FRIENDS OF FRANK r. PETTIBONE
WORRIED OVER HIS DISAP-
PEARANCE.
HIS ACT UNExPLAINABLE.
BELIEVED HE HAS WANDERED
AWAY IN A FIT OF TEMPOR-
AIRY ALTERATION.
DOMESTIC. WAR FOR A CHILD
Sensational Case Which VIII Find
Its Way Into Court-Minne-
apO1is News.

Frank R. Pettibone, secretary Of the
Universal Lighting company, with Of
fees at 311 Lumber Exchange, has
diligent search by friends, aided by
the police proved fruitless. The last
seen of the missing man was Friday
afternoon. His cousin, Charles D.
White, with Jacobs & Co., called on
him at his Office. There seemed moth
ing unusual in his demeanor, and he
asked Mr.. White if he. was going out
to spend the night at his home at Ex-
celsior. Mf. White replied that he
would if he found time, and when he
arrived at the Pettibone residence Mr..
PettibOne had not appeared, and since
then nothing has been seen Of him.
1t was at first thought that he had
been detained, but an investigation
showed that such was not the case.
He disappeared as suddenly and mys-
teriously as if the earth had swal-
lowed him up and no trace whatever
can be found.
Mr.. Pettibone's desk at his office was
locked and everything was in it's place.
There were also his gold watch and
chain, his papers and his memoranda
book, which he always carried with
him. A small piece of paper was also
found with these words: "Queantilus
Boiler House. but no such institution
is known.
It is not believed by the detectives
that the missing man committed sui
eide. The more plausible theory is
that he has wandered or gone away
while in a troubled state of mind over
business cares
It is known that for some time Mr..
Pettibone has had difficulties Of a
financial nature It is stated that not
long ago he was unable to secure d
bond, which he has never been refused
before, and this is supposed to have
weighed deeply upon his mind. His
wife and friends believe that these
| troubles have rendered him temporar-
| lily demented, and they believe that he
has wandered off. They are of the
| opinion that he will be found or will
return after his mind has been cleared.
Mr. Pettibone had no troubles of a
domestic nature. His home at Ex-
celsior was a most happy one, and Mr..
GettlDone always pofe the reputation
of being man greatly attached to his
| home and family. Besides his wife, he
has two children.
E. L. Newell, of Minneapolis, was in
st. Paul last night, looking for some
clue to the possible fate of his former
business partner, F. R. Pettibone, of
! Excelsior, Lake Minnetonka, who has
been missing since Friday. Mr.. Newell
| and the missing man conducted the
affairs of the Acetylene Gas company,
whose offices are at 311 Lumber En-
! change, Minneapolis.

WANT TO BUY CUBA
Continued From First Page.

Premier Sagasta, who said, in response
to queries:
You ask me il the Liberal party would
assent to mediation by the United States with
a view to Fastening the pacifcation of Cuba
and inducing the rebels in arms and the
exiles to accept autonomy. Why should we
need mediation, when our intentions-long
and often expressed by the Liberal party
aim at realizing all that America could sug-
gest? No Spanish party, certainly not the
Liberals, could assent to foreign lnterfer-
ence in our domestic affairs, or with our col
onies. No government could hope to induce
the nation to accept such interference.
If America, we firmly believe and nope,
is disposed to be sincerely friendly with US,
let her enforce the rules of international law
and stop the flow of moral and material aid,
without which the insurrection could not
last six months We shall reverse complete
Iy the policy of the last two years in Cuba,
beginning, naturally, with the recall of Wey-
ler l Informed the queen yesterday that
the Liberal party would accept the RESPONSE
bilities of office most willingly if her majesty
honored the party with her confidence; that
the Liberal party had plans for all the pend
ing questions of the day in Spain, and GER
tainly would grant to Cuba autonomy along
the lines traced in the programme Of the
Cuban autonomists themselves. l said so IN
my manifesto in June and have repeated the
same promise during the government holi-
days. The Liberal party is prepared to grant
to Cuba all possible self lf-government, broad
tariff and every concession compatible with
inflexible defense of Spanish rule and SOW
ereignty in the West Indies. We believe
this will satisfy the majority of the Cubans,
and we will act thus spontaneously
The new prime minister spoke with much
warmth and an unusual flow of words,
though the statesman generally is reserved.

