REDSKF ms AND MORMOSS.
The Apaches and Polygamists Near Pima
Said to be Working Together.

W
CHICAGO, Ill, Jan. 15.-Concerning
the petition of the Mormon colony at
Pima, Ariz., to the territorial govern
ment for arms and ammunition to de-
fend themselves against the Apaches,
a dispatch from Tucson, Ariz., says:
cit is not known what action Gov.
Zulick will take in the matter, but
many suspicious circumstances are re-
Gently coming to light which Indicate
that this Mormon colony has all along
been secretly encouraging the murder
Gus Apaches by supplying them with
powder and trading them guns in ex-
change for stolen horses, which the
Mormons sell in Mexico. Some of the
Indian scouts recently employed by
Crook while here told certain friendly
Indians who live in this vicinity that
the Mormons of Pima were in league
with Geronimo's band, and that the
hostiles were on the most fri endly
terms with the Mormons. These
Indian scouts, some of whom have
since proven that they themselves
were in league with Geronimo's band,
also privately told that the Mormons
We're getting ready to abandon their
Pima colony and move over into
Sonora; that in view of this they were
buying all the stolen horses and cat
tie that were brought there either by
renegade Indians or thieving white
men. 1t has been anticipated for
several weeks that the Apaches were
running short OF ammunition, and it is
almost certain that they are seeking
to obtain fresh supply through their
Mormon allies. This Pima colony
numbers some 5000 Mormons. most
of whom are polygamists. The Ed
munds law has not yet been enforced
upon them and they live in great dread
of it's execution"

LIVING TOMB.
Thirteen Miners in Wyoming Smothered
nv Black Damn


The work of recovering the bodies Of
the thirteen miners killed in the explo.
sion at the Amy coal mine,
near Evanston, Wyo., has been
prosecuted all the week. The search
has been much delayed by the presence
of gas, and many of the rescuers were
overcome Ten of the bodies bore no
wounds, and death was evidently
caused by suffocation from the black
damp which followed the explosion.
The victimes were found in the sixth
and eleventh levels. The last was
taken from the thirteenth or lowest
level, which is about a mile from
the mouth of the mine. The body
was badly mapgled and burned.
The principal force OF the ex-
plosion was evidently at this point.
Two brothers named Evans were GO
ing down the slope with trip ham
mer when the explosion took place.
The body of one was blown 700 yards
from the mouth of the mine. The
head was off, one leg gone, and the
body mangled in shocking manner.
The other brother appeared to have
been caught by the cable and his body
cut In two. The remains were wound
around steam pipe In the wrecked
shaft-house The mine caught on fire
in several places, but the blaze was
extinguished before much damage was
done
Every door, partition and sloping
in the mine was blown down. Thou
sands of tons of earth and rock were
torn from the mouth of the slope and
the four air entries. ALI the timbering
and track in the upper part of the
slope were blown out. The stone
blacksmith shop, fan house and dump
house were totally demolished, while
the smokestack and part of the roof
of the boiler house were blown off,
The engine room, which was under
Meath the dump house, was the only
thing that escaped. The room was
filled with flames and the engineer and
his assistant was stunned. The ex-
plosion was like a volcanic eruption.
Flames shot into the air 200 feet or
more. The whole country was lit up
for about two minutes, and then came
a rushing, roaring sound, which was
heard for miles. The earth. rock and
debris of the wrecked buildings were
scattered over acres of ground to a
distance of nearly mile, while the
nelghborhood was mantled with fine
coal dust. Many houses near by were
struck by falling rocks and timbers.
A large timber crashed through the
roof of house a half-mile from the
mine and into small chamber occu-
pied by number of persons, but
struck no one. A mass of earth,
weighing several hundred pounds,
passed through the roof of miners
cabin and fell within a foot of a crib
occupied by sleeping babe. Many
other narrow escapes are recorded.

PULLWAN AND POVERTY.
Sensational Remarks at a Meeting of tI
Chicago Presbytery.

