she has held for a number of years,
and which she has resigned on ac-
count of her removal to Houghton

be deeply regretted. Miss Rose
Blankenhorn was elected to the
Office of finance keeper, at meet
ing Of the lodge Monday evening.
A serious break occurred in the
village water main on Railroad
street Saturday last. AS result
water consumers were obliged to
resort to the methods of by-gone
days, before the installation of the
water system, and haul water from
the creeks or wherever 1t could be
obtained. The water was shut off
from the north half of the town for
nearly twenty-four hours. The
break occurred at point where
the water main crosses an old cul-
vert about six feet underground,
and a force of men worked all
Saturday night and Sunday morn
ing making repairs. The street
was closed to traffic all week, the
culvert also having been dug up
and repaired.

RIOTS AT THE 500.
Consolidated Company Employees
Attack Building.

There was day of rioting at the
Canadian 500 Monday, in which the
Consolidated Lake Superior COM
pany's offices were stormed, and the
militia called out. The discharged
men, who now number more than
$500, were in a sullen mood and
leaders made inflammatory speeches.
A mass of frenzied rioters secured
possession of the ground floor of the
building, destroying everything
movable that came in their path.
A crowd of the officers with drawn
revolvers prevented their gaining
access to the upper floors of the
building. Every window and door
in the building was smashed in.
The arrival of troops on the grounds
served to restore some semblance of
order.

short FIVE cents in settling for his
breakfast, Marcus sheehan, a guard on
the South Side elevated road, was shot
and instantly killed early to-day by
James Berganus, proprietor of State
street restaurant. Having but fifteen
cents in his pockets, sheehan ordered a
meal which he thought called for that
amount Of money. When he came to
pay for the meal, however, he was told
by Berganus that he owed twenty
cents.
"That is all the money I have" said
sheehan. "I'l1 give you the other nick
Ell this afternoon"
you'll pay now or you will never
leave this house." said Berganus.
Sheehan laughed and turned toward
the door, but before he could reach it
Berganus drew revolver and without
a word of warning fired. Sheehan was
shot in the head and instantly killed.
Throwing Sheehan's body out upon
the sidewalk, Berganus locked up the
place and fled. He is still at large.

French War Minfster Finds Important
Documents Were ForSerfes.
Paris, Nov. 29.--It is affirmed that
General Andre, the war minister, ex-
amined the Dreyfus dossier in order to
verify accusations against certain off,
GERS involved in the Dreyfus case, and
the statement that two documents
which Influenced greatly the court at
Rennes before which Dreyfus was tried
were undoubtedly forgeries. 1t is fur
ther asserted that a number Of docu-
ments most favorable to Dreyfus were
not shown to the Rennes court.
In the event of a demand for an in
terpellation regarding the case being
made in the chamber of deputies the
government intends to ask for an ad-
journment of that body until the COM
mission to which was referred the dos
sier and the petition for a revision of
sentence shall have rendered a decision.
This action will be taken in order to
prevent parliament from interfering in
an investigation of a purely judicial
character.

sUGG EsTED DITo,s ASSASSINATION
Anti-Ruasian Element In Japan An
gsred nj Delay.

Victoria, B. G., Nov. 29.-Advices from
Toxic by the steamer Athenian say
that the dragging of the Russo-Japan-
ese negotiations and the manner in
which Russia is using the delay to con-
tine aggressive tactics, the policy Of
provoking Japan having lately given
place to pressure upon China, Is caus-
ing considerable agitation in Japan
Attacks against the delays in negotia-
tions have lately concentrated in a
charge that Marquis Ito is a Russo
pnile, and after the publication Of a
strong memorial to the marquis by the
anti-Russia union, whose delegations
were refused an audience by Marquis
Ito, the Nippon, an anti Russian paper,
suggested the assassination Of Marquis
Ito. The government suppressed the
issue, but not before it had been widely
circulated. ~
Viceroy Yuan Shih Kai has strongly
memorialized lie government to decide
upon resolute policy against Russia,
claiming that Japan and America, be-
ing inclined to resist Russian aggres-
sion in Manchuria, would support Chi
ma. The reconstruction Of the cabinet
has resulted in a marked stiffening
against Russian demands.
A weekly newspaper. printed in Eng
lish has been established by Russians
at Port Arthur to advocate an Anglo
Russian alliance.

