FELL FROM A WINDOW.
Adslbsrt S. Hay AccidentIy Killed at New
Hav.n-SOn Of Secretary Of State.

New Haven, Conn, June %. -
Adelbert S. Hay, son of Secretary
Hay and ex-consul to Pretoria, was
found dead on the sidewalk outside
the New Haven house early yesterday
morning.
Mr.. Hay retired to his room at l
O'Clock, after spending the evening
with friends in apparently excellent
spirits. About 2;30 O'Clock in the
morning few people standing out
side the hotel we're startled at seeing
large white object come whirling
through the air and strike the side
walk. The night clerk of the hotel
was Immediately summoned and rec
ognized the body as that of young
man who registered as Adelbert S.
Hay.
There was considerable excitement
about the hotel, and a large body Of
students and graduates, who are here
for the commencement exercises, soon
gathered. A number of his former
classmates at Yale positively identi-
fed the young man.
DR.. Bartlett, the medical exam
iner, stated that Mr.. Hay came to his
death by an accident. The clothes
on the bed had been turned, showing
his intention to go to bed. His
clothes had been folded. On the
ledge OF the window was found part
ly burned cigarette. This discovery
leads to the belief that Hay had light
ed cigarette before retiring and had
went to the window to smoke it.
Whether he was seized with fit OF
dizziness or fell asleep on the window
ledge cannot be determined. There
are no external injuries.
Mr.. Hay graduated from Yale in
1898 and had come here to attend his
class triennial reunion. He was out
driving in the evening with party
of classmates and friends, and on re-
turning to his room left word to be
called at 8 O'Clock next morning.
This was the last seen of him alive.

GOLD FROM DAWSON
STEAMER DOLPHIN BRINGS OUT
ABOUT 81, $50, 900.
Two and ont.hali Millions More Now on the
Way Down the Yukon River to St. Mich.
AtFS, and Another Million Is Coming Up
the River to Skasway In the Grips Of the
Returning KIOndikGs

Seattle, June 26.-Gold receipts by
the steamer Dolphin from the Klon-
dixie this morning are For the Ca
madam Bank of Commerce, 81, 900, =
900; individual dust, $3.50, 000
There was shipped from Dawson
via st. Michaels, Jnne II 81, 500, 900,
and there is now on the way up the
river 81, 600, 600.
Alaska's output of gold from the
spring clean up has started in a steady
flow to the United States. Over three
tons of gold, or $2, 500, 900, is on its
way down the Yukon. 1t will be
brought from st. Michaels probably
on the Roanoke. June 20 over 81,
900, 600 was on its way up the Yukon
from Dawson. 1t will probably ar
rive on the next steamer.
The Dolphin left Skagway June 20.
The big shipments of gold she brought
came up the Yukon on the river
steamers Zealandia and Canadian,
leaving Dawson June IL. The gold
was removed to the assay Office early
this morning.
According to advices on the Dol
phin, the miners on Eldorado creek
have about finished their clean up for
the season. The miners on the other
creeks are also we'll along with the
work OF segregating the gold from the
earth in which it is dug out during
the winter, and an estimate Of the
total clean up for the district for the
season places the amount at between
SIS, 900, 900 and $40, 900, 600.
The next steamer from Skagway
will probably be crowded to the guards
with returning Klondikers. Over
$50 Klondikers arrived at Skagway
the day the Dolphin left. Very few
of them, however, came down on her.
Between 100 and $50 Dawsonites were
en- route to Skagway from White
Horse, and fully 200 passengers from
Dawson were said to be in White
Horse. All steamers leaving Dawson
had full passenger lists, and two OF
these boats, well loaded, were on the
voyage up the river.

SWEPT TO DEATH.
Two Hundred Lives Lost In q Wssl Virgins
Rain Storm and Flood.

Bluefelds, w. Va, June "a This
section has just been visited by a
flood, the extent OF which in all prob
ability will equal or exceed that oi
Johnstown in 1889, so far as the loss
Of property is concerned. Early yes
terday morning, shortly after mid
night, a heavy downpour OF rain be-
gan, accompanied by a severe electric
storm, which increased in volume,
continuing for several hours. The
storm continued throughout the
entire night and day and at 10 A. NJ. 4,
though the storm had abated, the
lowering clouds threatened another
terrific downpour at any moment.
Many miles OF the Norfolk & West
ern railroad track, bridges and tele-
graph lines are entirely destroyed
and communication is entirely cut
off west Of Elkhorn, 80 that it is inn
possible to learn the full extent Of the
loss OF life and property, but officials
of the coal companies located in the
district have sent out messengers to
Elkhorn, the terminus OF both tele-
graphic and railroad communication,
and have received a report that a con-
servative estimate as to the loss of
life will easily reach 200. Some of
the drowned are among the most
prominent citizens OF the coal fields.
The little town OF Keystone, with
a population Of 1000, seems the
greatest sufferer, practically the entire
town being washed away. This town
is the principal one in the Pocahon-
tas coal fields, and is located near its
center. 1t was to a great extent the
headquarters from which the mining
population purchased supplies.
A great number of the coal and
coke plants throughout the Pocahon-
tas district are reported practically
destroyed and are in some instances
entirely washed away. Owing to the
high water which has flooded the dis
trict and prevents communication,
anything like q correct estimate of
the loss OF property is impossible, but
from the best information obtainable
the loss to the property will easily
reach 81, 900, 900.
A rough estimate places the num-
ber of bridges washed away between
Bluefelds and Vivian Yards, dis
tance of % miles, at from Is TO 20,
and from present indications it will
be impossible to run trains through
to Vivian and points west of there
under a week or 10 days. This will
render it impossible to get relief into
the stricken districts, and with those
who escaped with their lives, home
less and without food, indescribable
suffering is inevitable.

