Guards Who Attempt to Protect the Treasure Are Shot Dead and Assailants Escape With Weapons. GREAT SENSATION SPRUNG WAS NEGOTIATED Dead Executive Is Denounced as Traitor for Trying to Bar ter Away National Territory. GUAYAQUIL. Ecuador, July 28. The government newspapers have caused a sensation here by the publication of doc uments found among ex-President Gar- eta's private papers. A document found treats of the sale of the Galapagos Islands to the United States. It appears that the islands were first offered to France. Senor Garcia's memorandum says: While In Washington I visited Presi dent Roosevelt and Inquired into the ques tion whether the United States was dis posed to take over the Galapagos Islands, paying Ecuador $5000 In gold for them, thus recognizing Ecuador's sovereignty over the islands. Mr. Roosevelt replied that he would recommend the proposal to Congress, and was sure it would he ac cepted, offering to appoint the American Minister to continue the negotiations in Quito. "A few days later Joseph W. Lee, the American Minister to Ecuador, arrived in Ecuador." It appears that the Alvaro revolution, which resulted in the overthrow of Senor Garcia, ended the negotiations. The offi cial papers call Garcia and his Ministers traitors for trying to sell part of the na tional territory. The negotiations with France are said to have been interrupted owing to the belief that the United States would not consent to a European power acquiring the islands. A meeting was called at Quito, the capital, last night to protest against this action taken by Senor Gar cia and his Ministers. The Galapagos Islands are a group in the Pacilic belonging to Ecuador, on and near the Equator, 730 miles west of the coast of Ecuador. They consist of 13 Islands, the largest, Albemarle Island, be ing 60 miles in length. On Charles Island a small colony of Ecuadorians was established, forming a penal settlement, and this island contains most of the population, which hardly exceeds 400. SECRETARY ROOT IX BRAZIL Head of State Department Discusses Pan-American Affairs. RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, July 28. (Special.) The feature of the visit of Secretary of State Root to the Brazilian capital was his reception this afternoon by the Brazilian officials, the diplomatic corps, the delegates to the Pan-American Congress and members of the Brazilian Congress. Theer was a crush of members of the American colony, Brazilian, diplomats and) leaders of Brazilian society. Mr. Root, in replying to the speech of wel come by a delegation from Parliament, said: "You speak of me as the interpreter of a policy. My visit here is for the inter pretation of the policy of my country. That is why I am here." After the speeches the party retired to the pavilion in the palace grounds, where the reception became most infor mal. There was no session . of the Pan American Congress today. Incidentally It was announced that Mr. Root is to be tendered a reception by the Brazilian Congress, an unprecedented honor for the Congress to pay a foreign statesman. Tonight Mr. Root was the guest of honor at a dinner tendered by Baron Rio De Brans. Minister of Foreign Affairs. There was a brilliant company present and toasts were responded to by many of the high officials in attendance. Earlier in the. day Mr. Root conferred with the American delegates to the con ference, the principal matter under dis cussion being the so-called Drago doc trine, which opposes the collection from the South and the Central American gov ernments of private debts by force. Chili opposes part of this proposal and it is likely to cause trouble in the conference. The conference between Mr. Root and the Brazilian Foreign Minister yesterday Is still the subject of much comment, but so far no statement regarding it has been vouchsafed. Because Uruguay has intimated that she would not like to have Secretary Root visit her borders on an Argentine warship the Invitation extended by Ar gentina to have the American use one of that nation's war vessels has been de clined with thanks 'and Mr. Root will continue his Journey from here on the United States cruiser Charleston. RUSSIAN CITIES ARE QUIET Jews at Kieff Have Made Elaborate Plans to Repulse Advances. ST. PETERSBURG, July 29. (Spe cial.) Although certain of the officials had feared trouble in some of the larger cities Saturday, Moscow especially, all niylces received Indicate that the day fased off very quietly and that there were no outbreaks of a serious charac ter, except at Warsaw, where the rev olutionists have banded together for organized robbery. Religious processions in connection with the feast of St. Vladimir were held in every city and town throughout Rus sia, but the authorities had taken elab orate precautions to guard against any trouble and consequently none oc curred. In Kieff a massacre of Jews had been predicted but none occurred. In fact that city was even more quiet than was St. Petersburg, and it is said that not an arrest had to be made. The Jews had taken elaborate precautions to ward off attacks. They were prepared to guard their homes, but they had nothing to do. Up to the present time the govern ment seems to have complete command of the situation and the disappointment over the dissolution of the Douma is gradually disappearing. In fact matters were never sc good, at least on the surface, as at present and the outlook promises well for a long peace. The revolutionists, apparently, have decided that their organization Is not strong enough to undertake a general uprising and as isolated outbreaks are easily put down, it has been decided to permit affairs to continue as they are until a