IS AIMED AT ABUSES.
POSfmaster-GeneraI smith Explains
the Intent of the Second
Class Matter ride

Washington, Oct. 6.-Postmaster-
General Charles Emory Smith, in a
letter written to a magazine publish
er who requested a reconsideration
of the order excluding return copies
from the pound postage rate, says
that the force of the departments
order falls on the illegitimate publ
cations which have grown up outside
of the law. He says that the publish
er addressed, with a single exception,
is the only publisher who has special
ly addressed him on this point. BY
lax practice, says the postmaster
general, news agents have been al
lowed what is expressly denied to the
publishers themselves, viz: having un-
sold or return copies sent back to
them at the cent-a-pound rate, but It
is in plain contravention of the terms
and intent of the law. The depart
ment, he says, is trying to execute
the Law faithfully and thus cut off
some fragrant abuses which have
loosely grown up.

Phoenix, Ariz., Gov. 6.-Gov. Muir
ply has issued a semi-official procla-
nation, calling d statehood conven-
ton to convene in Phoenix on Octo-
Der 90. The Phoenix board of trade
decided to appropriate funds to COW
er all the expenses of delegates to the
conference. Representation will be
had from each county of the terri
tory, and a strong effort will be made
to disregard political faith or bust
ness calling in making up the dele
cations. The governor, in his procla-
nation, states his belief that concert
ed action OF the part of the citizens
will induce the Fifty-seventh con-
gress, during the coming winter, to
pass an enabling act, but it is hinteAl
that influential corporations will n0t
lend assistance.

MISSOURI AT WORLDS FAIR.
Her State Building VIII Occupy Q
Prominent Position Near Cow
rnmen and Art Ediices.


ST. Louis, Oct. 3.-Missouri's group
OF state buildings will crown an emf
hence on a site of 20 acres, located
about 400 feet south of the United
States government building. The
structure will cost 100000. Isaac S.
Taylor, chief of the architectural
commission for the exposition, will
act in the capacity of advisory archi-
tect to the state commission and may
design the principal building.
This is the official announcement of
NJ. t. Davis, president of the state
commission. The details of the plan
have been placed in the hands of Pres
ident Davis and Commissioner Parker,
of st. Louis, who haze been empow-
cred by the commission to employ
two architects to design the buildings.
"The preliminary work of the COM
mission has bee accomplished" said
President Davis. 1.-THE general idea
for the Missouri display is the three
structure plan, the central building to
be permanent. The wings will be
constructed of staff, so that they
may be removed after the life of the
CAPOoANAOI mas IN I SOoAS&s LIN
is under consideration another scheme
for a state building standing alone
and an exhibit building on our site.
The solitary state building will be
something entirely original in expo
sition architecture, if we see u w a
lear to forsaking the tri-building
plan.
'The former plan may cost more
money than we are disposed to put
into architecture. In that event we
might have to reluctantly relinquish
the idea and erect the three buildings,
which is a beautiful scheme in itself.
All of these piles would be connected
by arcades or colonnades somewhat
after the design of the art building,
We have expressed a preference for a
site that is far enough away from
the Art building to preclude the pos
sibility of being dwarfed by this
grand structure, so we picked out one
of the loftiest knobs on the fair site
in the first tier of hills, where the
Art building and the government
building are located. We wanted to
get into good company, so we thought
this position the most favorable in the
exposition grounds for display"
1.-The restriction of the expense for
architectural features to $500, GOO was
done so that at least half a million of
dollars might be expended in the ex-
hibit. 1t will take considerable money
to lay out the grounds, but they will
be so arranged hat there will be an
harmonious conformity with the land
scaPe decorations of the exposition
Immediately contiguous to our site
If the unique feature building thai
does away with the tri-building idea
is found feasible, most of our acreage
would be exhausted by that structure,
and the exhibit building, consequent
ly, the cost of landscape work would
be lessened. The details of the ex-
'hibit display have not been settled
yet, and will not be until the build
ing plan is finally determined"

the reception accorded Sousa's band,
the Daily Mail says:
There was never, perhaps, so eff

ness of the Anglo-American relation

which an enormous London audience
gave Sousa's band in the Royal Al.
bert hall, last night. Sousa's is GER
tainly a remarkable organization"
Other papers comment upon the
fact that at the beginning of the
musical season, when the holidays are
barely over, Sousa should be able to
attract such an enormous audience
and eulogizes mis- wonderful command
over the band and the range of its
achievements.
The Times says:
1.-THE concert proved an admirable
and most surprising lesson in the pos
sibilities of a wind band when ably
trained; and Mr.. Sousa is to be COM
plimented most heartily upon the re-
markable way in which he has his
forces under control"

THE GREENHILL's RELEASED.
Obtained a Writ of Habea
Denies he Made Confession
but Proof is Plenty.

