the unfortunate victim. He was en-
gagged in smoking out a SWARM of bees
which he desired to move. At the time
he had his face and hands covered
with the usual muslin netting used on
such occasions. A strong wind was
blowing at the time and in some way
the muslin caught fire, and for a few
moments iblazed fiercely. The accident
happened so quickly that Mr.. Osler
could do little to protect himself, as
the coverings on his hands were also
aiblaze he could not use them to protect
his face. His face and hands were
badly burned and blistered by the
blazing cloth and his neck was severely
burned.

FRENCHMAN HAS
POLITICAL DREAM
LOUIS A. GORDAIN SAYS AMERI-
CA is HONEYCOMBED WITH
MONARCHIsT ORGANIZATIONS.
Omitted Press Service.


London, Aug. IA conspiracy,
which has for it's object the over
throw of republican form of gov
eminent in America and the estab-
lishment of monarchy, has been
started in London. with ramifica-
tons in Berlin, Madrid, Paris and St.
Petersburg. The conspirators make
no secret of their plans, and have ac-
corded many interviews to the Lon
don Press, in which they have an
nounced full details of the heinous
plot.
Louis A. Gordain, who claims New
York as his home, is apparently the
conspirator-in-chief. For some time
he has been stopping at a leading
London hotel, where he has received
journalists and told them of his
plans.
Gordain admits that the revolution
he is seeking to ferment cannot be
accomplished without war and blood
shed, but he believes that the end to
be accomplished is worth the cost.
At present the conspirators are
occupied with seeking to gain the
backing of foreign powers. The
Southern Confederacy failed, accord
ing to Mr.. Gordain, because it lacked
the recognition Of the nations of Eu-
rope. The plotters do not intend to
make this mistake. SO they have
come to Europe to enlist King Ed
ward, Emperor william, King Alton
so and Car Nicholas in their scheme.
So far as known, thse monarchs
have not yet held any secret sessions
with the American monarchists.
Gordain solemnly declares that
the American royalist party has
branches in every state of the Union,
and that all is in readiness to strike
the blow for the queen God bless
her-when the European monarchs
have given their consent and prom
Used their influence.
Gordain refuses to tell who is to
be the first royal ruler of America,
but he admits that the parsonage
will be queen rather than king.
The arch-conspirator asserts that
his plan to overthrow the republic
is really a blow for freedom, declar-
I ing that there is less real liberty In
the United States than in England,
Germany, Russia or Italy.
A meeting of royalists is to be
held in st Petersburg in a few DAYS
held in st. Petersburg in few days
when the various agents now gum
