Amazing Experiences of for Foreign Affairs in negro Who Was in Prison Storing Dynamite, Constantinople, May 7.--Michalo Ju- the former minister of for Montenegro, vanovitch, joreign affairs has just narrates a thrilling experience. In October, 1907, he and about of fipance, were condemned in Monte uegro to 15 years' hard labor for having agninst the dynasty of King Nicholas. All these statesmen are said to have belonged to what is known on the Bal- kon Peninsula as "the Black Hand." a secret league with extremwy revoln tionary tendencies. If is very widely spread throughout the kingdoms of Montenegro, Servia and Bulgaria. The condemned men were incarcerat ed in the terrible fortress of Podgorit- za, called "Youssouvatcha," where po litical prisoners are detaimed. Juvan ovitch and his unfortunate comrades had been caught im the act of storing up large quantities af dynamite in the house of the foreign minister for the purpose, it is said, of blowing up the king's palace. All the time of their detention the prisoners had to wear heavy chains on | their feet. The chains of Juvanovitch | weighed 11 pounds. About ten months ago they conceived a plan of escape from the fortress. It consisted in dig- ging a ron passage. It was xt us undertaking, fall of difficulties and perils. It was crowned, however, with complete sue cess, owing solely to the courage and perseverance of Juvanovitch. He and Radoviteh, who were confin- ed to one cell, feigned serious illness, Their chains were ®useguently remov ed. During the night-time they began digging the passage. The accumulat- od earth they succeeded in disposing of, little by little, down the drain. Fou over six months the work went on quietly and assideouwsly without any interruption. One of the warders, however, noticed that the attitude of the two statesmen was not that of persons stricken with illness, He reported his suspicion to the medical attendant. For a while it roomed that the prisovers' cause was lost. Juvanovitelt, however, contimued to play his role with such admirable skill that the suspicions of the war- der und - doctor were soon completely dispelled. The digging of the subterranean passage went on for another © two months, The intrepid couple intended also that it thould communicate with the other celis where the rest of their colleagues were incarcerated. These, too, contributed their own share of the work Ly digging.

The arrests made in 1907 were the outcome of a plot to assmssinate cer tain members of the cabinet and the entourage of the ruling prince, now hing Nicholas. With their disappear- ance it was hoped that there would be a general rising on beball of the radi cal party. H the prince proved recal citrant it was decided that his life alo should be sacrificed, and the crown prince placed on the throne.
