BRAVE LIFE SAVERS.
Hauled the Boat Thirty Miles, Through
Woods Part Way

Sturgeon Bay, Oct. 2.-The schooner
Windsor loaded with cedar posts, bound
from Snow Island to Chicago, ran
ashore on the south side of Cana Isl
and at an early hour Saturday morning.
One man, Patrick Wotrick, was
drowned.
The vessel attempted to make Bailey's
HarbOr, but owing to her big deck
load and the heavy wind and sea she
became unmanageable.
Keeper Brown, of the Cana Island
lighthouse, went to Baileys Harbor and
telephoned for the life saving crew
here. Capt Boutin and his crew
promptly loaded the surf boat and ap-
paratus upon wagons and started for
the wreck at 4 O'clock Saturday after
noon
The distance was over thirty miles.

of the way being through woods where
there was no road at all They arrived
at the wreck at l o'clock Sunday morn

In hauling the surf boat through the
woods two holes had been stove in
her. These were patched, and in spite
of the immense sea she was launched
and the remainder of the crew brought
ashore in safety. The vessel was in
bad shape and would not have held to-
gether much longer.
The drowned seaman Wotrick was
washed overheard with part of the
deck load shortly after the schooner
went ashore. The vessel is Il total

TION BEFORE THE HOUSE.
Designs To Lay Bare the Workings of
the Powerful Combination Before a
Congressional Investigating Commit
reinstatement by WaShburn Sur
prises Silver Men.

Washington, Oct. 2.-Kepresentative
Henderson, of Iowa, introduced in the
house today the following resolution
for the investigation OF the sugar trust:
1t is currently asserted and believed
that the American Sugar Refining com
pany, Il corporation organized and eX-
listing under the laws OF the state of
New Jersey, and otherwise known as
the sugar trust, has in violation OF law
and against public policy created Il
gigantic trust; and
Whereas, 1t is so asserted and be
lieved that said corporation, by the use
Of Watered stock, by unfair compe-
tition, and by illegal combination, had
crushed out legitimate competition to
an extent which gives it the power to
depress the price Of raw material and
to advance the price OF the manufac
tured articles at will, thus throttling
the cane and beet agriculturists with
one hand and grasping the purses Of
all householdeIS and consumers of
sugar with the other; therefore be it
''ReSolved, That a special committee
of five members of this house shall be
appointed by the speaker-one OF whom
shall be drawn from the committee on
commerce and one from the committee
ON judiciary-which special committee
shall have power to sit during the SEES
siOns of the house, to send for persons
and papers and shall be charged with
the duty of examining the circumstan
ces attending the creation Of said sugar
company and the methods ~ which
it is conducted, its effect upon agricul-
ture and commerce, as well as upon
the enhanced cost Of one Of the neces-
sarieS Of life
The resolution further authorizes the
committee to secure the aid Of the
department of justice in it's investiga-
ton, and if the facts warrant it, to re-
port bill to annul the corporate eX-
istence Of the trust

THEY ARE FOR REPEAL.
Senators from Washington and Wy
oming on That Side.

Washington, Oct. I'm the senate
A bill to give settlers on the public
lands in Oklahoma territory another
year in which to make their first pay
mcntS on the land was reported from
the committee on public lands and
passed.
! The silver purchase repeal bill was
taken up and Mr.. Kyle, populist OF
South Dakota, rose to address the
senate, but yielded to Mr.. Dubois, re
publican of Idaho. Mr., Dubois com
planned of Il statement made by Mr..
German last week as to his resolution
for the postponement of the repeal
bill being offered for the purpose Of
delay. He denied that statement.
Mr. WaShburn. republican, of Mime
sofa. spoke rs to the abSurdity of the
proposed postponement, particularly in
view of the fact that two senators
representing two of the states men
toned in the resolution were in favor
of unconditional repeal Of the Sher-
man act.
On being challenged by Mr. Wolcott
to name the two states, Mr.. WaShburn
responded promptly by mentioning
Washington and Wyoming. The
authority for the statement was de
mandcd by Mr.. Dubois and it was
promptly given by Mr.. Washburn, who
said that he had been informed by the
senator from Washington, Mr.. Quire,
that he would vote for the uncon-
ditional repeal of the Sherman act.
Mr.. Kyle then addressed the senate
in opposition to the bill.
The federal election repeal bill was
taken up this morning before a small
audience and Mr. DinSmore, democrat.
of Arkansas, took the floor in its adj
vocacy He was followed by Mr.. Den
son of Alabama in favor of repeal.