Two KILLED BY TROLLEY

INSTANT DEATH.
To Avoid a Bad Place In the Road Benz
jnmIn comstock and Nicholas Pace
Drive Onto the Trncks-struck Be-
fore They Could Turn Out-TroiTey-
men Not ResponsIbIe.

Norwalk, Nov. 29.--Benjamin Conn
stock, a landscape gardener, and Mich
olas Pace, a carriage maker, were kill
ed early to-day by an electric car while
driving along the tracks of the West
port and NorWalk branch of the Con-
necticut Railway and Lighting compa-
ny. Both men resided in this city and
were returning from a visit to West
port. ~..,m I'LL
In order to avoid a bad place in the
road the men drove their horse along
the tracks, which provided a better
road. They had just descended slight
incline, when a car came rushing down
the hill and before they could turn out
it struck the wagon. Pace was cut
nearly in two, while Comstocg was
jammed under the wheels of the car.
1t required Wrecking car to lift the
wheels from his body. Death was al
most instant in each case. Both men
were about forty-f1ve years old and
leave families here.
Coroner Hunt, of NorWalk, and Coro-
ner Powers, of West port, were called

EASIEST WAY OUT or MUSS
EAIsER,s WITHDRAWAL OF
OFFER OF cur.

some Believe IL Was Influenced IN Part
by the Tangie Caused BY the Trouble
yacht Clubs-Their Inability 10 Reach
am Agreement.
Berlin, Nov. 29.--Althoug1l the reasons
of Emperor William for the temporary
withdrawal of his offer of cup for a
transatlantic yacht race are regarded
by his yachting advisers as sufficient,
there were. other considerations that
made withdrawal Of the trophy for
next season the easest way out Of the
tangle caused by the inability Of the
New York Yacht club and the Atlantic
Yacht club to agree on the subject.
The original purpose Of Emperor Will
liam was to have the race for the cup
managed jointly by the New York
Yacht club and the Atlantic Yacht club.
of both OF which clubs he is d member
and the Royal Yacht squadron Of CoWes
and the Imperial Yacht club Of Kiel.
Previously, Sir Thomas Upton had Of
fered a cup to the Atlantic Yacht club
for an ocean race in 1904, but learning
that Emperor William desired to give q
trophy, Commodore Tod Of the Atlantic
Yacht club, sent cablegram to Sir
Thomas, asking IL he would withdraw
and permit the emperor to offer a cup.
Commodore Tod's cablegram was
marked Private" Sir Thomas, how
ever, on October 27 telegraphed EN-
peror William his withdrawal and the
emperor, supposing from Sir Thomas
telegram that everything had been ar
ranged in the United States, replied to
Sir Thomas October 2s, thanking him
for his magnanimity, saying that he
would have his ambassador offer cup.
The failure of the New York Yacht
club and the Atlantic Yacht club to
agras with regard to the matter was
met by proposal from Emperor Will
liam last week that he would give a
cup i'm 1904 to the Atlantic Yacht club,
provided the New York Yacht club,
would enter it's yachts i'm the race, and
one to the New York Yacht club In 1905
for a race In which the Atlantic Yacht
club would enter, thus avoiding joint
management Of the cups. This was not
satisfactory to the New York Yacht
club, and the emperor therefore with
drew his offer, as the time is now too
short to get new baots ready for a race
next year.

CUT OF TEN PER CENT. IN WAGES
To be Made by several of the Smaller
Coal Operators.

Baltimore, Nov. 29.--It is announced
that the Somerset Coal company, the
W. K. Niver Coal company and the
Merchants Coal company, which own
and operate a number of mines in the
Meyersdale, Pa, region, have decided
to make reduction of ten cents d ton
in the wages of the miners. The cut
will become effective December 16.
The three companies employ over $500
men, and it is expected that the ether
smaller operators in that region will
follow with similar reduction. The
operators do not anticipate strike.
The companies voluntarily advanced
the pay of their miners last April from
55 to 65 cents ton. Now that the
trade is fiat and competition acute, it is
considered necessary to return to the
old rate. .....-
Officials of the three companies held
several conferences here during the
past week before it was decided to re-
duce wages. The Somerset Coal com
pany operates eighteen mines in the
Meyersdale region and employs over
fifteen hundred miners. The w. K.
Niver Coal company employs about six
hundred men. 1t is said that the reduc-
ton will not affect the scale of wages
paid in other regions.
