announced that the secretary had
agreed to extend help and to do every
thing else possible to expedite the
movement of grain. Just what he
purposes to do he would not state.
The situation in the Northwest with
respect to the need for funds to get
out the wheat crop before the close
Of navigation was fully presented to
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Cortelyou at the conference of Sena-
tor Nelson and Messrs. Lusk and
Decker of the Twin City clearing
houses and by Messrs. Harrington and
Heffelinger, representing the grain
men.
The president and secretary heard
the statements through and manifest
ed special interest in what was said.
No detailed statement is o%btainable as
to the result of the deliberations, but
it is safe to say that the Minnesota
men were assured that the govern
ment will extend come relief along
the lines desired, all of which was
very gratifying to the delegation.

ENTIRE CREW Persisted
Russian Mutineers Not Killed
Jump Into the Sea.

st. Petersburg, Nov. According
to the official report of the recent
mutinous outbreak of sailors at Vladi-
vostok the crews of three torpedo boat
d~estroyers, the Skory, serdity and
Trevotshny, mutinied, hoisted the red
flag and shelled the port, doing cor.
siderable damage to buildings and kill
ing some soldiers and civilians. The
skory, on board of which were three
revolutionary agitators, including one
woman, took the lead in the mutiny,
the crew rising at the instance of the
agitators, killing the commander of
the boat and wounding the other Off
GERS, who were overpowered and con-
fined below decks. The fire of the re-
bellious torpedo boat d%estroyers was
answered by the batteries ashore and
from the gunboat Mandjour and the
torpedo boat d~estroyers Grosovoy,
Smelly and others. They surrounded
the Skory and poured a raking fire
into her, which battered her to pieces,
exploded her two boilers and caused
fire to break out on board. Nearly all
the mutineers of the Skory We're killed
on the vessel. The three or four sur
vfvors threw themselves into the sea.

CALLS ON THE PRESIDENT
Moro Prince Cordially Received at
White House,

Washington, Nov. Prince San
Faluna, a Moro, d%iminutive, swarthy
and seventeen, presented himself at
the executive offices of the White
House and was received cordially by
President Roosevelt. The prince was
dressed in a bright yellow Jacket and
white tight fitting trousers, with a red

the prince consisted of an interpreter

looking weapon in a white wooden
shield. The kris had been in the
family of the prince for $50 years and
was the property Of his father, Datto
Allie, who "a killed by American sol
diers two years ago. The prince
traces his ancestry to Mohammed, sew
enty-seven generations back. He is
returning to the Philippines from a
visit to the Jamestown exposition.

WORST PROBABLY OVER.
No Diverse Developments in Financial
Situation.

0llQdlIOIls
New York, Nov. 5.-The buoyancy
of the stock market reflects the ulti-
mate decision of large bankers to sup
port the two institutions-the Trust
Company of America and the Lincoln
Trust company-which have been sub
iected to the most severe runs during
the past two weeks.
Despite conflicting rumors the fact
that there has been no diverse de-
velopment is evidence that the worst
is probably owe An agreement has
been reached, largely through the in
f1uence of Mr.. Morgan, by which the
trust companies will cooperate in the
future for their mutual protection and
the directors will lend the assistance
of their personal fortunes to meet i'm
mediate necessities. The assets of the
two threatened companies have been
gone over by experts and both we're
found to be solvent, with a consider
able surplus after paying all claims
and providing for the capital stock.
Under these circumstances it was
thought advisable by the big men to
support them if they would adhere to
thoroughly conservative methods.

INDIANS BEGAN FIGHT.
Officers Report of Battle With the
Navajos.

Washington, Nov. According to
a dispatch received at the wal depart
ment from Major R. L. Hirst, chief of
staff of the department of Colorado,
at Denver, it is believed that the
Navajo trouble in Southern Utah and
Northern New Mexico is near an end.
The dispatch, which shows that those
killed were Indians, includes a report
from Captain Willard, who command
ed the expedition. The message re-
ports the return of Captain Wizards
command, a squadron of the Fifth
cavalry, from Aneth, Utah, with ten
Indian prisoners, including Bylillie and
nine followers.
&" captured prisoners" says Cap
tain Willard, -four miles east of An
eth at dawn Oct. %. Bylillie and fol.
lowers opened fire on Indian police
and my men and skirmish followed
for twenty minutes, in which three
Indians were killed and one seriously
wounded. One cavalry horse slightly
wounded. No other casualties. Pris-
oners here in guardhouse."

ONLY W HUNDRED KILLED
Latest Estimate of Victims of Kara
tao Disaster.

New Bokhara, T%urkestan, Nov. L.
The first reports of the catastrophe at
Karatagh were exaggerated. Instead
of $4,000 persons being killed only
about 200 lives were lost. Most of
these persisted under the landslide,
which buried 400 of the 600 houses of
the town.
Karatagh is situated in a small am
phitheater among lofty hills, the Kara
tagh mountain hanging over it on one
side and a river flowing on the other.
At the height of the recent earthquake
a great section of the mountain broke
away and slid upon the town. Houses
there were already falling on all sides
from the violence of the earthquake
and many of the luckless inhabitants,
unable to escape through the narrow
streets encountered by debris, were
caught and buried. No building in
the town was left standing, the earth
quake dwelling them all to their
foundations. ALI the survivors were
without shelter and a relief expedition
with supplies has left New Bokhara
for the scene of the disaster.

that the strong, powerful bird had

The fish was supposed to have been
about seventy pounds in weight. An.
other case on record is that Of a five

So %voracious is the muskellunge that ii

The Harvest Victim.

By the middle of each September
England will be dotted over with
stacks of corn, and almost all of them
when thatched will be crowned with a
wisp Of straw tied on to a stick or a
pitchfork and looking at a distance
about as much like a bird as q scare
crow looks like a man. This almost
universal and apparently meaningless
custom is a relic of the pagan times
before the Roman conquest, when the
tillers of the soil killed a human victim
to propitiate the spirit of the corn and
buried him or part Of him in the stack.
Our wisps of straw represent the eff.
gy which in later days was substituted
for the victim. Traces of this super
stition are found all over the world
and in almost every century, survivors
of the dim ages when man looked
upon the gifts Of nature as a boon to
be bought with a price of Blood
