PLOT IN FIRST STAGE.

Court Martial of Russians Who Con-
 spired Against Car Ended.
 St. Petersburg, Aug. 21.-The trial by court martial of the persons inn plicated in the conspiracy against the life of Emperor Nicholas, which was revealed May 15 as a result of the arrest of soldier at Tsarskoe-Selo, ended to-day. The trial, which indi- cates that the alleged plot was in a very embryonic stage, and scarcely went beyond collecting information re- garding the movements of exalted per- sonages, has aroused little general in- terest. The hope is entertained that if the death sentence is imposed it will be accompanied by the courts recom- mendation of imperial clemency
