. LONDON. Dec, "A plot TO re-
store Imperialism and secure the re-
turn OF Emperor William has been
discovered in Berlin, according to a
dispatch from Amsterdam TO the
Express.
According to the dispatch which
was filed at Amsterdam on Friday
The chief men behind the plot were
Field Marshal Won Mackensen, Gem
eral Won Bern and General Count
Sixt Won Arnim. 1t is said that they
instructed the Prussian officers
corps to carry on pro-emperor
agitation. beginning Immediately af-
ter the rehabilitation OF the troops
was completed. Large sums OF
money are said to have been placed
at the disposal Of the leaders by mu-
milton makers.
The plot collapsed owing to the
fact that a secret service agent over
heard telephone conversation
Many arrests have been made in
Berlin and other cities, while the
government has long lists OF suspects
who had planned to seize members
OF the present government
No direct evidence OF William Ho-
henzollern's connection with the
plot has been found, 1t Is said, but
II is believed that the outline of the
plan was brought to Berlin by two
Of his suite who recently went to the
German capital for the ostensible
purpose Of taking the wife OF the
former emperor to Amerongen, Hol-
land.
Lieut. DIR. Gustav Krupp Won Boh-
len is said TO have been in control OF
me financial arrangements, Field
Marshal Won Mackensen is said to
nave attempted TO induce Field Mar
shal Won Hindenburg to join, but the
latter refused, saying that he In
tended to retire after the demobili-
2aion of the army.
The whole Prusslan court, 1t Is
said was in sympathy with the plot
ters and 1t is said that Prince Won
Bueiow and DR.. George Michaelis
former imperial chancellor, had
promised to help. The plan was TO
organize a provisional government
under Field Marshal von Macken-
sen or some other military leader
and then urge William Hohenzol-
Tern TO return.
