WANTS STATE REPRESENTED.
Gov Rogers Favors Washington Exhibit At
St. Louis In 1908.

Olympia, Oct. 1.-THE following has
been given out at the governors office:
1.-THE last legislature having made no
provision for the great St. Louis EXPOSE
ton, to be held in 1903, it is extremely
important that preparations OF some kind
be set on foot throughout the state of
Washington whereby the state may be
creditably represented at what is UNI
doubleday to be one of the greatest OPP
portunities afforded for number of
years to come for setting before the peo-
pie of the United States the vast re-
sources of the state of Washington.
"Gov. Rogers is of opinion that this
matter should be taken up at once by
the different chambers of commerce and
boards of trade in all the larger towns
throughout the state. If the different
chambers will each name the member
they desire to assist in this matter the
governor will appoint from them COM
mission. This commission can do much
toward laying the foundation for the
magnificent exhibit which this state is
capable of making. Unless something
of this character is undertaken unoffici-
ally, the shortness of time elapsing after
the next session of the legislature before
the holding Of the exposition will pre-.
vent proper exhibit. 1t will be under
stood that members of this commission
must serve without pay from the state,
no appropriation by the legislature hav-
ing been made"

GROVE WOULD SURRENDER.
All He StipuIatss Is That the Reward Shall Be
Withdrawn.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 14.-ChiCf OF Police
Donahue has received from Patrick Grove
through friend of the latter, an offer
to surrender himself and stand trial in
the courts if the reward of $685. hang
ing over his head for the alleged kidnap-
ing OF Edward Cudahy, jr., is withdrawn.
Chief Donahue did not accept the prop
osition, but made a counter offer to waive
the reward himself, saying nobody else
could secure it. The chief says Grove is
tired of being hunted, and is willing to
take chances of trial If the reward is
withdrawn, but expresses the fear that
manufactured testimony would convict
him if the reward were allowed to stand.
He says Grove is less than 500 miles from
Omaha, and is not with his relatives.
Edward A. Cudahy, ST., was seen by a
representative of the Associated Press
and asked if the reward for Grove would
be withdrawn. In reply he said: Yes,
we will do anything to secure Grove.
This is the first | have heard OF Grove,
but presume this proposition is bona
tide. l still believe Grove was one of
the abductors of my son, but if he sur
renders he shall have fair trial, and If
he gives himself up under the circum-
stances named, the reward will be with
drawn. l have not heard from Grove
directly or indirectly myself, but Chief
Donahue has the matter in hand and
will act in any manner that will secure
the presence OF Grove"

Former Filipino Leader RetIcent- Prefers
to Remain Prisoner.

Manila, Oct. 1.-THE party of senators
and representatives that have been visit
ing the Philippine Islands left yesterday
for home on board the United States
transport Sherman. Before leaving the
members of the party had an interview
with Aguinaldo, who, however, was
reticent. He said the original outbreak
of hostilities was surprise to him and
that his efforts to maintain the truce
were unavailing.
Aguinaldo has written to lawyer who
is trying to obtain writ of habeas cor
pus in his behalf, Directing to the course
taken by the lawyer, saying that he
preferred to remain prisoner while
there was one compatriot languishing in
Jail suffering from the Filopino cause,
and an infinity of Filipinos are deprived
of the liberty which they are anxious to
obtain
The civil and military authorities are
having Sixto Lopez closely watched at
Hongkong, as they consider his arrival
there to be y source of danger.
The Philippine commission has passed
an act prohibiting any suspect from
landing unless he takes the oath Of allie
glance, the penalty for breaking it being
two years for perjury.

CLEW TO TRAIN ROBBERS.
TeIItaIe Bank Note Presented in St. Louis May
Lead to Their Apprehension.

st. Louis, Oct. IA $40 treasury
note was received through window at
the postoffice Saturday in payment for
stamps, purporting to be issued by the
National Bank of Helena, Mont, but
containing signatures which are not
those of the president and cashier OF the
bank. The note is thought to be one
from a package containing *50, 600 which
disappeared from United States
Express Company's car between Indian-
apolis and st. Louis within the last two
weeks. Secret service men and detec-
tives are working on the case, and the
appearance of the $40 note in St. Louis
leads them to believe that the person
who got the package is here.
The subtreasury here was notified of
the robbery two weeks ago. Similar
notification was sent to every sub
treasury in the country, and careful
watch has been kept for trace Of the
missing notes. The note passed here
bears the signatures of Thomas B. Hill,
president, and John r. Smith, cashier.
The president Of the Helena bank is T.
A. NARROW, and A. l.. Smith is cashier.

ON THE ROCKS.
Steamer Hating Goes Ashore In Fos-Aeel.
dent Occurred Near Vancouver.

