THE PRINCE.
PLOT TO KIDNAP HIM. a ORGANISED BY SINN FEINERS. Received Dec. 13, 12.5 a.m. London, Dec. 8. The London Correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger states that a matur* Sinn Fein plot for the capture of the Prince of Wales at a small Canadian railway station failed through the leakage of information from Ireland to Scotland Yard.
It appears that the plotters had motor ears waiting, and intended to hide the Prince in the mountains, demanding a ransom of a considerable amount. An Irish-American band is said to be involved.—United Service.
