Italian were not buried under the mass
of rock, and were the first found.
When the rescuing party began to re-
move the rock they found the mangled
bodies of O'Hara, Kelleher and Goron-
sky. The bodies of Madden and Dante
were buried under masses of rock which
could not be moved, and could not be ex-
tricated, although they were in plain
sight. 1t was the work of hours to drill
holes and charge them. At 2:45 in
the afternoon the charges were fired with
the result that the body of Foreman
Madden was removed piece meal The
next blast uncovered the body of Dan
ife
Mr.. o. V. v. Powers. senior assistant
engineer, in charge of the contract, said
that the fall of the rock would in no
way interfere with the safety of the tun-
mel.
Tonight it was said that the fallen
mass of rock had been blown to pieces
and that no more bodies had been found,
and it is not believed any more lives
were lost.
Owen Bly,, the section boss, who was
in charge of that portion of the tunnel,
was placed under arrest. He was later
taken to the Harlem police court and
remanded to the coroner's Office, where
Coroner yucca paroled him until tomor-
row.

rapidly filling boat into port, but the
water came in SO fast that before the
boat had been towed a mile inland she
was abandoned to her fate and soon went
down.
The State of Michigan has ben in serv-
ice on the Great Lakes since 1872. having
been built that year by Burger & Bur-
ger, of Manitowoc, and ran as first Good
rich liner between Chicago and Muske-
gon. She outlived the gale in which the
Alpena met her fate. Later she was
owned by Steve Drummond. of Detroit,
and ran between Detroit and Cleveland
She later passed into the hands of the
Peoples Steamship company. which oper-
ated her on Lake Huron.
Capt. Miles Barry purchased her for
$4,000 two years ago. She was valued
at $4,000 and was insured for $4,000.
Capt. Barry said tonight that he would
not attempt to raise her, as she is too far
out, and will be demolished by the heavy
seas of this season of the year.

BATTLE IN SAMAR
DETACHMENT OF THE NINTH IN
PANTRY IS ATTACKED BY
BOLOMEN
TEN KILLED. SIX WOUNDED
Enemy, Four Hundred Strong, Is
Reaten OFF, Leaving Eighty
One Dead On the
Field.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-The following
brief cablegram from Gen. Chaffee, re-
porting the fight of the Ninth infantry
in Samar Wednesday, was received at
the war department this afternoon:
Manila, Oct. 1S.-Corb.n, Adjutant Gen
eral, Washington: Forty-six men, Com
pany E, Ninth Regiment, United States
infantry, under First Lieutenant George
w. Wallace, in field, lower Candara, Sa-
mar, Were attacked by 400 bolomen, Oct

names not received. Eighty-ene of the
enemy left dead On the field. Enemy
beaten off. -"Cnaffee.''
AS of interest in connection with the
report from samar, Adjt. Gen. Corbin to-
day made public a report by Gen. Hughes
to Gen. Chaffee, dated Aug. 20, on the
situation in that island. Gen. Hughes
says:
CONDITION IN SAMAR.
''The progress in samar is satisfactory
IN some ways, and not in Others. The
nghtlng propensities of the war
faetion are are reduced almost to a
nuliity. The growth of our strength in
the estimation of the people is also quite
satisfactory. The fact is, their love for
the flesh pots, and incidentally for the
Americans who represent said pots, is
growing burdenSome, as the securing of
the hemp with which to pay for rice is
becoming heavy business. In nearly all
our posts, where the commander has ex-
erclsed good judgment, colonies of ma
tfves have come in and settled and con-
GUIDED they would set up their lares and
penates under our wing. These colonies
differ in strength, but in this vicinity or
between the Hibitan and Candara rivers,
about sixteen thousand have come in. In
the interior, Blanca, Aurora, Taviran.
Matuglno, Oquendo, ETC., have their colo
MES. The correspondence the troops have
captured shows that the armed forces
are deserting and breaking away from
military control of the Vicol leaders.
"The unsatisfactory features are the
slowness of the process of conversion.
the failure to get the rifles and the slow
ness and the difficulty in making roads
and trails. Every foot presents its pc
culiar obstacle, but the troops are doing
all that can be justly demanded of them:
and while efforts have been made to push
things faster, am entirely satisfied with
the results thus far secured. The COM
mands are small, but / hope I have not
made mistake in Understanding the
fighting ability of the forces now in the
field against US. would feel quite easy
If all officers of the organizations were
present, but it is fully appreciated that
some of the attachments are commanded
by officers who have really never been
shot over.
"Just at this date the bulk of the rifles
seem to be in the region just west of the
Catublg river. There are now five de-
tachments in there making it uncomfort-
able for the people; one on the Pambujan,
one on the Mondragon, two moving east
from the upper Catarman and one NOV
ing north from Taviran and San En-
rique. The Pambujan mountain is the
objective, speaking generally, of all these

