LIFE SAVING SERVICE.
Number of Stations at End Of the
Fiscal Year Was 272.
The Most Distressing Calamity of the
Year Was the Drowning of Seven
Members Off the Coast
of Cape Cod.

Washington, Nov. 20.-The superin-
tendent of the life saving service made
public his annual report Wednesday.
The number of stations embraced in
the establishment at the end of the
fiscal year was 272, of which 1875 are
located on the gulf and Atlantic coasts,
60 on the coasts Of the great lakes,
one at the falls of the Ohio river, Lou
isville, KY, and 16 on the Pacific
coast.
The life saving crews saved and as
sisted in saving 434 imperiled vessels
valued, with their cargoes, at $3,567,-
220. OF this number 334, valued with
their cargoes at $977 800, were saved
without assistance. In the remaining
instances the life saving crews coop
Grated with wrecking vessels, tugs
and other agencies in saving property
estimated at $2,494,665 out of a total
of s2,5S9, 720 imperiled. The crews al
so afforded assistance of greater OF
less Importance to 661 other vessels,
exclusive of 237 Instances in which
vessels running into danger were
warned off by the station patrolmen.
Regarding the loss of seven mem
bers of the MonOmOy crew the report
says:
THE most distressing calamity of
the year was the drowning of seven
members, including the keeper Of the
crew of the Monomoy station, which
occurred on March II, 1902, off the
coast of Cape Cod, only one man in
the boat having escaped with his life.
The MonOmoy crew responded to a sig
nal of distress displayed on board the
coal barge Wadens, stranded on Shov-
elful shoal, and after safely taking in
to their boat the five men from the
barge were engaged in the difficult Op-
Grafton of turning the boat and getting
away when a sea broke over them, and
the rescued men (who had been prop
erly placed and directed to keep still)
were seized with panic, instantly ris-
ing up, cIinging to the necks of the
surfmen, and so interfering with the
oarsmen that they lost control of the

A movement to raise by popular sub
scription a fund for the relief of the
widows and children left dependent

of more than $4,000. Many of the
maritime organizations gave further
expression to the general sentiment of
the country through petitions and me-
MORALS to congress urging the pas
sage of a pension act to provide for
similar cases in the future. A bin

upon by the committee on interstate

FLEEING REFUGEES.
They Arrive at San Francisco
From Devastated Guatemala.
Many Plantations Are Under Ashes
From the Volcano and Absolute
Ruin Is the Lot of a Num- :
Der of Planters.

San Francisco, Nov. 20.-The first
lands of Guatemala arrived Wednes-
day on the Pacific mail steamer City
of Para. They came from the districts
from the inland sea and travelled over
country laid waste by sand, ashes
and pumice before reaching a railway
station. From the latter places they
made the journey by rail to Chamepri-
co and there took the steamer to San
Francisco. They sailed on November
Z when the volcano was still smoking
and rumbling of thunder and flashes
of lightning gave evidence of more
eruptions to come. These people fed
from their plantations in fear for their
lives. They escaped to the seaside
wore, their transportation being so
difficult as to preclude baggage. The
refugees confirm stories of loss of life.
They say that the victims for the most
part are Indians. They had not heard
Of any white persons being lost. Thou
sands of Indians were asphyxiated or
buried in the sand. Miles of planta-
tions are under ashes, and absolute
ruin is the lot of many planters whose
all was invested in the Fincas.
Bands of robbers are now swarming
the desolated sections, robbing and
numbering refugees on the road and
looting the abandoned and desolate
plantations.
Those left behind on the plantations,
it is said, are in danger of death from
starvation, for the food supply has
been cut off and there is no way to
send in supplies to the afflicted dis
tricts.
Word has been received from Maza-
tenango, on the outskirts of the ruined
territory, stating that there Friday,
October "a, at about 5 o'clock in the
evening. Santa Maria opened crater
on the west side near it's base, and not
far from Nelvetta, and all that night
it belched forth volumes of ashes and
lava. On Saturday morning it was
noted that several more craters in the
neighborhood of the mountain had
opened up and they were all spouting
volcanic debris over the plantations
of the district. These fresh craters
were further to the west and for over
"a hours they were in constant erup-
ton. The earth was in continual COM
motion, shaking down buildings and
causing much destruction from the
quaking. All the territory about Pal
mer, San Felipe, Pueblo, Nuevo and
Retalquien was buried under ashes.
Many of the plantations were buried
under from five to seven feet of debris
and all hope of ever retaining them
had been given up. The whole neigh
borhoOd for miles was a burning will
derness.

THEBEARHUN7 ENDED
President Roosevelt Failed to Get
a Shot at Bruin.
The Bear Killed Monday and Deer
Dispatched BY Others Tuesday
Will Be Taken to Washington
on the Special Train.

