BIG BLACKMAlLING PLAN
Murder of Armenian Merchant Starts investigation Which Promises to Reveal Some Interesting and
 Sensational Facts.

New York. July 2S.-seeking a ma tive for the murder of J. H. Tavshan- jian the Armenian rug merchant the district attorneys office was led today to an investigation of a report that Tavshanilan was one of ten wealthy Armenians who had been marked for slaughter If they failed to give up S10,- 900 each to a blackmailing band of their country-nen.
 No color was given to this theory by Bermos Hampartzoomian. who killed the rug merchant, when the prisoner was arraigned today. In court he main tained a stolid indifference, waived ex- animation and was remanded. Later he made a statement to a representative of the district attorney in which he de- clared that he had come here from Chicago for the express purpose of killing Tavshanjan, but the crime was instigated by no one and no other per sons or society was involved.
 From other sources carefully pro- tected by the authorities came informa ton of a startling character and said to be accurate. This Is to the effect
 
 iglnally organized for what the mem bers held to be patriotic. though revo- lutionary purposes, had degenerated into an instrument for blackmail.
 The killing of Tavshanjian and th e others. 1t was stated, was planned more than a year ago. They received let ters which they interpreted as mean ing that they must pay or take the consequences.
 The threatened men discussed the matter at a meeting to decide what they would do. Tavshanjian was pres ent. A number of other merchants were in favor of acceding to the de- mand. Better give them money and live" they said.
 No" said Tavshanjian. As a mat ter of principle we should not pay. You can do as you wish. They will get nothing from me-"
 MT Cambere, Travshanjian's secretary. visited the district attorneys office today and declared that the death of his en- ployer grew out of an attempted black mail. He gave Assistant District Attor- ney Smith a list of wealthy Aimeniaus whom he said had heen forced to pay blackmall to this band.

NOTE OF PROTEST
 FROM VENEZUELA
GOVERNMENT NEWSPAPER PRO- POSES ADOPTION OF THE DRA- GO DOCTRINE AND UNION vS. THE COMMON ENEMY.

Caracas, July 11.-Suggesting that the Spansh-American republics meet in con gress to themselves. approve and pro claim the Drago doctrine. now that the powers have Ignored it at The Hague, a correspondent of the official new gov ernment newspaper. Fl Constitutional, in a presumably inspired article, sounds the note for "union against the com mon enemy: against the ambitions and egoism Of the strongest"
 This article has caused much comment in Caracas, because it is published on the day following the presentation by Minister Russell of Secretary Roots sec ond note to Venezuela, in which he says that President Castro's refusal of the demand presented by the American gov ernment in March for the arbitration of the American claims are acceptable, and ab in insists on satisfactory consider ation of the claims presented. The United States is directly alluded to in connoc- tion with the annexation of Texas and the independence of Panama, when the writer says:
 "-'e have seen English. German and A%erioan warshtps off the Venezuelan coast In this way territory has been seized from Mexico and Colombia For eign interests are influential today In Ecuador and Central America and per haps tomorrow they will oe In the whole continent If these nations do not wake up soon to the reality and united for the defense of their interests"
 Lamentng that in admitting the Span ish-American republics to the peace con ference. their interests and inclnations were not considered and laying the blame for tEis on the 'egoism of the great powers, the correspondent says
 ''rhe Drago doctrine can become a rea1 and tangible fact It will be sufficient if Sranish-American congress be cele. brated In Buenos Ayres, Mexico or Cara. cas, and If all these nations assist and approve and proclaim this doctrine as the general law of these peoples in their re- lations with the foreign nations, 1t does not matter whether these latter approve 1t or not, because all the powoks com bined could not fight an entire continent Why net attempt it? If the most nhu. enual presidents of these republics launch the letter of convocation this congress would result in a triumph"

FORTY LABORERS
 RAGE WITH DEATH
SEWER BECOMES FLOODED WITH WATER AND MEN ALMOST LOSE THEIR LIVES IN MAD STRUG- GLE FOR SAFETY.

New York, July 2S.-Forty laborers ran, swan, fought for their lives when the new sewer in West Forty-sixth street was flooded tonight and but for the coolness of Foreman Ben Corners. all would have perished The men were working in the tube which is eight feet in diameter, a block In length and forty feet below the surface Suddenly a break occurred in the old sewer above them and the escap- ing water poured into the open end of the tube. The only exit was at the oppo- site end, where an air shaft led to the surface.
 moment after a stream first trcIled into the tube the flood came and the men turned to run, the water was at their panc-stricken, ran for the shaft and in running fell over each other When half way to the shaft the water was at their waists Screaming and fighting. the men wedged themselves into a helpless mass and all were in imminent peril of drown ing. Then Corners. who had led the way to the shaft, took a hand and swinging an ugly club. threatened to brain every man of them if they did not obey him. Then he ordered them to form four abreast and march. Some marched but more swan. as by that time the water had reached the necks of the taller, while those of lesser height had been swept from their feet. One by one the men gain ed the shaft and climbed the ladder to the street. Corners was the last to leave the sewer and when he did he rose from six feet of water.
