President Roosevelt left Groton.
Mass, for Washington Thursday af

thain started, the people at the sta

bowed his thanks from the platform.
Just before his departure President
Roosevelt, accompanied by DR.. Lam

the newspaper headquarters, to per
sonally meet the reporters and CORE.
spondents who had been in Groton
since Sunday. He was In extremely
good spirits as he shook each man by
the hand and said hearty word to
each. He said:
"I want to thank you, boys, for the
consideration which you have shown
myself and family and for all the
courtesies which have been extended
to me by the press. There has been
such a sudden change in Ted that he
has come up all Of sudden, and he
is now out Of the woods"
Continuing. the president said:
Alice will come over from Washing
ton tomorrow to take my place, to
certain extent, while Mrs. Roosevelt
will remain here perhaps ten days
more. Then. when Ted Is In condi-
ton she will take him to the white
house for awhile, but he will return

SAFES WERE FlREPROOF.
Vast Sums Are Recovered From Ruins
In Paterson, NJ. J.


In Paterson, N. j.
Money and securities said to amoxnt
to S3,000,O00 were recovered from the
two huge vaults under the ruins Of the
First National bank at Paterson, J. j.,
Monday afternoon. Books, papers,
bullion and paper money were found
uninjured. Guarded by files of SOL
diers with fixed bayonets, the treas
ure was conveyed to the Paterson
savings institution in. tW'o-horse
dray.
Buried beneath the ruins Of the city
hall were found the safes which be-
longed to the comptroller''s Office and
in these also the papers, legal docu-
ments and public records were found
unharmed. The safes Of the Passaic
Water Company, under the ruins Of
the building, which stood at Nos. 1O7
and 100 Washington street. were de-
stroyed by the fire and the only part
of their contents recovered was $500
in silver.
Conservative opinion is now inclined
to cut 100000 from the aggregate
loss of s1O,O00,0OO given out immedi-
ately after the confagration, and $S,-
100000 probably will be accepted final
" as the actual cost Of the fire. 1t
was stated Tuesday that the insur-
arce amounted to between 100000
and S5,00O,000.

BIG B0WLDER SMASKES TRAIN.
s2even Men Met Instant Death In Pc
culiar Wreck-A Score More Are
More or Less Injured.

Seven men were killed and at least
fourteena were seriously injured by a
huge bowlder, weighing fifteen tons,
crashing into the caboose Of q. wor..-
train on the Choctaw, OklaAoma and
Gulf railroad twenty miles west Of
Little Rock, Ark, at 10 O'Clock Fri
day morning. The work : train was
headed west, the engine pushing six
cars and a caboose. AS IL was passing
along the track under the high bluffs
bordering the river two miles west OF
little Maumclle, the crew saw a heavy
rock rolling with awful velocity down
the steep declivity, having been de-
tached from the hillside by the rains.
The train was going slowly, but was
almost upon the rock when it struck
the track. Engineer MAJOR reversed
his engine at once, but it was so close
upon the obstacle that the train struck
it with almost full force. The caboose
was at the head Of the train, and was
shivered into splinters. Most Of the
men who were killed and injured were
in the caboose.
There was a crew Of ffty=four men,
white and solored, and they were 60
ing to a point further up the road to
clear slight wreck. There were just
back of the caboose three cars. OF
sand, and many of the men were bu'
ried underneath the heap of sand
which was thrown forward by the ter
rife impact. Six men are known to
have been killed outright. Three were
left on the scene and three were
removed to Little Rock on the train
that was dispatched to the scene as
soon as the news could be sent to the
city. Fifteen injured were carried to
Little Rock and are now at st. Vim
cent infirmary. One of the most des-
perately injured died On the way to
the hospital from the depot.
1t is believed there are others killed
or buried under the sand at the scene
Of the wreck, as there are several
missing, and as yet are unaccounted
for. A crew Of workmen are clearing
the wreck and looking for the bodies.

