FAIRS BODIES HELD.
Delay In Removal of Remains of Un'
fortunate Auton,obiists.


Paris. Aug. 2$.--There is evidently
some mystery connected with the fact
that the bodies of MIR. and Mrs. Fair
have not been shipped from PARIS. II
was originally arranged that the bodies
should be withdrawn from the church
OF the Madeleine at o'clock yesterday
afternoon. At that hour two under
takers. vans We're waiting ~ the door
OF the vault to receive the collins when
orders came sending them away until
,halt past O'Clock last night AT this
hour the vans We're again on time but
the removal of the bodies WAS again
countermarded. and ii is believed their
removal has been postponed until an
indefinite date.
In the meanwhile lawyers represent
ing the families OF MIR. and Mrs. Fair
We're closeted at the American
consulate here al last evening with
consul General John *. Gowdy. who 1t
is understood. cabled Washington ear
lier in the day for Instructions in the
matter. Ii is impossible definitely to as
certain the object of thi.s consultation
But it is reported that the lawyers rep
reseating one party desire that Il post
mortei examination be held before the
bodies leave France. Mr.. Gowcy has
received no reply to his cablesram adj
dressed to Washington.
Mr. ELLIS. manager of the Hotel Ritz,
wherc the Fairs had apartments at the
time OF their deaths had charge of the
shipping ARRANGEMENTS. When ques-
toned YESTERDAY he WAS Very retieent.
He said the shipment OF the bodies had
been postponed because detinite in
struetions for forwarding them had not
hoeil received from the family OF Mr..
Fair. He professed 20 know of.no other
reason Why tile should not be moved.

BOILER EXPLODED.
Four Men Killed, Forty Injured Building
and Contents Wrecked.

Lebanon, Pa, Nov. 15. - The ex-
plosion of a large boiler, without
warning, in Scrap Puddle furnace No.
8, at the west works OF the American
iron and steel company's plant today
caused the death Of four workmen, and
about 40 others Nere more or less seri-
ously injured. The physicians at the
hospital express the opinion that sever
al OF the injured will die.
In an instant after the explosion the
entire place was black with debris.
The wreck of the nine immediate pud.
ding furnaces was complete. Ply 81.
clans were called from every quarter ol
the city, and hospital ambulances and
other vehicles were hurried into service.
The Offices of the works were at once
converted into hospital, and a corps
of nurses from the Good Samaritan
hospital were brought to the scene,
Into this temporary hospital the
MANNED and scalded were carried and
given attention. Some have their eyes
burned out, others their hands blown
OF. 1t is feared the list of dead will
be materially increased when the ruins
of the nine wrecked puddle furnaces
are explored.
The hoilei, which was 200-horst
power, broke squarely in half. The
roof collapsed from the shock, and the
flames from the puddle furnaces under
the wrecked boiler set fire to the debris
The fire force of the company, however
had the flames extinguished in 15 min

ANOTHER pHLEE DISASTER.
Little Doubt that Thousands Were Killed
BY q voleano In duntemala.

San Francisco, Nov. Is. - That
thousands Of lives have been lost as
result Of the outbreak Of the Guate-
malan volcano Santa Maria is the be-
lief Of coffee merchants Of this city,
based on the definite news Of q terrific
explosion, brought last eyening by the
steamer Newport. The steamer got the
news OF the disaster at various points
along the coast, and while exact inlor-
nation is lacking, all Indications are
that the catastrophe ID Of the most ter.
rible nature.
While the Newport was at Champer-
leo, letter was received from the
factor OF that district, German named
Kaufman, announcing that the vol
canic peak OF Santa Maria, 40 miles
inland from that port, Was In eruption,
and that all the coffee districts on the
eastern slope OF the range, in the inn
mediate neighborhood Of the mountain,
had been utterly destroyed, and that
thousands OF lives had, in all proba-
bility, been lost. The letter continued:
"The towns OF Palmar, San felipe,
Colombia and Coatepee are all ruined.
Ashes are seven feet deep in the fincas
and towns. Mud, stones and lava have
fallen all over the country. Houses
have been crushed by the weight Of the
volcanic matter that has fallen upon
them. RatalhuIeu, Mazatenango and
Quezaltenango have not suffered SO
much, but this calamity is only begin
ming. We have mud and ashes in
Retalhuleu. There is great loss OF life.
Cattle end horses are dead by the
thousands, famine and pest are ap
preaching. God help u.s."
Late in the afternoon Of October 25
the people Of Santa Maria telegraphed
to the president Of Guatemala, saying
that they were cropping in total darkness
that had rushed upon them at noon.
Ashes were falling thick. They asked
the president what was happening.
This dispatch was sent, apparently,
just before the eruption, and not word
has been sent since. The wires OF che
telegraph have been destroyed, and the
fate OF those who asked that question
OF the president Of Guatemala is mys.
terry profound and ominous. 1t is
Thought in Champerico that there are
no survivors in the town OF Santa
Maria, nor yet in any Of the towns
that lie upon the eastern slope of that
mountain Of belching mud and lava and
smothering gases. 1t may be second
Pelee.
The area in which these towns are
situated covers 80 miles in half circle,
and it is estimated that the aggregate
population is $4,000. The town Of
Santa Maria contains 10000 inhab-
itants and the other villages are said
to average 5000.

