Bold Crime Equals That Which
Made Ellen Stone a Prisoner in
Their Hands.
WARsHlP MAY BE DISPATCHED
Victims Nephew, an English
Citizen, Also Captured
Are Held for
Ransom.

Tangier, Morocco, May 1s-An
American citizen named Perdicaris
and his step-son, British subject
were carried off by the well-known
bandit Raisul and his followers last
night, and will doubtless be held for
a heavy ransom. The captives were
staying at Perdicaris' summer resi-
dence, only three miles from Tangier,
when the bandits attacked and cap.
tured them.
Perdicaris is of Greek origin, but is
a naturallzed citizen of the United
States. He is very wealthy and has
lived in Tangier for years, He mar
ried an English woman. whose son is
his companion in captivity.
Foreigners are much excited by this
bold raid so near Tangier, and attribute
1t to the supineness of the government
In failing to punish the bandits, who
last year captured Walter B. Harris
the correspondent in Morocco of the
London Times, and their failure to deal
with general lawlessness.

MAY SEND wARsHlP.
United States or Great Britain viii
Probably Dispatch Vessel.

washington. May 19.-The state de-
partment has received the following
cablegram from United States Consul
Gummere, dated at Tangier today:
'.Mr Perdiearis, prominent Ameri-
can citizen, long a resident of Tangier
and rich and well known. and his step
son, Mr.. varley, British subject, were
carried off last night from their coun-
try house, three miles from Tangier,
by a large band of native brigands,
headed by Raisuly, the bandit who car
ried off Mr. Harris last year. The Per-
dicaris house was broken into about
$3.50 last evening, while the family were
in the drawing room and the two men
were carried away"
Mr.. Gummere and the British min
lister are acting with energy in the
matter. They have sent special cour-
Ter to the court to inform the sultan's
deputy to comply with all requests
they make in this matter, and to insist
that the terms demanded by Raisuly
shall be granted in order to obtain the
release Of the captives.
Except for the difference Of sex, the
incident reported by Mr.. Gummere
compares in some respect with the case
Of Miss Ellen Stone, who was kid
naped by Bulgarian bandits. The de-
mand made upon the sultan by Mr.
Gummere that he pay the ransom de-
manded in this last case is said to be
In accordance with oriental customs.
Payment is necessary probably to save
the lives of the captives and it is not
doubted that the sultan will find some
means afterward to capture the brig
ands and recover the sum paid over.
Acting Secretary Loomis was in con-
sultation today with Captain Winslow
Of the navigation bureau, respecting
the dispatch of a United States warship
to Tangier to back up the consul's de-
mand. There are a number of British
warships within few hours sailing
and it is understood that as Mr. Gum
mere is cooperating with the British
consul, there will be no hesitation on
the part of the British government in
hurrying a British warship to the
scene.
Although a large fleet of American
warships is en- route to European wat
ers, there is not single United States
war vessel there now.

Interesting Statistics About Gradu.
ates Of Astoria High School
This Year.
FlNNS MAKE GOOD STUDENTS
Though a Little Slow In English
Studies, They Stand Re-
markably Well In
Mathematics.

Statistics have been prepared by
City School Superintendent Clark for
this years graduating class Of the
Astoria high school. and they show
many interesting things. There will
be II graduates, among whom are six
children Of American parents. four Fin
nish and one OF Swedish descent
The leader OF the class is Fin
nish girls; boy OF the same nationality
is second, and Finnish girls stand third
and fourth. An American boy comes
fifth. a fair maid of Sweden sixth
American girls seventh and eighth.
American boys ninth and tenth and an
American girl at the bottom OF the
class. The names are not TO be given
out yet, but will be within short
time.
Great preparations are to be made for
the commencement this year. The
baccalaureate sermon will take place
June 5. Graduation exercises win be
held on the evening OF Friday, June 10.
The class color Is scarlet red, and the
motto is to be selected within a few
days. as will the class emblem,
"The Finnish students are making
good ones" said Professor clark. "The
majority of them are In great earnest
ness about securing an education, and
there are no more faithful and willing
sturents in our schools than the Firms.
Naturally they are a little slow In the
English studies, the greatest difficulty
seeming to be in spelling. They mem
orize and use the rules Of grammar and
composition very well. and the only
hindrance in English studies seems to
come from the fact that they are OF
foreign descent. They are exceptionally
good in mathematics. About so per
cent Of the students I'm Astoria's schools
at the present time are scholars born
OF foreign parents. The graduating
class this year stands high in excel
lence and has finished its four-yeaI |
course with great diligence"