Smedes, Miss, Nov. 19.-President
ROosevelt's bear hunt in Mississippi
is ended and he has not had even &
shot at a bear. The last day of the
chase was simply a repetition of the
three preceding days so far as his lack
was concerned. Try as the hunters
would they could not get a bear with
in range of the presidents rifle.
The dogs got fresh trail early Tues
day morning and the president and
Holt Collier followed it half dozen
miles to the Big Sunfiower river. The
bear crossed a mile below the ford
they went to- and, believing he was
making for the canebrakes on the
other side they endeavOred to head it
OFF. When they got into the brake,
however, they we're Disguised to find
that the bear had doubled on his track
and crossed the river still further
down. 1t was then l o'clock and as
arrangements had been made to break
camp at 80 the president reluctantly
was compelled to abandon further pur-
suit of the elusive quarry.
While the president was out after
bear, Maj Helm, DR.. Lung and Secre-
tary Cortelyou had a more successful
deer drive on this side of the Great
SunfOwer river. They jumped up q
buck and a doe. Maj. Helm killed the
latter from his horse at about forty
yards.
Although the president has failed to
kill bear on this expedition, he has
enjoyed his outing and speaks in high
praise of the hospitality that has been
accorded him. He philosophically at
tributed his i'll fortune to the tradi-
time he goes after bear he will ar
range to stay long enough for the
luck to change.
The breaking up of the camp Tues
day was an interesting proceeding.
The deer killed Tuesday and the bear
killed Monday were loaded. and will
be taken to Washington on the special
train.
When all was in readiness the presi-
dent and the members of the party
mounted their horses and rode into
Smedes, leaving the wagons to follow.
The president is hard rider and the
pace was rapid in spite of the bad
trails.
Mr.. Fish Tuesday night gave a din
ner in his private car to the president
and members OF his party. At $50 the
special train started for Memphis, hav-
ing added the record Of a presidential
bear hunt to the fame of Smedes,
which first became known to the out
side world through the story that here
the experiment of teaching monkeys
to pick cotton was to be tried.
Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 20-At mid.
night the presidential party left for
Washington over the Southern rail
road. Col. L. S. Brown, general agent
of the Southern, was in charge of the
train. No stops will be made en- route
The train will reach Washington at
O'Clock Friday morning.

TAKING TESTIMONY.
Coal Strike Commission Setting as a
Court at Scranton.

Scranton, Pa, Nov. 18.-In the pres
ence of as many persons as could be
jammed into the superior court room
Monday, Wayne MacVeagh, for the
Erie company, and John Mitchell, for
the miners, continued their brilliant
battle of cross examination before the
anthracite coal commission. The two
men, the one in his thirties and the
other in his seventies, were followed
with intense interest by both the COM
missioners and the crowd throughout
the day, and the contest will be resum-
ed Tuesday morning.
The fourth demand of the union,
which calls for yearly trade agree
ment, and which means a straight out
recognition of the union, was the bone
Of contention, and although four hours
were taken up in a discussion of the
question, not much material progress
was made Wayne MacVeagh, skilled
in the art of cross examination, at
tempted to show the utter irresponsi-
bility of the union and it's unfitness to
make contracts which it could not live
up to. His principal argument was the
alleged boycott, and he often pressed
the miners president for an answer.
The latter, however, slowly and DELHI
erately gave some reply, but he did not
always satisfy the inquisitOr. Mr..
MacVeRgh, in the presence of the as
semblage, expressed his admiration of
thn nh Of hn q
occasion, when Mr.. Mitchell parried
a question regarding the boycotting of
a coal and iron policeman by hotel
keeper, the distinguished attorney
threw up his hands, laughed and said.
''Mr. Mitchell, you are the best wit
ness for yourself that ever con-
frOnted"
Mr.. MacVeagh weighed heavily on
what he said was reign of terror IN
the anthracite region during the peri
cd of the strike. He read list of IA
names Of men who were killed during
that time and also submitted in evil
dence about rs printed pages of acts
Of alleged violence, boycott and intim-
idation and with the assistance of
stacks of other documents, maintained
that it would be utterly impracticable
for the coal companies he represented
to enter into agreements with an or
ganization that could not control its
own men.
Scranton, Pa, Nov 20.-After being
on the stand for four and a half days,
President Mitchell, of the Miners
union, completed his testimony at
noon Wednesday before the anthra-
cite strike commission. During his
ordeal he was examined by his own
attorney and those of the Erie Co., the
Delaware & Hudson, the Delaware,
Lackawanna G Western, the Lehigh
Valley, and the Philadelphia & Read
ing Coal & Iron Co.'S, and also by the
attorneys of the independent oper-
ators
He was followed on the witness
stand by Rev. Peter Roberts, Mahanoy
City Congregational minister, who
has studied the anthracite coal in
dustry and has written a book on tho
subject. He was still on the stand
when the commission adjourned for
the day
One of the most important things
brought out during the cross-exam-
ination of President Mitchell We'd
nesday was his emphatic declaration
that the miners were opposed to sep
arating the bituminous miners from
the anthracite workers, thus creating
two organizations.
