Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., May 10. - Five sticks oí dynamite with fuse and caps were found by a man known as Anderson in the outhouse of Mrs. Labert on Water street, about 500 feet from the locks. It is thought the orders for a special farce of guards on the locks came from Detroit and the governm'em has information through its secret service agents that an attempt is to be made to blow the locks or power house up, which would cause millions of dollars' loss. Another stick of dynamite was found back of the Postal Telegraph building with the fuse partly burned. The guards wilt not allow any one on the docks after dark without inspection and sailors are not allowed to leave their boats when locking through. Two suspected spies have been in town several days who are being closely watched by the pólice. It is likely the guard will be üoubled and a strong forcé of guards also placed on the Canadian lock. The guard gate above the lock is not completed and if the locks should be seriously incapacitated it would be almost impossible to use them again this season. ,
