PLOT AGAINT CAR.
The Walls Of His Bedroom Now Lined With
Steel Armor.-New Contriyance.

Berlin (By Cable).-The St. Peters
burg correspondent of the Cologne
Volks Zeitung, under date OF March
", forwards by mail news to the effect
that there is evidence in St. Petersburg
OF the existence OF plots against the
authorities. He asserts that sums OF
money are being distributed to the fac
tory hands in St. Petersburg and vicin-
ity to induce them to join the disaf-
fected students. 1t has not been learned
whence this money comes, but indica-
tions point to high sources about the
court. The fact is, the correspondent
continues, the secret police no longer
trust even the highest encourage OF the
Gar.
New precautions for the protection
OF the Cars life have been taken
namely, a mechanism which allows no
one to open the doors OF the room in
which the Gar happens at the moment
to be. The Gar now has five desks
in his study. which he uses one after
the other The walls OF the Cars
study and bedroom are lined with steel
armor. The correspondent finds that
evidence of the new plots was general.
Orders were given Saturday night to
keep all the troops in St. Petersburg
ready. Sunday the police were dis
tributed in force on all the main streets
of the city. The military commando
of St. Petersburg, NJ. Kleigels, received
a number of warnings.
The Berliner Tageblatt prints a. spe-
cial despatch from St. Petersburg, by
way OF Lemberg. to the effect that the
Karpovitch investigation has revealed
great plot similar to the Nhilistic
conspiracy with Kieff as center, the
main branch at Odessa and ramihca
tions extending to the lowest strata OF
society. The plan was to make an at
tempt on the life OF the Gar, who
was thereupon removed to Gatchina.
Eighteen students are closely confined
at Schuesselberg because they were af-
hiated with the murderer OF NJ. Bogo-
liepoff.

contemplated. Treachery was considered
possible, but every precaution was taken.