VICTIMS OF EXPLOSION.
Three Men We're Killed and Five 0thsFs
Injured.

Kalama, Wash, June 24.-Thrse
men were killed and five others in
jured by the premature explosion of
a blast on the Oregon & Washington
Railroad. The scene OF the accident
was in a deep cut about half mile
south OF this place.
The cause of the explosion will per
haps never be known, as the men who
were working at the drill hole we're
instantly killed. About 25 men were
working in the cut, and from the sur
vivors it was learned that two men
were loading a IL foot drill hole with
No. giant powder, and had put in
about 100 sticks. 1t is supposed
that they had just been tamping the
powder with an iron bar, as they had
sometimes done before, when the sx-
plosion occurred.

More Surrsnders Expected.

Manila, June 26.-The insurgent
general Arollio, together with con-
siderable portion of the forces of Cen
eral Malvar, is expected to surrender
to the American forces at San Jose, in
Batangas province.
With the change from a military to
a civil government OF the Philippine
islands, which occurs July A, the
difficulty between the department of
the military secretary and civil sery-
ice board over the matter of holding
examinations in the civil service for
certain civilians now employed by
the military department will disap-
pear.
In consequence of the surrender Of
General Cables, all the insurgent
prisoners on Luzon island will be re-
leased Information from native
sources confirms previous reports
that General Malvar will soon sur
render.

STRIKERS FIRED UPON.
Three Men Shot While Trying to Enter a
West Virginia Mine.

Matewan, w. Va, June %. -
Strained relations between the union
and nOn-union miners here has re-
suited in bloodshed. Yesterday seve-
raj hundred union miners who are
on strike marched in a body against
the Maritime mines of this palce,
where non-union men were at work.
They tried to effect an entrance, but
the operators, with 20 guards armed
with Winchesters, blocked the en-
trance. The non-union miners were
headed by Superintendent Lambert,
and when the union men persisted in
ther attempt he gave the order to fire.
Fully so shots were fired Two union
miners we're fatally shot and another
dangerously wounded. The union
men did not return the fire, but dis
persed.
All the union miners throughout
Mingo are collecting, and serious
trouble is expected tomorrow, when
they will again try to effect an
entrance to the Maratime mines.

PORTLAND WILL CELEBRATE.
President Did Not Cons But "Ths Fourth
Is Coming and There will Be a Bic Time.

The enthusiasm which Portland ex-
pected to expend in the entertain
ment of the president and party has
been bottled up and will be let loose
in the celebration of the Fourth Of
July. While the committee which
is engaged ip- arranging for the cele-
bration is not doing much talking, it
is earnestly and energetically at work
on its plans, and will have several
very large surprises in store for Port
landers and visitors on Independence
Day. The fact that cheap railroad
fares will be provided on all lines
into the city will doubtless prove an
incentive to many residents of the
neighboring cities to come in and
help celebrate, and they are promised
a reception which they will long re-
member.
Bands from various outside towns
will help to furnish the music, and
all societies of whatever character are
invited to take part in the parade.
J.. d. Cole, chairman Of the adver-
tising committee is working hard to
let the residents of sister cities know
that they will be welcome, and he
says that the city will probably enter
tain more guests during the celebra-
tion than at any time in her history.

DESTROYING CHINESE FORTS.
vaIuabIes Struggled Out Of the Forbidden
City Sold to Foreigners

Pekin, June 26.-There has been
no meeting of the ministers of the
foreign powers at Pekin since the first
of last week, but the ministers them
selves profess satisfaction at the
course of events. The Chinese forts
haye not yet been destroyed. 1t has
been determined that each nation
shall destroy those forts now occupied
by its troops, but the ministers find
that the respective military command
ers object to destroying Chinese forts
not occupied by their troops, Conse-
quently the ministers will probably
have to employ Chinese labor to effect
the destruction OF the unoccupied forts
at the expense of the different nations.
Many Chinese enuchs have been
selling valuables which have come
from the Forbidden City. TIE valu-
ables thus sold were probably passed
over the walls of the city to the
enuchs' confederates outside. One
beautifully carved table, which was
seen in the Forbidden City only two
weeks ago, has been sold by a enuch
for 600 taels. No valuables of any
kind have been taken out OF the city
through the gates. These are guard
ed by American and japanese troops.
It is estimated that the cost of repair
ing the palace, Independent of the
valuable works of art which are miss
ing, will reach $50, 600 tales.
Members of the staff of Ii Hung
Chang and Prince Ching say that
great anxiety is felt regarding the
whereabouts and safety of large
quantity of gold that was buried in
the Forbidden City. Certain enuchs
who knew the secret Of the location
of this gold have disappeared.

NAVlGATED HE'LL GATE.
Big Battls.Ship Massachusetts, Successfully
Passed the NarrOWs.

New York, June 22.-Without the
assistance of pilot and to demon
strate that first class battle ship
could be navigated through He'll Gate
successfully, Captain Henry NJ. Man
ney took the big battle ship Massa-
chusetts through the narrows today
1t was the first time in the history of
the navy that any commandef OF a
war vessel of this class ever dared
attempt the feat, and river craft and
the shores were filled today to witness
the trip of the Massachusetts,. The
passing of the mammoth fighting
machine through the dangerous
waters of He'll Gate successfully
proves that in case of hostilities with
foreign power, a battle ship of the
same draft as the Massachusetts,, if
she passed the Notifications OF Will
let's Point and Fort Schuyler, could
repeat the performance of the Massa-
chusetts. Secretary Long has taken
official noticeof Captain Manney's
feat, and issued orders that no naval
vessel the size of the Massachusetts
shall use the He'll Gate narrows ex-
cept in cases of great emergency.
