DOOR STOOD OPEN.
Cuban Postal Officials Had Free
Access to the Safe.

New York, July 24.-The hearing in
the case of c. F. w. Nicely, was contin
ued today with George Marshall of the
finance department in Cuba, on the wit
ness stand.
United States District Attorney Bur-
nett of the prosecution, paid particular
attention to the fact that a safe which
contained whatever of the funds were in
the postoffice had its outer door always
opened and that there was a general
1axness about handling the funds.
John D. Lindsey of the defense,
brought out on cross-examination the
fact that the employees of the office all
had access to the safe as well as the en-
ployes of the money order bureau, who
kept their money order blanks in the
safe. Several employees had access to the
safe, and the moneys were placed in
three drawers in plain view and of easy
access.
William Hoffman, assistant cashier of
the North American Trust company,
verified various deposits made with his
company by Mr.. Nicely.
Major Eugene F. Sadd, treasurer of
the island of Cuba, the next witness,
verified various deposits made with
him.

SANTA FE WASHOUT.
Track Swept Away in Colorado
Rain in Kansas.

Several hundred feet of Santa F'e
track east of La Junta, Colo, was
washed out by a cloudburst last night.
AS result all traffic on the main line
was blocked, and the through afternoon
Il aims from the west will be several
hours late today. The damage has
been repaired.
A soaking rain fell over Kansas and
Colorado last night and early this
morning. In Kansas the rainfall was
from one to three inches, and the heav-
lest downpour was in the northern por-
ton. where it was most needed. No
rain is reported on the Rock Island
line south of Caldwell, or on the Santa
Fe line in Oklahoma
The rain of last night materially in
creases the prospects for a fair corn
crop in the northern counties, where
ten days ago the crop was thought to be
almost a total failure.

JUDGE WILL INVESTIGATE.
Time Necessary to Determine Legiti-
macy of Slot Machines,

The case of the Paul Berger Manufac-
turing company against Chief of Police
Ramsey was heard in the city court
this morning and taken under advise
ment by Judge McCabe.
Two months ago the police depart
ment seized two Slot machines and ar
rested Charles Berkeley as being the
owner. He claims to be the agent of
the Berger company, and suit was
brought for the recovery of the ma
chimes on the ground that they are not
gambling devices. Berkeley explained
that the machines play and pay in
checks and pay one cigar for every
turn of the wheel whether the player
wins or loses. If any one makes a
mistake and puts in nickle which is
the same size of the checks" said
Berkeley, "that is not our fault. 1t is
not a gambling machine. You can't
lose. It is really an automatic sales
man, and you get a cigar and perhaps
from 10 cents to IS in cash"
Officer Hendricks testified that he had
won from 81 to 81 on the machines
Sergeant Donovan testified that he put
in about So and lost it all, and did not
even get a cigar. 1t was explained that
the sergeant was not lucky, and that
was no fault of the machine.

A TERRIBLE TRIP.
Four K1ondikers Lose Their Lives on
Stewart River.

Tacoma, Wash, July 24.-Late adj
vices from Dawson give the details of
another tragedy, four out of a party of
five losing their lives as a result of a
terrible trip taken to the head waters
of the Stewart river. The dead are
Antoine Perry, Charles Sandstrom, of
Boston; Oscar Van Buren,, who started
for the Klondike with Sandstrom from
Boston and Louis Bouchard, who
Joined the party in Atlin. In addition
to these was George Saxholm, of Oak
land, Cal, who is the sole survivor. He
was picked up below the mouth of the
Stewart river, floating down the Yukon
toward Dawson When discovered he
was nearly dead, having, he explained,
after gaining his senses, been as near
as he knew four days without anything
to eat.
The party left Atlin in the fall of 1898
and in November separated, Sandstrom
and Van Buren, never thereafter being
heard from. Perry and Bouchard were
drowned in the rapids by the capsizing
of their craft.
