Murder of Major Beekman
Believed Part of Wide
spread Plot.

LONDON. June 2s-It is today con-
sidered practically certain that the as
sassination at Stockholm Saturday even
Ing of Major General Beekman, chief
Of the Swedish coast artillery. Is the
beginning of an anarchistic demonstra-
ton which viii continue throughout the
tour Of the Czar of Russia through Eu-
rope.
The secret service agents OF the swed-
ish government have uncovered evi-
CEnca which establishes beyond a
dcSIbt the determination of the Eu-
roptan anarchists to make the Cars
visit coincidental with anti-monarchial
demonstrations in the countries through
which he travels.
Following the suicide OF the assassin
OF General Beekman. who died yester-
day OF wounds inflicted after the shot
that killed the coast artillery chief and
wounded Surgeon Levander, the police
discovered that his death was the pre-
scribed end OF a plot which resulted in
the choosing by lottery of the man to
do the killing.

Feeling Increases.

As the time for the Cars arrival in
England draws nearer, public feeling
against his visit increases. It is gen
orally understood that the labor unions
are considering seriously the ordering Of
a general strike TO protest against his
presence in England.
II is intimated from St. Petersburg,
that the Czarina and the Russian royal
children viii not accompany the Gar,
but will remain at Livadia- This is Of
ncially given out as due 10 the poor
health of the Czarina, but is really
caused by the dangers which now ap

Widespread Plot.

Through their discoveries the police
have established that anarchists IN
Sweden, France, England, Italy, and
Turkey for months have been preparing
for the Cars visit with the purpose Of
attacking officials in the countries he
visits
Agents Of the Russian secret service,
which has been aroused by the discoV-
cry, are hurrying along the route which
the Gar will take to assist the local
authorities in apprehendihg the sus-
poets. Particularly are they looking for
