RARE BIRD CAUGHT
 BY A TOURISTS DOG
Capture in New Zealan6 of a Wild Fowl of Species Thought to
 Have Been Extinct.

VANCOUVER, Oct. S-Advices were received from Auckland by the Warrimbo to the effect that a species of a very rare bird has been discovered on one of the southwest coast fiords of New Zea- land. It S the mantelli the takahe of the Maoris, supposed to have been ex- tinct. Until a few weeks ago there was only three specimens of this bird in the world, and for many years no trace of others had been seen. The specimen just secured will probably be worth its weight in gold and perhaps a good deal more. It was caught by a dog owned by a tourist.
 Information hitherto unknown has been acquired through the capture of this strange creature. It is a handsome bird of heavy gait, and absolutely unable to use it's wings for flying. It is about the size of a goose, and has beautifully col ored feathers. On the back, wings and tallic luster, and below the short tail feathers are white. The legs and toes are of rich salmon red. Another re- markable feature is the beak-a great equilateral triangle of hard pink horn, with one angle directed forward, while on the upper side of the base of the peak is a rudimentary comb.

SPAN|ARDS WILL

AMERICANS REMAIN FIRM
DIPLOMATIC CONTROVERSY IS
 FAST APPROACHING.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

1 PARIS, Oct S-The United States | Peace Commissioners began their usual threehour session at 10 o'clock this morning. They are understood to have taken into consideration direct propo- sitions and propositions from | the Spaniards. It may be regarded as quite likely that the Spaniards have al- ready outlined their apparent expecta- tions, and that they are beyond the line of possible aequiescence by the Ameri- cans.
 The latter are now acting along we'll considered lines, consistently and with definite end in view. They have, to some degree, disclosed their expecta tions and determinations. The Span iards, however, seem unable or unwill- ing to understand or believe that the Americans may have, at the outset, set forth their requirements, and that they are destined to remain virtually un- changed by finesse or counter-diplo macy. Therefore it is not unlikely that the Americans, following course of fair and thorough consideration of all the original and counter proposi- tions, will, to the limit of possibility, accord patient consideration to any thought projected by the Spaniards. While the Philippines have not yet been reached in the deliberations, the question is doubtless relatively not far distant, and at that point is likely to come the full stress of diplomatic con- trOverSy.
 Referring to the Philippine phase of the negotiations the Gaulois to-day says: "The question was somewhat touched upon though not discussed yes terday, but there was enough to lnd1- cate serious difficulties when it does come up
 The first session lasted two hours President Faure, through the United States Ambassador, General Horace Porter, to-day invited the American commission to visit the Longchamps racecourse on Sunday, in order to wit ness the race for the Prix Municipal The Americans, through the Embassa- dor thanked the President, but declined his invitation.

 pr. Miguel, the Minister of Finance and vice president of the Council of Ministers, through his mouthpiece, the 1 PoHt1Sche Nachrichten, has issued a denial of the newspaper statements to the effect that the recent epidemics of l sickness in a number of German regi- ments was due to American meats. He also denied that 150 cases of trichi- nosis at Sandersleben, near Beinberg, were caused by American pork. All the cases. he pointed out, were due to home grown pork.
 At the Socialists annual conference at Stuttgart this week Herr Liebknecht made a speech, in which he declared the Socialist party was the only one capable of freeing the world from an- archism and war. He further asserted that Prince Bismarck, "who had more power than any one man since Napo, leon, was smashed by the Socialists. Herr Liebknecht added significantly: And after we have overcome Bismarck there is no opponent we fear"
 The speech of Emperor William heralding the anti-strikes bill furnished material for inhammatory speeches. The proceedings of the Socialist Con- gress brought out clearly the develop ment of the Socialists into a parlia- mentary party of practical reform. A
  nent part taken by the workmen dele gates, whose speeches in nearly every case were of a revolutionary character. They secuted compromise or caution.
 The case of the newly elected Chief Mayor of Berlin, Kirschner, and Magis- trate Kauffmann, whose appointments have not been confirmed by the Elm peror, although the period in which they should have been confirmed has elapsed, promises to become senSa- tional. The Emperor, whose sanction is necessary, objects to the two person. ages named, owing to their political convictions, and the Tageblatt says: "A series of conflicts between the crown and the municipality, like the so-called conflicts seen in the early sixties, seems inevitable"
 Some 150 persons who served in the United States navy during the recent war with Spain, are now in Germany on leave of absence. They are creating quite sensation in the streets.
 sen1i-official denial has been issued of the statement that the Emperor ex- poets to postpone his journey to Pales- tine.
 The Empress of Germany, who is an ardent photographer, will take a con- plete photographic outfit with her for use during her Eastern trip. Knack- fuss, the well known painter, and Salt zemann, the marine painter, accom- pany the party. The latest item of the Emperor's programme is a religious ceremony on the Mount of Olives on October 30. The imperial party will number 128 persons, the horses and mules will total over 5000 and a thou sand Turkish troops will escort their Majesties.
 It is reported here that the North German Lloyd Steamship Company in- tends to extend it's East Asiatic service to Manila.

