earth Military Plot Against Re.
public-Assassin Of Grand Duke
Identified as Student Of Warsaw.

London, April 6.-The Daily Chron'
icle today prints the following from
its st. Petersburg correspondent:
There is evidently a conspiracy in
the palace of the car. During the last
few days a man in the uniform of a
Cossack has been arrested at Tsarto
Selo palace. While the guard was
being changed the prisoner was OBJ
served to be acting su~spiciously. The
officers in command perceived that
the saber worn by him belonged not
to a Cossack, but to an infantry Of
Hcer. He was, therefore, arrested and
a few minutes later a packet was
found in the palace containing two
deadly bombs, where the Cossack had
evidently placed them. A searching
inquiry developed a conspiracy. Twelve
secret police agents have been i'm.
prisoned as accomplfces. The end,
however. has not been reached.

THE CITY SPRINGS
WILL BE IMPROVED

interests are identical in seeing that a
sufficient supply is on hand at all
times.
The reservoir will be built about 500
feet above the present stone reservoir
and a little to the south Of the open
fume now furnishing the city supply
through the reservoir. 1t will receive
its supply through an open ditch, into
which all the water of all the different
springs will be collected. The water
will flow into the reservoir over the
upper wall and be let out through the
, lower wall, the outlet to be far enough
above the bottom of the reservoir to
permit the gathering of all foreign mat
ten on the bottom of the reservoir for
that purpose. No foreign matter will
be permitted to enter the water pipes
and carried to the city. The new res
ervoir will be connected with the
present reservoir through a pipe n
foreground, keeping the water always
pure and in circulation.
This, it is believed, is but the begin
ming of work which will have for its
ultimate object the placing of the wa
ter supply Of the city above the posi-
bility of deficit and the building in
time Of q system not surpassed in eff
ficiency in the Rocky mountain region.
1t is held by many that there is an
ample supply Of water for a city dou-
BILE the size of Laramie, and that II 1t
is not allowed to go to waste, every
citizen will have all the water he
needs for all purposes for years to
come. The system will not only
furnish a large supply of water for
daily USE, but will add to the protec-
ton from fire. Coupled with the i'm.
proyements in the fire system Of the
city now being carried out by the
chief of the fire department and the
city council, Laramie will take first
rank for pure water and efficient fire
fighting. The city has a trend upward
from the report coming today from un-
doubted authority.

AN ISSUE OF 500, ooo,o oo.
Mil Be Presented for Consideration
Of Stockholders at Meeting To Be
Held at Salt Lake May 5-WiiI Be

ments of Road.

New York, April 6.-The executive
committee and directors of the Union
Pacific Railroad company have, it is
announced, approved a plan to issue
800, OOO, 900 additional preferred stock,
doubling the present issue. The pur-
poses of this enormous increase were
not specifically set forth in L. H. Har-
riman's circular to the stockholders.
He asked their approval of the scheme,
which will be presented Tor the stock
holders consideration at the meeting
at Salt Lake, Utah, May s.
In an official circular to he stock
holders, Mr.. Hartman, president OF
the Union Pacific, calls attention to
the enhanced credit of the Union Pa
cifc and points out the policy which
the directors will pursue, that OF IL
nancing at least a part of its require
ments through the issue of capital
stock. The circular says this policy
should be adopted, especially in re
uuirements such as arise in connec-
ton with the acquisition OF stocks OF
other companies"
Mr.. Hartman urges that this policy
be followed rather than by creating
fixed interest-bearing obligations. Re
terence is made in the most general
way TO financing coming require
~auirements,'' but no light or informa-
ton is given in the official circular as
to the purpose of the huge stock in
crease which the stockholders are ask
ed to authorize.

cancy caused by the death Of J.. H.

At 2:l7 this afternoon Judge C.. E.
Carpenter pronounced the death sent
ence upon Henry E. Clay, convicted
of the murder OF George Gerber, a mer'
chant of this city, at his store on
south First street, fixing Friday, May
26, between the hours Of s a. m. and 3
p. m, as the date OF the execution,
the place to be an enclosure at or near
the county Jail prepared on purpose by
the sheriff. Clay stood for the ten
minutes consumed by Judge Carpenter
in delivering the sentence, seemingly
unmoved by the awfulness of the pro-
ceedings. He kept up his incessant
chewing upon some object in his
mouth. His eyes rested for a moment
upon the face of the judge as the latter
began his address, but soon they went
to the level of the desk before which
he stood. There were occasional
witches of the eyelids and sometimes
his fingers, clasped behind his back,
were moved, but aside from once shift
ing from his left to his right foot and
the putting of n hand to his mouth
when he coughed slightly, the man
hardly moved. He stood erect, his
black hair standing out from his
head, his swarthy face covered with a
weeks growth Of black beard, his fore
head low and covered by the curly
locks of hair. He was less moved, aD-
parently, than the court.
For the fraction of al instant Clay
moved not a muscle when Judge a
penter asked him if he had anything
to say why death sentence should not
be pronounced against him. Then he
shook his head and answered in a low
tone Nothing" Not until after he
left the court room in the custody OF
the sheriff did he utter a word. Sher-
if Reals spoke to him, IT'S pretty
hard. isn't it, Henry?" "Oh, don't
know. / suppose I'll have to come to
it all right" He was then locked up
in the cells in the basement OF the
court house.
Not since the September term, 1888,
of the district court of Albany county,
territory of Wyoming, has the death
sentence been pronounced In this
county until this afternoon. Then
George Black, convicted Of the killing
of Bob Burnette, was sentenced to be
hanged in December OF that year.
Sentence was pronounced by Judge
Sauhey. An appeal was taken to the
supreme court, and on the 25th OF
February, 1890, Black was hanged in
the Jail yard, Charles Yund OF this
city being the sheriff of the county at
the time.

SHERIFF GETS REWARD
FOR ARREST OF CLAY.

The dispute between Sheriff E. J.

relative to the reward offered for the
arrest of Henry Clay, the Laramie
murdrer, has been settled by the issu-
ance by the commissioners of this
county to Sheriff Smalley of Laramie
county of a check for the amount Of
the reward. Smalley claimed the re-
ward on the ground that he worked up
the case against Clay after he had
been arrested by the policemen for an
other crime.
