COSTLY REPAIRS AT AMERICUs
Railroad Pays a Pretty Penny Fo1
Washouts.

The Central Railroad has not yet
completed the repairs to its track,
caused by the cloudburst here two
weeks ago, though to the extent of
keeping all trains running. The col
lapse of timbers from the Seaboard
trestle across the Central's track In
the Americus yard made swash hole
large enough to put a house IN. Some
idea of the size of this can be had
when it Is known that already nearly
$50 carloads of dirt have been dumped
into it, and the hole is not yet filed.
The washouts on this division may
cost the road something like $4,000.

U. S. Officials Will Investigate Cargo
Of Warlike Goods.
(By Associated Press.)

\Dy kASSOt4dlCu 11CSS.J
San Francisco, Oct. 26.-Suspicious cir
cumstances surrounding big shipment
of arms and ammunition on the Chilean
steamer Loa, now lying in this port, has
led to action by the United States officials
to prevent any possibility of the warlike
goods reaching the hands of Central
American insurgents.
The cases contain $500 Remington rifles
and bayonets and 250,000 ball cartridges.
The bills of lading show that the guns
and ammunition came to this city from
Ell Paso where they are supposed to have
been re-shipped from some point in
Mexico.
The ships manifest stated that the
munitions Of war were for the govern
ment of Salvador and We're to be landed
at Acajutia.
The consul general Of Salvador here
tfisclaims knowledge of the shipment.
through Schwartz Bros, the ostensible
shippers claim to be acting for Bloom
Bros, OF New York, who are agents for
the government of Salvador.
The steamer will be held pending an
investigation by the United States au-
thorities.

REPORTS DON'T AGREE.
Three Conflicting Statements as to
Movements Of Brigands.

\by ASSOCIdleu IIeSS.J
New York, Oct. 26.-Three reports,
each corroborative of the others, have
been received from widely different
sources concerning the movements of the
brigands who hold Miss Stone and Nine.
Tsilka captives.
One is that the band, which consisted
of IS men has been dissolved in the
mountains near Jeltepe and that fifteen
of the members have returned to their
homes.
The remaining three members are said
to have been made custodians of the
prisoners and it is claimed that they are
holding them in the wooded recesses OF
Jeltepe, which is in Turkey, about 20
miles from the Bulgarian frontier
Another version of the situation is that
because of the early and heavy fall of
snow in the mountains the brigands and
their prisoners have come down from
the mounta aims and are now located near
Nevrokup, in the foothills of the noun
tains in which Jeltepe is located.
The third report comes from Constan-
tinople and is to the effect that communi-
cation has been opened with the brigands
from point in Turkish territory.

DIES IN A DITCH
FRANK MEDARS MEETS A FEAR
Full FATE.
SUFFOCATES UNDER EARTH
Unfortunate Man Perishes Miserably
Within a Few Feet of Help, if
Only His Plight Had Been
Known.

Buried beneath a load of dirt, at the
bottom of five-foot ditch, and N plain
sight and hearing of fellow workmen,
and fully 20 residents of Utah street,
Frank Medars slowly suffocated and
died without hand being raised to as
sist him this morning.

Mystery in the Death.
Just how he died is only surmsed, as
no one witnessed the accident, although
there We're numbers of people in the
near vicinity.
George r. Briggs and H. c. Lemke
were working with Medars. They left
the ditch at about $3.50 o'clock and re-
turned an hour later.
They We're startled to find no trace of
Medars, and on making a search found
the sides Of the excavation had caved in.
No one knew of the mans wherea bouts.
Lenlke started to dig out the trench
and almost instantly struck his shovel
against the back of Medars. Hasty work
uncovered the body, but life was already
extinct.
Caused by Suffocation.
The proba bility is that the cave in
happened soon after the other men left,
and Medars slowly died of suffocaton.
He was under the dirt for possibly three
quarters of an hour.
The pody was barely covered, there
being hardly hal a foot of dirt over the
head. Medars was lying face downward
and is supposed to have been stunned
by falling earth. as it looked possible for
him if sensible to have forced his way
up through the thin covering
The police were notified aud after
some delay DR.. T. G. Odell was notified
and taken to the scene in the patrol
wagon. The physician pronounced the
man beyond help and the coroner was
notified to take charge of the body.
