PORT TOWNSEND FEARS.
The Revenue Launch Black
Pup Supposed to Have.
Been CapsiZed.
She Has Been Out Four Days on
Run That Usually Takes but
Eight Hours.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, July 15.-
The non-arrival of the United States reve-
nue. launch Black Pup from Roche Harbor
occasions the general belief here that the
little vessel has been swamped in the
straits. She left Roche Harbor Thursday
last. bound for this port, and although the
run usually consumes eight hours, the
launch has not yet arrived and so far no
report of the vessel has been received.
Searching parties are now out, but thus
far have found no trace of the launch.
The vessel is regularly attached to this
district to assist customs officers in the
suppression of smuggling contraband
opium and Chinese from British Columbia.
She is under command of Lieutenant Hor-
ace B. West, who until recently was first
lieutenant of the United States cutter VOL
colt. He was detached from the cutter
upon arrival here from San Diego recently,
bound for her station at Sitka.
The Black Pup carries also four sailors
from the cutter Grant now in Bering Sea.
She has been stationed at Roche Harbor
for some years and has been most success
full in the smuggler chasing service.
Two years ago, under command of West,
she captured the launch Sibyl with ten
contraband Chinese aboard. The Sibyl
was later confiscated by the Government
and is now under special detail, testing
coal on the Sound for the Government.
If the Black Pup is not reported by day.
light tomorrow the feet of searching ves-
sells now out under the direction of Captain
Frank Tuttle will be doubled and sys-
tematic search of all the islands will be
made for the vessel or her wreckage.

ANGELS CAMP Fatality
A Miner Blown to Pieces by a
Blast at the Bottom of
a Shaft.
His Death Due to His Gross Dis
obedience OF the Rules Of
the Mine.

ANGELS CAMP, CAL, July ia ter
rible accident occurred in the Blair mine
near here last night. Two blasts had been
set off, but one of them failed to fire.
Lazarus Castro and Jose Costa were let
down the shaft to again ignite the fuse that
communicated with the charge that had
failed to explode.
The rules require that when men are
in the bucket six bells shall be rung, when
the pucket should be raised four feet to
show that everything is in order. One
bell then means to hoist.
When Costa was ready to light the fuse
he asked Castro if all was ready, and the
latter replied yes Costa applied the cam
die, which was extinguished by the fuse,
but Castro had failed to ring the precau-
tionary six bells. The bucket had caught
on the skid, but when one bell was rung
the engineer apprehended that a mistake
had been made and attempted to hoist, but
the bucket would not move.
Costa realized the danger and sprang
for drift about eight feet above, yelling
at his comrade to follow. The latter hest
tated and the blast went off while he was
in the bucket. He was literally torn to
pieces. Although Costa had but one foot
in the drift at the time he was uninjured.
as the force of the flying missiles was spent
against the bucket and its human load.
If Castro had given the proper signals
the fact that the bucket had caught would
have been ascertained before the fuse was
lighted, and the horrible accident would
have been averted.

MENACED BY NEGROES,
The Lynching of a Murderer
Causes an Uprising of
Blacks.
Troops Ordered Out at Greenville,
S. c., to Prevent Them From
Retaliating.

COLUMBIA, S. c., July 16.-Johnson,
the negro who one week ago murdered
Frank Langford at Piedmont, Greenville
County, because he told him to put up a
pistol he had drawn on Langford's COM
panion, was taken out of the Greenville
Jail at 2 o'clock this morning, conveyed q
mile out of town and hanged.
The jailer refused to give up the keys,
but the mob found them in his room. The
Sheriff being awakened approached the
jail, but was halted by sentinel, who put
the barrel of shotgun to his face. A
crowd of negroes who were guarding the
Jail were dispersed by the police. Being as
sured there was no danger of lynching the
jail was not guarded last night.
There is great excl tement in the town OF
Greenville tonight. At midnight two
military companies have been ordered
out. One is at the Jail and the other rest
ing on their arms at the armory. The fire
engines have steam up and citizens are
guarding their homes. This is caused by
threat to lynch Lewis, white man
charged with numbering negro and con-
fined in Jail, and by the further dread that
the people fear the application of the
torch to their houses during the night.
The promise of the Greenville authorities
to protect the prisoner, Johnson, after
having prevented the negroes from doing
so is what caused the bitter feeling, partic-
ularly as Johnson's counsel says he has
six witnesses to prove that Langford
snapped his pistol at Johnson five times
before the negro was shot.

ROUT OF THE LIBERALS,
Meeting Crushing Defeat in
Many of Their Former
StronghoIdS.
Opposition Gains Shown In Nearly
Every District Where Elections
Have Been Held.

