TO KILL WILSON
Hint by |. W. W. Radicals
Causes Arrest of Twenty
Four SpaniardS in Two
Cities.

Philadelphia. Feb. 24.-Ten men
were arrested here today suspected
of being implicated in the New
York plot to assassinate President
Wilson. The prisoners taken here
were rounded up shortly after the
raid by the police in New York.
The men arrested here inclt ded
Edurdo Parades, a Cuban, said to
be the leader OF the Spanish Indus
trial Workers of the Wo Id. All are
Spaniards and nine of them are
aliens.
Secret service men here attach
more importance to the arrest in
New York of two Philadelphians,
Florien Medina Veitia and Elario
Orestissa, than to the roundup of
the 10 Spaniards in this city. In
their roofns here were found about
200 pounds of anarchist and social
list literature and a number of let
tiers. Bundles of copies of a Span
ish anarchist newspaper also were
seized.
Fooled By Agents.
An agent of the Department OF
Justice learned BY chance about
two weeks ago of meeting of
those arrested here and in New
York, at which some of the radi-
calls, it is said, dropped hint of the
assassination plot. The agent
learned that two men were to be
sent from this city 10 New York as
the assassins. All the government
agencies in both cities Immediately
turned to the task of foiling the
Spanish terrorists.

THE NEW DOG LAW.

Statistics compiled from govern
ment records show that depredations
OF worthless dogs, usually the half
starved cur, are chiefly responsible fol
the constant decrease in the number
Of sheep kept on the farms of the
country. Especially is this true of
Virginia. Reports received by the
State Department of Game and In
land Fisheries from 66 counties in the
State in which there are II total of
$4,000 sheep record 2,S73 sheep kill
cd by dogs last year On the same
basis the total loss to the State would
be 1855 annually. The number of
sheep killed by dogs in the United
States is estimated ut 10000.
Assuming that the average sheep is
worth $1,000, which is most con-
servatiYc estimate, considering the
fact that wool and mutton are com.
mandirg higher prices than ever be-
fore. the actual number of of sheen
killed Ivy dogs in Virginia last year
represents II monetary loss to the far.
ners of $2S.730. Figured on the bu-
sis of 1855 sheep lost by the State
the money loss is Si3,56O. II is known
that many sheep are killed by dogs
and no report thereof made to The
State and county officials.
