FIRE FOLLOWS EXPLOSION
Talk of Turning River Into
 the Shaft.
Many Opposed to the Idea for Fear of Drowning the Men-Crowds Surround the Mouth
 of Mine.

Port Royal, Pa, June 10.-The Pitts burg Coal and Coke Company's shaft. No. 2. at this place. is again on fire, and over thirty men are in the mine, many of whom, it is feared, will never be heard from again. Among the num- Der are William McCune, Superintend- ent of the district: Dennis Wortley, pit boss ard Michael Roy. a foreman of the Euclid mines.
 About o'clock smoke was seen to be issuing from the shaft. It Is thought the fire started from an explosion, and that six men were in the mine at the time, Jack Peoples, Tony Stickles, Frank Davenport. - Daly, Law renee Settler and John Stakes. Stakes and Settler were not near 'the place in which the explosion occurred, and upon the arrival of a rescue party, they were quickly brought to the surface, after being nearly overcome by after-damp. They could give no information as to what caused the fire, and told the res- cue party that four other men were entombed.
 About o'clock William McCune. General Superintendent of this dis trict: Dennis Wortley, pit boss of the mine, Michael Ross, foreman>of the Euclid mines. and several other bosses, with about twenty men, went down shaft No. i, which is just opposite, and have not been heard from since.
 More Explosion Heard.
 About three hours after the rescue party entered the mine, two more ex- plosions were heard. Meantime, the crowd around the opening of the shaft, including many mothers, wives and sis- ters of men entombed, had increased. All sorts of plans have been suggested for the rescue of the men. Some talk of turning the river into the mines. but many are opposed to this idea for fear Of drowning the miners. All that would be necessary would be to pull a plug which was placed in the mines after the explosion of seven years ago, and the water would rush into the mines at a rapid rate.
 At II o'clock tonight, four men. vol unteered to go down shafts No. and No. 3 and one man down No. 1, but up tn this time. 1t is not known whether they have succeeded in making any rescues. Gas and smoke are issuing from the mines at midnight, and over POO men, women and children are wait ing for some news of relatives.
 At 8 o'clock this morning heavy vol umes of smoke are still issuing from the mine and hope of saving any of the entombed men. miners or rescuers, is fast disappearing.

 Prince had mistaken Curtain for a reporter.
 Two witnesses testified to seeing Mrs. Kennedy and Will Prince going in the direction of Kennedy's office on the af- ternoon of the murder.
 Elizabeth Bottman told of the two boarding a car for down town, and of Will Prince requiring his sister to do something. Witness did not catch Will's words, but heard her answer:
 'AlI right: will" Ownership of Revolver.
 It is believed Will Prince furnished the revolver with which the woman killed Kennedy and accompanied her to near the scene of tho killing, nervine her to the point of the crime.
 Noon recess was then taken by the court.
 This afternoon W. H. Arnold testified to seeing defendant and Will Prince to- gether few hours before the murder, and saw Will hand his sister a hand kerchief.
 Mrs. Patti Moore. the police matron, wko has had charge of the prisoner since her arrest, told how Mrs. Ken nedy on her first night in jail described the killing of ner husband. She had been calm and collected, said witness and when her family arrived later, they were rather happy than otherwise.
 Mrs. Moore declared that during Mrs Kennedy's five months in jail, none of the symptoms of pregnancy had been evident

 Berlin, June 10.-Mr. Stern's consular services at Bamberg yielded excellent results. He promoted exports of roof ing slate to the United States, and he also secured for Americans the con- tract for the Bamberg electric railway. He had suffered, however, under finan- cial obligations incurred in St. Paul prior to his appointment. This embar- rassment greatly depressed him. al- though it Is understood that the dif- ficulty was settled some time ago.
 Ultimately he got into a morbid and gloomy state of mind. He imagined that as a Hebrew, his American col leagues in Germany disliked him and also that his Hebrew status prevented him from securing Government promo tion. On certain public occasion in Berlin year ago, MT. Stern felt ag- grieved at the tone of speeches made present. He thought the speakers meant to belittle him as a Hebrew. all of which was purely imaginary. Dur ing the last twelve months this morbid ness had grown into a settled melan- choly; and he entirely ceased consular work. except duties of a merely routine character. This resulted about a month ago in his recall.
 From that moment his moroseness increased. but he fingered in Bamberg, disregarding the advice of his friends that he should return to the United States, where a responsible position was open to him. He leaves a widow, but no children. It is understood that his accounts are in a satisfactory con- dition.

 Now that the permanence ot the Glenn district is assured, steps should be taken to insure a good trail to the new diggings. The old summer trail via Big Minook Is failure. X trail could be construct ed along the ridge beginning at the head of Rampant creek. This IS perfectly feasible; a number of men have followed this ridge the past summer and ali pronounce 1t tile best and quickest route to the new district. Such trail could be con s;ructed at a trifling cost, taking into consideration the benif1t to the business of the town, that W Ill come from the new discovery.
 The members of the bar, and the citizens of Nome have forwarded a petition to the president, asking that Judge Moves be removed, and that his successor be appointed at once. The situation at Nome is grave one, and gun plays are of daily occurrence, due to contradic- tory orders issued by Moves before his departure.
 Agent Baker has written to Daw- son, according to the News, that should the new strike prove exten- sive, the new town will be at the mouth of Baker creek. Baker has another guess coming

Pullman
Ordinary Sleepers

The tourist travel between the East
and the Pacific Coast has reached enor-
nous proportions in the last few years,
and calls for Il special class OF equipment.
To meet this demand the Pullman Com
pany has issued from its shops what it
technically calls the pullman Ordinary
Sleeper" These cars appear similar to
the regular sleepers, being built on the
same plan, but not furnished with the
same elegance. They are equipped with
mattresses, blankets, sheets, pillows,
pillow cases, towels, combs, brushes, ETC.,
requiring nothing OF the kind to be fur.
nished by the passenger. Each car has
stove for making tea and coffee and
doing Eight housekeeping and each
section can be fitted with an adjustable
table. A uniformed porter accompanies
each car, his business being to make up
berths, keep the car clean, and look after
the wants and comforts OF the passen-
gers. In each OF the trains which are
dispatched daily from Portland by the U.
X. 4 N. Co. is to be found one of these
"Pullman Ordinary Sleepers." The car
attached to the Chicago Portland
Special goes through to Chicago with
out change, and the one in the atlantic
Express" runs to Kansas City without
change. Passengers in this car for Chi
cago change to a similar car at Granger.
Much of the first class travel is icing
carried in these cars, the rates being
lower, and the service nearly equal to
that in the palace sleepers.

ing folders, write to A. l.. CRAIG, Cen
