RAMBUsCH SENSATION.
Apparently There Is No End to De-
veIOpments I'm the Case.

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 23.-It seems as
though the sensations in the Ram
busch case. were never to end A tele-
gram received from Fredericksburg,
stating that the officials there had de-
cided to bury Rambusch's body where
II was found, started the story that he
had not committed suicide. 1t was
contended here that the body had not
been identified and there was no proof
that 1t was the absconding banker
Mrs. Rambusch was afraid that the
insurance companies would not accept
that identification, and she telegra phed
the authorities to forward the body at
once. A telegram was received in re-
ply stating that the body had been
shipped.
Another report which caused some
excitement was to the effect that GER
tain Juneau people were arrang-
ing to get hold of the body, and
prevent it's burial before it had been
strung up on a tree in the court house
yard. Not much stock was taken in
the story, by Mr.. Rambusch's friends,
but is was feared that trouble might
ensue if it was allowed to spread, and
the people who were doing the talking.
were promptly told that any such at
tempt would be resisted by arms, il
necessary. 1t is not believed that there
will be any disturbance, but it is not
likely that there will be a regular fu-
neral. The remains are expected to
arrive some time tomorrow or Sunday,
and they will probably be taken direct
from the train to the burial place

SALISBURY INSISTED.
Chinese Physician Kidnapped in
London Was Thereupon Released.

~ LONDON, Oct. 23.-The Marquis OF
Salisbury today demanded the imme-
diate release Of Sun Vat Sen, the
Chinese physician, said to be a Brit
ssh subject, who was, according to
the statement of his friends kidnapped
while Passing the Chinese legation
here and held prisoner in the lega
ton on the charge of having been
engaged in a conspiracy to overthrow
the Manchu dynasty. A complete cor
cen of detectives was formed around
the Chinese legation, the officers being
ordered to seize Sun Vat Sea and re-
lease him if he should be brought out.
Tie Marquis of Salisbury, after read
ing number of affidavits in the case,
sent strongly worded letter to the
Chinese envoy pointing out that the
method adopted by the legation in
erresting Sun Yat Sen was distinctly
rot needed, as the cou, is we're open
t. the Chinese officials to obtain any
criminal for legal purposes. The pre-
nIier said he could not fail to point
cut that the act savorcd of unfriend-
liness, as seeming violation of the
right of asylum to whicn England was
committed by every tradition and be-
Ief, and he asked the envoy to imme-
diately release the imprisoned China
man, and so avoid further unpleasant
less. Later in the day, Sir Halliday
MacCartney, the counsellor of the Chi
rese legation, called at the foreign
office and said that Sun Vat Sen would
he released without prejudice to the
rights of the legation, which were in
rolved.
Sun Yat Sens! friend, DIR. Camille,
who first raised the question of the
Chinaman's imprisonment, went to the
Chinese legation at 4:50 with a letter
from the foreign office and not long
afterwards emerged from a side door
With Sun Vat Sen. They entered
cab and drove to the foreign office
where Sun Vat Sen made a formal
statement Of his case His exit was
witnessed by large crowd of people.
n representative of the Associated
Fress was informed this afternoon
u at III official circles the detention
CT Vat Ssa is regarded "as a mon
stlous abuse of the privilege of lega-
ton, which could not be tolerated for
& moment"
It appears that Sir Halliday Mac
Cartney,- on receiving the Marquis of
Salisbury's. note. went to the bedside
CT the Chinese minister, who is in i'll
Eealth, and explained to him that the
Marquis of Salisbury insisted upon
the release of Sun Yat Sen. The Chi
rose minister thereupon cabled to Pc
kin for instructions, and on the re-
ceipt of an answer, Sun Yat Sen was
released

THE BULLS AGAIN FAVORED.
MARKET STRONG AND AGGRESSIVE
WITH AN EXCELLENT TRADE
DISTRIBUTION,
CLOSE WAS NOT UP TO THE BEs
General List Lost Sharp Frac til ons
Late, But Still Closed at Small
Net Advances.

