SUIT on BURIAL 1T SEA.
DR.. Prentice Brings fiction against
North German Ll0yd Line.

Dr. Chalmers Prentice, Of Chicago, whose wife
died on the North German Lloyd liner KGnigln
Luise and was buried al sea against the wishes
OF her daughter. who accompanied her. has
brought suit against the North German Lloyd
Line for $4,000 damages. DR.. Prentice who is
at the Waldorf said last night that through his
attorney. Frank Brundage. of No - Liberty
street, the papers in the suit had been served
the steamship company on Thursday. DIR.
Prentice arrived here on the Cunard liner Inn
bria a week after the K0nigin Luse reached
port.
Dr. Prentice said he had not only brought ac-
ton against the North German Lloyd Line, but
he would demand some redress. possibly in the
form OF apology, from the Italian ana Ger
man recommendation the former for COM
polling the German steamers to enter into irrcg
ular agreements with 1t in the transportation Of
passengers from Italian ports, and from the
latter for permitting steamers flying the Ger
man flag to enter into such contracts.
Mrs. Prentice died soon after the K6niGcn
Luise left Gibraltar. and under protest of her
daughter buried at
Dr. Prentice arrived while the K0nigln Luise
was in port. He said he visited the steamer and
had talk with the captain and later with the
Italian royal commissioner, whom the captain
declared had insisted on the burial DR.. Prem
tice said the captain blamed the commissioner
and the latter blamed the captain. He went to
the Italian consul IN New York and asked TO
see the report of the royal Italian commissions
er on the passage of the KOnigen Luise from
port was refused until he thrcate TO appeal
to Washington.
1t is alleged by DR. Prentice that his daugh-
fer on her arrival in New York had to borrow
500 from a friend and could get mono of the
5000 on her mothers person, which the captain
turned over to his consul at this port. The
doctor contends that as his wife was n first
cabin passenger the royal Italian commissioner,
whose Jurisdiction should not exceed the limits
of the steerage, had no legal right to demand
the burial of the body at sea.

THE PLOT AGAINST CAR.
Reactionists Suspected-Three Men,
bers of Donna Suspended.

st. Petersburg. May 1.-THE failure of the
government TO issue statement of the facts in
the matter of the plot against the life of EN-
peror Nicholas which came to light at Tsarkoe-
Selo two days ago and the peculiar attitude of
certain high officials have served to increase
the confusion of the public and have given rise
TO a persistent expression of the theory that
the government has TO deal with a reactionary
plot against the Emperor which contemplated
the proclamation OF a regency or dictatorship.
The Constitutional Democratic leaders say
that they are completely perplexed by the con-
Trajectory reports Of the mysterious doings at
the palace. and they are inclined to give credence
to the theory that the discovery of a revolu-
tionary plot at Tsarskoe- Selo led TO the supple
mentary discovery Of a second conspiracy, in
which the extreme reactionists are involved
1t is reported that among the persons arrested
in connection with the plot is singer who re-
Gently was enrolled in the imperial choir and
two men who have been recognized by the po-
lice as participators in several recent robberies.
