Millionaires.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TACOMA, Dec. 23-WilEam X. George
W and Frederick w. Vanderbilt are made
owners of the assets Of the failed Met
ropOlitan Bank by the action of Judge
Smell Of the Superior Court, who to-day
ordered Receiver Phelps TO turn over the
property TO Charles McNamee, represent
ing the Vanderbilts. McNamee submitted
10 the court the certificate of Manager
Jackson Of the London and San Francisco
Bank that half a million dollars was on
deposit in the bank TO AGcNamee's credit
10 pay the claims of depOsitOrs- The
transfer Will be completed tomorrow up
on the filing by McNamee of a bond in
the sum of S200,000.
Receiver Phelps to-day made his first
report to the court in which he stated
that the bank liabilities were $530, 800.
The face value Of the assets was placed
at S471 600 but the receiver said they were
of comparatively small value, in that the
largest sum which it was possible to real
ize from them, even though long time be
allowed. would not even remotely approx
innate the amount of claims.
BY an arrangement between Judge Smell,
McNamee and the receiver, the latter is
allowed $1,000 for his services and his at
LOrneys 5000.
McNamee will commence paying the de-
pOsitOrs not later than January 2. Three
thousand depOsitOrs who were made hap
py by the Nanderbilts' announcement on
bank are doubling and trebling their
Christmas purchases. Bankers and other
business men declare the action Of the
Nanderbilts in depositing half a million
dollars TO save poor depositors from losses
incurred by a second and third cousin
of the Vanderbilt family TO be an instance
of generosity unparalleled in the history
Of banking.

Gives Way TO Anger When a Com

GrieVance

NANAIMo. Dee, e3.-War Is on In earn
est now between Premier Dunsmuir OF
British Columbia and the union men at
the Extension mines. When committee
from the union visited the Premier to-day
with a statement OF its grievances the
coal magnate lost all control of himself
and savggely eXcoriated the miners.
You and your union can go to hell"
was his final remark TO the committee.
For weeks there has been trouble at the
Extension mines. The grievances of the
miners were added TO when the mine off,
cials decided to pay the men at Lady
smith, fifteen miles away. This necessi-
tated the loss of day while the men were
waiting for return train, after travelling
the fifteen miles for their money They
held a meeting and decided to strike if they
were not paid at Extension. A committee
was sent to notify Premier Dunsmuir of
this decision.
No action has been taken by the union
since the torrid reception accorded the
committee, but 1t is believed that a strike
is inevitable.

EXPLOSION IN FUSE BOX
SETS FIRE TO A TRAIN
Seven Railway Employees Are Killed,
but the Passengers Escape
Tv,;
Serious Injury.
T TTVERPOOT. me- % 49, ezn1osio-, ir

LIVERPOOL, Dec. 23-An explosion in
a fuse box set fire to a train on the cleo
trio overhead railway at Dingle station
to-day. Seven CT the railway employees
were killed.
1t appears that the burning train en-
tered tunnel stored with stacks Of creo-
soted railroad sleepers. These were also
set on fire and the tunnel became a blaz-
ing 1urnace: The fire brigade had the
greatest difficulty in extfnguishing the
flames.
Fortunately the Dingle station is the
terminus of a railway running along the
docks. otherwise a terrible disaster would
have been recorded.
The accident occurred at o'clock in
the evening. The train was packed, but
the majority Of the passengers had
alighted at the. previous station. Rumors
were spread that forty or fifty persons
had been killed and owing to the dense
volumes of smoke Issuing from the tun-
mel it was some hours before an entrance
could be effected. Many passengers
jumped from the burning train and
rushed out of the tunnel while others
were dragged out by their fellow travel
ers in half suffocated condition.
Among the dead are the station fore
man., signal boy and the driver and
guard of the train. The station buildings
were much damaged. Apparently no pas
sengers were killed, but it is possible that
other bodies may be recovered later.

