AN IMPROVED TONE

day-Many stocks showed Net

Gains.
NEW YORK. September 26.-The
tone Of to-day's stock market showed
improvement over yesterday. There
was considerable evidence of realizing
still, which persisted after the opening
dip and showed tendency TO reeur
from time TO time, but support was
forthcoming on every decline and be-
fore the day ended, the bears were
generally disposed to cover their short
lines, causing practically a complete
recovery of all the losses. Not few
stocks showed decided net gains. in
Guiding Amalgamated Copper, Anacon-
da. the Vanderbilts. Pennsylvania, Bal
t,more & Ohio, st. Paul, Chicago, Great
Western. Manhattan and Peoples Gas.
The opening losses were due to the de-
moralizing effect upon Copper mining
shares in the foreign narkets of the
break in Amalgamated.
The relief to sentiment afforded by
the recovery In Amalgamated over
Swallowed ali other considerations The
severe liquidation in some of the rail-
road stocks which was feature yester-
DAY. was not in evidence and the fears
felt of unfavorable developments in the
companies not yet known to the public
were relieved. The selling was ex-
planned as being due to liquidation by
bull pools and suggestions were heard
of internal dissensions between mem
bers of the pools to account for the IL
uuidatlon. The very favorable reports
OF iron trade outlook including the rise
in price OF pig iron and assertions that
large orders for steel rails would &c

cheering indication The announce

NEW YORK, September 26.-3:5s p.
m.-With the declaration of the re-
duced dividend on Anaconda all the
bad news on the copper stocks was out.
for the time being, at least. and It was
natural that a decided rally should
take place, with the relief from the
combination of bad news that has
transpired within the last few days.
The list of industrials during the day
maintained a fairly ctrong tone, and
showed rather a hardening tendency in
anticipation of dividend declarations
on the United States Steel stocks next
week. The market closes with greater
activity and a more hopeful feeling,
which in turn might have been pro-
duced by the better prices prevailing.

JONES is A REPUBLICAN
NEVADA MAN SAYS SILVER ISSUE
IS DEAD.

RENO, New, Oct. 26.-United Stats
Senator John p Jones, of Nevada, made
the announcement to his friends today
that the evolution of political issues
placed him again III alignment with the
Republican party.
"I have suffered no change in any of
the convictions / have entertained in the
past" said the senator, 'and my return
to the Republican party does violence
to none of those convictions. T am as
sincere a believer in the doctrine of BIZ
metallism as when 1 left the Republican
party solely for that cause, and were
the conditions today as then, would
be numbered among those defending it.
The enormous output of gold, however
have accomplished. The silver issue is
dead and we are face to face with other
issues. I have always acted with the
Republican party upon every question
but silver. I believe in the alignment o.
political parties today the Republican
party is the only one which is in touch
with the economic progress of the
twentieth century,"
Asked whether he would be candidate
for reelection, Senator Jones said:
Nothing would delight me more than
that some strong Republican who we can
elect would come out as a candidate for
the senate, and [ will support him with
all my heart"
Senator Jones departed last night for
Washington, where he will attend the
wedding of Gen. Corbin and Miss Edith
Patton and give away the bride, who is
the daughter of an old-time Comstock
friend.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
WORKS SUCCESSFULLY WITH

WITH

LONDON, Oct. 2s-The naval at
taches of the United States, Ger
man and Austrian embassies in
London today officially inspected the
Orling-Armstrong system of wireless
telegraphy and telephony, in which earth
currents are used. Commander Glover, rep
resenting the Unite States operated the
transmitter. Messages III Morse CHAR
acters were satisfactorily sent a distance
OF three-quarters of a mile.
A short iron bed was stuck in the
ground at the sending and receiving sta
tons and the instruments were connected
with these rods. The inventors claim to
have operated in a similar manner over
distance of twenty miles,
In the next experiment the instruments
were connected with a semaphore ap-
paratus, the arms of which were thrown
up and down at distance of three
quarters of mile. An attempt to con-
troll the steering apparatus of a torpedo
at the same distance, was more or less
successful, but the trial of telephone
communication failed
Commander Clover also went to Wake
neid Yorkshire, to inspect a specially
constructed pressed steel boat, several
OF which have been ordered for the
British and Russian nav1es. These boats
are likely to supersede wooden ships
boats, as they are lighter and do away
entirely with the danger of splinters.