successful revolution can be as sured. Italian Left Exhorts Douma. ROME. July IS. The members of the Chamber of Deputies belonging to the MITCHELL BOOM 15 SPRUNG HEAD OP MINEWOKKERS NAMED FOR VICE-PRESIDENT. Desire of Unions to Go Into Politics Likely to Make Him Bryan's Running Mate. CHICAGO, July 28. (Special.) The spe cial correspondent of the Evening Post at Indianapolis writes that paper as fol lows concerning the recent mention of John Mitchell as a possible Vice-Presidential candidate on the Democratic Na tional ticket: "Although Mr. Mitchell, as president of the United Mineworkers of America, has usually been too busy to deny any rumors that had to do with his possible part in politics, his Western friends are surprised that he has made no effort to kill off the boom for the Vice-Presidential nom ination which was started in the anthra cite coal districts some time ago. "The cry of 'Bryan and Mitchell which has been heard in many sections, may be heard in others. Now that the American Federation of Labor and the United Mineworkers of America have decided to go into politics to bring about reforms that both organizations believe are due to organized labor, they will look over their own ranks first to pick out the available timber for public office. If or ganized labor is determined to capture the chair of the presiding officer of the Sen ate, thereby placing a mat on the thresh old of the White House, why should not this man be John Mitchell? Indeed he seems to be the logical candidate of labor. "No labor leader is more favorably known to the country generally than Mitchell, and his champions declare he would he as strong with the people out side the union ranks as among those within. Although this seems to be a strange statement, Mitchell's history Jus tifies it. He has consistently fought the socialistic movement and in the three Na tional conventions of miners it was his influence that prevented the organization from wavering and partly committing It self to socialism. The socialists regard Mitchell as their arch enemy, and have sent their delegates to the convention time and again to counteract his influ ence. But this has always failed. "Mitchell is also known as a conserva tive. He has been in the limelight many years, but this has not turned his head, lie has kept on making friends, and of course a few enemies, and some of the latter are in his own organization. Should Mitchell become a Vice-Presidential possi bility, he would he the target for the National Association of Manufacturers and all its allied bodies. He stands well with the farmers of the West. "Miners of Indiana, Illinois and Ohio have not yet put men forward for Con gressional nominations. Mitchell could have had the Democratic nomination for Congress in the Joliet district of Illinois, in which is Spring Valley, his home, but when it was offered he was so deeply submerged in the fight with the anthracite and .bituminous operators that he had no time to consider It except to decline the office. PORTLAND . SENIORS WIN (Continued from First Page.) men of the city will assist them in de fraying the expenses of' the long trip, The club is not financially able Itself Just at present to send these men back, but will need outside aid. Aside from the great prestige such an entry would give Portland is the fact that this crew which yesterday won so handily from the best crew in West Can ada has in practice beaten the world's record time of 8:15 2-5, made over a mile and a half course by the Winnipeg Boat Club, in 1S96. Dan Murphy trained this Winnipeg crew, and it was under his hand that they set a new world's mark. He has also trained this Portland crew and before he left for the north said he had a better crew than that which made the record. So much for Portland's chances against the best from Eastern boat clubs. President R. W. Wilbur, of the Port land Rowing Club, is at Nelson with the crew. The directors telegraphed him last night of their decision to send the oars men East, and asked advice from Coach Murphy whether they should return to Portland before leaving for the Worces ter regatta, or go direct from Nelson. A reply is expected today. Should the crew decide to return home before leaving for the East, they will probably arrive Wednesday morning. INNOCENT MAN IS HELD (Continued from First Pace.) the money which circumstances forced me to ODiain si any ciwu Very respeetf ully, tSigned)' JEAN DE LARMO. Confession Believed Genuine. While the possibility exists that the let ter was mailed by friends of the accused man, this la not regarded by the Federal authorities as probable. No one has seemed to befriend Stone in the past Furthermore, he la not regarded as belng- any too shrewd, and a coup of this kind from such a source is thought improba ble. The wording of the letter seems genuine throughout, and the Federal au thorities believe that Jonn De Larmo is the man they are looking for to till the cell now occupied by young Stone- There is every probability that the ac cused man will be liberated. Stone's arrest was effected by Acting Detective Burke. Burke thought he had the right man. knowing Stone's bad rec ord. Sandefer's subsequent Identification of Stone appeared to settle the matter. In the event Stone's Innocence is es tablished 'beyond the question of a doubt by the arrest of the real offender. Sande for may have some trouble with his con science for his positive identification of an innocent man as a desperate criminal. NEW YORK, July 28.-John D. Rocke feller was a passenger on board the steamer Amerika, which arrived from Hamburg today. Mr. Rockefeller was not to be seen on the arrival of the Amerika at quarantine.

