PLOT AGAINST REPUBLIC
NUMBER OF pERklcioys FOR.

FROM PANAMA.

Panama, Aug. 13.-The police have
captured seventeen Colombians. for
mer revolutionary generals. on the
charge of conspiring against high ma
tional authorities. The prisoners. dur
ing the revolution of 1900, distin-
guished themselves by their depreda-
tions in the interior of the isthmus. A
Mexican named Ruiz Sandoval was
also taken into custody. All the men
arrested had recently arrived in Pan
anna.
Secretary Arias refuses to furnish
any details of the plot, but it is ru-
mored that some of the members of
the Panaman Liberal party are impli-
Gated. The prisoners will be deported
as pernicious foreigners.
All danger seems to be passed. The
conditions here are normal, the gen
eral public not being aware that the
authorities have captured the plotters
It is asserted that if the conspiracy
had been successful it might have re-
suited in serious consequences to the
republic of Panama.

DIRECT VIOLATION or LAW
GOMpERs cRlTtCIsES ACTION OF
CANAL OFFICIALS REGARD
ING COCLiE LABOR. @

Washington, AuG. l3.--Samuel Com
pers, president Of the American Fed
Grafton Ct Labor, has issued state
ment concerning the action of the
isth!nian canal commission IN deciding
to Introduce Chinese coolie labor to
tho work CT constructing the canal
across the isthmus OF Panama. The
statement is as follows;
"It seems that those in charge of
the Panama canal construction have
regard for neither law nor principle.
First, in the most extraordinary man.
ner, the eisht-hour law is annulled in
the greatest public work ever under
taken by the government under the
pretense that conditions there are diff
ferent than they are in the United
States. 1t must appeal to the veriest
tyro that if eight hours work is re.
garded as sufficient in the compara-
lively temperate zone Of the United
States certainly ten, eleven and even
more hours of labor a day in the pes
tilential and miasmatic atmosphere Of
the canal zone are not only improper
but outrageous and brutal
THE existing law excludes Chinese
laborers and coolies from tho United
States or any CT its possessions. The
Panama canal zone is an American
possession and it is as much a viola
tion OF the law to bring coolies there
as it is into other portions Of our
country"

Tense, narrowly escaped assassination
at the hands of the imperial guards In
the guard camp at Krasnoye-Selo It
appears that the grand duke was per-

ing practice when he suddenly was
startled by the wasp-like hiss of bull
lets about his head. Fortunately
neither himself nor his horse was
touched. The command to cease FIR
Ing was Immediately given and the
soldiers of the regiment from which
the bullets came we're marched back
to their quarters and an investigation
was begun in the hope of ascertaining
from the barrels of the rifles which
bf the soldiers fired ball cartridges.
Several arrests are understood to have
been made.
Plot Of Guardsmen Suspected.
One of the grand dukes aides-de-
camp advances the theory that pos
sibly the bullets were fired by accf-
dent, but he considers that beyond a
doubt there was a plot on the part of
a number of disloyal guardsmen, who
deliberately planned to take the grand
dukes life under cover of the general
blank cartridge firing.
The bold attempt on the grand
dukes life caused an immediate
change in the plans of the emperor,
who had arranged to go to Krasnoye-
6elo and spend a week with the sol
diers of his imperial guards.
It was learned that the troops were
