Ing in 1895 200 bu. per acre. Every
farmer who tested it, believes 25O bu.
possible.

KIDNAPPED AND "BLED."
How Hotel Keeper Is Alleged to
Have Been Forced to Pay $4,000.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.-Such a story
as millionaire James Campbell told and
proved against oliver Winthrop comes now
from Charles Montgomery. proprietor of
the Brooklyn Hotel who is a man of
means, position and high reputation-Just
such a story, save that the kidnaper is de-
clared to have planned more wisely than
Winthrop, executed more skillfully, reaped
a substantial reward for his daring crime
and gone scot free. For more than a year
Mr. Montgomery has held his peace and
kept his pledge of secrecy, and no one but
his wife and his lawyer has known that he
was the victim of an astonishing piece OF
villainy and that he paid a large sum of
money-sad to be $l0,000-to his captor as
the price of liberty and personal security
The Chronicle this morning publishes
sensational story to the effect that year
ago last July Montgomery had been lured
at midday into z. vacant house In the most
populous part of the city and had been held
a prisoner and threatened with torture and
death and had finally agreed to pay his
tailor the sum he demanded within speci-
fled time after his release; had sworn not
TO betray the robber and had paid the mon
ey as he promised. In an interview upon
the subject Montgomery said that his rea-
son for not having given publicity TO the
story at an earlier date was that the Kid
naner had threatened to kill him IL 1t ever
became public both he and his lawyer be-
leving that he would keep his word.

with his wife, is confined in Holloway Jail
on remand, charged with stealing valuable
furs, etc. from shops in this city, showed
signs to-day of suffering from his confne-
ment in prison and from the worry Incl
dent to it. He said to friend: Il do not
know how I can ever buckle to again. l

ridiculous Why, two large packing cases
full of presents were sent to my house in
Hyde Park direct from the stores where
the goods were bought. How could they
be stolen? The Castles have been abroad
for a year and had a large number Of COM

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 10.-For the sec
ond time in the past two years the boys of
DePauw University suffered defeat at the
hands of the Louisville Athletic Club eIev-
en- on the gridiron this afternoon by the
score of twenty-eight to twelve Rumors
had come from Greencastle that DePauw
was much stronger this year than she was
last autumn, when she met defeat by the
score of twelve to ten, and the betting on
the game was with the odds slightly in
favor of the Indiana team. When the
teams lined up it was seen that DePauw
had the advantage in weight in the line
but in the first five minutes play it became
evident that unless the visitors improved
materially their chances of winning were
very y, slim: Their offensive play was weak
IN the extreme and at no time after the
ball was put in motion did the L. A. c.
backs have trouble in making gains. The
defensive play of the visitors was better
but this was more than overbalanced by
their costly fumbling, and these two points
alone won the game for the local team, for
at times l.. A C.'s defensive play was
weak and their team play was very ragged
throughout the game. There was constant
kicking and fighting on both sides
DePauw won the toss, and l.. "A. kicked

MATTERS OF BASEBALL
A LIVELY MEETING or WESTERN
LEAGUE OWNERS EXPECTED.
National Board Now Has Power to See
that Indianapolis and Mfnneap-
oils Get Justice.

The meetings of the National League and
the Western League will occur at the same
time in Chicago-Nov. 11--and some inter-
esting developments may be looked for
then in connection with the attitude of In
dianapolis and Minneapolis towards the
present management of the last-named or
ganization. The fact that the national
board of arbitration gave itself the neces-
sary jurisdiction to deal with troubles aris-
ing between clubs of the same league
would indicate that unless Indianapolis and
Minneapolis are treated fairly and the
Western League constitution lived up to-
the parent organization would, before long,
take the matter in hand. If this is done
the element that has been hostile to the
two clubs and that has controlled the West
ern League will be bumped" pretty hard.
Indianapolis and Minneapolis insist, and
rightfully, too that the constitution as
amended be observed. The abolition of the
10-per-cent. contribution to the sinking fund
was illegally disregarded during the season
just closed The two complaining clubs
were thus forced to contribute uniustly to
the support of city which was never self
supporting in the Western League and to
the admission of which they were opposed.
Under the legally amended constitution the
expenses of the ieague We're this season 20
be estimated in advance each month by the
one-eighth the amount of such estimate.
Instead of doing so, the old plan of levying
10 per cent. on the gross receipts of each
game followed out, thus working in
justice to the clubs drawing the Dig
best crowds, and in disregard of the consi-
tuition The admission of Grand Rapids,
without any pretense of resembling the ac-
tion giving Omaha a franchise was anoth-
er irregular proceeding. j. was these in
stances that were made q basis Of COM
plaint to the national board. The details
of these transactions were gone over by the
board, with the result that it Immediately
voted itself the needed jurisdiction for all
future complaints of a. similar character.
The newspapers in the East heard but one
side of the matter and that was the side of
the element hostile to indianapolis and
Minneapolis. This element spread itself be-
fore the newspaper men, while the two
clubs referred to presented their cases to
the board, and their representatives did
not talk for publication. 1t is altogether
likely that If Indianapolis and Minneapolis
are in the present Western League next
season they will be accorded fair treat
ment. The lesson of the recent board meet
ing was not lost upon the enemies of these
substantial clubs and the November meet,
ing of the board is likely to make still
deeper impression upon them.

MANY ESTATES ROBBED.
Deveiopm in the DefaIcation O.
Treasurer George j. Marsh.

GLOUCESTER, Mass, Oct. 1O.-The fu-
neral of the late George j. Marsh treasur-
er of the Cape Ann Savings Bank who
committed suicide by shooting Thursday
was held to-day. 1t was attended by a
large number of business men and citizens
Interest in the affairs of the estate and
trusts in Marsh's keeping is as great as
ever, and the outlook is not as favorable
TO the benetciaries of those estates. One
of the Cape Ann officials to-day admitted
that there was q strong possibility of hy-
pothecation amounting to quarter of
million of dollars. The work of straight
ening out matters pertaining to those es-
tates Is progressing very slowly, and it will
be some time before a statement can be
ready. It is believed that everything nego-
table In Marsh's keeping has been disposed
The DIR. Hildreth estate, between $40 900 and
$4,000, is practically wiped out. The George
IL Rogers estate was valued at $le0, 900. and
the loss there cannot be estimated There
are in local banks notes signed by Marsh
probably amounting in all from S15, 900 to
$4,000. Practically all this paper was in
dorsed by Mrs Rogers. In addition to this,
il is thought that considerable paper is held
in Boston. Marsh left note in Mrs Rogers's
bank box, but she refuses to make pub
lie its contents. IT was learned to-day shat
an estate in the vicinity of Wenham, val
ued at $4,000, was in Marsh's charge, and
is. 1t is feared. seriously involved. 1t is
stated that in the month of August of this
year Marsh lost about 100000 through spec
ulatiOn.
