Haunted" Duck Is Killed From the New York Sun.

Burlingame, CaL-Hunters may now pursue their sport on the marshes of San Francisco bay; without fear, for tho haunted" duck has been slain.
 It got it's quietus from Walter Ta- Der, a professional market hunter, and Taber Is confident that he would not be alive to tell of his adventure had he not taken .the precaution before going out of the marches to take his lucky ducks bill" with him.
 The duck. according to Taber. seemed to flirt with him. It was the first bird he had come upon while In his skiff off south San Francisco. Taber shot at it once or twice. but instead of winging away the eccentric fowl would settle again impudently within .tange. Finally Taber. irritated. fired both bar rels and the duck surrendered. While trying to get the prize Taber lost both oars. and then. without duck or oars. began to drift helplessly. Seven hours he drifted. but just at dusk off Eurl- ingame fishermen. John Feryari. sighted the boat and put out two miles to rescue Tabor. bringing him back in his gasoline launch. -5 <

ENGLAND READY TO
DISCUSS RELIEF
Although She Has Not Relinquished Her
Right to Search Neutral Ships Any
where on the High Seas.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 9.-Secretary
Bryan and other administration officials
were at work to-day, going over Great
Britain's preliminary reply to the Amer
lean note protesting against interference
with commerce. Until the presidents re-
turn late to-day, however, all the officials
absolutely refused to comment upon it..
That is to say, the officials regard the
British position as conciliatory and, while
Great Britain has not yielded any of the
substantial claims which she has assert
ed in regard to the right of search of
neutral ships anywhere on the high seas,
the London foreign office has shown a
disposition TO discuss in friendly spirit
any means suggested by the American
government looking toward an ameliora
tion of the hardships which the right Of
search imposes upon ship owners, 1t
was pointed out by the officials that this
is one of the main purposes Of the
American protest, for the state depart
mcnt conceded the right OF search to the
British, but objected to the manner in
which it was conducted.
