W., WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.— Fears even deeper than those hitherto entertained are felt to- night for Miss Stone, the Ameri- can missionary, held captive by Bulgarian brigands. Her situation is most desper- ate. She is in the hands of men who will not hesitate to commit murder if they themselves believe that the ecrime will facilitate their escape. Aware that the military forces of Bulgaria and the Turk- ish Government are prepared to attack them at a favorable opportunity, Miss Stone’s abductors must receive the ran- som without delay or else they will Kkill their captive. The time limit fixed for the payment of the ramsom expired on Tues- day. It is thus three days overdue, and the sum demanded has not yet been raised. That the brigands appreciate the dangerous situation in_which they have tound themseives is shown by the fact of their return into Turkish territory. The State Department understood that the Turkish Government had so disposed its troops along the frontier that the brigands would be unable to enter into the interior of the country. It is believed here that the brigands are moving from place to place along the boundary line, seeking refuge first in Bulgarian and then in Turkish territory. To both govern- ments the United States is making most urgent representations not to authorize an attack, Oniy by fair dealing, in_the opinion of this Government, can Miss Stone be rescued. After careful considera- tion of the matter the authorities have decided that the wisest course is to ran- som Miss Stone, and once she is released and actually in safety, then the Bulgarian or Turkish Government will be urged to relieve the countries of the disgrace of brigandage.

Such preparations were made by the Greek Government in 1870, in the case of the party of English and Italian vis! ors held captive by brigands, and the lat- ter, in order ‘to facilitate their escape, kilied their prisoners. It is surprising to - | the United States that the abductors of Miss Stone have not coupled with the de- mand for ransom a demand for amnesty, as was done in 1870 by the Greek brigands. Great Britain urged upon Greece to grant the amnesty desired, but the Athens Goverument was unable to comply on ac- count of constitutional limitations, though it agreed to permit an English warship to convey the men safaly to Malta after they had released their prisoners. The United urge Bulgaria_and Turkey to nesty to Miss Stone’s captors. CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 11.—In com- pliance with a request from Washington the search by Ottoman troops for the ab- ductors of Miss Stone, the American mis- has been abandoned, it being feared that the brigands would kill her should they be closely pursued.

The second appeal BOSTON, Oct. 11, 1901 To the People of America: The promptings of our hearts compel us to issue a second ur- gent appeal to the people of America to come to the rescue of Miss Eilen M. Stome, the American missionary now heid captive by the brigands in the Balkan Mountains for a ran- som of $110,000. Nearly one-half that sum is yet to be raiseds Private advices received vesterday were to the effect that it was absolutely necessary to raise the full amount at once. The story of thirty days' respite s absolutely discredited in the best-informed circles. To-day's information from Washington is | that the outlook is far from being reassuring, as_was hoped yesterday. The public should not be decetved by the idea that the American Boerd, as such, will pay any of the ransom. It has officlally declared that it could not, although its members have unanimously expressed sympathy with the movement.

Another Appeal for Funds. BOSTON, Oct. 11.—The misunderstand- ing existing in various parts of the coun- try indicated especially in private ad- vices received here as to the progress of the fund to ransom Miss Stone, the mis- slonary, is considered to be sufficient rea- son for the issuance of another appeal for funds by the clergymen who signed the first one. The idea is to impress upon the X3 missionary, a patriot and a noble American. All contributions should be sent direct to Kidder, Peabody & Co., 115 Devonshire street, Boston, or Baring, Magoun & Co. 15 Wall street, New York. AIl money contributed will be returned to the donors in case its use is not necessary or in the event of its being here- after returned by or through the United States Government.

MINERS STRIKE RICH PAY DIRT Take Out $10,000 From a Single Claim in Three Days. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Oct. 11.—Advices from Daw- son state that some remarkably rich dirt is being taken out on Livingstone Creek, in the Big Salmon district. Ten thousand dollars from one clean-up, representing the work of three men for as many days, is the record given. made on the claim of a man named Peters. The property of a Dawson syndicate ad- joining Peters’ clalm also shows good prospects, $40 being taken from one small crevice. The gold on Livingstone is reported to be very coarse. Livingstone has thus far made the best showing of any creek in the district. There are several other claims which have been demonstrated to be worth working. Sufficient work has not yet been done on the rest to locate the | pay streak. ‘Will Claim Gold Royalty. VICTORIA, B. C., Oct. 1L.—The steamer Danube brought from the north to-day $105,900 in golddust for the North Ameri- can Trading and Transportation Com- pany. Officials of the company were here to receive it and will to-morrow offer it for sale at the provincial assay office and claim the rebate of 1 per cent of the Do- minion royalty paid to Klondike miners marketing thelr gold here. There is a question as to whether the Government will allow the royalty to a company, it having been offered to induce the individ- ual miners to market their gold here. Figures on Nome Traffic. SEATTLE, Oct. 11.—Statistics carefully compiled disclose that 9000 persons went to Nome this season and that 10,200 have returned or are returning, leaving about 4000 in the district for the winter—less than spent last winter there. There were eighty vessels, steam and sail, engag in the traffic, carrying from this city 55,000 tons of general frelght. The estimated receipts for the transportation of freight and passengers are $1,874,000, and the value of the freight shipped from Seattle $5,- 500, About_$4,500,000 gold has been shipped from Nome this season.

