WANT TROOPS REMOVED.
Cuba Asks the United States te
Exacuate Island.

Washington, Sept. 23-Cuba has no.
tilted the United States to withdraw
it's troops from the island. A formal
request to that effect has been trans
mitted to United States Minister
Squires by President Palma. This
will terminate the last vestige of
United States authority in the island.
The state department has transmitted
the matter to the war department,
holding that the problem presented is
purely a military one, involving the
competency Of the Cuban gov
eminent to take over and care for
the coast d~efenses now in American
hands. and thus make sure that the
country is not exposed, without mill
tary protection. to a possible foreign
enemy.

DUPLICATES OF UNIQUE SOCKS.
Cases Where They Turned Up Within
a Short Time.

There is perhaps nothing more
certain to turn up than a second copy
of a unique book. For over four
centuries the now famous 1893 edition
of the Malermi Bible (Venice) was
as completely lest as il it had never
existed. Within about a month OF
each other two copies were discover
ed, one by Mr.. Voynich, in Italy, and
the other by the Due de Rivoli in
Vienna. Quite recently a third edi-
ton has been unearthed by a CONT
mental bookseller, and doubtless other
examples will be found in due course.
A fine copy is worth at least 1900.
The popularity of the 1893 issue Is
that many Of the wood cuts are quite
different from those in the 1890, 1892
and 1494 editions, four of these beau
tiful illustrations are reproduced in
fac-simile in Mr.. Voynish's Second
List of Books The Athenaeum.

HEADS OFF STRIKE
HAS CLOSED DOWN UNITED
VERDE INDEFINITELY.
Forestalis Contemplated WaIk-out Of
Miners by Discharging Them
and ceasing Operations.

Butte, Spe.t 22.-Advices from
Jerome, A. r., confirm the report that
the United Verde property has been
closed indefinitely. 1t is alleged that
the suspension was not due SO much
to the fire in the mine as to the fact
that the entire force of miners had
made all preparations for a general
strike September l, and Senator Clark
simply forced the movement by dis
charging every man employed upon
the property, save only seven or eight
who are to act as guards.
Only n train a daysis being run
on the narrow-guage road to Jerome
Junction, where 10 or more in
operation a few weeks ago. The force
at the company's store in the town
has been cut to the minimum, and in
all it is possible that 1000 men have
been thrown out of employment.
Senator Clark, while in Jerome, re-
duced rentals en- much of the proper
ty in town one-half, which is consid-
cree another excellent sign that the
suspension will be for a long period.
The fire. of which SO much has been
said, has been known in the United
Verde mine for five years or more.
One Of the big drifts, with lare- slopes
on the 30O-foot level, has been bulk
headed for that time. The ore with
in has an excessive proportion of
sulphur, running as high as Sc per
cent.

SURFING DEAD KILLED IN
CHURCH PANIC.
HELD TO Be RESPONSIBLE
Man Arrested Said to Have Caused
the stampede-Denies
His Responsibility.

Birmingham, Ala, Sept. 22.-This
was a day Ct funerals in Birmingham,
the remains Of IS victims Of the panic
in Shiloh church being inferred in va
Frious cemeteries for negroes around
the city. All the negro churches
were crowded and the excitable ma
ture Of the southern negro was
wrought to a high pitch by the eulo-
CYSTIC m over the dead bodies
at the various churches.
The death list is now known to
number 105, and 100 Of these have
been identified. The police assert
that in addition at least five bodies
we're taken to private houses. This
would swell the number to ITO. In
nearly all the churches for whites,
sums were raised to assist the ne
groes who are unable to give their
dead a proper burial, and a fund ag-
gregatfng $500 has been accumulat-
ed.
Among the victims Of the disaster
was Kassougo, an African boy brought
from the Congo Free State two years
ago by Rev. S. Phillips Verver of the
Tuscaloosa. 9
j. H. Ballou, who is in Jail charged
with precipitating the stampede, says
he does not feel responsible for the
accident. He said:
Il was seated in the front row of
the rear platform Of the rostrum in
company with Major r. R.. Wright,
president of the Industrial school of
Georgia. The president of the conven-
tion was arranging seats for the del
egates, but evidently was having
some trouble. In the same row with
me were other delegates whom the
president had required to give up
their seats. He said nothing to Major
Wright or myself, and 1, of course, be-
ing in company with Major Wright,
thought that, as he retained his seat,
| would. Hicks came to us and said
we must give up those seats andA1us-
ed abusive language. We paid no at
tention to him. All of this was before
the arrival of Mr.. Washington.
"All this trouble was reported to
be caused by Hicks and myself, but
such is not the case. All the people
present came only to hear Washing
ton, and Immediately after he closed
his address they left their seats and
started for the door, net only from
the first floor, but from the gallery
as we'll. About this time Hicks again
approached Major Wright and myself
and ordered us to move, and I, as
spokesman, refused. He then caught
me by the lapel of the coat and reach
ed in his hip pocket. While we were
scufling. the stampede began. Ev-
cry one in the church was uneasy wv
ing to the fact that the chairman
had given instructions that no one
else should be admitted, as the build
ing would not be safe"
