The Trouble at Cripple Creek,

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, May 28.-The
sheriff of Woodford county telegraphed
Governor Altgeld that mob of strik-
ing miners is otstructing coal traffic on
the Illinois Central road; that . and
the municipal authorities have done all
they could and are calling for help.
He had sworn in force of deputies,
but had no arms or ammunition for
them. AS the governor had shipped
the last of the rifles in the state armory
to Elmwood or requisition from the
mayor of that place, he ordered two
companies Of the Fourth regiment to
start for Minonk at once to aid the
sheriff. All is quiet at Minonk, but the
miners refuse to ,allow coal trains to
move. The mayor of Elmwood wired
that the town had been visited twice by
mobs of strikers, and that he was in
formed that a much larger mob was
coming. Colonel Bennett at La Sale
wires that all has been quiet there.
Assistant Adjutant General Bayle at
Pana wires that everything is peaceful.

PuTsBURG. My *8-As the Balti-
more and Ohio Express No. 5, west
bound, reached the sharp curve at Pine
Grove station, nine miles this side of
Meyersdale, wreck occurred in which
two men " ere killed and one so severely
injured that he will probably die. A
huge rock, weighing about SO tons, had
been loosed from above on account of
the heavy rains of the past week and
fell square across the tracks. Owing to
the sharp curve at the scene of the acci-
dent, the engineer could not see the OBJ
struction until within a few feet of it,
consequently the engine crashed into
the obstruction with terrific force,
completely demolishing engine and
tender and wrecking three baggage
cars. The engineer, William Nichol-
son, was SO badly crushed and burned
that all of his remains to be found We're
gathered up and placed in bucket.
William H. Reinhart, fireman, Was
burned and scalded to death. The
three express cars caught fire and were
entirely consumed.

M UGH DAMAGE RESULTS.

Washington Rivers Out of Their Banks.
Higher Than Ever Known.
PORTLAND, Or, May 28.-The entire
Northwest is Just now suffering from a
flood, caused by melting snow in the
mountains. The Willamette is now
25 feet above low water mark and the
river is rising at the rate of half an inch
an hour. At The Dalles, during the
past "a hours, the Columbia has risen
three feet. The water has reached
Front street and all day long merchants
have been removing goods to upper
stories. In Albino small houses are
under water and the occupants have
moved to higher ground. The Spokane
river and Cour d Alene lake are higher
than ever before known, and immense
damage has already been done to rail-
road property in Western Washington
and Northern Idaho. All rivers and
streams flowing into Puget Sound are
swoolen, many beyond their banks.
The damage 10 railroad property and
farming lands is very heavy.

Already the gold RESERVE, which had

the exception Of the gold reserve and
counting every availa BILE dollar in the
vaults in the treasury, the government
today has less than $50, 900 with
which to meet its obligations. Nor
does the future show any signs of en-
couragement. On the contrary, the
probable deficit of 100000 for the
month of May is likely to be increased
by $4,000, 600 during the two succeed

HARD COAL SCARCE.

Floods in the Anthracite Region Cause
Suspension of Trade.
PHILADELPHIA, May 28.-The anthra-
cite coal trade, like the bituminous
trade, is at a standstill, though from
vastly different causes. The floods
throughout the anthracite region have
flooded many of the mines, forcing a
suspension of work until the flooded
mines can be relieved of the surplus
water. The result of the enforced stop
page, together with the curtailed pro-
duction of the anthracite mining COM
panies for several months past has pro-
duced a scarcity OF hard coal, and espe-
cially is the case with the Reading
company, which has been compelled
within the past few days to decline or
ders.

a TOWN IN DANGER
The Missouri River Cutting Away
the Location of East At
Gibson, Kan.
GREAT EXCITEMENT PREVAILS
Many Buildings Being Torn Down
and Citizens Are Fleeing
for Safety.

ATCH1soN, Kan, May 2S.-During
the past IL hours the Missouri river has
risen nearly six feet. The raise was
rather sudden and great damage is be-
ing done to property in the vicinity of
East Atchison. During the past IL
hours the stream has cut away nearly
200 feet of adjoining land near that
town, and the work of destruction con-
tinues. The town of East Atchison has
been protected heretofore by strip Of
land known as the point, and which ex-
tended for several yards into the river.
This ''point" has been cut away, how
over, and the main current of the
stream strikes the town almost squarely
from the north. It will probably be
only question of few hours until the
current has full sway at East Atchison
from this direction, and then no power
on earth can save the place from being
swept away. Great excitement pre-
walls there and a great many persons
have moved to this side of the river for
safety. Store buildings and houses
which stood in the north end of the VIII
lage are being torn down or moved by
their owners.
Outside Help Assisting.
Laborers and teams FROM this city
and from the country surrounding East
Atchison have been sent there to assist
the citizens in removing their homes.
Just north of East Atchison there are
three lines of'rai]road paralleling each
other-the Rock Island, the Santa Fe
and Hannibal and St. Joseph. The
river has encroached to within less than
30 feet Of the tracks of these railways.
and it is possible that the railways will
be compelled to stop passing trains over
them. Several days ago a large force
of men were put to work by the rail-
road ripapping the bank in an effort
to stop the encroachment This was
stopped Saturday for the reason that no
bank could be secured to continue the
riprapping, and also that the stream
washed it out almost as fast as it was
placed there. .ilt ia Thought nothing can
kbe done now tos prevent the cattlng and
citizens are either preparing to leave
the place or standing illy by watching
the river on its mission OF destruction.
