ESTRADA SENDS MESSAGE President of Southern Jtepuhlic Would Ko--Mabll-li Friendly de lations, and Suggests Plan for Paying All Claims. WASHINGTON. Sept. 12. A definite programme for the establishment of a stable government in Nicaragua and for the financial rejuvenation of the country was set before the American Government today f.Tr Its approval, in njent ilTspat long iITspatch from Provisional Presl- dent i-trada. which Senor Salvatore Castrillo. Nicaraguan representative in Washington, presented to Huntington Wilson. Assistant Secretary of Slnte. First of all 'resident Estrada wishes to re-establish friendly relations with the United States. He suggests that the American Gov ernment arpoint a high commissioner to visit Nicaragua, one with full pow ers to negotiate. If necessary, a treaty covering all the claims which the I'nited Slates now has against Nic aragua. orfers Made to Pity Claims. These include the claim for indem- nity for the execution of the Ameri cans. Groce and Lannon. ana tne Kmerv claim. The Nicaraguan govern ment desires to settle these claims and to get money to pay them. President Kstrada expressed his desire to nego tiate a loan which would be guaran teed by the setting nside of one per cent of Nicaragua's customs receipts. in the matter of re-establishing the government of Nicaragua on a firmer basis, the president stated that a con stitutional convention would be called, probably the latter part of this month or the fore part of October, to rec ognize him as provisional president and to fix a date "on which a National election should be held. Situation Is Discussed. Senator Castrillo. representing the Estrada government, had a long con ference today Willi Mr. Dawson, the retiring thief of the Latin-American Bureau, regarding Nicaraguan affairs generally. Judging from the experience of the Cubans, it might fairly be expected that the election of an assembly and the enactment of laws by that body providing for the presidential election would consume a period of six months and an equal length of time would be required for the election Itself- and the Inauguration of the new perma nent president. It is expected that within a few days Estrada will issue decrees providing for the election of a constituent assembly as the initial step. ALL THREE CLAIM VICTORY (I'omlnued From First T'jge.) ar in the race. Stanton Warburton and Maurice Langhorne, the latter a Demo crat. Warburton particularly has been mak ing an agirresKive campaign. Charles Claypool. of Olympia. has a large num ber of friends in Pierce County, has been maintaining headquarters here for a couple of weeks and his friends have been working hard In the hustle for votes. Representative W. W. McC'redie. who seeks re-election, has also many friends in Pierce, but has devoted less time to campaigning in this county than any of his opponents. Estimates are that in this district, the second. 20.000 to 25.000 rotes will be cast for Representative, and of these 40 per cent, will be cast by Pierce Coun ty. Some prophets predict that 7500 will name the nominee tomorrow. -The last time he ran. the late W. F. Cusli nien received l?.bl2 votes. Warburton la confident he will carry Pierce County. McCredle will get a good many Ashton votes, on the theory that the southwest is entitled to a Rep resentative, if Tacoma gets a Senittor. In the Senatorial situation, the gen eral consensus of- opinion tonight Is that Ashton will easily carry Pierce County, with Poindexter second and Judge Burke a poor last. Ashton man agers are claiming that 80 to 90 per cent of the Pierce County vote will be cast for the Tacoma candidate. "A vote for Ashton is a vote for Tacoma," has been the slogan throughout, especially this week, and the Importance of hav ing a Tacoma man in the Senate has been repeatedly brought before the people. The campaign was brought to a close tonight with a big rally at the Tacoma Theater, addressed by Mr. Ashton and prominent citizens. Poindexter's friends in Tacoma are equally sanguine and are freely claim ing tonight that he will carry Pierce County tomorrow by about 5000 vote. They are relying a great deal on the strength of the "insurgent" movement. Poindexter has been devoting consider able attention to this city and has had the support of a local Scrippa paper, which has literally "gone the limit" for him. There have been Ashton rallies and Poindexter rallies, but no Burke meetings have been held In Tacoma at all. although Judge Burke has made an occasional visit here. Pierce County lies entirely between Ashton and Poindexter. Two years ago. on the Senatorshlp. Tacoma gave Snell 3616 votes, Jones 1289 and Ankeny lUO. The city registration for tomorrow's election is approximately 16,000. COLFAX REGISTKATIOX LIGHT Small Vole Expected as Farmers Are Busy Hauling; 'Wheat. COLFAX. Wash.. Sept. 12. (Special.)

