No Truth In Story of an Attempt to

New York, March 29,-The story OF
an alleged plot to assassinate Presi

cation proved to be entirely without
foundation, was made public today by
Police Commissioner McAdoo.
Several days ago the commissioner
received a letter from an Italian in
Italy saying that another Italian was
about to come to this country for the
expressed purpose of assassinating the
president. The writer gave a detailed
description Of the alleged anarchist,
the steamer on which he would sail
and full details Of the alleged plot,
and when the steamer docked an in,
spector was on hand with a large
squad of detectives and the suspect
was found and detained. Investiga
ton, however, showed that the case
was purely one Of spite on the part
of the man who wrote the letter.
1t was found that the detained man
was not an anarchist, and he had
perfect right to enter this country.
He was allowed to land. The object
of the letter, it was found, was to

Rome, March 29.-The meeting be.
tween the dowager Queen Marghuer.
ita and Emperor William, which, it
seemed as If the elements were deter.
mined to prevent, took place today.
Queen Marghurita, although the
weather was threatening, left Rome at
an early hour by special train for
Terraina, where an automobile was
in waiting. Going swiftly to Gaeta
the queen enjoyed an exhilarating
rush through the country, the trip
being accomplished without accident.
At Gaeta she boarded the Italian bat
tleship Re Umberto, named after her
deceased husband, and went to meet
Emperor William, who was on his way
from Naples to Gaeta on board the
imperial yacht yacht HohenzoIlern.
The two ships thus met out at sea.
The scene was picturesque, as many
flags fiuttered gaily in the air, the
crews cheered and the bands played
the national anthems of Italy and
Germany. Emperor William imme.
diately boarded the Re Umberto and
after an hours chat the queen accom-.
panied him aboard the Hohenzollern,
where they had lunch.
The queen was heard to say as she
left the Hohenzollern for the Re
Umberto:

many"
To which the emperor replied:

FAILED TO MAKE
PROPER SIGNALS
Court Of Inquiry Investigates
Collision Of Warships,
NO FURTHER PROCEEDINGS.

NJ FOR HEX PHOCEEDlNGS.
The Collision of the BattIeships Mis-
souri, and Illinois Explained to In
quiry Court Causes of Accident.
No Blame Is Placed.
Washington, March 29.-The report
of the court of inquiry of which Rear
Admiral Wise was president, on this
investigation of the collision between
the battleships Missouri, commanded
by Captain Cowles, and the Illinois
commanded by Captain Bradford, was
made public today. The court rec
ommends no further proceedings and
it's action is approved by Rear Admir-
al Barker, commander in chief of the
North Atlantic station.
Accompanying the report are opin
ions by the judge advocate genera
and by Admiral Dewey, each of whom
concur in the recommendations that
no further proceedings be had. The
case is accordingly closed In its
opinion, the court says:
On board the Missouri Captain
Cowles gave the necessary orders
for immediate reversing the engines
for full speed astern, repeated the
signal as an emergency signal and
ordered the display of the signal which
should warn the Illinois OF the Mis-
cnJJri'c
but failed to indicate the course to
starboard by one blast of the whis
tie. The orders for the display ol
the signal by dispatch flag was moi
obeyed by the officer OF the deck
Lieutenant w. Pitt Scott, q. 8. NJ, OF
was no obeyed with sufficient prompt
ness to be of service to the Illinois,
while in absolute ignorance of the
Missouri's actual movements.
This failure was, in the opinion oi
the court, after the accident to the
steering engine the secondary cause
of the collision. The court lays stress
on the fact shown in evidence that
the Missouri was an undrilled ship
newly commissioned, introduced into
a squadron of evolution without pro
cess workings, and without previous
practice with another ship in action
The third cause of the collision was
the backing of the engines on board,
the Illinois. The court is OF the opin
ion that this action on the part oi
Captain Bradford was by no means an
error of judgment or fault or an act
of negligence on his part. On the
contrary, guided as he was, solely By
such observation as he himself could
make on the movements OF the Mis-
souri,, an dmisled by signals actual
ly displayed by the Missouri, his
conclusion was just and his action
wise.
Notwithstanding omission of sig
nails noted on the part of the captain
and the officer of the deck of the
Missouri, the court recommends nc
further proceedings"
