TERRORIST PLOT FAILED.
Plan to Murder a Russian Grand Duke
and a Cabinet Minister Frustrated.

st. Petersburg. - The Illustration
in this city Thursday of a Ter
rorist plot and the arrest on the
streets of no less than 80 men and wo-
men for alleged completely was fol-
lowed Friday by the capture in sub
urban towns of several other persons
implicated in the abortive attempt at
assassination, who were gathered in
just as they were trying to escape
The police believe they have made the
most important move against the Ter
rorists that has been engineered in
several years.
The plot came very much nearer
maturity than did the last unsuccess-
full conspiracy against the emperor,
the participants in which were tried
and condemned last July. According
to the police, the band that started
out to do murder had two victims in
view, Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaie-
witch, son of Grand Duke Michael, and
NJ. Chtcheglovitoff, the minister of
justice. Both the grand duke and the
minister were to have been assassi-
mated between their residences and
the railroad station at TsarskoeSelo,
where they were going to see the en-
peror. Two distinct revolutionary or
ganiZations were concerned. The first
had its headquarters In Finland and
the second was the So-called northern
flying column, recruited in the vicin-
ity of Moscow.

TRAINS STUCK IN SNOW DRIFTS.
More Than a Dozen Such Cases Re-
suited from a Great Storm
in Michigan.

Detroit, Mich.-At least 13 pas
senger trains poked their pilots into
impervious snow drifts throughout
Michigan on Wednesday and late last
evening reports from out In the state
indicated that some of these trains
were still snowbound. Traffic was
completely abandoned on the Kalama-
zoo, Lake Shore & Chicago railroad.
and on the Port Austin division of the
Pere Marquette only one train was
sent over the line. The Allegan divi-
sion Of the Lake Shore & Michigan
Southern was completely blocked, as
was also the Midland-Bay City-Vas-
sar division of the Michigan Central.
The westbound Wolverine flyer on
the Michigan Central buried itself
near Comstock in a drift out of which
five locomotives were unable to re-
lease it. The passengers were trans
ferred to another train and were car
ried past the drift on the eastbound
track while 100 men were set at work
with shovels to dig cut the snowbound
flyer" Other trains were snowbound

uLLEy HINTS AT SCANDAL
IN CONNECTION WITH CON.
TRACTS FOR SUBMARINES.
Connecticut Congressman Alleges that
Improper Influences Have Swayed
Naval Affairs Committee.

Washington, ID. c. Representa-
tive Lilley, of Connecticut, whose in
PRODUCTION of a resolution calling for
an investigation of improper methods
said to have been employed by the
Electric Boat Co. in endeavoring to
have its submarine boats chosen by
the house committee on naval affairs,
has caused a sensation, is to be called
before the committee on rules, to
which the resolution was referred.
Speaker Cannon is chairman of that
committee 1t is understood that if
Mr.. Lilley can show the committee on
rules that there is substantial ground
for his charges, his resolution will be
faVorably reported to the house.
Chairman Foss, of the committee on
naval affairs, was unwilling to make
a formal statement with regard to Mr..
Lilley's resolution and the charges
back of it. Mr.. Foss' attitude was that
he preferred not to take official notice
of the affair because it was now in
the hands of the committee on rules.
Mr.. Foss has been for years an un-
compromising opponent of the sub
marine torpedo boat as fighting
craft
The examination of the charge that
a conspiracy existed among certain
members of the naval committee to
turn down President Roosevelt's
naval construction program" shows
that a majority of the committee ex-
pressed themselves at the meeting on
February 10 as strongly in favor of
authorizing the four battleships asked
for by the president, but they adopted
the view of Chairman Foss, that to
report such a recommendation would
merely cause the committee to be re-
versed on the floor of the house and
they therefore voted to recommend
two battleships, the limit of authoriz-
alton that would be supported by the
house in the opinion of the chairman,
who had consulted house leaders.

in the future is also greater, but pro
gress is slow. Buyers have attended
the primary and jobbing markets in
large numbers, placing fair orders for
spring goods, although the disposition
is still to restrict operations to small
quantities, upon which prompt ship
ment is usually urged. Manufacture
ers anticipate early supplementary
orders, however, as the pressure for
quick delivery is considered endorse
ment of the general belief that stocks
are low. More mills and factories
have resumed, and it is announced
that many other plants will open next
