B, Nov. 17.—The terrible | gale that has been raging on the New- | foundland coast during the past thres | days has carried death and destruction | in its track. Shipping has suffered se- verely as a result of the storm and many lives have been lost. { | A private dispatch which reached Louis- | burg, C. B., to-night states that the Nor- | | wegian steamer Ella, under charter to the | Black Diamond Lime Company, has been | | 1ost on the Newfoundland coast in the vi- | { cinity of Belle Isle, with all hands. The steamer left Montreal on Friday with a | | general cargo for St. Johns, N. F. | | The Ella was of %01 tons register and | was built at Sunderland in 1898. This was | to be her last trip of the season on that | route. She carried a crew of about twenty men. ST. JOHNS, N. F., Nov. 17.—The bark- | entine Titania, rpool for St. Johns, | was wrecked yesterday fhorning in a dense fog near Cape Race. One man, | Williams, lost his life in trying to reach | the shore. The captain and the rest of the crew, all of whom were badly injured, had | a terrible experience. They were on the | wreck for thirty-six hours, lashed to the | rigging, and were not rescued until this fternoon. So thick was the fog that the st folk were not aware that a wreck | had occurred, the crew being unable to ake any signals that would attract at- tention. The fact that the Titania was in a cove between high eliffs, made it im- sible for the crew to lan The ship total wreck and the cargo is lost. is © i e O GOMPERS SEEKS T0AID IGLESIAG Cables to Porto Rico to Have Bail Given for His Release. WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.—The release | of Santiago Iglesias, the agent of the American Federation of Labor, who, on | arriving about a week ago at San Juan, | Porto Rico, to organize the workingmen | of the island into trades unions, was ar- rested on a cha of conspiracy ably will be effected to-morrow. blegram was sent this afternoon tae following authority to furnish VASHINGTON, Nev dney 3 ou to The federation sponsible. Another cablegram, sent to Iglesias in jail, announced this action and requested | him to cable directly a report as to the real causes of his arrest. Iglesias has not cabled & word direct to the federation since his arrest. The dispatches sent from here to-day follow information re- ceived that Iglesias is still in jail and at through the intervention of influen- tial friends the bail had been reduced | from $2000 to $500 and that McKee stood | ready to furnish the bail if the organiza- | tion requested it and would be responsi- ble. Gompers also received private word that as the incident haa become a public question it was deemed inadvisable_for | any one on his own account in Porto Rico to furnish the bail. The executive council of the federation, which Gompers d have time to consult in advance, less will approve of his action. Ot | he himself will have to stand amount. Gompers said to-day: £ for ither the fed- eration nor m tand for any- thing unlawfuily y any one, but Iglesias was ar ipon a charge which can easily be proyed to be without any foundation in fact. LONDON MARKET STILL SLUEEISH { Northern Pacific Settle- ment Has a Depress- ing Effect. LONDON, Nov. 17.—In spite of the va- rious happenings following which a rise in Stock Exchange quotations was confi- dently predicted, the condition of affairs at the end of the week has not materially improved. Neither the Northern Pacific | nor the Franco-Turkish settiements, the | cheerful speeches of Lord Salisbury and Mr. Brodrick nor the lack of serlous news from Scuth Africa served to impart the promised upward movement on the ex- change | Up to the present time the cable ad- vices have failed to satisfy operators as to | exactly what the Northern Pacific settle- | ment means and the published details had a rather depressing effect. American se- curities closed the week decidedly off all around. | President Roosevelt enters somewhat into London's calculations. The rumors |of stringent anti-trust measures, which | would break up many of the existing | combinations, result in the President's | message being awalted here with the keenest anxiety. BERLIN, Nov. 17.—The redemption of Northern Pacific stock by the Northern | Securities Company, and the iron report, | both American matters, were subjects of | foremost interest on the Boerse during the last week. ! In its financial article the Kreuz Zeit- | ung says the influences of the New York Stock Exchange continue to be very strongly felt here. An advance in New York quotations, this paper says, causes | a corresponding rise in Berlin the follow- ing day and Berlin obediently bulls the market when New York realizes. The redemption of Northern Pacific pre- | ferred at par caused much disappointmenc among German speculators, who expected this redemption to be effected at 115. Gen- eral regret is expressed at the disappear- | ance of Northern Pacific preferred from | the German market, as this stock has al- | ways been one of the most active securi- | | ties on the Berlin and Frankfort Boerses. | Tne Frankforter Zeitung, speaking of | tron, says: | *“The danger of American competition in the German iron market is rapidly | growing. Of course, the American de- | mand is at present so strong that imports from the United States are impossible, | but the time is probably not distant when the United States will throw her product, | not only on the markets of the world, but will also begin competition in Germany."” Irons were strong yesterday because of the American reports which caused the shorts to cover. Rises during the past week in iron averaged 19 points. The Co- logne Volks Zeitung says the Siegen fur- naces have reduced the price of puddling iron from 90 to 60 marks per ton. e Many People Injured by Earthquake. WELLINGTON, N.

