A MINE CAVE.IN.
Twelve Men Caught; All PrOba-
bly, Dead.

Butte, Mont, May 1G.-An appalling
accident occurred at the Anaconda mines
yesterday. Twelve men were caught in
a cave-in that took place from the five
hundred level down to the eight hun
dred. The ground at the place where
the accident occurred is sloped out
more or less all the way out; so, when it
gave way at the eight hundred level, all
above gave way.
There were a dozen men working in
the slope near the five hundred level, at
various distances down from it. They
were all caught in the cavern. Three OF
them were near the top of the cave and
were rescued alive but badly injured.
The other nine were so covered with de-
bris, rocks and timbers that life must
have at once been crushed out of them
The bodies Of three have SO far beer
recovered, all unmarried. The work OF
recovering the Others is slowly proceed.

Dike.
ST. LOUIS, May 16.-The river is at an
extremely high stage and great damage
is being done.
Opposite the Jefferson barracks num-
Der of houses have been undermined by
the flood and wrecked 1t is believed all
the occupants escaped. On Mullanphy
Island, thirty-fve miles north of st.
Louis in the Missouri river, fourteen
women and children were rescued by a
volunteer corps. Several dead bodies
have been seen floating in the water
Most of them come evidently from long
distance. 1t is now common sight to
see small house and various articles OF
furniture travelling past.
All railroad traffic over The Eads bridge
has been abandoned owing to flooded
tracks in illinois. The Burlington, Alton
and other roads run passenger trains in
over the merchants bridge.
The Walker soap works, the Latin
powder company depot, Meyer & Han
son S icrtIlizing company establishments
and several diaries and warehouses all
flooded and work stopped. About two
hundred more houses have been wrecked.
The most serious aspect is found near
Venice. Between there and Joplin is a
small dixie. The water backing up on
the Brooklyn side is flooding several fine
farms, and the owners of these went
down Yesterday morning to cut the dixie,
as by doing this the water would
run through on the Venice side
where the land is lower. The Venicites,
however, are satisfied with the amount
of water they possess and about twenty
of them, armed with shot guns, patrolled
the dixie to prevent the attempt to cut it.
The Brooklyn men are said to be deter
mined TO drain their side. Up to mid.
night no serious trouble had cnsued, but
both sides were on the alert and a con.
tlct may ensuc.

SUICIDE IN KNOXVII.I.E.
"I,uHn" Henry, Known In Ashc'
willie, Kills HIMSELF.

"Lum" Henry, painter, committed
suicide in Knoxville Saturday night, one
bullet from a revolver doing the work.
1t is believed that melancholia, brought
on by being out of employment, was the
cause of the suicide. Henry and his wife
came to Ashevilc probably six months
ago, where he secured employment with
Fitzpatrick Bros, the painters, on North
Main street. There were frequent bick-
erings between Henry and his wife, and
she finally left him, going % her parents
home in South Carolina. Shortly after
this he went back to Knoxville.
Henry was known to the police here,
having been arrested several times tor
fighting and various offences. He was a
young man.

DID HE TRY
TO COMMIT SUICIDE? I?

The train which leaves the Asheville
depot at 3:O5 was rounding the bend
Yesterday when a man rushed to the
platform and jumped off. His rash
act created great excitement among
the other passengers-they all thoughtit
was a case of suicide. Ladies tainted,
men rushed to the platform expecting to
see his mangled form upon the track,
but the fact was he had forgotten to put
his bottle Of "Buncombe Pills" in his
satchel and would not start on his jour

but he might have taken greater.
