ARMY OFFICER WELL
KNOWN In LARAMIE

The press dispatches tell of the court
martial of Captain James P. Ryan of
the Fifteenth United States cavalry,
who was charged with torturing Fill
pinos. One dispatch says that the cap
tain is charged with a variety of tor.
lures not'aheretofore known or men.
toned in dispatches or by witnesses.
His methods, as explained by William
P. Rhodes, special prosecutor for the
government, who investigated the case,
were to tie the arms of the native to
his body in such a way he could not
protect his head. He was stood upon
a hardwood floor and his feet knocked
from under him.
He was then lifted by the heels and
his head bumped against the floor, af
ter which he was stood on his head in
a bucket of water. This system
Rhodes says was employed three times
in the case Of one Waldo Obin. A doz
en- natives are said TO have received
this treatment.
The officer referred to was former
ly in the recruiting service and as such
well known in Laramie, when a re
cruiting station existed here about
three years ago. His friends are 10th
to believe the stories printed against
him.

BOLIVIA TAKES A HAND
The Whole Country Is Placed Under
Martial Law-Many Rumors
Are Aaoat.

La Paz. Bolivia, (via Tacoma, Chile Nov.
1.-CitiZens Of this city were astonished
Saturday evening when government Off
Gals posted throughout the town placards
which declared the whole republic of b.
livia under martial law owing to the
country being threatened.>
The decree caused intense excitement
because Of the unexpectedness of the an
nouncement and ignorance of the reason
for the government adopting such a step.
Two rumors were heard. One was that
the Bolivians had been completely de-
feated in Acre. The other report was
that 1000 Peruvians were on the frontier,
near the Madre di Dios river. Ell Conner
clio in comm enting on the situation says:
The exact seriousness Of the news
from Acre is unknown, but the govern
ment must be in possession of grave news
to take such measures and to declare a
state of siege which appears unnecessary,
but the entire country, without distinc-
ton Of party or class, will stand by the
government.
"Some persons attribute the govern
ments action to a desire to obtain pop
ularity and to put an end to the senate S
opposition to concluding arrangements
with Chile.
These charges we regard as unfounded
and we recommend that the government
make public all news from Acre inme-
diatey after being received

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE shington
Post to-day discusses Congressman elect
Lind. saying: >...'
THE likelihood that Ex-Governor Lind
Of Minnesota may come forward as a
prominent democratic leader In the next
congress is being discussed in some quar-
ters. OF course, there are too many
democrats of several terms of service to
allow the north star state luminary to
bear off a nomination for speaker by the
minority, which generally carries with it
the title of minority leader. However,
that is not an ironclad rule. and the demo-
cratic nominee might nominally be the
minority leader, while the real leader
could be some other. who dominates by
the sheer force of his individual powers.
Governor Lind has served several years in
the house and is not a stranger to the
ways Of legislation. He Is a good de-
batter, and can hold his own in the rough
and tumble kind Of oratory which so
often prevails in the chamber.
In vigorous champions Of democracy
OH the floor the minority Is signally lack
ing. Should Governor Lind show dispo-
sitton to enter the arena he would I'M
doubtedy be welcomed by a very large
contingent Of his party
1t is thought here that the democrats
want to get rid Of Representative Roch-
al uSOI VI 1SIlIeSSee, whose leadership
during the last four years has been gem
orally unsatisfactory. Some members of
the party have turned to Representative
George B. Mcclellan of New York, as
the only man who, during the last ses-
sion of congress, had the courage to tell
Richardson that he was sick and tired Of
his peanut politics. Mr.. Mcclellan has
the advantage Of yout has we'll as expert

by William Robothan and John Hing
worth OF Newark to, restrain the merger
of the Prudential Life Insurance COM
pany Of America and the Fidelity Trust
company. came up before Vice Chancel-
Tor Stevenson in Jersey City to-day The
plaintiffs claim that the Prudential com
pany has no right under it's charter to
consolidate and that the Fidelity Trust
has no legal right to enter into the
scheme, because as alleged, it has not
been a dividend corporation for five years
as the law requires. The answer of
United States Senator John S. Dryden,
the president OF the insurance company,
was submitted to the court and the case
was then adjourned until Friday next
The answer was submitted by Former
Attorney General John w. Griggs. In it
President Dryden says that the policy
OF the insurance company in investing in
the stock Of the trust company was the
result of mature deliberation. The trust
| company had regularly paid dividends on
its capital stock for five years preceding
the time of the first purchase Of its stock
by the Prudential company and has con-
tlnued to pay the same semiannually
President Dryden denies that sum ex-
ceeding 100000 is to be paid out Of
the insurance cempanys assets to the
trust company for the purpose of having
it paid over by the trust company to the
! principal stockholders Of the insurance
company. Mr.. Dryden also denies that
the insurance company intends to become
engaged in the banking. trust, title or
savings bank business, and says that it
proposes to limit it's operations in the
! future as in the past to the business of
HE insurance as at present. conducted.
Mr. Dryden says he is the largest indi-