FERRIS BONDS INVALID. Important Decision Affecting the I'm
 migration District.

RIVERSIDE, Oct. 8.-Judge Moves of the Supreme Court to-day rendered an im- portant decision in the case of Hogg vs the Ferris Irrigation District. Action was brought to have the bonds declared in- valid, and in a decision on the point that the proper notice of intention to form the district was not given by the Supervisors the court says:
 First-That the notice in question was not sufficient to invest the Board of Su- pervisors of San Bernardino County with Jurisdiction to organize Of to conduct any proceedings for organization of the irri- gation district.
 Second That the decree of confirmation is intellectual for the purpose of legalizing such organization, upon grounds that the district was never organized; that all pro- ceedings had for such purpose were wholly void; that to give efficiency .o such decree would be to violate the con- stitutional rights of landowners of the said district in the same manner. as oid the order of the Board of Supervisors in the first instance in attempting to organ iZe the district.
 In view of these conclusions, it is not necessary to pass upon the many other questions presented, and they will, tnere- fore, be dismissed without comment.

STRANGLED BY A NEGRO.
George Randall Arrested for the
 Murder of Mrs. Voght.

DENVER, Oct. S.-George Randall, a negro, has been arrested on the charge of having murdered Mrs. Julia Voght, who was found dead yesterday in her apart ments, where she had been strangled to death with a towel. Randall, who fre- quently called on the woman. made some damaging admissions while under the in- fiuence of drink. It is believed he killed the woman because she refused to give him money. A memorandum book found among her effects showed she had ire quently given him small sums. No evil dence has been discovered to connect Randall with the four murders by strang ling that were committed here in 1894.

than Nicaragua and Honduras combined.
The convention voted against this. how

CUBA MUST BE EVACUATED
M'KINLEY WILL TOLERATE NO
DILAToRY TACTICS.
The spanish Side Pleads for More Time,
but the President Demands That
They Get Out by Dec 81.

Washington, Sept. 2i.-The officials
here are watching with interest the
progress being made by the military
commission in Havana i'm securing the
evacuation of the island of Cuba. The
commission has been very slow in maxi
ing reports to the war department, but
from the latest received IL appears that
the body would like to have more def
mite Instructions as TO procedure. 1t
seems that the Spanish side has said
that they could not begin the evacua-
ton of the island until the LIST of No
vember. and that II could not be COM
pleted before the 2Sth Of February next.
In view of the alarming state of the
Cubans. who are suffering from hunger
and their inability TO obtain work, the
president decided that he could not as
sent to the consumption of so much
time. Therefore he caused the commits
sion TO be instructed TO demand that
the evacuation Of the Spaniards begin
not later than Oct. 10, and that II be
completed by Dec. 81. next. What the
result of this demand will be is not
yet known, but II is said the admins
tration is determined to allow no dila-
tory tactics on the part of the Spanish
forces i'm leaving the island, although
disposed to permit reasonable indul-
ppura.