STRIKERS AND GUARDS IN BATTLE AT A MINE MADISONVILLE, Ky., Nov. 17.—Mining | aboard passed the Nortonville c‘.amp. lo- ; railroad, campfires couid be observed and the scene troubles in this district brought more bloodshed to-day. James H. Smith, a ne- gro striker, is dead; George Crouch, an- other striker, is fatally wounded, and John West, Hut Dawson and Nathan Bush, all guards, are wounded, but none of them dangerously. The trouble occurred at the mines of the Providence Coal Company, seventeen miles from here, where an attack began at 4:30 o'clock. The attacking party, sev- enty-five or eighty strong, first fired on the engine house, and then in a few min- utes the company’s stables were sur- rounded. A horse and mule were killed and several other animals disabled. By this time the guards were becoming active and the attackers formed in a semi-circle over the brow of the hill. From there they poured a well-directed fire upon the houses occupied by the non- union employes and their families. Men, aroused by the crash of bullets, rushed to nall timber piles arranged for use in h an emergency, and from behind returned the fire. The attacking th into this quarter, kept up a steady fire on the tipple, engine room, stable and other buildings ~ of the company, while the gua{‘(ds for their part were doing effective work. The battle raged for almest an hour and | a half, when the assailants withdrew, leaving Smith dead and Crouch wounded on the field. How many wounded they took with them is not known, but the leader was seen to fall and it is believed | some of the party who went to his rescue were hit. . County Judge Hall, #t Providence, | started an investigation. An inquest was | held, the Coroner’s jury’s verdict being | that the negro came to his death at the | hands of the guards while the latter were | defending life and property and they were | therefore justified. Adjutant-General Murray at once commenced an investiga- | tion, opening communication with the Governor. | Following the battle ut Providence mine | | there were riots at other Kentucky mines. An attack was made on the nine guards at the Monarch mine, three miles from Earlington, to-night, Yut it was repulsed. Two employes of the St. Bernard Coal Company, at Bernaris Gap, were fired | upon by a man who sprang from behind | a tree. There was much trouble at other places, but neither injury nor loss of life | resulted. | Owing to the day’s riots and the serious situation in the mining field of Webster | and Hopkins counties the Governor_ has ! ordered out {wo ccmpanies of State | troops. The Madisonv'lle company fs do- | ing patrol duty in the outskirts of town, and the Hopkinsville company of the | Kentucky State Guard reached here at 11 | o’clock to-night. Adjutant General Murray Issued a state- ment to-night, in which he declares he is | determined that lawlessness shall be sup- | pressed. A detail of twenty men has | started for the Providence mine. | To-night as the train having the troops @ il Pt 0 ol ] | TWO MEN DEAD, MNOTHER DYNE Bank Robber and Victim Succumb to Their Wounds. g SIOUX CITY, Towa, Nov. 17.—John Sundblad, who was shot in the battle with the Greenville bank robbers at Albert City, Iowa, died to-day. Constable Lo- dine is in a critical condition. The robber, who was shot in the stom- ach, also died to-day, after doggedly re- fusing to give his name or the address of his friends. Before he died he admitted that they robbed the bank at Greenville. Sheriff Harker took the negro and the ‘white man to Storm Lake last night. They also admitted the crime and gave the names of Jack Johns and Louls Brooks. Besides $435 in money recovered from the burglars, they confess to having secreted $500 in a cornfield six miles from Albert City, on the farm where the‘{ ‘were cap- tured. A searching party to-day falled to recover the missing money. The Grand Jury will meet to-morrow at Storm Lake, and an effort will be made to indict the captured robbers for murder in the first degree. Sundblad made an ante-mortem state- ment that the negro fired the fatal shots. Lodine also says he was shot by the ne- £T0. The station at Albert City shows marks of the fight between the citizens and ban- seven empty shells were found on the sta- tion floor, which had been emptied by the robbers while firing into the posse. The robber who died was shot by Mike Conlin, a farmer living west of Albert City, at a distance of forty.rods, with a 45-caliber repeating rifle. Conlin took refuge behind a pile of boulders. ‘The Sheriff has three revolvers, two burglar saws, a bottle of nitro-glycerine and a large number of cartridges that ‘were found on the robbers. The negro and one white man carried razors. —_— Law-Breaking Indians Fined. CHEYENNE., Wyo., Nov. 17.—Sherift Miller of Newcastle and his posse have returned from the Big Thunder country, northwest of Newcastle, where they cap- tured nine Shoshone and Ar: oe Indlans who were slaughtering wild game. The Indians have been tried and found guilty. They were fined $10 to $250 each and are now saun§ their hfarsen to raise the amounts. For several years roving bands of Indlans have violated the Stats; game laws in this section, but the marauders always escaped from the officers. cated in the woods was one of bustle. At the Madisonville camp the strikers are astir. iear the WHO HAVE THE PRICE Two Thousand Dollars Will Buy a Flying Machine in the Open Market. RIDGEPORT, Conn., Nov. 17.