AWFUL DEATH
BY SUFFOCATION
Wdterw0rks Tunnel Burns and
Thirty Men Perish.
SIX BODIES ARE RECOVERED

Cleveland, Aug. IA Thirty men
suifocated and a number of men
drowned early this morning in the
water works tunnel is the latest
report from the scene of an awful
horror
Early this morning the tim ber-
ing in the water works tunnel
caught fire and the workmen we're
caught like rats in a trap. They
had to either go out into the lake
and drown or go back into the
tunnel and be sutfocated
Thirty men were at work in the
tunnel when the fire broke out and
all may be dead, At 6 o'clock this
morning when tug reached the
scene the fire had died down
Somewhat The life saving crew
soon reached the scene in tugs
but nothing could be done TO
learn whether the men were alive
or dead
The opinion of some is that the
men all perished for want of air
Others think they were saved as
the compressed air might possibly
not have been cut out.
At 10 o'clock six charred bodies
had been found.

Good Crops.

J E. Watson. foreman of the
Livesey- Lees Live Stock company,
was in town last evening He
said that the grass there was in
good condition and that the cattle
are rolling in fat.
MIR Watson travels the valleys
and mountains great deal on
horseback and he said that the
crops in the Wet Mountain valley
would be abundant this year For
the past two weeks it has been
visited by heavy rains
Cardy Lees, of the firm of Live
-ey-Lees, is operating a grist mill
at WestcIiife and reports that he is

han he did last, and the demand
upon the mill is increasing. He

Make 1t a Model smelter.

Manager Danforth of the Rocky
Mountain smelter at Florence is
in the city at headquarters of the
company consulting in regard to
the work which is now in progress
upon the plant. 1t is proposed to
make the smeller one of the largest
and most up-to-date of all the
smelters of the West and to handle
any class Of ore that is presented
The improvements are upon u
scale never before attempted by
any smelter company in the West.
Having solved the problem of
handling the low grade silicate
ores of Cripple Creek, the next
step is to adapt the smelter to ores
c ming from higher parts of the
r uge Rocky Mountain News.

pied condition but with enough tc
work it. This is a gain for the
corporation
Pittsburg, Aug. 1.-THE situa-
ton up to noon today is praoti-
cally as follows: The number OF
men who have directly obeyed the
the order of President Shaffer is
about 10000 Others who struck
for different causes or were rem
dered idle by strikers, $1,000. The
manufacturers and strikers hold
their own today, AT Chicago. Jo-
liet, Youngstown, Columbus and
at the Carnegie plants work is con
tinued. The trust also scored by
reopening two mills. the big Paint
er at Pittsburg and the Crescent
at Cleveland
On the other hand 1900 men
and boys quit work at the National
tube works at Mckeesport. This
cripples one of the institutions
upon which the trust relied for
loyalty.
Upon the whole honors remain
about even between the conflicting
forces.
Pittsburg, Aug. IA Rumors
were current early this afternoon
of strike settlement, but confir-
nation thus far is impossible. 1t
is stated circumstantialiy that
the amalgamated workers on the
one hand feel that they cannot
win. On the other hand the cor
porations fear the loss of skilled
men which would be most serious
loss. Under the circumstances
another effort for settlement does
not seem improbable

Withdrawn from National Council.

CAMDEN, N. J., Jan. 9.-Past State Coun-
selor Maurice A. Rogers, Of the New Jar
sey Junior Order United American Me-
chanics, tonight formally announced that
the State Council has severed its connec-
ton with the National Council of the order.
The withdrawal. Mr.. Rogers. said was
brought about by the arbitrary methods

radical readjustment of the basis of rep

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The House to-
day considered the river and harbor bill.
Little progress was made. In a bill carry
ing such a vast sum for local improve
ments. many localities are bound &c lie
disappointed and there is generally con-
siderable soreness among the members who
fail to get what they want. This soreness
outcropped in several places to-day. the
disappointed members refusing to allow
any limit to be placed on the geneial de-
bate. II extended throughout the Gay, be-
ing seemingly no nearer conclusion at adj
Journment han when il started. AIR. Bur-
ton, chairman of The committee on rivers
and harbors, who is in charge of the bin,
made an elaborate explanation of its pro-
visions. Several Western members as
sailed it for not containing provisions for
irrigation reservoirs and Mr.. Corliss, of
Michigan, alacked it for not giving proper
recognition of the great lakes deep water
way project.
In reply to a question by Mr.. Hepburn,
Mr.. Burton said the sundry civil bill would
carry about IS, 900 on contracts previously
authorized. The total of direct dppfcp.l1-
