EMUCH LIKE ROSS CASE. Albany Is Greatly Excited Over the Kidnaping of a. Child. HELD FOR A LARGE RANSOM. Abductors Notified Parents and Demand- ed 83,000 For Boy’s Return—Ruse to Entrap the Rascals Which Unfortunately Failed. Albany, Aug. 18.—The whole city of Albany is wild with excitement over the kidnaping of little 5-year-old John Con- way, the son of M. J. Conway. Searching parties are out all over the woods surrounding Albany, the police are scouring the countryside and mes- sages have been wired and telephoned in every direction from town asking that a watch be kept for the boy and his abductors. The case is shrouded in deepest mys- tery. The abduction was worked so smoothly and quietly that the ruse to catch the kidnapers after they had made their offer to return the boy for $3,000 was absolutely ineffective, al- though it was carefully arranged and apparently laid along the lines given by the kidnapers themselves. Johnnie was playing in front of his father’s house, at 99 Colonade street, in West Albany, yesterday. It was a bright, pleasant day and the mother had opened the gate so that Johnnie might have the run of the little side street. Her household duties car- ried her back and forth through the house, and occasionally she would glance out to see that the boy had come to no harm. At last she had finished the work in the front part of the house and went up stairs to change her clothing and get ready for the midday meal. Mother Missed Him. She was gone about an hour, during which time she glanced out of the front window once or twice and saw the boy playing in the street, a. couple of houses above the Conway residence. She came down stairs to the kitchen and did not go to the front of the house again for half an hour. Then she stepped out on the porch and looked around for Johnnie. He was nowhere in sight. She called, but there was no answer, and the mother’s heart leaped to her mouth at the thought that danger might have overtaken him. But the street was quiet. Wagons rarely pass, and there was no likelihood that he had met with an accident and she not know of it. She went back into the house and tried to keep calm. Not 15 minutes later the front doorbell rang. Mrs. Conway went to the door. Standing on the front step was a bare— footed, tousled haired lad of about 10 years old, with a very crafty look in his face and a queer way of passing his hand over his forehead. He had a let- ter in his hand. A Threatening Letter. The letter stated that the child had been kidnaped, demanded a reward of $3,000 for his return. and gave minute directions as to how it should be sent. It concluded as follows: “We know you have the money in the bank. The bank closes at 2 o’clock and we must have it tonight. So get it in time. Don’t tell them why you draw it out. You can say you are buying property, if you wish, but this must be between you and me, if you would see your little boy back again, alive. “Remember the case of Charlie Ross in Philadelphia. His father did not know enough to do as he was told. He gave up to the police, and as a conse- quence spent five times the amount of ransom asked, and then he never saw the boy to the day of his death. So take warning. “Don’t you dare go to any one. Send the money by a trusty man to the place, say at 8:15 tonight. “Be sure that there is no danger of any one else going there. Then within two heurs after the package is left in the old tree you will have your little boy back again. Think of that. x“If you betray us in any way say goodby to your boy and watch out for yourself: we will meet you when you least expect it, and then take care.” * * * This letter was signed “The Captain of the Gang.” The Plan \Vhich Failed. Mrs. Conway screamed and shrieked and went into hysterics when she had half finished the ieter. Her cries filled the house with neighbors in a few sec- onds. » Somebody went down town on a wild run for Mr. Conway. The father was not told the trouble until he got home. Then the letter was shown to him. He stood the awful strain remarkably well, but glanced at the letter long enough to catch the drift of it. Then he devoted his attention to his wife. She was finally quieted and put to bed under the care of a physician. Conway went down town and re- ported the matter at police headquar— ters. . He went to the bank with a “trusty friend” and made a bluff at drawing out 83,000. :. In full view of the street this money was put in a package and hand- ed to him. Along with it was another package, a gummy one, containing pa- per. He dropped the real package as he passed out of the door and carried the other one down the street with him. The money was intrusted to the friend, with instructions to follow im- plicitly the directions contained in the kidnaper’s letter. The police secretly sent men out of the town on trains with instructions to drop off at way stations and get back the best they could to the rendezvous onthe Troy road at nightfall. ,The friend with the dummy package left Albany on his lonely walk at 7 o’clock. The police were scatterednbout the field of waving wheat on the oppo- site side of the road from the big hol- low tree. ' The package was deposited as direct- ed, and then the man turned back to- ward town. There was absolutely no sign of the kidnnpers. The police waited for hours, but got no trace'of them. Then a search was made of the sur- rounding country. But this, too, was without success. Then the news of the abduction was made public in town and the hunt be- camera general one. YUKON ' G‘dfi)’ ’éRRKRRs. What an Experienced Miner \‘Vho Has Abandoned the Trip Says. San Francisco, Aug. 17.—Danlel Gable, an old and experienced miner, who was one of the first to join the rush to the Klondike, has returned, and tells a story calculated to deter others from going north in search of gold. There is hardly a trail in California, Arizona, Nevada or Montana with which Gable is not fa- miliar. When the news of the gold strike reached this country Gable left his mines in Arizona and started for the Klondike via Juneau and the Chilkat pass. Now he is back, having sold his outfit, which cost $235. He learved from many experienced lmining men at Ju- neau and further up that it would be suicide to go before spring. He says: “When we reached Barnum’s bay, which is a little way from Dyea, I gave up the idea. I left the vessel, intending to go to work in the Comet mines there, and wait until next spring, when I in-N tended to go into the Klondike. I found the mines deserted, as the men would not work there at this time of the year, owing to the water, which filled the mines. The Alaska mining men are positive that nearly all who are trying to get to Dawson City will be frozen up on the way until spring, and that their fate is uncertain. I will not answer for the lives of the tenderfeet who are now going." ' Canada’s Proposal. Washington, Aug. 17.—The Canadian government has submitted formal pro- posals to this government to establish communication with the Klondike re— gion in Alaska by the construction of a telegraph line from the head of winter navigation on \the Lynn canal: into the center of the Klondike district. The proposals have been taken under 1d- visement. Cotton Mills to Resume Work. Lawrence, Mass, Aug. 17.—The re- pairs in progress at the Methun.

