RUSSIA AIDING INSURGENTS. Diplomatist Says Their Ammunition Comes From Odessa. BERLIN, Sept. 14.~The Tageblatt pub- lishes an interview with a diplomatist who holds a position in Bulgaria, in the course of which he is reported to have sald: Bulgaria wishes a war with Turkey. For this purpose the explosions on board the Hungarian steamer kapu were caused. They were in- tended to ke place when the vessel was at Conetantigople. in order to bring about a mas. sacre of the Bulgarians by the Turks, and it was hoped that this massacre would lead to in- tervention by the powers. The plan, however, falled. owing to the delay in the departure of the steamer from Varna. In reply to the question why Turkey had not yet quelled the uprising in Mace- donia the diplomat sald: ‘The ammunition for the insurgents comes not only from Bulgaria, but aleo from Odessa, Rus- sia. This fact is ‘well known to Turkey and she is undecided ax to taking an energetic step against Bulgaria, beczuse she fears that Rus. sia will prevent her. Why shouid Turkey sire & successful war with Bulgaria, when, ter the successful Greek war, she was assured by the Embassadors that Crete wae lost to her? Macedonia 1s not Crete, and it will not be easy to maneuver Turkey out of that province. s v be s ABDUL’S HEART IS TOUCHED. Grieves Over Macedonia’s Failure to Appreciate Kindly Rule, WASHINGTON, Bept. 14.—Chekib Bey, the Turkish Minister, has received from the Imperial Government the copy of note sent by it for publication In four of the provinces of Turkey, warning the in- habitants against listening to the repre- sentations of the Bulgarian agitators.

PRINCE READY FOR FLIGHT. Subterranean Passage From Ferdi- nand’s Palace to the River. BERLIN, Sept. 14.—An extraordinary letter, purporting to have been written by a Bulgarian statesman, appears in the Kleine Journal. The writer asserts that a subterranean passage leads from the castle, where Prince Ferdinand lives as though besieged, to the river, through which the Prince can escape by water when convinced that his positlon is no longer tenable. It is added that the Princess Clementine, mother of Prince Ferdinand, who saw King Edward at Vienna, told him that her son was in a deplorable position and In danger of his life and begged the King to have a ves- sel in readiness to carry him sway from Bulgaria. King Edward, it is asserted, assured Princess Clementine that Prince Ferdinand would always find an asylum in England. ——— MANY ARRESTS IN BEIRUT.

There was much excitement in the city this afternoon and wild reports of a revo- lution were current. Nearly all the rural guards in the province were assembled here to receive President Palma and 200 men were dispatched this evening to the scene of the trouble. The municipal police have arrested four armed men who were going out to join the outlaws. The strength of the alleged Insurgents is estimated at from forty to four hun- | dred.

The insurgents now have nearly 2000 men armed with rifles in Eastern Mace- donia, and thousands of peasants are ready to join their forces when a general rising has been proclaimed.

It has been years since there was a situation so serious. Beginning with the heavy rainstorm Friday night and early Saturday morning, there has been an almost continuous downpour in Minnesota, Iowa and the Dakotas and sections of Nebraska. Late to-day reports from the northern part of the State showed that rains were general. Southwest of St. Paul worse conditions prevall and throughout most of Jowa, Southern Minnesota and Eastern ‘Wisconsin rain was falling. Russian Nobleman Accused of Crime. ROCHESTER, N.

All the reserved seats were sold early and hundreds who wished to se _ure them were obliged to view the spectacle from the bleachers. All of the features were given in full, and as fast as they showed they were started for the cars on their way to Ala- meda, via San Jose. This longer trip was necessary because it is almost imposs(ble to ferry the great aggregation across the bay. ,}'he circus has done a phenomenal busi- ness during its week's stay in the city and every one of its patrons received their money's worth. It made good every ome of its promises, and as in past years it has left behind it only pleasant memorfes. As long as Ringling Bros. have a show they will be assured of generous patronage in San Franeisco.

Chronic Catarrh Is Pronounced Curable by Dr. Hartman. There are almost countless numbers of remedies said to cure chronic eca- tarrh. The most of these are of no use whatever and worse than useless; some are actually harmful.

But of all the vast multitudes of med- fcines it capnot be said that there are more than two or three wgich are tually specifics, and without doubt the most rellable is Peruna.

DAWSON, Sept. 14.—Dawson stands on a gold mine and its streets are paved with gold. Excitement prevailed in Dawson Saturday night over the cireulation of the report that pay dirt running from 2 to 15 cents to the pan had been struck at the * head of Albert street, in the heart of the city. The report proved true, but has caused no extraordinary rush for claims. The gravel in all directions near Daw- son contains gold. This is a little richer than most of the dirt within the eity limits and may be rich enough to pay the owner to sluice it in the spring, when the freshets furnish plenty of cheap water from the big hill back of town. The strike was made by some men hauling gravel from the old gravel pit. Thousands of yards of the same digt has been scat- tered along the streets of Dawson in the process of grading, and since It all eon~ tains more or less gold it may literally be sald that the streets of the imperial city of the north are paved with gold. —_——tegne— DISQUIETING RUMOR AGITATES WA.LL STREET Report That Keene and Harriman Were About to Renew Warfare Causes Stocks to Decline.
