To- TRADITIONS Proved to
Be Trustworthy

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-Mr. F. w
Hodge Of the bureau of ethnology
Smithsonian institution, has just re-
turned from an expedition to the EN-
chanted Mesa" of New Mexico, which has
excited the interest of scientists and the
daring of exploring parties The pur-
pose of the investigation has been to de-
termine whether the summit Of the mesa
was at one time inhabited by the pre-
historic Acoma Indians. After scaling
the mesa, Hodge spent some time on the
summit. found number of fragments
of pottery, arrows, shells, bracelets,
stone axes, etc, which proves conclu-
sively that the top Of the mesa was at
one time inhabited.
The top of the mesa was determined to
be 431 feet high from the plain. and the
talus al the base of cliff 224 feet above
the plain. The ascent consumed ex-
actly two hours.
During the afternoon and the night
Mr.. Hodge examined the ground critic
ally and secured number of photo
graphs, several potsherds. two stone
axes (b :oken), a fragment of a shell
bracelet and a stone arrow-point, the
chief evidences Of former occupancy of
the storm-swept crest, but abundant
potsherds, etc., were found. in. the talus
also, swept down from the summit
Mr.. Hodges researches will arouse
great interest among American ethnol-
ogists, inasmuch as they are said to show
that Indian tradition should not be dis
missed as mere myths after only casual
exploration.

A STEAMER AGROUND
Is NOT DAMAGED BUT STUCK
VERY HARD
2, 81 Ward Liner Niagara Runs on the
Colorado Shoals, Santiago de
Cuba

HAVANA, Sept. 12.-It was due to the
courtesy of Admiral Navarro. the Span
ish naval commander in Cuban waters
that the correspondent of the Associ-
ated Press has been able to obtain de-
tails from Santiago de Cuba of the
grounding on the Colorado Shoals, off
the harbor Of Santiago de Cuba, Of the
Ward Line steamship Niagara, Captain
Crocker, from New York August 26th.
via Nassau, on August S0th, for Gun
tananmo, Cienfuegos.
1t appears that the Niagara was en-
tering the harbor at Santiago de Cuba
from Cienfuegos in ballast. The water
was smooth and the weather fine, but
owing to her fouling her rudder, on ac-
count of currents, the steamer grounded
on rocky bottom. The Spanish gun
boat Estrella and the tugboat Colon i'm
mediately went to her assistance and
tried to pull her off, but without success.
The British steamer Hameluke, a DOW
erful vessel. made an attempt to float the
Niagara yesterday morning, exhausting
all efforts. But, although assisted by
the Colon, it is doubtful whether the Nj
agara can be floated.
The pilot who was in charge of the Nj
agara has been suspended by the marine
authorities until the exact cause of the
disaster can be ascertained
The Niagara, according to the latest
reports received here, is not leaking.
Her machinery still works well. The
Santiago passengers of the Niagara
have been landed and the others are on
board. The captain of the port of San
tiago considers the accident to the Nj
agara serious, but believes with the re.
sources at the disposal of the Santiago
de Cuba officials the Niagara can be
floated.
