BT. PETERSBUBG. Sept. 2. -A well
laid plot against the life of the emperor
and one with. all the chancer of success,
on its side wee uncovered today by the
arrest of two armed terrorists, a man and
woman, In the quarters of one of the ser
vants of the Alexandria palace, Peterhof,
Mi majesty's closely guarded residence
on Cronstadt bay' The servant's eon and
another lackey named Klemm Klepnlkoff,
who were concerned. In smuggling, t the
terrorists through the guards, were ar
rented also. .. . .
Emperor Nicholas has been expected to
return to reterhof this week, and It la
presumed that the terrorists Intended to
shoot him-while he wir promenading or
playing with his 'children In the palace
grounds.
Part of the great park at Peterhof Is
protected on" one side by the waters of
the bay and on the three sides it is en
chased by a High wall surmounted with
Iron spikes. This wall la constantly pa
trolled . by trusted Cossacks. Inside . the
pnlace grounds the only buildings are the
unpretentious palace and two or three
smaller houses for the servants.

The ramlflcatloni of the conspiracy, In
which "arrest 'have been.! reported almost
dally since September 16. when a lackey
and several others were arrested, are ex
tensive and may1 possibly have Included
two or more subdivisions, one directed
at the emperor and the other against
Grand Duke Nicholas. The arrests of
these lackeys explain the manner In which
threatening letters were Introduced Into
the apartments of, the emperor.
K general campaign J of- arrests and
domiciliary visitations was Inaugurated in
SU Petersburg today. It Is not connected
with th Peterhof plot, but Is an out
come' the recent arrival of Warsaw so
cialists, who came to assist their St. Pe
tersburg conferees in organising a reign
of terror here. '
Several consignments of arms and am
munition which arrived by rail have beenH
seised. An interesting comedy was played
In the matter of one consignment. The
police became cognisant of this shipment
and secretly set a watch on it In the hope
of apprehending the consignees. . When
they arrived' to carry away the arma the
revolutionists perceived, this trap, set their
own spies and almost aucceeded In getting
the arms from under, the very noses of the
officers. Similar selsures of. ammunition
and arms are reported from Warsaw and
Moscow.
Replying to a .telegram of congratulation
from the League of Russian People at
Tellsavetgrad upon the "energy" displayed
by the troops in the recent massacre at
Bledlce, Colons) Tlkhanoff, - who was in
commtchd of the garrison during tha ex

'Greeting to the loyal Russian people,

The first definite news from the Mis
sissippi delta was received - today. It
showed that the delta land had been
flooded, that hundreds of fishermen had
been driven from their homes Into lug
gers, but that despite the wrecKlng of
someof these boats, loss of life was prob
ably small. Property damage alone the
lower river, however, was widespread.
Reports from the northeast, in Mfssls-
sippl, were like those from the east and
south In stating that loss of life had been
small. Reports from Mississippi points,
the electric parade being the same aa in
however, were very scarce, despite the
fact that several railroad lines and many
telegraph wires run from here Into that
state, and this fact was taken to indicate
that the storm covered a wide area in
lta northward course yesterday.
Great damage to the cotton crop was re
ported In dlspatchea to the cotton ex

20 per cent damage. Gall man, Miss., re

a pilot who came up from the mouth oi
the Viver on the tugboat Charles .Clark. '
(.Ansel aald he saw the lower, river banks
strewn with "household furnitnr of 'fisher
man, but that most of these families 'had
escaped from the-high watef by taking
to .their lugger figged boats. He saw the
wreckage of two or three lugger floating
down th river, but waa unable to-learn
what 'became of their occupants. 'At the
Mississippi , river quarantine station two
house boats, used for the quartering of
crews of fruit steamers, were sunk, Thu
crews were taken off In safety.
Story Told by Aaael.
Ansel said: "As we came up the river
from Port1 Eads yesterday afternoon we
found the quarantine atatlon unharmed, I
but the two boats used to quarter crews,,
which are tsken off fruit ships at quaran
tine, had been broken to pieces by the
storm and . had sunk. Their occupants
were rescued without much difficulty.
"At several places I saw wooden cis
terns, which stand above the ground and
are used by fishermen, lying on the river
banks. There were also quantities of
household furniture, especially bedroom ar
ticles. I do not believe that there was
much, if any, loss of life among the fisher
men. They put their families aboard their
luggers arid took shelter Jn the bayous
when the storm drove the water Inland.
We saw the wreckage of two or three lug
gers floating in the river. Unless thel;
occupants were rescued by other luggere
they were probably drowned. I saw few
persons along the Shore when we passed
these places, about. $ o'clock . yesterday
afternoon. There was probably three to
four feet of water over this- part of the
land when th tide was at Its height.
"The two- United States mail boats are
safe. During the hurricane at Ptlottown
we spent an uneasy night, but I am cer
tain that no lives were lost there. All
Ithe inhabitants ot the jetties came aboard
the, two pilot ooats. wnarvesgna gang
ways were broken or washed at Fllot-
town.

Mrs. J. W. Edwards o? 2733 Fow-
ler St., Omaha, Neb., says: "I must
say that I had not muchconfldence
In Doan'a Kidney Pills before I used '
them, but I waa troubled with symp
toms of kidney complaint and suf
fered sq severely, that I was com--,
pelled'to do something, and went to,
Kuhn V Co.'s drug store for a box. .
They soon convinced me of their
value, andafter completing rne treat
ment I was not troubled." (From
statement mad In 1900.)
PERMANENT CURE.
The statement I made in the spring
of 1899 about Doan'a Kidney Pllla
curing me of backache and symptoms,
of kidney complaint, which clung to
me for five or six year and at times
made me quite miserable, was not
only true, but during the yeara which
have elapsed the cure then effected
has practically been permanent."
