Will Lesson Competition
In Iron and Steel-Sugar Case to BE
Contested.
LONDON, April 19. 9.-Taken as a whole,
the comments of the country on the
proposals of the chancellor of the ex-
chequer in the budget statement cannot
be regarded as unfavorable. The out
standing feature of the pubic's recep-
ton OF the budget is the outcry from the
coal districts and in a lesser degree from
the business affected by the sugar tax.
In coal centers the export duty is re-
garded as confirming the idea in some
radical quarters that the government is
riding for fall, but the well informed
consider 1t possible that the chancellor
of the exchequer will be induced to ex-
empt from the new duty all contracts
made prior TO today, thus relieving the
pressure ON the middlemen who have
bought or sold coal for future delivery.
This, il is believed, will go far to re-
conclle the coal trade generally to the
INV LII pOS4IIOu.
In the meanwhile, however, the op-
position of the coal owners is augment
menting hourly. The chambers Of COM
merce in the coal districts are protest
ing in vigorous terms. The Cardiff ex.
porters scent ruin and their markets
being captured by American and Ger
man coal, The manufacturers, on the
other hand, fatter themselves that the
effect of the tax will be to lower prices
and lessen competition IN iron and steel
Prices of Sugar advanced.
The grocers advanced sugar a half
penny per pound this morning in Lon
don. British refined sugars were very
strong and jumped , shillings to 2 shil-
lings and pence a hundredweight
The Scotch manufacturing confec-
tioners and preservemakers advanced
prices shillings and 6 pence and ?
shillings ard 6 pence per hundred
weight, respectively. The Scotch sugar
refiners have put on shillings and have
abolished discounts.
There was practically no business to-
day on the Greenock Sugar Exchange.
owing TO the extensive buying prior to
the budget announcements. The presi-
dent of the Refiners' association ex-
presses the opinion that the tax will
work out beneicially.