Daughter of Howard Gibb of Brooklyn Engaged to a French Nohlcmnn. New York, Aug. 17.—The engagement of Miss Minnie Gibb, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Howard G‘ibb, to the Count Henri de Moy, the only son 'of'the Mar- quis de May of Paris. was. announced in Brooklyn today. The newscame some- what as a surprise to Brdoklyn society. Howard Gibb, the father of the young woman, is a. millionaire and a member of the firm of Mills & Gibb of this city and Loeser & Co. of Brooklyn. Miss Minnie Gibb is his only child. Mrs. Gibb and daughter are now in Paris, where they have made their homes for seevral years past. When in Brooklyn, they live at No. 189 Columbia Heights, where they have entertained frequently on a lavish scale. , Miss Gibb is 23 years old and has many accomplishments, having re- ceived her education abroad. The mar- riage will take place in the early spring. The marquisate of De Moy is said to be one of the oldest and most distin- guished in France. Accordingto French heraldry, the house dates back to 1210. The family, which originally spelled the name DeMouy, originated in Pi- cardy, where are located 'two estates of this name, one near St. Quentin and the other near Beauvais. It is said that the family has been twice allied with the royal family of France andalso with the royal families of Portugal, Lor- raine and Savoy. ' The Gibbs are well known in Brook- lyn.

Mr. Howard Gibb corroborated this morning the story of the engagement of his daughter to the count. He said that the arrangements for the wedding had not yet been completed. “A MASS 0P MUDDY FERMENT." Signs of a Subaqueous Eruption In Ear- rison Lake, B. C., Terrify fiotel Guests. Vancouver, B. 0., Aug. 17.—Captaln Cooper of the steamship Courser, one of the best known navigators in British Columbia, who for years made frequent trips between wa Westminster and Harrison lake, says that there is every sign at the lake of a renewal of the subaqueous volcanic activity long ago deemed extinct in that region, though the mineral hot springs of Agassiz on the lake are undoubtedly of volcanic origin. The captain described the lake as a mass of muddy ferment, which he can only attribute to a volcanic effort. Captain Peel, government meteorolo- gist at New Westminster, and one of the ablest scientists of the province, has long held the opinion that a renewal of volcanic activity on a greater or less scale might be expected near Agassiz hot springs on Harrison lake, and goes so far as to say that a disastrous, far- reaching eruption is within the bounds of possibility. He supports Captain Peel's opinion that in view of the influ— ence of volcanic action on gold the up- heaval may have a practical effect on the fortunes of the Harrison lake min- ing district. The Agassiz hot springs hotels are now crowded with summer visitors from all over Canada. Of course the lake is the center of attraction, and many nervous guests are fearful of a tidal wave sweeping their temporary homes a few miles inland, or some sim- ilar nightmare. Hence the phenomenon will excite much interest in and beyond the Pacific province. Prominent Brooklyn Man Dead. Canton, N. Y., Aug. 17.—Robinson Gill 0!

