Brazil Trying to Prevent the Depart
ure of the italian Minister.
New York, July GA special from
Rio says that the government is en-
deavoring to dissuade the italian min
lister from leaving there on July z, as
he has threatened to do, in consequence
of the delay of the foreign Office in
settling Italy's claim. The govern
ment refuses to discuss the trouble
with the French in Amah, and has es-
tablished strict censorship over all
news from there.
At secret session Of the Argentine
congress, it was voted to purchase from
Italy the sister warship Garibaldi,
which was recently launched.
From Chill comes the news that the
government of the country, besides the
new Esmeralda, is having built a
8, 500-ton ship to be called the Con-
gress, with an armament slightly
greater than the Nuevn de Julio.
A correspondent in Sucrucre, Bolivia,
sends word that the political leaders
there have demanded that the govern
ment publish the terms of the treaty
recently arranged with Chill.
The feeling against that country runs
high in Bolivia just now. 1t is only
with the greatest difficulty that the au-
thorities can prevent an attack.

SCANDAL BACK OF 1T.
Some One to Blame for the Ludlow
Street Jail Affair.

Street Jail Affair.
New York, July 8.-The escape of
Kiloran. Russell and Allen from the
Ludlow street Jail yesterday morning
promises to develop a lively scandal.
They were detained there pending ex-
tradition to Illinois for the robbery of
the Springfield postofice. The officers
at the Jail have pretended to be greatly
puzzled over how the prisoners secured
the revolvers. It developed today,
however, that the three prisoners had
been allowed the greatest freedom.
Women were allowed to come into the
Jail and associate with them, and only
recently, it is learned, they spent a
whole evening in the reception room
playing bagatelle and dominoes with
women visitors. There now seems to
be little doubt as to how they secured
the weapons with which they bulldozed
their keepers,

Toronto, July a.-An alarming re-

condition of the braves on the Black

CAPTAIN WEBB KILLED
Fatal Plunge Down a Log
Chute in a Barrel.
IN COEUR D'ALENE COUNTRY
His Death Was Due to Neglect to
Take Proper Precautions for
His Own Safety.

Occur d'Alene, July 6.-In all proba-
bility Captain Paul Webb lost his life
near here today in an attempt to ride
his submarine boat or barrel down a
3OO-feot log chute. It is believed his
back is broken. About 500 people
watched the descent into Lake Occur
d'Alene, which took place at Rosen's
log camp, eight miles up the lake. On
the arrival of the boats at 4:3O a log
was sent down as test It came like
flash of lightning. A mild rain was
falling, which gave the chute a
smoothness that added momentum to
anything coming down it. The log
passed down safely, and Webb's ma
rine boat had been sent down in the
forenoon with success that gratified
the hazardous man, who at o'clock
was placed within the boat for his last
ride.
The affair was feet inches in di-
ameter, and cone-shaped. There was
a strip Of sheeting lengthwise on the
barrel to make it slide smoothly and
prevent it turning over too frequently.
On the inside it was upholstered with
carpets and rubber fixtures to strap
man in such way that the barrel
could strike on end in 1OO-foot fall
and not injure the occupant. Webb,
when placed in the barrel, neglected
to take all the precautions his machine
offered for safety. He was confident as
they tucked him in the fatal barrel.
He told his manager to have whistles
blown when he struck the water.
The signal was given, and the barrel
ran down the chute wildly. Two-thirds
of the way down was slight raise in
the incline. Here the barrel jumped
thirty feet in the air, striking on the
ground ON end, then rolling forty feet
further down the hill. Many persons
on the boat turned their heads with
horror. Some tainted, as all feared
instant death to Webb. When the bar
rel was opened, Webb was jammed
closely into the end. He was conscious
and talked freely. DR.. Russell, of Spo-
kane, examined him and pronounced
his spinal column broken. A tug was
procured, and the unfortunate man
hurried to Occur d'Alene and then to
Spokane.

in TURKISH PRISONS.
Advance Guard of the Armenian Revo
lutionists Captured.

Iutionists Captured.
Van, Armenia, May 30.-(Associ-
ated Press Correspondence)-The ad-
vance guard of the revolutionary party,
which, as announced week ago, was
betrayed by the Turkish government
the night of Sunday, May 10, is now
in prison in the city of Van. Only one
member of the party escaped, and he,
at the earliest possible moment, and at
great risk to himself, put himself in
communication with the correspondent
of the Associated Press. The latter is
now in possession of complete informa-
tion with respect to the prisoners. But,
as he is not disposed to furnish the
Turkish government information, SO
long as there remains the slightest
chance that these men may escape
death, he holds, for the present at
least, considerable part Of the facts
concerning them.
The men have been hiding in the
mountains waiting for reinforcements
and making plans for carrying on their
work. The weather having turned out
cold and wet, they went to the house
of Hahto, head man Of the Tchiboupla,
to warm themselves and dry their
clothing. Hahto was disposed to be
friendly to the Armenians, as he was
not Turk, and great numbers OF his
fellow w-countrymen had been massaered
by the Turks in the Mosul district In
1898.
Upon arriving at Hahto's house, the
men stacked their arms in the corner
and gathered about the fire. While
there, Hahto's scribe, Turk, called
his master out of the house and insist
ed that they be handed over to the
Turkish government. The scribe
threatened to denounee Hahto to the
government unless the men were be-
trayed. Hahto then called together a
force of Kurds and Vezides and order
ed them to make the capture. The
villagers went into the room one by
one and took part in the conversation.
At signal they seized the guns and
commanded the men to surrender.
Taken by surprise the revolutionists
made no resistance. OF the fourteen
members only one escaped. Each man
had Bedouin rifle and six of the party
had revolvers. The prisoners were
taken to Sevi the next day, and then
were marched sixty miles to Van,
where they arrived Wednesday. Their
arrival was witnessed by large num-
ber of Turks and Armenians. On the
way they were beaten by gun butts and
prodded with bayonets, and otherwise
maltreated.
