AS Miss Davis entered the Opera

AIRSHIP FLEW TEN MILES.
BALDWIN Machine Got Out OF kilter After
Starting From Worlds Fair.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 25.-The Thomas Baldwin
airship, manned by A. Roy Knabenschup
Of Toledo, Ohio, started from the Aerodrome,
worlds fair, at o'clock this afternoon,
and made O flight across the Mississippi
River, landing at Valley Junction two and
a half miles southeast Of East st. Louis,
covering a distance OF ten miles.
A ten miles an hour breeze was prevailing
when the ascent was made. After rising
100 feet something happened to the rudder
and for time the aeronaut could not direct
the course. The machine was carried
eastward with the wind, stern first. The
defect was soon remedied and the ship
readily answered to the rudder. Knab
enschup sailed over the home Of the board
OF lady managers and then over the Office
of President Francis, where he made the
ship describe a figure and then directed
II to the east.
Between the Administration Building
and the Transportation Building Knaben-
schup attempted to tack against the wind,
but was unsuccessful A second attempt
was made, when a chain snapped and the
propeller stopped. Then the breeze carried
the ship slowly southw estward, crossing
the Mississippi. Near Valley junction the
aeronaut pulled the cord and opened the
valve, allowing the gas to escape. and the
airship quietly settled.
Knabenschup landed safely, and the air
ship was brought back to the city by
couple Of farmers.

Based on mutual sympathy and COM

grateful to America and were especially

believing that the American people would
recognize the fact that Japan was not striv-
ing for her own interests alone, but for
those common to all the Powers

Fields, soldier who had done good service
in the Philippines but who was sentenced
to fifty years in prison at Bilibid for shoot
ing Filipino was pardoned on last Friday
from the Alcatraz military prison here
by tho order OF President Roosevelt.
Fields, who Ia a son OF Mrs. Rhoda Fields
OF Q Dean street, Englewood. n. j., and
brother-in-law of Frank Titus. chief Of
police Of Englewood, ascrlbes much OF his
harsh usage during his three years in the
Bilbid prison to the malice OF Major Frank
Darlington and wife. Fields killed
Filipino who had grabbed his rife while he
was a sentry at Catbaglogan, Samar.
A court martial partly exonerated Fields
and assessed trihing penalty, but when
he overruled the finding and sentenced
Fields to fifty years in prison. This, Fields
declares, was due to the fact that the man
he killed had two sisters in the employ OF
Gen. Grant
Life in Bilbid prison was torture accord
ing to Fields, because of Major Carringtons
wife He says she inspected the prisoners
every day and for the slightest fault con-
demned men TO thirty days on bread and
water Fields charges that Darlington
took his bank book and oonfscated S3s7
belonging to him. He accused Darlington
Of holding out tobacco and other things
from the prisoners and making the men
buy these things from him.
Darlington Is now in Manila awaiting
trial on charges Of crookedness in his
accounts.

moned NJ. Morozoff, the greatest employer
of labor In Russia, to his palace, and told
him that he must subscribe more to the
army and other war requirements. M.
Morozoif replied that il he did so contribute
he must have representatives on the ad-
ministrativc fund to insure that all the
contributions were applied to patriotic

to know what he meant whereupon M.
Morozofr retorted that he had given million
r,,bles worth OF his cloth at the commence
ment OF the war for the Manchurian army,
and since then he had seen the same cloth
being sold in Moscow shops.
Grand Duke Serge angrily demanded an
apology from the plain spoken M. Moro
zoff and said II he did not receive it M.
Morozon would get his passport and be
compelled to quit Russia. NJ. Morosoff
refused to apologize, and he received his
passport. Before leaving he gave in
structions that all his factories should be
closed, thus throwing $1,000 employees
out OF work.
At this point the Government interviewed