De Soto, Mo-, Oct. William and
Daniel Greenhill, charged with the
murder of their sister and John
Meloy, have been released on bail. The
prosecuting attorney, Mr.. Williams,
refused to consent to a bond smaller
that $4,000 each. Through their law
yer they obtained a writ of habeas
corpus, and were brought before
Judge bearing, who fixed their bonds
at $500 each, which was furnished
by relatives, and their lawyers.
Caleb Andrews, charged with COM
plicity in the crime, had previously
been released on bond.
William Greenhill now denies en-
phatically that he made a confession
Saturday, and that he had admitted
that his brother Daniel committed
the crime. Prosecuting Attorney Will
Jams still maintains that the confess
sion was made, and says he has re-
liable witnesses t. prove it.

At the Park Street church Rev. DR..
Withrow presented the case of Miss
stone strongly, assuring his hearers
b a if the money is not used for her
ransom, it will be returned to the
donors, as the chances are that the
United States government will make
the Turkish government pay a heavy
indemnity for the outrage"
At the Shawmut Congregational
church, Rev. w. T. McElween said
that while he did not wish to discour-
age the present movement for Miss
Stones release, yet the whole thing
appeared to him. to establish a bad
precedent. He thought there must
be some efficacy in a first class bat
tleship with decks cleared for action.
In his opinion the brigands were
playing a game of bluff, and had no
idea of assassinating their prisoners.
Rev. DIR. Lorimer, at fremont Tenn
pie: Rev. John Galbraith, at the
Bromfeld Methodist Episcopal
church. and Rev. S. L. Herrick, at the
Mount Vernon church on Beacon
street, also presented the appeal, and
similar action was taken in other
churches. DIR. Herrick's congregation
subscribed SITS, but other pastors
asked donors to send their contribu-
tions direct to Kidder, Peabody g. Co.

of which Miss Stone is a member.

Miss Stone has been % years in Turkey

American board of foreign missions. Her
home is at Chelsea, Mass, Where her

Tomorrow mornings mail is ex-
pected to bring in many thousands

sible for Boston alone to raise v
one-third of the total amount. The
belief is general here that the coun-
try at large will care for two-thirds
of the ransom money, so that it will
be ready by Tuesday noon.

merits of the yachts it is not to be
compared with the magnificent, truly
run and royally-fought battles of Sat
urday and yesterday. The conditions
of the race at the start yesterday
were very similar to those of Thurs
day. The wind was strong and from
the shore, embroidering the sea with
foam and piling up no swell-ideal con
ditions for the challenger.
The racers were cent away before

racers, like gulls with outstretched

Their crews were gathered aft to

turned their noses into the wind for
the beat home the breeze moderated
and turned fiuky. The shippers split
tacks, each searching for wind, with
the result that first one would get a
lift and then the other. At one time
the Columbia seemed a mile ahead,
when a sudden can't of the wind al

Commodore Lewis Cass Ledyard,

truer sportsman to deal with"
Many of Sir Thomas guests on

express their sympathies at his de-

place he had won in the hearts of all
Americans.

lax
Boston, Oct. THE urgency of the
ease of Miss Stone, the missionary
held for ransom by brigands in Bull
garia, brought together the members
of the prudential committee of the
American board for two hours yester-
day. Later the committee issued n
statement based upon the views of
and the secretary, Rev. DR.. Judson
Smith, as the result of their visit to
Washington Saturday.
Both gentlemen had interviews with
President Roosevelt and the officials
of the state department. Tt was made
plain to them, they told the pruden-
tial committee, that the only way to
rescue Miss Stone and save her life
would be payment of the ransom. The
committee was informed that the gov
by reason of constitutional
restriction is unable to pay the ram
som.
The committee was also made
aware of the fact that the American
board has no money with which to
save Miss Stone. The only practical
way, therefore, was shown to be a
popular subscription which already
has been started. The committee
heartily approved this, and began
sending kilograms to many parts of
the country urging the subscriptions.
The committee says that in view ofthe
spirit with which the appeal is received
there is strong grounds for the hope
that the amount will be obtained
speedily. In every possible way the
American board will cooperate both
by gift and by solicitation.
