number be reduced to two. one a gener-
al election to be participated in by the
people in which all officers and electors
shall I've chosen, and the other. to choose
electors who will elect president and

Governor Wood also said that 1T is
the function OF the government of inter-

representatives. He recommended that

HARTMAN TAKES CONTROL.
Assumes Presidency of the Southern
Pacific-Hays to Return East.

San Francisco, Oct. 2.-The an
nouncenent that E. Fl. Hartman had
assuemd the presidency of the Southern
Pacific company, coupled with the APP
pointment of julius Kruttschnitt as
his assistant was received in this city
with considerable surprise, for the ele-
walton Of the fourth vice president to
be the chief administrative officer of
the corporation had not been predicted.
1t is understood that Mr.. Kruttschnitt
will assume most of the duties and re-
sponsibilities of the president, as all
officers heretofore reporting to the
president have been ordered to report
to him. E. H. Fitzhugh, who was re-
Gently appointed assistant to President
Hays. will soon return east. Z. III.
Huntington, first vice president of the
Southern Pacific, who has arrived here
from New York. said in an interview
that he would not again take an active
part in Southern Pacific affairs. AL
tho retaining the title of first vice
president, he was devoting his time, he
said, to his private affairs. Mr. Hunt
ington confirms the report that the Pa

Saw Lake Boat Burn.

Duluth, Mimi. Oct. 1.-Patrolman Ro-
berg, Of the police department, says that
lake boat burned off Duluth, well over
towaed the south shore, at about $3.50
yesterday morning. He was not on duty
at the time, but FASTENED to the nearest
patrol box and notified headquarters.
TIL. report that vessel had been de-
stroyed by fire off Duluth was carrent
all yesterday, and the tug Office was in
undated with calls for particulars, but
the tugmen could furnish no conflrma-
ton. The whole thing is a mystery thus
far. Roberg says he witnessed the fire
from his home, 1921 West Michigan
street.
His story is corroborated by his family
and neighbor who was astir early. Ro-
berg Is a cool-headed unimaginative
man. and his report is exciting much

that 1t will no longer be entitled to. sec
sond class rates. 1t will have opportun-
fly of making arguments before postal
officials why it should not be debarred
from second-class rates. The depart
ment will act upon each case separately.
1t is. we'll known that publications
which have no genuine subscription list
and are advertising sheets which are
practically given away, the money be-
ing made out of the advertising In them,
are carried in the mails at rate of /
cent pound, whereas 1t costs the gov
eminent about s cents a pound for their
transportation. In other words. the
government loses about cents on ev-
cry pound of that class of matter car
ried thru the mails. AS they are not
newspapers in any sense of the word,
but are purely advertising sheets, the
owners of which get rich at the expense
of the government they never We're en-
titled to be carried under the law at
5second-class rates. That has been done
as the result of a careless ruling in the
post Office department some years ago.
When the Loud bill was before con-
lgress to cut off such abuses a large
number of members offered as an ex-
icuse for opposing it that there was no
need of such legislation, as the post
master general had full authority to
bring about the reform without legisla-
ton. Where abuses have grown out of
mere department. regulations in the
past the postmaster general has merely
to change the regulations to bring about
the necessary reform. That has been
done, as far as can be done. under the
order that took effect yesterday.
Another matter which the post office
department has been called upon to
consider is that, of denying postal priv
sileges, to publications that advocate an
archism or which are the organs Of an
yarchistic societies. Publications that
advocate the destruction of the govern
Iment, it is held, are not entitled 10 the
use OF the mails any more than are

AZURE. 1t is doubtful If there is sufh-
Gent authority of law now to deny the
use OF the mails to such publications.

thority.

Scarcely country in Europe, South

to send promoters among the natives of
tropical countries and induce them to
realize that it is better to use steel plows

HOW MISS STONE WAS cAuoAT.
Letter From Missionary In Bulgaria
Gives Details Of the Abduction.

Gives Details Of the Abduction.
kansas City. Mo-. Oct IA detailed
account OF the capture OF Miss Ellen M.
Stone, the missionary, by brigands in
Turkey has been received in u letter
from n. C. Haskell. of Shmokcv, Bull
garia. Her letter says Miss Stone had
been holding her usual summer school
for Bible workers in Bansiko, Macedo-
MIA. On Sept. 3 party consisting of six
students from the collegiate institute at
Samokov. three or four Bulgarian teach
ers, Mr.. and Mrs. Tsilka, who had spent
several years in America, Mrs. Ooshera
and Miss Stone started for rJumiak,
twelve hours travel. From there they
were to go to their different homes.
At half past 4 that AFTERNOON, as they
were resting in the mountains. Miss
Stone and Mrs. Tsilka being on horse
back and the others on foot. they were
surrounded by thirty or forty armed
men. They were dressed in Turkish CO.'S
tune, but were masked or blaekened.
They ordered the party to march and
drove them up the steep mountain side.
Miss Stone told the boys they were tax
ing them away from the road to, rob and
perhaps kill them. She did not speak Of
capture, as 1t is almost unheard of for
brigands to take women.
After going an hours distance the
hrigands stopped and demanded their
money. They took what gold they had.
but returned the silver.
When this was done one of them
said to Miss Stone: We want YOU"
and ordered her and Mrs. Tsilka to go
with them. She made no remonstrance
Mr.. Tsilka made move to follow his
wife but they forced him back A part
|of the brigands kept watch on those
that remained to keep them from
hurrying to inform the government,
but next morning let them go.
The brigands murdered one of the
men Of the party before the eyes of
I the captives to get his horse. They
took this animal, as well as the horses
ridden by Miss Stone ana Mrs. Tsilka.
The students came to Samokov and
wired Dr.. House at Salonika. Miss
Stones station. He Immediately went
to the American Consul and also tele-
graphed Consul General dickinson,
who knew Miss Stone.
The news spread over Bulgaria like
q flash. for Miss Stone was widely
known and greatly beloved.
