DROVE CHINAMEN OUT.
Mob fin Nevada Town Compel csIestIaIs
 to Leave-One KilIed.

Tonopah, Ney. Sept. 17.-A mob of twelve or fifteen men invaded China town at this place yesterday afternoon and at the point of guns compelled a number of Chinamen to leave town, and several who did not comply were badly beaten, dragged to the outskirts of the town and told to take the road to .So- dayille. Later on all but one returned to town and notified the officers. They stated that Firing Ling, a seventy-three years old man and the proprietor of a wash house, was one of the victims and they believed he had perished on the road. Searching parties were sent out this morning, and they found his horri- ply mutilated body three miles west of town. The Chinamen were also robbed Of several hundreds of dollars before running out of town. Eighteen men, mostly cooks and walters, have been ar rested and are now in jail. Among the number is c. B. Arandall, president of tailor union. --e

FRANCIS JOSEPH FIRM.
The Austrian Emperor Causes Great
 Sensation.

' s-.a i'd rE'z .-t
 Vienna, Sept. 17-Emperor Francis Joseph, who to-day returned from the army manoeuvres. has issued an i'm portant army order enphatictlly declar- ing he will never consent to the de- mands of the Hungarian party who in sist on the use of their own language by officers in giving commands to the Hungarian section of the forces.
 Dealing with this question which pre- .cipitated the political crisis, the ern- peror said:
 I am bound and determined to up- hold the army's present well tried reg .ulations. Certain one-sided efforts cal- .culated to undermine the sterling struc- sture of the army must have it borne home that I will never give up the rights and prerogatives which are guaranteed to me as the supreme commander
 The emperor's army order caused an immense sensation in Austria and in Hungary. The impression caused by the imperial order is almost indescribable. Hitherto the emperor has been regarded as the most silent monarch in Europe. Never before, even in the gravest con- stitutiona1 conflicts, has he used such, language as is contained in to-day's or der. It Is taken elsewhere as being the beginning of a, conf1ict between the throne and the Hungarian parliament, the end of which cannot be foreseen.

BULGARIA. CAN EXPECT NO AID
 IN EVENT OF VAR.
Aastro-Rus.ian Reform Plan win bs Appiied-Turkey to Do Told to Exer- else Her Rights and Also to Maintain Order fin the Interior.

Sofia, Sept. 1.-The German repre- sentative here has addressed a note to the Bulgarian government, in accord with the declarations of Russia and Austria, saying that Bulgaria cannot expect assistance from any power in the event of war with Turkey, and that the Austro-Russian reform plan will be applied. .z
 The Austrian representative, in in- sisting on the necessity for Bulgaria re- maining calm, declared that if the prin- cipality was powerless to prevent the passage of insurgent bands into Mace donia, Austria and Russia would take note of her powerlessness and charge Turkey to exercise her rights, defend her territory against foreign incursions and maintain order in the interior.
 The government, while steadily pro- ceeding with the partial mobilization plans, is endeavoring to avoid unneces- |sarily exciting the people, and conse- |quently has resolved not to mobilize any bart of the Sofia garrison.
 The war office has recalled the Bull garian officers who were studying in the military schools of Russia, France land Austria. s.....

ANOTHER MASSACRE.
Turks Said to Have Destroyed Town's Entire Population.

Sofia, Bulgaria, Sept. 17.-The foreign office here has received reliable inform ation that the Turks have. destroyed the town of Kastoria (thirty-six miles south of Monastir), and have massacred the population. -...-.s
 The report of massacre at Kastoria comes from sources admitting of little doubt, though the details are lacking. It was received with the gravest con- cern by the officials here. The popula- ton of Kas.oria numbers about 10000 persons and the massacre o. such a humber in one place, if the report is true, exceeds anything which has yet occurred in Macedonia. At the present critical moment, when popular feeling is intense. the effect of the report of such stupendous slaughter may be most serious.

ON ROCKS AT DRY REEF.
Large Three Mested Schooner in n
 PertIous Postston.

Westport, Sept. 17.--A large three masted schooner went on the rocks at Dry Reef last night. When last seen the waves were breaking over the ves- sel and five men could be seen clinging to the rigging. The name of the schoon- CT cannot be seen from shore, and the tumbling sea makes it impossible to launch boat to go to the rescue of the mariners in distress. The schooner is about two and a half miles from shore, and as soon as the storm abates an at tempt will be made to reach the strand ed vessel. The prospects of the schoon- CT riding the storm out safely are very poor. ~5s
