Found No Trace OF Vindctiyeness.

London. March 2o.-ColoniaI Secre,arv
Chafnbcrlain today received the citv of
London's congratulations on his mission to
South Africa in the guild hall where Lord
Mayor Samuel and the corporation nrc-
sented him with an address Of welcome /,

Mr.. and Mrs Chamberlain received n

there, broke through the police lines and
surrounded the carriage. The lord mayor.

hcers met Mr.. and Mrs. Chamberlain in
the library where procession was formed.

guild hall, in which the eulogizing of the
secretary's service in South Africa was
presented.
Great enthusiasm greeted Mr.. Chamber
lain on his rising to reply. His speech
was largely repetition Of his recent
speech at Southampton. He said he was
convinced that everything was en- train
for united South Africa under the Brit
ish flag.
I'm the words of my friend, General
Delarey," said Mr.. Chamberlain, "the
Boer leaders will be as loyal to their new
government as they were to the old"

The only fruit which we desire from
the war is the friendship of those who

ciliatory sentiment in this speech per-
vaded the entire speech.
Subsequently Mr., and Mrs. Chamber
lain were entertained by the lord mayor
at luncheon in the Mansion house.

WILL HAVE TIME OF
HIS LIFE IN THE YELLOWSTONE

for this recreation and seclusion for
which he yearns. Great physical effort
will be required for him to make the
journey, but il is in such effort that HE
soul delights.
Major Pitchers advices are that the
presidents special will remain at Living
ston and not at Cinnabar, as first an
nounced, and that accompanied only by
Or. Rixey, the surgeon general Of the
navy, and John Burroughs, the famou.
naturalist and poet, the president viii
enter the park for his long stay there,
emerging only on April ~.
He will travel, so Major Pitcher is in
formed, to all the chief points Of inter
est. To do this he will 90 part Of tho
way on horseback, and trails will be
broken for him through the snow for that
purpose, but there are long stretches,
miles in length, where he can 90 only on
snowshoes which will be provided for
him here at the fort There are other
places in the park where the going is
easy and over these he will travel
Major Pitcher has been directed to
have two sets Of snowshocs in q sleigh,
shoes in readiness, one for the president
and one for Mr.. Burroughs, so it is In
ferred that the saior-doctor, Rixey, will
90 only part way.
A very limited number OF soldiers,
perhaps only two or three, will accom-
pany the party as orderIies and messen-
gers. Through men, and through relays
at the various patrol stations, the pres-
dent will be kept in daily communica-
ton with the remainder OF his party.
A telegraph line doubtless will be
stretched into the presidential train at
Livingston where an executive office,
directed by Secretary Loeb, will be es-
tablished. Livingston, accordingly, will
for the time being become the center
Of government Of the United States, with
the governments directing head having
more fun than he had since his cowboy
days in tho hills and valleys OF the Wild

New London, Conn, March so.--In a
fog which descended upon the waters Of
Long Island Sound last night the big Fail
River passenger steamer Plymouth, from
New York for Fall River with 500 pas
sengers and crew of 200 men, was run
down while passing through the Race by
the freight steamer City of Taunton of the
line bound from New York. A full hun
dred feet of the starboard side of the ves-
sci was smashed in as il it had been pa
per, the staterooms of the second cabin
were entirely cut away, while down the
hold most of the crew, who were asleep
m the steerage, were drowned by tor
rent OF water that poured through the
great gap made by the bow OF the
freighter.
Although greatly terrified. the people
aboard the stricken ship showed great self
control and there was no panic. The col
lision occurred after the vessel had slowly
made ner way over the sound through the
fog until she reached a point east OF
Gull Island. The City of Taunton drove
up out OF the fog and when she was
sighted by the Plymouth was too close to
avoid the collision.
There was quick exchange of signals
and then the crash. The bow of the City
of Taunton penetrated 10 feet into the
hull Of the Plymouth and as she backed
away she raked the upper works Of the

SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.

SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Fort Yellowstone, National Park,
March 2o.-When President Roosevelt
comes to the National Park on April 8
to remain for two weeks he is going to
have the time OF his life.
Few people outside Of the park re-
alize just what il means to spend two
weeks in the nations playground in
April. Then the snow lies deep on the
ground and bitter cold prevails. The
only human life stirring in the vast area
is that Of the federal troops, who are
the guardians Of the reserve. They,
few in number, on their snow shoes,
travel over the snow from tiny patrol
station to station, suffering great hard
ships and frequently, as the sad record
Of this post testifies, being frozen to
death in some sudden blizzard blast
which sweeps over the hills and Wales Of
Wonderland.

FOUR BUTTE MINERS ]
PASS CLOSE TO DEATH

Death passed close to four men in un-
derground workings during the past 4o
hours and missed each by similar strange
freak of fortune. In exactly the same
odd manner luck saved the lives of John
Toward and Dennis Leary. Both men
are now at the St. James hospital, brought
to the place by accidents SO like in time,
place and manner of occurrence that the
coincidence is away out of the ordinary.
Leary was brought in Wednesday even
ing from the St. Lawrence mine. While
working at the bottom of chute he was
struck on the right foot by heavy stick
of timber, which fell from FIVE sets above.
He escaped with his life by miracle.
His right foot is amputated at the ankle.
Last evening, at almost tie same hour
Leary was injured, John Toward was
working at the bottom of chute in the
Clear Creek mine. A timber, which was
being set about 40 feet above him, fell
from Its place. 1t plunged past his head

REPLY TO WABASH H
Attorney for Trainmens'
Brotherhood Answers
Railway Lawyers.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

st. Louis, March 2o.-Attorney Judson,
speaking for the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Firemen and Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen, gave reply to the claims ad-
vanced by the railroad company that the
grievances in the case originated with The
defendants and not with employees of the
railroad.
Judson claimed that the assertion of the
railroad that if the men struck, it would
be in violation of contract was not ten
able, inasmuch as there were no contracts
in existence.
In summing up the evidence, Mr.. Judson
declared that the sole jurisdiction pos
sessed by the court came through viola
tions of the interstate commerce law.
These violations must be illegal in the
means used to an end or illegal in the ends
sought and there had been nothing shown,
he declared, to indicate that either the
end sought or the means used to attain
it were against the law, therefore, the en-
tire case fell to the ground and he praycd
the dissolution of the Injunction. He
concluded his argument at Io4s, and
Judge II. S. Priest, special counsel for
the Wabash road, rose to make the third
argument for the company.

SPOONER IS CALLED
DOWN BY COMMISSION

Washington, March ao.-Civil Commits
sioner Foulke today sent letter to Sena-
tor Spooner Of Wisconsin in reply to sharp
criticism OF letters written to individual
senators by Mr.. Foulke regarding certain
inaccuracies in statements made on the
floor during consideration OF a resolution
calling for information concerning the re-
moyal Of Elmer Forshay from the office
Of surveyor-general. of Idaho.
Mr.. Foulke said: Thus the paradox
is presented that, although the charge was
untrue, had no right to point out the
particulars in which It was true, even in
letters to individual senator's. If this Do
sition is sound, it will be the duty of ex-
ecutive officers to submit in absolute ST.
lence to the gravest charges of miscon-
duct or even of crime uttered in the most
public place in the nation. No self-rc-
specting man could hold an administra-
tive Office under such conditions. sub
