sMoTHERED IN A sAND-PIr.
A Caye-In Causes the Death OF Peter
JohnsOn.

A Caye-In Causes the Death OF Peter
johnson.
Peter Johnson was killed about noon yesterday
by being buried alive in sand-pit on South
Fourteenth street, about two blocks south of the
South school.
johnson was in the employ OF 6. y. Rice, and
was engaged in digging out sand, which was
hauled to the city. At the time OF the ac-
cident he was working alone. About IL
o'clock teamster, who was hauling
sand left Johnson at work in the
pit although he spoke of going to dinner
shortly. Upon the Transfers return about l
o'clock Johnson had disappeared. The teamster
went at once to the house of Lincoln Reardon,
at the corner of Day and Market streets, where
the young man boarded, and there learned that
he had not been to his dinner.
Reardon and the teamster then began to be
alarmed and hurried to the pit. There they saw
at once that the sand had caved in, and after
digging to the depth of two or three feet came
upon the head of the unfortunate man, who was
in an upright position. When found, about 20
O'Clock, there was not a sign of life in the body
No bruises were discernible, and 1t was evident
that death had been caused by sufocation.
Coroner Horton was notified and had the body
removed to Bonney d Stewards undertaking
rooms.
Johnson, who was about "a years of age, has
been resident of Seattle for the past three
years. OF late he has been working at intervals
for Rice, although yesterday was the first day
he had worked for week. He was an industri-
GUS man and owned a small piece of property,
upon which he lived, at the corner of Taylor and
Fauntleroy streets. He has brother in Mime
sofa, who has been telegraphcd for instructions
as to the disposal of the body.

THE ARMED MEN AT FRANKLIN.
Demand That Guns BE Taken From
Negroes and Guards.

SEATTLE, May u, 1891.
To THE EDfroR: A few words concerning the
trouble at the franklin mine. Tho spirit and
intent OF the federal law prohibiting the impor-
tation OF alien contract labor, In Just as much
violated In this case by bringing these men from
illinois as If they came direct from Africa The
effect is the same. Many of the Franklin min
ers, who are now virtually being eyicted by
these coiored men, fought in the late rebellion
TO secure freedom for this very people. While
fighting for this freedom It was farthermost
from their thoughts that the very slaves for
whose freedom they were contending would, in
less than thirty years, be aiding in making serfs
OF their emaacipators. This is reciprocity" or
gratitude with vengeance.
However. we must not dwell too long on these
facts. The duty OF the hour is to ascertain the
remedy, then apply II.
understand that Sheriff woolery has been i'm
portuned TO disarm these colored men aud Pink
erton detectives, but declined upon the ground
that he was not sure of his authority. Would
that he had given these victims OF corporation
tyranny little of the soul he seems to be Civ
ing their oppressors. Ny unsolicited advice,
not only to the miners, bat to ali friends of
labor who have the interest OF the toiler at
heart, Is to make a formal, written demand upon
Sheriff Nooiery to disarm the Pinkerton detec-
tives and colored men. If. upon the demand,
the sheriff does not act, GO into court, ask for q
writ OF mandanus compelling him TO do so, or
show cause. This talk about section 81
OF article OF the constitution of the state not
being operative because there is no penalty for
its violation provided by the legislature, Is all
bosh. Let the court once decree that the sheriff
ofking county disarm these men; then let the
company disrespeet the order of the court, the
contempt would be sufficient cause for imposing
penalty.
Section 20 of article OF the constitution OF the
state of Washington reads follows; 1.-THE
provisions OF this constitution are mandatory,
unless by express words they declared TO be
otherwise" Eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty. REEFS T. DANIELS.

A THEATER SCHEME.
New Movement for Erection of
an Opera-House.
WORK TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK.
Messrs. Yesler and Baxter VIII Put Up
q Building on YesIer Avenue
and Fourth Street.
WORK TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK

new movement for the erection OF an opera
house has taken such definite shape that Henry
L. Yesler and d. X. Baxter, who are its chief
promoters, announce that they will begin the
work of construction next Monday. This is the
third movement towards filing the citys long
est-felt want, but while the two companies
which had previously taken up the project had
each prepared plans for a building, they met
with such insurmountable difficulties as pre-
vented their realization. Messrs fesler and
Baxter have not only prepared plans, but state
that they have the necessary funds at command
to complete the building.
The site selected is at the southeast corner of
Yesler avenue and South Fourth street and runs
leo feet on Yesler avenue and 100 feet on South
Fourth street. Ii 10 considerably below the
level of the street and is occupied on the Yesler
avenue side by the skeleton of a corrugated iron
building, which was never finished. Behind
this, fronting on South Fourth street, stands a
frame dwelling occupied by Mr.. Baxter. The
removal of these buildings will begin next
Monday, and construction will Immediately
follow.
The building will rise three stories above the
level of Yesier avenue aud will have a high
basement. 1t will be of pressed brick
with stone trimmings aud be finished in
the best style, both inside and out. The base
ment will be fitted up as a spacious music hall,
having seating capacity of about :, 800 and will
have an entrance on South Fourth street. The
thcater will compose the central and rear part
OF the building, and will have seating capacity
of about 2,0o0 On the outer sides will be liz
rooms, which will probably be used as a hotel
The main entrance will be OH Yesler avenue,
through a magnificent stone arch, and the side
walk on that front will be widened to sixteen
feet. The cost OF the structure will be about
100000.
The work of construction will be pushed with
out cessation until completed, and will be SUI
perintended by John Parks.

