A WASHINGTON, March 11.—The Coeur | d’Alene investigation was continued before the House Committee on Military Affairs to-day. The cross-examination of Forney, which was in progress yesterday, was not resumed to-day on account of the illness of the witness. Allen F. Gill of Spokane, Wash., a me- chanical engineer, was called to the stand by Lentz. He held various public posi- | tions in Spokane and was master mechan- | ic for the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company before he became .master me- chanic for the Tiger and Poor Man Min- | ing Company at Burke. In that position, | among other duties, he was charged with | ¢ employment and discharge of men in | mine.” He testified that he was at| rke on April 29, 1899, the day the Bun- | 0 Hill mine was blown up.

Lieutenant Lyons threatened to send the firemen to the “bull pen” unless they apologized. The dignity of the State officers must be upheld. Lieutenant Lyons said. Later the firemen apologized and the trouble was amicgbly settled Gill that the men In the Coewm @’Alene district were law abiding. They were not as a class inferior to those in any other mining community. There were some bad men among them, but as a class they were exceptionally good men. The bad men were not permanent residents of v | the district. So far as the Tiger and Poor | Man mine was concerned, the relations | between the miners and Mr Cuiberson, | the active manager, were very cordial. Without disposing of the witness the committee then adjourned un: 1 Monday. | BE HELD IN RIVERSIDE - Three-Day Race Meeting and a Num- ber of Tournaments Among the Attractions.

SANDEN'S ELECIRIC BELT, ANY TARIFF WILL SATISFY PORTO RICANS Business Men Wish Con- gress to Take Prompt Action. i Starving Women March Into San Juan and Beg Governor Davis to Give Them Food or Work. LRSS S SAN JUAN DE PORTO RICO, March 17.—At a special meeting of the Chamber of Commerce to-dayv it was decided to close all busi- ness houses on Monday afternoon to enable the merchants to attend an open- air meeting on the plaza with the object of drawing up a petition to Governor Gen- eral Davis demanding Immediate Con- gressional decision on the tariff, one way or the other. The agreements were sent to all towns throughout Porto Rico re- questing like demonstrations. The feeling of uncertainty regarding the tariff holds business practically at a standstill, the merchants being afraid to order goods or to advance funds on tha planters’ accounts. The meeting to-day was conducted in a calm and businesslike manner. The merchants will be satistied to accept any decision of Congress, either free trade, the 25 or the 15 per cent tariff, but they ask for a settlement of the ques- tion so that business activity may be re- sumed. They decided to take this un- %aruleled step only after mature delibera- on. Sixty country women marched from Na- ranjito, arriving last evening, and peti- tioned Governor General Davis to save them from starvation and to provide work and food. The women presented a most pitiable sight. They were barefooted and ragged, half-naked, dust-cove: and weary from their journey. Some of them were lame; all were discouraged. The petition which they presented to the Governor General tells the story of the depressing times, no work and the price of rice, beans and bread beyond reach, fruits destroyed and .the relief supply discon- APPLY TO BROAD CELL. . 129%% Bouth Spring B4, Los Angolss, Gal. tinued, bringing them, and others where they came from. to starvation. General Davis promised relief to tha party and requested the Mayor to pro- vide transportation.

PACTFIC GROVE, March 17.—Two nota- ble sicentific lectures were delivered hers last night before the Pacific Grove Mu- seum Association. The first, by Professor Kellogg of Stanford University, the well- known entomologist, was upon the life, history and habit of the monarch butter- fly. This subject was especially appro- priate to this place, as the monarch spe- cies of butterfly is more numerous in this particular locality than perhaps anywhera else in the world, there being myriads of them at this season hanging from the trees in a pine grove on Point Pinos, known locally as Mariposa Grove, from the Spanish word butterfly, The second lecture dealt with the va- rious methods which nature provides for carrying pollen from flower to flower for cross-fertilization, and was deliversd by Professor Comstock of Cornell University. i 7 b 2.
