Kansas City, Nov 12.-Alother of

prison at Fort LeavenwoEth was laid
low during the morning near Quenemo,
40 miles southwest from the peniten-

PASSENGERS HELD UP.
Daring Work of Masked Men at Val.
lev Cifv NJ r.

Valley City, N. D., Nov. 12.-Within
the city limits, and while it was yet
day, McReady's bus was boldly held
up at o'clock by masked men, who
secured about S400 from the II pas
sengers.
The bus had started for North Val
ley City to meet the westbound 500
passengers. When the outskirts of the
town were reached the driver was
forced to come to a sudden stop. An
attorney named Coombs saw the need
for speedy action, and quietly rolling
from his seat beside the driver, he
made his way hurriedly and unobserv-
ed to the nearest house, where he sum-
moned the police by telephone.
The officers arrived too late, how
ever, for the highwaymen made a
quick job OF it, and after collecting all
of the valuables carried by the un-
lucky passengers, skunk away into the
falling darkness and were gone. There
is not the slightest clue to the identity
of the nervy road agents.

Minneapolis, Nov. 12.-Wheat

much larger than a year ago and this
was the principal bearish feature of
the day. There was a fair demand

TESTING kocH's THEORY.
Young Woman lnocuIated With Bovine
Tuber-ie Baciili. -

New York, Nov. ia young wo-
man has just been inoculated with the
virus from cow suffering from tuber-
culosis by DR.. George D. Barney of
Brooklyn. The solution of bovine tu-
bercle bacilli was injected on each side
of the woman's neck, just above the
cleavicle, the quantity Of the injection
being about one and one-half d-ams.
The woman was Miss Emma H. King
of Brooklyn. She offered to submit to
this experiment, it was said, in order
that the medical profession might
know whether or not Professor Koch's
theory that bovine tubercle baeilli
cannot infect human beings was COR
rect. The COW from which the virus
was taken was inoculated with virus
of a consunlptive person some time
ago by DR.. Barney. DR.. Barney said
he was also anxious to prove that per-
sons suffering from consumption in it's
early stages can be cured by the inha-
lation of compound of the phenol
group. Should Miss King be stricken
with consumption as result of the
experiment she will undergo the inha-
lation treatment.

urging him to recommend in his mes.

President Roosevelt Immediately sent
an inquiry to Governor Hunt as to the
cause of the arrest.
President Roosevelt has not been

His representative has visited the

The president is opposed to the prac.

Preachers Declare That Milwaukee Is

Milwaukee, Nov. 12.-The Milwau-

its "civic righteousness campaign.
Four preachers delivered sermons
based upon the report of the commit
tee who based their conclusions as to
the moral condition of Milwaukee upon
detailed statement made by de-
tective employed for the purpose.
This report was made several days
ago but was kept secret until read
in part to the several congregations
whose preachers have entered the
campaign. The police and the mayor
charge that the move is political, and
that the report of the detective and
the committee is gross exaggeration
of the facts.
Milwaukee up to this time has not
had the reputation of being tough

mination on the part of the preachers

United States Wants to Be Left Free
to Deal With Islands as It IA
- .. @
May Choose. ~

Washington Nov. 12.-The project
ed treaty of cession of the British Wect
Indies to the United States is not so
well advanced as it was hoped would
be the case at this time. 1t is now
doubtful whether the treaty will be
completed in time to submit to con-
gress when it assemblies next month.
The delay appears to have arisen
through the last change in the minis
try in Copenhagen. 49, - .-s.s
All the principal questions had been
adjusted when the entry into power Of
a new ministry, not we'll disposed to-
ward the treaty, made it necessary to
begin the work anew. While the me-
gotiations are proceeding, they have
not reached a point yet where it can
be predicted certainly that a treaty
will result. The issues do not touch
the price to be paid so much as the
conditions as to the future of the cit
izens Of the Danish West Indies,
sought to be imposed by Denmark.
The United States desires simple
treaty and one that will leave it at
perfect liberty to deal with the Islands
in the future without amy restriction
imposed by treaty.
Copenhagen, Nov. 12.-The premier,
Dr. Deuntzer, in an interview on the
negotiations for the sale of the Danish
West Indies, is quoted as saying that
the Washington and London dis
patches declaring that the islands
have been sold to the United States for
s4000,000. with the understanding
that the inhabitants are to be granted
citizenship and free trade, are all in
correct The negotiations are pro-
crossing, but the result cannot be def
| nitely predicted. The negotiations,
the premier said would be concluded
at Copenhagen, the treaty would be
signed at Washington and it would be
ratified by the United States senate
before it received the ratification Of
the Danish rigsdag.
