tend; that they would. be protected, and
that the body would be given decent
burial CZolgosZ was obdurate, however,
and Collins finally told him that II there
was a well-grounded suspicion as to the
motive in claiming the body he would re-
fuse to surrender it, law or no law.
Czolgosz then seemed inclined to- give in
and went with the superintendent to the
office of Warden Meade, where a paper
relinquishing all claim upon the body was
drawn up.
while it was being prepared Collins
called up the Chief fof Police of CleNeland
and asked him to discuss the matter with
Czolgosz Sr. Collins asked that the ques,,
ton be fairly stated to the father, ana
that if he agreed telegram of relinquiSh-
IneIit be signed by him and sent at once
The Cleveland police expressed the nope
that the body would never be sent to that
city.
Czofgosz the instrument relinquishfng all
claim to the body he refused to sign it un-
til he had an opportunity to advise with
Waldeck Thomas Bandowsk, his brother
in-laW. who was the leader in the plan to
secure the body. He promised final an
swers at o'clock, when he was to call
with Bandowskl for a final visit to the
condemned man.
= Collins agreed to send for him, but
would not let the brother leave the prison.
FINALLY he was at 6; o'clock informed that
tha people at the Buffalo -crematory would
not accept the body, and Superintendent
Collins at once pointed out to him that he
would have the body on his hands. At a
few minutes past 6 o'clock he agreed to
sign and 1t was decldeq TO Dury the DOdy
in the prison.
The agreement signed prohibits any por-
ton. of the body being removed from the
prison, and this will be strictly enforced.

MONTANA MINES
ARE IN DEMAND
Business Men Of Helena
Organize to Protect
Investors.
Special Dispatch to The 'call.

HELENA, Mont, Oct. 25.-The business
men Of Helena have set an example that
might well be followed by the residents
of all mining towns who have the well
fare of their locality at heart. In future
every mining company that claims Hell
ena as its home will be thoroughly inves-
tigated, and, if it is found to have any
wildcat characteristics, it will be un-
sparingly condemned through the me-
dunn of the press, and unsuspiclous in
vestors will be warned away.
The necessity of this move. has been
made apparent from the fact that,
throughout the East, a large number of
these irresponsible mushroom companies
have been formed, without iaa foundation
in fact for their eXtravagant claims of
fortunes that await those who buy their
stock The fact that decided interest
is being taken in the mineral district
round about Helena has caused numbers
of these INSCRIPTIONS concerns to claim
a location in this city.
Postmaster A. p. Fisk states that he
continually receives letters from all parts
of the East from people asking the Post
master IT they can place confidence in
such and such a company. He has re-
peatedly gone to the county records, only
TO find that such companies never exist
ed, except in the imaginations of their
putative officers. Fisk has SO informed
all who have applied to MIN for informa-
ton
The Business Mems Association has
now taken the matter in hand. The COM
mittee on mining will henceforth have
this as one of its especial duties
The reported richness of the mineral
resources of this region is not a fable by
any means Never yet has there been a
systematic effort to develop single
prospect far enough to really determine
what there may be in it. The Business
Mems Association is considering the pro-
ject of organizing gigantic stock COM
pany to Systematically develop one after
another, the many prospects south of the
city, which have been begun and then
abandoned for lack of funds, 1t is be
lieved that Helena will yet be the f1nan-
! cial and mining center of the State OF

NAVAL BOARD ON CONSTRUCTION
TO SUBMIT PLANS TO CONGRESS
FOR ENLARGEMENT OF THE NAVY.
Officials Will Recommend the Immediate Building
ofFour First-CIaSs BattIeships Four High-Speed
Cruisers and Thirty Gunboats of Latest Design
Special Dispatch to The Call.

Some Of the members Of the board think
the programme considered to-day too ex-
tensive, insisting that the shipbutldtng ca
pacity of the country cannot acconmo-
date so many new vessels. Other mem
bers hold that as Congress adopted no
authorization of additional armorclads at
Bile to ask that a programme be adopted
which shall make provision for the SHIPS
that should have been laid down during
the present year, as well as those Wh1ch
in the usual course would be provided Tor
In the law to be passed during the COM
ing session.
No naval officer has lost sight Of the
action taken by Germany to expedite the
completion of it's programme of ship con-
Struction, and there is reason to believe
that this matter will enter into the con-
sideratiOn of the Board on Construction.
In conversation to-day with Represen-
tative Fitzgerald, who represents the
Brooklyn Navy Yard district, and Repre-
sentative Rupert of New York City, Pres
ident Roosevelt declined to make any rec
concentrations for the construction of the
warships in navy yards as suggested by
the Brooklyn Congressman. on the ground
that such recommendation should prop
erly come through the Navy Department.
He said the subject had been discussed
eraI previous occasions and the latter has
invariably held that the construction OF
new warships can be accomplished cheap
er and to better advantage to the Govern
ment at private shipyards

