discovery by any Inspection. This was on the low pressure shaft of the port engine. The result was to smash the entire engine and to burst the steam pipe connecting the high and intermediate cylinders The observ- CTS on the bow of the boat heard a great crash, and then saw vast cloud of steam burst from the engine hatch. Seemingly, every one in the engine room was killed, It happened, fortunately, that the pipe burst up ward, letting the steam escape in that direction, and the men below were enabled to make their way through the forward engine room to the deck forward
 Chief Engineer Edwards acted like a hero. He stood in the engine room until the last man had made his es- cape, and consequently he was him self scalded badly in the arms, while the men escaped without serious harm. It is believed that MT. Ed wards's injuries are confined to the loss of his skin on the arms, unless he has inhaled steam, which is now believed to be the case.
 AS the boat is not yet the property of the government, there will be no court of inquiry.

WANTS HEAVY DAMAGES.
Boulder Citizen Sued for Injuries to
 a House.

Boulder, Colo, Sept. 1S.-Last win ter a number of citizens of Boulder, with the consent of the county com missioners, constructed a wagon road in the mountains from Sunshine to RoweN}, at a cost of about $2,500 and made the county a present thereof. The object was to give teamsters from the mountains an easier grade to town and avoid the many up and down hill places on the road. During the con- struction of the road a large rock fell on a mountain house of Dan s. Golf man, breaking the roof somewhat and also injuring one of the walls. The committee offered to pay Golf man for actual damages sustained. He refused to accept, and through his attorney, George Manley of Denver, has brought suit for $20,0OO damages against w. H. Allison. Walter A. Chamberlain, George M. Mcclure, J. R. Hickey, Daniel S. Wise, A. J. Mackey, H. Cassaday, T. F. Feeny, John N Ives, w. c. Dyer, Frank T. Metcalf, George c. Hall, David Grant, H.

As the train from Mesa was approaching the Tempe de pot on the main line Eckhardt was hanging upon the side of the car. The depot platform is high and he was leaning far out, so that his side struck the edge of the platform and he was thrown to the ground. When he was picked up his head was found to be badly cut, the skull possibly frac- tured. Local physicians were called iii, but the extent of his injuries was not determined. He was taken back to Mesa and at o'clock last night had not recovered consciousness.

London, Sept. 1S.-The fact that no less than ten batteries of horse and field artillery have been ordered to embark for India during the months of September and October is much commented upon in military circles. Under ordinary circumstances the four batteries now in India would have been relieved this month
 But these batteries have been or dered to remain in India and there fore there will shortly be on the fron- tier fourteen batteries or artillery, a full complement for an army corps. As the British forces now assembled on the frontier is of ample strength to wipe out all visible resistance, the only inference from the reinforce ments of artillery is that the author ities are preparing for serious trouble.

HANGING ON LIKE DEATH.
The San Francisco Shifty Eight Re
 fuse to Be Ousted.

San Francisco, Sept. 1S.-Although "a policeman was stationed at the en-
 [nce of the board of supervisors this morning with instructions to allow no one to pass it's portals except those who had business within, the eight members of the busted board marched past him and took possession before the new board assembled, and pro ceeded to transact business as though they were still in office. They were jubilant at the discovery made by their attorneys that the law provided that an appeal from judgment in a proceeding under special statute operated as stay, and congratulated themselves that consequently they constitute a de facto board until the supreme court decides in their case.
 Finding the board room already oc- cupied when they appeared the mem bers of the ne# hoard assembled in a committee room adjoining it and both boards thereupo1 held sessions simultaneously. After the tax levy has been disposed of, it is generally believed that the policy now being pursued of ignoring the presence of the eight members of the old board will be changed for a more vigorous one.

A Harvest For the indians Who Can Earn $SOin Three Days, Twice a White Mans Wages for a Whole Months Work.

