SOLDIER TRANSPORT HELD.


Port Townsend, Wash, July g.
The United States transport Kintuck
arrived yesterday morning from
Nagasski with 200 soldiers on board,
and is held in the stream pending the
decision Of Surgeon General Wyman,
whether she will be sent to Diamond
Point quarantine station. While
at Nagasaki, q case Of bubonic plague
developed on the Kintuck, and the
victim was taken ashore, where he
died. The vessel was fumigated and
detained 10 days in quarantine at
Nagasaki, and then allowed to pro-
ceed on her voyage to this city. No
new case developed during the voyage,
but before allowing her TO enter DR..
M. H. Foster, United States quaran-
tine officer, deemed it best to commu-
nicate with the authorities at Wash
ington, and pending . reply, the ves-
sci is anchored in the stream with the
yellow flag flying. Communication
with her is forbidden.

TUNNEL cAveo IN.
Narrow Escape sf Passenger la N Express
11oja

Baltimore, July 2.-The roof Of the
Union Railroad tunnel in the eastern
section of the city, used and con.
trolled by the Pennsylvania Railroad,
caved in shortly before 2 O'Clock this
morning. II is supposed that de-
feet in the arch of the tunnel caused
the accident.
A narrow escape from death or ser
ious injury was experienced by the
passengers and crew of an express
train which was caught by the falling
debris in the tunnel. As far as can
be learned, the avalanche OF earth
and rocks caught the rear express
car, which was Immediately In front
of the passenger cars. The train was
not running rapidly and the jar was
not severe. The engineer quickly
brought his train to full stop and
word was sent from . signal tower to
the Union station. A yard engine
was sent into the tunnel and the
thinly filled passenger coaches were
drawn back to Union station without
the occupants being aware OF the dan
ger through which they had passed.

days before leaving for Germany to

Of Baron Won Ketteler.
Mr.. DENLY, who, whom the foreign
troops arrived, was appointed by the
Chinese Merchants' Company TO pro-
tect its property, says the company,
in its claim against the United States
government, did not use the word
''loot" against the marines, but mere
ly held them responsible. The
greater part Of the company's proper
ty consisted of rice, which was after
wards distributed under orders from
the British and American generals to
assist those in need. Mr.. DENLY
thinks the. company's CLAN should
have been added to the indemnity ~
legitimate expenditure. Other mer.
chants say the company never had
SOC, 900 taels' worth OF property here.
It is pointed out that the company
stored three boxes Of valuables with
the chartered bank before the trouble
began and did not withdraw these
until October, and that, consequently,
it is quite improbable any jewels
were left to he looted. Moreover. the
place was thoroughly gone through
by local looters before the allied forces
arrived. 1t would be legally impossi-
BILE to hold any portion Of the reliev-
ing force responsible for anything but
the rice and coal, which were used as
a military necessity, to feed Chinese
coolies who were forced to labor and
also those who were without means Of
livelihood.

RIOT At ROCHESTER,.
policemea and Strikers Fought and Many
Were lalured

Rochester, N. Y, June 28.-One
thousand striking laborers had a
brisk encounter with the police today,
in which IL policemen and 20 rioters
were injured. The rioters set out, as
several times before, too drive OF the
laborers working on street improve
ments. At Mill and Commercial
streets they encountered 30 laborers
employed by the Rochester Gas &
Electric company in digging a trench,
and drove them from the trench.
The workers sought refuge in the
power house of the company, and the
police undertook to disperse the mob.
The police reserves were drawn up in
q platoon of so across the street, and
upon orders advanced with drawn
clubs upon the mob. Immediately
the air was filled with bricks, stones
and wood, and shovels and picks in
the hands of the strikers were used
freely. Amid the melee shot rang
out and the sergeant commanding the
platoon ordered the police to fire over
the heads of the strikers. This had
the desired effect. The strikers scat
tered and the police, chased them
through the streets to the City Hall
Park, where they were held awaiting
action by the mayor.
Police reinforcements were hurried
to the scene of the riot, but their SER
vices were not required. The injuries
SUSTAINED by several of the policemen
are of . serious nature. The hurts OF
the rioters were mostly scalp wounds
inflicted by the officers clubs.

RAN OUT OF HER COURSE.


st. Johns. N. F., June 28.-The
Orient Steam Navigation Co mpany's
steamship Lusitania, from Liverpool,
June 18. for Montreal, having 800
passengers on board, was wrecked
last night OF Cape Ballard.
The Lusitania was bound round
Cape Race for Montreal with . large
cargo and . shipload of passengers.
She mistook her course in dense fog,
and went ashore near Renews, 20 miles
north of Cape Race. before daybreak.
The ship ran over reef. and hangs
against cliff. The passengers, who
are mostly einigrants, were panic
stricken. They stampeded and fought
for the boats, but were overcome by the
officers and crew The rougher ele-
ments among the passengers used
knives. The women and children
were first landed, and the men fol-
lowed. The crew stood by the ship.
A heavy sea was running, but at
latest advices the Lusitania was hold
ing her own. It is thought that she
will prove total wreck.
The passengers of the Lusitania
had q terrible experience. The first
knowledge they had of the disaster
was when, owing to the ship scraping
over the rocks, they were hurled from
their berths by the shock. A scene
of great excitement prevailed. Three
hundred people were clamOring to
escape, while the crew tried to pacify
them and launch the boats. The
male passengers in their attempt to
seize the boats, trampled the women
under foot and fought the crew with
knives. Some of the more cool head
ed of the passengers assisted the crew
in the efforts to get out the boats.
The women and children. almost
nude, were pulled up the cliffs by the
coast people.
The unhappy passengers, after
shivering for hours on the hilltop,
tramped weary miles to reach the
houses of the fishermen, where they
are now sheltered. Previous to reach
ing the cliffs, the passengers passed
two hours of terrible anxiety on the
wreck. As furious rain storm and
heavy sea ragged all night, it is feared
the Lusitania will be q total wreck
The last reports received here said
the steamer was breaking up, that
her foreholds were full of water and
that her cargo was being salvaged.
There is hope of saving the effects Of
the passengers, as, where possible,
they were stored above decks.

A Seattle friend of the writer
sends the following in q letter:
"These gentlemen surpass most
companies in humor and original
ity. The chords that provoke
laughter are kept vibrating by
them during their entire perform
auce. Life is infused into every
song, dance and act. The per-
Torrance goes with dash and a
vim and true ring Of merriment
from start to finish. There is not
stick in the entire company
and if you see their show Pm sure
you will be well pleased"
The company have a number OF
performing dogs and ponies to say
nothing of the eleven Eagles. The
papersin all the towns and cities
where the company have appeared
speak highly of their performance.