Bosr Representative Is Sent Over
From The Hague.
BEARS LETTER FROM KRUGER
In Person, Dr.. Mueller VIII Hard
This Document to the President.
Beers to Begin Campaign
Here Amorg Us.

A cable dispatch from Brussels,
Belgium, says: The plan of campaign
drawn up by DR.. Mueller, the former
consul of the Orange Free State in
Holland, who is now on his way to
New York with dispatches from the
Boer delegates in Europe to President
Roosevelt, includes the formation Of
two standing committees, one more
or less political, to include the pro-
Boer senators and representatives.
and other prominent men who, 1t is
claimed, have already promised their
cooperation. The other and larger
body will be chiefly concerned In the
collection and forwarding Of money
for the Boer cause.
The Beers in Brussels allcge that
there has beer considerable difficulty
heretofore in accounting for all the
money subscribed, and that not all OF
1t has reached its destination.
DR.. Mueller will be president Of the
finance committee and will remain in
the United States so long as neces-
sary. He is entrusted with letter
from Mr.. Kruger to President Rocse-
velt, the joint production Of Dr.
Leyds and the other Boer delegates,
but which Mr.. Kruger approved and
signed.
DR.. Mueller is charged to personally
hand this letter to President Roose'
Velt, whose permission to publish it
will be asked.
After a discussion, in which the
opinion of the Boer delegates was
considerably divided, Mr.. Kruger and
DR.. Leyds convinced the others that
it was not wise, in view Of the reply
of the British minister, Lord Lans-
downe, to the note Of the Netherlands
on the subject Of peace In South Al
rica, to make overtures to Great Brio
ain to open telegraphic communica-
tion with the Boer leaders in the field.

POSSE AND BANDITS
In Desperate Fray Resulting Ia
Six Dead and Six Wounded.
BURNED OUT OF BARRICADE
Desperate Gang Of Mountaineers Defy
Arrest and Battle to a Finish
Near M;ddlesboro,
Kentucky.

Six men are dead and as many more
are dying as the result Of battle be-
tween officers from Middlesboro and
mountaincers, says a special to the
Knoxville (Tenn) Journal and Tri'
bune from it's Middlcsboro, KY, CORE.

The battle, which was one Of the
most desperate affairs of its kind in
the history of mountain warfare, oc-
Cured between aid o'clock Wed
resday afternoon at Lee Turner's
Quarter House" saloon, 3 IL miles
from Middiesboro.
Last month Turner had some mules
and other goods levied on in payment
FOR debt, and few nights ago, it is
alleged, he, with others, went to Vir-
ginia, where the property had been ta-
ken, secured what was formerly his,
and returned to the Quarter House.
Wednesday Deputy Sheriff William
Thompson summoned posse OF ten
Or fifteen men for the purpose Of ar
resting Turner at his Quarter House.
saloon. The Louisville and Nashville
refused to convey the officers to the
saloon, and they walked through the
mountains.
Turner had heard that an attempt
would be made to arrest him, and he
aid his men, fifteen in number, gave
the officers a warm reception.
The saloon is we'll suited for an at
tack like this. 1t is built OF huge logs
and is surrounded by 3O-fcot fence.
n which loop holes are cut, so that
tie inmates can shoot outsiders. Tur-
rer's surrender was demanded.
His reply was round Of shot. Char
lev C. Cecil, CT Middlesboro, was rid
ing in plain view of the Turner gang.
Some one raised a window of the
log dive and shot Cecil, who fell dead.
Instantly the man at the window
fell back, pierced by a half dozen
bullets.
Then the firing began in earnest,
the officers scattering and hiding be-
hind trees and rocks, and pouring a
CALLING fire into the mountain for
tress.
In the fight John Doyle, a former
railroad man, was badly wounded, per
haps fatally, and Simon Bean, another
sx-~ailrosder, was shot in tho hand.
The town men gathered closer
around Turner's place, undauntcd at
tie shots which whizzed around them.
As soon as Cecil was killed his COM
p5nions determined to burn Turner's
rendezvous, and in the midst Of the
battle a fellow applied torch to an
exposed side Of the building.
A few minutes later the building was
in flames. Seceral Of the mountain
eers came to the window and were
Immediately shot down.
The posse surrounded the barricade,
determined to let none escape. Lee
Turner and several Of his friends. how
ever, in some manner escaped, and is
now at Mingo mines, eight miles from
Middlesboro. Several Of his men per-
ished in the flames.

