RIDES TIE RAPIDS.
Through Niagara Gorge I'm Safety
Great ThrOng Watches Voyage,

Niagara Falls, \. y, Oct. 14.-Peter
Nissen, of Chicago, made a successful
trip through the whirlpool rapids Sat
urday afternoon in his boat called the
Fool Killer" Thousands on the
bridges and river banks saw Nissen's
boat cross the river near the falls
about 2: Is o'clock. II ran to the Amer
lean side and did not again reappear
on the stream until $3.50 o'clock, when
L came out to midstream in tow of a
rowboat. Straight down the river the
two boats came until opposite the old
Maid of the Mist landing, when the
rowboat was brought to shore, leaving
Nissen and his boat to drift into the
rapids. Closer and closer the current
drew the boat to the rapids, and just
as it passed under the bridges, at 3:4o
o'clock, Nissen waved a farewell and
disappeared inside his boat, pulling the
hatch hard down. Two minutes later
the red smokestack Of the boat was
torn off by mighty breaker, and then
the boat tossed and rolled under the
influence Of the tumultuous waters Of
the rocky canyon. Time and again the
bright red bottom was in full view, but
the craft did not turn over. Three
minutes after his boat struck the pool
Nissen appeared in the open hatch.
He remained in sight only moment,
owing to the roughness Of the water,
but few minutes later he climbed out
on the deck and in that position rode
along the Canadian shore Of the pool
as his boat swung around in the cur
rent. As II approached the entrance
Nissen droppsd out Of sight and again
closed the hatch. As the boat neared
the entrance II was close to shore, and
Fred Preston swan out and caught it.

of health of Pottsville has ordered
all women to wear short dresses.
This action is based on the ground
that long dresses which sweep the

sultan Responsible.

London, Oct. 12.--After detailing
the history of the abduction of Miss
Stone, the Spectator remarks:
"Presldert Roosevelt and the Washing
ton cabinet maintain Justly that the sui
tan is responsible, as it is his misgovern-
ment which provokes and protects brigand-
age, and they intend TO demand reparation
from the porte. 1t will not be limited, We
imagine, to E250CO. The porte will be re-
quiTeG to punish authors of the out
rage; and as Turkey Is sure to shuttle, and
America is tired of being played with a
naval demonstration is quite on the cards.
The sultan will of course yield to the first
show of force"

Not Very RenssurinE.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE state de-
partment has heard again by cable
from United States Consul General
Dickinson and Secretary of Legation
Spencer Eddy, touching the progress
of the negotiations looking to the
release of Miss Stone. None of the
details was made public, however,
and all that can be gathered as to
the status of the case is that the
conditions are by no means as reas-
surfing as were expected Thursday.

Chief Donahue said that he would re-
quest the city and Mr.. Cudahy to with
draw the rewards which have been Of
fered for Groves arrest and convic-
ton. with the provision that Grove
surrender himself. He said that if
Grove gave himself up he would be
given all the advantage the law pro-
vided and would be afforded time and
every facility for securing such wit
nesses as his attorneys deemed neces-
sary. He said that the fight that the
attorneys of James Callahan, now held
in connection with the kidnapping, were
making for him did not anticipate the
return of Grove, and that Callahan
knew no more of Groves whereabouts
than anybody else.
Mr.. Edward A. Cudahy was asked
what action he would take with re-
lation to the suggestion of Pat
Grove. He said: 81 am opposed to
entering into any special negotiations
for the return of Grove. 1t is only
a matter of time when he will be ap-
pretended. However, / win with
draw the reward offered for his ar
rest and conviction"

ahy, provided he is not locked up until

~. J. Donahue, Chief of Police, Omaha,
Neb.-Dear Sir: Nearly a year has passed

lice and detectives to have made me a

you and the public"

Increanes La Peril.

London, Oct. 12.--"The United States
legation here" says dispatch from
Constantinople to the Daily Telegraph,
''has received information which it
withholds of some expected develop
ments in the Stone affair. On Tuesday
it was supposed an attempt would be
made to capture the band; but moth
ing has been heard since Monday, when
Mr.. Haskell reached Samakoff. He is
not provided with funds, but has been
empowered to arrange the lowest
terms. The attempts TO capture the
band have made the brigands Shy of fu-
ture traps, thus rendering negotia-
tions difficult. Such tactics are severe
ly criticised here. The brigands may,
in revenge, kill their captive. More
over, the fact that no money was pro-
duced on the first demand may cause
the brigands to mutilate Miss Stone as
a warning"

The letter then states that the chief
would not know him; that he weighs
200 pounds and is looking fine. He says
he has been in South Africa, fighting
with the Beers, and expresses his dis
gust with Great Britain and his SYM
pathy for the Beers. He closes the
main part of his letter by saying he
regrets that Mr.. Cudahy should sus-
pect him of kidnapping the boy, and hop
ing soon to receive a reply from the
chief, which he directs should be made
through a local paper. This part is
signed Pat Grove" but the signature
is partly erased and four pages of post
script added, in which Grove says if
his offer is not accepted he will return
to foreign country, from which he
will probably never return. He then
recites a few "reminiscences, discusses
the BOer war and its causes, and signs
the postscript with the name Pat
Grove"

hitting similar terms for Groves sur

Grove then takes the detective agen-
cies to task, defying them to attempt
his arrest, and continues:

want is justice, a fair trial by Il men,

Herod or any of his kind. Their God is

He then expresses confidence that
the county attorney and sheriff will
give him a fair trial, and says he has
known Gov. Savage since hewas bare
footed boy on the farm in Iowa, and
says the governor has identified him
at the banks in South Omaha when
Grove was in business there. The let
ter expresses regret that he has fallen
into i'll repute, and then lays down the
conditions of his surrender as follows:

New York, Oct. 30.-Justlce Mac
Lean in the supreme court has grant
ed certificate Of reasonable doubt In
the case of John Most, editor Of the
Freiheit, an anarchist paper, in order
to stay his sentence OF IL months i'm

article entitled Murder VS.. Murder, ;"
which appeared on the day Of Presi-

Justice MacLean says the only proof
to support the judgment is that Most
purloined an article expressing certain
sentiments, wri ten by another half a
century ago and published it as his
own sin paper profess dly of some
circulation, but whi b circulation is
shown by the sale of but a single copy
that was purchased by the police
probably for the purpose of prosecu-
tion He further says that it may
be doubted reasonably whether the
judgment even with toat support,
