WELL DIGGERS INJURED.
BY Lighting Match One of Them
Caused au Explosion.

Frank Foster and william Anderson, col
ored, had narrow escape from death yes
terday afternoon in Anacostia. The men
are well diggers and Were engaged In
cleaning out an old well on Franklin
street, when In some manner the exca walton
became filled with gas.
The men noticed the odor, and Ander-
son said to his companion that he would
strike u match and find out IL there vas
any gas in the well. Foster protested,
hut before he could interfere Anderson
pulled out his match safe and struck n
light. Instantly an explosion followed and
beth men were thrown violently to The
ground. Pass ersby heard their cries, and
they were pulled out OF the well.
1t was found that Foster had been burned
seriously about the hands and face, while
his COMPANION was suffering from shock.

and was sent TO his home, where DR.. Pyles

SPANS IDEA OF JUSTICE.
Notions of Madrid Journal About
Yellow Fever Invasion.

Madrid Sept. 1.-THE Beraldo, in an
editorial upon yellow fever, in Louisiana
says. Tie epidemic is the natural Con
sequence OF the frequency Of conmunlca-
lions between the insurgents encanlp
inents and American ports. The ins Ut
gents repay in this manner the protection
they get from the United States. This liz
the most practical result of the jinGoist
CAMPAIGN. Fillbusters have brought death
to Americans
I'VE hope chat the United States willnot
presen: claim for damages against Spain
for the importation of the epidemic II We
were not too sensible we would say u al
the epidemic is just punishment for
American perversty"

Granted that all these cargo IS have reach

is that the food supply, barely sufficient
to keep alive The people who We're in the
district before July /, will not suffice for
the 1000 around Dawson, and perhaps
1000 more In the Klondike district at
large, more than ttree or four months at
the outside. The only thing there will be
plenty of is whisky, and that fact will
not help to mend conditions OF famine To
mate matters worse, considerable per-

The yellow fever situation in Mississippi
and Louisiana is not as encouraging as
might be wished. Biloxi, Miss, reports
It's drug stores bare OF proper medicine
and the r1a yor has sent an appeal to New
Orleans for a supply. At Ocean Springs
there was one new and ole suspicious case
The mayor of the town IL asking for as
sissance, in the shape of provisions and
money. Thirty eight families are re-
ported as destitute. Fever patients are
greatly in need of trained nurses. The
twelve suspected cases on st. Cloud street,
New Orleans, have not yet developed con-
clusively. Advices OF the surgeon gen.
eral Of the Marine Hospital Service, in
dicate that yellow fever has made its ap.
pearance in several new places. An fur
loughs TO surgeons have been revoked. The
disease IS reported at Pascagoula and Park
inston, both in Mississippi. 1t looks
very much as IL there might be a sharp
autumn campaign in store for us, against
Yellow Jack. Fortunately Ii cannot be
a long one, as the season is too far adj
vanced.

According 10 our European dispatches
tie greatest excitement exists in govern
ment and newspaper circles in Madrid, over
the Capture OF the fortified town of Vic
torta de las Tunas, in Santiago province.
Cuba. Gen. Azcarraga, quite naturally
has addressed a very pointed inquiry 10
weyleT, asking him how it happens that a
strategic position Of prime Importance, de
Tended by seven hDrts well pro vided with
Cannon, including two kTupp guns Of large
caliber, should b. allowed to fall into the
hands Of an enemy sun described by wey-
Ter as consisting only OF predatory guerrilla
bands The captain general has replied
that an expedition Immediately would re
sent 10 retake the place. The principal fear
ia spain appears to be that the United
States might take advantage Of the fact o.
this capture to recognize Cuban bellicer
encv or Course IL might do SO. bat that Mr..
Mckinley would take a step the result OF
which ultimately would l'ring about Cuban
independence, is hardly to be thought of.
