4 Washington. Oct. 9.-Not since the
successful attempt to save the life of
John Hays Hammond, the engineer
implicated in the Jamison raid, has
the state department put forth such
energetic efforts to save human life
as it is now exerting in behalf of Miss
Stone, the American missionary who
was captured by Bulgarian bandits.
A sum of money has been forwarded
to Spencer Eddy, the United States
secretary of legation at Constantine
pie, who has shown remarkable en-
ergy and ability in unearthing the
ramiflcations of the plot which re-
suited in the kidnapping of Miss
Stone. There is little doubt that the
Turkish government has done all that
it could be. expected to do to run down
the bandits and what is now to be
done is to secure similar action on the
part of the Bulgarian government and
to that end influence more potent with
the Slav races than that of the Unit
ed States government are now at
work. Should these measures j fail
then the ransom money must be paid
and that is why Mr.. Eddy has been
placed in possession of this powerful
auxiliary. The state department Off
cials deprecate most earnestly news
paper discussion Of the measures it is
taking in Miss Stones behalf, claiming
that it is being greatly embarrassed in
its efforts by such publications. Con
seQuently the officials refuse to give
any information concerning the case
beyond merely the negative statement
that they have not been informed of
the reported extension to one month
allowed for the ransom Of Miss Stone.

PRINCE CHUN.

Description of His Departure From
Shanghai for Germany.
From the Shanghai Mercury.
The departure of Prince <Chun took place
this morning half an hour earlier than the
time announced yesterday, and much dis
appointment was caused thereby, some of
the consuls arriving at the jetty tust as
tho revenue cruiser conveying his highness
down the river wds casting off. The whole
OF the route from the Bubbling Well road
to the 1etty was lined with policemen at
about ten PAGES apart, and some four hum
dred men were told off for this duty. HIS
highness and hts retinue proceeded In
chairs escorted by a posse of mounted
sikhs. A matshed had been erected on the
jetty, which, wasr profusely decorated with
colored trappingse and lanterns
The bridge leading to the jetty was a
perfect bower Of foliage and decorative
plants and flowers In full bloom, tassefnlly
arranged byothe superintendent of the pub
lie gardensai Hisdhighness, on arriving at
the jetty, immediately proceeded on beard
where he toOk leave of his eminence, the

deck presented arms. There was great
crowd of natives on the bund to see the
distinguished visitors off, but very few for
eigners, owing no doubt, to the fact, stated
above. that the embarkation took place
earlier than announced The rain was
pouring down almost in sheet at the time.
and this also doubtless initiated against q
large attendance.
The Chinese cruisers Haichow and Haichi
of the Peyang fleet arrived at Woosung 2
yesterday from Kianyin in order to fire a
salute on the departure of Prince Chun.
The prince intended to inspect the two
cruisers before embarking but found he

WASHINGTON.

Growing UpGtO the Far-Sishted Plans
of ItS, Founders.
From the Philadelphia Times.
Philadelphia and Washington are two
cities that were laid out. before they were
built, upon complete geometrical plans.
Philadelphia quickly outgrew these limita-
tions Washington, designed more than a
century later. Is only now growing up to
and filling out the far-sighted scheme Of Its
projectors. The two plans were as different
as their results. The surveyors plot Of
Philadelphia would have served for an in
terror town upon an open. level plain. Two
wide streets crossed at right angles, with
an open space at the intersection; there
was an open space or square about the
middle of each Of the four sections into
which the city was thus divided, and paral-
lei Streets In each direction. filled out the
allotted space, one mile In width and two
In length, with a river at each end. 1t was
a plan for city that was to grow from the
center, but 1t did not grow in this way.
1t was not considered that the Delaware
river must determine the plan of the town,
which already was struggling along the
river bank before the new streets were sur
veyed Front street and I'd street followed
the river for miles above and below the
limits Of Penn's city, and roads stretched
out in any direction that convenience sug-
gested, to Frankford, to Germantown, to
RoXboro and to the west and south. 1t
was many years before the checker-board
pattern really began to develop, and then 1t
imposed itself upon the city, as 1t grew be-
yond the original boundaries, with such un-
reasoning regularity, such disregard Of to-
Biography and convenience, that the actual
development Of Philadelphia has been with
out any intelligent plan at ALL We are now
trying to remedy some Of the defects that
foresight would have avoided.
Washington presents the strongest possi-
BILE contrast. For many years 1t was a plan
and nothing else. People laughed at its
magnificent distances, with few fine build
ings scattered In squalld wilderness. But
Washington has gradually grown into
great and beautiful city, and it has grown
exactly according to the noble. design
worked out by L'Enfant, under the inspira-
tion of the first President. The committee
of distinguished architects whom the Sem
ate committee on the District Of Columbia
wisely asked for advice on the DEVELOPMENT
of the park system of the capital and who
have lately returned from a visit to Euro
pean cities say that what they have to rec
ommend will be only the completion of
LEnfant's plans In the restoration of the
Mall, feature which had been obscured.
and the Improvement of the Potomac fats
for instance, they have only to add land
scape and architectural details to the orig
inal outlines. They will have suggestions
to make on the location and grouping Of
buildings and monuments, and they have
an important plan for a series of fountains.
but all these are only to complete the real
ization Of the beautiful city that was
framed in the imagination Of its projectors
