Plot snd Plan Destruction of
Government Buildings
WASHINGTON POST’S EXPOSE

Were oof Napping.
Washington. June 17 —I he
Post tomorrow will publish au ex
posure of a plot which had for its
object the destruction of the Capi
tol and perhaps other government
buildings which had slowly
developing for several weeks past.
Fhe secret service and police au
thorities, however, have been kepi
informed of the movements of the
plotters and would have been mi
abled to thwart them had tbair
machinations approached actual
violence.
‘•Only once,” says The Post “about
three' weeks ago, when the channel of
infoimaticn was unexpectedly inter
rupted, were the federal and district
ufhorities really alarmed. They did
not know at what moment an atte.uj t
might be made to explode bombs in
the capital, the treasury building the
white house and the war ana navy
buildings.
But as the days passed and n th
i/ig was done the authorities, who
hadredoubled their vigilance,restore f
the line of communication with the
n, 4 of anarchists and were able
again to shadow every compi atcr
and to keep iullv informed of an
archistic movements, both here and
elsewhere.’’
a half-breed’s plot.
According to the story tho plot
•vas formed at the time Coxey’r
irmy was marching to the capi
al, and rep. rts of its existence
came from various points—Omaha
Chicago and Pittsburg, among
hem. The prime mover in the
anarchistic plot —that is, the
Washington end of it—was Hon
ore JaX'>n.
He came from Chicago, and is
-<ri|l in the city He is a profes
sional Indian. In Chicago he has
been a disturber for years. At the
time of the Haymarket riot, be
narrowly escaped being arrest
ed as a principal conspirator, and
was shadowed by the detectives
for a long time after that most
memorable affair.
Jaxon is a half-breeded of un
known tribal origan. He was one
of Louis Ried’s lieutenants in the
Canadian rebellion some years
go. The man has done some lit
tle newspaper work, and has frequ
ently passed himself off as a re
porter for The Chicago Times.
OFFICIALS WARNED
After Jaxon’s arrival here let
ters were received by the secret
r zice officers and capi'oi officials
.lotifyiiig ‘.hem that a baud of an
uebistswas being organized u
Washington, and that H. J. Jax
on, of Chicago, was the leading
spirit.
Independent investigations sat
■sfied the officers that the writerol
rhe letters was telling the truth,
and since then says The Post,
secret service men and local de
tectives havejbeeu constantly en
gaged watching the band • The
informant in 'the case has kept
in touch with the conspirators
and given the police the names of
those engaged in the plot together
wi’h other facts.
These have Deen communicated
o tne officials of other cities, and.
they will probably act upon the
strength of the information thus
given.
WATTED FOB DEVELOPMEMTB
“Tile. fact that the anarchists have
committed no act in Washington,”
savs The tost article, “upon which

Mr. George J. Briant, came in
today from his home in CtJulio.
and brings the news of a water
spout aud storm, ou Spring Creek,
the like of which the oldest in
habitants have never witnessed
before.
Mr. Briant says that ab u 4
o’clock yesterday afternoon tin
clouds which hud gathered ovei
Chulio district seemed to burst
and the rain fell in deluges. The
wind was high and many mon
arches of the forest as well as the
growing crops were leveled to I In
earth ; the trees laid low forever
and (he waiving grain—until the
summer suu shall coax it up once
more.
Fences that were not caught
in the flo cis »f the swoleu creeks
, and swept away were in mar.v
places blown down by the wind,
Mr. Bryant says that the princi
pal damage is the heavy washings
on hill side and bottom.
H“ estimated his own dntnag.
at $3,000, and says that scores of
■ there are injured heavily.
But. said Mr. Briant,the people o;
Uhulio pre not cast down for we arW

the grain is tine too.
Mr Briant has harvested nearly 1,
000 bushels, himself. He however,
happened to the misfortune of having
one stack of about one hundred bush
els burned up. The fire was caused
by a spark from the engine of the
threshing n,achin'’.
