PARIS, Oct 1.-THE Paris newspa-
pefs thls morning discuss the Fashoda
question calmly, while pointing out the
strength of Frances position and the
racts on which her claims are based
Ihey express confidence that the uues-
ton will be amicab1y settled in a way
satisfactory to everybody, and urge
that this will be facilitated If the news
papers or the two countries do all they
can to calm the emotions Of public
opinion. The Figaro says:
I'VE have been literally subjected m
an uitimatum, threatening war on the
Marchand question. The ultimatum
was in the pocket Of the British am
bassador, or on his lips Fortunately
the document was not produced and
the word was not spoken. We should
be grateful for the skill Of the minister
or foreign affairs in preventing the de-
hVery Of the ultimatum, and to the
honesty and uprightness Of the British
ambassador in a critical juncture."
AFTER congratulating the French min
lister of foreign affairs on his master
~ parrying of the British demand" the
Temps expresses the hope that every
thing will be amicably settled, conclud-
ing:
In any case NJ. de la Casse should
receive the same universal support in
France as the English premier. the
Marquis Of Salisbury, in Great Britain"
The London correspondent of the
Matin, who generally echoes the opin-
ion of the French ambassador at the
British capital, adds that the evidence
supports the truth of the reports as to
the desperate condition in which Gen.
Kitchener found Maj. Marchand and
TO the latter's almost lack of supplies
of any kind. 1t says:
ut is probable Maj. Marchand con-
fessed his inability to retain the posi-
tfon, even If not handicapped by the
British and the Dervishes. It is, how
ever, out of the question that Mar
chand should accept the British offer
courteous though it be, to provide him
transportation to Cairo If he admits
the impracticability of remaining at
Fashoda he ought to fall back to his
former post in Bahr ell Ghazael. In
such an event France could negotiate
with Great Britain to enable her to
revictual and reinforce Mai. Marchand,
and by the only possible route, name
ly, the Nile. Whatever may be the
situation, however, France must not
abandon her rights to have an outlet

UNKNOWN WOMAN DISCOVERED
UNCONSCIOUS ON PORTLAND AV.
and Nothing to Indicate She Had
Taken Any Drug.

A young woman was found lying on
the sidewalk in front of the residence
of Mr.. w. H. Thurston, 46S Portland
avenue, last evening. She was in an
unconscious condition.
When discovered she was taken into
the house and Dr. Ramsey called The
doctor made an examination, but was
unable to discover any wounds or any
marks of rough treatment. Neither
was there anything to indicate that
she was suffering from poison Of any
kind. The Indications simply pointed
to her having suffered a severe fright.
There was nothing on her person to
disclose her identity, unless 1t was the
name on the collar she wore. That was
''E. Hirzel." 1t is presumed she is q
married woman, as she wore wedding
ring on the inside of which was en-
graved "To my wife"
She is a woman about twenty years
old, with dark complexion and dark
hair. Her clothing indicated that she
might possibly be a domestic.
While still unconscious she was taken
to the city hospital.
At 2:30 o'clock this morning the hos
pital authorities stated that the young
woman had recovered consciousness,
and was out of danger. She gave the
name of Blanche Hirzel was nineteen
years old, and said she lived at 639

not to question the girl, and she

JESSE JAMES ARRESTED.
PRISONER A SON OF MISSOURPS
PIONEER TRAIN ROBBER
Police Have Him Secreted and VIII
Give Out No Details-Other
Arrests Follow.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 11.-Jesse
James Jr., son of the notorious bandit,
Jesse James, Missouri's pioneer train
robber, was taken from his cigar stand
in the county court house by the police
this evening and has been secreted
by the police authorities. Two other
men, whose names are not known, and
whom the police absolutely refuse to
talk about, were arrested soon after
the police took young James into Gus
tody.
Jesse James Jr. has been under sur
Veillance Of the police since the last
Of the many train robberies in the out
skirts of Kansas City. This was the
robbery of a Missouri Pacific express
train near Leeds, on Sept. "a. William
w. Lowe, a Santa Fe switchman, has
been In custody since five days after
the hold-up. Lowe Is a native of the
Cracker Neck district, just east of this
city, which was made notorious as the
hiding place Of the first James gang
When close pressed the James boys, the
Youngers, the Ryans and others of the
old gang always found shelter in the
Cracker Neck.
John Kennedy, the locomotive en-
gineer who has been twice arrested in
connection with the more recent train
robberies In Jackson county, Is also a
native Of the Cracker Neck. Kennedy
and Lowe and young James are friends,
and though young James has always
borne a good reputation he has lately
been under surveillance with the others.
The police maintain the train robbing
will not be suppressed in Jackson
county until there has been a purifica-
ton Of the Cracker Neck district, and
all their work since the last robbery
seems to have been in this direction.
Late tonight it became known that
the police also had in custody Bill
Ryan, one Of the most notorious of the
old James gang. Ryan, like the others,
was reared in the Cracker Neck dis
trict.

lowing letter from Col. William J.
Bryan, dated at Jacksonville, Fla:
''My Dear Sir: I lnclose a pledge for month
ly contributions to the cause of bimetaliism
until October, 1900, together with the install
ment for this month. I most cordially in
dorse the plan adopted by the committee and
am confident it will result in the collection Of
a large fund for the circulation of blmetallic
literature. Since our fight is in the interests
of the plain people,, to use Lincolns phrase
or the common people, to borrow Bible
term-we must appeal to them for the means
Of carrying on the contest
'The fnanciers can contribute large sums
to support the gold standard, because the mo-

profit Surely you can appeal with confidence
to the millions who suffer from a rising dol

American people can renew the struggle for