Washington, Sept. 18.-A letter was received from s. G. Danham from the Kloadyke country, with the following news, aAt present the condition of affairs on both trails is terrible and hundreds of men are bound to starve and freeze to death if they continue to come this way. I passed at least a thousand men between Dyea and here and not more Jhan-.one hundred have got their outfits this side of the summit. Every fifty yards along the trail are piles of goods, and I suppose there are provisions to the value of S200,000 scattered along the trail.
 ''The prices for packing and for all kinds of service are practically p1o- hibitory to the most of those who are attempting to get in, and many are carrying over their own outfits. Some of the Indians carry as much as 200 pounds at one load and make the trip from Dyea to Lake Lindemann in two days, returning to Dyea on the third day, thus making two trips a week. White men carry from seventy five to 100 and 125 pounds and it takes man with an adequate outfit a month to get to the lake.
 There are many here who have been five or six weeks packing their outfits over and are not ready to start down the river yet All who have come to Skaguay or Dyea within the last week or two, and who have come with a sufficient outfit have paid 40 cents or more a pound or. do not get in at all.'

BROUGHT HIM BACK TO LIFE.
An Epileptic Fit Rudely Broken Up
 by Chinaman.

There is something about the Chi nese practice of medicine which reg ular physicians do not understand. Yesterday a man sitting at dinner in the Garden City restaurant suddenly rose from his chair, screamed and fell backward. At first he was believed to be dead, but it soon became evident that he was suffering from epilepsy. The excited guests gathered about him and some said a doctor ought to be sent for. A couple of Chinamer came in from a back room with as great unconcern as if an epileptic fit were a regular thing on the bill of fare. One of them took the patient by his shoul- ders. the other by his feet and they carried him into the back yard.
 What are you going to do with him ?" asked a guest.
 s;We fix him quick" was the en- Tightening reply. One Chinaman pro cured a dirty outside cabbage leaf. The other pulled half dozen hairs from his own head and talk ing the cabbage leaf rolled it closely and wrapped the hairs around it. Then he rammed the remedy down the patients throat. The Chinaman said the treatment was intended to promote an active cir culation The intention was fully carried out Within less than a min ute the victim was vomiting. First his dinner came up, then his break fast; these were followed by remi- niscences of former meals. By

A VARIETY OF THE ANSWERS
Many Industries in Iron and
 Steel Will Be Hard Hit
Others in Fabrics VIII Be Only Slightly Injured But Some Others Will Find 1t Necessary to Move to This Country.

Berlin, Sept 18.-The first batch of the effects of the new United States tariff law. circulated by the Frank furter Zeitung, has been printed The general tenor of the answers shows that manufacturers generally expect to be able to stand the new tariff with out such aid as the agrarians pro- pose in the shape of a tariff war with the United States and higher prices for cereals. The replies, however, show that some branches of German industry have been more or less hard hit. For instance, tlhe iron and steel industry of Solingen and Remsheid, with the sole exception of scissors, have been seriously injured, but the same is true in the case of the yarns and cheaper silk stuffs of Crefeld. the cloth factories of Lennep and Huck- enwagen, the prints of Gladboch, and the feathers and gloves and cheaper linen of Silicia.
 On the other hand, the Chemnitz knit goods and hosiery, the Saxon cot- ton industry, Gera woolens, Berlin and Barmen trimmings, Crefeld neck ties and Voightland ,laces, curtains and knitting machines are barely touched

the Rodgers Explosion.
 Washington, Sept. 1s.-The acci- dent to the torpedo boat Rodgers on her trial trip will not prevent the organization of the tor pedo boat fotilla, as originally pro- jected. The repairs to the craft can not be made in much less than two months. Meanwhile, the other boats, five in number-the Dupont, Porter, Ericsson, FoOte and Cushing leave Tompkinsville the first week in October for the south, beginning the cruise, which it is expected will take them into the gulf of Mexico, and finally up the Mississippi.
 Acting Secretary Roosevelt is by no means discouraged in the execu- tion of the program he laid down for the boats by the Rodgers mishap. He recalled the fact that when the British government recently under took to send three of it's torpedo boat destroyers, a class of boat larger than our torpedo boats, to foreign stations, all of the boats broke down in their machinery, and were obliged to re- turn to port. It is the purpose of the navy department, in planning the fio- tilla operations, to develop the weak points of our boats, and sift them out, so that the delicate craft may be depended xnp in time of need.
