It was thought at first that sev- eral had been kilied and efforts were be- gun at once to clear away the wreckage. It was scon learned that, though several had been severely hurt, none were in a dangerous condition. It was the last day of the two -weeks’ racing meet and a large crowd was in at- tendance. No other portion of the grounds was injured by the wind. The following is the list of the injured, all being resi- dents of Denve! W. H. Ehrick, scalp wound and internal injuries; D. .

HOMER PRINDLE, | Chairman of the Admission Day Celebration | AMERIGR MAY MAKE INQUIRY Flag Incident at Skaguay Will Require an Ex- planation. e WASHINGTON, June 29.—The State De- partment has not received any represen- | tation concerning the flag incident at Skaguay, where much excitement is sald to have been caused by the hauling down | of a British customs ensign raised at that | point. | Based on the press reports of the af- | fair, the officials do mot attach serious | importance to the incident itself, although it is recognized that the matter might as- | sume importance if the raising of the flag was an assertion of British sovereignty over that locality. In that event there is no doubt that the State Department would take cognizance of the matter. But as it stands the flag appears to be that of the customs office, put up for convenience in designating where customs may be paid, and not the British emblem indi- cating any claim of sovereignty. * The modus vivendi made on October 20, 1899, between Secretary Hay and the Brit- ish Charge d'Affairs here established. a provisional line running some distance north of S8kaguay, on the summit of the Chilkoot Pass and of the White Pass, the main trails in that locality. Reference to the official map indicaies that Skag is clearly’ w:thin the American line, accord- ing to this modus vivendi. If a customs officer s at Skaguay he is there for the convenience of locating imports Lefore they reach the wild reglon through which the actual pro- visional line runs. Under such circum- stances it is ielt that forbearnce should be shown on both sides. For the present no official attention will be given the in- cident, as It is not before the department in any form. | OTTAWA, June 29.—The Canadian Gov- ernment authorities have not heard full particulars of the flag incident at Skag- uay, but are inclined to think that its jm- portance is exaggerated. The Dominion | has no customs collectors there. No cus- | toms duties for this country are taken there, but the Dominion maintains what is known as a transit office for the ex- amination of goods designed to pass through the disputed strip of territory to | the Yukon district beyond, the object be- | ing to facilitate through shipments and to prevent their being Gelayed at the in-- ternational bourdary, which laps half- way across the line of the White Pass| Railway. The_ arrangement is one used by the Canadian Government at Tacoma, Seattle, Chicago, Duluth, Portland -and other American points, and by the American authorities in the Dominion. Usually the officers are quartered at the railway sta- tions, where it would be absurd to have flags flying. There is a special office at Skaguay. gt was not known here whether it flew a flag or not, but the impression is that a flag Is not necessary to the busi- ness the office has to transact. Stockton Plumbers Strike. STOCKTON, June 29.—Between 75 and 100 union journeymen - plumbers _walked out of the local hardware and piumbing shops this evening at 6 o’clock.

HONOLULU, June 22.—The Grand Jury called to fnvestigate the charges of bri- bery in the Legislature has made its re- pert to Circuit Judge Gear. The jury re-: ports that it has found no eviderice that | Legislature. Over a hundred witnesses were examined by the jury, and the re- | port says that the jurors found ‘no war- rant” for the accusation that there had been any cases of bribery in connection | ith the proceedings of the Legislature, The report states that the testimony of Governor Dole was to the effect that his information on the subject of bribery was second or third hand, and that at the time when he informed the Legislature that’he had information he could not ig- nore that bribery was taking place, he bad no legal evidence that such was the case. The jurors in their report review at length the testimony given by various witnesses and sum up their conclusions in a statement that “the majority of wit- ! s téstified that their information was | €d upon newspaper reports or street| rumors. i The Grand Jury's report states f\xrlhcr‘l that while the jurors find no warrant for | the charges of bribery, “testimony was | given that warranted the belief, that per- | sons not members of the Legisiature had | asked for a commission for furnishing inting to the printing offices and for | discounts when they paid bills.”” Judge Little of Hawaii has rendered a decision ~ declaging unconstitutional the old Hawaiian law regarding desertions of husbands and wives. Under the law in question a husband or wife who was guilty of desertion could be akrested and subjected to criminal prosecution, and it was the duty of district magistrates to endeavor to effect reconciliations, or, fail- ing so to do, to inflict sentences upon the deserters. The law has been regarded as in conflict with American statutes for some time, but has never reached a court of record until the case in which Little gave the decision was brought up. The Sailors' Union fight against the work of the shipping masters, Turk and Lewis, continues to make lively times on the water front. Lewis was assaulted the day before vesterday by a large crowd of union sailors, and one Christianson, a | runner for the union, was fined $30 for the assault. Eight others were arrested, ut not convicted. gewis and Turk had shipped a non-uniof crew for the ship Louistana, and thus incurred the enmity | of the union. The union and non-union | men are at loggerheads and serious trou- ble is feared, Prince David has sworn to warrants for | the arrest of W. H. Cunningham and J.

It is supposed that a defect in the arch of the tunnel caused the acci- dent. A narrow escape from death or serious injury was erperienced by the passengers | and crew of an express train which was | caught by the falling debris in the tunnel. | The train was the regular north-bound | express, which lesaves the Union station | at 1:08 o'clock in the morning, consisting | or three baggage and express cars and | three passenger coaches. As far as can be learned, the avalanche of earth and rocks caught the rear express car, which | was immediately In front of the passenger | cars. The train was not running rapidly and the iar was not severe. The engineer quickly brought his train signal tower to Union station. A yard thinly filled passenger coaches were drawn back to Union station without.the occupants being aware of the danger through which they had passed. The houses on each side seem perilously close to the brink and should any further cave- in occur they must be precipitated into the cavity below.

Piles is a tedious and persistent disease which wears out the patlence of its vie- tims. It has several forms of torture. Sometimes it's a maddening ltchln§ sation. At other times it's a knot of ing tumors highly inflamed.
