PLUNGED into THE BAY,
Scores of Japanese Soldiers
Killed in a Railroad
Disaster.
The Train on Which They Rode
Swept Off the Seawall by
Huge Wave.

KOBE, JAPAN, July 28.-A frightful acci-
dent in which lao soldiers perished has
occurred on the railroad running from this
place to Osaka.
A train of twenty three cars was convey
ing to this city 400 Japanese soldiers, who
were returning from China where they had
taken part in the military operations. A
heavy storm was raging, and as the train
was running along the seawall on which
the tracks as they approached the city are
laid, an immense sea leaped over the wall,
separating the train and derailing the en-
gine and eleven cars, which plunged off
the wall into the bay. Most of the men in
them were drowned like rats in trap.
The accident occurred at about o'clock
in the morning, and the night was pitch
dark. The sea was running so high that it
was impossible to render any assistance in
the cars that had gone overheard, even
had means been at hand to do SO. Some
of the men who managed to get out of the
cars while they were in the water were
dashed to death against the wall.

LIGHTNING KILLED SEVEN
Every Member of One Family

Loss OF Life and Destruction of
Property Caused by
Cyclone.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 2s.-During cy-
clone yesterday seven people were killed
by lightning at the town of Three States.
They were: George Mcclellan. Mrs. George
Mcclellan, three Mcclellan children, -
Thomas and Mrs. Thomas.
The cyclone struck the village of Three
States, which is situated about fifty miles
south of here. A shanty-boat which was
tied at the bank was struck by lightning,
which instantly killed the owner, George
Mcclellan, and his wife and fatally injured
his three children, who have since died.
Their home is said to have been Kenosha,
Wis.
Three miles west of the village, at Barns
Ridge, farmhouse was struck and
Thomas and his wife were instantly killed.
The gale was from the west. The smoke
stack OF the Three States Milling Com
pany's mill was blown down. The stack
was 126 feet high, made of steel and well
braced. The chimney did no damage. A
large number of persons who sought refuge
in the mill were badly frightened, but es-
capped unharmed. The cyclone literally
cut swath through the woods about 100
yards wide, uprooting trees and filling the
air with flying debris.

LYNCHED BY ROBBERS,
An Aged Negro Hanged to
Prevent a Threatened
Expose.
Out Gang of Tennessee
Thieves.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 2S.-Charles
Burwell, an aged negro, was lynched near
Meridian. Miss, last night. 1t was at first
supposed that he had been hanged for
completely in some of the hoId-ups and at
tempted murders in that vicinity, which
recently excited the people to fever heat.
1t was thought that he was concerned in
the Farmer outrage, which occurred near
where he was hanged. On the night of
July Lewis Farmer and his wife were
murderously assaulted and left for dead.
after which their store was robbed. The
perpetrators escaped, and at present sew
eral suspects are confined in jail. When
news of the lynching was received, the gen.
eral impression was that Burwell was one
of the parties to the crime.
Later developments, however, seem to
fasten the lynching on the real robbers,
since it is learned that the old negro, Bur-
well, was promised a reward of $3.50 to ferret
out the guilty parties, and this becoming
known to them they went to his house,
dragged him to the Sowashee bridge and
strung him from beam.
A Coroner's jury rendered q verdict that
he came to his death at the hands of un-
known parties.

MANY MADE BIGAMISTS.
Startling Effect of a Late De-
Cision by the Supreme
Court.
LATER MARRIAGES ARE NULL.
Those Who Had Again Welded
Are Now in a Sorry
Plight.

GUTHRIE, Ok, July 2S.--The Supreme
Court, in pointing out that the divorces
granted during the past two years by the
Probate Court Judges here are invalid, has
caused the greatest excitement. The de-
cision affects many prominent and
wealthy men and women all over the
country. These cases will be carried to the
Supreme Court of the United States, and,
if lost there, an effort will be made to get
Congress to pass an act legalizing the di-
Yorces so granted. A great many will,
however, in the meantime come back to
Oklahoma and secure new divorces in the
District courts, where the present condi-
tions are as liberal as they were in the Pro
bate courts.
The Territorial Legislature some years
ago unintentionally repealed the law al
lowing Probate Judges the right to grant
divorces, but it was not until year and a
half later, when the Supreme Court, in
passing on other points in divorce case,
also pointed out this repeal. that 1t became
known, and in the meantime Probate
Judges of the Territory had granted be-
tween 600 and 700 divorces. Three-fourths
of these were to people from Northern and
Eastern States, who took advantage of the
law allowing divorce for. nearly twenty
causes after only ninety days residence in
the Territory.
Ii this incidental opinion of the court
was to hold as final these people would be
in queer predicament, especially as a
large majority had afterward married, so
large fund was raised and prominent at
fn IN lu ho
case and the court last night decided in
the same way as before, declaring that the
divorces granted by Probate Judges after
the repeal OF 1898 were null and void. All
subsequent marriages of parties SO divorced
were bigamous, and any issue of said mar
riages illegitimate.

