J. R. STANHOPE IS
 LOST IN HURRICANE
AMERICAN BOAT OWNED BY MO. BILE MAN STRUCK BY TROPICAL sToRM-cREW PICKED UP AT SEA.

Montgomery. August 20-A special to the Advertiser from Mobile says A cable gram was received here today from the captain of the steamship Bratten dated Puerto Cortez, saying the American bark John R. Stanhope had been lost in the great storm which swept the island of Jamaica and the crew had been picked up by him and were safe.
 The Stanhope was owned by Christopher II. Costello of this city and was in com- mand of Capt M. J. Marcial. The vessel and cargo were insured.
 Since the news of the loss of the Stan hope great fears have arisen as to the safety of the British three masted schoon- CT c. E. Bentley, which cleared from Mobile on July 22 for Cienfuegos. On board were the remains of Capt. John Wood, late commander of the schooner, and his brother-in-law. MT. Eden, which were being taken to Grand Cayman for re-interment. The family of the captain and the wife of Captain Rennie Eden. in command of the vessel, have beeniiln command of the vessel. were also on board The vessel is now out twenty eight days and should have been reported from her destination more than week no

BRAMSTON SHOWS
 HIMSELF A WONDER
BRITISH GOLFER WINS TWO SILL YER CUPS AND BREAKS ALL RECORDS OF THE HOMEWOOD COURSE AT CHICAGO.

Chicago, August 20-J. A. T. Bramston. Oxford Cambridge golf team, celebrated the last day of the Englishmen's western trip at the Homewood County clubs links. by winning two silver cups and breaking all competition and practice records of the course He captured the trophies in have played in since their arrival, with a total of 75 strokes, two strokes lower than the second cup-winninC score of his Oxonian teamrlate. H. w. Beveridge, who made Y strokes. Several Chicago golfers who played in the competition made good scores, but had little chance with the best of the Britons. None of the latter eyer saw the Homewood course un- til today, and had to be coached to keep them from overplaying some holes. Bramston's record was wonderful because 1t was made with the hard ball.
 All the other players used the rubber cored ball. A. J. Christie, the local pro- fessional, held the record-7S and Louis N. James and G. r. Clingman tied this season with T for the amateur record.
 Blistering sun rays and a fresh breeze bothered some of the visitors. Captain Lowe had S3, H. G. P. Ellis. playing with R. F. Mundy, turned in 70.
 Bramston's home club at Winchester, England, will have the custody of the $500 Main cup for one year, when it will be returned for annual competition at Homewood. The other cup Is the Britons personal property. It Is not likely that any golfer will attempt to equal Bram- stons record with gutta percha ball, and the mark will stand indefinitely.

NEWS OF FLEETS
 ARRIVAL SPREADS
SUPPRESSION OF TELEGRAMS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS IN CON- STANTINoPLE HAS LITTLE EF- FEcT ON PEOPLE.

Constantinople, August 2O.-The Rus sian squadron arrived off 1niada, the eastern coast of European Turkey, yes terday afternoon.
 The news of the arrival of the Rus sian squadron is spreading, notwith- standing the continued suppression of all teIegrams and announcements on the subject.
 The general opinion of the Europeans here is thaA the time has arrived for a vigorous intervention and the abandon ment of all semi-measures, which are re- garded as the cause of the present up- rising.
 According to the Turkish official re- ports the strongest positions of the in- surgents are at Krushevo, Meriroro and Florina.
 Contrary to previous reports 1t is now stated officially that Krushevo is still occupied by the insurgents.
 The headquarters of the revolutionists is in the Peristeri mountains in the vicin- ity of Monastir. Women and children are not molested by the insurgents, who have destroyed only fortified dwellings occupied by rich Turks. It is not denied that they kill all bulgarians and Greeks found acting as Turkish spies but the strictest orders have been issued not to interfere with women or children

us. STEEL MAKES
 A BIG PURCHASE
MEsABA IRON ORE LANDS BE- COME THE PROPERTY OF THE T R U S FARE EXCEEDINGLY VALUABLE.