Central Labor Union Wins a Hot Struc
gle-A CostIY COMMITTEES.

ke-A costly COMMITTED
The coal miners affairs were the principal
subicct discussed at the Western Central Labor
Union last night and it took until nearly
o'clock before the matter was final
ly sessied. The object OF the discussion
was 90 settle the question TO whether
the Western Central Union or joint local exeeu-
tive board of the Knights of Labor is the proper
body to handle the difficulty. II was finally
decided that the Western Central Labor Union
assume full control of the affair, and If all the
miners assemblies do not submit to the orders
of the Western Central Labor Union that the
union drop il altogether.
1t was stated that some OF the colored men
who have been fed and given an opportunity TO
leave the city have not done so. but insist on
hanging around and eating at the expense of
the committee, and when they were told they
could have no more meals, they commenced cir
culating report TO the effect that
tho committee had deceived them
into leaving the miaes In fac., letter to this
effect, signed by four OF them, was read An
other point that came out was the fact that the
colored committee of three, sent up to Franklin
by the committee, TO talk to the negroes. some
days ago. presented bill for $40 for the work,
though the committee was out only one day.
Another yexed question was protest OF the

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
Matters Before the Regular Meetin,
Yesterday.


Yesterday.
letter was submitted to the board of public
works at its meeting yesterday signed Anti
Litigation" stating that it was the earnest de-
sire of the various owners of Edes < Knights
addition that the city officially declare and
designate the lines, metes and bounds of all
streets passing through that addition. An early,
fixed and permanent survey officially enacted
would prevent impending disastrous lawsuits
between neighbors and lot owners against the
city, and prompt action is public necessity.
Improvements were delayed under the present
grave uncertainty of the right survey lines,
from the almost countless false ones, made ap-
parenty by grossly incompetent alleged survey
ors usually employed by the city. The matter
was referred to the city engineer for his opinion
as to whether new surveys in the case were
necessary or advisable.
The street superintendent reported the COM
pletion of the work of removing distractions to
travel on Depot street, from Howell street to
Broadway.
ii. III. Meeker and others petitioned the board
to provide water supply for the dwellings in
block 5, Edes & Knights addition. The resi-
dents there are now dependent on wells, which
are unsatisfactory from a sanitary point of view,
and worthless as protection from fire. Re-
ferred to the superintendent of the water-works
for report.
q. A. Upper and other residents of Lewis
street, between Yesler avenue and Jessie street,
asked that water main be laid on Lewis street.
between those points, to connect supply pipes in
that locality. Referred to the water superinten-
dent.
The superintendent of sewers was instructed
to notify parties owning the property at the
northeast corner of Bell and Front, to have il
drained, as there is a stagnant pond at that
point.
The street commissioner reported that in
block G, north side of Ninth street, between
Chestnut and Hyde, buildings were being
erected that encroached on the street.
The secretary was instructed to prepare no.
tees to be served by the street commissioner on
those parties to move their buildings back on
the proper line
Major Rinehart reported that lien on the
Winehill building covering the expense borne
by the city in removing the material on the
street adjacent might not hold; in which case
the amount would be collected by civil suit.
The secretary was instructed to advertise for
bids for the sorap-iron accumulated by the
superintendent of the water-works, both at the
Broadway pumping station and at the Jackson
| street material yard.
1t was the sense of the board that permits
given in future for the of streets by persons

clear up after the work, leaving streets and al

THE BUCKLEY BRIDGE.
King and Pierce County Comforting
About the Work.

Chairman Sampson, of the Pierce county
board OF commissioners, was in Seattle yester-
day. comforting with Chairman Fred Gasch of
the King county board, regarding the building
OF a bridge at Buckley. few weeks ago the
commissioners of King and Pierce counties
met and agreed to build bridge at Buckley, on
the county line, the cost--about s5,0O0---to be
shared equally by the two counties.
"For the past three weeks the Tacoma papers
have been advertising for bids" said Mr. Samp-
son yesterday, "but we have not decided upon
the plans yet. / came down today to talk with
Mr.. Gasch about the matter, and believe that
1t would be advisable to postpone the building
of the bridge for little while, until we can
have time to look over and accept plans that
will be satisfactory

fugitive Guards were stationed around the
uerro's house, and when surrounded by the
whites they opened fire, which was returned
by the determined crowd. The shooting
was in the dark, and mons of the whites

captured will give those playing the role of
road assassins away, and the whole gang
will be arrested.
