OF EXTREMISTS.
Become Alarming in London and
Paris-OMcials Guarded.
E,orafpn nrresnondance of The Star

Foreign Correspondence of The Star
LONDON. September Z, 1909.
The mystery and alarm in con-
nection with the operation Of the
Indian extremists in this country
are increasing. There Is direct
communication between the headquarters
in Paris and a certain small section In
London. No secret is made Of the plans
of the Paris school. Assassination is
openly justified as q political weapon, and
in revenge for the death OF Dhinagri
But In London 1t is impossible to pick
out the extremists. who may be living
quietly in lodgings until they startle the
world with some terrible act, as Dhinagri
did. Both Niscount Morley and Lord
Curzon have been closely guarded for
some time. but every Indian official can
not be watched. and the fact that an
inofensive man like Sir Curzon Whyllie
was picked OF makes none of them feel
safe.
The latest plan for getting inside the
schemes of the extremists Is the tmporta-
ton into London and Paris of a num-
ber of the Indian police officials, who are
mixing with the Indian community. They
are not likely to CLEAN much, because
most OF them are we'll known Among the
constitutional Indian party this move
Is regretted. The Indian police have a
bad name and their presence In London
and Paris may do more harm than good.

championship Of Italy, has arrived here
and gone west, and now Pat Connolly,
who claims the championship of Great
Britain, is on this side under the manage
ment Of Tom O'Rourke.
Connolly will meet one Of the American
wrestlers before long. Raicevfch has
gone across the mountains to try and get
a chance with Gotch. II Gotch is eager to
wrestle he will have his hands full all
