NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—Commercial bar sllver to-day touched the highest point established in years, 28d per ounce in Lon- don and 60%c and 60%c here. The advance abroad is equal to %d, as compared with | yesterday’s closing. The Treasury Department has purchased 1,000,000 ounces of silver buflion for de- livery at the San Francisco Mint for the Philippine coinage at 60.12%c per ounce, the highest price that has yet been paid. The New York market for silver reflects the price established in London, where the market has been strong for several months, the advance being attributed in great measure to demand from India and to purchases by the United States Govern- ment for Philippine account. —— Funeral of Commander Hughes.

The general situation is unchanged. Fear is expressed in many quarters that the Turks will oppose the application of the Austro-Russian reform plans. Turkish troops recently discovered a hiding place of Insurgents and refugees in the mountains in the vicinity of Ok- hrida, twenty-eight miles from Monastir, and routed them after several days of fighting. The Turks used artillery. The pursuit of the refugees is said to have been accompanied by great severity and the murder of many children and non- combatants is alleged. Three hundred and fifty refugees from Malkoternovo have, arrived at Hibibt- schevo, and 200 wothen and children from Resovo, vilayet of Adrianople, have reached Yambouli. The Turkish proposals for the repat- riation of the refugees meets with a posi- tive refusal from the fugitives to return to Macedonia and place themselves under the control of the Turks. —————— GUARDS SAVE PRISONER FROM GERMAN LYNCHERS nets and Then Hurry Intended Victim to Jail. BERLIN, Oct. 13.—A number of would- be lynchers at Bamburg surrounded the carriage in which guards were taking Andreas Dippold to the penitentiary to begin his sentence of eight years for whipping to death Heinze Koch, 4on of the director of the Deutsch Bank. The mob almost succeeded in getting possession of Dippold when the guards fixed bayonets and drove thelr assaflants off. Dippold was struck in the back by a plece of metal. 8 Dippold was young Koch's tutor. —————— Mob Takes Possession of Cathedral. ST.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 — Captain Chauncey B. Humphrey of the Third In- fantry and First Lieutenant Ernest V. Murphy of the Twenty-seventh Infantry arrived in Washington to-day from Venes zuela and the Isthmus of Panama, whither they had been sent on an imports ant military mission. They went directly from the raiiroad station to the division of military information, the secret service branch of the War Department, and sub- mitted an oral report. Afterward they went to a hotel, but repeated efforts to see them there and at other places proved unavailing. While preserving discreet silence con- cerning the nature and significance of the mission Intrusted to Captain Humphrey | and Lieutenant Murphy officlals who are familiar with the instructions given to them admit that it was exceedingly im- | portant. They went to Venezuela in June, going directly into the interior of the country and making a thorough ex- amination of affairs into which they had went to the isthmus of Panama, where they spent a week in obtaining informa- tion which the department was very anx- ( lous to procure. Reports which have been coming to the | Government for several months from of- | ficlal sources in Venezuela represent that | the prospect for a continuance of peace which have claims against it is by no | means assured.

How important the military informa- tion concerning Venezuela would be to the United States, if there is to be a re- sumption of trouble between the South | American republic andAts powerful for- | elgn creditors, is very apparent. It is | realized here that should Venezuela re- | pudiate her pledges to pay the claims of European nations a more serious condi- tion would ensue than that which pre valled when England and her allies were blockading the Venezuelan ports. It is believed that in this event a ‘*‘peace” blockade would not be enough to satisfy natfonal honor. ————— WITHDRAWS ITS SUPPORT FROM THE FUSION TICKET Greater New York Democracy of | Staten Island Will Stand by Tammany Hall. NEW YORK, Oct. 13—The Greater New York Democracy of Staten Island has de- cided to- withdraw its support from the ticket and Indorse the regular The organization | opposed Tammany two years ago and its members worked and voted for the fus- | fon ticket. A temporary Democratic organization | was formed to-night to fight Tammany { Hall and to support Mayor Low and the fusion ticket.

