DR.. Ames is wonderfully changed
from the description of him sent out
by the Minneapolis police after his
disappearance from that city. He has
srown a full beard and his hair is al.

AS soon as the Minneapolis officers
reach here, and they are expected in
a day or two, the matter of DR.. Ames'
~extradition will be taken up before the
governor and council. Developments
indicate that DR.. Ames still has many
friends and abundant financial re
sources, and that every move to bring
nim to trial in Minneapolis will be bit

 John c. Evans, clerk at the National Tradesmens bank, while skating at Lake Whitney Monday night, skated over an airl1ole and plunged into the water. He managed to keep his head above water. until some other skaters got a pole, and fished him out. He was badly chilled, but quickly recovered when he got into some dry clothes.
 The accident happened below the first bridge. It seems to be very fortunate circumstance that assistance was so close at hand when MT. Evans was plunged into the water.

CUBAN OFFICIAL
TO REMAIN HERE.
Albert Fuentes, Secretary of the
Worlds Fair Commission, Is
at the Planters.
WILL OPEN HEADQUARTERS.
Believes That Government May
Double Present Appropria-
tion-Says Island Repub-
lie Is Prosperous.

Albert Fuentes, member Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture of Cuba, and Sec
rotary of the Cuban Commission to the
Worlds Fair. is at the Planters and will
remain in st. Louis until the opening OF
the Exposition.
Cuba has appropriated $4,000 for the
Fair said Senior Fuentes, land I think
1t is probable that that amount will be
doubled. Several commissions are to be
added to the board as soon as the body
grasps the situation. 1 think that the
Government can be induced to increase
the Exposition appropriation.
Hundreds of Americans are going to
Cuba, and the island is enjoying a season
of prosperity unprecedented In its his
tory. The Americans have found that
oranges and hemp can be cultivated to
advantage. and thousands of acres are
being utilized for that purpose. In the
cultivation Of oranges 1t has been found
that Cuba has all the advantages of Flor
ida and California and none of the dis
advantages OF those Sites
Cotton, too, is becoming one of the
leading agricultural products OF Cuba and
predict record-breaking crop for 1904"
Senior FuenteS was sent to Havana three
years ago by the United States Govern
ment, and he Is one of the few officials
to be retained by the reorganized Cuban
Government.

FIRE IN LABORATORY
OF GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
Valuable Typographical Maps Arc
Burned, but Those Inteded for
the Worlds Fair Are Saved.

Washington. Dec. N.-Three alarms were
sounded for fire tonight In the photo
graph laboratory of the United States
Geological Survey, located in the top
story Of the Hoe building. on r street.
near Fourteenth street. The combustible
character of the material stored In the
laboratory caused the flames rapidly to
eat their way through the roof, but
prompt service by the fremen confined
the fire to the immediate section. In which
the laboratory Is located.
The loss to the survey, which probably
will aggregate about 5000. is from the
destruction of Photographic blue prints
and chemicals in the laboratory and from
the ruin Of some typographical papers in
the typographical section on the floor be-
low. The damage to the building prob
ably will not exceed 5000. The origin Of
the fire, 1t is believed, was from an cleo
trical connection.
A set Of topographic maps for the St.
Louis Exposition was saved from destruc-
ton. though some Of the models were
slightly damaged.
The St. Louis Republic. [volume] (St. Louis, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1903-12-28

In the meanwhile the robbers within the
building continued in their efforts at the
safe.
1t required three discharges of the ex-
plosive to remove the door. The third ex
plosion was terrific and almost completely
demolished the safe as well as the in
terror Of the bank. Paper money was
blown into shreds and lay about the room
in litters.
After looting the money drawer the rob-
bers left the building from the front and
backed Off into the darkness, keeping up
fire on the posse secreted in the stock
pens.
The men went in a southern direction
and were followed quite distance. 1t is
thought that one of the robbers was In
jured.
STEAL MUTILATED MONEY.
1t is believed that the robbers carried off
quantity of mutilated money, and this
may lead to their detection.
The bank officers place their loss of
currency at s. 800, while the damage to the
fixtures and building will be nearly as
much.
purusit. with little chance of immediate
results, as the men had several hours
start
1t is believed that the gang is composed
of crooks who have been operating in this
vicinity for several weeks.
Last Monday the Post-Ofice safe at
Krebs, near here. was blown in the same
manner.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New York. Dec. Y.-The Brooklyn Eagle
to-day publishes several letters from
members Of the crew that accompanied
Evelyn Briggs Baldwin in search of the
north pole when the latter commanded
the Baldwin-Ziegler polar expedition.
The letters are made public for the first
time by Mr.. ziegler, for the purpose of
refuting attacks made upon him by Bald
win, and with view to discrediting Bald
wins statements concerning the baking
powder manufacturer.
ALLEGE INTOXICATION.
These letters from the crew of the
america declare that Baldwin was in
toxicated at times; that he was false to
Mr.. Ziesler. in that he returned to Nor
way from Camp ziegler without any ap-
parent cause, instead of pushing on in
quest of the pole, and that he abrogated
the contracts made between the members
Of the crew and Mr.. Ziegler, compelling
the members to sign new contract sew
ering connection with the expedition I'M
der the auspices OF the Baldwin-Ziegler
polar expedition and agreeing to re-en-
gage with Baldwin. or with his represent
atives. in continuing the search for the
pole.
This contract was signed by seven
Americans whom Baldwin left at Camp
liegler. when he started to return to
before doing so he reported that there was
open water as far north as he could see.
Just why Baldwin returned to Norway
can only be known to himself. but these
extracts from the contract are considered
extremely significant:
EXTRACTS FROM CONTRACTS.
THAT the said - does hereby sever
his connection with the present Baldwin
ziegler polar expedition and hereby re-
engages with said Evelyn B. Baldwin"
And again. "And also to re-engage him
the Baldwin-Ziegler polar expedition in
case the said Baldwin. or Baldwin-Ziegler
polar expedition. should effect reorgani-
cation"
win never mentioned this contract cpl
sode,. and 1t was only by accident that w.
s. Champ. Ziegler's personal representa-
tive, obtained a copy of it:
Baldwin, who was one Of the seven men
left at Camp Ziegler, the other men
were: Doctor Werner, Doctor Seitz, LET
fingwell. Rilliett, Vineyard and Lukas.
Because Of Barnard.s relationship. he
contract. The other six were compelled
to return theirs to Baldwin under threats.
Baldwin did not know that this docu.
ment was in Mr.. ziegler,s possession until
New York. When asked for an explana-
ton, he made long. rambling statement,
now in Mr.. Ziesler's possession, which
tells everything Except why Baldwin
forced the men to sign contract. 1t was
rot satisfactory to Ziegler. and that was
the deciding factor in Ziegler's dischar-
ging Baldwin.
