KILLED BY ELECTRICITY.
Broken Wire Drops Into q Pool of Water
Charging the Same to High
and Fatal Degree.

Pittsburg, Pa, July Gan Ameri-
can flag Saturday indirectly caused
the death of four persons during an
electrical storm in which the flag,
soaked by water, blew against heav-
lily charged electric wire, causing it
to break and fall into pool of water
at Forbes and lakewood avenues. The
the four persons met death by falling
into the pool. Shortly after the wire
fell into the puddle, Joseph Visa,
while running through the binding
rain to seek shelter, stepped into the
pool and dropped dead. Those who
saw Visa fall were unable to rescue
him at the time, and while means of
recovering the body were in discus
sion, a carriage containing seven per-
sons came down the street to escape
the rain. Shouts of warning were not
understood. One horse fell into the
electrified water and was paralyzed.
The occupants of the carriage.
alarmed by the unexplainable falling
of the horse and by the frantic cries
of the onlookers, began to jump from
the vehicle. Fou~ leaped to the side
of the rig away from the pool and es-
capped. Francesca stotte, 81 years old;,
Giuseppe Stotti, % years old, and
Giuseppe Renda jumped into the pud-
die and died. It was some time before
the bodies could be taken from the
water.

BLACKS .BESIEGE TOWN.
Negroes Threaten Bloody Revenge for tho
Lynchlng of an Old Soldier
Slayer.

Atlanta, Ca, July GA Constitution
special from Columbia, S. c., says that
owing to threats made by negroes at
Norway, S. c., to revenge the lynch
ing of Charles Evans, a battalion Of
state militia has been ordered to Nor
way on special train.
1t is reported that large forces of
negroes have surrounded the town of
200 inhabitants and are threatening to
destroy the place, which is helpless
against the overwhelming numbers of
blacks.
The cause of the alleged threats of
the negroes is the lynching of Charles
Evans at the place last week for the
killing of John Phillips, a one-armed
confederate soldier
Columbia, S. c., July 4.-The Rich
land volunteer rifle company is on it's
way to Norway, responding to call
made on the governor by the citizens
of that town who feared an attack by
hundreds of negroes said to surround
the village. The purpose of the ne
groes is to avenge the lynching of
Charles E. Evans.
The special train should reach Nor
way about 2:15 a. m. Nothing has
been heard from there since the call
for aid, but it was not thought the
attempt would be made until late in
the night.

THE POPE IS ILL.
His Condition Grew Worse, He
Having Caught Cold.

Rome, July SIT appears that the
condition of the pope became sudden
~ worse after Fridays drive in the
vatican gardens when, notwithstand-
ing the fact that the temperature was
Sc degrees Fahrenheit, he caught cold
and it settled in his chest and head
producing shortly afterwards diffuse
bronchial catarrh, accompanied by a
slight cough, thirst, lassitude and wa
terry eyes.
Fortunately, up to the present, no
fever has developed, not even in
creased heat, and there has been no
acceleration of the pulse, which is
rather weak.
All the efforts of DR.. Lapponi tend
to combat the catarrh and to prevent
its further spread, especially its de-
velopment into bronchitis or inflam-
nation of the lungs.
Feeling his responsibility, Dr. lap
Poni would have liked to have a con-
sultation with the best physicians in
Rome, but the ca pope absolutely re-
fused to agree to this. He said he
had entire confidence in DR.. Lapponi
and added that the only other person
he would allow to be called was DR..
Mazzone, who operated on the pontiR
in 1899. When DR.. Laponni remarked
that DR.. Mazzone was surgeon and
that therefore his professional SER
vices were not needed, the pope re-
Piled:
1T does not matter, it is not for
his professional services that I want
him, but because like him.
1t has therefore been decided that
DR.. Ma7onnh Shall visit the pope this
morning.
Although no medical bulletin has
been issued, it was learned that the
pope's illness may be defined as senile
pneumonia, which has settled espec-
tally in the right lung.
The Osservatore Romano, fearing
that suspension of audiences, which
has been decided upon, would cause
anxiety, interviewed DR.. Lapponi, who
said that the pope had been rather
fatigued by recent receptions and had
consented to follow his advice and
take several days. rest. His holiness,
however, has been unable to leave his
bed since Friday night and his heart
is gradually becoming weaker, neces-
stating frequent doses of digitalis.
Judging from the present symptoms
the prognosis is that if all goes we'll
the crisis leading to recovery will oc-
cur within seven or eight days; but,
if the disease takes bad turn, espec-
tally If the heart grows weaker, a
catastrophe may occur in four or five
days.
Some of the court dignitaries, it is
said, have been ordered to postpone
their departure for their holidays.

