 One lovely hat was of Tuscan straw and pink grapes.
 An odd shape was of sequins shirred maiine and feather sun-burst of black and white.
 Several flower hats bespoke the popu- larity that this form of millinery enjoys this season. Entire hats are formed of geraniums, forget-me-nots. daisies rose petals, pansies. etc.
 One Tuscan straw was adorned in trim mings of Tuscan straw lace in grape de- sign laid over folded naline.
 A large maline was most effective In adorning of grape straw trimmings. and
 A beauty in white was of horse hair mechlin lace, cream velvet ribbon and feather pompons.
 Especial attention has been paid by the A. 8. Knowles Co to two sometimes neg lected helds-children and old ladies For the existence of the IS to 6 year old, for whom the milliner usually seems to think the world is made-these other two must be and must wear hats and bonnets. The bonnets for older women seen at | Knowles yesterday were exquisite dainty and graceful in outline. Those for chill dren gave evidence that care and atten- | ton had been used in the selection of material and ih the making. It was learned that the sale of Easter | or spring bonnets at the A. s. Knnowles | Go. yesterday surpassed the fondest ex- | pectation of those interested.
 The 1,5O0 souvenirs given away were ex- hausted by o'clock.

NEW AMBASSADOR
Speculation Regarding the
 Success of. Sir Michael
The Part That Women in New York and on the Other Side Have Had in the Matter.

London, Oct. 5.-While the govern ment is endeavoring to maintain it's resolution not to consider the question of a successor to Sir Michael Herbert, the Washington ambassador, at pres ent, there is reason to believe that much wire-pulling is already going on and that several women prominent on both sides of the Atlantic are becoming in terested in the matter. It is said that after the death of Pauncefote the ap- pointment of Sir Michael Herbert was opposed by several well-knoWn New York people, ana a prominent English woman who was supposed to have the ear of the king was enlisted on their side, and that it was only with great difficulty that the kings consent was obtained to Sir Michael Herbert's ap- pointment.
 The British minister at The Hague is reported to be the kings cnoice for the post of ambassador at Washing ton. The king alone will make the selection. and it is unlikely that the premier or the foreign officers will be requested to nominate the ambassador. The likliest selection for the service is said to be Sir Arthur Nicolson, British as being in the line for an ambassador Either of these appointments would please the service

DIED IN A TUNNEL
Four Men Victims of an En-
 gineer Who Couldn't See
He Ran Into the Cars and the Rest of the Crew Saved Themselves by Jumping.

Los Angeles, Calif.. Oct. 5.-Four railroad laborers were killed and eigh- teen injured, two of them probably fatally in a collision at the southern end of the Chatsworth yard tunnel on the Southern Pacific today. The vic tims belonged to a crew of hundred men being taken to work. Two of the men were killed outright, one died while being taken to Los Angeles in a box car and the fourth expired soon after reaching the Sisters hospital in this city.
 At 3:3O o'clock this morning a work ing train left the Driver station. in this city and proceeded to- Chatsworth park. where one hundred men were taken aboard the first car. which was loaded with railroad steel and con- struction material. An engine was placed behind the train and pushed it out on the new cutoff, leading to the partly completed tunnel, six miles dis tant. The run was made at good rate of speed and the pace was not slackened when the end of the new track was reached. At this point were two flat cars loaded with rail- road iron wich had been left on the main track on Saturday night and which were to have been picked up by the work train.
 On approaching the two cars, the en- gineer did not, for some unknown req son slacken speed and the first car. laden with the crowd Of laborers, crashed into the cars on the track. The impact doubled both cars up like jack knives and threw the five score of men into the air on all sides. The majority saved themselves by jumping, but many were injured by the flying pieces of steel.
 The dead and injured were quickly placed in box car which was hastily prepared with a covering of straw on the floor and the run to Los Angeles was made.

The Venezuelan Government Trying to Collect Taxes From Those Who Paid the Rebels.

Port of Spain. Island of Trinidad, Oct. 5.-Emlssaries of President Castro of Venezuela have arrived at Ciudad Bolivar, Venezuela, with orders to col lect forcibly not only the taxes but custom house duties already paid by importers from May, 1902, to August, 1903, the period during which the revo- lutionists occupied that city as the government de facto. The amount de- manded is about s1,OO0, 900. The for eigners. including Germans, French 1talians and Americans, have refused to pay. claiming that the duties had been already legally paid.
 Menaces and vexatious tactics are employed against the foreigners. Herr Sprick, German, refused 10 pay back duties and a cargo of rum belonging to him which was being landed from a steamer was seized by the government

enough to express some weighty judg- mitted to you. You even initiated pro- posals of your own, which I gladly ac- cepted. Our last communication on these subjects was in the letter 1 dic- tated on my journey to Sheffield on Thursday afternoon. Less than forty eight hours thereafter I received in Edinburgh the telegrams which first your desire to see the process of resig- nation Gonsummated without delay and without discussion.
 ''The principal occasion for this sing ular transformation. was, you tell me. my Sheffield speech. This is strange indeed. In intention at least. there was TO doctrine contained in that speech which was not contained in my note on insular free trade and in my published letter to MT. Chamberlain. The first of these documents you had in your possession before the generality of the cabinet. The second you saw in the manuscript before it appeared in the newspapers. With both, therefore you were intimately acquainted during the whole fortnight in which you lent your countcnance to the government afters the recent resignation. I must suppose. therefore that it is some unin- tentional discrepancy between the written and spoken words which now drives you to desert the adminstra tion you so long adorned"

