A sensation waa created by the publication thla after' noon of the alleged details of a plot among his own subjects to assassinate tmperor Mutsuhlto. The startling story appeared In the Hochl Sulmbun. which states that the plotters, who are now under arrest, will he sentenced to death after trials be fore a special secret court. This Is the first time In the history of the country that the life of the sov erelgn has been plotted agalnat by his own people and the fact known. It Is understood that a rigorous cen rorshlp had prevented the publication f so much aa a hint of the conspiracy until this evening, when the Hochl Phlmbun assumed responsibility for the alarming announcement. The rapes s assertions are not with out a show of authority. There are now In Jail In this city a number of per eons alleged to be active In the "allied socialists" movement, and those who may be considered to be responsible, state, as does the Hochl Shlmbun. that the arrests followed the discovery of a conspiracy against the throne. According to the paper, the assas sins planned to accomplish their end while the Emperor was visiting the military school Just outside the capl taL The plot was discovered In time to protect his majesty and the plottera were seised.

Hostile Demonstration Greets F.llirl Claire I-cncvc, Whose Statement That She HoikmI to Wed Doctor Hobs Her of Sympathy. LONDON. Sept. 11. Dr. II. II. Crippen and his typist. Ethel Claire Lenevc. to day were formally committed for trial for the murder of the former's wife, Cora Belle Crippen. the American act res.i. who was known on the stage, as Helle Elmore. The doctor Is charg with murder and his companion as an accessory after the fact. For some time the magistrate in the Bow-street Court has been hearing the evidence offered by the crown, and the conclusion of these preliminary proceedings today announced that he would hold Crippen on the capital charge, and. without expressing an opinion on the evidence agalnKt Miss Leneve. added that he felt that It was sufficient for him to commit her for trial as an accessory after the fact. The Inquest into the death of Crip pen's wife not being; concluded, another session of the court will be held next Monday. The crown has attempted to show that parts of'the body found were of the body of Belle Elmore, but Its medl cal experts have not been able to swear positively regarding the sex. At Mon day's session Emtl H. Jackson, at whose home Miss Leneve lodged up to March last, recited a conversation which she said she had had with her lodger and which Indicated that the girl expected to marry Dr. Crippen after his wife left him. Thin testimony appears to have robbed the accused girl of some of the sympathy which she has heretofore en- Joyed and was the cause of a hostile demonstration when she arrived at the Bow-street station today. The eab that she occupied was followed by a crowd of hooting women, and their taunts were echoed by the throng that had gathered In the vicinity of the court. Gilbert M. Rylance, the prisoner's partner In the manufacture of artificial teeth, testified today of receiving note from Crippen In which the latter said that in order to escape trouble he would be obliged to absent himself for a time. years, and at the expiration of that time the ratea originally complained of can be put Into effect. The Southern Pacific proposes to take advantage of this pro vlKlon of law. for Its contemplated In creases are to begin October 16.

The Mis souri river rases have bobbed up again In the Supreme Court of the United States through the endeavor of coun sel for the railroads to put in another word In behalf of a rehearing before the Court Just before Court adjourned last Spring it handed down decisions up holding the validity of orders of the Interstate Commerce Commission re ducing the class rates between the Mississippi and Missouri Klvers on shipments from the Atlantic seaboard to Missouri River cities and also on shipments from Chicago and St. Louis to Denver. The orders were attacked as an Illegal attempt of the Commis sion to create zones traffic. The Su preme Court could see no such at tempt."" The railroad counsel In their latest brief Just filed In Court, point out that If the final decision of the Court Is against them, shippers will present claims for reparation amounting to more than I2j0.ono. Thus It Is said there Is Involved In the adjudication of the cases the liability, and even It tho orders by their terms should expire pending the litigation there still would remain the additional point of liability.