Mr. Rockefeller SMILE OF A FUTURE KING OF THE SI A KINGS. Crown Prince Olnf. The young Crown Prince of Nor way is the most popular member of the new royal family. He was taken into the hearts of his future subjects on the day of his arrival. The stories of his pranks at Trondh Jem occupied nearly as much space in the newspapers as the account of the coronation ceremonies. greeted a group of newspaper men with a smile, but in reply to questions said he had nothing to say about the warrant which was Issued at Findlay for his ar rest on a charge of violating the Valen tine anti-trust law. "I cannot talk now." he said. Mr. Rockefeller made the same reply to a question whether there is any truth in a report that he has taken no active part In the affairs of the Standard Oil Com pany for 12 years. When asked how he liked France, he said he would not com pare it to America at all. After posing for his photograph at the request of a reporter and greeting several friends, Mr. Rockefeller, accompanied by Mrs. Rocke feller and his son, left the steamship dock- in an automobile. Mr. Rockefeller appeared to be in ex cellent health and spirits. He said he had enjoyed his stay In France to the fullest extent, but that he was very glad to get back home again. Despite a rapid fire of questions directed at him by a score or more of newspaper men, Mr. Rockefeller evaded all replies to questions put to him relating to the Standard Oil Company and the warrant which had been issued for his apprehension Mr. Rockefeller and his party were the last passengers to land from the steamer. As he was leaving his stateroom Mr. Rockefeller was met by reporters. After a few minutes' talk with his son, John D.. Jr., on one side and Dr. Bigger on the other, the Standard Oil magnate proceed ed down the gangplank and off the pier, followed by a crowd of several persons, who were awaiting to get a glimpse of him. On the way out Mr. Rockefeller met several men and women he knew and stopped, shook hands and exchanged a word or two. "Do you consider yourself directly or indirectly responsible for any violations on the part of the Standard Oil Company of the anti-trust laws?" Mr. Rockefeller was asked, as he entered an automobile for the trip over to New York. "Please excuse me from saying any thing in this direction," he replied, with a broad smile. As Mr. Rockefeller was leaving in the automobile with his wife and son. Dr. Biggar shook, hands -with him and they expressed the hope that they might see each other in a day or two.

ATLANTA, Ga., July 28. (Special.) After an absence of 42 years, three of which were spent in the service of the Confederate army and tne subsequent 39 in a Northern penitentiary, where he was serving a life sentence for murder, An derson Pittman, 65 years of age, has re turned to Georgia to find his wife the widow of another man. It is the pathetic story of a second Enoch Arden. She waited and waited for him from whom she parted as a young bride, and when he did not return after she heard that he was killed in the battle of Chick amauga, she mourned him as dead. With the report of his death the letters that had been coming to her regularly ceased, and this confirmed hec fears.

' CHEFOO, July 28. Lieutenant Clar ence England, navigation officer of the United States cruiser Chattanooga, was wounded at about noon today by a rifle bullet fired by a member of the crew of the French armored, cruiser Dubltil Thouars, and died at 6 o'clock this even ing. The Chattanooga, with Lieutenant Eng land, on the bridge, was proceeding from the harbor to the target range. Just out side, and was passing the French squad ron,, which was anchored near the Amer ican squadron, and was engaged in small arms' practice. The Chattanooga, after several bullets had struck the side of the ship, signalled to the Frenchmen to cease firing, but before this was accom plished Lieutenant England was struck in the back at the base of the spine, probably by a ricochet bullet, which left his body under the arm. The crew of the DuDetit Thouars later continued its practice from the deck of the cruiser: Their fire was directed at targets in the water, differing from the American practice of landing men on a barren island at the entrance of the har bor. The French squadron here consists of nine ships, and the American of seven. England an Arkansan. WASHINGTON, July 28.

