RENO, Nev.,, May 22.—Lost on the | great Tonopah desert for two days, without food or water, either for him- self or his horse, almost exhausted from thirst and\hunger and about to give up all hope of escaping alive— such was the condition of Carl Stod- | dard, one of Nevada's best known metallurgists. He left Tonopah early last week, | {riding a horse, and bound for Reno | on a visit to his parents. Some miles | out he became bewildered, lost the | road, and for the next two days was | lost upon the desert. It was yesterday | | morning when an Indian ptrospector | | found him. Stoddard was out of his| | nfind. He was leading his horse and walking about in an aimless manner. Every few steps he would fall to the ground, but he would not give up, | and continued until at last he fell into | ! his rescuer’s arms and was carried | | to Gardnerville, where medical assist- | lance succeeded in reviving him suf- | ficiently to allow his friends to bring |him to Reno. He arrived here to-| | night, weak and exhausted, but will! | recover. | The distance from here to Tonopah | | is not more than 300 miles, yet Stod- | | dard covered 450 miles of the most | barren country in Nevada. ] BRICAND OFFERS - RANSOM TERYS Special Dispatch to The Call. TANGIER, Morocco, May 22.—The | Shereef cf Wazan left this morning to | meet Raissouli, the bandit chief, who! is said to be at Benairos. Mohammed | | El Torres, representative of the Sul- tan of Morocco at Tingier, has em- powered the Shereef to say that the | Government will grant all of the de- | mands of Raissouli if Ion Perdicaris, | the American, and Cromwell Variley, | the British captive, are handed over immediately. The soldiers already | have been withdrawn from the dis- | | trictS where the bandits are located. | FASHINGTON, May 22.—Negotia- tions for the ransom of Ion Perdicaris | and his stepson, Cromwell Variley, | I'have been opened by the bandit chief- | | tain Raissouli. | American Consul Gummere at Tan- | gier; in a cablegram received at the | Stafe Department this afternoon, re- | ports that Raissouli has communicated | with the authorities in Tangier and I that a message has been received from ithe captives stating that they were | well treated. Gummere does not say { what, if any, figure of ransom Rais- souli demands, but the bandit intimateq ' that he expected an offer to be made quickly for the release of the cap- | tives. ! 3 line of communication between the authorities and the mountains where | the bandits are supposed to be con- { cealed has evidently been established. | L.

Johnson’s Faction Favors the )Iissouriau'sl Nomination for Presidency COLUMBUS, O., May 22.—There are more early visitors here than usual for the Democratic convention next Tues- day and Wednesday. This is due to contests in many county delegations and the desire of contestants “to be heard’™ as soon as they can meet dele- gates and leaders. There have been fights in most of the 88 countles for Hearst delegates. All who are opposed to Hearst are | called Conservatives. As the latter, have a majority of uncontested dele- gates, thty will no doubt decide the | contests against the Hearst contes- | tants and control the convention. The | Conservatives, however, are divided in | their political preferences between Col- | onel James Kilbourne of Columbus, | who was the Democratic candidate for | Governor three years ago; Judge Jud- | son Harmon, who was Attorney Gen- | eral under President Cleveland, and | Joseph Folk of Missouri. Previous to his defeat for Governor | last year and his loss of control of the State committee this year, Mayor Tom a candidate for the Democratic nomi- nation for President, but he is now heading the boom in Ohio for Folk. Johnson, who was the candidate for last year, and John H. Clarke, who was then the Democratic candidate for Senator against Hanna, are delegates from the Twenty-first Ohlo district to the St. Louis conven- tion, and neither has been mentioned for delegate at large. There was a proposition to make the last four Dem- | ocratic candidates for Governor, Horace Chapman, Jonn McLean, James Kilbourne and Tom L. Johnson, the delegates at large, but all declined. | Chapman, McLean and Kilbourne aleo | declined to serve as district delegates. There is no doubt that the Conserva- tives will name the “Big Four” and the State ticket, as well as dictate the resolutions. No instructions for any candidate are expected, but either Kil- | bourne or Harmon will be indorsed as | “the Ohlo favorite,” and the delegates | will be instructed to “vote as a unit| whenever a majority of the delegation | so elects.” | ST. LOUIS, May 22.—When Joseph | W. Folk was asked to-night whether he | was in sympathy with Tom L. John-| son’s proposifion to secure the indorse- | | ment of Ohio for President, the Clrcult; Attorney said: | “As I said a few weeks ago, I am souri; this obligation is so definite that I cannot consider the nomination or even the suggestion for any office other than that of Governor of Missouri, for| which high place the rank and fille of | the people in my party have so gener- | ously conferred on me.” — e DIAMOND THIEVES MAKE B1G HAUL | From a Residence in Chicago.
