B?" our cable n.ews last weeft \t would be seen that a diabolical plot has been discovered to poison the whole of tho Imperial family of Russia. This appalling tragedy was to be effected by the connivance of the baker at the Royal Palaoe at Pelerhoff, where the Emperor and Empress and their children are at present residing. Strychnine, one of the most deadly poisons, was to be employed, but fortunately the murderous conspiracy was discovered m time, A short time ago a prominent Russian statesman declared that Vera Philipera, who was recently arrested, was the head of the Nihilist Executive Committee, and that her arrest had broken up and disbanded the Nihilists. It is clear, however, from this fresh attempt to kill the Czar, the second within a few inon'hs, that the Nihilists are as active and powerful as ever.
