Passes AWAY in Paris


Passes Away in Paris.
Paris, Oct 5.-Frederick Auguste
Bartholdi the sculptor, died at a. m.
Bartholdi had no blood relations, but
two of his wife's relatives were with
her at the bedside when the sculptor
died. tuberculosis developed three
years ago and showed violent symp-
toms during the last few months, but
Bartholdi insisted on continuing work
in his studio. During the last days Of
his work he fully recognized the fatal
ity of the disease and began to design
his own tombstone. This will show an
allegorical figure holding out laurel

fore Bartholdi took to his bed. He
leaves an uncompleted, important
group intended to be erected in Paris

Paris. The group partakes of the
uniqueness and magnitude of the
statue Of Liberty and shows huge
balloon rising above the figures.

INCIDENT is CLOSED.
Too Much Importance Given to the
Gurney Affair,

Washington, Oct. 5.-One of the first
results of the return of Secretary Hay
to Washington was the closing up Of
the incident growing out Of the arrest
OF Secretary Quincy Of the British en-
basSy at Lee, Mass. The secretary
concluded that entirely too much i'm
portance had been given to this matter
and as Sir Mortimer Durand, the Brit
ish ambassador, coincided in this view
and let the department know that the
action of the Massachusetts authori-
ties in remitting the fine and extend
ing an apology was entirely satisfac-
tory to him the subject was dropped.

Much Relief Manifested by Russian
War Office.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 5.-Again no
news OF fighting comes from the front,
but some relief was manifested at the
war Office by the receipt of informa-
tion which definitely locates General
kuroki'S army, according to which he
has not appreciably changed his posi-.
tion along the line from Bensihu to
Bentsiaputze. General Nodzu still oc.
cupies the Yentai hills and General
Oku is to the west Of the railroad.
The Russian outposts are as far south
as the Shakhe river, fifteen miles from
Mukden. Field Marshal Oyama is re-
ported to be with the fourth army,
which at one time was understood to
have attained considerable proper
tons. 1t now seems to be a small
affair, not much over a brigade, and
apparently is not designed to play an
important role. Its mission probably
Is only to cause a demonstration on
the Russian left.
