try Tor the transplanting OF big trees
u that entered into today for the
Worlds Fair in this city. The site

MUGS Of the exposition, the director
Of works wiz have 700 trees, each II
10 is inches in diameter, lifted and
replanted where they viii remain
permanently. Special machines will

done while the trees are dormant

ton, and the trees viii be given the
best care and attention, in order to
assure their thrifty growth. The

The Recent Rumors of the Release OF
Miss Stone Pronounced to
be Untrue,

Constantinople, Jan. 6.-The news
that the brigands holding Miss Stone
captive are being hustled by the in
habitants Of the Turkish territory
where they are said to be in hiding,
has created considerable sensation
here. A deadly feud is said to exist
between the leaders of the hostile
bands, some of whom are reported to
have deserted and as attempting to
reenter Bulgaria. Much anxiety is
felt here with regard to the outcome
of these developments. The Ameri-
can legation here has not yet received
news from N. Gerguilo. the dragoman
of the legation (who left Salonica for
the interior the latter part of last
month, with the purpose of meeting
Miss Stones captors), Members of
the legation say the rumors of Miss
Stones release are quite unfounded.
No direct news has been received from
the American captive since November
10. the date of the last letter from
Miss Stone to Mr.. Dickinson, consul
general at Constantinople.

PICKING IS GAY.
Preparation for Return Of
Chinese Court.

Picking, Jan. 6.-The Chinese cap
ital on the eve of the courts return
presents an animated and gaudy
scene never before witnessed in its
history. All the palaces, pagodas and
temples have been repaired and
painted to form a glittering spec
tacle. The roofs of these buildings
viewed from the city walls are
patches of shining yellow tiles and
brick. The walls about the imperial
city are a vivid crimson, and the
gates have been repaired and gilded.
On the towers above the Chen-Meq
gate stands a gorgeous structure of
wood, cloth and paper, with a yellow
painted dragon entwined above the
massive cloth pillars. Hundreds OF
Chinese officials clad in furs and en-
broidered silks ride about the streets
of Picking, and parties of foreign sol
diers, bent upon sightseeing, roam
everywhere. Thousands of new SOL
diers from the province of Shan
Tung, who are finely uniformed and
equipped with modern weapons, en-
tered Picking Sunday morning and
marched through Legation street.
The ministers of the foreign powers
have received notice from the Chinese
foreign Office that all the streets upon
which the Chinese court will pass will
be closed to-day and tomorrow. Two
buildings on the principal streets Of
the line of procession have been pro-
vided from which the members of the
legations will be permitted to witness
the reentry of the court. This is an I'M
precedented concession. The foreign
ministers have decided, in considera-
ton of recent events, not to witness
the reentry of the court. This decision
is strengthened by the fact that the
majority of the ministers have not yet
presented their credentials.

night of the saloon riot.
After the shooting of the officer Sat
urday morning Leighton started east
from Evans station with the smoking
gun in his hand brandishing the
weapon about in a threatening man
ner. No one cared to interfere with
him and he was permitted to go his
way until julie Leyden, one of the
victims of the previous evening, halt
ed him by covering him with shot
gun. Leighton lodged behind awater
crane for barricade. John Howell,
in front of whose place Leyden was
standing, noting the situation ran to
the rear OF his place aud covered the
man with another gun. Howell stated
that he would have brought him down
but for the fact that he was so white
looking and he did not think he was
a colored fellow. Some one also call
ed from the station that he was not
the man wanted. With that Leigh
ton returned to the station and made
his escape from the west end of the
yards.

make the appearance of the man

DIVIDE HoNoRs.
Hanna Captures the Lower Ohio
House, But Foraker Men Con-
troll the Upper.

Columbus, O., Jan. 6.-Honors were
divided in the two republican cau-
cuses to select officers for the legis-
lature Saturday. each Of the con-
tending factions being victorious in
one branch. The Hanna men Sc
cured control OF the house, while
Foraker's followers captured the SEN
ate. There was no compromise be-
tween the rival forces in either case,
but each nomination of Importance
was fought to a finish. Neither side
would make a concession of value
where the other was vitality inter-
ested.
Although w. S. McKinnon, of Ash
tabula, was the Hanna candidate for
speaker, he always has been opposed
to the junior senator, and this is
taken by the Foraker forces as re-
ducing the Importance of the VIC
tory. B. L. McElroy, of Knox, a
former opponent of Hanna, was
forced upon his followers as chief
clerk of the house. Before the house
caucus met Newton NJ. Miller, the
Hanna candidate for clerk, withdrew
and the Hanna votes went to McEl-
roy, lest Speelman, the Foraker can
didate should win.
In the senate Foraker won all along
the line, his candidate for president
pro tenn, Senator Frank B. Archer,
of Belmont, being unopposed. Hanna
was Inundated by the defeat of w.
B. Uhl, of Cuyahoga, for chief clerk
of that body. He, above all others,
was desired by Mr.. Hanna. He was
willing to concede all the other Off
GERS of both senate and house If Uhl
could be saved, and in the peace con-
ferences at Washington between the
senator's Mr.. Hanna pleaded for Uhls
election. The roll call of the caucus
showed that Uhl had only seven Of
the 81 senators. F. E. Scohev. of Mi

The democratic senate caucus Sat.
urday night nominated Senator w. E.
Roudbush for president pro tenn. and
others for minor places. The demo,
cratic house caucus nominated off.
GERS, with c. L. Brumbaugh for
speaker. Later a joint democratic
caucus was held, at which Charles w
Baker, of Cincinnati, was chosen for
the nomination for United States
senator. The joint republican caucus
will be held this week. As there is
no opposition to the nomination OF
Senator Foraker for reelection it will
be merely a formal affair.
