NEGRO IN PERIL.
Narrowly Escaped Lynchtng as n
Result of a Crap Game.

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 9.-Glenwood,
suburb of this city, was thrown into ex-
element tonight by the threatened lynch
ing of a young negro named Daniel Scott.
Scott, with three companions, went to a
mill workers camp near Hays station,
where a game of "craps" was started
with several of the mill men. Scott lost
his all on throw, grabbed the money
and ran with the crowd at his heels.
Patrick Murto caught up to him and de-
manded the money, Scott pulled his re-
volver and fired at Murto, the ball graz
ing his shoulder and knocking him to
the ground without real injury. Scott
fed, but was captured on the Glenwood
bridge, where a crowd of several hun
dred men soon gathered. Murto's COM
panions, thinking he had been murdered,
wanted to lynch the negro. Before the
police arrived Scott had been used for a
football by the crowd and was sorry
looking object when landed in the sta
ton house. Scott claims that his re-
volver was loaded with blank cartridges.

ice commission has made public its let
ter to the secretary of the treasury Of

that exceptions to these rules and regu-
lations can be legally made only in the

Change in the Management Results
in an Uprising.
PLANKINTON, Neb., July 9.-The re-
cent change in managers at the reform
school was made the occasion for a
mutinous outbreak on the part of the
inmates. The boys were out on the
campus when the order was given them
to fall in line to march back to the build
ing. The youngsters refused point blank
and took to their heels, the shouts of the
new superintendent to them to return
having no effect on them.
The guards were at once called, the
sheriff was notified and all Joined In the
pursuit. Twenty-seven boys got away
from the grounds, but after long chase
all were caught and brought back except
two, a Norwegian and big Indian, who
are still at large. On their way back the
boys made slurring remarks about the
new superintendent, and averred that
they had planned to make the break for
liberty with the change of management.

:
TACOMA, Wash, July 9-John D.

Island Iron mines, in British Columbia

property is a secret.

them. The ore runs Sc per cent and is
considered as good as any iron produced
in the country, and the mines lie within
200 feet of tide water. Mr.. Rockefeller,
it is stated, will soon begin the erection
of plant to handle the ore, as at pres
ent there is none in the Pacific North

MISS CRAPP MISSING.
Case Is One of Kidnapping and Not
an EIOpement.

an EIOpement.
ATLANTA, Ga, July 9.-NTiss Henri
eta Crapp, the sixteen-year- daugh-
ter Of a prominent insurance man of this
city, mysteriously disappeared from the
home of H. o. Underwood, four niles
from Atlanta, Saturday afternoon. A
party of thirty men, assisted by Atlanta
detectives, have failed to find the least
trace of the missing girl 1t is believed
she has been kidnapped.
1t is reported that a carriage was seen
near the Underwood home Saturday aft
ernoon, but the disappearance could not
have been an elopement as Miss Crapp
was attired only in a house dress and
slippers.
Miss Crapp is the daughter of wealthy
lumberman, formerly of Lafayette, Ind.
Mr.. Crapp left Lafayette several years
ago and went into business at Tallapoosa,
Ga, coming to Atlanta two years ago.

sCANDALOUS STORY.
Effort to Connect Death of Reuxman
With the Dreyfus Case.

With the Dreyfus Case.
PARIS, July 9.-Scandalous reports are
in circulation in connection with the
death here yesterday of Signor ReuZman,
formerly Italian ambassador to France.
1t is alleged that While he was lying at
the point of death three Lersons, includ-
ing an official of the Italian embassy,
rifed his rooms and took away guam
tity of papers.
The anti-Semite papers connect the
story with the Dreyfus affair. 1t appears
that about a fortnight ago Signor ReuZ-
man had an immense quantity of docu-
ments destroyed, declaring that If they
were left they might harm various
people,"
1t Is also suggested that the search
may have been instigated by Signol
Crispi, the former italian prime minister,
who practically dismissed Signor Reuz-
man from the italian embassy in Paris
in 1896, because the diplomattst had failed
to make the French press favorable to
the Crispi government.

CURRENCY IN INDIA.
Gold Standard Recommended by the
ParItam entary Committee.

LONDON, July 9.-The report of the
parliamentary committee on Indian cur
rency, just issued in the form of a blue
book, approves the decision of the gov
eminent not to revert to a silver standard.
1t adds that it is impossible to continue
the status quo permanently, and says
that measures should be taken to adopt
the gold standard with the English SOW
ereign as the basis and that the minis be
opened for the coinage of gold and silver
the same as the English minis. 1t recon-
mends fixing the rupee rate at 16 pence
The report says in conclusion: THE eff
fective establishment of gold standard
IS of paramount Importance to the ma
terial interests of India, not only to pro-
mote existing trade, but to encourage the
influx of capital

Members of 1t Return to Tacoma
After Investigating the Interna-
tiOnaI boundary PrObIem-The
White and ChiI<OOt Passes Con-
stitute the Storm Center of the
Controversy.
TACOMA, Wash, July 9.-The Fair
banks-Foster Alaskan boundary party re-
turned from the north today, and inter-
views with members of the party indicate
that the water shed on White Pass hack
OF Skaguay and Dyea, will be accepted
as the international boundary line at that
point.
The White and Chilkoot passes consti-
tute the storm center of the Alaskan
boundary. At those points the Canadians
hope to secure concessions that will en-
able them to anchor down A port of en-
try into the Klondike gold fields. All
other parts of the country Whereabouts
where concessions are looked for are of
little Importance compared with the Lynn
canal, which is the key to the situation.
Senator Fairbanks, when interviewed,
placed Importance on the fact that he
must sit with the joint high commission
in August, but declined to state what
lines of argument he would take up. He
expressed great satisfaction with the
trip.
AS to the boundary matter Senator F0s-
ter said: Personally, I am opposed to
yielding an inch Of territory. Investiga-
ton, however, shows that there may be
different interpretations placed upon
treaties regarding channels, the charac-
ter Of lesser islands and the like In the
main the United States Is plainly given
strip of land north of the Portland
canal or Whereabouts, ten marine leagues
inland, except where a well defined noun
tain range places the line nearer to the
coast.
BOUNDARY LINE.
This strip running to Mount St. Elias
and ending at the passes of the water
shed back of Skaguay and Dyea is the
boundary line. Below this is the Lynn
canal and the KlOndike. Between these
two points is a chain of mountains, in
the opinion of some bringing the boun-
dairy line some eighteen miles nearer the
coast.
This seems to be a fair expression of
the American view of the boundary ques-
ton. BY this construction of the treaty
1t is held England will receive the benefit
of every point that can be fairly granted.
On the other hand, however, the Cana
dams and many of the English hold that
the boundary should be drawn thirty
miles, or ten marine leagues, inland from
the headlands. BY such q construction,
of course, Lynn canal would be an inlet
into Canadian territory and ten marine
leagues inland from the headIands at
the entrance would be many miles south
of Skaguay, hence Canada and Eng
land would have the coveted port of en-
try without a question of doubt. AS
look upon 1t, personally, Lynn canal is
a part of the ocean, therefore it would
be unfair to draw a line thirty miles
inland from the entrance to bodies of
water of that nature and call it the boun-
dairy under the treaty"
Wednesday night a reception will be
given here to Senator Foster, Congress-
men Dalzell and Hayne, the National
Editorial association, the officers of the
Iowa and McCulloch. Senator Fairbanks
has been invited to be present, but says
his duties in connection with the boun-
Diary dispute compel him to leave for the
East tonight, via Portland.
