SULTAN TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE
London Story Has 1t That America Wiz

London story Has 1t Ihat America WI
Make Naval Demonstration.
London, Oct. 12.-After detailing
Che history of the abduction Of Miss
Stone, the Spectator remarks:
president Roosevelt and the Wash
ington cabinet maintain justly that
the sultan is responsible, as it is his
misgovernment which provokes and
protects brigandage, and they intend
to demand PREPARATION from the porte.
1t will not be limited, we imagine,
to s25,0o0. The porte will be required
to punish the authors of the outrage,
and as Turkey is sure to shuttle and
as America is tired of being played
with, naval demonstration is on
the cards. The sultan will of course
yield to the first show of force.''
Constantinople, Oct. I'm com
pliance with request from Wash
ington, the search by the Ottoman
troops for the abductors of Miss
Stone, the American missionary, has
been abandoned, it being feared that
the brigands would kill her should
they be closely pursued Arrange
ments are now being made to pay
the ransom demanded.

Inhuman Trainmen.

A special to the Republican from Kingman says: A trainload of cattle en route from Texas to California passed Kingman to-day with three cars on fire. Citizens extinguished the fire on two of the cars. The other was too far gone to put out. Some cattlemen broke open the car door to release the cattle from the burning car, but the trainmen closed the door and refused to allow the cattle to be turned out. Twenty-Five were burned alive. The car was run on sidetrack and allowed to burn.
 Many citizens witnessed the terrible scene of the cattle rushing frantically around in the burning car until burned to death. There was great indignation at the action of the trainmen, who re- fused to allow the citizens to release the cattle. The entire town is filled to- night with the awful odor of burning flesh
