Soldier.

st. Petersburg, MAY l7.-By the ar
rest Of a soldier Of the guards az
Tsarskoe Selo and his subsequent con-
fess.on terrorist plot against the hfe
Of the emperor was discovered.
According to the details OF this plot,
the existence, of which has been con-
firmed by ono Of the highest officials
of the court, suspicion was directed 70
the soldier by the fact that he was
seen to have in his possession consid-
erable sums 2f money.
The man was at once placed under
observation. When he noticed that
he was being shadowed he became
panic-stricken and sought the author
tiles. He then broke down and vol
unfairly made his confession. after
which he begged for protection.
All the threads OF this conspiracy.
which Is radically different from for
mer attempts of this nature, are not

men. A few underlings have been
apprehended, but the real instigators

WILL REVIVE CID LAW.
District Attorney Jerome's Latest
Move Against Gamblers.

New York, May 17.-District Attor.
ley Jerome is preparing to prosecute
gamblers and poolroom proprietors
under a section of the penal code
which up to now has practically been
dead letter He is being helped by
Corporation Counsel Ellison. One of
Mr. Jeromes assistants will be ap-
pointed special corporation counsel
to bring suits under the section in
question. This section permits the
charities commissioner to institute
civil suits against every one who
wins or loses at play or by betting a
sum of $25 or more In one day. Every
such person must pay over not less
than five times the amount OF his
gains or losses to the commissioners
and the money must go to the poor.
There Is no exception In favor CT race
track betting Mr. Jerome has In his
possession a great mass of evidence
collected at the time Of the raids on
poolrooms about six weeks ago and
he also has the backing Of the Dow
ling law to compel gamesters to tell
him who their customers are and the
amounts of such customers stakes.
The sum involved Is very large, 1t is
believed II Is even suggested that If
the law Is revived and vigorously en-
forced enough money can be collected
to establish a new hospital. 1t Is said
that Mr.. Jerome's determination to
apply the section is owing to the un-
favorable at<Nude of the legislature
toward the anti-betting bills drafted
by him early in the session.

TO DISSOLVE COMBINE
Said President Is Determined to
Prosecute Hartman.
PROCEEDINGS ARE DELAYED
ehief Executive Apprehensive That
Present Prosperity May Be Affected
State of Affairs at This Time.

Washington, May 17-E. H. Harri-
man must be criminally prosecuted for
his railroad deals.
This Is the fixed determination Of
President Roosevelt without reference
to what action may be suggested by
the department of justice or the inter
state commerce commission. He
reached this conclusion a long time
ago and nothing short of drastic pro.
ceedings against the great magnate
will satisfy him.
The question of selecting pysch-
illogical time for beginning proceed.
ings against Mr. Hartman Is all that
has delayed the bringing Of suit.
The president is apprehensive that
prosperity may be affected by suits TO
dissolve all the combinations arranged
by Hartman He does not want such
a condition to arise until nearer the
close of his term.
For this reason he has decided not
to have proceedings instituted until
late in the autumn or the winter.
This understanding existed at the de-
partment of justice and the interstate
commerce commission.
CONSERVATION prevailed here when
1t became known that In some way
the report submitted by Messrs. kel-
logg and Severance to the commission
had become public. This arose from
the fact that the president has not
yet read or approved the report.