LONDON, July 15.-The returns received
thus far show the election Of 149 Conserva-
tives, twenty-five Unionists and twenty
five Liberals, four anti-Parnellites and four
Parnellites. The total number of seats
gained by the Unionists is nineteen.
II any further proof of the change of
opinion of the constituencies is wanted, it
was furnished to-day in the districts in
which contested elections were held. Itdoes
not require the gift of prophecy to be able
to foretell disastrous defeat for the Lib
erals. Some of the districts that have
heretofore been rabid Liberal strongholds
have to-day given Unionist maiorities, and
the indications are that this will be re-
peated in many districts where elections
are to be held.
Contested elections were held TODAY in
the following districts, with these results.
Hereford-W. S. Radcliffe Cooks (Con-
servative) 1869. Sir Robert Edgecom be
(Libersl) 1856. Conservative majority. 313:
gain, 169. Mr.. Cooks represented the dis
trict in the last Parliament.
Boston-William Garfit (Unionist) 1893.
Sir w. J. Ingram (Liberal) 1887 Unionist
majority, 1896; gain, 43s. Sir w. J. Ingram,

HORR TO MEET HARVEY,
A Ten Days Debate Between
Champions of Gold and
Silver.
Their Object to Reach the Truth In
the Most Direct and Con-
Vincing Manner.

CHICAGO, I'LL, July 15.-Ex-C Congress
man Roswell G. Horr. one of the most
forcible and conclusive orators of the day,
representing the gold standard, will meet
tomorrow night, as challenge circular
states, his opponent, William H. Harvey,
the exponent of the theory of a silver
standard at 16 to 1. and author of "Coin s
Financial Schools" to discuss the none
tary system of the United States with the
purpose to reach the truth in the most
direct and convincing manner, stripped Of
all romance and all rhetoric, not upon the
public platform, where the excitement of
the hour might sway judgment, but with
the quietness and calm of deliberate dis.
cussion."
The debate will probably last ten days,
beginning at 2 o'clock every day and last
ing two hours and forty minutes, until
100000 words have been spoken or until
one side gives up. No such debate has
ever been planned before. Charles H.
Aldrich will be the judge for Horr and
Judge Henry Miller for Harvey.

Three Militia officers to Be Tried on a
Number of Charges.
TUCSON, ARIz., July ia court-mar-
tial composed of the following officers OF
the National Guard of Arizona is now sit
ting in Tucson: Major J. A. Black, presid-
ing; Captains ingalls,, Mullen, Wickham
Lieutenants Carpenter and Jones; Major
R. A. Lewis, judge advocate, assisted by
Lieutenant LAVAL, United States regular
army.
Captain Trayer and Lieutenant Riesgo,
of Company F and Lieutenant Hughes of
Company n are to be tried. In the Fourth
of July procession the bicyclists and the
bicycle "horribles" were assigned to lead
the procession. After marching a block
Captain Trayer halted Company F and this
stopped the procession. Colonel Martin
inquired the cause and Captain Trayer
said the company refused to march back
of the bicycles.
Colonel Martin ordered Lieutenant
Hughes, commanding Company D, to ar
rest Captain Trayer. Hughes declined and
was ordered to march Company D ahead
of Company F. Hughes again declined.
The Governor and Adjutant- General of
the Territory have ordered Company F
disbanded and their accoutrements turned
in, and the court-martial is trying the
above-named officers on a number of
charges. Great interest is manifested all
over the Territory in the outcome.

MONTEREI,S ENCAMPMENT.
Ground Being Prepared for the Great
Sham Battle.

Ground Being Prepared for the Great
Sham Battle.
MONTEREY, CAL, July 15.-Far up in
the foothills, near pretty grove of oak
trees, little white city of tents has sprung
up. These are to be the homes of about
800 regular soldiers from the Presidio, who
will arrive on Wednesday next. Already
there have arrived several troops, who
have been busy preparing for this great
outing.
The soldiers will be in camp for two
months, and in that time some lively times
will be had. All kinds of amusements and
sports have been arranged, but the biggest
event will be the sham battle. For a
month past detachment of privates have
been busy clearing the chaparral and max
ing paths through the woods for the battle.
1t promises to be the largest and most ex-
citing one ever fought near Monterey.
Among other characteristics will be the
representations of old-time battles and
skirmishes that took place in Monterey
during the late trouble with Mexico, when
General Sherman was in camp at Mon
terey, then the capital of California.
The officers will not go into camp; most
of them are already booked for the Del
Monte. Among those already there are
General Schaffner, Colonel Young, Lieu
tenants Beel, Lands, Rutherford, Greene,
Khun and Dale.

sEATTLE,s MURDER MYSTERY.
No Definite Cle,U to the SJayers of Rancher
Stokes.