FARM HOUSES BURNING.
FIERY PATH A MILE LONG.

REDDING, CAL, July 2s.-An immense
fire can be seen tonight raging east of Red
ding, apparently about three miles distant.
1t is in the vicinity of Churn Greek, and
the heavy black smoke indicates that farm
houses are burning.
A strong south wind is blowing and the
flames, which can be seen plainly from
Redding, are spreading northward with
great rapidity. The extent of the fire appears
to be now about mile long and it is still
travelling. No messengers have yet come
in, but from the location it is feared the
farmers along Churn Creek are suffering
tonight and fighting for the safety of their
neighbors and upper Churn Greek.
The blaze and the reflection in the sky
presents brilliant scene from Redding,
and hundreds of people are out gazing at
the spectacle.

Detectives Thacker and Snyder of the
Wells-Fargo Express Company, Sheriff
Johnson and his deputy, was rapidly
driven through the city and over the
bridge that spans the Sacramento River to
the supposed locality of the secreted treas
ure. Here, under Brady's directions, an
actlVe search was instituted but without
avail. Some fortunate individual had evil
IDENTIFY been there beforehand. The money
had disappeared.
Brady seemed fully as disappointed at
MS inability to recover the treasure as
were the officers themselves, for it has been
long understood that Wells, Fargo & Co.
would cheerfully forego prosecution could
they OBTAIN the return of the money. and
the probability is that Brady depended to
great extent upon their promise to secure
his freedom, and it was probably for the
purpose OF securing immunity from prose-
cutlon that he revealed the alleged confess
sion OF Browning as to the location of the
stolen treasure.
After the search had been abandoned
ana Brady had been returned to his cell
IN IN the county Jail he was visited by
oherlff. Cunningham of Stockton. Brady
recognized him Immediately.
Hello, Sheriff." he said, extending his
hand. "How are your"

A look of chagrin crept over the face of
the veteran Sheriff as he acknowledged
that such was the fact.

scrlptlon and pictures that were in the
hands OF the officers, and it was the knowl-
edge OF this fact that made me so reckless

SACRAMENTO COUNTY SUIT
1t Is to Be Brought Against
the Southern Pacific
Company.
Attempt to Be Made to Recover
$4,000 Said to Have Been IL
legally Paid.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, July 28.--Suit
will be brought against the Southern Pa
cific Railroad Company for the recovery of
$4,000, claimed to have been illegally paid
to them by the Board of Supervisors of
Sacramento County for the building of a
bridge across the Sacramento river, be-
tween Yolo and this city.
Over year ago an agent of the railroad
company appeared before the Board of
Supervisors of Sacramento County and
represented that the present bridge was
becoming so dilapidated as to be positively
unsafe, and that it was the intention of the
company to Immediately erect a new
structure.
He also said that the Board of Super
visors of Yolo County had voted $40, 600
toward the erection of a new bridge, and
said that the company would agree to erect
double roadway, the one to be used by
vehicles to be above the roadway used for
the passage of trains, upon the condition
that $4,000 cash be paid down by the
Board of fSupervisors of Sacramento County
before work was commenced, and $15,0G0
more on the completion of the bridge.
These were the only specifications pre-
sented, and upon them vote OF the board
was taken which resulted favorably. and
the money was paid.
During the late session of the Grand
Jury the matter was brought to it's atten-
ton, and after inquiry it directed District
Attorney Frank D. Ryan to institute pro-
ceedings for the recovery of this amount.
Deputy District Attorney Charles T.
Jones is at the present time engaged in
preparing these papers, and as operations
for the building of this bridge have already
been commenced and there is no doubt but
the railroad company will fight the case,
these papers have to be prepared with ex-
traordinary care, as they will have to bear
the close inspection of some of the leading
legal talent in the State.
There are other methods of procedure by
which this money may be regained-for
instance, suit against the County Treas
urer, who actually paid the money; against
the Auditor, who passed the claim, or
against the individual members of the
Board of Supervisors who voted for it's
payment, but as the main thing is to re-
cover the sum District Attorney Ryan has
deemed it advisable to proceed against the
company.

