MOUNTAIN DROPPED INTO RIVER.

Tremendous Landslide Near Spen-
GERS Ridge, on Canadian Pacific.
Vancouves B. c., Nov. 9.-News was
received here today Of a tremendous
landslide near Spencer's bridge, on the
Canadian Pacific railroad. The recent
thaw had the effect of loosening the
sides of a small mountain which over
hangs the Frazer river at that point.
This mountain has long been an object
of curiosity to the travellers, on ac-
count of its peculiar position, its fiat
summit extending a considerable dis
lance over the river, which Is narrow
at that point. Shortly after Saturday
midnight, with roar that could be
heard for over mile, fully a hun
dred acres Of the hill. anywhere from
90 to so feet in depth, crashed into the
Frazer. damming 1t completely and
sending the water in torrents over the
fertile Nicola valley. The course of the
river was changed completely. Now
the Frazer, which, owing to the fiat
nature of .he country, has grown into
a broad, majestic, but shallow stream,
is fully half a mile out of its course.
The district Is sparcely settled, and
no lives have been lost, so far as
known. Barns and houses, however.
were caught in the flood and carried
away. and thousands of acres of val
liable land will never be reclaimed
from the muddy waters of the Frazer
in its new course.
At the point where the masses Of
earth damned up the river fiat ice has
gathered and raised high in the air,
forming an imposing and picturesque
sight.

have been cut six times week. There
was no way of waving back the coming
convoy or of signaling danger. Crockett
Springs lay long days ride to the
southeast and the little troop of cav
airy there i'll camp was looking for the
coming Of 10 call upon it for duty un-
til early OH the morrow it should sup
ply the paymaster and his party with
breakfast, the ambulance with fresh
mules and driver, and the night riders
Of the escort with their relief. Forty
troopers from Crockett Springs would
take the place Of those who had come
from the San Saba and trot along with
the paymaster until somewhere about
midway to Worth they should meet
the 40 sent ont the previous night to
bivouao on the prairie and be ready to
take up the gait and keep it until the
man of money and his safe were we'll
within the limits Of the reservation.
But the 90 mile stage from Crockett
to the southeast was the worst on the
long line The road wound over the d.
vide to the valley of the San Saba and
on the way had to twist and turn
through defiles of the range Of hills
where more than dozen times Indians
and outlaws had defied the little detach-
ments Of cavalry scouting after them.
Tho worst part of the pass lay some 20
miles beyond the stage station at Crock
EFT Springs. Neither Indians nor out
laws, to be sure, had been heard Of in
that neighborhood for several months,
but that proved nothing. 1t was easy
for the latter to sweep from their sup.
posed Businesses in the Apache range to
the west aud, issuing from the Wild
Rose pass, to water miles below the
springs and then line the rocks in the
heart of the San Saba pass without
trooper being the wiser. Forty cavalry
men, as Lawrence knew, would be tho
majors escort from the camp oil the
Rio San Saba beyond the range. Forty
men disciplined and organized ought
ordinarily to be able to cope with any
band of outlaws to be found in Texas.
But when, us was now reasonably Ger.
tain, this far famed Friday gang had
received accessions from the troops
themselves and had welcomed the de-
serters and desperadoes so frequently
sloughed off from the soldier skin of
Uncle Sam in the days close following
the great war, there was grave reason !
for precaution and graver still for anx-
iety. Question as he might Frazier
could not shake an atom Of the original
statement of Fullers men. Fifty !
mounted outlaws, at least count, with
a dozen led horses, they had seen
through their fleldglass far over the
prairie, pushing southeastward from
the direction of Wild Rose pass Of the
Apache range, straight for the lower
valley through which ran the little
stream that had its source at Crockett
Springs.
So there were anxious hearts at
Worth, for, while it was felt that
Brooks would lose no moment and was
well on his way at 4 o'clock of this
bright Sunday morning, he had still
some so miles to traverse before he
could get to Crockett rest and bait his
men and horses, pick up Cramer's troop
there camped and then push ahead for
the San Saba, where he expected to find
the outlaw gang disposed in ambuscade,
awaiting the coming Of
their prey.

to the contrary. The correspondent
says:
AT the naval dockyards I found
feverish activity. Not a man has been
withdrawn from the frontiers. The
misisters of war and marine have been
inspecting all the important military
and naval stations urging an acceera-
ton of the preparations for defense,
but apparently never mentioning the
cars manifesto. The number of men
enrolled in the army and navy during

Inducements are being sent to the far

from Representative Dingley's bedside
are a trife more encouraging, and his
family believe there Is still a chance

suit of his sickness, are the principal
symptoms which the physicians now
have to combat, which In a man of Mr..
Dingley's age make the outcome I'M