PREACHED TO DIvINEs.
Bishop Hurst Delivers the Confer
ence Sermon at Winona.

Bishop Hurst DeIIVSrS the OthhSH-
ence Sermon at Winona.
Special to the Globe.
WINONA, Minn., Oct. 3.-Blshop
Hurst preached the conference sun
day sermon this morning to an i'm
mense congregation. He took for his
text Matthew H., 2-3; Acts xvii, u.
These two chapters, he said, express
the great truth of the worlds search
for God The wise men of the East
had some conception of the Jesus they
had come to see, yet no idea OF the
great reality. In seeing in Athens the
image of the unknown God, Paul saw
were cropping for. The basis of the
faith of every nation or people is
some literary production which repre-
sents the search of the mind in ignof-
ance for God. Here and there these
works have come very near the truth,
as in Plato's works, where he has the
conception that a God can become in
carnate and man can rise to his God
and hence become more virtuous.
Christianity is the only faith which is
universally cosmopolitan, suiting all
conditions and ages, and here and
there you find an approach to a per-
feet man, but even Biblical charac-
ters have chapters of history we would
like to obliterate. In Jesus we find
ways said the right thing, and when
He spoke not His silence was golden.
We find monuments erected to the
many heroes and great souls who
have passed away, but none to Jesus.
Why? Because He is not dead, but
ever living and present with us, ever
merciful, ever loving, ever forgiving.
The sermon was followed by the
ordination Of deacons The ordained
are William G. Follensbee, Elbert Il.

CREW OF THE SCHOONER HENRY
MAY RESCUED AFTER AWFUL.
EXPERIENCE.
NO BOAT COULD REACH THEM
HELD ON FOR HOURS TO THE CAP
SIZED CRAFT TILL THE
STORM ABATED
UNKNOWN VESSEL WENT DOWN.
Report of Wreck at Sea in Which, nj
Least Forty Sailors We're
Drowned

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Oct. g.
The crew of the schooner wrecked off
Longport last night was rescued to-
day and landed on the beach at Ocean
City. The luckless craft was the Henry
May, Capt w. o. Perry, from Port
land, Me-, with a cargo of railroad
ties
For over twenty-four hours the cap
tain and mis- five men faced death.
The story of their dread experience
was told by Capt Perry, after food
and warmth had restored him. The
vessel ran into the violent northeast
gale, which ragged along the coast Fri
day night, when off Bainegat She
was headed for Delaware Breakwater,
but the storm grew in fury and she
sprang leak. All hands were called
to the pumps, but they were feeble
against the incoming waters. The ship
drove crazily before the storm A
crash sounded above the roar of the
wind, and the mariners knew that the
sails had gone. A moment later, the
ship swirled in a tremendous sea and
capsized. This was off Longport.
Meanwhile she was sighted from shore,
but the task of rescue then was hope
less. 1t was clear that no boat could
brave the sea for more than a few
minutes. The Ocean City life crew
determined to try, and Pecks Beach
crew turned in to help them. The life
boat was launched, and almost imme
diately huge wave broke over her
and flung her angrily back upon the
sands Again and again was the at
tempt made, only to meet. with the
same rebuff. Eventually, the futility
of the work was recognized, and the
would-be rescuers were compelled to
abandon it. The news Of the wreck
had spread, and the beach was
thronged with persons, helplessly gaz-
ing at the tossing hull. She drifted
slowly down the coast, her anchor
chains dragging and wave after wave
breaking over her When she capsized
thrill Of horror went over the on
lockers, but a moment later the forms
OF the sailors were seen clinging to the
plunging hull.
Capt Perry tried to give some no
ton of what they felt as they watched
the failing attempts at rescue. Death
loomed before them, but they prayed
that it might be baked. Night fell
like a pail. With the cold benumbing
their every faculties and exhaustion
creeping over them, they clung to the
spars with desperation. Thus the
night was passed. With the dawn came
a lull in the storm, and they knew
their prayers had been heard. At the
first streak of light the weary watch
ers on shore put out boat, safely
reached the wreck and carried the
weakened seamen back to land.
Capt. Perry says this is his last sea
trip. He thinks the hull of the schoon-
err is worth saving. She was owned
by the Berlin Mills company, of Port
land
