DICKlNSON'S FAULT.
Consul Said to Have Delayed
Miss Stones Release.

London, Oct. 19.-Four thousand Bull
garian and Turkish troops have been
occupied in the effort to obtain Miss
Stones release, says a dispatch from
Sofia to the Morning Leader. 1t is be-
lieved here that her release would have
been effected but for Mr.. Dickinson's
refusal to offer her captors more than
an ordinary pour boire. Mr. Dickin-
sons extraordinary action is regarded
as suicidal A large sum must be paid
to the brigands, as otherwise Miss
Stones life will be sacrificed. If Mr..
Dickinson desires vengeance on the
brigands the women must be ransomed
first.
BULGARIA IS INDIGNANT.
Vienna, Oct. 19.-According to the
Politische Correspondez, M. Saratoff,
Bulgarian minister of the interior and
ad interim minister of foreign affairs,
addressed a note to Mr. Dickinson
United States consul at Constantinople,
a few days ago, in which after COM
planning that the consul general had ex-
pressed dissatisfaction with the meas
ures the Bulgarian government had
taken against the kidnapers of Miss
Stone, he strongly protested against
his government being held responsible
for a crime committed on Turkish ter
ritory, and declared that in order to
guard itself against a serious and un-
merited accusation the Bulgarian gov
ernment had resolved should the rob-
ber band try to cross the Bulgarian
frontier or succeed in stealing into Bull
garia, to have it mercilessly pursued
and annihilated by Bulgarian troops.
I'VE will not enter into any negotia-
tions whatever for paying ransom, =
said NJ. Saratoff, '.as we do not want
precedents established for the many
robbers infesting the neighborhood to
turn to Bulgaria whenever this seems
to their advantage. We are firmly de-
termined to make an example which
will deter robbers from repeating such
speculations.
TT will then be no longer possible to
accuse Bulgaria of harboring secret
committees which organize bands for
kidnapping foreigners in Turkey and re-
moving them to Bulgaria. there peace
fully to enjoy the ransom they ex-
tort

K. C. TIMES SOLD.
1t Becomes the Property of Col.
Nelson of the Star.

Kansas City, Oct. 19.-It is reported
that for a consideration of real estate,
appraised by the vendor at $4,000,
George Lee Chrisman, in behalf of the
Times Publishing company. has sold 10
William r. Nelson, proprietor of the
Star, the franchise and good will of the
Times. The Times Publishing company
remains in existence for the purpose OF
liquidating it's indebtedness and to sue
on certain subscriptions for stock
which were signed for but not paid.
The report goes on to say the old
offices of the Times are to be closed.
Not a stick of furniture and no me-
chanical appliance is to be taken over
to the Star office.
The old owners of the Times are to
pay all the outstanding Indebtedness
on the plant, which includes $4,000 OF
a paper bill. The Times management
retains all the plant, most of which is
understood to be of an antiquated pat
tern and not worth any great sum OF
money.

Distinguished Author Becomes
a Candidate For a Seat
In the Parliament of the Isle of
Man.
HE WRITES PLATFORM
Which Puts Him in the Front
Row of RefOrmers.
Fav0rs Naturalization of the
Steamship Service.

London, Oct. 19.-Han Caine has con-
sented to become a candidate for the
Manx parliament in behalf of the town
of Ramsay. His opponent is a local
lawyer. Mr.. Gaines address has Gre
ated consternationa even among his
own supporters, for he advocates
sweeping changes that might well be
planks in national platform of some
great reform party. First of all, Mr..
Caine wants to nationalize the steam
ship service connecting the Isle of
Man with England, running it without
profit. Then he applies himself to the
Manx steam and street railways, and
would furnish the same radical system
te them. Land must be treated in a
somewhat similar manner, the Manx
parliament controlling the drainage, the
cultivation and tree planting. The
banks, of course, are included in this
naturalization scheme, by which Mr.
Caine believes that such financial scan
dals as occurred on the Isle of Man
last year would be avoided.
Mr.. Caine justifies these apparently
Improbable national undertakings by
pointing out that the primary factor in
Manx prosperity is the islands popu-
larity as a holiday resort, and that it
must prosper or decline as 1t meets the
needs of the visitors.
With a parting reference to the ne
nessity for reform of the system of
representation and ridding the legal
system of its anachronisttc superhui-
ties, the author commits himself and
his programme into the hands of the
intelligent citizens of Ramsay.

HANNA WILL BE TRUE.
He Will Support Roosevelt just as
He Did Mckinley.

Cleveland, O., Oct 19.-Concerning
published reports that President Roose-
welt had asked him to be to him just
what he was to President Mckinley,
Senator Hanna, in an interview today,
said he had not seen the reported con-
versations, but he made the statement
that whatever talks he had had with
President Roosevelt were entirely salts
factory and that the m after published
had not been given out by him. He said
further that he would support Presi-
dent Roosevelt as cordially and as
frankly as he had supported President
Mckinley. Concerning the reports that
Senator Hanna would resign as chair
man of the Republican national COM
mittee an intimate friend said there
was little probability of his doing SO.

U. 8. Patent Laws Find Favor in
England.

London, Oct. 19.-Lord Rosebery' 8
speech at Birmingham October Is, on
the ''sin of the national elf-complacency"
has ELECTED many concentrations in the
serious weeklies. One of the most in
teresting of these is the appeal of a
would-be patentee for a revision of the
British patent laws. He declares that
the British authorities issue a dozen So
called patents for practically the same
invention and then leave all the appli-
cants to fight out their rights in the
courts.
Let our government he says, give
US American patent laws. Let us en-
courage inventors to stay at home We
need all the brains we can get hold of;
let not America drain away too much of
our best"
The Outlook commenting on the above
says:
England thus complacently allows
the United States by superior patent
laws to drain away inventive skill so
much needed in England"

GRINSTEaD IS OUT.
Editor Released From Jail on
Habeas Corpus.

