It is Proposed to Organize n Police Service of All Nations Which Would Deal Es- pecially With the Class of ¥en From Whom Spring the Assassins of Eminent Fersons. Rome, (By cable.) ~The anpti-anarchist conference was opened Thursday afternoon in the Corsini Palace by Vice-Admiral Cane- varo, minister of foreign affairs. All the European nations were represented. in an address of welcome to the delagates on behalf of King Humbert Admiral Cane- varo sald he recognized the difficulties be- fore the conference, but that the general recognition of the necessity for common ae- tion against the anarchists presaged happy issue, Admiral Canevaro was elected president. It is expected that the conference will be prolonged until Christmas, The antl-anarchist conference was invit- ed by Italy because most of the anarchists whose crimes have lately startled Europe bave been Italians. The immediate cause of the gathering being summoned was the assassination of Empress Elizabeth of Aus- tria by Luigi Luccheni at Geneva, Switzer- land, Beptember 10 last, Luecchen| was re- cently sentenced to imprisonment for life, the maximum penalty allowed by law at Geneva. Another comparatively recent crime of the same kind which startled the world was the killing of Senor Canovas del Castillo, premier of Spain, by Michele Auglolilio at the Santa Agueda baths, Spain, August 5, 1897. The formation of a plot by auarchists at Alexandria, Egypt, severnl weeks ago to kill Emperor William while he was on his way to Palestine has been cited as an addi- tional instance showing the need of the cos- ference. It is not known who instigated the attempt to wreck the Czar's tralp, but there is a belief that anarchists may have been at the bottom of It, too. In calling the conference Italy summitted the following proposals: *“1. Anarchists should be considered as delinquents at common law and not politi- cal criminals; crimes committed by them should be judged according to common law, **2. Extradition, which is at present re- fused because anarchists are considered political refugees, should be established, “3. Ways and means should be organized by the press, “4, The organization of an international police service against anarchists should be formed by the police of the European countries.” ENGINEERS ORDERED TO CUHA.
