WORK OF 7SNOWSLIDE
FOURTEEN ARE: DEAD AND. AS
y MANY INJURED NEAR TEL, .#
=. LURIDE, COLO.

At Least Four Distinct AvaIanches
Occur, Each One Claiming TWO or
More Victims-Bodies Of Many Of
Those Known to Have Perished
Still Remain Under the Tons Of
Snow, Rocks and Timbers. r
= Telluride, Colo, March 1.-Fourteen
lead, as many injured and score or
more missing is the result, so far as
known, of series of snowslides which
occurred in the immediate vicinity of
the Liberty Bell mine, on Smuggler
mountain, three and a half miles
north of Telluride. The roads be-
tween here and the Liberty Bell are
almost impossible and details of the
accidents are hard to obtain.
It seems that no less than four dis
tinct slides occurred, each one. claim
ing two or more victims. Ses: I'll bod
les have been recovered, but quite a
number of the known dead are still
buried under the tons of snow, rocks
and timbers by which they were car
ried down. :,
It seems that two slides occurred
practically in the same place, the Sec
pnd burying those who were trying to
rescue the victims of the first. The
first slide occurred at 1880 a. NJ. while
the men of the day shift were prepar.
ing for their days work. About 200
men are employed in the mines and
mills of the Liberty Bell company and
less than half these were at work at
the time of the accident. The others
were in the clearinghouse or in the
clubhouse near by. Both these build
ings were carried down the mountain
side a distance OF 1000 feet and
crushed to kindling wood by tons of
snow.
It was 10 o'clock before news of the
disaster reached Telluride. At once
number of men started for the scene.
Meantime the surviving employees of
the Liberty Bell began the work OF
rescuing the victims of the slide. Sew
eral were taken out alive and a dozen
or more bodies were removed from the
snow, which lay piled 25 feet deep in
the bottom of the canyon. A little
after noon a second slide, starting a
short distance above the first and
practically following it's track, swept
down the mountain side, burying many
OF the rescuerS.
Superintendent Chase of the Lib
erty Bell mine finally ordered the work
of rescue suspended, declaring that it
was useless to endanger life further
while slides were running. Several
parties started at once for Telluride.
Two of these parties were -overtaken
by slides. In one three men were
killed and in the other two lost their
lives. None of these bodies had been
recovered at last accounts.
The Liberty Bell is located about
three and a half miles from Tel
luride and has en- altitude of about r.,
900 feet at the mouth of the tunnel
The buildings of the mine occupy q
bench on the mountain side and were
erected in location that was sup
posed to be protected from snowslides
by a ridge, which it was thought
would divert the course of any ava
lanche that might be started. The
vast accumulation of snow within the
past two weeks, however, gave the
slide such a volume that nothing
could stay it's progress until it reached
| the bottom of the canyon.

A SMALL RACE WAR.
Three Negroes Killed and One
White Man Shot

Turelo Miss, Aug 2l,--A telegram
was received here early today bv sher.
ln Long from Deputy Sheriff sam
Young at Shannon asking that the sher-
nj come Immediately TO that place. A
report was current here that three ne
groes had been killed and that James
Randolph one Of the best known clu-
zens Of the county who has assisted in
the arrest OF other negroes, had been
shot This report caused much excite.
ment and fears We're entertained that
further trouble might follow. Later in
the day Il was ascertamed that Mr.
Randolph had been shot seriously.
The trouble grew out OF the stealng
of some corn out Of the field Of the
Messrs Eubanks four miles west OF
shannon. by a negro named Davenport
who was caught IN the act and made
TO pour the corn out Of his sack. The
following night Messrs. Euhanks went
to the field TO look out for thieves. and
on returning We're fired on by about
40 negroes, who were lined along
side the road None Of the shots took
effect.

SEATTLE II SELECTED.

tonight selected as the city IN which
wiz he held the next session OF the
Transmssissipp congress In 1903. New
Orleans was the only other candidate
for the honor OF entertaining the con-

The feature Of todays session was
the animated discussion Of the resOlu
ton introduced yesterday by William

ing that the address OF r. b. Thurber
OF New York which was Mr., Ensts'
resolution declared a specious plea In
behalf Of the so-called heef trust be
eliminated from the records OF the con-
gress Mr.. Eustis argued that the
printed proceedings Of the congress
should no. be made the vehicle for dis
semlnating literature Of this class,
which. he asserted. did not represent
the views OF the majority Of the dele
gates A number OF other delegates
warmly supported Mr.. Eustis. while
others as warmly opposed him. Those
opposing took the ground that Mr.
Thurber having been Invited to address
the congress. was entitled, as a matter
of courtesy, TO have his remarks EN-.
bodied In the printed proceedings At
ter much discussion, which al times be-
came rather personal, Mr.. Eust's
withdrew his resolution declaring It's
purpose accomplished, as the discussion
upon SIS merits would be embodied In
the minutes Of the congress, and IN this
way the public would be able to sec
that great portion Of It's members did
not favor the so-called trusts.

Ing squadron, commanded b. Bear-Ad-
miral Higginson. The coming Of an
other day WAS recorded, but the antlci-
gated meeting between the hostile fleets
had not come to pass.
After day which had been on the
whole devoid OF any sensa tons, the
night thick and cloudy as it was, with
lhe moon obscured, developed so many
confusing situations ana so many eX-
iraOrdlnary reports that the Higginson

Somehow the feeling grew that It
would not be such a difficult attain

Perhaps the greatest danger which
came to Admiral higglnson was that

In search Of the enemy, reported on ap-
parently reliable authority to have
been sighted at either this point or that
point along the coast. Such reports
were IN tact made,
The reason that the admiral stead
Easily refused to leave his anchorage in
the harbor here was that he dared not
leave Rockport exposed to the enemy,
which, taking advantage of needless
passage OF the defending battleships 20
another port, might easily creep in and
drop anchor in the very heart of the
operations Of the blue squadron.
Ii was these considerations that
forced Admiral Higslnson TO the con-
c,usi0n that on none but the surest au-
thoHty would h. leave the Rcckport
station TO join other members Of his
squadron In the work of putting the
enemy out of action.
The complications which developed