WARSAW, July 28. Two daring train robberies were committed in Russian Po land today, one of them resulting in a considerable loss of life. A train from the frontier station of Herby, bound for Czentociiowa, was carrying money re ceived from the Custom-House to the branch Imperial bank under protection of seven frontier guardsmen. General Zukat, chief of the frontier guards; General Wel tering and Captain Laguma were passen gers. Fifteen persons boarded the train at a way station.- They evidently had been waiting for It, and made an attack on the guardsmen, who were reinforced by the officers named. A regular skirmish followed, in which the two Generals, two officials, five soldiers and one robber were killed and Colonel Brezezikl and one rob ber wounded. The wounded and dead were taken to Czenstochowa. The robbers escaped, taking J8000 and the arms of those who had attempted to de fend the train against robbers. 'The second robbery was committed to night on the Warsaw-Vienna Railway, six miles from' Warsaw. While the train was under way unknown persons pulled the danger signal, causing it to stop. Rob bers who were aboard jumped out and seized the locomotive and detached the mallear from the train and ran it down the line. They secured $37,600 of govern ment money. The robbers were fully Informed, evident ly, that the train had the money on board. They carried red flags and are supposed to be members of the Polish Socialist party. The train was without a guard, and hence there was no fighting and no casualties. Efforts to capture the robbers failed. The robber who was wounded at Czen stochowa is in a serious condition. He re fused to give any information whatever concerning his accomplices. Public disorder is growing daily throughout-Russian Poland? Today a panic oc curred in a public park here. Many shots were fired and one person was killed and four wounded. It is believed to have been an attempt by revolutionary agents to cause a panic. GENERAL STRIKE IS FEARED Knssian Lower Classes Preparing for Widespread Uprising. ST. PETERSBURG, July 28. It is' evident that the proletariat organiza tions' refusal to accept the challenge at this time upon grounds of the Gov ernment's choosing does .not mean that it is not their intention to give bat tle later. Indeed, the proletariat or ganizations, backed by all the political, parties, including the Group of Toil, Social Revolutionists, ' Socialists " and the Peasant League, have thrown themselves into the campaign of agi tation for a simultaneous general strike, to be followed by a rising in the cities and the country. Although the time Is not propitious for the peasantry, as the country is in the midst of the harvest season, the leaders believe a month or six weeks at most will suffice for this, and confidently expect that their cam paign will be aided by the universal repressions to which the Government will be compelled to resort In Its policy of open warfare against revolution. ' The Constitutional Democrats are holding aloof, fearing co throw in their lot with their former allies, yet they are ready, if the masses rise and the Government fails, to seize the use of the victory. 1 . Premier Stolypln evidently Is sincere and honest In his desire to inaugurate a policy of "strong-handed reform," but the best evidence that he is not master of the situation In his vain appeal for co-operation to "men like Count M- Heydon, M. Shlpoff and Prince Lvoff, who have seen too many well-intentioned ministers broken on the wheel when they decline to con form to the policy ditatp by the court cabal. The fighting organization of the So cial Revolutionists, which declared a truce while Parliament was in ses sion, ha3 decided to reopen the cam paign of -intrigue and terrorism. Its work will be supplemented by a sim ilar "fighting organization," recently formed among the Social Democrats. Over a million copies of a manifesto to the Army, Navy, peasants and work men, which was adopted yesterday and already printed at Viborg and St. Petersburg, have been started in to the interior through underground rev-, olutionary channels. It is learned that almost the deter mining factor of the postponement of a rising was the Information that many fresh troops who have been introduced into St. Petersburg and Moscow were strangers to the revolutionary propa ganda, having been . carefully selected for this reason. FIGHTING PARTIES WILD REPLY Douma Members Predict Bomb throwing and Revolt. . BERLIN, July 28. The Russian Cor respondence News, a syndicate working in opposition to the Russian Govern ment, has distributed to the Berlin press an account of a conversation one of its promoters had with Messrs. Rod itcheff, Ostrogorski, Swetschim and Professor Kovalevsky, members of the outlawed Russian Parliament, who at tended the conference of the Inter Parliamentary Union in London and who on their way back to Russia stopped here to change trains. The Russians took a hopeful view of the situation. M. Roditcheff said that it was only the beginning, the Spring in the development of Russian liberty. "But," said the Interviewer, "Is not the quiet with -which the dissolution of Parliament was received by the Russian people a bad indication?" Not at all," replied M. Roditcheff. "The answer will be given by the fighting