Rich Mans Queer Story.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14.-Such o
story as millionaire James Campbell
told and proved against Oliver Win
throp, is now told by Charles Mont
gomery, proprietor of the Brooklyn,
who is a man of means, position and
high reputation. This kidnapper,
however, planned more wisely than
Winthrop, executed more skillfully,
reaped a substantial reward for his
crime and has gone scot free. Fol-
more than a year Montgomery has
held peace and kept his pledge OF Sc.
crecy, and no one but his wife and
his lawyer has known that he was the
victim of an astonishing piece OF vii
liany and that he paid large sum OF
money-said to be a10O, ,OOO-to his
captor as the price of liberty and per.
sonal security. The Chronicle pub
fishes sensational story 10 the effect
that year ago last July Montgomery
had been lured at midday into va
cant house in the most populous part
| of the city and had been held pris
oner and threatened with torture and
death, and that he finally agreed tc
pay his jailer the sum he demanded
within specified time after he was
relased, had sworn not to betray the
robber and has paid the money as he
promised. In an interview upon the
subject, Montgomery said that his
reason for not having given publicity
to the case at an earlier date was thai
his jailer had threatened to kill him il
| he made the matter public.

Bandits Hold Up q Train.

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. IA Union
Pacific train due here at 3:15 a. m.
was held up short distance east OF
Uintah, near the mouth OF Weber can
yon, and about eight miles from Og.
den. 1t is supposed that two men did
the work, but how much booty they
got is not known. The engineer, who
left the train, ran ahead to Uintah and
reported the holdup. He believes
from the conversation OF the men as
they went through the train, that
they intended to blow up the express
car with dynamite. A train was made
up at Ogden and dispatched to the
scene of robbery and orders were
given TO organize posse and run the
robbers down.

A Dreadful Experience.

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 13.--The British
steamer Evelyn arrived here tonight
with the crew OF the Norwegian bard
Loviz aboard. The Loviz was aban-
doned while on a voyage from Mobile
for Rosario, Argentine Republic, and
after nine days of suffering in an open
boat, her crew were picked up by the
EVELYN. The Loviz left Mobile on
Aug. 6 with cargo of pitch pine.
On Sept. Z a heavy gale of wind was
encountered before which the bark
scudded for two days. On the 9th a
dismantied ship was 81 sighted laboring
in the sea. The Loviz bore down to
her and First Mate Edward Callaksen
and two men put off in a small boat
to the laboring ship. The trip was at
the risk of the mems lives as heavy
sea was still running. Nevertheless,
they reached the sinking bark, which
proved to be the II. f. Marshall of
Digby, N. S., from Savannah for San
tos, Brazil, with a cargo of pitch pine.
In four trips, the men of the Marshall
were put aboard the Loviz. The Loviz
then made sail and landed the Mar
shall's crew at the Bermudas. After
leaving the Bermudas the Loviz had
pleasant weather until Sept. %. when
gale sprung up and the bark soon
sprang a leak. The men worked at
the pumps, but the bark made water
rapidly and by Sept. 25, there was 13
feet of water in the hold. The bark
was then in long. so, lat IS. Unable
to keep the bark atloat the crew took
to two boats, there being in all nine
men in the crew. The boats were we'll
provisioned and we'll watered, but in
the heavy sea running swept half OF
the water overheard. Finally, the
two boats were lashed together and a
sea anchor put out, and in this way
they rode out the gale. For nine days
the men drifted along under the tropi-
cal sun with but one drink of water a
day, suffered great agony ana anxiety.
When they had nearly abandoned
hope they were picked up by the stea,
mer EVELYN. The Loviz was bark
of 1,053 tons and hailed from Chris,
tiana, Norway, where she is owned by
M. Laangard q Co.

was shipped a few days ago, and the
price named by Mr.. Jackson was $500
per bushel. He has as yet received
no answer from the exchange, but ex-
poets a reply in day or two. Wheth-
er the offer made by him will be ac-
cepted or not cannot be said until the
cotton is examined by the board.
If they refuse to pay the price asked
them, if the committee from south
Georgia does not succeed in buying
the seeG, Jackson will retain possession
of them and make a small fortune by
selling them in small lots through
out the State. The high price now
being offered for this cotton only adds
another chapter TO its already interest
ing history. Never before were TWEEN
ty bushels of cotton seed so sought al
ter. Men are willing to offer thous-
ands of dollars for it for fear it will
ruin them, while others are equally
anxious TO obtain possession OF them
in order that they may make for
tune.
