With a fearful burst of thunder and
lightning one of the hardest electric
storms eyer known struck here last

wind was about forty-five miles an
hour, though it came in flaws as hard
as fifty. The tug j. l.. Patterson,
belonging to the Kugler Lumber Com
pany, was towing two schooners, run
by E. B. Moore, the fish dealer here,
and when the squall struck, the wind
turned the boat on her side and she
scooped water. The boat was turned
on end and the pilot house was en-
tirely torn away, carrying with it two
persons. Five were on the boat All

William ]. Womble, captain Henry

PRES. MITCHELL GOES WEST.
mead of Mine Workers to Confer
With Labor Chiefs at Chicago.


Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 2S.-President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
left for the West late this afternoon.
He will go direct to Chicago, where,
it is said. he will hold a conference
with prominent labor chiefs. Some Of
the heads of the railroad brotherhoods
may take part in the conference, al
though no one will vouch for this, it
being merely a rumor floating around
strike headquarters here. There is
no doubt, however, but that the head
of the miners union will confer with
the district officers of the United Mine
workers in the bituminous regions all
through the West.
For the past week delegations from
the soft coal regions of the West have
been in Wilkesbarre consulting with
Mr.. Mitchell regarding the present
status OF the anthracite strike and the
coming national convention of miners
at Indianapolis. In order to make it
more convenient for all concerned, Mr..
Mitchell viii visit the btuminous mine
leaders instead of the leaders coming
all the way east to visit him. President
Mitchell viii explain to the bituminous
men the exact situation of affairs in the
anthracite region and what will be
expected of the national convention.
There is no hint of any kind as to
where Mr.. Mitchell stands regarding
the declaration of a general strike by
the national convention. There We're
no disturbances reported at any of the
mines to-day and it is expected that
things will be unusually quiet at strike
headquarters now Gntil the return of
Mr.. Mitchell from the West

WIRELESS TELEPHONY A FACT
Messages Jump Around on Almost
Any Old Wires at Cape Hatteras.
Prof. Fessenden's Instruments

Norfolk, Va. June 2S.-Wireless tele-
phone communication is a fact. In
struments invented by Prof r. A.
Fessenden have been installed in homes
along the coast near Cape Hatteras
and Roanoke Island, and for a distance
OF fourteen miles the ticks from the
wireless telegraph instruments can be
heard over the telephone.
Another strange feature in connec~
ton with the experiments is the abil-
ity to hear messages being sent over
one line through instruments connect
ed with another line at some distance
from the wire over which the message
is being sent.
The experiments are being conducted
between Frisco and Buxton, N. c., and
instruments have been placed on
the houses of j. j. Davis of Buxton.
with a wire to Creeds Hill life-saving
station. 1t has no connection with the
government wire at that point, but
messages over the government wire can
be heard over the private line. A. j.
Fulcher of Frisco has a wire running
from his home to the same life-saving
station, but 1t also has no connection
with the government wire, neither is
it connected with the wire from Mr..
Davis house. The extremities of the
two wires at the station are over
twelve feet apart, nevertheless mess
ages that are sent over either of them,
or over the government wire, can cas-
lily be heard over any of the other TWO
wires.
Ticks from the wireless telegraph
instruments over fourteen miles away
are also plainly audible.

THE PANAMA LOBBY.
So Thick 1t Can BE Cut With "A Knife
said Morgan.

Washington June PA lively de-
bate was precipitated in the Senate
to-day over a resolution of Mr.. Nor
gan of Alabama authorizing the Com
mittee on Inter-Oceanic Canals to in
vestigate the status of American
stockholders of the Panama Canal
Company with a view of protecting
them in the French courts.
Mr.. Spooner of Wisconsin, Mr.. Hanna
of Ohio and Mr.. Mitchell of Oregon
antagonized the resolution, declaring
that it was a matter with which the
United States had nothing to do.
Mr.. Morgan warmly advocated the
proposition, but it finally went over to
the calendar without action.
After Mr. Morgan had explained his
resolution, Mr.. Spooner vigorously OPP
posed it's adoption, declaring that it
was without precedent, entirely mis-
chievous and obstructive of the action
of Congress.
Mr.. Morgan insisted upon his reso-
luton. He wanted to know-and would
know-whether or not the lobby that

thick that it might be cut with knife,
had been receiving, or was to receive,
a part of the $4,000, 900 to be paid for
the Panama canal property. Things
of that kind had occurred in diplomacy
since the first treaty was made. yar-
gesse, stipends and brides were paid
to-day to men who conducted great
negotiations. He desired to be as
sured that the United States had not
been scandalized in any respect.
Mr.. Hanna opposed the resolution,
saying that the people had accepted
the verdict of Congress upon the canal
and were satisfied. He resented the in
situation that lobby was here to adj
vocate the Panama route and to in
Guce men to vote against their con-
Victions and inclinations. He protested
against such an insinuation, and de-
.clared that he had never known of
such a lobby and he challenged Mr..
Morgan to produce proof of his charge.
Why Taylor Does Not Return.
Senator Deboe and Senator Black
burn of Kentucky engaged in an in
teresting but good-natured discussion
of Kentucky politics, in the course of
which the former alleged that the rea-
son why Gov. Taylor did not return to
Kentucky and stand trial as an ac-
cessory to the murder of Gov Goebel
was that the courts were corrupt, and
that the 100000 reward offered for the
apprehension of the murderer of Gov.
Goebel had been used to corrupt the
courts and bride witnesses.
This, Senator Blackburn emphatically
denied, and said he was so thoroughly
convinced of Taylor's guilt that he
would be willing to submit the case to
any judge and jury in the Union

DREIBUND TREATY SIGNED.
important Alliance Between Ger
many, Austria and Italy Renewed,
But Terms Kept Secret.


