Cause Delay mt Pier.

New York. Sept. Miss Emile Grigs-
by. ward of the late Charles T. Yerkes.
the traction magnate. coming home to-
night on the Olympic. was held up at
the pier by customs officials.
For nearly two hours the beautiful
young woman. who, in her London stay.
ingratiated herself with the Princess
Mary so that she got a royal invitation
TO witness the coronation, had TO wait
in the little appraisers house on the pier
while half a dozen insistent customs
officials looked over a jewel case full
of rare gems which she had brought
over.
The official announcement was made
that her collection of jewels had been
appraised at $500, 900.
Miss Grigsby made an affidavit that she
had taken the fortune in jewels over to
England with her. She insisted that
they were all her personal property,
given her before she went abroad. After
the customs officials had inspected the
jewels, comparing the collection with a
list furnished by Miss Grigsby. they took
her word for It that all the dazzling ar
ray was exempt from duty.

victing evidence. was arrested on Prince
street to-day with n deadly bomb con-
cea!ed beneath his coat. Detectives Car
rao, CastanO, and Dondero. OF the italian

what is regarded as the most important
arrest OF the year.
In Costabile's pocket were found sew
eral written lists, one of which IS said
TO have contained the names of victims.
Another list was made up OF names of
members OF the Black Hand" band, a
Clew which the police say will lead 10
more arrests. Costabile has been known
TO the police for ten years as the brains
Of band Of some fifteen Italians who
have tcrriOrized their compatriOts. He
has been arrested several times in con-
nection with bomb Outrages and murder.
Each time the police were sure he had
plotted the crime. but there was never
any evidence against him.
Costabile is held in the TOmbs in sl0,-
OOO bail on the charge OF carrying con-
Cealed weapons. The maximum penalty
for the Offense is seven years in prison.
District Attorney Whitman declared to-
night that he would make special effort

JEANNETTE FIGHTS
LANGFORD A DRAW
Scrap Ten Slashing Rounds
to No Decision.

New York, Sept. 5.-Sam Langford and
Joe Jeanette. hopes of the black race,
clashed and slugged their way through
ten bitter rounds tonight as the prin-
cipals in the second fight OF importance
in the heart OF New York City. under
the Frawley law, and at the final bell
they were locked together, still ripping
and tearing with little advantage to
either. Minus the riotous scenes OF the
Wells-BrOwn fight, the meeting OF the
hig black fellows furnished a terrific
fight from start to finish. and the 5000
men who thronged Madison Square Gar
den were in an uproar throughout 1t
was the greyhound against the bulldog.
Jeanette, tall and rangy. fought his
battle on the march, lashing out behind
him with a swapping left hand at the
round black head that followed him re-
lentlessly about the big ring. Langford,
short and squat and as shiny as a seal.
moved doggedly after his agile opponent,
using his short arms like clubs and
swinging them with the execution Of
blackjack once he got within striking
distance
The first rounds made it look but a
question Of time before Lane1ord would
knock his man kicking. but the long
armed Jeanette rallied even as he ran
and worked himself up on even terms.
In the final round Langford swung and
swung, bludgeOning Jeanette upon face
and body. but the Hoboken boy came
again when he looked about done, and
bleeding from nose and mouth and very
tired, he threw all his energy into one
last stand that earned him at the very
least a draw. Langford was also worn
out by his exertion.
These two are old-time adversaries, and
a real duel was expected. but the fight
they put up was beyond the hope of the
most sanguine.

Rev. o. E. Davis, of Washington, who
has been superintendent of the Seventh
day Adventist mission in British Guiana.
was murdered by natives while he was
carrying on evangelistic work among
them. The murder is supposed to have
occurred in the second or third week in
July
Information of the murder was received
at the headquarters of the Seventh-day
Adventists, at Takoma Park, Md, yes
terday. 1t came in the form Of a cable
gram from Rev. E. c. Boyer, of Califor-
mia, who had been sent TO succeed Mr.
Davis. The cablegram gave no details
The murdered man came originally
from somewhere in the vicinity of Seat
tie, Wash. He was in this city two years
ago attending the general conference OF
the Seventh-day Adventists. For three
years preceding his visit to Washington
he had been engaged in missionary work
among the Indians along the Demerara
River. on which Georgetown, the capital
Of British Guiana. is located. His head
quarters was established at Georgetown.
Excitement at Headquarters.
At the headquarters yesterday in Ia
SOma Park there was the keenest excite
ment on account of the news. The Sec
retary of the foreign mission board, w
a. Spicer. spoke of the great services
rendered to the church by DR.. Davis. He
said that Dr. Davis was particularly
Jealous in his work. and the headquarters
here received from time to time glowing
reports of his work in his new mission
ield.
Shortly before his death a report was
received at the headquarters from DR..
Davis that he had received an invitation
from d tribe located some distance up
the Demerara River and was Just leav-
ing in response to it. He added that it
was his intention after he had fulfilled
this mission TO penetrate a territory
where no white man heretofore had gone.
Disappearance II Mystery.
Several days ago the headquarters al
Takoma Park received a cablegram from
Georgetown stating that Mr.. Davis had
not returned from his trip to the inte-
riOr, and that fears were entertained
that he was murdered. The murdered
missionary was accompanied by his wife
when he went to British Guiana, and she
Is now in Georgetown, Guiana.
DR.. Davis and his wife would have re-
turned shortly TO the United States, as
his successor had been appointed in that
mission field. The murdered missionary
was making plans to return TO the
United States and take a course in med
iCine in one OF the Adventist colleges,
with a view of better equipping himself
for his work in the foreign mission field
The United States consul at George
town has not yet reported to the State
Department on the case.
