GUNDLACH, n16-3m° SALLIE HELD FOR A RANSOM. A Reward of 85,000 for the Return of Miss Moore. Sallie Moore, a pretty Kentucky girl, myste- riously disappeared in New York city on the afternoon of January 16. She had been in New York three months with her sister, Mrs. W. W. Cornell, at No. 133 West 103d street. She was a high-spirited, rather dignified southern girl, who wanted to earn her own living in order to be independent of her relatives. ‘When she left her sister's house on the morn- ing of the day on which she disappeared she went for the purpose of secking employment, was in good humor and promised to return Her sister had remonstrated with her, saying it was not necessary for her to seck a situation, as she could live with her. A most thorough search was made for the missing girl by the police officials, newspapers and hundreds of private citizeus. A reporter succeeded in tracing Miss Moore to one store on 23d street, where she returned a small pack- age for her sister. Then she went to another place and tried to match a sample of dress oods, About 3 o'clock she visited a place on ‘est 14th street, where she applied for a posi- tion as cashier, but the position had been filled just before she arrived. Hundreds of people who think they have seen ‘Mise Moore have written to Mrs, Cornell. The supposed clues were followed up, but they | amounted to nothing. In last Sunda: ‘pers Mr. Cornell raised the reward of $200 he had previously offered to #500, and on Monday night he received the following letter, which was signed “N. Y. W. B.2” The advance from $200 to #500 is fair, but much too trivial for us to consider.” Not a cent less than €5,C00 would even tempt ‘This is the riskiest work ever atteinpted by us and mast be correspond- ingly profitable.

Treachery ineane the certain death of Sallie Moore. ‘Mr. and Mrs. Cornell were astounded by the letter. They showed it to Sree McLaugh- lin's detectives. It was decided to keep the matter secret and try and capture the black- mailer. On Wednesday morning the following per- sonal appeared in a morning paper: 3 am wi ™ _— - JANITOR. Last evening Mr. Cornell received a second letter from N.Y. B. W. It read: Proposition submitted to you is ultimate, N.Y. BW. Both letters were undated. They were writ- ten upon light manila papor. The address m the envelopes, “Janitor, No. 133 West 102d street,” like the contents of the letter, was rinted in small and uniform letters in black Kk. In some mysterious manner the fact that the blackmailing letters had been received leaked out yesterday and was published in the after- noon papers. Lust night Mr. Cornell decided that the premature publishing of the letters had prevented any meeting with “‘N. Y. B. W.,” 80 he gave copies of them to the press, “I don't know what to think about the letters,” said he, last evening. “It is hard to believe that any ‘one has captured Sallie and is detaining her fore ransom, yet these letters may be genuine. The premature publishing of the fact that the letters were reccived has, of course, ‘spoiled any chance of a negoiia- tion. ‘If Sallie is being detained we want to ‘find her, and rather than have anything happen to her wo would give up all the mouey we have. Possibly some crank wrote the letters just to scare us, or itis even possible that some people are trying to force money out of us, or, in other words, that they aro simply playing's bunco ‘and know nothing about We hall continue the is search, for it seems to us now that Sall either in captivity or has committed suicide. Mrs, Cornell is much worried over the receipt of the letters and che failure to carry out ins Inid by the «tetectives to find her sister. “I believe there is foul play the work of a crank, still Sallie ma; tivity, or even worse. I don’t thi i herself to suicide, so there secms to be nothing else to believe except that eke is detained. “If there was any truth in the letters we should have found Sallie had not the matter been published.