London, Oct. 5.-The three weeks of cabinet crisis has ended in a mtinner more remarkable and dramatic than that of it's inception.
 MT. Balfour's new ministery afford a measure of the enormous difficulty he has had to contend with in the task of reconstructing the cabinet, and it's composition seems to indicate that the premier himself can have little belief of it's durability.
 The new cabinet is composed as fol- lows:
 MT. Brodrick. formerly secretary of war, succeeds Lord George Hamilton as secretary for India.
 Austin Chamberlain. postmaster general, succeeds MT. Ritchie as chan cellor of the exchequer.
 Alfred Lytleton recorder of Oxford, succeeds Joseph Chamberlain as secre- tary for the colonies.
 H. O. Arnold-Foster. secretary to the admirality succeeds MT. Brodrick as secretary for war.
 Graham Murry, lord advocate of Scotland. succeeds Lord Balfour of Burleigh, as secretary for Scotland.
 Lord Stanley. financial secretary of the war department, succeeds Austen Chamberlain as postmaster general.
 The withdrawal of the Duke of De- vonshire is heavy blow. Had he remained the government might possi- ply have survived another parliament tary session by avoiding legisla ation with the fiscal problem. but with him goes the support of the tsrong party of liberal unionists in the country. MT Balfour's extraordinary letter re- preaching the Duke of DevonShire with Hack of faith is a theme of universal surprise and comment.
 Though it is generally admitted that it is difficult to understand why the duke did not resign when MT. Rftchie and the others succeeded. it is recalled that he publicly announced long ago l that he considered it his duty to hold office as long as possible in the interest Of free trade, and the curiously plain tive and bitter tone of Mir. Balfour's reply is regarded as altogether un- justified by the circumstances One consequence of the Duke of De vonshire'S retirement is extremely un- | fortunate for the government It will bring the leadership of the house of lords to the unpopular Lord Lans- | downe.
 No successor has yet been appointed l to the Duke of Devonshire and severa miner government offices still remain | vacant.
 Of the new appointments announced | tonight the most surprising is that of i Hon. Alfred Lytleton as secretary for 1 the colonies. MT. Lytleton is a man

THE fAi> EAST
There Is TO App, ehension
 in Great Britain
BUT JAPAN IS NERVOUS
The Time Has Come for Russia to Get Out of nanchuria, But She Has Not Yet Dcne So.

London, Oct. 5-No apprehension exists in the minds Of the British gov ernment or the diplomatists in London that the far easter n situation will bring forth any immediate serious de- velopments. This feeling of temporary security on the eve of the day. that Russia should, but admittedly will not evacuate Manchuria. is due to assur- ances on the part of Japan that so long as the negotiations now proceed ing between herself and Russia present reasonable prospect that a settlement will be reached. Japan will take no action hostile to Russia in the matter of Manchuria.
 sotiations. looking to final settle ment of the Russo-Japanese spheres of Influence in the far east and especially in dealing with the situation in Corea. are progressing satisfactorily at Tol1io.
 The most serious features of imme- diate danger the far eastern situation presents appear to be confined solely to the popular agitation in Japan against Russia after October 8. This. however, is being taken into consider alton by the Japanese government. whose diplomats have warned Russia that, while the Japanese government will not allew it's hand to be forced to the extent of entering into hostilities over the Manchurian evacuation ques- tion. it cannot indefinitely prolong the present negotiations at Tokio in the face of the expected popular clamor.

Elliott seemed to realize then for the first time that he was under arrest He was furious and made a desperate struggle for liberty. He drew a re- volver and attempted to shoot Officer Cissell, who finally wrenched the weapon from the maniac's hand. The officers were unable to control the violent man, and Cissell summoned help by discharging his revolver. Chief Usher Thos. Stone and Officer Parker. of the White House force. rushed to

 In the struggle in the police van Elliott broke a glass panel with his head. sustaining severe cuts. Cissell was also seriously cut on the arm.
 Elicit is undoubtedly insane. Several days ago he wrote a letter to Secre- tary Loeb, irclosing his photo and re- Questing an interview with the presi- dent. The officers were immediately notified to watch for the man. Yester- day Elliott appeared near the entrance to Grace Reformed church. where the president attended services. and made an effort tc speak to the president, but was foled by the secret service men. At 10 o'clock this morning he entered the vestibue of the White House, inquiring for President Roose- welt. The doorkceper told him to go away and return next month He smiled and walked away, but returned later. and became violent when Cissell placed him under arrest.