Filing his find ings In the Minnesota commodity freight and 2-cent passenger-rate case today In the United States Circuit Court, Special Master in Chancery Charles E. Otis, held those rates to be unconsti tutional and confiscatory. This finding of Judge Otis, unless overruled, wipes out he rate-making power of the State of Minnesota through the Warehouse and Railroad Commis sion and haa a somewhat general ef fect In establishing a Federal rate supervision aa against state rate su pervision.

Chanler's first wife, Julia Chamberlain Chanler, who obtained a divorce from him In the. French courts In 1907. filed suit here today In behalf of herself and her children In an endeavor to set aside the agreement on the ground that It was ob tained by fraud and undue influence and that It was not the free act of Robert Wlnthrop Chanler. Previous Aureement May Bind. jnrs. unanler. the first, has an agree ment of her own with 'her ex-husband providing for the payment of HO.OOJrycarly for her support and 15000 yearly tor the support of each of her daughters. 1 ne plalntiir Is not aware, she says In her papers, "of the yearly Income of the said Robert Chanler, but the plaintiff believes that by the aforesaid agreement. the defendant has put It out of his power to carry out the terms of his said agree ment with the plaintiff, and that by rea son thereof, the plaintiff and her. chil dren may be deprived of the means of livelihood." She continues "that she Is further In formed and believes that the defendant. at the time of the execution of the said Indenture, was In a suggestible mental state that he was susceptible or liable to be easily Influenced and deceived and that the defendant, Natallna Cavallerl Chanler. knowing of his condition and taking advantage thereof, contrived, by misrepresentation, specious inducements and undue Influence to persuade him to execute the said Indenture.

GOVERNOR'S DAY ATTRACTS LARGE CROWD AT CHEHALIS. Grandstand Is Tuxcd to Capacity and 8000 Persons Are Count ed on Grounds. CHEHALIS. Wash.. Sept. 21. (Spe- ciul.) Today was Governor's day and Chehalis-Centralla day at the South west Washington State Fair, and the crowd was a splendid turnout from the two cities. Many other soutkwest cities were represented, attendance being heavy from Olympia and the Grays Harbor country. The crowd waa estimated at about 8000, and the entertainment fur nished was of the highest class. The exhibit buildings were packed all day with the throngs, and when Governor Hay delivered his address this afternoon the rapacity of the Immense grandstand was taxed to contain the audience. The Governor complimented the efforts of the fair commission most highly, and Marshell K. Snell. of Tacoma. who fol lowed him. also paid the fair a great compliment. The racing programme was excellent. Thursday, which Is southwest Wash- ngton Development Association day, is expected to attract one of the largest crowds of the week, these being many assurances that large delegations will attend. Walla Walla Scliool Reflects on Or dinance Requiring Gates and Flag men and Stopping of Trains. WALLA WALLA. Wash., Sept 21. (Special.) That the railroads of the city are endeavoring to hand the Board of Education "a package. Is the opin ion of many of those conversant with the situation. The present phase of the trouble is merely a continuation of the controversy between the Northern Pacific and the school board and Is taken to Indicate that the Northern Pa cific is still In the ring and fighting strong. When an ordinance requiring gates and flagmen was first drawn up, it not only had these requirements, but also that of the trains stopping before the crossings. The railroad says that either is all right; that they can be forced to put in gates and maintain flagmen, or they can be forced to stop their trains before crossing. But not both. Hence they are now willing to have the ordinance go through In its original form, hoping thus to take the matter into court and keep It there for two or three years, which will be cheaper than . maintaining the gates and flag men. Whether or not the Council will per mit this now that the plan has leaked out. Is not known; but it Is probable a thorough Investigation of the legality of the proposition will be made before any action is taken. - dlftfeF mm ' -Mr mm "'- Signalize the Opening of the Fall Season With a Display of Elaborate Carriage, Calling, Dinner and Dancing Dresses Also New Fall Models in Pellard Suits In Velvets, Rough Imported Material and Broadcloth Opening Exposition of Fall Millinery WILD DUEL TRAGEDY Insane Man Using Shotgun Is Killed by Constable.