The supreme court today ordered the
release of Pool Grinstead, the Wathena
editor who is in Jail at Troy. Grin
stead's sentence expired one day this
week, but the authorities held him be-
cause he had not paid the costs in the
case. The county paid them.
A M. Harvey had a writ of habeas
corpus allowed by the supreme court
this morning. The contention made is
that the costs are paid, no matter who
paid them, and Grinstead is entitled to
his freedom. The writ is made return
able at the November term In the
meantime Grinstead is to be let out on
$500 bond.

Brooklyn was under fire from the
Spanish ships.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-While En-
sigl Hailgan OF the Brooklyn was
on the stand in the Schley court on
Thursday, Mr.. Rayner sought to bring
out the information as To the American
ships in sight al the beginning OF the
battle OF July 3, but Judge Advocate
Lemly objected on the ground That the
question was intended TO show the ap-
sence OF the New York and the inter-
rogation was Withdrawn. Ensigu Mar
bic stated that he had heard Captain
Slgsbee tell Commodore Smiley when
he Came aboard the Brooklyn on May
rs that the Spaniards were not al SAn-
Llago.
Daring the examination of Commo-
dore Griffin he was asked by Rayner:
did you ever have any conversation
with Commodore SchleY before July 3,
relative 10 the Brooklyn going TO Guam
tanamo for coal?"
"ln substance, l mentioned the fact
that other ships Of the squadron were
in the habit OF going 10 Guantanamo
Tor coal. We had had some difficulty IN
coaling in the open off Santiago. The
Commodore replied that he had been
asked on several occasions If he would
like to 60 TO Guatanamo, where he
could coal quietly and give the officers
and men rest from the strain of
blockade?"
"He said that his answer was in each
case that he preferred TO remain on the
station until the Spanish ships came out
OF the harbor."
Mr.. Hanna asked: ''Did you hear
Commodore Schley say anything about
leaving Cienfuegos?"
81 did not"
"Or the coaling difficulties3"
IL do not remember, l knew he was
always extremely ANXIOUS and seemed
reaoy TO coal whenever there was an
opportunity. do not remember suy
particular conversation. The CONVEX
satlon about going to Guantanamo i'm
pressed me particularly because after
ward l thought 1t such wise dec-
sion"
James A. Hand, an ensign who had
served on the Brooklyn as naval ca
oct, told of the delay of the progress
of The fleet between Centuegos and
Santiago, saying IL was due to the Mer-
rimac, the Eagle and The Vixen.
The witness testified that on the day
of the battle of July he was at the
central station and received from Com
modore Schey and Captain Cook Gu
couraging messages to the men and
that one of theHe from the commodore
was received with "Three cheers for the
commodore"
Ensign Ralph N. Marble related a
conversation he had heard between
Captain Sigsbee and Commodore Schley
when the latter came aboard the Brook
Ign May 26, off Santiago. The COM
modore had asked the captain, the
witness said, "Have we got them?'
To this inquiry Captain Sigsbee said
"No, they are not here. / have been
here for about week. They could
not have been here unless / knew it.'
DIR. Paul Fitzsimmons, chief surgeon
of the flying squadron, observed the
battle of July 3 from the gun deck Of
the Brooklyn and said that it seemed
to him at the time that the Brooklyn
was fighting the battle entirely alone
He thought the Brooklyn kept the Col
on from getting away.

LATE PICKLES AND REL1sHES
by Louis Role.


Some hOusekeepers seem fated to be q
little behind their neighbors in every
thing they do. They never think Of fill
ing the pantry with preserves. jams and
other good things that every one wishes
to have in abundance until all the up
to-date women are well provided for and
ready to undertake some other house
hold care. 1t is to all appearance dis
ease with some people, this being little
behind, and it is for the benefit OF these
unfortunate ones that | write at this
time. At the same time there are no
doubt others who, by reason of sickness
or some other cause are n little behind
who may be benefited by the hints given.
While it is now too late to put up a
desirable cucumber pickle, as the first
product of the vines should be used to
get the best results there is still time
to secure n good mixed pickle as a sub
stitute. The mixed pickle was first pro-
duced as a means of getting rid of the
late and poorly shaped cucumbers that
would not make presentable pickle
otherwise. | am fond of rather sharp,
hot pickle and | prepare a mixed pickle
as follows: To two quarts of cucum-
bers cut into medium sized pieces allow
one quart each of green peppers, cauli-
flower and onions. Use medium sized
onions and green peppers and cut them
in halves and separate the caulilower
into small pieces; mix all together in a
deep earthen dish sprinkle well with
salt and let stand over night; drain in
the morning and put in the pickle jar,
covering completely with white wine
vinegar. You may use less quantity
of onion and peppers if you desire, but
do not omit them altogether. You may
also use cider vinegar, but it is not so
desirable.
Another late pickle that you may put
up is made of sliced tomatoes and
onions. Wash and cut in slices half
peck of green tomatoes, also six large
onions. Put them in a preserving kettle,
sprinkle over them half cupful of salt
and let them stand twenty -four hours,
then drain them in a sieve. Return the
vegetables to the kettle, add half an
ounce of ground pepper, two ounces of
mustard seed, one teaspoonful of ground
cloves, two tablespoonfuls of celery
seed, half a cupful of sugar and suffi-
cient vinegar to cover all. Boil five min
utes, counting from the time the boiling
begins. and keep the kettle covered.
Remove and put them in jars. Close
and put aside for use.

growth has stopped in the fall; trim off
all small shoots and place the selected
