FIRE IN A COLLIERY.
Seventeen Men Are Dead as a Result
at Victoria, b. C.-Flames
Spread Rapidly,

Victoria, B. c.. Oct 2.-seventeen
men are dead as a result of a fire and
explosion in Extension Mine No.. 2,
belonging to the wellington Colliery
company. The flames started from a
curtain which caught fire from a
miners lamp.
The fire broke out at the bottom of
level No. and was communicated
across the slope by one of the cur
tains. In half an hour the whole
slope was on fire. Rescuers f1ocked
to the mine and reached the place
where the miners had been>at work,
but the men had gone, running with
the fresh air instead Of against it in
an attempt to get out by the accus-
toned route, thus meeting death half
way. While the rescuers were at
work the mine exploded, blocking
them, and explosions continued all the
afternoon and evening. When it was
realized that the men could not be
saved a strong force started to choke
the mine. but their work was undone
by terrific explosion which blew
down the barricade.
The mines have been sealed to pre-
vent the ingress of air and so
smother the flames. This is the only
possible way of killing the fire and
it will take months and perhaps years
to effect the result desired.

Native Uprising.

Washington, Oct. 3.-The state de-
partment received Wednesday a ca
blegram from United States Consul
McWade, at Canton, China, confirm
ing the reported uprising in the
Singing district. Thed ispatch fol-
lows:
"Canton. Oct 2, 1901-Secretary of State,
Washington D. c.: Gen. WI with $500 SOL
diers routed Triad rebels in Singing dis

decapitating many prisoners. German
mission burned. German missionaries fled

This dispatch, taken in connection
with previous advices the department
has had from Minister Conger, leads
to the belief that the Boxers have
had nothing to do with the present

turbance, growing out of famine con-
ditions, which the Chinese govern
ment can suppress.

THE LAST CROP REPORT.
Weather Bureau Issues the Final
y Summary of Season as to Ag-
ricultural Conditions.

Washington, Oct. 2.-Following is
the last weekly summary Of crop con-
dltlons to be issued by the weather
bureau this season:
"The temperature conditions of the week
ending September 80 were highly favorable
throughout the central valleys, lake region,
Middle Atlantic states and New England
and no damaging frosts occurred in these
districts. Heavy rains in the Upper Mis-
souri, valley and Minnesota interfered with
farm work and caused some damage to
hay and stacked grain in South Dakota and
Nebraska Excessive rains also inter-
ferred with farm work in portions of the
South Atlantic and East Gulf states. Rain is
generally needed in Illinois, Indiana and
southern Michigan to put the soil In con-
dltion for plowing and fall seeding and also
over the greater part of Texas for pas.
lures and truck farms. On the North Pa.
cific coast the week has been cool and wet
with damaging frosts in Oregon and Wash
1ngton. Injurious frosts also occurred ove1
the Middle Rocky mountain districts.
The week has been favorable for matur.
ing and gathering corn, and reports from
the principal corn states indicate that E
much larger acreage than usual at this
date has been cut. The crop is now prac.
tlcally safe from frost in all districts.
only small part of the tobacco crop
and that in Kentucky and Tennessee, re-
mains unhoused. The reports generally in
dicate that this crop has been secured IL
satisfactory condition.
I'm Kansas and portions of Missouri, Ar
kansas. Illinois and West Virginia, NOR,
particularly in the first-named state, tn,
reports respecting apples are encouraging
but no Improvement is reported from othe
districts.
FLOWING and seeding have progressed

er Missouri valley has come up in excellen
condition. In southern Michigan and por
t1on OF the Ohio and Central Mississippi
Valleys, however. ploWing and seeding

COLUMBIA WINS FIRST.
Remarkably close Contest with
4 Shamrock II. In Which Cup De-
T. So fender IstvictoriOus, .=r,

: New York, Sept. 30.-The Column
bia in the first race of the America
cup series, Is miles to windwrad
and return, defeated Shamrock II. by
35 seconds actual time and one min
ute and 25 seconds corrected time,
Both yachts sailed well, and the
Shamrock led at the turn of the outer
mark by Al seconds.
The Shamrock took 2:24:58 to beat
Is miles to windward, which was at
the rate (allowing that 20 miles was
the actual distance covered) of about
1928 per mile, or about eight knots
per hour In the run home the Co.
lumbia covered the course of Is miles
in 2:05:30. This was at the rate OF
7:17 knots per hour. The Columbia
crossed the home line 35 seconds
ahead of the Shamrock. Boat for
boat, the Columbia won by 81 sec:
onds. The time allowance by the Off.
cial table was 43 seconds. BY cor
rected time the Columbia won by one
minute and 20 seconds.
. New York, Oct. 2.-The wind, which
was blowing; early Tuesday morning
at 15-knot rate, eased up as the time
for the starting of the big yachts over
the triangular course drew near, and
when at 10: As the prepare tory gun was
fired the wind was blowing not over
four knots an hour. The Columbia
was first over the line. at 11:OO:10, fol.
lowed by the Shamrock at 11:0O:22
IVNho Cho H. +,,r Il -,
at 2:41:36, official time, and the Colum-
bia, 2:44:44, over three minutes be.
hind the Shamrock.
The yachts had covered but few
more miles in the light wind when, at
3:40, the committee boat hoisted the
signal declaring the race off, as it
was an impossibility to complete the
remaining distance within the time
limit. At that time the Shamrock
was about half mile ahead and in
the last half hour of sailing seemed
to have increased her lead over the
Columbia.
New York, Oct. 3.-At meeting of
the Representatives of the Royal Ulster
Yacht cub and the New York Yacht
club the agreement as to the days rae
ing was so modified that it now reads
that the yachts will sail on the follow
ing dates until the series is complet-
ed: October and on each following
day, except Sunday, provided, how
ever that Immediately on the conclu-
sion of the race of October 3 and each
subsequent race the regatta committee
shall inquire of each contes tant wheth
he is willing to start the next day, and
should either contestant reply in the
negative, one day shall intervene be-
fore starting the next race. Sunday
shall not count as such intervening g
day.

4 RACE WAR.
Negroes and Texcs Planters Fight
Over Harvesting CrOps-Six Men
Reported Killed.

Dallas. Tex, Oct. "A race war,
which resulted in the killing of one
white and five blacks, is reported from
Harrison county. The conflict began
near Hallville, but has spread through
out the county. The trouble had it's
origin in dispute between planters
and negro tenants over the harvesting
of the cotton crop. The negroes, it is
said, refused to gather the cotton, and
their action threa tened to deprive the
planters of their share of the yield as
well as the money lent to the blacks
to purchase supplies during the sea-
son. A body of white men, it is said,
went Saturday to the house of negro,
Thomas Walker, on the plantation of
Julien Atwood. Walker fired on the
party, killing Atwood, and then fled,
with the whites in pursuit. Two ne
groes, one of whom is supposed to have
been Walker, were caught and hanged.
Two more, it is said, were hanged Sun
day in the timber near the Gregg coun-
ty line. George Muckleroy was taken
out at night near Marshall and whipped
to death.
