United States Consul General Dickin-

the American mission church, has de-
manded an official inquiry. Great brutal
ity exists in the district between Banista
and the frontier. Turkish officials have
arrested over 100 persons of Bulgarian
nationality and subjected them to torture
in order to wiring from them information
as to Miss Stones whereabouts. Several
of them died under the torture.
''The Bulgarian authorities, likewise
worried over the affair, are continually

" K EN- representing all the mining
Mlt counties in California, from
H " III Siskiyou to San Diego, rose to
- - their feet in Golden Gate Hall
yesterday at the convention of
the California Miners Association and
stood silently a moment in testimony of
their respect to the memory of William
Mckinley, late President of the United
States. A special committee had been
appointed to draft suitable resolutions
President Voorhies, presiding over the
deliberations of the convention, an
nounced that the committee was ready
to report. Professor Christy of the min
ing department of the University of Cali
fornia, took the center of the stage and
read, solemnly and slowly, the resolu-
tions in which the death Of the nations
chief was deplored.
"All in favor of the adoption of these
resolutions" said President voorhies,
will please rise"
The scene was impressive. The entire
hall had been patriotically decorated
with the national colors. From galleries
depended gay festoons Of bunting, and
the shields of the several counties Of the
State cleaned at intervals along the dra-
peries, above which rose small American
flags. Picks and shovels told of the ma
ture Of the convention. Gay banrerets
of blue, with golden fringes, defined the
location Of the numerous delegations
from the mining counties. Amid the ar
ray of bannerets and under the masses
of bunting and the insignia Of their
craft the miners rose to their feet. Here
and there the light colored gowns of
ladies made patch Of color in relief.
Only the day before the Nestor of the
convention, ]. H. Neff, had repeated to
the convention the famous message that
Abraham Lincoln told Schuyler ColfaA to
bring to the coast. "Tell the miners of
California"-so ran the words-"that the
country owes a debt of gratitude to
them" With that message still fresh in
mind the California miners paid respect
to the memory of Mckinley.
1.-The resolutions" said President Voor-
hies, not without a show of emotion, ''are
unanimously adopted"
Deplore Presidents Death.
The text of the committee report is as
follows:
Resolved By the California State Miners AS
sociation, that we mourn in William Mckinley

BULLER HAS LEFT
THE ARMY OF BRITAIN
Indiscreet Speech of the General the
Immediate Cause of His



LONDON, Oct 22.-The War Ohce an
nounces that after consideration of all
the circumstances Of General Buffers
speech of October 10 and the explanations
thereof furnished by General Butler, he
has been relieved of his command and
placed on half pay. The King has op-
proved the appointment of General
French to succeed Butler as commander
Of the First Army Corps, the appointment
to become effective when French's SER
vices are no longer required in South At
rica. Pending his return. General Hid
yard will assume command.
General Buffers suppression was not
unexpected, but the manner of it has
caused a sensation. 1t is understood that
the Government endeavored to break the
fall by giving him the option of resigning,
but that Butler declined to give way. The
morning papers all express sympathy for
the unfortunate ending of a brilliant
career. but they are unanimous that no
other course was open after his indiscreet
speech, and they express the greatest ap-
proval of the selection Of General French
to succeed him.
The Daily Chronicle and the Daily News
attack the Government for weakness and
lack of courage in ever appointing Cen
eraI Butler to the command of an army
corps.
The Times, confirming the report that
General Butler preferred dismissal to
resignation, expresses astonishment at
his amazing defects of judgment and
sense of military discipline" and says it
homes the change is the beginning of an
era of real army reform.

Ralston added that it had been ascer-

harm. The committee had visited the

that he would decline to accept the
money in pursuance of the carrying out
of the OF tion. The money had been raised
and was ready for O'Brien before the ex-
piration Of the option. The United States
had already taken cognizance Of O'Brien's
attitude by bringing suit in the United

make the option good. This information

There are some facts that have not been

peculiarities of an episode that probably

Father Cruel to His Child.

Charles Grady, white man, who lives
in Brooklyn, Raleigh's northwestern sub
urb, was yesterday bound over by JUS
tice of the Peace Nichols for trial at the
next term of the criminal court for cruelty
to his little nine year old boy The boy
is the son Of Gradys first wife, and the
evidence showed that since marrying the
second time he has frequently mercilessly
beaten the child with a rope and at
times tied him up or locked him in the
house alone for hours without food or
water. The evidence in the case was
such that the magistrate bound Grady
over to court under $50 bond to answer
the charge of cruelty to his child, then
required him to give another $50 bond
to keep the peace for six months as a
bad spirit was shown by him towards the
