LONDON. Sept. " . ( New- York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram ) A report Is
published hero of a daring plot to assassinate
the czar at Moscow last week.
The plan of the conspirators was to allow
gas to escape in a house on the route ot
the czar's procession until the atmosphere !
was saturated lu n room. One of their
number was to remain In the house and
strike a light as the czar wns passing. It
was anticipated that the house would be
blown to pieces and the czir killed by fallIng -
Ing stones and tiles. The conspirator would
perish ns a sacrifice to the cause. This duty
fell to the lot of Alexander Kolnnoff. In his
agitation Kolanoff seemed to have made an
error , since the explosion took place when
a staff ofllcrr and his wife were driving
past the fateful house. They were killed by
falling fragments mid their coichmnn Is not
expected to recover. Some thirty other per
sons were more or less Injured Kolanoff a
mangled rcmnlns were found nmong tht
rutTis. The czar and crarlna drove by Just
twenty-five minutes later Many arrests bavt
been made In Moscow and the Russian prest
has been forbidden to refer to the matter.
