TO SUSPEND CONSTITUTION.
Cape Colony to he Deprived of Civil
Government.


London, July 1.-The Daily News pub
fishes an article by its parliamentary cor
respondent on the political situation Cape
Colony in view of the prorogation of the
Cape Parliament. the writer saying that
an issue OF the gravest moment, namely,
the suspension of the constitution of Cape
Colony is involved. He adds:
From the night Of June 80 for an in
definite period the Kings subjects in Cape
Colony will be deprived of the protection
of the law and will be governed contrary
to its express provisions. Taxes will be
applied under warrant of the governor
without appropriation by Parliament
which has been prorogued until Aug. 27.
and is not likely to sit even then.
This illegal method has been resorted
to by the Governor and ministry doubtless
at the instigation of Lord Milner and Co
lonial Secretary Chamberlain. In word,
the imperial government has abrogated
every article of the compact under which
a free people owes allegiance to it's rul-
ers. Liberty is dead so far as our Dutch
subjects are concerned
''The crisis calls for the authoritative
Intervention of the Liberal party. in
which there is a feeling in favor of sum-
moning a great popular conference to
consider the situation"

London. July Lord Strathcona pre-
sided tonight at the Dominion Day din
ier, given at the Hotel Cecil, London.
Mr.. Choate, in the course of a letter
expressing his regret at being unable to
be present, uttered sentiments of hearty
good will, adding:
I'VE are neighbors, and we must al
ways be good friends"
Joseph Chamberlain. speaking of Cam
adas material progress, said:
Thirty years ago your thoughts might
have turned to the question of absorption
by your powerful, but friendly, neighbor
to the south"
This was received with cries of NO"
from Mr. Dobell and the other Canadians.
Mr.. Chamberlain: Yes, you may say
No. but you would not have said is
thirty years ago. OF one thing / am
convinced. If our colonies desire closer
connection and will assist us with their
counsel and advice. in addition to their
arms, there is nothing this country would
more readily welcome"
Referring to Great Britain's isolation,
the Colonial Secretary said:
II do not think the opinion of civilized
Europe to-day Is likely to be the verdict
of posterity. OF much more value is the
opinion of our colonies than the unin-
structed opinion of Europe, which is bas-
ed upon lies foisted upon Europe by our
enemies abroad and traitors among us at
home We may be isolated among the
nations of the world, but so long as our
children rally around us we are not
alone"

The proceedings in the present comblna-

formation of the steel trust One year
ago all the coal properties in the Pitts

known as the Pittsburg Coal Company.
About that same time the same inter-
ests which ship coal from that territory

been known as the Monongahela Coal

A FLASH OF DEATH
LIGHTNING KILLS. ELEVEN AT ONE
STROKE.
ONLY ONE OF IL ESCAPED.
HAD SOUGHT SHELTER FROM THE
STORM.

Tnngied Like "A Nest of Snakes
One Survivor Was Extracted From
the Pile of Dead.
Chicago. July Crowded together in
a little zinc lined shanty under a North
Shore pier ten boys and young men and
one other man met instant death by light
ming to-day. They had left their fish
lines and sought shelter from the fierce
thunderstorms that reluged the northern
part of the city about l o'clock.
Ten minutes later their bodies lay, with
twisted and tangled limbs, like a nest
of snakes" as the men who found them
said.
Twelve sought shelter and one escaped.
Twelve-year-old Willie Anderson was
injured, but he lay many minutes before
he could be drawn out from under tho
heap of dead bodies.
The dead are all from the families of
poor people and comprised a party of men
who were fishing and seeking relief from
the heat Of the day. accompanied by a
number of boys who had come to wade
and swim on the beach.
The scene of the tragedy was a pier
just south of Marquette terrace, and a few
hundred feet from the water works
boulevard. The storm was a very violent
visitation. The skies were filled with
lightning. and the air rumbed steadily
with thunder.
Half a dozen houses. outbuildings and
trees in the vicinity were struck and al
most all of the telephone wires burned
out.
Crowded Into Death Trap.
Thirteen men and boys were on the pier
at the time. They rushed for the only
available shelter and crowded themselves
in through the little trap door in the top
of the cabin, until they were packed al
most to a suffocation point. Then came
the thunderbolt. 1t was the worst of the
storm. Watchers in the pumping station
saw the lightning strike the water, as
they thought.
There was one boy, however, who saw
the bolt But for him the dead might
have laid where they were for hours and
Willie Anderson might have been suffo-
Gated under their bodies.
Percy Keane. clad in bathing trunks and
watching from the water station, thought
he heard scream as the bolt struck.
Mindless of the storm he rushed across
the beach. At the pier he heard a cry
"Helpl Get me outr' He looked into the
cabin and in dismay saw the twisted
bodies.
Young Percy pulled at the dead men's s
arms and legs. die saw Willie Anderson s
head and part of his body, but he could
not pull him out, nor could he pull the
heavy bodies from on top OF him. Then
he telephoned to the police, who succeed
ed after great deal of difficulty in re-
viving Anderson and recovering the dead
bodies of the others.

THE WRECK OF THE MAINE.
Contractor Sick of His Contract and
Nothing IIns Been Done.

Havana, July Although three
months, have expired since the govern
ment completed the contract to raise the
hull OF the battleship Maine from Havana
harbor. no work TO this end has yet been
done, nor have the contractors, N. f.
Chamberlain & Co., filed the necessary
bond of $25, 900. This work OF raising the
wreck was to have been completed July
1, but a provision was inserted in the
contract to the effect that If there oc,

the time for it's completion would be ex-
tended to March /. 1902.
Captain of the Port Lucien Young says
that Chamberlain has sent him word that
he IL sick, and asks for extension OF
the contract. Capt. Young is considering
whether sickness comes under the head
OF unavoidable delay. 1t is believed here
that the contractors cannot undertake
this work according to their agreement.
SnIpp.ng interests here are urging the
government to remove this wreck as soon
as possible, as a dangerous bar is form
