Buys Horse Ridden by the President
Rough Tour in Wyomins-Troop-
ers Help Haul Wagon Train.
General Frank Baldwin, commander
of the Department of the Colorado, has
purchased thehorse ridden by President
Roosevelt from Laramie to Cheyenne.
which that accomplished horseman
pronounced the best horse he had ever
ridden. says the Denver Republican.
General Baldwin holds the same opin-
ion after riding him 100 miles in less
than six days in an unsettled country
without trails. and up the sides of
seemingly impossible mountains. All
this was done on practice march
with seventy-five troopers from Fort
ID. A. Russell.
Teddy" the horse, will be christ
ened with the name of Pandapatan.
This is the principal stronghold of the
/ Filipinos in MindaEao, the capture of
which won star and fame for Gener-
al Baldwin. The animal vas pur-
chased last week in Laramie from j.
w. Ernest. 1t is large iron gray,
full of life and of splendid speed.
On top of the rides made by Presi-
dent Roosevelt and General Miles the
trip just made by General Baldwin
with his troop of cavalry makes his
tory in endurance contests. The gem
eral is over sixty years old and has
seen active and arduous life in the
field. The trip was made in the heart
of the Medicine Bow forest reserva
ton where for miles there were no
trails and at times the route went up
the sides OF mountains so steep that
thirty men had to hold the wagon in
the train with ropes as well as the
sixteen mules necessary to make the
trip. The smallest days work was
twenty-seven miles and the greatest
was forty-five miles. The entire dis
tance covered was 1G0 miles. and 1t
was done in five days and half, lack
ing two hours.

reservation" said General Baldwin.

tains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds

daily. is seriously considering such a
measure.
The Turkish government is believed
to have no less than 10000 soldiers in
the villages of Adrianople. large bodies
of them within ten to Is kilometers OF
the Bulgarian frontier. Confronted
with such a situation, it is argued that
Bulgaria would be amply justified in
mobilizing the First and Second army
divisions, the headquarters of which
are at Sofia and Philipopols, and which
comprise the forces nearest the Turk
ish frontier.
The government appears to be firm
ly resolved to avoid giving Turkey the
slightest preteXt for declaring hostili-
ties, and is doing its utmost to restrain
the war fever. Sofia and the country
generally are outwardly as calm as in
garians say this calm is more to be
feared than at any other time.
All engagement is reported to have
occurred between a force of insurgents
and Turkish troops at Suipindol in
which not single revolutionist was
killed, while the Turks lost heavily.
Telegrnms from Burgas say the Bull
garian population is fast disappearing
from the district of Losengrad and that
every one unable to escape to the Bull
garian frontier is killed.
Five hundred fugitives who have ar
rived at Burgas from Tekengea report
that two men. one 100 years old and the
other eighty-five, were impaled by the
Turks The war Office here is greatly
concerned over the increasing number
of deserters who go to join the in

70 BRING WAINWRIGHT BACK
France Will Be Asked to Make
Bribery an Extraditable 0ffense.
Ambassador Porter Instructed TO Re-
gin Negotiations For Additional
Clause in Extrndition Treaty.

St Louis, Oct. PA cablegram from
tion from France that the French gov
ernment is at work on a revision ef
its treaty with the United States which
may open way for the eXtradition OF
Ellis Wainwright, indicted by the St
Louis grand jury on bribery charge,
The present treaty with France, like
the one formerly in force between the
United States and Mexico, does not
include bribery as an eXtraditable Of
fense Relying upon this fact, Vain
wright has been living in Paris since
the beginning of the Doodle investiga-
tiOns.
Recently Secretary of State Hay has
instructed Ambassador Porter at the
French capital to begin negotiations
for an additional clause in the eXtradi
ton treaty between the two countries
by which bribery may be made an eX
traditable offense.
Information from Paris Monday
states that Ambassador Porter has be-
gun this work and that his first in
formal conferences with the French
authorities have been held.
The French officials have indicated
a decided willingness to make the addi-
tion to the treaty and are giving as
sistance in fastening the progress to-
ward the formal draft of the new doc
ument.
Doubt is expressed whether the
French authorities will consent to
making the new provision retroactive,
so that offenders whose crimes were
committed prior to the adoption of the
treaty may be reached.
The instructions from the state de-
partment are said to be very explicit
in urging a retroactive clause, and
every effort to make the new treaty eff
fective against Wainwright and others
who have sought France as an asylum
will be made.
