noted Black Jack, who was hanged at

UNDER GERMAN FLAG
ARMS GIVEN REBELS

VICTORIA, B. c., March 6.-The Manila
American, copies of which have just been
received. says 1t has very good reasons
for believing that recently a vessel flying
the German flag landed Mauser rifles on
the coast of Batangas for the use of the
insurgents. 1t is said that the shipment
comprised seventy cases, or about 1,40C
rifles, with ammunition.
The vessel was seen lowering about the
coast of Mindoro for several days, finally
dropped up to Batangas, almost within
cannon shot of Manila, and later disap-
peared. About the same time cargo of
arms was landed. The destination of these
weapons, The American says, can be read
lily imagined. The rifles can be bought in
Germany and Japan for something like
$50 gold on being delivered to the insurgent
commanders.
In view of the existence of numerous re-
cruiting stations in the district Of Ma
Mia itself. The American believes these
importations are serious.

explosion occurred shortly below noon in
the Catsburg mine, two men were serious
~ burned. Many others are entombed In
the mines which is burning furiously and
IL is feared all are dead
A rescuing party was trying to fight its
way into the mine at 2:30 o'clock.
From what can be learned Mayer, a
machinist went into the mine at noon or
shortly before 1t and placed his safety
lamp in one OF the rooms entrance.
At least a score of men were with him
and just as Hager put the lamp in the
opening a terrific explosion followed. All
the men were knocked down by the force
OF the explosion and many Of them rend-
cred insensible. Hager was stunned for
a minute, but as soon as he regained con-
sciousness. he crawled over the PROSTATE
forms of the men and succeeded in getting
to the mouth.
He was followed by James Turnan.
Both men were horribly burned about the
fAce and hands.
Despite the fact that Hager was suffer
ing intense pain, he crawled back into the
mine and tried to rouse the woTkmen,
who were piled on the floor, but without
success. He then went back to the open
ing and was taken in charge of by ply
sician. Turnan and he were removed to
their homes
The party was on its way to work when
the accident occurred but no person
seems to know how many men were in the
gang. Some reports give the number as
low as ten. while others have them up
to thirty. The pit opening is a mass of
flame. but the rescuing party is trying to
battle against it and get to the imprisoned
men.
The. Catsburg mine has had several ex-
plosions recently. The first of these oc-
CURED last week and since then some
smaller ones have occurred but none of
them resulted as seriously as yesterdays.
The mine had been boxed up, but was
opened yesterday in hopes that gas had
all been pumped out, and all the miners
used safety lamps in going in. The gas
was too much for the lamps however
and It is feared that many Of the men
have either been killed or will be burned
to death before the rescuing party can
reach them.

TRADE REPORT.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade last week says: Weather cen-
ditions have proved the important
movement in the last week in the
business world. Excessive rains in
some sections, notably the south
west, facilitated distribution of heavy
food products, overshoes and kindred
lines, while seasonably low temper
ature at other points increased the
movement of winter wearing apparel.
These influences, together with a
large Thanksgiving trade in food pro-
ducts, stimulated retail dealings very
materially. Jobbing and wholesale
trade Is fully maintained and manu-
featuring plants have orders far ahead,
but in many cases the coke shortage
retards operations. Railway officials
are making every effort to relieve the
freight congestion. Gross earnings are
fully maintained, for November thus
far exceeds last years by 6.3 per cent
and of 1900 by 1874 per cent, while it
is anticipated that higher freights will
