New York, Dec. H.-That portion Of all

excitement this morning than has existed
there since the Grand Duke Sergius was

Switzerland. brought the first news Of the
impending trouble. 1t declared that the
police at Geneva have intercepted in the
mails notice Of death addressed 10 Ed
itor Louis Miller, of the Warhelt, by
members OF the Cars party.
The notice reads:
The Geneva section of the Union Of
Russian People at its last assembly took
the following decision:
The editor of the journal Warheit.
Louis Miller, is condemned 10 death for
publishing secret government documents.
The promptest execution OF this judgment
