For Confederate Monument.

Kansas City, Mo-, May "a ball
will De given at the Casino, under the
auspices of the Daughters of the Com
fsderacy, tonight. 1t will be one Of
the most largely attended and most
enjoyable events of the season. The
object is to raise funds TO aid in. the
erection of monument to the mem-
DRY of the confederate soldiers who
fell i'll the battle. of Westport, and Of
other confederates who have since
died and been, buried in Forest Hill
cemetery. in which the Confeder-
ates of this city own plot of ground
which is held sacred as the last rest
ing place of those of them who re-
main. A considerable portion of the
field upon which the battle was fought
is now within the corporate limits of
the city, and is and always will be a
part OF the history, not only of Mis-
souri, aud of Jackson county, but OF
Kansas City itself. The Daughters of
the Confederacy, judging from the
way which the contributions are
pouring in, will doubtless succeed in
raising the amount required ST, 600.
The state has generously taken charge
OF the Confederate Home, and all their
energies have been directed to erect
ing monument to the confederate
dead. Thirty years ago the confeder-
Iates OF. Lone Jack township, in this
county, erected an imposing monument
in memory of the confederates who
fell i'll the fiercely contested battle
of Lone Jack.

MET UNTIMELY DEATH.
Once Notorious Woman Of Hardin
County Killed by husband.

Eldora, May 2.-County Attorney
Lundy received letter yesterday
from Plainfeld, Wis. dated April rs,
which sets forth that Levi w. and Hat
tie May Myhill, who have been living
there fer the past few months, had
had family row and separated,
and happening to meet on the road
the next day Myhill fired three stos
from revolver at his wife. The first
two missed and the third struck her
in the head, killing her instantly. Mr..
Myhill then thinking that his life WIS
not worth living without his fair wife,
Immediately sent a bullet into his own
brain. The funeral OF both was held
Sunday.
1t will be remembered that Mrs. My
hill is the woman who stole horse
from a livery at Iowa Falls and, after.
much litigation and expense to the
county, was finally cleared by Judge
Porter, her attorney. The unsayory
reputation which haunted them here
appears to have stuck to them every
where they went, as the party writing
the letter seemed to voice the senti-
ment of the people that it was a good
radiance to a troublesome pair.

A Prominent KeOkuk County FARMER

Sigourney, May s.-(Special.) Mini
ROD Utterback, well-to-do farmer
living about two miles south of Sigour-
ney, ended his own life yesterday by
hanging Mr.. Utterbacll went out1lu
the barn in the morning to do aIs
chores, and as he. was gone longer

utterbaek, of this town, He had been
in i'll health for a long time, becoming
very respondent, and tho he was a
man Of extraordinary strength Of
mind, SO much sickness. and worry
naturally and gradually impaired mis-
mind, Towards the last, these DIES
pendent feelings have. been more ere-
quent and intense, and to their effee,
is. attributed the cause of his tragic
death. Mr.. Utterback was SO years and
g months old. He had lived in. this
county for fifty years, and was known

AMERICANS ATTACKED.
Garrison at Catubegi Fights Brave
" for Five Days.

Manila, May 2.-(By Associated
Press. 1.-The American garrison al,
Catubegi osland of Samar, consisting Of
thirty men belonging to the Forty
third regiment, was attacked by the
rebels. Twenty Americans were killed.
The remainder were rescued.
The Americans were quartered in
|Catubegi church, which the enemy,
numbering several hundred men, sur
rounded and fiercely attacked. The
Americans fought for two days and
then the rebels managed to ignite the
roof Of the church. 1t burned away
and finally fell upon those inside. The
walls remained intact, however, and
were used as a shelter by
1.-THE besieged Americans fol
three days longer, the enemy at
lacking the building on all sides al
once. The Americans continued firing
from the windows and doors of the
church, and did great execution among
the Filipinos. 1t is estimated that ov-
Ter 200 of the latter We're killed. After
five days resistance by the Americans,
lieutenant and eight men arrived
from Laoan and engaged the besiegers,
who thereupon retired. The fortunate
arrival of these reinforcements preven-
ted the humiliation of the American
force who had repeatedly declined to
surrender when ordered to do so by
the Filipinos. Ten survivors were
without food, had little ammunition
and We're physically exhausted when
relieved. This fight has encouraged
the Filipinos, who are now acting in
an aggressive manner and threatening
that section of the coast, particularly
the town of Catoma, whence the gar
rison will probably be Withdrawn to
Isaoan.

the scene beggared all description Tor
men, women and children, relatives of
the dead miners, began to gather, and
as the bodies were brought out and
recognized by their respective fam
Ines, the lamentations were most
heartrending. The dead were all car
ried into a boarding house directly
opposite the mine, and at midnight
l37 stalwart men, nearly all the heads
OF families, were laid out in the cold
embrace of death.
This mine has been worked for over
twenty years, and has the reputation
according to State Mine Inspector
Thomas, Of being one of the best Ven
tilated and protected in the west. de
states that he inspected it less than
five weeks ago and believed it entire
ly safe at the time. 1t had never had
bad air and had always been free from
gas, and as the coal is all loaded with
shovels, there could not have been a
large accumulation of dust. Nine
tenths of the men killed were Ameri-
cans and Welsh. The former came
mostly from Utah, with a small NUM-
Der from Tennessee and Colorado. Sew
eral experienced undertakes were
sent down this morning and collins

shipped. j. NJ. Beattie. OF Schotield,
who is the company's storekeeper,
said, on his arrival this morning, that
no tongue could tell the horror, sad
ness and appalling extent of the ca
tastrophe. When he left none could
tell how many had been killed, but it
was thought the shift in No. 4 had
been wiped out and many killed in No.
l. Whether it was a powder explosion
or dust explosion, or both, has not
been decided; in fact. no one had any
thought but the rescue, of the injured,
recover the dead and relieve the sdf-
fering. The financial loss to the COM
pany cannot be estimated, but it viii
be very great, with the various claims,
expenses, loss of the daily output and
reduced tonnage on, the railroad by
shipments being stopped. In every
way it is regarded as the worst disas-
ter that ever occurred in this part of
the country. The nearest approach TO
it was the Southern Pacific (Almy,
Wyo.) explosion five years ago, when
over hundred men were killed.
Over Two Hundred Bodies Recovered
At 10 O'clock this morning sol bodies
had been recovered.s2It is now known
that between three and four hundred
men We're in the mines. the great ma
Jority of whom werel killed. The two
camps have always been conspicuous
for the large number of married men
employed. This fact makes the Gfsas-
ter appalling and far-reaching III sts
results. Several families have been
robbed of all male representatives. In
the Hunter family, seven are missing.

every indication that the expansion

strongly in favor of the retention; of

ton is assured because the latter with
drew before the contest was fairly on,
is the only democratic leader in The
state who is opposed to the expansion
policy. Judge John Il. Reagan, form
er Governor Hogg and a number o,
other prominent party leaders are adj
yocates OF expansion. ,and their IN
fuence will be all powerful in the
state eonvention) when merged
with that of the business element