st. Louis, July AT meeting of

the World by the Way of
the Philippines.

New York, July 5.-The last con-
nection in the Commercial Cable COM
pany's line was made at Honolulu last
night at 1850 o'clock, eastern time,
and cable dispatch was flashed
around the world in 9H minutes.
The first message over the cable

"Oyster Bay, July 4.-To Gov. Taft,
Manila:
II open the American Pacific cable
with greetings to you and the people

At 11:19 p. m. the following reply

manila, July 4.-To the President:
''The Filipino people and the Ameri-
cans resident in these islands are glad
to present their respectful greetings
and congratulations to the president
of the United States, conveyed over
the cable with which American enter
prise has girded the Pacific, thereby
rendering easier and more frequent
communication between the two coun-
tries
ut will certainly lead to closer
union and better mutual under
standing of each others aims and
sympathies, and of their common in
terest in the prosperity of the Philip
pines and the education and develop
ment of the Filipinos. It is not in
appropriate to incorporate in this, the
first message across the Pacific, from
the Philippines to America, an earnest
plea for the reduction of the tariff
on Filipino products in accordance
with the broad and liberal spirit
which the American people desire to
manifest toward the Philippines and
of which you have been IN earnest ex-
| ponent. TAFT"

Mr.. Mackey replied as follows, his
message going around the world east
ward in 9H minutes:
ITO the President, Oyster Bay

useful factor to the commerce of the

STATEMENT FROM RUSSIA
Foreign Office Says Car Alone Can
Decide Whether American Petl-
ton Will Be Received.
HINTS THAT IT WOULD Be RETURNED.
Refers to English Petition of 1891
and Hopes That Slight Will Not
BE Invited-Comment of Russian
Paper-Says America Would Not
Tolerate Any Interference.

st. Petersburg, July 4.-President
Rooseveat's decision to forward to the
Russian government the petition in be-
half of the Russian Jews is not pub
lished here. The foreign Office has
made the following statement:
"The car alone can decide whether
the petition will be received, but Alex
ander III. would never have received
such petition. The petition from the
Guildhall meeting, called by the lord
mayor of London in 1891, was returned
through the foreign Office as being in
convenient. The foreign Office hopes
the Americans will not invite such a
slight. They would resent an anti
lynch1ng petition. The foreign office
has no special interest in the question,
except desire that International rela-
lions remain unframed, since the mat
ter is purely domestic and belongs to
another ministerial department"
In an article, which in official circles
is declared to be inspired. the Novoe
Vremya combats the claim of the
United States government that Russia
0AOu1O duI kAuc1 lCdu jews 1E00 access
TO Russian territory
The NOvoe Vremya declares that if all
American citizens were admitted to Rus
STA 1T would not be long before thou
sands of Jews who have left Russia for
various reasons would reflock to Russia
In the guise of American citizens just
as they are doing in Roumania, Bull
garia and Turkey. If Russia acceded to
the United States wish she could not
refuse to grant similar privileges in the
case of other countries and would soon
undergo perfect invasion Of foreign
Jews"
The Novoe Vremya also refers to the
United States restricting immigration
and concludes:
while Russia in no way assumes the
right of criticising the internal meas
ures of the United States, she, on the
other hand, will not tolerate the least
interference in her private affairs on
the part of Americans