New York August 2O-The deal for the purchase of iron ore land on the Mesa ba range, Minnesota, by the United States Steel corporation was verified to- day by local officials of the corporation
 By this purchase the steel corporation takes the last single block of ore prop erty in the Mesaba range which is for sale. It is stated that the importance of the purchase cannot be over estimated. In all about 7O0O0,0O0 tons of excellent quality of ore, much of 1t high grade Bes- semer' has been measured up on the land acquired, and 1t is estimated that an even larger yield will be obtained.
 The properties were purchased from the holders Of the Chemung Iron company of Duluth. The lands are mostly leased properties, on basis of 25 cents a ton royalty. which is considered to give the steel corporation an immense addition to Its ore reserves at no undue cost Some of the deposit measures up to 63 per cent Iron and down to 35 per cent phosphorus.

BRINGS ON DARKER STAGE.
Berlin Takes Gloomy View of Mace.
 donian Trouble.

Berlin, August 20.-The rising in Mace donia is regarded here as bringing on a darker stage. The insurrection is taking on proportions unexpected by the Ger man diplomatic agents. Bulgarian feel ing. excited by the murders and tor lures across the border, is less restrain able by the Bulgarian government and the movements of the Russian and Brit ish fleets add to the nervousness on the boerse and among traders and bankers owning Turkish railroad shares or hav- ing commercial interests in Turkey.
 The German government maintains its passive attitude with the desire to join the other powers in any communications to Turkey or Bulgaria designed to pre- vent war and tending to confine the dis turbance to an instruction which Tur- key must suppress.

ATTRACTS LITTLEINTEREsT.
Yesterdays Matches In Tennis Tour
 nament Pass Off Quietly.

Newport, R. l., August 20.-But little interest centered in today's matches in the national tennis championship tourna- ment, the match between H. l.. Doherty and Richard Stevens alone being note worthy. A good match was anticipated between l.. H. Waidener and R. c. Seayer. but this was prevented by the formers departure, the match going to Seaver by default, and giving that player a possible chance to meet one of the Dohertys in the semi-fnals. R. F. Doher- ty, Ware and Clothier devoted the day to rest.
 Conjectures are being made as to the probable makeup of the team which is expected to go to England next year and battle for the Davis international tennis trophy. Efforts are to be made to have D. F. Davis and M. D. Whitman join the team and accompany w. A. Larned and H. Ward to England next June, in an attempt to regain possession of the cup which they successfully defended at Brooklyn last year.

 For a space of fifty yards about the point of origin, all derricks and pump ing rigs were destroyed. A gate valve on one of the gushers was leaking and the oil and gas became ignited, sending a column of oil many feet in the air Ev cry available man went to work and much valuable machinery was saved by being pulled out of the way. The fire has partly burned itself out and only waste oil is burning tonight. It is being care fully watched. The town was not touched.

BEAUMONT BANKS
 ARE NOT AFFECTED
FAILURE OF CITlZENS' NATIONAL DOES NOT CAUSE A RUN ON OTHER NsTITuTloNS-LlABlLI- TIES ARE HEAVY.

Beaumont, Tex, August 20.-The failure of the Citizens National bank of this city and the closing of the doors to the public last night has not in any way af- fected the business houses of the city, and the other banking institutions have not been called upon to do other than their usual amount of business. Bank Ex- aminer Logan still refuses to make any statement about the condition of the bank, but from other reliable sources it Is learned that the liabilities will reach close to $45O,0OO, divided as follows:
 Deposits $277,OOO, bills payable and notes and bills discounted $227,O0O, making a total of $450,0OO.
 President Oliver wired the banks at Frost, Groesbeck, Barron and Hubbard City, in which he is interested not to open their doors, and all of them today sus- pended payment for the time being. They are involved in so far as Oliver is con- cerned but are not known to be otherwise in trouble. They are all represented among the banks having overdrafts with the Citizens bank.
 Mir. Oliver declines to say why he or- dered his banks closed.
