BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. Boy the
capsizing of the small pleasure yacht
of Rung Brothers this evening seven
men of the fifteen on board were
drowned. That there was not a great

of the life saving crew in getting to the
scene
The dead are:
Frank Buggmann, married.
Jacob Paulmann, married and has
three children.
Henry SCHNEIDER, married.
Charles Gisher.
Thomas f. Cannon, single.
Fireman, name unknown.
Stranger, name unknown.
The members of the party were en-
ployees of the East Buffalo live stock
yards. A strong wind was blowing
which made a heavy sea and as she was
entering the harbor q heavy sea swept
over her, completely engulfing the boat
and all on board. Most of the life pre-
servers were loose and easily grabbed
by those who had the opportunity or
presence of mind to do so. The sky
light of the engine was ffoated off as
the boat sank and this was seized by
some of the men. Two men grabbed

/, Butte, May. 1.-THE coroner's In
quest to-day over the body of Charles
A, Simmons. who was killed in the
FQagnon mine yesterday afternoon. w.
suited IN verdict Of death from the
mans own carelessness.
IT appeared from the evidence of sew
eral eye witnesses to the accident that
instead of leaning slightly backwards
in the skip and pulling the bell cord
with one hand, as In the usual custom.
Simmons leaned forward and pulled
the rope with both hands, and was
very slow about it. After giving one
bell, which is the signal to hoist the
empty skip, he paused from five to 10
seconds, and the engineer, naturally
supposing that all of the men were on,
took the Skip away. He was lowering
men atSfhe time. and had no thought
of anyone coming up, although he
waited the usual length OF time for the
signal William Bartle testified that
the engineer took the skip too quick,
but all of the other witnesses testified
that he waited fully as long as usual.
and that they could have given the
signal for the 700 while Simmons was
giving the first bell. James Hewitt
the mine foreman. and John Poad, the
shift boss. and all of the miners testi-
fed that the engineer. William Thomas
is a very careful man. Norman Gill
saw the skip start upwards with sim
mons leaning forward. and realizing
that the man would be killed in that
position he jumped to the electric dan
ger signal. but he could not get to Il
quick enough to avert the accident
although the cage was stopped a few
feet above the station.
Mr.. Simmons will be buried from his
late residence at No. SIS East Broad

!. Butte, May 15.-The county commits
sioners took a notion to-day TO inquire
into the matter of forfeited bonds on
which no effort has been made to col
4ect. The clerk of the district court
dug up all bonds in state cases that
had been forfeited from one to three
years The defendants. with the
amounts of their bonds and names OF
sbondsrnen are as follows:

The total amount represented in the
IL bonds Is $3.50. but they are only a
small part OF all the bonds that have
been forfeited in the criminal court.
About a year ago the commissioners
Instructed the county attorney to sue
on the bonds. but he stated that they

written on and therefore did not bring
any suits on them. Many of the bonds
men named above are good for the
amounts they signed for and IL is
probable that the commissioners will
again try and collect on the bonds.
Many bonds have been forfeited dur