Drosoning Man.
NEW YORK, N. Y, July 2S-Two of
the cruiser New York's men who tried to
desert from the ship last night came near
being drowned, and one of them was only
saved from death by the prompt action of
Lieutenant Dashiell, assistant naval con-
structor of the navy. One of the deserters,
who was about ten feet away from his fell
low cried out that he was drowning, and
the next moment sank below the surface
of the water. The other paid no attention
to his cries. The drowning man appeared
on the surface of the water once more,
uttered despairing gurgle and again
sank.
Lieutenant Dashiell grabbed hold of
coil of rope, and, unwinding it, sprang over
the rail of the ship into the water. He
saw the drowning mans head come to the
surface a few feet away from him, reached
out and grabbed hold of the head. By
this time the men had got the boat ready
and were rapidly descending the side of
the ship. the lieutenant and his burden
were soon pulled into the boat, and the
other man was captured.
The deserters were Kemp, a landsman
employed on the New York, and Lock-
wood, al apprentice.

REDDING, CAL, July 28.-W. W. Wins
low, resident OF Oakland, employed on
the Pacific Press, the organ of the Ad-
ventists in that city, was accidentally shot
at cabin near Tower House, eighteen
miles from this city, late yesterday after
noon.
Winslow and his brother-in-law, Horace
Lyle, had been out on hunting expedi-
ton in Trinity County and returned yes
terday to the cabin belonging to E. P.
Conner, the stepfather of Lyle.
After resting half day, the two men
began cleaning their guns and arranging
for another trip. Lyle was at work clean
ing his shotgun. He finished the task
and put in shell. Winslow was sitting
about three feet away, when in some man
ner the gun was discharged. The charge
entered Winslow's left leg just below the
knee, going clear through the flesh and
bone. The charge grazed Winslows right
leg and took the skin and some flesh off.
Winslow, though suffering intense pain,
tied handkerchief around mis- leg above
the wound and held it while his brother
in-law went TO the Tower House for assist
ance. Dr. M cCielland of French Gulch
was called and dressed the wound, and
John Shed conveyed the victim to this
city, arriving here this evening, when the
wound was again dressed by physician
here, 1t is serious and Winslow may lose
his leg.
Winslow will be taken to his home in

OF MEMPHIS SUNK
A Rumor That the Steamer
Went Down in the Mis-
sisSippi.
Over TWo-Score Passengers Said
to Have Lost Their
Lives.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. July CIT was ru-
nored here last night that the large and
elegant steamer Belle of Memphis, owned
by the Anchor Line Company, and rnn-
ming between this city and st. Louis, was
sunk this evening about sixty miles north
of this city. The report has it further that
forty or more lives were lost. At this
hour q A. NJ it appears highly improbable
that the rumor can be either confirmed or
denied, as every resource has been ex-
hausted. There is no line along the river,
although few telephone connections
exist. One of these is with Osceola and
another is by the way of Dyersburg, but
neither of them could be raised tonight.
The only possibility lies in the coming of
some one from the boat to this city for re-
lief, in the event the accident has occurred,
as was done in the case of the steamer
Lady Lee two weeks ago. The Lee, how
ever, went down only fourteen miles above
here.
The Belle of Memphis was due here last
night, and reached Cairo, southbound, at
4: 80 o'clock yesterday afternoon. A fea-
ture of the rumor that gives it some force
is that which states with accuracy the
number OF passengers aboard. The list
includes large delegation of Memphis
people taking advantage of q cheap excur-
sion rate and making the round trip on the
steamer.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 29.-The rumor of
the sinking of the Anchor line steamer,
Belle of Memphis, had not been verified
by the officers of the company in this city
at o'clock this morning Tho delav of
the steamer is thought by the officials to be
due to accident. The boat left here at 6
P. NJ. Friday last for Memphis with a
number of round-trip excursionists on
board under careful management.
