CASE OF MISS STONE.
Government Officials Still Hopeful OF
Saving Her Life.

Washington, Oct 2l.-There ha.
been no report since Saturday at the
state department from Turkey or Bul
garia touching on Miss stones case
Oflcials are, however, still confident
that they will succeed in saving her
life, but whether by diplomacy or by
force is not clear.
The friendship Of the Russian gov.
ernment has much to do with the con
fidence OF the officials here. The
Turkish government has for its part
responded in cordial spirit to the a9
peal of the United States, and two
governments. Turkey and Bulgaria
have been put TO an expense equal ia
the amount OF the ransom demanded
by Miss stones captors in military
operations they have already directed
in her interest.

CHICAGO PosToFFlcE ROBBED.

We're ninety-seyen small holes around

contained over 100000 cash. The
latter evidently had been the objec-

flooring about 800 feet and bored n

secured the stamps and escaped car

been so weakened that il was possible
to take out the whole plate with little

the hole thus made and concealed the
work of the robbers while II was in
progress.
When discovered today, finger

SO carefully had the job been
planned that men working on other
parts of the building had not the

The building is a temporary affair

man to stand upright and their work
must have been comparatively easy

they used. The stamps were ar.

BRIEF REVIEW.
New Species of X-Rays Discovered.


Experiments with a new process
somewhat similar TO the celebrated
Roentgen, or X-rays, are being con-
Quoted in great secrecy at a Berlin, In
stitute, according to communication
received at the State Department from
Consul-General Guenther at Frankfort,
Germany. The new species of rays are
called Bacqueral rays, after their dis
coverer, a French chemist, who first
put his discovery before the public in
1895. In the Juror which the Roentgen
rays created in the medical world these
Bacqueral rays were lost sight of.
The experiments are said to have dis
closed the fact that an entirely new
element is responsible for the Bacqueral
rays and that they render almost every
transparent substance luminous in the
darkness. Consul-General Guenther
says that the new rays make it possible
to tell genuine diamonds from artificial
ones in the dark, which fact would
prove of great practical importance in
testing. The experiments, it is stated,
also have demonstrated that rays eman-
ating from a larger quantity of the
new elements make the air such con-
ductor of electricity as to promise that
the property can be utilized in wireless
telegraphy. The results of the expert
ments, it is stated, will be laid before
Emperor William, (which " says the
Consul-General, "seems to indicate that
the discovery is regarded as one of great
Importance.