CALL BUREAU. 1406 G STREET, N.
W., WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S-What will
be probably the most comprehensive pro-
gramme ever submitted by the board OF
naval officers to the Navy Department
for transmission to Congress will be sub
mitted this week to Secretary Long or
the Board on Construction. The pro-
gramme urged to-day by the members OF
the board for adoption included: Four
first class battleships of 5000 tons dis
placement, carrying the heaviest arma-
ment and protected by the thickest armor
possible on such displacement; four arm
ored cruisers of IA 900 tons displacement,
of high speed, carrying the heaviest arm
ament and the thickeSt armOr cOmpati-
Bile with displacement and speed; eight
cen gunboats for service in South Amer
lea and the Philippines of more than 200
tons displacement; twelve gunboats of
few hundred tons displacement each, for
service in the Philippines. In addition, 1t
is the purpose of the board to recommend
the construction of auxiliary ships, in
Guiding colliers, training ships and an en-
gineering repairing vessel. No torpedo
boats or submarine-boats have been sug-
gested for incorporation in the pro-
granme, and 1t is extremely doubtful II
any construction of these types will be
considered. 1t is the intention OF the
board to hold another meeting on We'd
nesday, when there will be renewal Of
the discussion relative to the character
istics of the programme to be submitted.

UPLAND TOWNS
GET A WETTING
Almost Six Inches Of
Rain Descends at
Redding.

SACRAMENTO. Oct. 2S.-The- rainfall
for the forty-eight hours ending at
o'clock this morning was general through
out the Sacramento Valley and the foot
hills section. The fall in this city amount
ed to nearly half an inch. In Redding,
at the head of the valley, it amounted to
nearly six inches, and the downpour at
Red Bluff was not far behind.
The rain will be of great benefit to the
farming lands In some sections of the
country, on the river islands, the bean
crop has not been thrashed. 1t is not
believed, however, that the storm just
ended will do any damage. The north
wind will soon dry the crop of beans, so
that the threshers may be set to running
again. The fruit shipping season is about
ended, the bulk of the shipments to the
East consisting of apples, grapes and
pears. ThirJy-two carloads were shipped
from Sacramento this morning
CORNING, Oct. 2S.-The first heavy
rainstorm of the season visited this place
last night. About an inch of moisture
fell. This viii sprout the summer failow
grain and enable farmers to prepare their
fields for winter planting. Beets and
fruits are already gathered so that no
damage will result. The rain came just
when needed
STOCKTON. Oct. 2s.4There was quite
a heavy rainfall early this morning, but
the clouds have broken and to all appear
ances the storm is over, though there is
a brisk wind from the west What little
hay that is not yet under cover may be
damaged very slightly and beans may suf-
fer little. 1t is doubtful, however, if
any damage worth mentioning has result
ed. Since 10 o'clock yesterday morning
Al of an inch Of rain has fallen.
SAN JOSE, Oct. 2S.-The heaviest rain
fall of the season came last night. the
sky clearing during the forenoon. The
total for the storm was /. IL inches, for the
season L66 inches. No damage has re-
suited as the croDs are all stored.
SANTA ANA, Oct. 2S.-After raining in
termittently for thirty hours the weather
has cleared in this vicinity. The total
precipitation for the storm was 1.e5 inches.
Crops. especially celery, have been great
" benefited.
WOODLAND. Oct. 2s.-There was an
other heavy shower shortly before day
light this morning and the rainfall for
the season now aggregates 2.2S inches.
This practically puts an end TO Eastern
grape shipments.
MILTON. Oct 2S.-One and ffty-six-

the storm of the past two days The pre-
cipitation was timely and will prove ben
efctal.

NEGOTIATIONS
WITH BANDITS
Encouraging News Is
Received at State
Department.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CALL BUREAU, 14O6 G. STREET, N.
w. WASHINGTON, Oct. 2s.-Negotia-
tions for the liberation of Miss Stone, the
American missionary held prisoner by
Bulgarian brigands, have at last been
opened with her captors. This was the
encouraging news received by the State
Department to-day from Mr.. Eddy, Sec
retary of the American Legation at Con-
stantinople. Eddy reported the receipt
of a. communication setting forth the
terms upon which the woman would be
given freedom. The proposal was not
made public by the State Department, but
it is said that there is no abatement in
the demand of the abductors.
Unfortunately, there has not been COL
lected more than s65,0O0 toward the ram
som, and the United States has distinctly
announced that, it cannot add a cent to
that sum. The negotiations which will
be conducted will include counter pro-
posal, which will be made either through
Mr.. Eddy or through the missionaries,
who have been vainly searching for
traces of the captive. The brigands have
doubtless been apprised of the fact that
the friends of Miss Stone are unable to
raise the sum of $4,000, originally de-
manded, and it is hoped they will now
accept less.
The exact whereabouts of the band
which has possession of Miss Stone is
not known to the State Department. 1t
the information is withheld because. the
department does not wish the Turkish or
Bulgarian Government to dispatch troops
with the result that the latter would
probably flee to another hiding place and
be more chary of reopening negotiations
1t is understood that the Russian Gov
ernment is cooperating with the United
States in the negotiatio
SOFIA, Bulgaria, Oct. 2S.-Sf4 young
Bulgarians have banded themselves to
search for Miss Stone, the American
missionary, and her companion, Nine.
Tsilka, and with the consent of the Bull
garian authorities have left Samakoy for
Mehomia with this object in view
The absence of news about Miss Stone
has led to. a revival of the report that
she has already been killed and the
brigands have dispersed.