KAISER'S YACHT HAS ARRIVED.
New Workers Are Givon a Surprise In
Unexpected Arrival Of the
Hohenzoliern. !

The imperial German yacht. Hohen'
zollern, sent to New York for the use
of Prince Henry OF Prussia in his
forthcoming visit, arrived Wednesday
from Kiel. She was not expected, for
she came by the southern circle, and
it was calculated that the run would
take at least one more day than it d.a.
It had also been thought that she
would touch at Bermuda and that
place had reported her two days over.
due. The weather encountered was
uIfavorable for call at Bermuda, and
at sea Admiral Count Won Baud1ssin
abandoned the partly formed plan and
shaped his course for New York.
She hove in sight of Sandy Hook a
few minutes before the noon hour, and
an hour later was in quarantine. She.
got the courtesy of the port from fed
eral officials and proceeded on through
the Narrows and up into North river
without delay. Passing craft gave
her a noisy welcome with their whis-.
ties, and the man at her jack staf was
kept busy dipping her big naval tag
and its field of white, black Prussian
eagle and black cross. She was paint

The Hohenzollern doeked at the
piers of the North German Lloyd

Admiral Won Baudissin was formal
" welcomed to New York by a civic
committee, representative Of Mayor

The officers Of the IIohenzollern said
it would be impossible for them to.

POWERS ARE SILL GROWING
In REGARD to Their Attitude Toward
Your Uncle Sam Before the
Hispaao-American War.

A Washington special says: IN
view of the statements and ccntradic-
tions, more or less Of an official nature,
coming from the principal European
capitals respecting the attitude of the
powers individually toward the United
States just preceding the Spanish
American war, officials at the capital
feel a natural reluctance to being
drawn into the controversy, and 1t IS
with difficulty that official statements
may be had on this subject.
One fact remains, namely, that the
European ambassadors and ministers
IN Washington called upon President
Mckinley April 7, 1898, in the effort
to prevent war.
The matter now in controversy is
what happened after that call and the
question at issue is as presented IN
the latest phase of the European dis
patches, did Lord PauncefCte under
take to secure the support Of the other
European powers in an attempt to for
,ia!e restraint upon the United
States?
Lie Given to Germany.
A London dispatch says: The un-
der secretary for the foreign office,
Lord Cranborne, replying in the house
Of commons Tuesday to a question Oh
Henry Norman, liberal, who asked
whether the governments attention
had been called to the statement IN
the German press, and alleged to have
received official confirmation at Ber-
lin. to the effect that Great Britain,
April Il, 1898, through her ambassa-
dor at Washington, Lord Pauncefote,
proposed a fresh note, in which the
bowers should declare that Europe did
not regard the armed intervention OF
the United States in Cuba as JGstlAa-
bic, and that in consequence of Ger
nanys refusal to accept this proposal,
the step was abandoned, said:
NO sir. Her late majesty's govern
ment never proposed through her NAL
esty's ambassador or otherwise any
declaration adverse to the action OF
the United States in Cuba. On the
contrary, her late majesty's govern
ment declined to assent to any such
proposal"
Lord Cranborne's answer to Mr.. Nor
man was received with rounds of ap-
plause.
Mr.. Norman later said to reprtsen-
tative of the Associated Press:
81 am perfectly satisfied, and OF
course implicitly believe that state
ment OF the British minister's
John Redmond, Irish leader, COM
merted on Lord Cranborne's state
ment as follows:
THAT the feeling which existed in
America that England did so much for
the United States at the time of the
war Is all humbug. To my personal
knowledge the majority Of tie mem
bers of the house Of commons were
strongly anti-American in those days.

to prove her assertions"