BARRY LINE STEAMER
AT BOTTOM OF LAKE

MUsKEGON, Mich. Oct. 1s.-The Bar
ry line steamer State of Michigan sank at
o'clock this morning, about four miles
northwest of White Lake harbor. The
boat is now lying in sixty feet of water,
in the path of east-bound steamers. The
crew escaped in boats, with the assist
ance of the White Lake ltfe-saving crew
The Michigan left this port last night,
bound for Manistee. to ply in the salt
trade between that port and Chicago.
When off White Lake the piston rod of
the engine broke, and, according to the
story of the captain, broke hole through
the bottom of the boat, through which
the water poured with such force and
quantity that the engine hands were
driven out of the ROOM The alarm was
spread quickly, and men were sent
ashore for assistance. The accident oc-

shares. 1t was held that this power rests
in the company, and that the sharehoId-
ers are the company.
LEGAL ISSUE INVOLVED
On the other hand, the charter and bv-
laws of the present Northern Pacific COM
Pany grant unusual liberty of action to
the directors, who have virtually, it Is
SAID, every power and right which the
shareholders possess. That the preferred
stock could be retired by mutual agree
ment on Jan. 1 next there is no doubt
whatever. This privilege may be exer-
elsed on any Jan. L prior to 1917, at par,
IN whole or in part, on the shareholders
receiving reasonable notice. and there is
plenty Of time for such notice
Another strongly held opinion is that,
although the face of the certificate for
Northern Pacific preferred shares calls
for their retirement on payment of S1OO,
the company cannot, under the laws Of
Wisconsin, in which state it is incorpo-
rated, pay off the preferred issue in cash,
if objection is made. 1t was also asserted
today that the preferred shareholders
. have equal rights with the common
shareholders to subscribe for any new
stock which may be issued to take up the
preferred issue. There is s75OO9,o00 of
this, and considerable majority of it is
held by Kuhn-Loeb interests and they
hold a majority of the total outstanding
shares. The names of the present North
ern Pacific directors are of interest in
this connection and are: Robert Bacon,
George F. Baker Edward H. Hartman,
James J. Hill. Brayton Ives, D. Willis
James, James S. Kennedy, Daniel S. La
mont, Charles S. Mellen, Samuel Rel,
William Rockefeller, Charles Steeles
James Stillman, Eben B. Thomas and
Hamilton Mex. Twombly, Messrs. Harri-
man, Hill, Rea, Rockefeller and Twombly
being those nominated by Mr.. Morgan.
At the Northern Pacific shareholders
meeting on Oct. /, Robert Bacon, of Nor
gan & Co, voted on proxies for 1,400,0 COO
shares out of 1,55O,OG0 shares, which ino
cluded the Kuhn-Loeb holdings. This
would apparently leave $15,000,00O 90
Northern Pacific not in the pool. 1t is
stated, however, on good authority that
there are now barely two score of stock
holders of record, and that the Deutsche
Bank of Berlin holds less than 100 shares.