RUMOR IS GIVEN CREDENCE YVilh Death or Solicitor-General I.oncrs, "asel. Who Cunics From J)islrict Now Unrepresented, Is Logical Candidate. WASHINGTON. Sept. 12. The name of Clmrlea Nagel. Secretary of. Commerce and Labor, has replaced that of the lato Solicitor-Oencrfil Bowers In the gossip of Washington on the expected appoint mcnts to the present and prospective vacancies in the Supreme Court. More apparent substance if) given to tho mention of Mr. Js'aeel because he hails from the eighth circuit, which al though It embraces 13 states, west of the Mississippi, has been, without a rep resentative on the Supreme Bench sinca the death of Jnstlce Brewer. With tho death of -Mr. Bowers, the rumors re garding Mr. Nagel become decidedly worthy of attention. Secretary Nagel was born in Texas in 149, but has lived In Misurl nearly all his life. Part of his education was re- reived in German universities. In the lMct few years he has been prominent tn politics, having been an active member of the Republican National committee in the , campaign of 1908. At times he has) neen mentionea ror ino Lnuea oitnes Senate.

It would still leave vacant the chief justiceship, for this position, it said, tlie President has in mind Governor Hughes, of New York. 4 m ARE SUSPECTED PETKCTIVI.S HAVK CLFAV TO ALASKAN GOLD ROBBERS. Ol'icers Believe Bullion Was Stolen Soon ATter Yukon Steamer Left Fairbanks. SKATTLE, Sept. 12. Detectives work ing on tlie $57,500 express robbery, are proceeding on the theory that the gold was stolen soon after the steamer car rying it left Fairbanks on August 20. Suspicion rests on four men, who are under surveillance at Fairbanks but have not been arrested. The suspected men are a clerk in the AVashlngton-Alaska Bank of Fairbanks, a relief of tlie purser of the steamer Tanana. and two miners. No arrests will be made until more evidence is obtained. The use of the duplicate bank seal on the boxes by the robbers gave the detectives the first clew. This, with evidence gathered against the clerk, leads the agents to believe that an employe of the Tanana, who had acted as a relief for the purser, was "fixed" and permitted the two miners to enter the private compartments in which the treasure was stored. Bv means of a jimmy, it is believed, they pried off tlie iron band protect ing the seals, removed the end of the box. extracted the gold, and substi tuted the leadin its place. Tlie seal, wires and band were then replaced and the seal and wax of the bank dup licated. .Immediately after tlie boat landed at Tanana the two miners left for the hills, where, they told acquaintances, they intended to hunt. They have not been seen since. The Alaska Pacific Express Company Jisclaims any responsibility for the loss of the gold, alleging that tlie boxes were accepted by them at Dawson and delivered to the assay office exactly as received. If tlie gold is not recovered a lawsuit will be necessary to settle the responsibility. The Alaska Com pany maintains that the boxes must have been rifled before reaching Daw son. The Humboldt ' Steamship Company, which in 12 years has carried $15,000. 000 from Skngway to Seattle without loss of a penny, insists that the gold was not stolen on the Humboldt. It is expected that the thieves will ultimately be caught when they try to dispose of the bars. Tanana gold has Its own color, and can be readily Iden tified. Any attempt to sell the stolen bars in Alaska or Seattle would be fatal to the thieve, and every mint and assay office in the United States will be on the lookout for Tanana gold that Is offered. SUMRTER BLOCK IS BURNED Only Heroic Work of Men and Wom en Saves City. SUMPTEH. Or., Sept. 12. A disas trous fire broke out here at 7 o'clock Sunday morning, which, in its earlier stages, threatened the destruction of the whole city. Most of the block of buildings bounded by Mill. Center.

TABLECLOTH HIDES GHOST Foreigner Docs Marathon After Grabbing It From House. PITTSBURG. Sept. 12. Trailing be hind him a snow-white tablecloth and racing madly for his home, where his reconciled wife awaited him, Joseph Riznuck of Muriel street, South Side, was arrested last evening:- by Patrol man James Coen. Running- close be hind him came Edward Winters of 114 South Sixteenth street, who de clared that Riznuck had snatched the cover from his dinner table, which had been set for tlie evening meal. Riznuck and his wife had been sepa rated. Yesterday they effected a recon ciliation. Riznuck wanted to do up a little love feast in the grandest pos sible style and with the best manner of appointments, even if he had to wreck a neighbor's dinner table to do it. The Winters famiily sat reading newspapers around the house await ing the call td dinner. On the snow white table cover stood a bounteous feed with all the correct table ap pointments. Poor Riznuck. no longer estranged from his better half, peeped inside and instantly determined to transfer the table setting to his own household. He did not get far. The big policeman thought it was a ghost until he saw Riznuck behind the flar ing white table coyer. Burns Soon to Have Railroad. BEND. Or., Sept. 12. K. K.
