THREE HUNDRED KILLED
Desperate Fighting Between Chris
tians and Mohammedans.
The City of Canea Put to The Torch-Chris.
tians Driven from Their Homes by the
Flames Only to Meet Death at the
Hands of the Turkish Soldiers.

LONDON, Feb. ga dispatch to the
Central News from Athens says that
desperate fighting has occurred be-
tween the Christians and Mohamme-
dams in the island of Crete. The Mus.
sulmans have set fire to the city of
Canea, and the place is now burning.
The city is in a state Of anarchy, and
a Christian is safe nowhere. Many
Christians who had locked themselves
IN their houses were driven out by the
flames, only to meet death at the
hands of the Turkish soldiers, who
shot them down at sight. A number
of Christians have succeeded in find
ing refuge in the wal ships in the har-
Dor, but the outlook for those still in
the city is very precarious.
The situation is SO critical that ma
rines have been landed from the Brit.
ish and French war ships to protect
the c%onsulates of thoir respective gov.
ernments.
The dispatch further says that fully
300 persons have been killed in
Canea. Many of them lost their lives
while attempting to reach the war
ships.

DRIVEN INTO PORT.

The BattIeship Indiana Again Found
Wanting and Her Seaworthiness doubted
She Could Not Keep the Pace Set by the
New York, and Returned to Hampton
Roads for Further Inspection.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-What may be
represented to foreign governments as
an ignominious failure of one of the
crack vessels of the new navy receives
an explanation which navy officials OF
experience regard as satisfactory. The
return of the battleship Indiana to
Hampton Roads yesterday after
having been at sea with AID
miral Bunce's squadron scarcely
"a hours, was due to the same
turrets which got loose in a
storm last fall, when Capt. Evans
commanded the ship in evolutions of
Long Island. On that occasion the
big guns projecting from the turrets
swung back and forth across the decks
as the ship heeled over on her beam
ends and the gravest fears were felt
that the magnificent vessel would
turn turtle" and go down. Capt.
Evans hove her to and lasheG the guns

reach port, and then several months
were spent at the navy yard in trying
to remedy the defects.
Capt. Evans was succeeded in COM
mand by Capt. Taylor, formerly of the
war college, and yesterday was Capt.
Taylor's first experience for some time
in an armored ship that has earned a

selves felt On the ship when the fleet
got off Hatteras.
If she had not been restricted to
squadron formation, Capt. Taylor
might have headed his course into the
seas, but as the New York, with her
high free board and notable stability,
was setting the course, and as the In
diana could o safely stay with the
fleet, she was permitted to return. If
her turrets had broken loose off Hat
teras the ship might have been lost.
The navy department gave out the
following statement regarding the
matter yesterday afternoon:
The Indiana returned to-day to
Hampton roads, having made a run
with the squadron. When she went
out this lime she had with her a new
locking device for her turrets, lately
put on at New York, and which was
intended to remedy the trouble she had
the last time she put to sea in heavy
weather. This present device has three
times the strength Of the former one.
Very properly the officers Of the ship
have been cautious and ~obs>cvant as
to its workings, and she has returned
to the roads for u further inspection
of it and possible readjustment.
The department expects to have the
Indiana again at sea in u few days.

THE STROUOE TRAGEDY.
The Town Terrorized and Several Citizens
Carried on to be Murdered

The Town errorized and Several Citizens
Carried on to be Murdered
GUTHRIE, Okla, Feb. 6.-Communi-
cation has been been restored 10
Stroude, and particulars of the recent
raid nave been received:
Two weeks ago, while quarreling
over some land, GritfiS was shot and
killed and his father slightly wounded
by Henry Lurton. Lurton was arrest
ed, but admitted to bail Wednesday,.
Old man Grifiis and three of his sons,
accompanied by four other men, rode
into Stroud and compelled everybody
to close their stores and hide away
saying there was gong to be q battle.
Several hours later as Henry Lur-
ton, his son Everett, jim Furber and
old man Robinson were entering the
town they were ambuscaded and COM
PEELED to surrender by the other crowd,
who bound them to horses and rode
off into the Creek country with them.
Later :ney released Jim Furber, who
returned ard said that they had de-
clared they would hang old man Lur-
ton and shoot mis- son and Robinson.
The people of Stroud were com
pletely terrorized, and most of them
have been afraid to venture from
their houses since.
A posse was organized at Chandler
Thursday night to go to the rescue of
the three men carried off, III there is
little hope of reaching them in the
woods and mountains OF the Creek
country.
A message from Stroud late last
evening says thata report had reached
there that Henry Lurton and Robin
son have been found dead hanging to
trees and their bodies riddled with
bullets, but it cannot be confirmed.
Stroud is south of Sac and Fox
agency, and this encounter gave rise
to the reports Thursday of the raid on
the agency which did not take place.

