KITES AND CANNON
Used to Explore Ancient Indian Dwell
ling Places

ing ElaCeS
BAYONNE, N. j., June 6.-Prof. Will
liam Libby. Jr., of Princeton university,
will leave for Albuquerque. N. M, early
in July with party of six explorers.
Their plan is to attempt to scale table
land, shaped like figure 8, with per-
pendicularsldes seven hundredI feet high.
The outcroppings of red sandstone pro-
ject from the face of the walls making it
inaccessible by any ordinary means.
There are indications Of occupancy by
prehistoric race in the fragments of pot
terry at the base Of the formation. Libby
has arranged to throw line over this
tableland, which is several acres in ex-
tent on top, by means of tandem kites,
with which experiments were conducted
here yesterday by w. A. Eddy, who sent
up three large kites. which were main
talned some time in the air, although the
wind was too light for a satisfactory ex-
pertinent. Prof. Libby has mortar and
life line packed, ready for shipment, with
which an attempt will be made to fire a
line over the tableIand in case the wind
is too light for the kites. Larger lines
will be dragged over and the ascent
made in boatewain's chair. The table,
land can be approached on all sides. and
Is surrounded by plain. but so far as
known 1t has never been scaled.

Has Not Been Pinched

LONDON, June 6.-The premier Of
Hyderabad telegraphs to the London pa
pere this morning that the story widely
circulated to the effect that the Imperial
diamond, the property of the nizam of
-Hyderapad. had been stolen. IL pure fic-
tion. The original story reported, that
the thief had replaced the Imperial with
q clever substitute, and that the i'm
posture was for long time successful.
The Imperial is the largest brilliant in
the world, weighing 180 karats. and hae
SO faces. It was sold TO the nizam in
1891, through Alexander Jacob, for $2,-
000.0 900. though this sum was very much
in excess Of its real value. The tran
saction gave rise to complicated litiga-
tion, the Indian overnment authorities
objecting to 60 large an outlay by the
rizam for a mere luxury.

NEW YORK DEMOCRACY
WON'T TREPUDIATE THE CHICAGO
PLATFORM
Advice Given to Conduct Local Cam
paigns Without Regard to Ma
tional or State Issues

ALBANY. N. Y, June 6-The Demo-
cratic party will not force national is
sues in the various state campaigns and
while reputation of the Chicago plat
form will not be allowed, it will not be
brought forward as an issue paramount
to anything else. That is the statement
of National Committeeman Frank
Campbell of Bath. Mr. Campbell was
in the city tonight fresh from a confer
ence with party leaders and said: "The
policy Of the Democratic party of the
nation as laid down in the platform os
the Chicago convention in 1896 cannot
be disturbed until the next Democratic
national convention, which will be held
in 1900. 1t will make no difference
whether state, city or county conven-
tions endorse it or repudiate it. 1t will
stand unaltered. In the election last fall
the regular organization of the state of
New York was true to the nominees and
the platform of the Chicago convention.
The same party heartily endorsed Cleve-
land four years ago as the Democratic
candidate for president, although three
delegates were opposed to him in the
national convention.
II believe in home rule. If the Demo
Gratis of the city of New York, Buffalo
or Rochester deem it expedient ana
wise for party success to conduct their
local elections without injecting into
them state or national issues believe
they have a perfect right to do so, with
out interference Of any state or national
committee.
Democrats living in the state outside
of the city of New York are looking anx-
iously for the election of Democratic
mayor for greater New York. If this
could be accomplished it would encour-
age the rank and file of the party ard
enable the organization to get into
fighting shape for the more important
state election that is to take place
year from this fall, when governor. state
officers and legislature are to be elected.
If we carry greater New York and
elect the officers this year, then the par
ty will be in shape. with fair chance of
placing New York state in the Demo
cratic column in 1900.
GAS the representative of the organiz-
alton In New York Of the committee,
can state the committee has no desire 20
interfere with New York state in It's
local elections this fall, nor to dictate to
the Democratic party the issues it shall
use in elections