THE INCORPORATORS ORGANIZING UNDER THE ACT OF COXGRESS—A COMMITTEE To SEE TO THE TRANSFER OF TITLE—A SKETCH OF AN ENTERPRISE WHICH PROMISES NUCH. A meeting of the incorporators of the Prot- estant Episcopal Cathedral Foundatiog of the District was held on the Ist instant at the resi- dence of Mr. Charles C. Glover, 20 Lafayette place. The act of Congress approved January 6 ultimo incorporating the enterprise was ac- cepted and was signed by the following: Bishop, Wm. Paret, Chief Justice M. W. Fuller, Judge Walter 8. Cox, Rey. Dr. Randolph H. McKim, Gen, John G. Parke, Henry E. Pellew, John A. Kagsan, Charles C. Glover, George Truesdell, Edward J. Stellwagen, Alexander T. Britton, W. Noyes and Vice President Levi P. Morton. A committee was appo:nted, consisting of Mesers. George ‘Truesdell, AT. Britton, Chas. €. Glover, Theodore W, Noyes and Gen. John G. Parke, to take charge of the property and in- terests of the corporation, with the special pur- pote of securing for the corporation title to th property which has been deeded to trustees for itor which has been donated but not deeded. When this is done the incorporators will meet and organize. In addition to those named above the following are _ incor. posters: John 8. B. Hodges and) William eyser of Maryland, Rev. Geo. W. Douglass, Gen. Thos. L. Casey and John M. Wilson of the District, Wm. C, Whitney of New York, | Geo. W. Childs of Pennsylvania, John S. Lind say of Massachusetts, Marshall Field of Ilinois, Geo. F. Edmunds of Vermont, Geo. W. Curtis Lee and William Wirt Henry of Virginia. ‘The bishop of the diocese of which the Dis- trict shall or may forma partis named by the act as chairman of the board of trustees. Gen. | Parke was chosen temporary secretary. The act of incorpora‘ionfurther provides: | “Said corporation is hereby empowered to establish and maintain within the District of Columbia a cathedral and institutions of learning for the romotion of religion and education and char- ity. grant and confer diplomas and the usual co lege and university degrees and honorary de- grees, and also such other powers as may be necessary fully to carry ont and execute the general purposes of the said corporation as herein appearing.” The history of this enterprise dates from the ring of 1891, when Miss Maun, a rexident of this cliy. mad'a deed of ‘property valued, ft ts estimated, at £80,000, to be the nucicus of the future endowment of the cathedral foundation, Bishop Paret entered heartily into the spirit of this undertaking. On the 8th day of December, 1891, a meeting | was called. This mecting was held at the resi- Glover, and it will be considered in the history of’ this enterprise as the first formal step toward the inangu- ration of the movement. Bishop Pu was present and among others who were there were J.C. Bancroft Davis, Gen. John A. Kasson, Charles C. Glover, Fran- cis G. Newlands, George Truesdell,’ B. H. Warder, Gen. Jobn E. Parke, Col. A. T. Britton, Charles M. Matthews, Henry E. Pellew, John T. Arms, Thomas Hyde, Lewis J. Davis, Heury E. Davis, A. C. Barney, Gen. 8. V. Benet, Wi!l- iam C, Hill, Edward J. Stellwagen, Charles J. Bell, H. K. ‘Viele and R. H. Goldsborough. THE SITE CHOSEN. Acommittee was appointed to select a site. Their decision was announced in the course of acouple of weeks, The site selected is a beautiful tract of land lying between the Klin- gle and the Woodley roads to the west of the Zoological Park and adjoining on the north Woodley Park. It is on (ge line of Connecticut avenue extended and the Rock Creek railroad and contains some twenty-ex acres. The location is commended because of the attractiveness of the site.

Detectives from Philadelphia and Baltimore came here yesterday and «uw the prisoners, but were unable to identify any of them. lev. Father Rosentelle of Rockville, who was robbed by members of the gung, also called at head- quarters, as did Prosecuting Attorney Peters of Montgomery county. A pair of shoes as well as the overeost found at the house of Mrs, Lackey were ulentified by Father osentelle as bis property. A Maryland officer said that if there was any likelihood of the escape of the prisoners be would guarantee a ten years’ sentence in Mary- land for some of them: As published in yesterday's Star witnesses went before the grand jury yesterday and told of the extensive operations of the gang, which wasa startling revelation and a complete sur- prise both to the prosecuting officer aud the members of the grand jury. — James Brady, a young man living in South Washington, was the victim of a chain of unfor- tunate circumstances last evening. He was employed to watch a row of buildings for Mr. Waggaman, and after locking his buildings he went off to South Washington, where he in- dulged in something stronger than water. He was on 2d street about midnight and two colored men attacked him. During the fight Brady was severely handied, and when Potice- man Espey found him he was lying on the side- walle, face was badiy bruised and he will suffer from the effects of the beating for some time to come. “I arrested him for plain drunk,” said the policeman to Judge Kimball this morning, “but when I got to the station I founda bunch of keys in his pocket and so I charged him with suspicion.” keys belonged to Mr. Waggaman and the prisoner had a right tohave them.