THE WILSON “MYSTERY. Few Clews to Murderers of Aged Bookseller Discovered. THE THEORIES ADVANCED. Robbery Was Probably the Motive For the Assassination of the Prosperous Bibliophile—How the Crime “'31: Discovered. Philadelphia, Aug 18.—As the details of last night’s horrible crime, the mur- der of the aged librarian. and biblio- phile, William C. Wilson, are being brought to light by the police, the fact seems more clearly established that the motive for the crime was robbery, and that the perpetrators were familiar with the habits and movements of the old man. The belief is gaining ground that the work was that of negroes. They live in large numbers in that im-' mediate neighborhood, and the. worst of them have long been a source of worriment to the police because of the numerous assaults upon women. But little is known about the mur- dered man. While his acquaintances were numerous, none was familiar with his private life. As far as is known, he was born in Spencer, Mass. Later in life he moved to Worcester, where he was employed in a library. When about 25 years of age he went to New York city and in 1861 enlisted in the One Hundred and Fourth Regiment,'in’-- fantry. Aftenthe war he is said to have purchased a farm on Long Is- land, where he divided his time with nature and his books. He came to Philadelphia about 15 years ago and started the library bearing his name, which almost at once sprung into favor among lovers of books generally. The few employees of Wilson were dumfounded at the crime and were un- able to assist the police in following up any clew. They said he was in the habit of carrying a large roll of money about him and of carelessly displaying it. Discovery of the Crime. Patrolman William M. Smith of the Lombard street station was walking along Lawson street at about 7:30 o’clock. He was trying the back gates on that street, which is a small thor- oughfare running parallel with Walnut street. He found the gate at 1117 open. He walked in and found that the door to Wilson’s store was also ajar. The policeman lighted a candle and went inside. He ascended the stairs through the second story, which was vacant, to the third floor. Wilson’s sleeping room was on this floor, and in this room Policeman Smith found ev- erything in confusion. Closets, bureau drawers and trunks had been broken open and their contents scattered on the floor. The policeman went downstairs to the store, which is on the first floor, front- ing on \Valnut street. On reaching the foot of the stairs Smith saw a blood stained hammer lying on the floor. Near the front of the store was a pool of blood, and leading from this was a trail of blood around behind the show case. There Smith discovered the body of Wilson with the skull crushed in. The face was so bruised and covered with blood as to be nearly unrecogniza- ble. Wilson’s trousers had been almost pulled off, and the pockets had been turned inside out. There was a towel about Wilson‘s neck, with which his slayers had evi- dently strangled him, to make their work more certain. Murderers Knew His Habits. Wilson was last seen alive at about 6 o’clock, when he left his bdarding house to return to his place of business. Wil— son lived alone at the Walnut street store, and was accustomed to get his meals on South Tenth street. The men who killed him were evidently familiar with his habits and apparently forced an entrance to the store while he was out and lay in wait for him on his re- turn. Three men were seen to leave the rear of the building a short time before the policeman found the body. Detectives today arrested Peter V. Halveman, 27, and W‘illiam Kaissling, 22, on suspicion of being connected with the murder. . The two men were arrested in a cheap lodging house at Ninth and Sergeant streets. Halveman admitted that he had just changed his clothing, and said he had pawned the suit he had taken off. A piece of candle was found in one of Kaissling’s pockets. The description sent out by the de- tective department says that the three men were about 25 to 35 years old and all about 5 feet 7 inches in height. One of them had a small dark mustache and the other two were clean shaven. All had on dark suits and wore black felt hats. Boston Insurance Combination. Boston, Aug. 18.—-An agreement has been sent out by the board of fire un- derwriters through its secretary, Os- borne Howes, to all the fire insurance companies doing business in this city.

Washington, Aug. 18.—The state de- partment has issued a warrant direct- ing the surrender to the Canadian au- thorities of Alexander MattheWS Mc- Rae, who is wanted on a charge of forgery to the extent of $5,000 and rob- bery of a bank at St. Catherines. The warrant is issued under the extradition treaty. All Officials Constables. Ottawa, Aug. 18.——The Dominion gov- ernment is considering the advisability of swearing in all government officials who are going to Klondike as special constables so that they may be called on in the event of trouble in collecting the royalty on gold.

T., Aug. 18.—Pas- senger train No. 45, south bound on the Santa Fe road, was held up by train robbers early today between this city and Edmond. There were six or eight men in the party. ~ The robbers boarded the train at Ed- mond. The men were not apparently in one party, and neither the train crew nor any of the passengers noticed any- thing suspicious about them. When the, train had proceeded a few miles out of“ town the robbers began their operations. They held up and disarmed the conduc- tor, and while two of them kept guard over him and the passengers, the rest went through the train. ,Two of them climbed over the tender and threatened the engineer, John Rain, and the fireman with revolvers, and compelled them to stop the train. In the meantime there had been an exchange of shots in the express car. The express messenger had been order- ed to throw up his hands and had re- sponded by drawing his revolver and firing at the robbers. He was overpow- ered and bound. The attack had evidently been aimed at the express car. The robbers made an attempt to blow up the safe in the car with dynamite. The attempt failed, and, finding that they could not open the safe, the thieves took whatever of value they could lay their hands on in the car, got off the train and esca ed. It is said that they secured only about $500 or $600. No attempt was made to rob any of the passengers. The train proceeded to this city and detectives were at once put on the trail of the robbers. HATFIELD YARNS EXPOSED. No Battle In an Attempt to Recapture the Escaped Desperado. Wheeling, Aug. 18.——On Saturday a story was sent out reciting that a battle had been fought between “Cap" Hat- field and his friends and officers of Mingo county, in which dynamite and winchesters played prominent parts, three men being killed.

V3.2 “There has been no fight with We have been unable to locate ‘Cap’ as yet." The Register adds: “There have been men killed in the southern part of this state in quarrels among members of the Hatfield family and others in the past, but not one killing for fifty reported. ‘Cap’ Hatfield, before his escape from jail two weeks ago, was confined for nothing more serious than involuntar manslaughter, and had only five weeks of a three months’ sentence to serve. There were no other crimes charged against him, and if he is never captured it will not be a serious matter.” Horace G. Tennant Promoted.
