DYNAMITE PLOT TO DESTROY
CUNARD STEAMSHIP UMBRIA

New York. May l0.-The discovery
yesterday afternoon of an ingenlously
constructed infornl machine. continuing
100 pounds of dynamite in half-pound
sticks and an electrically operated
mechanism. ON the pier of the Cunard
steamship line, frustrated what Is
believed to have been plot to sink
the steamship Umbria, which sailed at
. o'clock, when she was twenty-four
hours out at sea.
A letter received at police headquar-
ters less than two hours before the
Umbrla sailed revealed the presence OF
the Internal machine. This letter APP
pears to have been written by wom-
an OF education. The handwriting is
fine and cultured. II was signed. but
the police refused To give out the
rnme.
At the time the Internal machine
was discovered the pier OF the Cunard
line was crowded with prospective pas
sengoTs and their friends. Almost Il
panic ensued when they were ordered
from the pier before the sinlster-look-
ing box was removed from It's position
alongside the gangway leading 10 the
second cabin.
After the Internal machine had been
thoroughly soaked In the Hudson river
careful inspection made by Superln-
tondent Murray OF the bureau OF com
bustiblos and explosives. showed that
the powder fuse connecting the light
ing the lighting device with the ease
of dynamite had been actually ignltcd
and that It's end had been charred.
The 200 half-pound sticks OF dyuh-
mite were oncnsed In boxes. which also
held three sets OF oloekwork mochan-
ism. two dry storage electric batteries
and quantity OF loose gun cotton and
gunpoNdcr. The mechanism was click
Ing nolsily when box lid was thrown
back.
Chief Murray Of the bureau Of com
buatihlcs declared that II was the most
perfect internal machine he had ever
seen or heard about. Had Il gone on,
he said. Il would have blown the um-
hrin out of the water. Nothing but
It's discovery ON the pier, ho declared,
would have prevented the flemish pur-
pose Of itu constructors from having
been carried out There was no name
or consignment mark on the trunk
shaped box which held the machine.
II was taken to the Cunard line pier
yesterday afternoon by two men sup
posed 10 be Italians.

"Peruna is the best medicine know of
for coughs and to strengthen weak stomach
and to give appetite. Beside prescribing
it for catarrh. l have ordered it for veal;
and debilitated people. and have not had a
patient but said it helped him. It's an ex-

Only the weak need tonic. People arc
never weak except from some good cause
| One of the obscure causes OF weakness and
the one oftenest overlooked is catarrh.
| Catarrh iniames the mucous membrane
and causes the blood plasma to escape
through the mucous membrane in the form
of mucous. This discharge of mucous is the
same as the loss Of blood. 1t produces
weakness.

complication of kidney troubles. Be
sides the bad back which usually re-
suits from kidney complaints had a
great deal of trouble with the secre-
tions, which were exceedingly vari-
able, sometimes excessive and at other
times scanty. The color was high.
and passages were accompanied with
scalding sensation. Doan's Kidney
Pills soon regulated the kidney secre-
tions, making their color normal and
banished the inflammation which
caused the scalding sensation. l can
