FIVE MEN PERISH.
Roof Fell on Miners Working In Shaft ct
st0tts City, Mo-, Burying Them I'm
der Several Tons Of Rock.

AURORA, NO., June 10. The most ter
rible mine disaster ever reported from
the southwest mining region occurred
at Stotts City, mining camp 20 miles
northwest Of this place Monday night,
resulting in the death Of five men.
The accident occurred at the Mount
Vernon company's mine. The work Of
pumping the water from the mine had
been In progress the water being
about 10 feet deep in the drift and
about 90 feet In the shaft. The
men working on the shaft were
upon a raft trimming the top Of the
drift wood from the shaft when
several tons of powders suddenly fell
upon them, wrecking the raft and car
rying five Of the unfortunate miners
with the rock to the bottom Of the
shaft. Every effort is being made to
recover the bodies, but there Is little
hope Of being able to do so until 90
feet Of water is pumped from the
shaft which will take several weeks.

THE LETTER COLLAPSE


LONDON, June ln-The collapse OF
the Letter wheat corner has caused q
panic in the Liverpool market In
London the news Of the collapse was
received with equanimity. The con-
sensus Of opinion Of number OF oper'
ators in Mark Lane Is that the Eng
lish markets will gain steadiness now
that "the plunger operating without
regard to market precedence is shaken
out" 1t is asserted In Mark Lane that
the collapse was due to Messrs. Armour
and Pillsbury. The newspapers gen.
orally rejoice at the breakdown OF
the Letter plans and point to 1t as .
moral. The Star says: "lf the prime
mover in this war against mankind Is
beggared by his greed, the retribution
is we'll merited Nothing can atone
for the awful suffering Letter and his
accomplices have caused"

WASHINGTON, June 15.-Beneath Q
mobile exterior the Washington ad.
ministration is endeavoring to hide
what amounts to actual apprehension
concerning international compiled.
lions that appear TO be growing out OF
the situation in the Philippines. With
the growth Of the policy Of the United
States to maintain permanent posses.
sion Of the sulu archipelago, Germany
has been seized with suggestive de.
sire to protect the interests Of her citi'
zens in Manila against suffering
at the hands Of Rear Admiral
Dewey and Gen. Merritt, and SO
pronounced Is this intention that
she is assembling formidable feet of
warships in the Philippines The
Spaniards have failed TO conceal an
assurance that Germany's aggressive
ness may prove Of advantage to them,
and they are openly boasting that II the
United States promulgates a plan that
has in view the retention OF the islands,
and II 1t develops that our country has
designs on the Ladrones and the
Carolines, that Germany may con-
slider herself a party to the quarrel
and side with Spain. In fact, 1t Is con.
ceived that Germany may be taking
Ing the initiative In the direction Of
Intervention with Austria and prob.
ably Russia, France and Portugal in
sympathy, and that in the very near
future the United States may have to
reckon with all of them. 1t Is Ger.
tain, one Of the shrewdest diplomats
in the service Of the United States de.
clares, that the administration will
not tolerate interference by Germany
or any other country, and that If Ger
many means to commit an unfriendly
act toward the United States, the lat
ter will make an open alliance with
England, q moral understanding hav.
ing already been arrived at.
THINK GERMANY WILL INTERFERE.
MADRID, June b.-The Spanish press
has increased its optimism. based on
the belief that Germany intends to
prevent q bombardment OF Manila by