HOUSE COMMITTEE TO

Congressman Coombs Says 1t Will
Conflict With the Morgan

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 23.-Congressman
Frank l.. COombs OF Napa arrived in tRis
city this morning from WashingtoDCe0
spend the holidays. Coombs said the Cal
ffornia delegation had been working as a
unit in the endeavor to bring about the
re-enactment of the Chinese exclusion
law, and expressed the opinion that
great majority of the members Of Con-
eress were in favor of maintaining the
barrier against the AsIatic invasion.
Coombs said also that the Commerce
Committee of the House. Of which he IS
a member, would report a bill to be pre-
sented on January 8. 1902. favOring the
construction of the Nicaragua canal at a
maximum depth Of thirty-five feet, the
details of construction and the procuring
of right of way to be left solely to the
President of the United States. This pro-
posed bill is in conflict with Senator Nor
gan's measure, which provides for COM
mission to pass upon these points.
Referring to the construction OF Pa
cific cable COOmbs said he feared the pub
lie sentiment was too vigorously opposed
TO the Government undertaking such an
enterprise to permit of the carrying out
of a scheme of national ownership.

WITNESS DEFIES
AETURAS COURT
Refuses to Testify in
Trial Of Alleged
Lyncher.
The Entire Day Is Spent in
Argument by Judge and
Attorneys.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

ALTURAS, Dec 23.-It is no reflection
on the court but rather on certain of the
counsel, to say that the trial of James w.
Brown. the alleged Lookout lyncher, has
degenerated to a comedy of the monkey
and-parrot order. Practically the entire
time to-day was spent in an argument as
to whether a recalcitrant witness should
be made to answer questions Clashes be-
tween the court and the attorneys for the
defense were more frequent than usual,
and time and again the lawyers were or
dered to take their seats. So accustomed
have they become to this procedure that
they to-day endeavored to adopt a time
saving policy by doing their talking while
seated. This greatly angered Judge Har-
rington, and Raker was told that he
would save himself trouble by arising
when he addressed the jury. Raker
obeyed Instructions, but the first remark
that he made was one that the court re-
garded improper, and the lawyer was
ordered to sit down.
The case of Defendant Fades was to-day
set for trial on January 13, and that OF
LeVanton on January q. In liking the
dates Judge Harrington made some re-
marks relative to separate trials before
juries. The defense objected to the court
making such statements, but Judge Har-
rngton instructed the court reporter and
clerk TO ignore the objection.
a. /. Colburn, who testified before the
Grand Jury and since that time has been
kept here in Jail to prevent his leaving
the country, as he feared to be a witness
in this case was called this morning. The
first question asked was if, about the 25th
of May, he had a conversation with Dep
uty Constable Brown about a warrant to
search the Hall home. Before answering
he asked permission to make a statement,
and the jury was sent out of the room,
Colburn said that there was a conVersa-
ton about that time and of that nature.
He declined to answer any further ques-
tionS, on the ground that his testimony
might tend to incriminate himself. Col
burn is one of the men whom Assistant
Attorney General Post seeks to have in
dicted for conspiracy as a result of his
refusal to testify against the other lynch
ers.
The court ordered the witness to answer
questions. and Colburn declined on the
ground that his testimony before the
Grand Jury had been, and was to be, used
against him by Post.
SturteVant asked COlburn if Brown did
not tell him that the prisoners, meaning
Hall and the others, would be got rid Of
within three days. Again he declined to
answer When threatened with being sent
to jail he said that he had already been
in Jail six months and would just as soon
go back.
The status of Witness Colburn had not
been decided when the time for adjourn
ment arrived this afternoon. The entire
afternoon was spent in a three-cornered
argument between the prosecution, the
defense and the court as to whether Col
burns refusal to testify constituted con-
tempt.

Cool in the hour of danger, Mrs KEGS al
most broke down when her reward came.
The mutiny occurred as the prisoners
were being put into their cells for the
night. Before Jailer Malone could fasten
