PLOT AGAINST CAR EMBRYONIC.
Trial of Conspirators Arousing Little Inter
est in ST. Petersburg

st. Petersburg. Aug. 21-The trial by court
martial Of the persons implicated in the con-
spiracy against the life of Emperor Nicholas
which was revealed on May II as result of the
arrest of a soldier at Tsarskoe Selo. ended this
afternoon with the hearing Of the prosecution s
witnesses mostly detectives and police officials.
Little direct evidence was adduced in support of
the main change
The defence several times brought out good
points. The trial. which indicates that the al
legged plot was in an embryonic stage and scarce
~ went beyond collecting information regarding
the movements of high personages. has aroused
little general interest. The hope is entertained
that if the death sentence is imposed 1t will be
accompanied by the courts recommendation for
imperial clemency.
A newspaper published in Moscow in the In
terest of the Octobrist party, called "Golos-
mesky." C'The Voice.. has been fined $500
for publishing the indictment against the per-
sons implicated in the plot against the Emperor.
and criminal action has been begun against the
editors OF the paper.

Meeting at Narienbad.

Marienbad, Aug. 21-M- Clemenceau. the
French Premier, who is taking the cure at Carls-
bad. was the guest of King Edward at luncheon
here this afternoon. The Premier also saw Sir
William Edward Goschen, British Ambassador
TO Austria Hungary, who is in attendance on the
King. The results of the recent royal meetings
at Wilhemsh6he and Ischl were discussed with
apparent satisfaction on the part of all con-
cerned
After the meeting Premier Clemenceau said
his interview with King Edwayd related 70 the
general situation, and especially the Moroccan
question, and that it led to absolutely pacific
hopes"
Paris, Aug 21.-The French press expects that
Premier Clemenceau's interview with King Ed
ward at Marienbad viii be extremely useful to
France in case of complications in Morocco, as
it will enable the Premier to know in advance
the personal views of Emperor William and
Emperor Francis Joseph on the Moroccan sit
uation.

Edward advised NJ. Clemenceau that France

RUMORS OF TRnUBLE IN SOUTH
Conflicting Reports Reach Washington
Situation Thought Grave.

Washington. Aug. 21-Conficting reports. largely
unofficial. continue to reach government officials
here Of renewed outbreak Of hostilities in Central
America According to reports from naval officers
the situation there appears to be quiet.
But there is undercurrent of feeling of insta-
bility, attributed mainly to the possibility of re-
newed attack by Nicaragua on Salvador. While the
reports discredited here, the opinion of those
who have been on the ground is that the relations
between the two countries still strained. Sal
vador is smarting under the action of the Nicara-
guans In sending an expedition against it several
months ago when the Monotombo went at AGA
Julia and did less damage 10 SalvadoraI'
interests. While the latest report lacks official con-
fr1nation. directions will be given to commanders
of American vessels to report promptly any unusual
happenings and to safeguard American interests.

Yorktown are now in Central American waters on
the Pacific side while the Dubuque is on the Allan