The principal change is the reductior | of $100,000 in the appropriation for the work of the bureau of animal industry, but under hanged conditions it is not believed that the decrease will seriously affect the operations of the bureau. | ‘There is intended to be proposed au amend- | ment providing that the packers of the country | be assested astaall fee for the inspection of their meat. This expense has been heretofore | borne by the government, though the packers | | receive the benefits of the inspection and are enabled to secure about $1.50 per head more for the cattle having the official approval of the de- partment than for uninspected cattle. | The cost of stamping out plecro-pnenmonia | last vear was about €370,000. The amount saved on this account and the probable assess- ment of a small fee from packers having their | meat inspected, it is believed, will offset the re- | | duetion made by the House committee.

The Conference Committee to Consider the Hunton Amendment. The crowded calendar of the House and the press of important business of a general nature before that body gives little hope to the friends of the District that the proposed liquor bills for the District will be given an opportunity for considera: It was this knowledge and an appreciation of the present inadequate condition of the liquor laws of che District that led Senator Me- Millan to offer as an amendment to the District appropriation bill the Han- ton license bill. This bill is prob-| ably all that the citizens of this city can hope for in the way of liquor legislation at this session | of Congress. Whether or not even this much | can be obtained now rests with the conference | committee which will act on the District bill.

Unless something be done in this direction the District of Columbia will lose this revenue, and persons will have the right | upon tendering ihe amount of the licens to seil liquor and establish livery stables where | they pleased. That is the necessity for the | simendment. | ‘The amendment which is now attached to the District bill and which will probably be the onty | liquor legiriation which the District will obtain | at this session is measure drafted by the at- | torney for the District, the object of which is to make the present law effective. The bill is as follows: | “That from and after the passage of this act it ehail not be lawful for any person or per- sons in the District of Columbia to engage | in the trades, business and professions pecitied in ‘the act of the late legislative assembly of the District of Co- lumbia, entitled ‘An act imposing a license on trades, business and professions practiced or carried on in the District of Colu bia,’ approved = August. 23, ASTI, and the ‘amendment thereto ‘approved June 20, 1872, except such parts thereof as have been repealed, without first having ob- tained a license thercfor in accordance with the provisions of said act of assembly and said amendment, and any person engaging in any of said trades or in the business and profession ed ia esd act and the said out first having obtained a license therefor in accordance with the provisions of said act and the said amendment thereto, or whe eball engage in any business’ in any part of the said Disirict where by exist- | ing Inw a license is probibited, shall, on conviction thereof in the Police Court of the District of Columbia, be fined not less than 210 nor more than $100, and a like fine cr penalty for each subsequent offense, and in default of payment of such fine he or she shall be imprisoned in the common jail of said District not to exceed twelve months. Provided, That whenever the approval of the Commiasioners is required to any application for a license under existing law or under regulation adopted by | suid Commissioners according to law, no shall be deemed to have such license until be or she shail have obtained such approval.” ae ‘The Indian Appropriation Bul. ‘The Indian appropriation bill, which will be reported to the House today, carries an appro- priation of over 7,500,000, being uo material change from that of last year. A slight increase is made in tag approprin- tion to carry out treaty stipulations, it being about $3,500,000. ‘The appropriaticn for Indian schools, about €2,000,000, isa reduc- tion from last year’s appropriation for that marpose, the cut being made in the amount fore given for industrial schools and school buildings.
