London, October 19.-The Shanghai
correspondent of the Times wiring yes
terday, says:
''The Taotai has applied to the consuIs
to arrest over 100 Chinese who reside
in the foreign settlements, on charge
Of conspiracy. Those named include
several we'll known Cinnamon, whose
only crime is that they possess progress
sive ideas.
"This demand Is significant of the
growing influence of the anti. foreign
party. The fact that tribute OF rice
is regularly shipped up the Yang Use
Kiang, proves that the viceroys are still
supporting the Empress Dowager.' -

Forty thousand dollars is believed to be
a conservative estimate Of the amount of

stamps stolen from post Office station in

even went so far as to keep the matter
from the New York police and the secret
service agents.

that Best was up round the farm with
man named McGillis. Tt is reported that
theI chore boy Winfield Rowe heard Best
ask McGillis some question in which the
name of Bailey figured and he caught the
words edo with him. Best had been
away from the farm that day and had
been drinking. He returned to the farm
on the 10th after his absence. Then there
was man with him. The latter drove
away and Best returned alone. Nobody
seems to know much about Best COM
panion except that his name was Shaw.
Best says he met the man In a saloon in
Lynn and invited the stranger to stay
with him. When they got to the farm the
stranger decided he did not wish to re-
main and Best drove with him to car
line SO that he could return to Lynn.
The police are inclined to the belief
that the body was taken away from the
farm and later cut up ready for disposal.
State Officer Neal incIines to the theory
that two men were concerned In the job.
1t is known that Best and Bailey had
trouble over Miss Young. Bailey was jeal-
GUS of Best, and the latter says they had
had words, but never anything developed
worse than hard feelings. An effort win
be made to obtain statement from Miss
Young and to induce her to come to
Lynn. After a period of drinking, now
that Best had come to his normal condi.
tion, he appears to be weakening, and 1t
would not be surprising If he gave some
further information which may prove of
interest in the case.
SUSIE YOUNG IN WISCAsSET.
Wiscasset, October 18.-Miss Susan L.
Young, formerly housekeeper for George
E. Bailey, the missing lodge keeper, is
at the home of her mother, about two
miles from this village. When seen to-
day. Miss Young said she had not heard
from Bailey since she left the farmhouse
at Break Heart hill. September 27 last.
She said that when she left the farm
house she was on the best of terms
with Bailey, and that her departure
was the result of a request from her
mother that she come home for a time be-
cause of illness in the family.
After arriving in Wiscasset she heard
nothing from her formerghome until Oc-
tober 16, when she received a letter frcm
man named johnson in Lynn, asking
her where Bailey could be found. She
replied to the letter that unless Bailey
was at the farm she could not give any
information as to his whereabouts.
Miss Young said she believed i'll feel
ing had existed between Bailey and John
g. Best for some time. She did not know
the cause for it, however. Best, she said,
she considered as a dangerous man. and
upon one occasion when two men had
called at the house to see Bailey, Best
became very nervous and drawing a
knife from his pocket, said TO her IN an
undertone: "They'd better t touch
me now. She said that Best always
carried the knife with him.

PLACER MINING REVIVAL.
Properties Being Actively Worked In the
Granite District.

The North Fork of the John Day prom.
ises ere long to regain its old.time repu.
tation Of a producer Of placer gold. The
reason that but little gold has been taken
out of its rich gravel banks during the
past few years is that some Of the best
properties have been tied up, while others
have been worked only IN a deSultory
manner. This year the record will be
different.
Al the Thornburg Pacers, Manager
VIM. S. Duncan has a force Of eight men
at work, together with two giants, max.
preparations for more extensive operations

already equipped with four foru.nch giants
and has a water fall OF $50 feet from q
mile ditch. Several derricks are being
set up tor moving large boulders, and as
soon rs they are In place all four OF the
giants on the ground will he set to work

THIS THE BANNER YEAR

When asked by q Portland Telegram re-.
porter II there would be any new mines

that II is q presidential election year, with
the usual accompaniment 0t the cry OF
hard times and slow business, there are
nifty per cent mote people IN the hills
of Baker than ever before, and representa-.
tives OF large capital are already making

are such mines as the Golconda and Red

but eight or ten new properties viii be
added to the list oi producers before snow
