London, Nov 20.-Emperor William,
concerning whose health there has
been circulated various rumors of
late, is pursuing rather strenuous
rest cure" at Highcliffe castle, on the
Isle of Wight.
For example, Monday he was at his
desk at seven o'clock ia the morning
and was engaged for two hours with
state affairs before breakfast. Then
both in the morning and the afternoon
he took long drives in a powerful mo-
tor car through the surrounding
country In company with members Of
his suite. The machine ran mostly
at pace not exceeding 40 miles an
hour, but in some places where there
was no danger the speed, reached so
miles an hour. Beyond these drives,
his majesty takes little exercise in the
open air. II the business of state is
not pressing. he rests in the castle
for a short time in the afternoon.
The emperor is sleeping well in the
pine scented country and his catarrh
is steadily improving. He appears to
be enjoying himself thoroughly. He
spends his evenings after dinner play
ing cards. With the exception of his
own physician, DIR. Illberg, no doctors
are in attendance upon him. He is al
ways accompanied on his drives by
Count Wolff-Metternich, the German
ambassador to Great Britain, and
Count August zu Gutenberg, grand
marshal of the royal court.
Special telegraph and telephone in
struments and special mail service
have been established for Highcliffe
castle. in order to enable his majesty
TO deal with his heavy state CORE
spondence.

Association and officers of Dist. No.
13, United Mine Workers of America,
1t was agreed that during the exist
ing money stringency the big mine
pay rolls of Iowa might be paid in

This agreement was adopted in the

tary OF both organizations and 1t will
be sent out at once to all the local

She told the secret service officers
that a plot existed against the en-
peror's life and that she had been
chosen to execute it.
The woman, whose name was
Xenia, died after having made a con-
fession to a priest. Important docu-
ments found on her person indicate
that she had been detailed also to kill
the minister Of war, Lieut.. Gen. Rudi-
ger, who has been formally sentenced
to death by the social revolutionists
She was only 1s years old and quite
handsome.
Acting on information she gave
about the plot the secret police are
planning important captures, it is said.
Many cipher dispatches are being sent
to Moscow and other cities by the
palace authorities.
The attempt on the emperor's life
was made at Tsarskoe Selo, 16 miles
FROM this capital. The young woman
who was to infiict the fatal wound, in
accordance with the plot Of the ter
rorists, was found helpless at the rail
way station at Tsarskoe Selo.
At first it was thought that she had
been injured. When questioned, how
ever, she said that she had swallowed
poison rather than kill the emperor.
She had wanted to slay him, but at
the last moment her courage failed
and she could not commit the deed.
In the woman's possession were
found dagger and a machine pistol.
The woman, who belonged to the