No Definite C1etc to the SIayers of Rancher
Stokes.
SEATTLE, WASH, July 15.-The mys-
terry surrounding the death of Ransom B.
Stokes, the wealthy Sunnyside rancher
whose body was found in brush heap,
partly charred, few days ago, deepens.
The authorities seem to have rather
weak case against Charles and Fred Kind
ling, who are under arrest on suspicion of
being his murderers.
The inquest will probably not determine
anything. To-day it was ascertained that
Stokes had nearly $4,000 on deposit in q
local bank. The authorities have also
learned that two watches belonging to
Stokes are missing and believe they were
pawned in Tacoma, and that the Kindling
boys were in that city recently. Clothing
belonging to the Kindling boys has been
found which bears stains resemb bling blood,
and Just now discussion is going on be-
tween the Coroner and the County Com
missioners as to whether an analysis of
the clothing stains shall be made.
That Stokes has money concealed in his
house seems to be certain. He was an
eccentric man. When a laborer had fin
ished working for him he would never pay
him, but ask him to call the next day
when the money would be forthcoming,
although Stokes had never visited town in
the meantime. He had evidently taken it
from its hiding-place.

CAMP LEDYARD PAST|MES,
The Lads of the Boys Brigade
Spend Most Enjoyable
Day.
A Trip on a Steam Launch and a
Drive to the Grove Of
Big Trees.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, July 15.-The Boys
Brigade camp is back again to the regular
routine of duties. The drilling shows a
marked improvement over last week, and
the discipline of the camp is perfect. The
boys are keeping up the reputation of be-
ing the best behaved set of boys ever in
town.
Captain Fred Howe was the officer of the
day and Lieutenant EIDE officer of the guard
to-day.
At dress parade the brigade was reviewed
by State President Ledyard, and the boys
did well.
Tonight at the Sea Beach Hotel parlors
q grand reception was rendered the COM
missioned officers by Brigadier General
Russell.
A large part of the day was devoted to
pleasure, swimming, boating and fishing
being the chief pastimes. At the camp
grounds ball was enjoyed, and the lads,
not to be outdone by the militia, were en-
joying themselves immensely by tossing
the smaller lads of the camp in the air
with the aid of blanket.
President Ledyard, with large number
of the boys, took a trip on the steam
launch on the bay and stopped at Capitola
for few hours. The boys enjoyed the
trip immensely. A party of twenty-one
passed the day at the big trees, driving to
the grove through the beautiful San To-
renzo Canyon. At the grove they had din
ner, and after returning to town went to
the natural bridge and took the famous
cliff drive. Those in the party were Brig
adler General Russell and Major General
Woodham and their wives, President
Smith, J. NJ. Case, a party of ladies, and
the generals non-commissioned staff.
The band took part tonight in an enter
tainment at the plunge baths. Tomorrow
night grand concert will be given at the
carnival pavilion, and on Wednesday a
baseball game will be played atVeu de Eau
Athletic Park between the brigade team
and the town team.

COURT.MARTIAL AT TUCSON.
An Insane Passenger Jumps From
a Rapidly Moving Train and
Is Killed.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, July 15.-Frank
Romer shot and killed B. M. Ullery at
Downey, little after o'clock this morn
ing. Three shots were fired, all entering
the right breast in close proximity to the
heart. Ullery died almost instantly.
Romer would say nothing about the
tragedy and would give no reason for his
act. He appeared to be cool and self
possessed.
Ullery had many friends in town, and
they believe his killing was cowardly and
unjustifable. He was a barber and not
over 26 years of age. Romer is laborer
and does such work as he can find. The
men had some trouble the night before.

Los ANGELES coUNTERFEITERs.
Orn.andy and His Entire Family Ar
raigned Before a Commissioner.

TOtNhcu DcjOTO ~ commissioners
LOS ANGELES, CAL, July 15.-J. H.
Ormandy, the man held last week to await
the action of the United States District
Court for wholesale counterfeiting, his
wife, his pretty 17-year-old daughter and
his 12-year-old son, constituting the entire
family, were arraigned before United
States Commissioner Van Dyke this after
noon on a charge of having made and
passed counterfeit halves, quarters, dimes
and nickels.
1t was the first time that whole family
has been arraigned before the Commits
sioner and there were many spectators
taking in the queer spectacle.
Mrs. Ormandy and her daughter were
much affected and wept copiously during
the examination.
On motion of District Attorney Dennis
the case against the girl was dismissed.
The little boy will not be prosecuted at all.
Mrs. Ormandy was not examined. Her
case was postponsd ed until tomorrow.
1t is the belief of the authorities that
Ormandy is alone to blame. and the Gov
ernment does not propose to prosecute
those who were easily intimidated by
Ormandy into violating the laws.