VENEZUELAN MONEY
SINKS IN THE SEA

wILLEMsTAD, Island OF Curacao, Oct.
here today from Aruba island, northwest
of Curacao, brings the story that the
Arends, a Venezuelan schooner, bound
from LaGuayara, for Maracaiba, carry
ing q sum of money from the govern
nent destined to pay the troops on the
frontier-the amount being variously es-
timated at from $4,000 to S1O0,0OO-encoun-
tered heavy weather last Sunday night
off Aruba island and foundered in deep
wafer, the entire sum being lost. The
crew, according to the story, reached the

island in a boat. The money is suppos-
ed to have been part of the sum raised
in Caracas a fortnight ago from the
Bank of Venezuela by President Castro.
If it is actually the case, the government
has sustained a very severe blow. The
sinking of the schooner was attended
with certain suspicious circumstances.
The weather Sunday night was calm,
and the captain of the Arends resides
on Aruba island. There are other minor
details pointing to the possibility of coll
lusion with outsiders to secure possession
of the money.

is Peruna that has given me such
good health. u. Makinson.
AS result of the changeable eli
mate, catarrh has become one of the
most prevalent and universal dis
cases known to man. Nearly one
third of the people Of the United
States are afflicted with catarrh in
some of its many phases and Stages.
Add to this the ract that catarrh rap
idly tends to become fixed or chronic,
also the further fact that 1t Is ca
pable of producing great many
other diseases, and we begin to real
size the true nature of this dread dis
ease.
So formidable has catarrh become
that in every city or town of any
size numerous doctors are to be
found who make the treatment of ca
tarrh a specially. OF course a great
deal Of good is accomplished in this
way, but as yet comparatively
small number of the people can avail
themselves of this treatment be-
cause of the great expense necessa-
rily attached to it.

About the Orient.

Kansas City, Mo-, Feb. 25.-A. Fer
nandez, of the City of Mexico, cousin
of President Diaz, and vice president
of the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient
Railroad company, is here on business
for that company.
He says that the states Of Chihuahua
and Sinaloa have recently voted to the
road $75, 900 American money, besides
granting other concessions.
He says that the right of way will
cost nothing; that has been arranged
for with the states through which the
line will pass. The Mexican govern
ment also RENTS all import duties on
the material shipped into Mexico for
the construction of the road. The pay
of laborers will not exceed 90 cents
day.
The company has made arrangements
for the purchase of two million acres
of land at five cents an acre, with five
years to pay for it. 1t is timber and
grazing land.
Mr.. Fernandez says that the govern
ment and the different states have al
ready advanced four million dollars to
the building of the road and that flu
ture expense will be constantly re.
duced by the aid of Mexico.

WRECKED IN GOLDEN GATE.
Consul General Wildman And Fam
lily Among The Dead.
CAUSED BY A ROCK AND A FOG.

San Francisco, Feb. 25.--The Pacific
Mail steamer Rio dc Janerio ran on
hidden rock while entering the Golden
Gate in dense fog. She sank few
minutes after striking. 1t is thought
nearly 100 persons were drowned.
The most prominent passengers ON
the steamer was Housewife Wildman,
United States consul at Hong Kong,
who was accompanied by his wife and
two children. 1t is thought all were
drowned.
Captain William Ward went down
with the vessel. 1t is supposed that
there were PA people on board. Seven
ty-nine were rescued according to first
account. The vessel struck the rock at
$40 q. m. Most of the passengers were
below and many of them must have
drowned in their berths. The first
news reached the city at 1880, at about
the time that a boat load of people
from the vessel arrived at the mail
dock. Tugs were sent out at once but
no living persons were afoat when
they reached the wreck. A number
were rescued by ifs, lermen. 1t appears
that Captain Ward and his officers
were cool and active. The life boats
and RATS were lowered with calmness.
J. F. Seymour, editor of the Ameri-
can at Manila, was passenger.
There are indications that the steam
err blew up after she sunk. This is
indicated by splintered timbers below
decks.
Washington, Feb. 25.-Consul Cen
eral Wildman has not been in the
United States since the Spanish war
broke out. He was appointed from
California. His service in the east
covered all the events leading up to
and including the Spanish-A American
war. He was in communication with
Aguinaldo at the time of Admiral
Dewey's famous victory and was
accused by the Filipino leader of hav-
ing made unfulflled promises to him,
but steadily denied the statements to
this effect. Mr. Wildman was on his
way home on leave of absence. He
was native of Elmira, N. Y, but
twelve years ago he went to Idaho,
where he was the editor of paper at
Boise City. About this time Mr.. Wild
man was appointed consul at Singa-
pore and after his return located at
San Francisco, where he engaged in
work.
