The o~overnors position 81 the insul

The governors position on the insur-
anceo q public buildings is hardly ten
able. It might be good policy for the
state to carry its own insurance il it was
a commonwealth with aplethoric treas
ury, but North Dakota is young and not
strong enough to such a risk. True
the governor suggests that in case the
legislature sees fit to insure it's oWn insti-
tutions a contingency appropriation
measur be passed s that should an
institution burn its immediate rebuild
ing would be insured. This is imprac-
teal. Supposing the state university,
asylum or ~penitentiary should be des-
tros.ed by fire, where would the money
come from to rebuild? There viii be no
money in the treasury and we have
reached our bonded debt limit SO that
funds could not be secured from this
source. The contingency appropriations
would not procure the funds. We can
not AT this period IN our development
afford to carry oursoWn insurance risks.

! ''For diplomatic kindness I will never
forget one man." remarked a well
known sportsman of Pittsbnrg. .He
certainly knew how to do the right
thing. and although it didn't cost him
anything it helped a crowd Of us out
of an embarrassing predicament for
the time. A party of young fellows,
myself in the. number, were camping
years ago on the Beaver river, not far
from Rock point. None of us had much
money after getting u outfit and the
farmers got about all that was left
in exchange for milk and butter. One
day three of us decided to go up to the
picnic grounds, and, just as luck would
have it, We met a crowd Of girls from
Jul own town. 1t was a happy meet
ing all around until some fool girl
suggested that we all get our pictures
taken. To save our lives, the three of
us boys couldn't have raised a total Of
l6 cents, but like true soldiers Of for
tune we decided to go ahead and trust
to luck to meet the obligation.

PLANT ENDS IN MURDER.

CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-The contest be-
tween union and non-union men at the
Allis-C Chalmers machine shop in this city,
where a strike has been in progress for
several months, resulted tonight in the
killing of union man who was patrolling
the factory district in disregard of the
recent Injunction issued by Judge Kohl
saat, of the federal court. The dead man
is supposed to be George Trapp, and his
slayer was Andrew Burkhauser, who re-
Gently came here from Baltimore.
Trapp, in company with another man,
attacked Burkhauser and a second non
union man. and felled Burkhauser to the
ground with piece of gas pipe. While he
lay on the ground Burkhauser drew a
revolver and fired shot at Trap; the
bullet striking him in the left eye. Death
resulted in a short time. Burkhauser was
arrested in the doctors office, where he
was having his head ssewed up.

LOSS OF LIFE APPALLING
Fire Started in an oil-soaked Build
ing at the Mouth of the Mine
and Suifocating Smoke
Filled the Levels
ONLY HALF THE MEN GOT OUT

TELLURIDE, Col, Nov. 20.-What is
likely to prove the most disastrous acci-
dent that has ever occurred in metallic
mine in Colorado, resulted today from
fire which burned the buildings at the
mouth of the Bullion tunnel, through
which the Smuggler-Union mine is work.
ed, and which filled the nine with deadly
gas and smoke. 1t is impossible to give
even an approximate estimate of the loss
of life, but it is believed that 1t Will
reach nearly if not quite 100. Twenty-Five
are known to have perished.
The fire started from a defective fiue in
the bunk house at the mouth of the tun-
mel It quickly communicated with the
other buildings. The dense smoke from
the burning converter house, which was
saturated with oil, began pouring into
the tunnel, which with the shafts OF the
mine acted as q chimney.
The day shift had just gone on duty
and before they could be warned of their
danger the levels and the slopes were
filled with gas.
Many Could Not Get Out.
AS soon as the men became aware
of their danger efforts were made to
reach the surface through the various
exits, and about half of those in the
mine escaped. 1t will be impossible to
ascertain the number still in the mine
for several hours on account Of gas in
some of the levels.
The Smuggler-Union is one of the old
est mines in the district, and has several
abandoned openings, some of which
were available. Most of those who es-
capped did so through the old Union
workings and the old Sheridan tunnel.
A rescuing party cut connection
through from the Commission workings
adjoining, and took out part OF the men.
Although the buildings were partly con-
sumed the dense smoke continued to
pour into the tunnel, and 1t was not
until o'clock this afternoon that it oc-
Cured to the management to shut off the
draft by blasting rock into the tunnel.
1t is believed by mining men that had
| this been done as soon as the fire start
ed all loss of life might have been avert
ed.
The property loss is about $4,000, fully
covered by insurance.
Taking Out the Bodies.
1t was o'clock before the first body
was taken out, and by o'clock twenty
two bodies had been recovered. Hugh
j. O'Neill, the engineer, was taken out
alive, but is +, not expected to recover
Every physician in Telluride was sum-
moned to the mine. They were kept
busy attending those OF the rescuers
who were overcome by gas.
Seventeen of the twenty-five bodies re-
covered were found OH The seventh level.
Between seventy-five and ninety men
were working on the ninth level, and this
has not yet been explored. On account
of the gas and smoke these levels could
not be entered. as there is great danger
FROM suffocation within twelve hours
from the time the flames started.

HARE-BRAINED SCHEME
WAS SLIGHT FOUNDATION FOR
YUKON REBELLION STORY.
Seattle Money Said to Have Been
Available to Back Up the Would
BE RevolutiOnists - Prompt
Action Killed the Plan.

VANCOUVER, Nov. 2o.-The Yukon in
surrection story is not altogether WITH
out foundation. Some hare-brained Ameri-
cans drew UP plans for forcibly dispos-
ing the government and police in the
Yukon, somewhat similar to the hisrori-
cal Jameson raid in the Transvaal. Maj.
Woods, N. w. NJ. P, discovered the
scheme and took prompt steps to sup
press it, American officials at Skagway
cooperating The discovery of the
scheme is supposed to have nipped it in
the bud The Yukon police force consists
of 25O men, who are provided with Lee
Enfields. When the scheme was first
discovered Maxim and Colt guns We're
mounted at White Horse. which was the
first place to be attacked. Maj. snyder,
in charge of the police there, also re-
ceived reinforcements, and patrols were
kept on duty night and day.
1t is said the scheme originated in Sc
attic, and $250,O00 was available to aid the
venture. The information has been OBJ
tanned from former police officers of the
Yukon force and members Of the gam
bling fraternity who have come to the
coast cities for the winter, and is guard
edly confirmed by the officials Who nave
lust come down from the north.
C. D. Newton, a member of the Atiin
Board of Trade, who arrived recently
from the North, speaking of the alleged
conspiracy to overthrow the Yuksn gov
ernment, said he had heard of it before
he left the North, but had paid little
attention to it. Some Of the "Soapy
Smith gang, he states, are still to be
found at Skagway, but, although they
have a few sympathizers, they are by
no means the dominant element there.
1t was to them that Mr.. Newton attri-
buted any conspiracy now threatened,
while the same element was at the bot
tom of the flag incident. Should they
ever attempt to rise in rebellion, he be-
lieves that the good American residents
would be among the first to suppress