UNITED STATES MARINE
CORPS PROVES EFFECTIVE
General Haywood Recommends That
the Commandant Rank as
Major General

WASHINGTON, Oct 2S-In his an
nual report upon the condition and SER
vices of the United States Marine Corps
for the past year, Brigadier General
Charles Haywood renews a. former rec
ommendation that Congress shall make
the rank of the commandant of the Ma
rine Corps that of major general, This
recommendation, it is stated, is embar-
rassing to the General, inasmuch as such
action would result in his own promotion,
but he points out that the present author
lied strength of the corps, 6062 men
should entitle the commandart to the rank
of major general, as the army regula-
tiona provide that the appropriate COM
mand for a major general is four regi-
ments and 1890 men. General Haywood
strongly recommends that the law pro-
viding that officers of the navy who
served with honor during the civil war
may retire with the next higher rank be
extended to the Marine Corps.
The total number of casualties In the
enlisted force of the corps during the
past year caused by discharges, deser-
tions, deaths and retirements was 280O
In conclusion General Haywood says =,
81 am pleased to state that the corps
has been able to meet promptly and sat
isfactorily the many and varied demands
which have been made upon it cllrine
the year, and feel justified in stating thai
it has maintained it's high reputation for
efficiency.

WHITES AND ELEVEN NEGROES
Trouble Occurs at Camp Meeting When Constable
Attempts to Arrest CoIored Man for Con-
Quoting RefTeshment Booth Without License

ANTE CITY, La, Oct. 2S.-Three
white men and eleven negroes have been
killed in d race riot in Washington Par
fish. The first news OF the riot was
brought here to-day by Cornelius Nixon.
who left Franklinton this morning. He
stated that white men rode into Frank
linton at o'clock this morning seeking
help, saying that the negroes We're up in
arms and threatening to eNterminate the
whites.
The scene of the trouble is at or near
week for assaulting a white woman. This
was not the cause. however, of the muf-
der yesterday. in which three white men
and eleven negroes were killed and SeN-
eral were wounded.
Nixon talked with many men from the
scene. and they said more and wor5e
trouble was expected to-day. as arm
men We're fOcking 10 the scene, and 1t is
reported that the blacks were equally ac-
tive in preparing for battle.
P B. Carter arrived from Franklinton
q little after dark tonight and said that
the situation was terrible and that more
trouble was feared. He said Joe Searies
and Charles Elliott and another white
man, whose name he did not know, were
dead; that Z. H. Thompson. white
man, was wounded. and that eleven ne
groes were dead. His information was up
to last night, and was obtained from per-
sons who went to Franklinton for help

TOWER TO COMMAND
THE STRAITS OF FUCA
American Government Adding to Its
Fortifications on Point
Wilson

TACOMA, Oct. 2S.-Government experts
are experimenting the construction of a
coming tower on one of the commanding
eminences of Fort Worden, on Point Will
son, near Port Townsend, overlooking q
long stretch of the Straits of Juan de
Fuca- The tower is provided with a SyS-
tenn of mirrors which reflect on a pre-
pared chart the exact position of any yes
sci entering the straits. These waters are
divided on the charts into small squares
the necessary elevation for the gunwOrk
on any square being prepared in advance.
In the event of invasion the observer sim
ply communicates with the 'man behind
the guns the information that the inva-
der is in a certain square. From this in
formation the bombardment is at once
commenced with great prospects for sink
ing the incoming vessel
As is the case with the British defenses
at ESquimalt, this coming tower will he
placed in such a position as to be invfs-
ible from the straits and consequently out
of reach of an enemy'S guns. Other con-
ming towers will be erected at Admiralty

with several white men, when the negro
Lott rushed out and fired point blank into
the crowd, killing Joe Seals and Charles
Elliott. The whites returned the fire and
kllIed Lott. Then a negro preacher
with a gun in hand attempting to shoot,
and was killed. His daughter was also
killed, though it is said she was accident
ally shot. In the shooting which followed
another white man was killed, L. H.
Thompson wounded and seven or eight
negroes killed. The shooting had no direct
connection with the burning of the negro
Morris in that section last week, but Ii is
undoubtedly the sequel to that tragic
event. Since that time il is said that the
negroes nave been holding nightly meet
lngS, preparing to attack the whites.
BalItown is about twenty-five miles from
