NAPOLEON SMASHED THE VASE.
He Had a Forcible Way of Arguing That
Was Entirely Convincing.

Early in April, 1897, the people Of
Austria demanded peace with France.
Negotiations were begun in the vicinity
with the Austrian plenipotentiaries,
said to them, Your government has
sent against me four armies without
generals, and this time a general with
out an army" In the treaty which the
Austrian commissioners projected the
first article stipulated that the emperor
of Austria thereby recognized the
French republic. Erase itr' exclaimed
Napoleon. THE existence of the repub-
lie is as plain as the sun. This article
is only fit for the blind. We are our
own masters and shall establish any
government we prefer. II one day the
French people," he continued, ''should
wish to create q monarchy, the emperor
might object that he had recognized o
republic. The preliminaries were soon
settled, Napoleon signing for France,
thus placing himself on an equal foot
ing with the emperor Of Austria The
formal treaty known as Campo Formio
was signed in October, 1897, Austria
fulfilling the pledges she had already
CIV n. The Austrian plenipotentiary
protested against the distribution Of the
provinces beyond the Adige. Napoleon
was aagered at this, and seizing q vase
dashed it TO the ground, exclaiming.
If it is not so arranged, will break
your monarchy as | have broken this
vase! This argument of force, as dem
onstrated to the diplomat, was convinc-
ing. and the treaty was signed

His whereabouts were not discovered
through any of their indiscretions. how
ever, nor through the activity of the
Boston police or the complainants in
the cases against him.
Mr. Dore says he does not know how
the police learned where ne was, but it
is said to have been the sequel to his
activity against some of the heads OF
tire police department in Seattle, who
in searching about for some way in
which to strike back learned this chap
ter in Dore's career and notified the
Boston police.
The old indictment here was fished
out, and, not knowing that g partial
restitution had been made, word was
sent to Seattle that Dore was wanted.
The chances are that if the district at
torney had been aware at the time the
officers were dispatched that Dore had
tried to make good the wrong which
he had done, the expense of his return
would never have been incurred and
that he would have been permitted to
remain in Seattle in peace,
Dore had not seen his wife from the
time he left Boston nearly six years ago
until he arrived in the Fitchburg depot
yesterday morning. She was there to
meet him, accompanied by their boy,
and the greeting was most affectionate.

NEW CASTLE COAL MINE ON FIRE.
Men Below Saved Only by Prompt and
Heroic Action.

Seattle, Dec. IA fire broke out in
the Oregon Improvement Company's
New Castle coal mine at Coal creek, 10
miles from this city, at $50 this morn
ing and the creek was turned into the
mine to extinguish the flames. At a.
m. John Morgan found the fire on
the second level He put it out, but an
hour and half later another man saw
the fire coming from the breast of the
third level and gave the alarm. Morgan
started down the slope but sent back
for wrench and while waiting the
flames burst out and he abandoned the
attempt. This delay saved him from
certain death.
In the midst of the wild confusion
superintendent Anderson telephoned
below telling the 125 men in the mine
how to escape and stayed at the tele-
phone until the fire drove him away.
By this time the 125 men had come out,
but more remained, and five men, VIII
Han, Andrew Reynolds, John Erickson.
Andy Stewart and John Morgan went
down the air shaft to warn them,
though the slope was burning within a
hundred feet.
The fans were kept going, though they
famed the flames and enormously in
creased the loss and the men worked
like demons to keep the flames from
them, for moments stoppage would
have meant death, The last man was
brought out at 2:3O p. m, and the roll
was called. The openings were then
stopped, Coal creek damned and turned
into the mine and tomorrow the fans
will be reversed to draw out the smoke,
while the men go down to fight the fire.
The machinery and top works were
saved, except the roof of the slope, but
p mules, harness, cars and other losses
aggregate $4,000

London, Dec 1S.-The details OF the

and pretty woman, who was known as
Clarice Norton, the wife Of a cabman.
Before the burial had taken place. how

New Orleans, Dec. 16.-James Barry

pointed, and says he will pay no at
tention to Connors in the future. Tom
my Ryan has also departed. Lavigne
is detained by the police. AS soon as he
can get away, he will go home and rest
for three months. He will not retire
from the ring, but will try for match
with Johnson of Minneapolis Bowen's
funeral takes place in the morning. The
grand jury will begin the investigation
at the same time and fix the blame
for the death.
Governor Foster said this evening:
Il have always been very positive and
emphatic in my opposition to glove con-
tests as carried on in New Orleans by
professional prize fighters. 1 regard
them as brutal exhibitions and in no
wise calculated to elevate the tone of
public morals in the community. When
the effort was made to have the Cor
bett-Mitchell fight take place in New
Orleans, l determined to exhaust all
the power of the state to prevent it
and so declared at that time. The IN
fortunate termination of the Lavigne-
Bowen contest accentuates the impor-
lance of prohibiting any such further
exhibitions"

Allen two inches in diameter. tearing
out both heart and lungs. Aliens

Salt Lake, Dec. 1S.-The canvassing
board opened the ballot box for one poll
in the third precinct of this city on
the claim that there was a discrep-
ancy between the tally sheet and the
poll list. Under the recount all the re-
publican delegates to the constitutional
convention lose so votes and the demo-
Gratis gain correspondingly The popu-
list vote was unchanged. This defeats
two republican delegates who were
elected on the face of the returns, one
Of them being Apostle John Henry

leaves 81 republicans and democratic

Employees of Railway in ireland
Have Been MisIead.
FULLY FIFTY THOUSAND PEOPLE
TIE Findings Of Arbitrators Disra garded
and Refusal to RecogOize En-
ployes as Body.

New York, Dec. 1S.-A dispatch from
London says: A strike of between
$500 and 1900 employees of the Great
Southern and Western Railway of Ire
land is imminent, and as this would
be the greatest railroad strike in the
labor history of Great Britain there is
great excitement in labor circles. Bal
lot papers were sent out yesterday to
every employe of the railroad in cues
ton upon which they are to vote YES
or no on the question of sending in
their notice to cease work. These pa
pers are returnable to the Dublin Of
fees of the society on the last of the
present month and if a majority are ir
favor of strike there will be a general
walkout along the entire system be-
tween the fifth and ninth of January.
Mr.. Edward Hartford, the general
secretary of the Amalgamated Society
OF Railroad Servants of England, Ire
land, Scotland and Wales said today in
an interview: This trouble in some
particulars has a resemblance to the
recent railroad troubles in America. The
dispute arose in 1890 upon the question
OF wages and hours and a strike was
imminent at that time when we agreed
~ ouOuill " the OF Arch
bishop Walsh Michael Davitt and
Professor Galbraith. These made an
award that the men should continue
at work on the understanding that GER
tain concessions should be made by the
railroad directors. The latter however.
withheld certain important concessions,
included in the decision of the arbitra-
tors. We stood this for time, but re-
Gently the agitation was renewed with
the result that the directors offered
further alleged concessions which the
men unanimously rejected. Thereupon
the directors refused to give further
consideration to the demands of the
men, to recognize the society or even to
receive a delegation from their en-
ployes. Hence the officers have-no other
recourse than to take a ballot on the
question of a strike. It is to be hoped
that the directors will come to reason,
but at present they seem to be decid-
edly obstinate" If the strike goes
into effect it will affect between the
strikers and their families, shippers
and others fully fifty thousand people.