REDDING, Oct. 11.—An exciting inci- | dent occurred in the trial of the partner- | ship suit of S. J. Eldred vs. Frank Story in the Superior Court this afternoon, in which a well known lawyer and lawmaker was fined for contempt by Judge Edward Sweeny. Ex-Assemblyman T. W. H. Shanahan represents the plaintiff and ex- Senator Frank Sprague and General W. D. Tillotson the defendant. In addressing the court Shanahan became excited and insinuated that the court was declding the case before hearing the evidence. Judge Sweeny silenced the attorney, ad- ministered a’ scathing rebuke and fined Shanahan $20 for contempt. Shanahan thought better of his words and declared that he belleved the court fair and capable. Drawing out two ‘$10 Dbills, he sald the fine would cripple him financially. Judge Sweeny finally remit- ted the fine and General Tillotson’s sug- gestion to adjourn court for the time was not heeded. o SR Father Caraher Coming Home. CHICAGO, Oct. 11.—The Rev. E.

Special Dispatch to The Call. YREKA, Oct 1l.—Henry Koester, City Trustee and financier, is dead from a self- Inflicted pistol wound in the head. Koes- ter shot himself in an outbuilding at his new home on Tuesday. When found he was conscious. Dr. Collar found that the bullet had gone into the right ear, rang- ing upward and lodging in-the brain. Koester’s vitality, however, was remark- able, as he lingered until yesterday. There seems to be no doubt that the deed was committed while Koester was suffering from mental aberration. For several years Henry Koester s ducted the Miners’ Home and he accu(;:a- lated a competercy, retiring only recently from the active management of that in. stitution. He built a fine home and was in a position to enjoy life when he took means to end it. In the last city election he was chosen to fill the position of Trus- tee, and he was a useful member of the board. He was comparatively a youn man, being in his forty-first year, an was a native of California. His family consists of a wife and two children, a girl and a boy. Koester's father committed sulcide in Yreka years ago hy drowning himself. Sues for Breach of Promise.

Heavy Lemon Train Strikes and Demolishes Motor Car- rying Workingmen. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 11.—In a head-end collision between a lemon train and a work. train on the Colegrove branch of the Santa Monica electric road this morn- ing filve men were killed and six in- Jured, five serlously. The accident occur- red on a steep grade a half mile east of Sherman, at 7 o’clock. The killed: ELMER E. VINSON., J. TURNER. ED WEIR, A. JOHNSON, AUGUSTUS KORSE. The injured: §. Wartner, J. Nelson, George Noonan, Willlam Cameron, E. W. Flannagan and H, L. Pritchard. The Colegrove branch of the Los An- geles and Paclific Electric Company, on which the accident occurred, is a single track line, and from the stories told by those concerned the wreck was unavoida- ble. A dense fog and slippery rails are, in a great measure, responsible for the disaster. The work train, consisting of two flat cars and a light motor car, start- ed out of Sherman for Laurel Canyon, two miles east. Eleven or twelve laborers were riding on the flat cars in charge of Foreman Reuter. A dense fog made it impossible to see beyond the train’s length. About the same time a lemon train, con- sisting of two heavily loaded freight cars and a heavy motor car, left the packing house at Colegrove, west bound. e grade west to Sherman is down hill, which fact, coupled with slippery rails from the fog, caused the train to shoot down hill at a high speed. Just east of the scene of the accident there is a sharp curve. On rounding this Motorman Pritchard of the lemon train saw the work train and called to the conductor and another man to jump, at the same time leaping from the flying car. The trains came together with a crash, the heavier motor climbing over the work train and crushing the laborers on the Motorman Vinson of the work Some of the injured men in the hospital in this city are not expected to recover. @ ciirieieleiieivisideiieleleininle b @ FIRE DENUDING FOREST TRACTS Flames Sweep Through Monterey County Foothills. ——— SALINAS, Oct. 11.—Dense clouds of smoke enveloped Salinas to-night and the skies were lighted up in several directions by forest fires in the Santa Lucla and Gabilan hills. Conflagrations started in the neighborhood of Agenda and spread southward toward King City. It is re- ported that hunters left a camp fire burn- ing, which ignited the underbrush and the flames were soon getting beyond control. Nearly 300 acres of timber have been de- stroyed and the fire is unchecked. The Santa Lucla range fire started near the old reservoir of the Pacific Im- provement Company, back of Monterey and Pacific Grove. Several hundred acres of pines, cypress, scrub oak, manzanita and other timber have been consumed and the flames are spreading. e fire can be seen from Salinas. Unless rain falls or the fires can be got under control by the men fighting them the loss will be very heavy. During the day the heat here has been intolerable because of the fire. To-night the atmosphere is stifling and smoky. SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 11.—A heavy grass fire started on the Fort Baker reserva- tion late this afternoon, and despite the |- efforts of the soldiers stationed there and aid from Sausalito the flames are sweep- ing up the hills from the fort to Point Bonita. The principal damage will be to the dry grass and fencing. Owing to the prompt work of the soldiers several build- ings that were threatened early in the evening were saved. The damage to pas- ture, even though the flames spread, will be slight, as the rainy season is due. WARD POLITICIAN IS CHARGED WITH MURDER Peter Cassidy Accused of the Killing of James A. Posey in San Diego. SAN DIEGO, Oct. 11.—As a result of the very positive evidence brought out at the inquest over the body of James A. Posey, who was shot in his saloon Tuesday night, Peter Cassidy, a saloon-Keeper and poli- tician of the Fifth Ward, was arrested to- day on the charge of murder. His prelim- inary examination was set for Monday morning at 10 o'clock and his motion for bail was denied, with leave to remew it to-morrow morning, though the intima- tion of the court was that no bond would be fixed prior to the preliminary examin- ation. Two . witnesses at the inquest testified that Cassidy was at the saloon door when the shot that killed Posey was fired from that direction.
