Thirty-tiVC Miners Imprisoned -Four
Days without Food.
City Of Mexico. Jan. S.-NariOus re-
ports have been in circulation regarding
the mine disaster at the mine of san
Jose De Garcia, at Guanajuato. At
first it was reported 30 miners had been
drowned in the lower workings of the
mine. Authentic but brief. reports
have lust been received which show
that the number as stated were at work
in the lower levels when they noticed
that the water was beginning to come
in slowly, and they became alarmed.
When the water began rushing toward
them in greater volume their alarm
was turned into CONSERVATION, and the
men made a rush for the ladders They
stayed within reaching distance of a
higher level, but could get no higher.
When the time came for the shift to go
to the surface and they did not appear
the rumor spread that all the men had
been drowned. a relief force volun-
teered to go to the rescue, but it was
deemed impossible to give aid, and
nothing was done more than to ascer-
tain that there was undoubtedly a
flood in the lower workings
Four days passed, and naturally all
hope was abandoned and the families
of the miners gave way in despair, and
the news was given out that all the
men had perished in the mine. Finally
a relief party, still working, but with
out any hope, reached the place where
the miners had sought refuge and res
cued them, Tho poor fellows were in
a bad state of exhaustion, having hal
no food during all the time they were
imprisoned on the level, and some of
them We're SO weak that they could
hardly move All We're rescued, how

William Auehleisen. doing business at

for Injunction against the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company to
prevent it from moving IT'S telephone in
strument and appliances from his prem
ises. Mr.. Muehleisen alleges that he con-
tracted with the Chesapeake and Poto-
mac telephone Company in 1891. for the
use Of one of Its instruments. for a period
Of two years at a price stipulated in the
agreement. The contract was renewed
from year TO year. and the charges were
paid regularly. until on July Z. 1888. when
Auehleisen notified the telephone COM
pany that the existing contract should
terminate and that the service be con-
tinued under the act OF Congress, June 90,
1888. which provided for a new schedule Of
rates for telephone service in the District
Of Columbia. He also says that he ten

the act of June 30. 1898. but that It was
refused. and that the telephone company
refused and still refuses to grant him
telephone service at the fixed legal rate
and for this reason he asks that the said
company be enjoined from removing its
telephone instrument from his place Of

LOYALTY OF THE cH1NAMAN.
He VIII Prove His Patriotism by
Paying the War Tax.

The Chinaman in America is in a pc
culiar position. However patriotic he
may be. he cannot enlist either as a sailor
or soldier. This is because only naturaliz-
ed citizens or those who have declared
their intention to become citizens are ac-
cepted in the American service. The
Chinaman cannot be naturalized.
Notwithstanding this. the Chinaman is
not unknown in the American navy. Near
ly every ship on the Asiatic station carries
a Chinese cook, and the laundry work of
these ships is performed by Chinese.
When the dispatch boat Dolphin was at
this port she carried Chinese cook.
Since the war with Spain began many
Cinnamon have offered their services. AT
San Francisco several were allowed 10 go
with the Philippine expedition as cooks.
Since the war tax became operative. the
Celestial has found way in which to
show his patriotism.
Several of the Chinese merchants in
Washington recently received large sup
plies of tea on which they have deter
mined to pay the tax. They will not i'm
pose II on the consumer.
The Chinese of Washington say they
would go TO the front as cooks and laun-
drymen. but at this privilege is denied
them they can only stay at home and pay
the war tax evidence of their loyalty
to America.

TRIED TO KILL HER.
Walter Scott Attacks Susie Come
With a Razor.

AM attempt TO repeat ex-Policeman
Horizons manner Of committing murder
was made last night by Walter Scott, a
young co.ored man, who with razor
murderously slashed the throat and neck
of Susie Conner. a seventeen-year-oid col
ored girl living at 1872 Fifth Street north
west That the victim of his rage is liv-
ing is a miracle. Had the razor pene-
tra,ed the hundredth par; of an inch
deeper the jugular vein would have been
cut. making the wound fatal.
Scott has been paying attention to the
girl for some time, and yesterday he made
several visits 10 her. 1t was noticed
that he had been drinking heavily, but
no trouble resulted until he came about
6 o'clock in the evening. He had evil
IDENTIFY continued his drinking and was
very quarre.some. He was known to be
very jealous Of the attentions of other
colored friends of Susie and II was not
long before he began to upbraid her for
allowing other men TO come TO see her
This led to quarrel which resulted in
Susie going in the house. The maddened
iover followed her and seized her by the
arm. Quick as flash he had drawn a
razor and forcing her head backward he
pileo the blade acros her throae She
screamed and struggled and the blood
spurted on the floor. There were people
in the house and when Scott heard their
footsteps approaching he darted from
the place and disappeared. The girl fell
the the floor in pool of blood. Some
one notified the police and the patrol
wagon soon arrived an: conveyed the
wounded girl to the homeopathic Hos
pital, where her injuries were dressed.
Then a description of Scott was tele-
phoned TO all the police stations and a
general order sentout to locate and arrest
nm for attempted murder. He had not
geen arrested up to noon today.

WRECKED IN A TYPHoON.
Officers of Chinese Cruiser BE-

Seattle. July ia terrible Illustration
of incompetency on the part of Chinese
naval men in the face of disaster was
the wreck of the Chinese cruiser Hal
Ching at Port Arthur on the morning of
| June l5. in which lis of her officers and
crew persisted.
The disaster was, it is said due en-
tirely to the cowardice of the HaiChinSs
officers. who were crazed by the sudden
coming of the typhoon that swept down
upon them They had steam up, but
were afraid to heave up their anchors
and make for the inner harbor. as did
the Russian cruisers from the same an
chorage-
The details of the disaster were learn
ed from j. II. Buxton, jr., an English
newspaper correspondent. who has Just
arrived here from the Orient on the Jap
anese mail steamer Yamaguichi Maru.
The Hal Ching was lying at anchor
lust outside the inner harbor of Port Ar
thur in company with two Russian
cruisers. Short. before noon on the day
of the disaster a storm came up, Almost
without warning. The anchorage Is very
much exposed and in case of storm YES
sells either run OUT TO sea or go INTO the
small harbor. which is practically iano-
locked.
The storm was furious one and caus-
ed great excitement. The perfectly dis
cipIined Russian crews took n their an
chors and steamed with considerable dill
ficulty into the inner harbor- There was
not single European ofcer on the Hal
Ching and the scene on her decks was
one. of the utmost confusion Ihe terri
fed Chinese sailors rushed from one
mart of the ship to the other, and as far
as the Russians could learn no attempt
was made to get up her anchors.
At last the Hal Ching began to drift to
certain destruction on a rocky point at
the entrance of the harbor- Even then
there was chance for saving the men
on board had the warsh.p's boats been
launched. 1t was only few minutes be-
fore she was struck, going on the rocks
almost sideways. several hundred feet
from shore. The enormous waves struck
over her. taking with them she,r SHE

been properly used many of the un-

drawn ashore. There was a fight, how
ever. for its possession. The few sailors
getting hold of 1t cut loose and jumped
into the sea. They were pulled ashore
more dead than alive and We're the only
ones saved.
The ship went to pieces rapidly under
the terrific pounding of the waves, and
one by one the remaining sailors lost their
grip on the rigging and were washed off
into the sea, in full view of the crowd
on shore. Not an officer was saved. The

suggested that neutral bottoms would
