while the Sea Witch was off Delagoa
bay he signaled to the Wasp, which

boat to her. The captain of the Sea
Witch complains that the visit resem-
bled "A worlike boarding party, and that
his manifest was examined against his
will when palpably within neutral va
tiers. If the latter statement is true, a
serious offense has been committed by
the Wasp, which will call for an
ample apology from Great Britain. But
it is pointed out that the fact that the
Sea Witch signaled the Wasp before
the warship noticed her, invests the
case with a curious uncertainty. APP
parently both Mr.. Choate and Lord
Salisbury are inclined to believe that
there is some mistake, perhaps, on both
sides. The premier has referred the
matter to the admiralty, which has no
record OF the occurrence, but has ca
bled to South Africa for the Wasp's
version Of the affair, and it is possible
that some time may elapse before the
British reply Is ready.

WASP STINGS A N K

Warship's Action.

London, May 3.-United States AM
b%assador Choate has asked Lord Sails
bury for explanations as to the alleged
abuse Of International rights in the
Ease Of the American ship Sea Witch,
which, according to the statement of
her commander, Captain Hoe, was
boarded by the British warship Wasp
within the three-mile limit Of Portu-

The American ship Sea Witch left
Walloroo, Dec. 6, and arrived at Della

for Port Natal (Durban) and arrived
there March 8.

.sADDEsT DAY OF ALL
SCoFIELD PEOPLE HAVE JUST
BEGUN TO REALIZE MAG
NITUDE OF DISASTER.
Bodies of the Dead Are Becoming Of
fensive-Pleasant Valley Coal
Company Doing Everything Posi-
BILE for Families Of Dead-Over
200 Bodies Taken Out.

Salt Lake, Utah, May "a special
to the Tribune from Scofield, Utah,
says:
This has been the most sorrowful
day here since the great disaster of
Tuesday. The sorrow of today is Of
that kind that reaches deep down. The
people have apparently just begun to
realize the magnitude Of the calamity
that has befallen them. In front Of
the houses where the bodies are being
prepared for burial there have been
all day crowds of weeping women and
Children, of relatives awaiting and
anxious to know when the body Of
some dear one would be delivered to
them. Many stout hearted and brawny
men have turned away with tears run
ming down their cheeks.
The bodies Of the dead became Of
fensive today. and there were many
cases of people becoming sick and hav-
ing t o leave the place on account OF
offensive odors.
This afternoon it was said by Fore
man Andrew Hood that there was not
a dead miner remaining in the work
ings. Some OF the bodies are so badly
mutilated that they were brought from
the mine in casks.
To the credit Of the Pleasant Valley
Coal company 1t can be said that the
funeral dressings are better and more
appropriate than could have been ex-
pected Of any corporation.
The force of clerks in the Wasatch
store was doubled today, and those
who have not been engaged in handling
the supply OF clothing for the dead.
worked until late tonight handing out
groceries and other necessities to fami-
lies OF the dead. At the other six stores
nothing Is refused anyone.
Mayor Earle has headed a force OF
men at the cemetery all day and to-
night had 80 graves ready for the re-
ception Of bodies. He has 40 section
men on the work.

Washington, May 3.-The president
|sent the following telegram to the gov
%eronor Of Utah:
Il desire to express my intense sor-
SOW upon learning Of the terrible cal
|amity which has occurred at Scofield,
land my deep sympathy with the wives,
children and friends of the unfortunate
victims of the explosion"
Ambassador Cambon called at the
White House today and presented to
president Mckinley from Presiden,
ILoubet of France a letter Of coincidence
on the recent mine disaster in Utah.
, 1900-05-04

The greater portion Of the dead will
be buried Saturday. A carload Of cot
fms came in today, and more are ex-
pected tonight.
The Knights of Pythias and the Odd
Fellows will erect a monument at the
cemetery. The graves will be arrang-
ed in the shape Of a Maltese cross, in
the center of which will be erected the
monument Of the two lodges.
The inquest wa begun this morning
at the residence of the late John Hun
ter, who was killed in the mine.
The jury did not go into the contro-
versy as to what caused the disaster,
but simply found that Hunter met his
death in the mine through explosion.
State Mine Inspector Thomas testified
that it was his opinion hat the explo-
sion was caused by a tight heavy
shot"
He said the mine was free from gas.
He had examined the place where 1t
was claimed powder had been stored,
and said it was plainly evident that the
explosion started where the powder
was stored, for the bodies taken from
that point were badly burned.
If any one man is to blame for the
accident, it will never be known, for
no mar who can tell the story has come
out of the mine alive. Many old coal
miners, familiar with these mines, state
that they have always been regarded
as the safest mines in the state.
At noon 231 bodies have been re-
moved from the mine. OF the e bod
les, 10 came from Tunnel No. l this
morning. Nearly all are in a fright
full condition.

Yuma Sentinel: The great register Of Yuma county for 1900 contains the names Of 978 voters. Under the cleo. ton laws Of the territory these voters before registering were compelled to exhibit their pol, tax receipts for the current year except where exempt). The law requires the board of super. visors to have new poll tax receipts each year, the color of the parer useo being different from that of the year preceding. The Sentinel has the con. tract for printing these receipts, ano ia April last received an order to print coo of them. The order was filled ard no other was received for the year, so even blind man can see that some. thing Is wrong. The great register shows l87 exemptions, indicating a l9l more pOll tax receipts tha1 have been printed. The assessor, who is also ex. otlicio poll-tax collector, should investigate this matter and see whether there has been any fraud practlced, or what causes the dis crepancy

 Globe Times: Some one has sug- qested that the Miners Union ought to have hospital of it's own. It costs DO more to cure man than it does to bury him and it is certainly better for all parties concerned. The recent epidemic of typhoid fever suggests this course, and if practicable, which seems likely, many good lives can be saved and the outcome will reap honor for the union.
 Florence Tribune: Mrs. Simeon English, Of Casa GraBde, has been ad- judged insane and was sent to the Phoenix asylum last Monday. Insan- ity recently developed while the lady was in Los Angeles, and she was brought home by her husband. Every thing possible was done for her, but but she became so violent that it was necessary to place her under restraint, where it is earnestly hoped reason may return to her.
