Great Destruction of Property and Life by a Typhoon in Japan. TALK OF THE POLITICIANS. BUD LINDSAY NOT LYNCHED. Promised With = Rope Around His Neck to Turn State's Evidence. Kxoxvinue, Texx., Aug. 22-—A sensational episode occurred last night at Coal Creek. The leader of the most daring, most lawless and most troublesome body of miners was Bud Lindsay. To his machinations is attributed much of the turbulence in the Creek. He has made himself so obnoxious to the more con- servative miners and’ to citizens not in sympa- thy with the rioting that he has been a marked figure and only his keeping within safe distance of the military since his capture and generally between four walls has prevented his being killed. For several nights he was confined in ‘an old mine and the mouth guarded by a large aqnad of soldiers. Affaire during the day huve been so quiet, the submission of the miners so | eral, that watch was somewhat relaxed und | indsay had lost some of his fear and wandered more freely within the inclo- in some way that no teema to understand, four citizens mat to seize and silence him and in the dusk slipped him between the pickets. He was harried up the valley toward Briceville and the mob, which gained force almost at every step, hurried him forward, fearing alarm and pursuit by soldiers. The journey was not ended until | Briceville, the scene of the labor troribles last year and the home of the more conservative class of miners. was reached. Once there a was secured and placcd around his neck. His true character was soon seen. Though con- sidered a desperate man and although he has at | least a dozen murders to his account, he broke down and begged for his life with ali possible] fervor. His pleadings and lamentations were effective. He was promised life upon the rol- emn promise that today he will tarn state's evi- dence and reveal the names and plans of all the Jeadere, tell how the mob was raised, the nature of the oath, the names of the miners known to have killed soldiers or guards. in short, to reveal to the civil authorities all of the lawlessness that has reigned. and this he has agreed to tes- tify to in court. When all this was promised the rope was taken from his neck and he was returned to the camp for safe keeping. It is now believed that with his testimony twenty or thirty leaders can be successfully tried for mur- der and convicted. MORE MEN WOUNDED. There are several more men wounded than have been reported. A young militiaman by the name of Michaels was shot last week. He had one wound from a 60-caliber needle gun. ‘This hit him from the rear and passed entirely through the hip, coming out in the lower part of the qroia. | Almost at the sme time he was struck by another sharpehooter’s ball from the front. The wounded man is well attended by company physicians and will recover. When seen by @ correspondent today he asked the | latter to tell the country that Fort Anderson | would not have been taken until every man de- | one | | from Gen. Carnes’ forces, but communication between them is | ‘The troops are gritty, but they are | yaically exhansted. Capt. Morton is on the field with Gen.

If more fight- ing oceurs Knoxville will send many men for- ward who will go under the black flag. Capt. Morton's four-inch rifles arrived here last night | with ammunition and tents. They go to Coal Creek this morning. More War Department Ammunition. ‘The War Department today ordered the ship- | ment of the artillery ammunition which the governor of Tennessee requested by telegraph yesterday. The ammunition was shipped from ‘the Kock Island arsenal, and will be stored at Kuoxville for use in an emergency. ‘The Department of Justice is conducting an investigation of the conduct of Deputy United States Marshal Bud Lindsay, in connection with the Coal Creek riots. No word was received today by the department from that section. LIZZIE BORDEN IN COURT. From Pittsburg. Fart River, Mass., Aug. 22.—Miss Lizzie A. Borden arrived here from Taunton at 10:55 o'clock this morning and will be given a preliminary bearing on a charge of murder | this afternoon, beginning at 2 o'clock. Shesatin | Pythias have taken this city by | the middle of a regular passenger car on the way | streets, hotels, boarding houses and the tents | from Taunton, and attracted no attention until | he was half ‘way to this city.