Berlin, June 2S.-The treaty provid-
ing for the prolongation of the alli-
ance between Germany, Austria-Hun-
gary and Italy, (the Dreibund) was
signed in Berlin this morning by the
imperial chancellor, Count Won Buelow;
the Austrian ambassador. L. Won
Szogyeny- Marich, and the Italian am
bassador. Count LAMA di Busca. The
alliance was renewed in it's original
form.
TJpon the request of the imperial
chancellor the text of the new Drei-
bund treaty will be kept secret for the
present, and it is not certain whether
its publication will occur later. The
announcement of the signing OF the
document did not cause surprise, the
renewal of the Dreibund having been
taken as a foregone conclusion since
Count Won Buelows conferences with
fine italian and Austrian ministers dur
ing the Easter holidays. The German
officials have never evinced the slight
est concern at the many reports ema-
nating from Paris and other diplomatic
centers representing the prospects of a
renewal of the Dreibund to be gloomy,
and they knew all along that Italy
Irritation with France was not intend
ed TO be disIoya1ty to her Teutonlc

les between the three countries, al
though emphasizing Germany's deter
nination TO keep political and econ
omic questions apart.

ed in Cuba on charges involving mall
administration of his Office to-day petit
toned Congress to order a congression-
al investigation of all his acts in Gu
ba. The petition was presented by Sen
ator Teller and referred to the Cuban
committee. 1t says
Your petitioner bases this petition
upon the ground that whenever the
government of the United States as
signs one of its citizens to public SER
vice in a foreign land and in the course
of the performance of his official duties
in that foreign service, he is accused
of high crimes and misdemeanors, IL
is the duty of the government of the
United States to see that he has a fair
and impartial trial under usual and
regular rules of judicial procedure.
He should not be subjected to trial
by arbitrary and unusual methods of
procedure, contrary alike to the laws
of that country and the fundamental
principles of justice.
He should not be sentenced to Sc
we're and unusual penalties without the
right Of appeal to the government OF
his own country for relief and pro-
lection.
Your petitioner makes the following
statement of the reasons for this APP
plication
This Points TO GEN. wood.
THE proceedings which led to his
conviction were not judicial proceed

progress If the trial and so influenced
and dominated these tribunals as to
thwart the purpose of justice and in-
fiict a great wrong upon your petit
toner.
Eek parte evidence was admitted TO
the trial, consisting of eX parte deposit
tons taken in the United States on
behalf of the prosecution, at the TAX
ing of which neither the petitioner nor
his attorneys had opportunity to be
present or to cross examine the wit
nesses, and the trial court refused to
summon witnesses in his behalf, and
that the principal witness for the state,
and practically the sole witness against
him was not sworn upon the trial.
This witness, the petition says was
subsequently pardoned.

ambassador of the United States, and
Mrs. Reid at Buckingham Palace this
afternoon in farewell audience. Her
majesty received Mr.. and Mrs. Reid
alone
While the special ambassador does
not feel at liberty to make public
what passed at the audience, 1t is
understood that the Queen received
them with great cordiality and en-
phasized the appreciation of the sym
pathy and support of the United
States in the present crisis. which
had already been expressed to Mr..
Reid by the Prince of Wales and the
foreign secretary, the Marquis of
Lansdowne. The Queen showed evil
dencc of relief. and considering the
great strain upon her, looked remark
ably well. The interview lasted some
time. and may well be considered
great compliment to both Mr..
and Mrs. Reid and the Unit

received no one but her own family
since the King became i'll.

Leading Officials of the Province
This Causes Considerable Dis
quietude at WashinstoD.
Washington, D. c., June 2S.-Power-
full influences in Canada are being ex-
erted in behalf, of Messrs. Greene and
Gaynor in their efforts to escape trial
before Judge Speer at Savannah. OFF,
Gals of this government express sur
prise at the inaction of the Canadian
authorities and the confident claims
of the friends of the two men that
they will never be surrendered are tax
en- as meaning that the much-wanted
contractors have unbounded faith in
= the influence of their counsel.
1t is stated that the minister of JUS
tice for the Dominion of Canada, who.
under the extradition laws of that
country, is vested with important min
isterial and judicial functions to per-
form in the matter, is member of
a firm of lawyers which is acting for
the prisoners in seeking to avoid ex-
tradition. This firm can fairly lay
claim to important official relations. for
apart from the minister of justice, the
prime minister of the Province of Que
bee is also a member Of the firm. And
another partner is a son of the Deputy
Attorney General for the province.
Each province of the Dominion of Can
ada has an attorney general, who Or
dinarily appears as the representative
of the crown in extradition proceed
ings in view of the treaty obligations
of the government. Those who con-
fidently claim that Greene and Gaynor
will not be eXtradited also point to
the fact that they are not only
represented by a firm, two of whose
members are ministers for the Domin-
ion and one prime minister of the
4 province of Quebec, but the Attorney
i General of that province is also a
q member of a law firm, one of whose
a members has been associated as coun-
s. sci for the defendants. 1t is further
claimed by those who believe that the
q United States will be defeated that the
failure of the Attorney General to APP
pear in the extradition proceedings in
a dicates that the weight Of official in
1luence will be thrown against the sur
81 render of the fugitive criminals.
The outcome is awaited with keen
interest here. 1t is believed by well-in
formed men that if Greene and Gaynor
81 succeed in resisting extradition, after
two courts have decided that they
8 should be surrendered, through the ex-
q traordinary influences they have in
a voked, the Canadian border will here
4 after form a safe and secure city of
4 refuge for defaulters from this cOun-
s. try.
