N0 ULTIMATUM T0 SPAIN.

Duke of Tetuan's Version of His Inter-
view With General Woodford.

Madrid, Sept. 23.—The people of Spain,
persist in talking of General Wood-
ford’s alleged ultimatum to the Spanish
government and assume that a war
with the United States is inevitable.

This talk is groundless, however, and
is traceable to public nervousness in the
face of Spain's increasing political trou-
bles. ' ’

The cabinet has been shaken to a
critical point by the incident of Senor
Reverter’s excommunication by the
bishop of Palma and his subsequent
resignation from the ministry, and the
ministers are also in a state of anxiety
as to thelattitude of the Carlists.

The attitude of the government to-
ward the United States is pacific, how-
ever, as is shown by the version of his
interview with General Woodford given
by the Duke of Tetuan, minister of for-
eign affairs, in which he says: ‘

“There is no desire for hostilities, and
that is the policy of both governments.
General Woodford and I were unable
to speak each other’ s language, and
much time was lost in translating, so
the interview was not as long as it ap-
pears to have been. The whole conver-
sation was characterized by the great-
est courtesy and amiability. In my
opinion it was very satisfactory.

“My instluctions are to hold myselfi.
in readiness to confer with General
Woodford whenever he desires a con-
ference.”

General VVoodford’s version of the in—
terview is practically the same as that
of the Duke of Tetuan.

THE THORN-NAOK CASE.

District Attorney Youngs’ Lack of Faith
In the Recent Developments.

New York, Sept. 23,—Some employees
of the Murray Hill baths called on Dis-
trict Attorney Youngs at Long Island

- City today and examined the hat which

was fished out of the pool of water at
Woodside and thought by some to have
belonged to William Guldensuppe, who
is supposed to have been murdered in
the house at Woodside. Guldensuppe
Was up to the time of his disappearance
employed in the Murray Hill baths as a
rubber. The ha-t contained a hole which
was thought might have been made by
a bullet. The men said, after examin-
ing the hat, that it had not belonged to
Guldensuppe.
.District Attorney Youngs made this
statement: "That hat found has abso-
lutely nothing to do with the Gul‘den-
suppe case. In fact, all of the articles
raked out of the Woodside pond are en-
tirely valueless, so far as connecting
Thorn and Mrs. Nack with this case.
There have been no develOpments in the
last day or 'two, nor do I expect any.-
We are going on preparing for the pros- .
ecution of Thom and Mrs. Nack with
the firm belief that we1have sufficient
evidence to convict them."

Mr. Youngs declined to say what he
would do as to the indictment against
Mrs. Nack in’ case Thorn was not 0031-
victed.

Many Lives Lost In Japanese Typhoon.

Victoria, B. 0., Sept. 23.—Passengers
Who left Yokohama the day after the
typhoon state that the damage done
was even greater than previously re-
ported. Shipping in Yokohama harbor
was demoralized and much damage
was done in towns and villages. It was
reported that many lives have been lost.
but the exact number could not be as-
certained before the steamer Icft Yoko-
hama.

 

Typhoid From an Old Well.
Kensico, N. Y., Sept. 23,—Emile J.
Halfield died from typhoid fever caused
by drinking water from an unused well
near Rye Beach. Three others are very
ill from the same cause, and Miss Mary
Carpenter, daughter of O. H. Carpenter
of this village, is in a critical condition.
It is supposed that decayed vegetable
matter had made the well water foul

and had generated typhoid germs.

Barril’s Sentence Annulled.

Madrid, Sept. 23.——The supreme court
has annulled the sentence of 40 years’
imprisonment imposed upon Barril, the
supposed anarchist who on Sept. 3, at
Barcelona, attempted to assassinate
Chief of. Police Portus and Assistant
Chief Teixidor as they were leaving the
circus. This action is taken on the
ground that it has not been proved that
Barril is an anarchist.

 

End of the Coal Strike.

Pittsburg, Sept. 23.——The bituminous
coal miners’ strike is officially at an
end. The ten days during which it was
agreed that the miners should remain
idle expired today, and the 150,000 men
who had been idle for 11 weeks will re-
sume work at an advance of 20 per
- cent. The fight against the New York
and Cleveland Gas Coal company will
continue.

Advance to Khartum Delayed.

London, Sept. 23.——It is learned that
no further advance" will be made at
present by the Anglo-Egyptian expe-
dition up the Nile. It is recognized that
an attack upon Khartum would neces-
sitate a strong backing of British troops,
‘and, owing to the troubles in India, the
war office cannot send such a force to
Egypt for some time to come.

 

E“ Minister Reverter’s Resignation.
Madrid, Sept. 23.——The cabinet will
meet at once to receive the resignation
of Senor Reverter, the Spanish ministei
of finance, as the queen regent has re-
fused to sign his decrees since he was
excommunicated by the bishop of Ma.-

 

‘jorca for, it is claimed, taking posses
sion of the treasury of a church in the
bishop’s diocese.

 

' A Veteran Ends His Life.
Baltimore, Sept. 23.—William Howard, ‘
aged 68 years, a veteran of the Mexican
and civil wars, committed suicide at his
residence, 881 Ramsey street, by firing
a bullet into his right temple. Mental
derangement is given as the cause.