Vancouver, B. c., Oct. 13.-1n dense
fog, but in the calmest of seas, SO that
there was no loss of life, the steamer
Hating went ashore opposite Texada
Island, in the island dotted northern
section of the Gulf of Georgia, at 2:3O
O'Clock Saturday afternoon. TIE news
reached Vancouver late this afternoon,
a volunteer boats crew, with Pilot Tom
Gums in charge, having come here for
assistance.
Since the loss of the Islander the Hat
ing has been the flagship of the Canadian
Pacific fleet in the north. She made the
round trip to Skagway regularly every
week. Coming down she passed Seymour
narrows early on Saturday, and met a
fog bank at noon that caused Captain
Gosse to run her for the rest OF the time
at half speed, and to take charge OF her
on the bridge himself.
The steamer ran for two hours through
the fog without mishap. She was still
proceeding at a speed Of about ten knots
when she struck on rock. The engines
were Immediately reversed, but the
steamer did not bulge, and remained
fast She struck at half flood tide, and
soon after her stern sank so that the after
rail was in eight or ten feet of water
when the tide came in.
The passengers, of course, Immediately
rushed on deck when the shock of the
strike was felt. The sea was calm and
the assuring words of the captain had
the effect Of quieting the passengers.
They returned to the cabins, secured
their personal belongings and gold and
were conveyed to shore.
Upon investigation it was found that
the steamer was ashore in Tucker hay,
Jarvis inlet, small, rocky islet lying to
the northeast of Lasquette, at the
entrance of Sabine strait. The place is
exactly forty-nine miles from Vancouver.
The work of landing the passengers
on. Lasquette island took an hour. The
fog hampered the movements of the
boats, for it was impossible to detect
anything more than five yards away.
About 1900, 900 worth of gold aboard the
vessel was all removed, and all baggage
was handed to the shore. BY this time
the tide came into the after part of the
vessel and it was expected that she
would be pretty well under water when
the tide came in. She was stuck fast,
however, and is thought to be in no
danger of slipping off by the rising water.

BANDITS HAVE DISSOLVED.
They Still Keep Miss Stone Under Strict Sur
VIGILANCE.

Sofia, Oct. 16.-Although the time fix
ed by this brigands who abducted Miss
Ellen NJ. Stone for the payment of the
ransom demanded expired week ago no
one has appeared at Samakov to claim
the money or to announce the fate Of the
captive. 1t is now learned that the BAN
dts have dissolved, but Miss Stone is
kept under surveillance at some distance
from the frontier. This is due to snow
and cold weather rendering the noun
tains uninhabitable. The efforts of the
police to arrest Sarakoff, formerly presi-
dent of the Macedonian committee, who
is suspected OF completely in the kidnap-
ing, are still unavailing. Tho failure is
due to the sympathy Of the inhabitants
and local authorities.

GOES OVER THREE YEARS.
Marriage and Divorce Canon Shslvsd by the
Episcopal Deputies.

San Francisco, Oct. l6.-The trouble
some question Of marriage and divorce
was set at rest for another three years
today by the action of the house OF dep
uties of the triennial episcopal conven-
ton in rejecting both of the proposed
canons on the subject, which were passed
by the house of bishops. The greatest
fight of the convention has been over
section of canon SO, virtually forbidding
the remarriage Of a divorced person bv q
priest Of the church. This had passed
the house of bishops and had been adopt
ed by q yea and nay vote in committee
of the whole of the house Of deputies.
When the committee rose and reported
its work to the house another and decis-
i've vote was taken, not only on the trou-
blesome fourth section, but on the entire
canon, which was rejected as a whole.
Canon 81, which provides for the disci-
plining of persons marrying again after
being divorced, met with similar fate.

Talk Of Brinsins Pressure.

New York, Oct. 1S.-The Brussels cor
respondent of the Times says a Dutch
committee has just been formed for the
purpose of bringing pressure to bear on
Great Britain by paralyzing her shipping
trade, and in this way inducing her to
restore independence to the Beers.
The proposal seems to have been put
forward in good faith and received a GER
tain amount Of encouragement in the
Dutch and Belgian press. The promot.
ers belong to the laboring classes.
The idea is to issue notices to the dock
laborers of Belgium, France and Holland
calling upon them to refuse to work for
British ships. The merchants are also
to be asked not to ship freight by British
vessels.

FROM NINE. TSiLkA.
Letter Received Urging That Military Pursuit Be
Stopped Captives will Be Killed.

Sofia, Oct. 16.-A letter from Nine.
Tsilka, the woman who was kidnapped
with Miss Stone. says that she and Miss
Stone are concealed in secluded cave
difficult of access.
Nine. Tsilka urges that military pur-
suit be stopped, as their captors will kill
the prisoners if the pursuit becomes
dangerous, and that ransom is the only
thing that will secure the captives'
release.
At Samakoff, the place designated by
the brigands for depositing the ransom
money, no one has appeared to claim it
yet, or to tell of the kidnapped women.
