Baltimore, Md, Sept. 23.-The citizens OF
FowblesGurg, in the upper part Of Baltimore

weeks by a vicious boar, which has attacked
a number of citizens. Jacob E. Benson,

Monday.
He was attacked by the boar on his farm,
and attempted TO drive 1t away with clubs
The animal lcaped at Mr.. Benson, seized
him near the shoulder, and jumped on his
PROSTATE form, savagely biting him several
times and making terrible wounds and
tearing the flesh from his body. His loud
cries attracted the attention of several
neighbors, who ran to Mr.. BcHson's rescue
with axes, and drove the boar away.
1t was afterward captured by means OF
O laSSo, and is now securely confined. 1t
will be probably shot in a few day 1t has
been viewed by large numbsr Of persons.
Before attacking Mr.. PeEson, the boar

ed whip in his hand. and mana ged to keep
the animal away Until lie had urged his
horseto run at full gallop. Again and again
the boar attempted TO jump on the horses

and boar took place, and finally the latter
was left far behind. II was shortly after
this that Mr. Benson had his terrible en-

commerce, but is not one of the five tire atty
ports specifically opened to the United
Str ties by the treaty of 1858.
Nevertheless there seems to be many
American interests represented there and
-. Smith, agent" who is said to have
secured the coveted landing place. is ac-
credited with representing the Standar d
Oil Company and various other American
interests.
There is nothing on file at the State De-
partment to indicate that he has been, as
asserted from Shanghai, a representative
OF American missions. Nothing was
heard from him in this regard when Che
foo was menaced by the Japanese durln g
the late war.
The State Department will call the at
tention of Sheridan P. Reid, our Consul at
Tientsin, TO the matter; but it is scarcely
anticipated that any international COM
plications can arise out of it as affecting
the United States. 1t is regarded as simply
a commercial squabble between England
and Russia, with Russia at present on top.

NOT WITHIN The CODE
Judge Harrison Decides as to
Property Assess.
mentS.
Effort to Collect Just Taxes From the
Market.Street Company Is
Failure,

SACRAMENTO, CAL, May 13.-The ap-
plication for writ of mandate made by
a. Clunie against Assessor Siebe of San
Francisco to compel a reassessment OF
the Market-street Railroad property in
San Francisco was denied by the Supreme
Court to-day on the ground that the ap-
plication was not made in proper man
ner. This property is bonded in the sum
of ST., 800, 900 and was assessed at little
over s., 100000, and the writ OF mandate
was applied for TO compel an assessment
to the full valuation.
The opinion. which was written by
Judge Harrison, is lengthy, covering four
pages of typewriter matter, but a
synopsis of the opinion is to the effect that
the application fails to come within the
provisions of the section of the PoIitica
Code it is made under.
This particular section of the code makes
provision for the assessment of property
which has escaped taxation, and fails to
apply to the Market-street Railroad prop
erty, inasmuch as said property has been
assessed for a certain sum. The court
furthermore holds that it is in no sense q
board of equalization, and consequently
holds no jurisdiction in this matter.

STOCKTON, CAL, May 13.-An accident
shortly after noon to-day in the Soulsby
mine at SouIsbvville, about eight miles
from Sonora, caused the death of John
Mitchell and a number of other miners
were nearly suffocated.
The mine is under the charge of Super
intendent Lundberg, and he had three
men-John Mitchell, D. Sullivan and
Albert Slutten-at work on the 130-foot
level. They were working in the drift, and
below them at the bottom of the shaft were
Clarence Fame and Richard Martin. Just
after IL o'clock the men in the drift put in
blast, which they fired; but after leaving
the place when the fuse was lighted they
went back again before the gas caused by
the explosion was out OF the drift.
When they entered the gas-filIed drift
they were overcome by the noxious vapors.
and began calling for help. Those below
heard them, and sent up the bucket from
the bottom of the shaft. 1t was sent first
to Mitchell, but he was not able to get into
it, and fell back exhausted.
Richard Martin, who had been at the
bottom of the shaft, then went to their
assistance, and found that Sullivan was
supporting Slutten in his arms. They
were unable to help themselves, as the
fumes from the gas had them completely
under its influence.
AS soon as Martin stepped into the en-.
trance OF the drift he too was overcome,
tunnel or drift.
Fame did not hear his comrade, who had
been working with him in the bottom oi
the shaft, coming back, ~ he toe went ur
to see what was the matter. When he
neared the entrance of the drift he soon
discovered that something was wrong, and
went on up to the surface in search ot
help. He went down again with Charles
Harry, but when be reached the opening
of the tunnel, where the other men Law un.
conscious, he fell out of the bucket and
landed on timbers thirty feet below. He
was badly bruised but not dangerously
hurt,
After this Harry, in company with
Charles Roth and William Pierce. wen,
| down four times before they could rescue
the men who were in the gas-filled drift
The fumes were so dense that they could
not enter, and they had to go TO the sur
face repeatedly for air. They finally sue
ceeded in bringing Sullivan, Slutten and
Fame to the top, and then went back fol
Mitchell, who had suffered the worse from
the gases. When they got him to the sur.
face he was dead. The others were in such
a condition that grave fears are entertained
for their recovery.
There were twelve men in the mine Just
before the accident occurred, and Charles
Saunders and William Bradigan had Just
left the drift short time before the three
men had touched off the fuse.
There is great mourning in Soulsbyville
tonight, and the men who are suffering
from the results of their stay in the tunnel
are being given every possible aid. Nc
blame is attached TO any one.
