nation.

Madrid, May 19.-Gabrel Lopez and
fifteen other anarchists are under ar
rest, accused of plotting to assassinate
King Alfonso. In the rooms occupied
by Lopez nine dynamite cartridges
We're found
Lopez has confessed that he had
been ordered to throw the dynamite
under the kings carriage Saturday as
it passed thru a narrow street, Carrera
de San Jeronimo, thru which the royal
procession passed.
The plot was discovered and the ar
rests made late Friday night.
Lopez says only his arrest prevented
the death of the king, as he intended to
carry out the orders of his superiors.
The sixteen men so far under arrest
are all Spaniards and include some OF
the best known anarchists in Madrid.
Lopez is an insurance clerk. The other
prisoners include six medical students,
carpenter, mason and printer.
Other arrests will be made.
The discovery Of the plot and the ar
rests have created the widest excite
ment in Madrid.
King Alfonso's first proclamation
was published Saturday in the Official
Gazette. 1t declares that, tho lacking
experience for his serious responsible
ties, so great is his desire to respond to
