CASTLE WALLS
HOLD MYSTERY
OF.SYRACUSAN
WeIton 3. ostrander Disap-
peared From FeudaI Estate
With Family and Servants.

SYRACUSE, N. T.. Sept. 80
Crumbling ruins Of an unclaimed
feudal castle on arid Texas plains
and Syracusan who with his family
and servants vanished overnight
constitute a quarter-century-old mys-
terry that still is unsolved.
The castle in picturesque abandon
still flaunts its Tudor turrets in
prairie waste and Texans long since
have abandoned effort to locate Wei.
ton b. Ostrander, once its proud &C.
cupant.
Syracusans today remember o.
trander as a dandy Of thirty years
ago, who was thought to have amass-
ed a fortune here and fled after he
had been charged with conspiracy
and grand larceny. When he went
to Texas no one in Syracuse ever
heard of him again.
Fleeing before criticism and mis-
trust, Mr.. and Mrs. Ostrander estab-
lished a magnificent estate and lived
there in almost feudal magnificience,
with a large retinue Of servants. His
grounds were 30 arranged that no
one could enter the gates without
their presence becoming known
through a system of telephone wires
over the fences.
The estate is located seven miles
from Paint Rock, which derives it's
name from midland hieroglyphics
found on the stones near It. Conche
county ranchers dub the castle THE
Mystery" and the strange tale Of the
occupants who vanished overnight
Is told and retold in Texas.
For several years Ostrander dwelt
in his castle-a man apart, refusing
to mingle in that broad neighborli-
ness common TO the plains. Visitors
were not welcomed to the castle.
The ranchers rode by and wondered
what manner OF man was this, but
they never knew him-scarcely ever
saw him.
One day a stranger approached the
wide standing gates and rode in, de-
manding Texas hospitality. Doors
opened at his touch. The vast en-
trance hall resounded to his tread.
There was no answer to his loud
hellos-save the echo that went dy-
ing down the corridors.
In the dining room breakfast was
on the table untouched. Beds were
unmade and night clothes tossed on
backs of chairs. Not a sign OF hu-
man life was visible.
The mysterious baron of a desert
castle, his wife, their three children
and a large number Of servants had
vanished. There was nothing to ex-
plain their whereabouts or the rea-
son for the nocturnal flight.

.U.S.COAL STRIKE
GAVE MINERS IN.
BRITAIN WORK
"Godsend," According to Eng

Market Was Dead.
BY DAVID NJ. CHURCH.
Internal tionaI News Service.

LONDON, Sept. 30.-It's an i'll
wind that blows nobody good. and
while the American coal strike may
have been an Ill breeze for the United
States 1t blew close to $4,000, 900 Of
good American money into England.
THE American coal strike was a
godsend to the English miners, "
according to Herbert Smith, leader
of the English Miners Federation.
Demands for British coal, which
came as the result Of the American
strike, have put the coal industry in
England on its feet and miners have
had their first full weeks of work for
more than a year. A winter that
threatened the utmost poverty does
not look as black now as II did during
the early summer months and there
are no longer grave fears Of economic
suffering among British miners.
Big Orders Filled.
When the American strike ended
there had been more than 100000
tons of British coal shipped to the
United States and Canada since the
early days Of August During Sep
tciIlDcT lntFo WtIC OVU,VVV lOhS iiiol z
shipped, and II Is believed that the
demand for coal from America will
not subside until we'll into the winter
months. The future contracts have
fallen off considerably since the end
OF the American strike, but even now
the demand is far above the pre-war
normal
Market Was Dead.
The continental market has been
practically closed to the British trade
because of the rates Of exchange.
German buyers have been unable TO
buy at all and French and Italian
buyers have been scarce.
Tho English householder will prob
ably not feel the effects Of the
American demands upon the domes-
tic coal market, because America has
been getting only that coal which
usually goes to the continent. How
ever, there has been An increase in
the price OF household coal Of about
20 per cent, but II Is explained that
this Is the usual season increase.
Probably one effect Of the Ameri-
can strike has been an increase in
the demands from the United States
and Canada for British iron. In Sep.
tember orders had been reCeived for
more than 100000 tons OF foundry
iron for export 10 America.
Altogether the American strike
promises TO prove a big boon to
English industrial conditions.