Chicago Nov. 11.-Charles G.. Goven,
the missing secretary to Henry Botsford
and the Provision Dealers Dispatch can
not be found by detectives and friends
who are putting forth every effort to get
him back to Chicago. Goven is wanted,
not particularly to answer to a charge of
embezZlement but to assist in straight
enfng out the books of the Provision Deal
ers' Dispatch. which he is said to have SO
mutilated that the extent of his shortage
has been covered up. A large force of ex-
pert accountants in the employ of the
Audit company of New York have found
the books in such a state that they are un-
able to say whether Govern got away
with 100000 or 100000. Mr. Botsford
has found one shortage of $4,000, which he
charges to his absent secretary.
The disclosures show that Goven led a
double life at least In the business world.
Among his associates and in his office in
the Royal Insurance building, he was
known as careful, conservative business
man, whose energies were devoted to Mr.,
Botsford's interests. and making money

writer's that the greatness of nation de-
ponds much upon the physical condition of

contribute to health and long life, are
those which do not imply rapid and un ii
equal exhaustion Of those powers by which
life is maintained. While we assert that
the women of our land stand peerless for
beauty and the virtues that make, them
lovable, we cannot hide the fact that there,
are thousands in our midst who, owing to

HYPNOTISM TRIED
An Alleged Colored Murderer Put
Under q Smell

Savannah. Ca, Nov. 11.-Hypnotism has
been applied as a test to former convict
named Miller, a negro who confessed to
the murder of Gugie Bourquin and his
colored body servant. Miller claimed that
he was hired by a white man to kill
Bourquin. His confession has been gener-
ally regarded as a pure fabrication and he
was put under hypnotic influence in order
to prove or disprove his strange story.
Miller, in his trance said he did not fire
the shots that killed Bourquin but that he
heard them and knew who fired them. He
was put into a buggy with two officers
and made to go through what he alleges
to have been. his connection with the
tragedy. Still in a trance he drove into
the country and pointed out the exact To-
cality where he claims the shooting oc-
cured. Miller described infinitely four
men who, according to his story muir
dered Bourouin. Miller Is illiterate, being
able neither to read or write. His story
is not believed to be true in spite of its
apparent hypnotic confirmation.

Now Working in New

Ne1p ForIs Sun Special Serrtco

New York. Nov. lift in the future,
anybody in San Francisco or other re-
mote parts Of the world has any intention
Of circulating stories about Prince Hugo
Won HOhenlohe, nephew of the late Chan
cellor of the German empire for publica
tion In New York. he should know that the
prince is right here on the spot to deal
with such tales. Prince Won HOhenlOhe is
and has been since last spring clerk in
the office of Ladenburg. Thamann & Co,
at % Broadway. and he is keeping house
with the aid of good German housekeep-
Or. at 43 E Sixty third street.
The prince cannot speak much English
but he can read it fairly well, especially
II the subject matter has to do with Prince
Won Hohenlohe. To-day he managed to
make out enough of the stories printed
In the newspapers to the effect that he had
agreed to pay certain persons $4,000 if
they could get Miss May Goelet, to look
with favor on his proposal Of marriage to
heat his Teutonic blood to the boiling
point. He said such things as only the
German language could do justice to-
Prince Hugo went directly to the office
Of his American lawyer. William A. IN
derwood. Mr.. Underwood gave out this
statement:
prince Hohenlohe has been the subject
OF numerous threats in case Of refusal to
pay money. of which he has taken abso-
lutely no notice.
The whole article as published in New
York is a tissue of falsehoods. He had not
until his arrival in this country, the honor
OF knowing either of the American ladies
mentioned. and he has never made any
such proposal as stated. or even dis
cussed it.
He was unfortunate enough to make
the acquaintance of Porkony. formerly in
the Austrian army, but who had been ex-
PEELED therefrom for disreputable prac-
tlces' out OF which Prince Hohenlohe was
entirely ignorant. PorkonX had the man.
ner and appearance Of a gentleman The
prince also met the man O'Brien. who is
said to be disbarred solicitor, formerly
OF the English bar.
1T goes without saying that Prince Ho-
henlohe. on account of his position and
his family connections both in Germany
and England, did not need any introduce
ton from men Of the standing and caliber
Of Porkony and O'Brien