Ohio, considers the public building at

Fifteen years ago l made Detroit my

a flag station a few miles west of Ann

Three days later | saw her again, and
that time l was sure l made mash.
Her father was cripple, believe, and
she helped run the station. | think
it was a milk station, as l saw lots of

Il decided to go out from Detroit
and complete the mash. In fact, l

I sailed down to the depot, ensconsed
myself in a coach, and away l went in

milwaukee,. oct > Judge Mann to
day ordered that Mrs. Martha

against John l.. Mitchell for the ap-
pointment Of another executor of the
estate Of Alexander Mitchell be dis
continued in his court and certified to
the circuit court, on the ground that
he was Il depoSitor in the Marine bank.

asks that he be removed from that
position: that another executor be ap-
pointed and that John l.. Mitchell be
restrained from selling or mortgaging

the lcgacies provided for under the will
have been carried out. and that all of
the property Of the late Alexander
Mitchell is subject to a settlement of
these legacies,, after which the residue
only goes to John l.. Mitchell.
Judge Mann heard the arguments
and then decided that being de

Crystal Falls, Mich, Sept. 29.-The
most disastrous accident in the history
OF mining operat tons in northern Wis
consin and the Michigan peninsula &C.
Cured last evening, when the Mans
held mine, near this city, cave1 ill.,,
letting i'll the current OF the Michi-
CANINE river. Every man in the drift
was caught by the flood and persisted
The dead number between forty and
sixty. The exact extent Of the loss OF
life will not be known for some hours,
as the force is constantly changing and
the list OF the miners at work is not
to be had.
The accident occurred at o'clock last
night by the bursting of the river bed.
The mine filed with water in two
hours and only three OF the men 1T
work escaped. They were in the shaft
and were literally blown by the
rushing water and air, which made it
impossible for Il rescuing party to leave
the cage for the rescue OF the others.
l. is impossible now to obtain names
of the drowned men but thirty-seven
are absolutely known to be dead. Near
ly all are Italians and SWedeS.
The Mansfield mine is located seven
miles west Of this city. 1t is one of the
ehlesinger group and is operated by
orrigan, Ives 4 Co., of Cleveland.
The mine reaches out under the river,
but the earth between the workings
ana the stream was supposed to be Of
such a thickness as to make the flood
ing Of the mine impossible, and no
extra precautions had been taken
against disaster Of this kind. The
night shaft of men went in the mine
at the usual hour and were deep in
the pit when the break occurred AS
no one escaped when the break oc-
Cured it is not known whether or not
the men had any warning Of the i'm
pending calamity, but it is not consider
ed possible.
The fee Of the Mansfield mine is
owned by the Caledonia Mining COM
pany, a corporation organized at Flor
ence, Wis. The stock of this company
is mainly owned by Edward Reyes, A.
e. Guensberg and DR.. Bond. all Of Flor
ence.
When the operators of the Mansfield
first began to take ore out below the
river level, people used to remark
that some accident Of this kind would
happen, for at an early stage OF the
mines development the miners began
to drift under the bottom Of the stream.
The main shaft was so close to the
Michigamme that very short trough
served to convey to the river the water
that the pumps raised. The ore out
crops and forms part of the river bot
tom at that point. The Mansfield is
not very deep mine, but is down to
the fourth or fifth level. The c;lve-in
is about $50 feet in diameter AMI the
mine is entirely filled with water to
the river level and it is impossible for
any one to be alive.