NEW YORK, Oct 2s.-The stock market
conditions were again favorable to the bulls
today. The market was active and ag-
greSslvely strong, with an excellent dis
tr1but1on OF dealings. London quotations
came higher, and early in the local opera
t1ons scarcity of stocks became evident
Covering of shorts strong feature.
The broadening tendency of the speculation
was reflected in commission house orders,
and the inquiry covered a number of usually
inactive stocks, resulting in material gains.
1t is understood that the recent strength
of the market in the face of firmer ex-
change rates and, the advance in the Bank
or England rates. has been due to adroit
manipula atieragatnst the shorts in various
properties by powerful operators who are
conflcent of material improvement in the
market in the near future. The scope of
these operators also takes in a foreign short
interest In American securities, estimated
at over 10000 shares of the various Inter-
nationals. This short interest is the result
OF the system that prevails in London Of
selling calla American securities for
sixty or ninety-day periods. The calls at
present outstandingf have to large ex-
tent been bought by the American operat-
ors who are now squeezing the shorts. The
stocks have to be bought against the calls,
which all expire at the end of December.
The market today proved superior to con-
tinued stringency in money rates, prac-
tically complete absence of demand for even
choice mercantile paper and further ad-
vance in both actual and sterling rates.
but in the late afternoon the unexpected
news Of withdrawal of $1,300,O0O in gold
from the sub-treasury by a leading New
York and California banking house. precipi-
tated selling for both accounts. The early
advance in the market list extended to 3ss
on Chicago Gas and 212 per cent in Sugar.
The industrials generally were helped by
trade advices and the Southwestern shares
by the expected restoration of harmony be-
tween the recent rate-cutting roads. In the
late recession Sugar lost 11sc per cent, and
the general list shared fractions. The clos
ing was steady at fractional net improve
ments. Railway bonds exhibited strength.

ARBITRATION is AN ESSENTIAL
II Salisbury Expects Satisfactory
Settlement, as He Says, He Must
Have Weakened.

WASHINGTON, Oct. est can be
stated positively that no notes or COM
munications of any kind have passed
between Secretary Olney and Lord
Salisbury as to Venezuela and an ar
bitration treaty since June % last, al
though reports to the contrary have
appeared The present negotiations will
be resumed at the point where they
were suspended at that date. Mr.. Oh
neys final proposal on June % was
that, so far as Venezuela was con-
cerned, it should be embraced in a
treaty of arbitration separate from the
sisted, however, that Venezuelan arbi-
tration was a prerequisite to any gen.
eral arbitration, and that the arbitra-
tion should be final and embrace all
the territory in dispute, settled as well
as unsettled, Great Britain being op-
posed to including the settled districts.
In view of the statement by the foreign
Office that the proposals about to be
made give hope of a final settlement,
it seems likely that Lord Salisbury's
answer to Mr. Olney's propositions of
June % will be favorable or in the line
of compromising the differences on de-
tails. The call of Sir Julian on Secre-
tary Olney today was one of courtesy
to present his respects after arrival,
and the question of arbitration was
not taken up, except that arrangements
were made for q, formal meeting at the
earliest moment Mr.. Olney might sug-

LONDON UNDERGROUND BOUGHT.
Big Deal Made by American Capital
lists In London.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 23.-The Republic this
morning says: A stupendous deal in
Volving radical change in the pro-
pr1etorShip and system of operation of
one of the most extensive street rail-
way properties in the world has been
practically completed. An American
syndicate has, it is said, secured con-
troll of the famous underground rail-
ways of London, Eng. The syndicate
was formed in Toronto, Canada, and
Ross Mackenzie is at the head of it.
Capitalists from New York, Philadel-
phia and other cities are also interested
and one of the heaviest investors is
stated to be a we'll known ST. Louis
man, whose name for the present is
withheld. The precise amount Of money
called for in order to capture the Brit
ish prize has not been ascertained,
but 1t is way up in the millions, as
the underground roads of London have
an enormous capitalization and con-
stitute a magnificent property.
Owing to the necessity of acquiring
real estate compensating other owners
and to the expense of diverting drain
age, making tunnels, ETC., the under
ground roads averaged in many por-
tions cost of $5,00000 a mile. In or
der to properly appreciate the magni-
tude of this deal and the extent to
which it is illustrative of American en-
terprlSe, progresSiveneSS and daring,
the present status of the underground
railway system of the English metrop-
oils must be we'll understood
Unlike this country, Great Britain
has for years been at a standstfll as
regards means of rapid transit il cit
les. There are not dozen electric rail-
roads III the country, not a single cable
road and the highest achievement in
street cars is as rule the horse tram
way London sticks to this to its vast
system of out of date omnibuses, its
'ansoms and four wheelers and its un-
derground railways.
