THE NEWS CONFIRMED.

Tho Russian Ambassador Acknowledge
the Truth Of the CzArs Serious Con.
dItiOn.
LONDON. Oct. 19.-The last red tape
Gordon that is always drawn around the
truth by diplomacy was broken to-day
when N. De Staal, the Russian ambRs.
sador to Great Britain, admitted to the
representative Of the Associated Press
that kilograms that had been received
at the embassy preclude any hope that
the sufferer Of Yalta would ever again
rise from his bed.
Throughout tho day and evening q
rain OF telegrams has fallen in this city.
Compiled ard sifted these show the fol.
lowing facts: That the Benkendorh,
the Russian court chamberlain, has
countermanded every order that had
been issued in connection with the pro-
posed visit Of the car TO Corfu. Many
officials have started for LlVadIa.
Princess Alix, the cZarewitch's be-
trothed, will arrive at Yaltu, where the
czar is soiourning. on Monday, and she
will be preceded by few hours by
Grand Duke Vladimir. The Grand
Duke Alexis arrived in Paris this morn.
ing, aud left tonight on the Oriental
express which Is due at YaIta on Tues
day.
Tonight tho theatres wero open as
usual, but the audiences were oppressed
by sence OF calamity. What certainly
10 remarkable feature OF tho present
crisis is the sympathy developed with.
in the past twenty-four hours in London
for the czar, the man, and the sufferer.
The keenness OF English sympathy has
been deepened by the news that a nervo
specialist has been called to the side OF
czarina, sister Of the princess Of Wales,
who is herself threatened by the strain
OF nursing the dying emperor.
To-day the churches throughout Rus
sia held special services for the recov-
cry of his majesty. IN the Cathedral OF
st. Isaac, In st, Petersburg, the highest
officials to the Moujiks joined in SOL
emn petition to God to save the czar.
In the Russian church in Paris, ser.
vices were also held aud were attended
by Grand Duke Michael Nicolaivitch,
the staff OF tho Russian embassy, Presi-
dent Casimir- Perier, Prime Minister
Dupuy and q number OF other notabili-
tics. The services were marked with
deep emotion, yet the thought OF those
present must have flown ahead asking:
When the czar 10 dead what then?
The question which tho French and
Germans and even the Russians them
selves are asking hourly and to which
their bourses to-day suggested the COM
mon answer, was not put in London
quites so sharply. London admits that
n serious crisis is possible, but yet
hardly probable.

BLuEFIE1Ds, W. Va, Oct. 19.-Hon.
Stephen B. Elkins spoke here tonight
to an audience Of some twelve hundred
people. His speech bristled with sharp,
telling points. He would hit the nail

railroad men and miners, and that they
might not miss his speech, they came

working clothes, with dinner pals in
hand, and when seats were not to be
had, stood patiently listening to the
truths so sensibly and plainly stated.
And now for tho contrast: Senator
Daniel, Of Virginia, happened here on
his way TO q barbecue in Virginia. The
Democrats at first tried 10 capture the
hall already secured by the Republi-
cans and, failing in this, went to the
court house. There were probably 200

The announcement was made that

Mr.. Grant and escort him to the hall.
The committee escorted Mr.. Grant
around to Tammany hall, where he was
received with tremendous applause, 1t

been prepared expressly for Mr.. Grant.
The new platform attacks first the ap-
portioument provided for in the con-
stitutional amendment and says Demo.
Gratis must fight against go unjust divi-
sion OF district representation. The
Sherman silver bill Is held responsible
for the recent hard times, and the plat
form also deals mighty blow at the A.

divide parties and people upon relig-
ious basis and to precipitate sectarian
war.
a letter from Mr.. Straus, written to-
day, was read at the committee meet
ing, in which he expresses appreciation
OF tho honor conferred in the nomina-
tion for mayor and continues: "My
reasons you will find more fully set

which 1 have received no written re-
ply"

IN takes hard work TO find a good
refine and good grit to tackle the
steep rough mountains, but it has
been done elsewhere and why not
here? The slopes of Salmon river
along the State road and trail are
literally scanned with quartz, so
much 80 that they in many places
appear to be more quartz than
formations. Near Fiddle creek
Amos Carver has found a promis-
ing looking ledge, the only one
that has been opened, that looks
like it might be carbonates from
the specimen I saw. These num-
erous lodges are but indications of
what exists further back after the
first ridge is passed, for l do not
look for mineral to be found in the
mountains next the river. The
formation is not promising, being
serpentine which carries asbestos
principally. With the completion
of the State road, a new era will
dawn upon this section and the
hospitable people will have COM
munication with the outside world
from which they have been isolated
for so many long years. Ftp.

COIgnte's Rem af,ss Found.
Lewiston Tribune.

Lewiston Tribune
Lieut.. Elliot, of Vancouver, with
detachment of Cavalrymen, re-
turned to Lewiston yesterday from
his tour in the Upper Clearwater
country, and leaves today for WAL
la Walla. The party left Lewis
ton August 9th to make a military
survey for the government of that
wild country and, having headed
the relief expedition that rescued
the famous Carlin hunting party
last fall, Lieut. Elliot naturally
kept a watchful eye for any trace
OF George Colgate, whom the Car
lin party abandoned to die in that
great wilderness. The events of
that tragic horror are still fresh in
the mids of the people, and it will
be some relief to know his definite
fate. To the Tribune Lieut.. Elliot
gave the following interesting de
tails:
"On August Goth, the bones of
the left leg of a man were found 8
miles below where Colgate was a
bandoned. The bones were per-
fectly denuded offiesh and the ends
crushed by the bites of wild beasts.
With the bones were found a
match box made of A and 45-cali-
Der cartridges, full of matches and
showing the effects of water; a piece
of braided linen line; a portion of a
suspender and small fragment of
cloth. When the bones were found
further search was made and few
inches beneath the sand the other
articles were found. Next day the
abandoned camp was visited, this
being three miles from where the
bones were found and across the
river from where Colgate was left.
In this camp cartridges were found
similar to those forming the match
box, and also larger piece of cloth
identical with that previously
found. From the surroundings the
lieutenant had no doubt but that
the bones had been washed by the
high water to the point where
found. Lieut.. Elliot was morally
certain the bones were those of
Colgate. They were taken 80 miles
up the river to the Hot Springs
on the north fork Of the middle
fork of the Clearwater, where they
were given burial and headboard
of seasoned cedar securely fastened
to mark George Colgate's last rest
ing place.
Lieut.. Elliot reports a large a
mount of snow in that region and
in some of the slopes of the Bitter
Roots there are old snow drifts
from to 25 feet deep. He says it
is an inexpressibly wild country.
