One man was killed and twelve persons
injured in a rear-end collision of passen-
ger trains on the Pennsylvania Railroad
near Menlo Park, N. J. The western
express, known as No. 6, east bound,
heavy train made up of four Pullman,
three coaches and a postal and baggage
car, was run into by a local passenger
train from Philadelphia 1t is understood
that the dead man was either a baggage
man or postal clerk, as both the baggage
and postal cars were badly wrecked

surrounding towns and as quickly as pos
sible physicians who responded dressed
the wounds of the injured, who were

He Is Angry About Charges In Connec-
ton with Difficulties in North.
Angered, as he said, by the reports OF
accusations of wrong doing which had
reached his ears, and ready and willing to
face all charges of alleged bad Judgment
during his polar expedition, Evelyn b.
Baldwin, Arctic explorer, arrived at New
York on the steamship Germanic Of the
White Star Line. Mr.. Baldwin, talking
about the alleged controversies between
him and Captain Johannsen of the Amer
lea, made the following statement:
"There is not word of truth in the re-
port of our not having sufficient sup
plies. Captain Johannsen wanted to be
the whole thing. That's all. The row
first started between the captain-or, to
give him his proper title, sailing master
and the ice pilot. The sailing master
objected to the ice pilots holding abso-
lutte sway over the movements of the ship
at any time, and that is how the row be-
gan. I, of course, took the side OF the
pilot, and saw that he was kept in com
mand while we were in the ice. This
sailing master was not the Johannsen
who was in charge of the Nansen eXpe-
LitiOn."

Mexican Government Has Decreed Com
fiscation of Their Tract.
The Yaqui Indians refuse to accept the
decree of the military governor OF So
nora, Mexico, which declares their lands
confscated by the State and open to
settlement. These lands are valuable for
agricultural purposes and comprise
large tract lying along the Yaqui river,
in the sub-tropical region. They have
been held and occupied by the Yaquis tor
centuries, even prior to the Spanish con-
quest, and the unremitting hostility of
the Indians to the government has been
due to the fear that their lands were to
be taken from them. The government
hopes that by depriving them of the lands
they will be compelled to vacate the
country, and that the troublesome tribe
will be thereby broken up and scattered.
The Indians are still in arms and will not
respect the government decree. Although
they have suffered heavy losses in battle
in the past few years, they still have
well-equipped army of not less than LOCO
braves. This army is divided into many
small detachments that harass the gov
eminent troops whenever they are found
and devastate the outlying districts, kill
ing, burning and pillaging.

RECEIVER FOR THE MINES.
Big Coal Railroads Must Fight De.
termined Action.

termined Action.
Several Boston men, seeking public re-
lief in the courts from the coal shortage
and high prices, have filed in the State
Supreme Court a bill in equity asking
for receiver for coal producing railroads
and companies operating in Pennsylva-
MIA.
The petitioners ask that a receiver be
appointed for the benefit of all concerned
upon such terms and in such manner, and
with such agents and servants, and with
such rates of wages and other conditions
of employment, and at such prices for
goods produced and sold as the court
shall from time to time adjudge proper.
The suit is in line with the contentious
of Attorney Heman w. Chaplin and is to
make test of his theory which is based
on the utterance of Chief Justice Waite
of the United States Supreme Court in
delivering an opinion of that court on the
constitutionality of certain laws made
by the Legislature of the State of Hi
nois for the purpose of regulating the
methods and determining the compensa-
ton to be received for the handling and
storage of grain by the elevator com
panies in the city of Chicago.
On that occasion Chief Justice Waite
said:
Property becomes clothed with pub
lie interest when used in a manner to
make it of public consequence and affect
the community at large. When, therefore,
one devotes his property to use in which
the public has an interest he, i'll effect,
grants to the public an interest in that
use and he must submit to be controlled
by the public for the common good to
the extent of the interest he has thus
created"

Porto Rican Laborers Complain OF
Cruel Treatment.
The San Juan, Porto Rico, News has
received a communication from Hllo,
Hawaii, signed by 500 Porto Ricans who
emigrated in 1901 to work on sugar plan
tations, begging for relief. They say
they are subjected to great cruelties, do
not get sufficient food, are whipped by
overseers, and live like beasts. When
sick they are not sent to the hospital I'M
less they pay for treatment. If they do
not have the money for the hospital ex-
penses they must go to prison for treat
mcnt, and they are kept prisoners fer
three months, being registered as having
committed petit larceny. The signers add
that complaints are useless, as the peo-
pie and the authorities are Indifferent to
their sufferings. Mr.. Detegau, the Porto
Rican commissioner at Washington, will
ask the American government to send a
commission to Hawaii to investigate the
condition of the Porto Ricans there.

TROOPS ORDERED OUT
LVANiA'S ENTIRE Ma
TIONAL GUARD CALLED.
Operators Given Full Protection by
Governor Stone-So1diers Will Aid
All Men Who Wish to Work in the
Anthracite Fields.

Gov. Stone of Pennsylvania Monday
night ordered the entire National Guard
of the State into the anthracite coal
fields. Ten thousand armed men will
attempt to open the mines that have been
idle during the last twenty weeks.
While the council of war that decided
upon this radical action was being held
John Mitchell, president of the United
Mine Workers, was holding a secret con-
ference with Frank p. Sargent, who had
been sent by President Roosevelt to dis
cuss new plans for settling the strike.
The action of Gov. Stone is believed to
have been taken without consulting Pres
ident Roosevelt's wishes and, according
to Harrisburg dispatch, seems likely
to thwart the Presidents latest move in
the interests of peace.
Settlement Of the great battle between
the coal operators and their employees
seems as far off as ever.
President Mitchell Monday night is
sued a call for district meetings to be
held to pass resolutions expressing the
sentiments of the miners as to continuing
the strike, in which ne declares he is con-
fident of final victory.
Recalls Homestead Troubles.
This is the first time since the Home
stead riots in 1892 that the entire divis-
ion of the guard has been ordered out for
strike duty. At this time, however, no
unusual disorder has been reported and
the move is looked upon more as one of
policy than of necessity. The cost to the
State of this tour Of duty will probably
exceed $1,O0O,OO0.
During the riots about Pittsburg in
1877 during President Hayes admins
tration the guard was called out. Fifteen
years later when the iron workers about
Homestead began rioting two brigades,
the Second from the western part of the
State and the Third from the central
part, were on active duty about the great
iron works, while the First from Phila-
delphia and it's vicinity was called out
and encamped at Mount Gretna, where
they awaited orders; but the strike was
settled and the First never reached the
strike field. The entire strength of the
National Guard Of Pennsylvania is about
10000 men and officers. The troops al
ready in the field consist of ffty-two COM
panies of infantry and three troops Of
cavalry. The re-enforcements ordered
out aggregate ninety eight companies of
infantry, one troop of cavalry and three
batteries

TEACHERS ARE IN DEMAND.
Schools in Minnesota Unable to Find
Suitable Instructors.

Suitable Instructors.
There is a famine of school teachers
throughout Minnesota. Requests from
country and village schools have been
coming to Superintendent Smith and to
County Superintendent Thomas Mont
gomery at st. Paul asking that teachers
be sent from there to fill vacancies. The
seekers after help get little satisfaction,
however, for the city itself is in the same
position. The eligible list of teachers is
exhausted and vacancies are filled with
substitutes until regular applicants can
be secured. The present condition is
most unusual. 1t arises from the stand
ard of qualification being SO high in the
State, which fact is said to have dis
couraged many teachers and caused them
to seek employment elsewhere.