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 12.—The murder of Frank Roberts at Brawley some weeks since blds fair to remain a mystery. Sheriff Broadnax says the authorities have not succeeded in capturing the mur- | derer, and are almost absolutely without |a clew. He says that robbery was un- doubtedly the object, and that Roberts was shot from behind. It was well known in the district where Roberts lived that he had money and had several times shown a large amount of bilis at the hotel. Three hundred and seventy-five dollars was found in his | fusion ted, and it is reasonable to suppose that he had considerable money on his person when killed. He had no friends or ac- quaintances in the district, having re- cently come there from Idaho and pur- chased 320 acres of land. ————————— DIES WHEN HER YEARS OUTMEASURE THE CENTURY Indian Woman Born at a Famous Mission Passes Away Suddenly. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13.—Mrs. Marie Lena Garcia, an Indian woman who was born at San Luis Rey Mission in 179, is dead at Wilmington, where she was visiting friends. For 108 years Mrs. Gar- cia had lved In California, surviving two husbands and her nine children, all of the latter having been killed in the great earthquake early in the nineteenth century. ———— Wells Will Furnish the Gas. VENTURA, Oct. 13.—The Ventura Light and Power Company has announced that Ventura and Oxnard will be supplied with natural gas for fuel purposes.

Nothing this | morning foretold the serious disturbances | inbout to occur, but at noon the strikers, | not receiving answers -to their demands | from the employers, broke out into the | | wildest excesses. A mob of 6000 gathered | | in the great square and urged the troops | stationed there to throw down their arms, | shouting: “Down with patriotism." The rioters then spread through tfe | principal streets, breaking the windows of the stores, dragging out the huge display rolls of linen, which they stretched across | the streets with the object of impeding | | the advance of the cavalry. They wrecked | shops, sacked the houses of persons ob- i noxious to the ringleaders and attacked the banks, from two of which they suc- | ceeded in stealing a few hundred dollars | from the tills. | One gang set fire to a large quantity of | | linen in the cellars of Messrs. Becquarts’ | factory. Others broke the windows of | houses and threw burning straw Inside. The troops, hampered by the obstruc- tions thrown in their way by the rioters, | | were for a long time unable to disperse the mob.

Women brought | piles of empty bottles for use as missiles, | | while boys swarmed up the lamp posts | | and extinguished the gas jets. In epite | {of the efforts of the soldlers the rioters | then proceeded to sack the hcuses, drag- | ging out the furniture, saturating it with | | petroleum and setting fire to it in the street. Fire was put to two houses be- | longing to the strikers’ employers and one big factory. The local fire brigade being | inadequate to cope with the conflagra- | tions, an urgent appeal was sent to the | | neighboring town of Lille, where a steam | | pump 2nd reinforcements of firemen were | sent. | By midnight, however, the troops and | police had gained fhe upper hand and dis- ‘ persed the mob. The streets are now de- serted except for the armed patrols, The authorities are taking measures to ascer- tain the names of the ringleaders in the | | rlots. As a result of the intervention of | | the Prefect the strike leaders have decid- | ed to submit the employers' terms to a | | referendum of the workmen to-morrow. | EXPECTS AMERICA T0 ACT. | el D Continued From Page 1, Column 4. The Frankfurter Zeltung, whose sen- | sational announcement of the occupa-| | tion of Masanpho by Japan vesterday | occasioned disquiet, to-day published a | telegram from Shanghal saying there was no confirmation of the reported occupa- | { tion of that place, adding that the Ru: | so-Japanese negotiations at Tokio, con- | cerning the evacuation of Manchuria, fguve the impression that the political | situation in Japan was quiet. | The Koenische Zeitung also prints a | reassuring telegram from St. Petersburg, | | repeating a telegram from Port Arthur, | | stating that Viceroy Alexieff has issued | | a contradiction of the reported move- ments of Japanese troops to Korea. The | | telegram adds that the reports circulated | jon the subject are evidently only in- tended to serve the purpose of specula- | tion and provoke disquiet. | A special dispatch from Rome says that | forty-five Japanese officers who have | been studying in the military academies {at Raccogini and Modena have been | called to Japan by telegraph. { e s RUSSIA SENDS MORE TROOPS.

FRESNO, Oct. 13.—There was much ex- citement to-day among the Japanese here, and according to a well-founded rumor it was caused by the receipt of an edict from the Japanese Government or- dering all reserves, naval and military, to return to Japan by the first steamer leaving San Francisco. Among the local colony there are some veterans of the Japanese army who have seen hard fighting in the battles of their country. Among these is Sergeant Major N. Toura, a veteran of Formosa, Yalu, Taku, Tientsin and Peking. He served ten years in the army, and Is enrolled in the veteran reserves. He said that in case of war with Russia he would have to go home at once, and he acknowledged “expecting’” such order. The editor of the Japanese paper also professed ig- norance when questioned, but admitted that he expected the news. To Investigate Oriental Slave Trade.
