RUSSIAN GIRL TRIED.
Charged With Trying to Assassinate
 an Aged Senator.

Paris, April 19.-Great interest was taken here in the trial of Vera Gelo, the Russian girl student, who was charged with trying to assassinate Prof. Emil Deschanel, the aged Senator and father of-the president of the Chamber of Dep uties, on January 19, by firing a revolver at him just as he concluded lecture on French literature at the College of France. She was acquitted tonight. The interest in the case was heightened by the fact that Zelenin, the Russian girls friend of Vera Gelo, who intervened be- tweengthe latter and Professor Deschanel at the time and received a bullet in her chest, died in the hospital after lingering some time Professor Deschanel fre- quently visited the wounded girl at the hospital and daily sent her bouquets of flowers up to the time of her death. A strange feature of the case was Vera Gelo'S obstinate silence as to the nature of the outrage she claims was inflicted on her at Geneva by a man she thought was Professor Descanel. She suffers from hysteria and medical men believe she js the victim of hallucination.

Hundreds of Letters Are Received
 Asking for information.


 washington.sApril 1s.-The prospect of the opening of new lands in Oklahoma Territory to settlement under the act of March 3 last. providing for the disposi- ton of lands ceded by the Wichita, Kio- wa, Commanche and Apache Indians, has had the effect of increasing the cor respondence of the commissioner of the general land office until 1t has come to be of enormous dimensions. Most of the letters ask for, information upon this sub ject. In January 2327 letters were received; in February 4235; in March 5074 and thus far during the present month this mail has numbered 3744. In view of the fact that the lands to be offered for settlement include only about 12.0O0 quarter sections or an equal number of homes, 1t Is fore seen that there will be tremendous riv- airy.
 Many publications in the vicinity of the new lands and elsewhere are reported to be holding out inducements towards would-be settlers to consult them as to the best methods of securing lands, pro- fessing to have exclusive information Commissioner Hermann of the general land office today issued warming to the public against all such representations "No one can have information on this question that is not open to all alike. he said, He also repeated the departments s warning against intruders, saying that those who abide by the law will be pro- tected in their rights while those who violate it will be punished.
 The lands will be thrown open in ac- cordance with the Presidents proclama- tion and under the law that proclamation cannot be issued until after the 9th of next August.

J, Investigation was begun here on receipt of dispatches from Berlin an- nouncing that the police of that city had discovered & plot against the life of Elm peror William. These dispatches stated that anarchists from Argentina were the moving spirits in the plan, and that ono named Romagnoli had been arrested.
 "The movements of Romagnoli who re- gently left this country, were traced by government agents. It was found that he came from Rosario. where an anarchist society has long been in existence.
 The police of that town immediately began an investigation and finally made a raid upon the quarters of some of the most prominent anarchists. Important pa- pers bearing upon the organization of the society were seized.
 These showed that Romagnoli acted upon direct orders from Paterson. A let ter was sent to him telling him that ne had been chosen by lot to kill the Ger man Emperor and instructing him to go immediately to Berlin1 He left Rosario soon afterward and sailed from this port.
 'He did not go directly to Germany but to Rome, where 1t Is supposed ne communicated with Italian anarchists. He then went to New York evidently to re- ce.ve final instructions from the lead CTS in Paterson. He came to Argentina again and held communication with his friends and then sailed for Germany, where he was arrested before he could execute his orders.

BITTER DISLIKE APPAREN I

London. April 19.-The Spectator to- morrow will discuss The Continent and America" taking as text portion of an interview with Admiral Count Cane- varo at Toulon, which the Spectator oc- lieves has not attracted the attention 1t deserves.
 Admiral Canevaro, In concluding his ut terances regarding the triple and dual alliances having given Europe thirty years of peace, said: This fact would perhaps, lead European nations to con- slider the possibility and necessity of unit ing againstsAmerica, Africa and Asia, as the future of civilization will require them to do so.''
 The Spectator does not consider this the rash outburst of the Man in the Street. for Admiral Canevara has been Italian minister of foreign affairs. His utterances." the Spectator will say. cor respond exactly with that of Count Goluchowsky (Austro- Hungarian foreign minister) and with all the recent trend of affairs The annoyance of the continent with America which is very deep, is based upon three reasons, the first being the dread, or rather the conviction that com petition with America is nearly impossi- ble, her wealth and energy being too great Both are employed. the continent thinks, to monopolize trade and so to con- trol in the end all the wealth of the world, an idea not without advocates even among ourselves"
 The second and third reason is Ameri- ca s attitude In South America She will neither take it nor let anybody else.
 '"The total result is a bitter dislike of America, mixed with dread. Our object Is only to awaken the Americans from an illusion to induce them to increase their fleet and to persuade them to think steadily out what they are doing. They may rely upon it that the contingent will lose nothing by want of planning and that. when the alliance against America of which Admiral Canevare talks, Is Into facts, 1t will be full grown and full armed.
