CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 2.-The case of Miss Stone has again become more serious. The brigands, it ap- pears, are still holding out for the 925,- poo ransom, and it is feared that, should they persist in their demand, Miss Stone will have to be sacrificed.

Anxiety prevails at the United States legation, whence there has been an active exchange of tele- grams between Secretary Spencer Ed dy and various points. MT. Eddy has had long conference with Sir Nicho- las R. O'Conor, the British ambassador here, who is actively assisting in the efforts to bring about Miss Stones re- lease

 Rooms Last Night

hOOInS l4dSL NELL
 It was a fitting testimonial to the members of the Brooklyn A. C.'s star base ball team during the past season that they should be accorded such q reception as that of last evening at the B. A. C.'s rooms. The players deserved it. The wall and ceiling of the club rooms were almost hidden from view by profusion of bunting and flags. Occupying q prominent po- sition in the clubs parlors was the handsome silver trophy which the club won in the City Amateur league Nearby was gift of friends to the ball team in the shape of miniature bats and balls.

About fifty cou- pies followed, among them being the manager, captain and members of the ball line with their lady friends.

Americas Greatest Railroad.

America is the ~possessor of the best
railroads in the world, and while this
may seem a broad statement, it is alb
solutely true. Such rank can only re
gained by establishing a system that
stands for perfection. This is also
true about medicine. About fifty years
ago a remedy was first introduced for
stomach, liver and bowel complaints,
and during those years has been rec
ognized as the limit of science in pre-
senting a perfect medicine. We refer
to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. When
your stomach becomes %deranged, and
you suffer from Indigestion. dyspep-
STA, fatulency, nervousness or insom-
MIA, you will make no mistake in trying
this sovereign remedy. 1t will strength
en- your stomach. purify the blood and
prevent malaria, fever and ague. 1t
will surely do you good. Avoid substi-

My time is too limited to present the
many and sound reasons that might
be adduced in support of this conten.
ton, but there is n which may be
briefly mentioned hat will appeal to
your judgment and command your sup,
port. 1t involves the problem of
equitable distribution. In order to
make this clear it may be stated that
a large majority of the reservoirs will
be constructed in rough and mountain.
districts and upon and across the
beds of the streams that fill them, for
the reason that nearly all the sites
fitted by nature for this purpose are
found in these localities. 1t may be
further stated that the natural beds
of the streams must be used in trans
porting the water to the land wherein
it is to be used. In all these cases it
must be borne in mind that the ordi-
nary flow of the stream has been fully
appropriated under state laws, SO that
in the event of national interference
the problem of how to separate these
mingled waters, not by one authority
having control over both. but by two
authorities each endeavoring to secure
his full proportion of them, must at
once be solved. The same difficulties
attach to reservoirs built away from
the stream and to a canal also, since
both must depend for water upon 4
source from which the major portion
has previously been appropriated.
Under these conditions it seems i'm.
possible that friction followed by con-
f1ict could be avoided.
1t is believed, however, that not
withstanding the differences which
now exist between those who hold that
it is the nations plain duty to under
take irrigation development in the
arid states and those who as strenu.
ously insist that the states must solve
these questions for themselves, that
progress towards governmental aid Is
being made. Just how this will be eX-
tended or what part the states them
selves shall take in the work must, of
course, be left to congress, but it Is
not least among the encouraging
signs of the times that for the first
time in the history Of irrigation agi-
tation, the west has the president Of
the United States in active sympathy
and support of their claims. In his re-
cent message to congress the president
views so exactly In accord
ance with the views so long accepted
in Wyoming, that ] cannot forbear
quoting them here. He says, The. dis
tribution of water, the division of the
streams among the %irrigators, should
be left to the settlers themselves in
conformity with state laws, or with
vested rights" And again, whoever
controls a stream practically controls
the land it renders productive and the
of nriyate ownership of water
apart from land cannot prevail with
out enduring wrong" And still again
as if to emphasize and make more EN-
phatic views that are not wholly in
dorsed in some parts Of the west, al
though exactly agreeing with the
views held by u board of control and
for the past ten years embodied in
their DEGREES adjudicatine water
rights. I'm the arid states the only
right to water which should be recog-
nized is that of use In irrigation this
right should attach to the land reclaim
ed and be inseparable therefrom."
