Plotted Overthrow of Soviet

LONDON, Sept. 13.-Revelations at

Russian capital. An extraordinary COM
mission is said to have discovered let
ters showing the conspiracy was wide

On the person of M. Kapyeva, secre-
tary to N. M. Kishkin, a member of the
relief committee, there was found q
note outlining q scheme of reorganizing
Russia under supreme ruler, with a
federal duma, regional and parish

rely on investigation and publicity to
bring about settlements. He added
that while he opposed compulsory ar
bitration as slavery" he favored the
hating of strikes for period of thirty
to sixty days pending an investigation
by the proposed industrial board which
would be divided regionally to facili-
tate its operations
The subcommittee, which meets to-
morrow to decide whether to 20 to
West Virginia to take testimony, to-
day received a protest from the gem
eral counsel of the operators, C. T.
Vinson, of Huntington, W Va, object
ing to the taking of testimony by the
subcommittee in the Mingo district
at this time. His reason is that trials
and grand jury inquiries are now
going on in the Mingo district and
these would be interfered with
Senator Kenyon said if the sub
committee did not take testimony at
this time, several of the members of
it might proceed to West Virginia to
look over the conditions in the Mingo
region and obtain first hand informa-
ton by talking to people on the
ground.