A Torpedo Boat Sunk.
Hamburg, Sept. 23.—Torpedo boat No.
26 has been capsized and sunk near the
first lightship, off Cuxhaven. Eight of
her crew, including her commander.
Duke Frederick William of Mecklen-

burg-Schwerin, were drowned.

The Kaiser at Breslau.
Breslau, Silesia, Sept. 23.—Emperor
William of Germany arrived here at
1 o’clock from Budapest. His majesty
was met at the railroad depot by the
empress, the Duke of ’Saxe-Meiningen
and Prince Hatzfeldt. Their majesties

Were warmly cheered. ,

THE CONWAY KIDNAPBRS.

The Two Men Sentenced to Practically
the Limit of the Law.

Albany, Sept. 23.——All that remains to
expiate to the limit of the law the
crime of kidnaping littleJohn Conway
is the capture and conviction of Albert
S. Warner, the New York lawyer who
abetted the commission of the crime.

Joseph M. Hardy and Henry G.
Blake, his colleagues, pleaded guilty to
the charge when they were arraigned
in the county court today and were
sentenced to hard labor in Dannemora
prison for 14 years and 4 months. The
maximum sentence allowed by law is
15 years, and the eight months was
given the men in order that the expira-
tion of their sentences will come dur-
ing the summer months. The scenes in
the courtroom at the culmination of
this famous case were devoid of ex-
citement. The room was filled with
lawyers and jurymen, and the intensity
of the silence of the crowd during the
arraignment was the only interesting
feature. The criminals walked to the
bar unshackled and answered the usu-
al questions with littleor no nervous-
ness.

P. C. Dugan, who was assigned as
:ounsel to Hardy, told the court that
he had advised his client to plead guilty
because he truthfully was guilty, and it

 

was unnecessary to put the county to

the expense of a lengthy trial.

District Attorlney Burlingame, for
the information of the court in that
there was no trial, reviewed the history
of the kid‘naping in accordance with a
confession made by Blake, which was
giv'enout later and is very minute in
detail. It agrees absolutely with .the
facts of the kidnaping as outlined in
the dispatches sent out at the time the
crime was committed. 'I‘he admonition
of County Judge Gregory to the crim-
inals in paying sentence was brief, but
bitter. He styled the crime as being
“fiendish, nefarious and diabolical,"
and said that he would only too will-
ingly give the men the limit of the law,
but that it was the custom of the court
to. always sentence criminals so that
their terms would expire during the
summer. The men received their sen-
tence with stoical expressions on their
faces and walked firmly from the court-
room attended only by Sheriff Thayer.
They were sent to Dannemora a few
hours later.

An Export Duty on Gold.

Washington, Sept. 23.—The owners of
gold mines in Nicaragua are worried
over a decree published on Aug. 15, and
taking effect immediately, establishing
an export duty of -$1 per ounce on gold
ingots and $2 per ounce on gold dust.
The information comes to the state de-
partment from Consular Agent Clancy
at Bluefields. He says the old duty was
35.44 cents per ounce on gold.

 

Burned by a Mob.

Galena, Kan” Sept. 23. —The notorious
Stafieback House was. burned by a mob,
and every vestige of the old structure
was destroy ed. No fire alaim was turn~
ed in until the building was nearly con—
sumed, and then no efforts were made
by the file department to extinguish the
flames. The search for. the remains of
the Stafieback family victims still goes
on.

John L. and Quincy.

Boston, Sept. 23.——-No nomination pa-
per has yet been obtained in behalf of

John L. Sullivan’s candidacy, because

the election commissioners have not
prepared any‘for the city election. Sul-
livan authorizes the statement that he
will not be a candidate for mayor un-
less Quincy is a candidate, and to him
it looks as if Quincy, would withdraw.

 

The Strike In Illinois.
Springfield, Ills.,.Sept. 23.—-The scale
agreed upon by the joint conference of
miners and operators was finally adopt-
ed by all except the northern Illinois
operators.

TIRES THAT LEAK.

The Morgan & Wright single-tube
quick-repair tire must be regarded as
a. distinct improvement in bicycle tire
construction. It has the following ad-
vantages:

While punctures in it can be re-
paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in-
jections, as well as ' in any, othe!
single-tube tire, it can be permanent!)
repaired by using the quick-repaii
strip inside the tire. See out No. 1

 

By injecting M. & W. quick-repair
cement through the puncture, and
then pressing down on the tire with
the thumb. as in out No. 2, the repaii

 

No.2

strip inside is picked up by the cement,

thus closing- the puncture, as in out

No. 3.

The Morgan 8: Wright single-tube
quick-repair tire is guaranteed not
porous. This 13 on account of the way
in which it is made. Nearly every
rider has heard of tires that “leak
like a sieve.”

Many tires rot, because water gets
into the fabric between the two layers
of rubber. The Morgan & Wright
fabric is proof against moisture. .

Everybody knows how comfortable

, Morgan & Wright tires are, and yet

how seldom they puncturer This is
due to the fabric.

Ask any bicycle dealer whether
other tires last as long as Morgan &
Wright tires. Ask, also, what the

Morgan & Wright guarantee means.

I Morgan & Wright tires are repaired

free of charge, at the factory in
Chicago or at any of the Morgan &
Wright free repair shops. located in
the principal cities.

N. B.——-When you have a puncture,

get right off. Riding a. tire flat, when .
it has a tack or nail in it, may

lamage it considerably.