CHARGE AGAINST COLORADO GAME
WARDEN
Indian Agent Myton Also Alleges
That His Charges Are Arrested
and Prosecuted With
out Cause.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26-The game
warden and deputies of Colorado, are
severely arraigned in a report received
by the Indian bureau today from Indian
Agent Myton, of the White Rocks, Utah,
reservation, now at Meeker, Col, after an
investigation of the alleged infraction of
the Colorado game laws by his Indians
Mr.. Myton reiterates' his charges of per-
secution of Egglestone, one of the In
dains who was arrested and acquitted of
the charges and was then rearrested.
The interior department has asked the
department of justice, to defend Egg
glest
Mr.. Myton charges that the game
wardens took the Indians from Rio
Blanco county without any process of
law and that public opinion is entirely
with the Indians. He says three Indians,
three women and a boy were forced to
trial without an interpreter and after
being acquitted at 10 o'clock at night,
were started at l O'Clock in the morning
ostensibly for their agency. ABOUT ten
miles from Meeker,'' he said, .'the In
dams discovered he (the deputy had lied
to them and he was taking them to the
railroad. They all broke away from the
deputies except Egglestone and he is now
In jail at Glenwood Springs. They scat
tered the Indians property all along the
road, and much of it has been stolen or
destroyed. Suit should be brought
against the game warden to have him

ON EUROPEAN STATION
ADMIRAL CROWNINSHIELD WILL

Succeeded as Head of Bureau of
Navigation by Another Enemy
to SchIey, Rear Admiral
III. c. Taylor.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2t.-secretary
Long announced today that Admiral A.
S CrowninshieId, chief of the navigation
bureau at present, would be detached
from that position and take command of
the European squadron next March, he
ing relieved of his present duties by Ad-
miral Henry c. taylor. The secretary
said that this plan had been arranged
last April when upon the expiration OF
Admiral Crowninshield's four years
commission as chief of the navigation
bureau, he was re-commissioned for
another term. The date was fixed as
March next because on that day Ad-
mlral Crowninshield who now holds the
title of eX-officio, as head of the naviga-
tion bureau, will become rear admiral
In fact, through the ordinary course OF
retirement and promotion 1t is the rule
Tor an admiral to fly his flag over a
squadron in active service before he re-
tires, and this would not be possible In
ADMIRAL Crowninshield's case were he to
serve out his present commission, for he

SAFE IN STORE OF LAWRENCE a.
BRIGHTMAN, BEREA, OHIO, IS
DYNAMITED
MORE THAN 100000 TAKEN
Singular Feature Is That Persons
Living Near Failed to Hear
the Noise of the Ex-
plOsiOn
MASSIVE SAFE IS WRECKED

BEREA, o., Oct. 26.-One of the bold
est safe robberies ever perpetrated in this
vicinity occurred at an early hour this
morning in almost the heart of the viii
lage The hardware store of Lawrence
& Brightman was entered, the large safe
was wrecked, and the robbers made good
their escape with more than 100000.
Baldwin university bears the heaviest
loss. c. C. Brightman. the junior mem
ber of the firm, is also the treasurer ana
a trustee of Baldwin university, and all
of the valuable papers of the Institution
which were left in Brightman's custody
were kept in the safe. Bonds, notes and
mortgages of the university, aggregating
100000 in value, were secured by the rob-
bers. Many of the notes held by Baldwin
university were of long standing and
bore numerous Endorsements, making it
impossible to produce them in duplicate.
A diligent search for the thieves has been
instituted, but as yet no clew as to their
whereabouts or identity has been es-
tablished.
, A fact regarded as most singular is
that the explosion of the safe was heard
by parties residing a half mile north and
more than that distance southwest of the
center of town, While those residing in
the business district were unaware that
an explosion had occurred.
The force of the explosion was most
terrific. The safe was Constructed on fire
and burglar proof principles, yet the
heavy doors were twisted from their
hinges as if made of paper, and large
pieces of the safe doors were firmly en-
bedded in the walls of the building, one
section weighing fifty pounds being blown
clear through partition into an adjoin-
ing room. Six men are believed to nave
been engaged in the affair.

BY JURY

Life as an Accessory Before the
Fact to the Murder of
William GoebeI.

GEORGETOWN, KY, Oct. 26.-EX-Sec-

of guilty soon followed.
Powers sat pale and motionless when
the verdict was announced by the fore
man, B. S. Calvert, his old schoolmats.
Opposite Powers, on the other side of the
court room with the attorneys, sat Ar
thur Goebel, brother of the late senator
and governor, with his eyes fixed on the
prisoner. The attorneys of Powers shook
his hand, expressing aloud their belief in
his innocence. Women crowded around
Powers, embracing and kissing him and
tears were shed. The defense having
fled motion for a new trial, Judge
Cantrill, at 4:30 .. M, heard arguments
on the same.
The jury took the case at 2:20 and was
out fifty minutes. A motion for a new
trial was oyerruled and the case will
pc appealed. The sentence was read and
Judgment suspended pending the decision
OF the higher tribunal. Powers was taken
TO FRANKFORT on an evening train and
committed to jail without bail.