parties. They will return to the argument) of bombs and the peas ants will refuse to pay taxes and will resort to uprisings. Only a few weeks, perhaps a couple of months, will elapse before an organized opposition will break out. Premier Stolypln himself, if he has any real intention of govern ing without the use of force alone, will find that he must reckon with the demands of the people as a Parlia ment." ,' M. Roditcheff, who did most of the talking for the party. said he regarded M. Stolypin as a bureaucrat, not se lected by the Emperor alone, but put forward by others. From the style of M. Stol.vpin's manifesto, he believed' M. .Pobidqnostseff, who . was Proeurator- fej "I HEARTILY : -"w I RECOMMEND PE-RU-NA." - J 1 - f J S I - I S i 'l. 11 ksgJ Prof. Barry Bulkley, a graduate of Amherst College, and for a long period professor of Elocution and Oratory at Emerson Institute, is a lec turer of National reputation, having filled various prominent positions. He writes from Washington, D. C. : 'Peruna la Indispensable for all orators and public speakers, a sure care for colds and hoarseness. I heartily recommend It to those who have use for their vocal powers.9 WHO can know so well as an orator what an orator needs? Who has made such a severe test of the virtues of Peruna as the public speaker who has been called upon day and night to exert his vocal organs to the fullest extent before large au diences? Such a man knows what he Is talk ing about. No severer test could be applied to any catarrh medicine. Professor Bulkley, one of the finest orators in the land, is a most indefati gable public speaker. He is also a friend of Peruna, because he understands its value, both as a pre ventive and a relief THE VALUES OF PE-RU-NA TO ORATORS. to all forms of hoarseness, sore throat and catarrh of the vocal organs. Many others have had the same experience as Professor Bulkley. Mrs. J. A. Baker, 380 Locust Ave., Amsterdam, N. T., writes: "Four years ago I lost my voice, so that I was unable to speak above a whisper for seven weeks. "I read some circulars in regard to Peruna. I bought a bottle at once and took it In teaspoonful doses every hour, and In two days I could talk. I will never be without it," General of the Holy Synod, had a hand In Its composition. The Russians seemed to fear that Germany Intended to Intervene by force In the affairs of Russia in support of the Emperor's Government, but they were assured that there was not the slightest basis for any apprehension on the subject, as no German statesman, as was claimed, would take the respon sibility for such a step, owing to the attitude of the German people. TELEGRAPH WIRES ARE CUT No Communication Between Capital and Provinces. ST. PETERSBURG, July 28. M. Sedel ntkoff, the Radical Cossack, member of the outlawed Lower House of Parliament, who was arrested and beaten while In the hands of the police July 4, which caused a stormy scene In the House the next day, was today fined $250 for carry ing a revolver which was found on him when arrested. The switchboard of the Central Tele graph station in St. Petersburg was burned out today, destroying all com munication with the provinces. While there is a suspicion that the "accident" was arranged by revolutionists, no evi dence to support it can be found, and the telegraph department authorities are apparently satisfied with the explana tion of the employes. However, the pub lic is cut off from telegraph communica tion with the interior for some time, but the government retains the possibility of communicating with the provincial au thorities over the railroad wires. Cable communication Is not affected". Near the village of Chernipoff, a de tachment of dragoons, sent to arrest two agitators, was met by a crowd of peasants armed with scythes, rakes and pitchforks. In the fight which followed five peasants were filled and 12 dragoons were wounded, three of them fatally. At Kazan, the Black Hundreds "are terrorizing the Intelligentia and Jews with threats of an uprising. Many houses have been marked with crosses, and the Jews are seeking safety in flight. Yesterday's improvement on the Bourse here was not sustained today. A flood of offerings on the advance resulted in a reaction in the whole list, but prices at the close were firm. Imperial 4s closed at 72H and 5s at 84. The ukase providing for the dissolution of Parliament has been ordered to be read before the troops of all the garrisons In Russia. . STOLTPIN'S SCHEME FAILS. Leaders of People Refuse Aid. Throws Sops to Liberals. ST. PETERSBURG, July 28. New obstacles have been encountered by Premier Stolypin in his efforts to se cure the services In a reorganized Cab inet of men of standing in Russia out side of official life. The conditions laid down by M. Guchkoff and Prince Lvoff are understood to have been rejected, and they have definitely refused to enter the Ministry. This presages the practical shipwreck of the entire scheme, since without the participation of the lion bureaucratic elements, it would be diffi cult to convince even the Conservatives, much less the Liberals, of the sincerity of the government's promises. Meanwhile. M. Stolypln is energetically and continually tnying to persuade the country that his policy of "strong-handed reform" does not Involve reaction.