mains in Moscow. The event Is being

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 25,-One hundred Of
the 1901 Italian immigrants b rought here
from Palermo on the steamer Eguria have
been detained by the immigration COM
missioner and ordered deported to Italy.
Among them are several afflicted with
disease, but ma jority are to be sent back
on the ground that they are paupers.
The detention Of so many immigrants
will cause considerable delay and some
loss OF money to the owners Of the steam
ship. They have the option OF either pro-
longing the stay Of the Lg,lria In New
Orleans or of sending the detained immi-
grants to New York city, whence they may
be deported to Italy. Among the immi-
grants detained is Giuseppe Panacomo
His trunk was found to have false bottom
which when broken into disclosed 1888 stilet-
tos. Panacomo could not explain the
stilettos, but seemed to imagine that the
Malta and vendetta were still prevailing in
New Orleans, and that more stilettos
were needed here for his fellow countrymen.

Clear Him OF GOebel Murder CHARGE.
Immediately after election ex Gov. Frank
b. Black Is TO go to Frankfort, KY, to try
10 Tree Caleb Powers, who Is awaiting exc
cution for the assassination Of Gov Goebel
Mr.. Black believes that young Powers Is
Innocent and declares that he will clear him
even II he has to take the case to the United
States Supreme Court.
MIR. Black first took an interest in the
case when he read Of it In the newspapers
and frequently expressed the opinion that
he did not believe Powers fired the shot that
Killed Goebel. but that he was being per-
secuted for political reasons. He said that
he would like very much to go to Kentucky
and put up fight to save Powers's life.
In some way his remark reached the friends
OF Powers and he received letter from
the family inviting him TO take hand in
the case. Mr.. Black at first declined, but
the family continued to insist and few
weeks ago they beg ged him so strongly to
take the case that he consented.
Mr.. Black stated however, that he would
take no retainer. All that he asked was
that friends should raise the money to pay
court expenses, which will be considerable
Most Of the money has already been raised

Powers has been convicted three times
In the Kentucky courts, and the case Is
coming up in the middle of November on
its final appeal. Mr.. Black thinks that
much OF the political prejudice against
Powers has died out and that he can now
obtain fair trial in the Kentucky courts
but II 1t is not possible to get an unbiased
hearing there, he will try to have the case
moved before the Federal courts.

A STANDARD OIL DISCLAIMER,
FORMAL DENIAL THAT 1T rs IN
THE POLITICAL BUSINESS,
Or the Banking business, or the Copper
Business, or the ~ eel Business. or the
Gas business. or the Stock Speculation
ISusiness-IIow Denial Was Provoked

s. c. T. Dodd, OF counsel for the 81 andard
Oil Company, authorizes tho following
atement:
In view OF the many false and misead-
ing statements from various sources, the
directors of the Standard Oil Company
deem 1t advisable to 1t ate o the company's
now nor at any time has the Standard Oil
Company or any Of its constituent COM
panies been Interested in any business not
directly related with and necessary to the
petroleum trade.
1T would be almost impossible to desig-
nate in this denial the different classes OF
business with which irresponsible parties
have coupled the Standard Oil Company
name, but 1t may not be amiss to specify
copper, steel, banks, railroads and gas (other
than natural gas) as being most prominently
mentioned. With none of these affairs
has the Standard Oil Company been at
any time connected. Individual members
Of the Standard Oil Company have been
and are interested az individuals in various
ENTERPRISES but this il entirely outside Of
the business Of the Standard Oil Company,
which is oil alone. unaffected by other inter-
ess in which its stockholders may invest
Neither is it true that the Standard Oil
Company John d. Rockefeller or any
officer OF the Standard Oil Company has
taken part in securing the nomination of
any OF the candidates for office, as is 30
positively stated.
Furthermore, it is entirely untrue that
there is any Standard OH party banded
together for speculation in stocks, as is so
commonly charged. The name Of Standard
Oil Company is frequently used by designing
persons in the manipulation of the stock
market but its use is unwarranted.
THE Standard Oil Company departs
from it's usual custom in making this denial
for the reason that the statements being
made at this time by newspapers, magazines
and sensational public speakers appear to
be unusually mendacious and may, to
great extent, mislead the public"