Blown Up with a Mine and Almost An
initiated by Cubans.
New YORK, Feb. a.-A special to the
New York World from Key West, Fla.
says:
As Gen. Weyler was marching with
his columns just before entering Santa
Clara his horse was shot under him by
Il Cuban sharpshooter. 1t is supposed
the shot came from Il distant hillside.
Throughout the march from Rodas
the captain-general was assailed by
missiles of this kind, and several times
barely escaped being wounded.
He is greatly worried over it, and
large scouting parties precede the adj
vancing Spanish columns to capture
the daring marauders-
A Spanish force of 500 men was am
pushed Wednesday night near Naza-
rene, just west of Santa Clara, and
narrowly escaped humiliation.
The insurgents had mined the road
and bridge over a creek and hidden on
the road sides. As the Spaniards we're
crossing the bridge the mines were ex-
ploded killing 20 or 80 men and wound
ing many more. The blowing up of
the bridge divided the Spanish force
and the CuOans fred on those in the
rearand charged with machetes. Many
Spaniards were driven into the creek
where they were drowned.
The soldiers in the rear column Just
managed to escape humiliation. The
Cubans captured so prisoners and re.
port over 100 Spaniards killed.

Charles Koch Must Seek IL New JoL
Driven Out by His Fellow Workmen.
COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 6.-When Charles
Koch, an employee of Hayden's chain
factory, arrived at his forge yesterday
morning he found it in charge of a
committee of his fellow workmen. He
was notified that he would have to
leave the shop. 1t had been discov-
cred that, though he had regular en-
ploynent at good wages, he had i'm
posed on the public relief association
for the poor unemployed and taken a
large amount of groceries to his home.
Koch refused to go and was driven off
with eggs and cries of Get a rope
ringing in his ears. Koch owns his
own home.

Spanish Dissatisfaction With Concessions
to Cuba.

MADRID, Feb. S.-There is much dis
satisfaction expressed here Owe what
are believed to be the excessive con-
cessions made to the Cubans in the
scheme of reforms, and it is thought
that cabinet changes are likely to re-
suit. 1t is reported that Marquis Pidal
or Gen. Martinez Campos will shortly
replace Senior del Castillo, the prime
minister. The latter, should he resign,
would place himself at the disposal of
the crown, which would possibly adj
wise him to support Marquis Pidal.

MONEY MISSING.
Sudden Disappearance of Funds Causes
the suspension of a Bank.


the suspension of a Bank.
BUTTE, Mont, Feb. 6.-The North
western national bank at Great Falls
failed to open its doors yesterday
morning, and the reason given in the
dispatches is a discovered defalcation
of about S27, 900. The cashier is Il. ID.
Hatcher, and he is still in Great Falls.
One dispatch says the money was in
the vaults Thursday, and was missing
yesterday morning. Facts are hard to
obtain, owing to the excitement
caused by the failure and the reti-
cence OF the bank officers. The bank
had a capital of $3.50, 900 and an adver.
tised surplus of $50, 900. Thos. Couch,
u. NJ. Hyams, Frank Kleptko and
other prominent stockholders in the
Boston & Montana and Butte &. Boston
mining companies are members of the
board OF directors of the bank, and
W. q. Conrad, a Great Falls capital
list, is president of the institution.

THE CRUISER BROOKLYN
The Damaged Vessel TO Go Into the

CHESTER, Pa, Feb. a.-If the condi.
tions remain favorable it looks to-day
es though the cruiser BROOKLYN may
leave her anchorage at Marcus Hook
for the dry dock at the League Island
navy yard tomorrow. The stevedores
finished unloading the coal from the
vessel this morning and all the am
munition has been taken out. The
divers report shows that the plates
have been ripped from a point near
the bow to a point under the engine
room but the damage is confined to
the port side.
The injury is serious, but it is not as
bad as was at first thought from the
quantity of water forced into the
double bottom compartments. The
skin is not damaged, and the bolts
were not sheared off. Capt. Cook has
received Il telegram from Eleven Point

thy for the accident to the Brooklyn.

THE SAC AND FOX RAID.
Father and Son Seized and Carried III
The Former Believed to Have
Been Lynched.

GUTHRIE, Okla, Feb 5.-A telephone
message has just been received which
definitely locates the reported Sac and
Fox raid at Stroud, in the eastern part
of Lincoln county. As the result of an
old feud, VIM Lurton shot and
killed another man and a party of
masked men rode into town at night,
shut up the town, drove the citizens
out and with Lurton and his son
Everett as prisoners, rode off into the
Creek country. Everett Lurton was
afterwards released, but it is believed
the old man was lynched. The town
of Stroud is t~errorized and deserted,
but the citizens are arming a large
posse. The telephone wires have been
cut near Stroud, and further particu.
lars are unobtainable.
