THE M'ALLIsTER HORROR.
Unidentified Dead Are Buried by
Number.

McALLIsTER, Ind. Ter, Jan. TO-
This was day of mourning at Krebs,
the scene Of the recent mining disaster
III which so many lives were lost.
The funerals of most of the victims
whose bodies have been recovered, were
held today. There were no religious
services, excepting in a few eases, and
the only ceremony observed in connec-
ton with the funerals was that of
secret organizations, of which most
or the victims were members.
Fifteen of the dead bodies were buried
yesterday. All the coffins available
were then used, and the other burials
were delayed until today, when collins
were received by express from the near
est towns in the neighborhood. The
caskets were of the simplest plain vari-
etles, and were furnished by the mining
company. There was only one hearse
III the town of Krabs, so that it was
necessary TO use every sort of vehicle
to convey the bodies to the cemetery.
Ordinary lumber wagons were the
greatest In number, and in some
cases dumping carts from the mines
were brought into reQuisition. The
funerals took place at 10 O'Clock this
morning, thirty-seven bodies being
placed under the ground. The graves
of the identified dead were marked by
plain headstones of wood with the
names and ages of the victims printed
upon them. The unidentified were
placed in graves by number. Their
clothes found upon them and the con-
tents of their pockets were retained by
the mining officials, and are all marked
with numbers corresponding TO the re-
spective numbers of the graves, for the
purpose of future Identification.
Death added three more victims to
the list of killed today, making the total
hfty-eight. A canvass among physi-
clans attending the injured discloses
the fact that seventeen injured are
likely to die within the next twenty
four hours. Rescuing parties discon-
tlnued work at noon today. satisfied
there were no more bodies buried in the
debris, and none confined within the
chambers of the mine. a Joint commit
tee of the miners and officials will begin
tomorrow on an official inquiry into the
cause of the disaster.

ARKALoN, Kas., Jan. 10.-The per-

does not have evidence that will hold
them. The warrants were based upon
suspicion only at the time of great eX-
element. 1t having been revealed that

away, might be in danger. he will be
removed to a place of safety as soon as
possible.

STATISTICS IN RELIGION.
S. w. Sample COmbats Statements
Made by Rev. w. II. Mckee.

Made by Rev. w. r. Mckee.
At the Peoples meeting last evening
Rev. S. w. Sample preached upon the
subject HAS God Cursed Liberal
Christianity" devoting the major por
ton of his discourse to the points made
by Rev. w. P. Mckee, of Olivet Baptist
church, in which he quoted statis-
tics 10 show that God had
prOspered Methodism and baptism
and had cursed liberal Christianity.
These points the speaker took up one
by one and proceed TO show that sta
tistics could not be taken into consid-
Grafton in this question, and that votes
upon a subject of this kind should be
weighed and not counted. He said:
I'VE will take my brothers. own sta
tisticS. do not say that they are cor
rect, but just for the sake of argument
we will use them. They show that
the UniversalistS number only 10000 and
the Unitarlans only 10000, while the
MethodistS are 100000, but let us go
still farther. Upon his own argument
my brother must admit that GO1 mas
blessed Spiritualism, for the followers
of that creed have increased amazingly
OF late years. God has also blessed
Roman Catholicism, another religion
which l guess my brother has little
sympathy with. In 1900 the Roman
Catholics Of this country numbered less
than 100. cO0, but now its followers are
one to every seven of the population.
Then by this method of reasoning God
has cursed Christianity in Africa and
blessed MohammedaniSm, which has
greatly exceeded it, and has really ac-
complished the more good. 1t would
also appear from this standpoint that
Ged has abundantly blessed Buddhism,
the followers of which number over
800. coo. OOO.'
He then proceeded to speak of liberal
Christianity and its growth and pros
peritv, citing as examples of this, Plym-
outh church, Indianapolis, and Plym-
outh church, Brooklyn.
Speaking of the principles of liberal
Christianity he said: Il do not deny or
question the divinity of Christ, but | do
not think and do not believe there is a
man of science in any church today who
does think that the God who lay in
Mary's arms was the same who created
the galaxy of stars above US, and the
world in which we live. An argument
is that its followers are very
rarely to be found among criminals.
60 to our penitentiaries and prisons,
and you will find very few Sweden
bOrgians, Unitarians and Universalists.
The great growth of the orthodox
churches is largely due to the decline
orthodoxy itself and the adoption of
liberal principles. L can say to you,
my friends, that If the orthodox
churches were to say. in order to be
one of Us you must believe strictly in
all our doctrines, and we will not have
you if you do not. there would be
greater exodus than Moses ever led out

from Arkansas City, Kan, says the
boomers" who are waiting along the
borders of the Cherokee strip for the
opening Of that coveted land are suffer-
ing from the same causes. They, how
ever, have to undergo the added incon-
venience OF living In tents and prairie

of the settlers in the new lands.

Dealt With at Valparaiso.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 10. United
States District Attorney Garter, who
has been assisting Judge Advocate
General Remy in the Baltimore
investigation at Vallejo, said to-
night: There is no doubt but
that Riggin and Turnbull were
foully murdered; that the assaults On
these men were unprovoked, and that
many others we're outrageOusly treated.
The testimony points very strongly to
the fact that. while the attack resulted
from quarrel between Riggin, Talbot
and CHILEAN sailor. it was seized upon
by ChIlian mob as preteXt for gen
eral attack. 1t was also fully
shown that the police and soldiers in
CHILEAN uniforms made little effort to
dispel the crowd and protect the Amer
leans, and that they even joined in the
assault. Although there were instances
of arrests made and protection given to
American sailors during that time.

New YORK, Jan. 1O.-A young and
good-looking Swede, giving his name as
Count c. Clarence Won Rosen, of Stock
holm, was arraigued in the Yorkvile
police court today on complaint of Mar
tin Suva, who keeps Swedish board
ing house and intelligence Office at 400
Third avenue, who charged him with
obtaining money under false pretenses
and grand larceny. Suva stated to the
court that he met the prisoner
Oh Dec. 15, and was told by him that he
was member of q wealthy Swedish
family, but was in temporary hard luck.
His grandmother, he said, was Mrs.
Clara B. Moore, of $40 Broad street,
Philadelphia, who was worth millions
of dollars, and who had promised him a
Christmas present of $500. He also told
Suva that Thomas Hill, of Chicago, a
prominent citizen and philanthropist,
was his uncle, and showed papers rep
resenting numerous financial trans
actions, including an $1,000 mort
gage on Denver property. The
count also showed Suya five
certificates of stock in the Illinois
Building and Loan Association of
Bloomington, ILL.,. for 500 each, which
he represented were fully paid up and
negotiable. This stock he offered to
Suva for 1888, and Suva took IL, paying
SIS down and promising to pay the bal
anee in few days. Meanwhile he COM
municated with the secretary of the
association, and, pending an answer,
not only boarded the count. but also
HQuidated an old board bill of $50. The
count explained to Suva that the
reason he was willing to sell
the certificates was because he
was engaged to marry his cousin. a
beautiful girl of Atlanta, Ga, worth
100000 in her own right, ana he wanted
to consummate the engagement as
speedily as possible. A few days ago
Suva received an answer from the sec
rotary Of the building association in
forming him that the certificates were
worthless. Then Suva had him arrest
ed. Justice Ryan remanded the count
for examination tomorrow.
