OUR TRADE WITH Canada.
Importance of Reciprocal Trade Re-
lations with the "Lady
of the Shows.
MEANS MUCH TO AMERICAN PRODUCERS.
A Distinguished Delegation, Repre-.
senting Commercial Organfsa-
lions of Various Cities, Waits Up
On President Roosevelt and Calls
HIS Attention to the Matter.

Washington, Nov. IA distin-
guished body representing the COM
mercial organizations OF New York,
Boston, Buffalo, Pittsburg, Cleveland,
indianapolis and Cincinnati called up
on the president to urge the import
ance of reciprocity with Canada. The
delegation consisted of j. II. Lesson.
w. O. Blaney and +. G.. Preston, rep
resenting the chamber OF commerce
of Boston; Gustav ~. Schwab, chair
man. and Isador Strauss and S. Z.
Webb of the committee on foreign
commerce and revenue laws of the
chamber Of commerce of the state or
New York; Dewitt C.. Delamater, OF
the Detroit Merchants association; j.
II. McHugh, of the Cincinnati chamber
of commerce; d. n. Ransdell, repre-
senting the Indianapolis chamber OF
commerce.; NJ. s. Grcenough, of the
Cleveland chamber of commerce; Z.
II. Keep, of Buffalo, representing the
Lake Carriers association; Frederick
w. Woods, OF the Baltimore chamber
of commerce, and Geo. II. Anderson,
OF the Pttsburg chamber of COM
merce. Mr.. Lesson, of Boston, acted
as spokesman of the party. He told
the president that next to Great
Britain and Germany, the trade OF
Canada with the United States repre-.
scented more in money to the manu-
facturers and producers of the Unit
ed States than that OF any other
country, and that unless something
was done to further that trade in the
way of reciprocal concessions, all OF
It might be endangered.
The president received the delega-
ton cordially. lie said that he did
not need to be reminded of the i'm
portance Of question to which he
had given much thought and atten-
ton. He said, however, that he did
not think it proper for him to ex-
press preference for reciprocity
with one particular country; that the
whole subject was being canvassed,
and he hoped that something would
be done at the approaching session OF
congress. He added that the organi-
zations represented could do much by
bringing influence 70 bear upon their
representatives In congress.

women and girls who were employed
on the fifth floor, in Mrs. Graham's

When the fire 5roke out all the girls
made a rush for the rre escapes and
ladders. The fire spread so rapidly
however, that they could not use the
fire escapes, and it seemed that many
of them must perish. Ladders were
quickly sent up, however and all but
three of the women were taken from
the windows and carried TO safety by
firemen. Three who could not be
rescued, including Mrs. Graham,
jumped from the fifth-srory windows

Only Nine Of the Escaped Federal
Convicts New at Large-More
Captures Expected.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 1.-two
thirds of the convicts who escaped
from the TT. Leavenworth penitenti-
airy, last Wednesday, had been cap
tured up to this morning. Now only
nine are at liberty, and the chances
are strong that two at least Of these
will have been rounded up before the
day closes. Warden McClaughry, ut
the penitentiary, Wednesday morning,
received message from his deputies,
near Cottonwood Falls, where three
men were captured late Tuesday, say
ing that they were close on the heels

MYSTERIOUS MURDERS.
The Mystery Of Two Murdered
Women at Evansville, Ind,
Remains Unsolved.
BOTH KILLINGS DONE ABOUT ALIKE.
Each Body Shows the Marks of a
Strangler's Fingers, Leading TO
the Belief that One Person Com
mitted Both CrimeS-Two Other
Murders Recalled.

Evansville, Ind, Nov. 1.-THE mys-
terry of the two murders near this
city, Tuesday. remains unsolved. The
fact that both of the victims were
women; that both were killed in the
same manner, and evidently by the
same person, adds to the mystery.
What possible motive existed for
either crime no one is able to eX-
plain. Neither woman was known to
have had an enemy, and nothing is
known to link the two of them in any
way likely to furnish an excuse for
one man to attack both.
The body of Mrs. Georgia Railey
was found near the city beside the
public highway. There were finger
marks on the throat. The neck was
broken. The supposition is that the
woman was choked to death by some-
one in buggy and then, when she
fell out, her neck was broken. There
were evidences of the body being
dragged distance down the ditch.
A mile outside hecity, but in an OPP
positc direction, the body of Miss Lena
Renner was discovered by searchers.
Her throat also had finger marks
showing the manner of death to be
similar to that of Mrs. Railey.
John Kifer, who was seen with Miss
Renner, was arrested, but proved an
alibi and was released.
The similarity of circumstances OF
these two murders to two others in
this city in the last three years forms
strange coincidence in the case. In
April, 1898, Mrs. Mary Stork went
buggy riding with stranger. The
next morning her dead body was
found in n ditch. The man who took
her life was never discovered. Mrs.
Stork was prominent young woman
and great sensation followed her
death.
In April of the following year Miss
Kifer, of Elberfeld, Ind, while visit
ing here, suddenly disappeared. Her
body was found weighted down in a
creek the following month. Joseph D.
Keith, n wealthy farmer, has been
sentenced to be hanged next Friday
for the crime.

TIE CASE 0F MISS stone.
A Bulgarian Clergyman Has Just
Returned From Visiting
the Captive.
THEY ARE NOW At CERES, IN MACEDONIA
The Brigand Chief Declines to Low
err the Ransom, But IL II Pointed
Out How Their Release Might be
Secured by Means of Consular In
sistance.

New York, Nov. 14.-Ivan Molocheff,
q Bulgarian clergyman from uscub,
in Macedonia, has just arrived from
visiting Miss Stone, and is now in con,
sultation with Mr.. Dickinson, says a
Sofia (Bulgaria) dispatch to the Jour
nal and Advertiser.
"Miss Stone he said, "is in the
house of Bekir Bey, in the town of
Ceres. Macedonia. ! left her two days
ago, coming direct to Mr.. Dickinson
to try to arrange for her release.
Miss Stone and Nine. Tsilka are WELL
but the strain is terrific, and there is
danger that Miss Stone may loose her
mind. TO be always in the same sur
roundings is likely TO drive her crazy;
constantly looking at the same OBJ
iects has sem-mesmerized her, and
she has had n presentment that evil
will befv her.
"The brigand chief informs me that
he will now insist on the fun ransom,
as the length of time Miss Stone has
been left on his hands leaves no mar
gins for bargaining. The name of
the brigand chief is Deryich Younouse,
and he is an Albanian. Bekir Bey, in
whose house Miss Stone is confined, Is
hand-in-gIoye with the brigand chief.
Bekir Bey assisted the brigands by
keeping Miss Stone for 80 days in the
mountains before taking her to his
house.
"There are about one hundred and
fifty Macedonians imprisoned in con.
nection with the Stone affair by thu
Turkish officials. ! want no personal
compensation, but ] want the Mace
domains released. II the American
English and French consuIs at Salonf
ca insist upon Bekir Bey releasing
Miss Stone il will be necessary to deal
with the brigands, and we can get her
release without paying ransom