Republicans Win Sweeping Victory All

Honolulu, Nov. z, via San Francisco,
Nov. A. The elections yesterday re-
suited in a victory for the Republican
ticket. Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalani-

houses, in spite of five home rule sem
ators holding over from the last legis-
lature, to three Republicans.
The result of the election, tits thouht
by Republicans, will be the end of the
home rule party. A division OF the

THE MINERS SIDE
MITCHELL GIVES EVIDENCE TO THE
ARBITRATION BOARD.
Operators Attorney Shows That lie WIN
Attempt TO Prove BY MiteheIrs Own
Testimony That Organization IL ire
sponsIbIe- Non-UnIOn Miners May Be
Given Hearing.

Scranton, Pa, Nov. l5.--The Anth-
racite Coal Strike commission appoint
ed by President Roosevelt to arbitrate
the differences existing between the
mineworkers Of the hard coal fields OF
Pennsylvania and their employers yes-
terday began the hearing Of testimony
BY which 1t will determine whather the
workmen are receiving fair and Just
wages for their labor, and whether their
condition should not be improved.
The star witness for the miners, John
Mitchell, president OF the Minework-
ers' Association, took the stand in the
forenoon, and when the commission
adjourned at O'Clock in the afternoon
he was still under fire Of cross-examIn-
alton by David w. Wilcox, general
counsel for the Delaware & Hudson
company. It was a trying day for the
miners leader, but he seemed to stand
the test we'll. The heaviest fire OF
cross questions was aimed at him late
in the afternoon session, and when the
hour Of adjournment was reached Mr..
Wilcox was still propounding questions
and testing Mr.. MitcheIl's memory.
The opening Of the session was a
notable day in the annals Of the law in
the upper anthracite region. The
commissions sessions are being held in
the beautiful room OF the PennsyI-
vania superior court. which is now
sitting in Philadelphia. Ranged
around three tables in front of the seven
commissioners, who occupied the
judges bench, were no less than 80
lawyers, "a of whom we're looking after
the interests Of the mineowners.
During the day Mr.. Wilcox asked
Mr.. Mitchell many questions as to the
policies OF the union. the method OF
calling strikes, the ability Of the union
to maintain discipline and prevent the
members of the union from violating
the law, and also as to the liability OF
the union breaking contracts. 1t was
apparent to many OF those present who
understood the situation, that Mr.. Will
cox's object was to attempt to prove by
Mr.. Mitchell's own testimony that the
contention of the companies that the
miners union was an irresponsible
organization, and that trade agreements
therefore, could not be safely entered
| into, was we'll founded.
During the hearing the statement
was brought out for the first time since
the late strike was begun that the
union had disbursed 81 500, 900 among
the union and nonunion men who were
on strike. One of the questions which
came up before the commission was
the advisability of hearing counsel on
behalf of the nonunion men who re.
manned at work during the strike. At
torney ]. j. Lenahan, one OF the at
torneys for the nonunion men, askeC
the commission what his status befor,
the arbitrators was. Judge Gray in
formed him that the question would b,
taken under consideration, and tha
an answer would probably be givel
him today.