Some of the ngers passed and repassed her seat, but she sat with her face turned toward the window and her veil drawn | closely over her eres. She did not show the | ghtest trace of suffering and did not | in any degree mind the attention she was attracting. She stepped from the train in this city, assisted by Rev. Mr. Buck, and was escorted "to a cloved by Detective Seaver and City Marshal Hilliard. The carriage was driven by a circuitous route to the Central station, where Miss Borden was handed over to | Matron Russell and taken to the matron’s room, Her sister, Mrs. Brigham, Attorney Jennings and Attorney Adams where in attendance to re- ceive her and they talked together for some time.

An Address Issued by the German-Ameri- can Cleveland Unton. Nag Youx, Aug. 22.—The German-American Cleveland Union has iseued an address signed by Cari Schurz, Oswald Ottenderfer, William | Steinway, Henry Villard, Louis Windmiller | and Gustey H.

DICKINSON WILL NOT GO. Me Dentes That He is to Take Charge of the Chicago Bureau. Specta! Dispatch to The Evening Star. New York, Aug. 22.—The chief events of political interest today were the return of Chair- man Dickinson and the statement that he will not go to Chicago to run the western campaign. but remain here, and the iseuance of an ad- dress to the German voters of the country signed by Carl Schurz, Oswald Ottendorfer, Henry Villard, Gustav Schwab and others urg- ing them to vote for Cleveland. The address is issued in both German and English, and re views Cleveland’s record, urging his re-election. Mr. Dickinson's rather elaborate announce- ment that he ix not going to Chicago to run the western bureau creates Wome quet amusement in political circles. He evidently has been an- noyed by the report that the Chicago bureau was established for the pur- pose of getting rid of him, and he took # to give out an claborate statement referring to the “extremely onerous duties of his dual position, which under the unusual reso~ Iutions adopted ast week carries the unusual | privilege of designating a represontative to act | for him at Chicago while he is himself oceupied | at the main headquarters at New York." vevtsndestdinaittely A COMBINATION OF TERRORS. Great Destraction and Loss of Life in Japan by Typhoon, Land Slide and Earthquake. Sax Francisco, Ang. 22—The Oriental steamship Gaelic, which arrived yesterday, brings details of enormous loss of life by « typhoon, land slide and earthquake in Japan. The typhoon lasted three days at Tokushima and the town was flooded. One hundred and fifty people were drowned, 2,000 houses swept away and 20,000 houses submerged. Twonty- five thousand people aro being fed by the gov- rnment. In Akosgun 300 people were drowned and 3,000 dwellings swept away. Land slips on a mountain side in Otumara filled a river and converted a valley into a huge lake. No detaila have been received, but the people had no warning and many lives must have been lost. Near Tokushima a great fissure opened in the earth at the base of the Hogi, mountains and swallowed up houses and a hundred people. Bumbling noises were hoard for a day before the disaster. ‘The noises still continue and the | people have fled to the hills, From Okumyama come reports of terribly disastrous foods. Over 5,000 houses were submerged and 100 people drowned. i ones iI, AUSTRIAN MANEUVERS POSTPONED. | jot Further Expose the ‘Troops to the Great Heat. Vix: Aug. 22.—Owing to the insense heat which still prevails throughout Austria Empe- ror Francis Joseph has countermanded the or- ders for the holding of military maneuvers, which were fixed for August 29. The action of the emperor was due to the re- ports that have been received from Carniola, where maneuvers have been held notwithstand- ing the extremely hot weather. The soldiers were in heavy marching order and were com- pelled to take the field in the broiling sun. The result was that 200 of them were sunstruck. ‘These were all placed in the care of the physi- cians in charge of the field hospitals, and only eleven men out of the 200 died, but there is a feeling of indignation that the military author- ities should have forced them to maneuver in such weather, the general civilian opinion be- ing that the operations could easily have been postponed until cooler weather set in without in any way impairing the service. When the emperor learned of the fatalities attending the maneuvers in Carniola he at once counter- manded the orders for the other maneuvers. EEE KANSAS CITY CROWDED.