—For a retail price of $2000 a flying machine will be placed on the market within the next half year if the plans of Gustave ‘Whitehead of this city carry. Mr. Whitehead says that he has had his enterprise financed and is confident of He now has fifteen machinists at work. Six months ago Whitehead, whose name is anglicized from Wilskopf, made his first test of a machine, the prin- ciples of which are embodied in a model which he will sell to any one who cares to buy. Whitehead will not reveal the name of the man who is supplying the money, but he has been seen about the plant frequently and is said to be.a resident of New York. The machine is operated by steam and immense wings and a propeller moves it through the air. It has an automobile attachment, which is used to raise Whitehead says that when he first conceived the idea of a flying machine he noticed that birds run a few feet on the ground to gain headway before soaring and he put in the autombile for that reason. He is confident that his apparatus can make forty-five miles an hour and says that he has al- ready traveled at that rate of speed in his old model. machine, the inventor says, will carry six persons. The FIRE PREVENTS SEARGH OF MINE Water Seems td Have But Little Effect on Burning Shaft. Trains Are Rushing Hose to Scene of the Terrible Disaster. BLUEFIELD, W. Va., Nov. 17.—Up to this time no other bodies have been recovered from the Pocahontas mine dis- ! | aster, but several may be added to the list, which now numbers nine, as there are two or three miners unaccounted for. The mine is still burning fiercely and for the past twenty-four hours very little has been accomplished in the way of search- ing the mine for those that are still miss- ing. It was supposed last night that the fire would have been under control by this afternoon, but it was found this morning that a large amount of hose and pipe was yet needed in order to reacn the iire. This morning the wholesale hardware estab- lishments or this piace were called on for all their pipe and hose available and pas- senger trains were held here for the pur- pose of rushing this material to the scene of the disaster. The mine officfals are sparing neither effort nor expense in car- ing for the injured, burying the dead and extinguishing the flames. Two excursion trains carried over 2000 people from the coal flelds of Pocahontas, Fiat Tip and Elkhorn to the scene 0f the Baby mine disaster to-day, and all day long the grounds about the entrance to the mine shaft were a mass of humanity. The work of those who were engaged in recovering the bodiks was somewhat re- tarded by the crowds. Officials had to stand with clubs at the entrance to pre- vent curiosity seekers from entering, but even then a few forced an entrance ihrough the air passages. The three bodies taken out yesterday were badly burned. They are supposed to be Hungarians and were interred this af- ternoon. The amount of money necessary for relief is being raised by popular sub- scription. Baron Hood. LONDON, Nov. 17.—Baron Hood of Ava- lon, admiral on the retired list, is dead, aged 77 years. WORKMAN MEETS HORRIBLE DEATH .Companions ~ Accident- ally Dump Molten Slag Upon Him. Two Other Laborers Receive Serious Burns About the Body. — HOMESTEAD, Pa., Nov. 17.—One man was killed and two serlously burned as the result of a party of workmen being buried under a mass of molten slag at the Howard Axle Works to-day. The dead: JOHN RUSKA, aged 50 years, Home- stead; leaves a wife and four children. The injured: Andrew Hulsl, aged 33, Homestead; leg fractured, body badly burned; George Siskl, aged 50, Homestead, gag scalp wounds, severe burns all over ody. The accident occurred on the cinder dump back of the company’s plant. The victims were engaged n collecting scrap when a party of workmen at the top of the dump, about twenty feet above, dumped their car over the edge, not knowing that the men were directly be- neath them. The car contained about eight tons of slag, a great part of which w;a: red hot and much of it in a molten state. TROOPER ELLIS IS ALIVE BUT SICK AT FORT BLISS Identification of the Body Shipped by Swindler Rathbun Proves to Be Incorrect. LITTLE ROCK, Ark.,, Nov. 17.—S. M.| Howell, State manager of the Metropol- itan Life Insurance Company, received a telegram to-day from the commanding of- ficer at Fort Biiss, Texas, stating that W. H. Ellis was at that post sick with tu- berculosis. This settles the controversy raised by the Little Rock police that the dead man sent here from Jeffersonviile, Ind., as the body of Newell C. Rathbun was W. H. Ellis of Troop D. This is the troop af present stationed at Fort Bliss. Coroner Young resumed the inquest on the remains in his possession this after- noon. The result was a verdict that the deceased and cause of death were un- known. mark? 7 ="\ — T = e It is always well for a customer to know fine clothing and be a judge of values, but there is only one in every ten people who have this knowledge.
