A London Times special to the New York Times says: Referring to the fresh outbreak of Anglophobia in Vienna, a corres pondent of the Austrian Capital quotes the especially influential Cath olic organ, The Vaterland, which publishes an artiole headed : "Lord Kitchener as a Hangman." . It says the commmander-in-chief of the British forces in South Africa, in despair of being able to conquer the Boers by honest war, has for a long time had recourse to brutality. . His bloodthirstyness was formerly re strained by the British government, but it now appears that a free hand has been given to him. : The Vaterland goes on to. say that the announcement that Command ant General Botha will meet violence by reprisals will convince all that the Boers are not intimidated, but only exasperated by Lord Kitchener's in humanity. The sanguinary seed sown by the British Commander will pro duce a harvest of blood and none can blame the Boer leaders if they have recourse to a terrible tribution. Martial Law Regulation!.

Griivtd Over His -Approaching Separation From Army Life. Salt Lake, Oct. 23. Grief over sep aration from army life, with which he had been associated for 40 years, and to which he was greatly attached, is believed to have been the direct cause of the suicide at Fort Douglas of August Lange, ordnance sergeant. Lange was to have been retired with in a few days, and rather than re-enter civil life he hanged himself in one of the buildings of the fort. Lange, who was 61 years of age, enlisted at the outbreak of the civil war, partici pating in many of its historic battles, and was wounded during the battle of Spottsylvania. In later years he took part in numerous campaigns against Western Indians, and for the past 15 years has been ordnance sergeant at Fort Douglas. He left a widow and two grown daughters, who reside in this city. GREAT DISCOVERY. On Arc Lamp With Microphone Attachment Will Transmit Sounds Through Another. St. Petersburg, Oct. 23. A member of the faculty of Moscow Imperial Technical school recently discovered that a microphone attached to an elec tric lamp by wire will transmit sounds through the medium of another arc lamp. Repeated experiments were made in which the two lamps were separated by a thick wall.

SHOT BY THE TURKS MACEDONIAN FUGITIVES KILLED ON THE FRONTIER. One of Them, a Brother of Mme. Tillka, Miss Stone's Companion The Bulgarian Government Prepared' to Act Vigorously If; Sufficient Proof Is Forthcoming Tnrkish Methods Brutal. London, Oct. 24. The Morning .Leader publishes the following com munication, dated Saturday, Oct., 19' trom Hoha: "On the frontier near Grossbeloo, yesterday, five fugitives from Banista, Macedonia, among them a brother of Mme.l8iIka,Miss Stone a companion, were shot dead by Turkish frontier guards while eneavoring to cross into Bulgarian territory. United States Consul General Dickinson, believing that they were members of the Amer ican Mission church, has demanded an official inquiry. Great brutality exists in the district between Banista and the frontier, Turkish officials have arrested over 200 residents ol Bulgarian nationality and subjected them to torture in order to wring from them information as to Miss Stone's whereabouts. Several of them died under torture. The Bulgarian authorities, llikewise, worried over the affair, are continuously arresting fugitives from Macedonia, and this causes bad blocrtl." "It is reported from Sofia, " says the Vienna correspondent of the Daily Mail, "that United States Consul General Dickinson has received intel ligence from shepherds that Miss tone was seen atJJ akooua, in Turkish territory, about two hours' journey from the Bulgarian frontier." Dr. Dickinson thinks that if the original Macedonian promoters of the abduction can be arrested, the brig ands who acted under their orders would accept a smaller ransom. As the Bulgarian government are pre pared to act vigorously if sufficient proof is forthcoming, says the Vienna correspondent of the Times, this method of proceeding may perhaps prove" successful. HAD NARROW ESCAPE. Mine Superintendent's Dwelling Partially De stroyed by Miscreant. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Oct. 23. A das tardly attempt to blow up the house of Reese Morgan, superintendent of the Murray mine,and kill himself and family was made last night. Mr. Morgan's home was on Grant street, one of the residence thoroughfares of this city. He had just opened the gate to get into the house when a terrific explosion occurred which nearly knocked him off his feet. When he was able to collect himself he saw that a portion of his dwelling had been wrecked. A further inves tigation showed that the whole rear portion of the house had been torn away by the explosion. The general supposition is that some mine em ploye who formerly worked for Mr. Morgan; and who imagined he had a grievance, is at the bottom of the plot. . Valuable Library Sold. New York, Oct. 23.

Acting under additional information from the governor of the province of Sa mara, the minister of the interior has officially proclaimed famine condi tions in five more districts iuJlhis province. This means that the bad harvest has already mado itself so keenly felt that a special medical and relief organization is deemed neces-' sary for these districts. It is likely that the list will be added to from time to time during the winter. The minister also published today a detailed report about the relief given to seven Siberian districts. . Forty thousand roubles were assigned. The present indications are that little in formation about the famine will be published in Russian papers which is not given out by the minister of the interior. The papers have been given to understand that incorrect informa tion or "colored" articles about the famine will not be tolerated, and the Russian editors know when they have been spoken to. The bad harvests in portions of Siberia last year and this year has had the effect of turning a part of the tide of Siberian emigra tion back toward Russia. According to an official source, 77,745 emigrants and 519,721 men whom the wammt communes sent to spy out the land wen. 10 ouieria between January 1 and September 17, and 19,788 emi grants and 12,619 envoys returned. In addition to famine a circum stance that deters emigration and occasions the return of ninnv is .! exhaustion of available farm land. It is a fact that is not sufficiently un derstood abroad that portions of Si beria are already fully occupied. This is true of nearly all good and conveniently accessible agricultural land in West Siberia. Recent settlors have been assigned lands distant from the railroad or navigable rivers, or have received forest and marsh lands which it would not pay them to till under present conditions. With additional railways, with now mal-lrnia for West Siberian grain in the East oiocrian, Mongolian and Manchurian mining regions, and with ift. - O 1 UVVUUl modes of cultivating the ground there wm no room lor more settlers in West Siberia, but the plain truth is that there is little room for peasants there now.
