sented and referred.
Delegate O'Flaherty presented a resolu-
ton providing for the election of school
trustees by the people; the election of SUI
perintendent by popular vote or by district
trustees and adding to the present board
OF neutrality-suspicious., attorney general

the addition of a superintendent of a
school from county or city in one of each
OF the five grand divisions of the state.
The question of quadrennial or biennial
sessions will be finally considered on Thurs
day in committee of the whole.
The session today was devoted to a dis
cussion of the report of the legislative
committee on the subject of Incorporation
of religious organizations and right to

this city on the 10Th instant and will re-
main here during the following week. Mr.
Charles Moore, clerk of the Senate District

cerned In the government and development

before these various officials an outline of
plans in relation to work that each of

come to an agreement in the case of any
feature of their plan that may be met with
objections, II any objections should be de-
Veloped- The commission feels that its
general plan Is quite thoroughly developed
now, and they have given it such careful
attention that they do not anticipate any
important opposition to 1t. The plan con-
templates connection for all the parks of
the District into one splendid system to-
gether with the purchase of additional land
to round out the boundaries of existing
parks, and to provide additional park
spaces in portions of the city where they
are especially needed.
The commission expects to close it's work
oy December 1, so to be ready to SUBJ

HELD AS PRISONERS
Non-Union Tin Plate Workers Be-
sieged by Strikers.
POLICE POWERLESS TO PREVENT
Outcome Of Trouble at Monon-
gaheIa Plant in Pittsburg.
EXCITEMENT OVER AFFAIR

PITTSBURG, Pa October 1.-THE strike
breakers employed in the Monongahela tin
plate plant, South 10Th street, are pris-
oners today. The strikers refuse to let
them come out, and the police seem to be
powerless.
The working week in the plant closed to-
day at II o'clock and the men were paid
off a few days ago the management an
nounced that the hotel addition to the
plant would be abandoned after today and
that the men would be Quartered on Ferry
street in a boarding house there.
About 11.45 O'Clock crowd of the break
ers left the plant and walked up 18th street
TO Carson street to take car for the city.
The strikers pickets were on the outlook
and word was sent to the strikers, who
were meeting in a hall nearby, of the
men leaving the plant. In few minutes
over 200 men had gathered about the strik-
ers and over twice that many spectators
gathered about the men, and a crowd OF
police rushed to the scene.
workmen Driven Back.
The strikers refused to allow the cars to
stop. and the workmen, seeing that things
were getting warm, went back to the plant,
guarded by the police.
1t is thought the strikers will try to
keep them prisoners in the plant until the
mana cement gets sufficient police protec-
tfon to take the men to their new boarding
house
The scene this morning was one of the
greatest excitement. For a time it looked
as though matters would result seriously,
but the arrival of the police tended to curb
the strikers anger.
AT pm. the men were still prisoners.
but there had been no outbreak.

BANDITS MOVE BASE
Miss Stones Abductors Evade the
Pursuing Troops.
THEY QUIT GUETEPE MOUNTAIN
Are Now in Hiding on Turko-
Bulgarian Frontier.
ROTEST AT SOFI A

CONSTANTINOPLE, October 12.-Since
the brigands who abducted Miss Stone were
located on the mountain of Gultepe the ap-
proach of the troops induced them to
change their retreat. They are now hiding
on the Turko-Bulgarian frontier, ready to
cross to either side, as circumstances de-
mand.
The decision to suspend the movements
of the troops was partially due to the diff
culties of operating in the mountainous
country and partly owing to fear that a
farther advance might endanger the life of
Miss Stone, hence the American desire to
try and negotiate for the payment of a
ransom 1t is hoped this will result in the
release of Miss Stone in few days.
The officials of the United States lega-
tion are much gratified at the Russian ac-
tion in the matter. The Russian ambassa-
dor l. A. Zinovieff, is supporting the Amer
lean demands and the steps taken by the
secretary of the United States legation,
Spencer Eddy, in every way possible.
bulgarian Officials Protest.
SOFIA, Bulgaria, October IAN official
communication, which has just been issued
here, indignantly protests against the as
sertion that the Bulgarian government has
been conspiring with the Macedonian COM
mittee in regard to the abduction of Miss
Ellen NJ. Stone, the American missionary.
The note points out that, while nothing is
positively known of the composition of the
brigand band, it was undoubtedly formed
in Turkey. Miss Stone was captured near
Mehomia, short distance from a Turkish
post.

scribed by President Roosevelt in respect

Kinley will expire tomorrow, and the flags

mo, will be once more displayed at full
mast, beginning Monday morning. With

official correspondence will be discontinued
in all the executive departments after to-
day. By a special order issued by the Sec
retary of State, the diplomatic and consular
ofhcers of the United States, as well as the
officers of the State Department, will con-
tinue the usual symbols of public mourning
for thirty days longer.

BONA-FIDE CIRCULATION,

A reference to the statement be-
low will show that the circulation
sworn to is a bona-fide one.
1t is easily possible for a news
paper with an elastic conscience to
swell its legitimate circulation enor-
mously. in order to deceive adver-
tisers, by sending out thousands of
papers to newsstands which are re-
turnable, and which are. in fact, re-
turned. but nevertheless are in
cluded in what purports to be an
honest statement Of circulation.
Intelligent advertisers. however,
judge by results. and bogus circula-
tions don't give them
The family circulation of The Star
Is many thousands in excess Of any
other Washington paper.

The Interior Department has forwarded
to the War Department request for
troops to assist Lieutenant Colonel Rand
lett agent of the Kiowa Indians, in Okla
homa, in ejecting, a number of people who
have squatted on lands belonging to the

tied upon by Indians and had refused to
leave when ordered to do so by Agent Rand
lett. The troops doubtless will be sent from
Fort Sill. No trouble is expected.

MATTER OF TRANSFERS.
Receiver of City and Suburban Road
Has Taken No Action

1t was stated today at the Office of Mr.
McDermott. who was yesterday. upon the
application Of the judgment creditors of
the City and Suburban Railroad Company,
appointed by the court receiver Of the road,
that no action had been taken in regard to
the system Of transfers.
In the hearing by the court yesterday
Mr.. McKenney, the counsel Of the judg-
ment creditors. is reported to have said
that It was just as much the desire of the
present management to get away from the
free transfer system as it is Of the minor
ity stockholders, but it seemed this could
not be done under the law. This matter,
he declared. would be brought into court
and tested when the road is in the hands
of receiver. 1t had been decided, he add
ed, that this is the best way to reach that
question,