OnlchSO EresDytery.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. Somewhat of
a sensation has been created by the
reports and remarks made at yester-
days meeting of the Chicago Presby-
terry IN regard to the desperate struggle
Of the churches at Pullman for ex-
pense, owing to excessive rentals, etc.,
charged by the Pullman Company.
The pastor of the Presbyterian
Church at that point, the Rev.
L. S. McCaslin, appealed for aid
for his congregation. 1t was $3.50 be-
hind on the last year. It pays the
Pullman Company $1,000 rental for
the church, and besides that is COM
PEELED to pay it 1926 per thousand
ing. The Rev. Mr.. McCaslin said that
the company had agreed to heat the
building, but would not keep it's con-
tract. He said he might saw
more, but the Pullman Company
could turn him out of his
house on ten days notice. J. Nc
Lean, an elder of the church, said that
since he had gone to Pullman to live
he had grown poorer ard had not
bought q suit OF clothes for two years.
The Rev. Mr.. Sawyer said 81
preached once in the Pullman Church,
but with the help of God l will never
preach there again. Theword monop-
oily seems to be written in black
letters over the pulpit and pews.
1t blazes forth from every window, and
seems to burn between the lines of the
hymn-book. | thought the organ
groaned monopoly, monopoly in all
its lower tones" The Rev. W. R.
Scott, of the Reunion Church, which is
heavily in debt, said he would soon re-
sign. The Presbyterian ministers
pledged their respective churches to
bear a proportion of the debt.

TALK OF A CRANR.
An Alleged Follower of Riel Talks Myste-
riously at Bismarck.

BISMARCK, Oak, Jan. 15.-John G.
Badeau, a Frenchman, who arrived in
the city yesterday, created quite SEN
sation by announcing that he had au-
thority from the half-breed and Indian
followers of Louis Riel to purchase
ammunition and guns for an outbreak
in the spring. He said he was chief OF
the tribes of the Northwest Ter
ritory, and talked in mysterious
innuendo, and with wild and frantic
gestures. He west West stating that
he would 60 to the Pacific Coast and
thence to Alaska, where he expects to
incite the natives to join him. He
talked about hearing from Riel, whose
spirit, he says, is directing all his move
ments. He was pronounced alunatic,
but his perfectly rational conversation
on all other subjects left the opinion
that he is simply q virulent type of a
crank. However, the serious rumors
which have been received from North
west Territory leave a slight belief
that he is a representative of rebellious
half-breeds.

WATER FAMINE.
Needle Ice Shuts Off tleve1and's Suppl /,
of Water

OF N8fer.
CLEVELAND, O., Jan. 14-There is
imminent danger of O. water famine
here. For two or three days large
quantities of fine, or needle ice, has
been drawn into the tunnel leading
from the lake crib to the pumping
station. There arefour pumps with q
combined daily capacity Of 49,
100000 gallons. At IL O'Clock
last night it was found necessary
to shut down one Of these pumps, and
another was compelled to stop work
at daylight this morning. because of
the ice. The two remaining pumps are
working at about one-half OF their ca
pacity, SO that they furnish only about
100000 gallons, or one-fourth the
average supply, per day. The resi-
dences on a number of streets
were cut off from the mains
at II o'clock this morning, and
an effort will be made to save what
water is now being pumped. With
great care, Engineer Whitelaw thinks
the supply will suffice for ordinary
purposes, but should a fire occur, the
city would be in a sorry plight. A
force OF men have been sent out to the
crib, but the engineer thinks they can
accomplish nothing until the weather
mOderates.
CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 15.-The stu
alton SO far as the water famine is
concerned remained unchanged until
10 O'Clock this morning, when it was
found that water was entering tibet un-
mel and an engine was started at
the pumping station. This is still
working slowly, and the indica-
tions are more favorable than
for many hours. A great MAORI
ty ofthe manufacturing establishments
which depend upon the city for water,
have shut down. Nearly all of the
courts have adjourned, as the steam
heating facilities are frozen up. Hun
dreds OF teams are engaged in hauling
water from the lake with which to sup
ply the thirsty families. Should the
present favorable condition of affairs
continue, another engine will be put
in operation at the pumping station
as soon as practicable.
