HIS HEAD WAS TORN OFF
The Burning of Giant Powder in a
 Colorado Mine.

Leadville, Colo. June 1O.-Two hun dred and fifty pounds of giant powder exploded at the shaft house of the For tune mine this morning, destroying the shaft house and machinery. Five men were entombed in the mine until five o'clock, when all were rescued except ing the superintendent. Patrick Barker, who was found dead in the bottom of the shaft with his head cut off. The explosion was caused by a fire which ignited the powder and the explosion completely wrecked the surface build- ings.
 Superintendent John G. Murphy of the Resurrection mine. adjoining, at once organized a rescue force and started down the Sedalia shaft, as the workings of this property connect with those of the Fortune. The pumps of the Sedalia were started so as to lower the water and by five o'clock an entrance was affected into the mine and the miners brought to the surface uninjured.
 Superintendent Barker had climbed up the Fortune shaft some distance after the accident had occurred and was probably struck by falling timber. His head was torn from his body.

THE NEW BRITISH TARIFF
A Temporary Arrangement Prevents
 Crisis.

London, June 10.-By a dextrous and extraordinary speech, Premier Balfour tonight temporarily smoothed over the difficulty in the cabinet. relieved Col onial Secretary Chamberlain of any necessity of resigning. and for the mo- ment averted a crisis. MT. Balfour accomplished this without committing the government either to protection or to free trade, though the effect of his speech will generally be taken to mean that the tariff issue is to be relieved for the present.

LACK OF MONEY Was a Godsend in This Case.

It is not always that lack of mon ey is benefit.
 "A lady of Green Forest. Ark, owes her health to the fact that she could not pay in advance the fee dema ndeCi by specialist to treat her for stom- ach trouble; she quit coffee and took on Postum. In telling of her case she says: ''I had been treated by four diff ierent physicians during ten years of stomach trouble.
 Lately I called on another who told me he could not cure me; that I had neuralgia of the stomach. Then I went to a specialist who told me I had ca tarrh of the stomach and said he could cure me In four months but would have to have his money down. I could not raise the necessary sum ard in my ex- tremity I determined to quit coffee and try Postum Food Coffee
 "So l gave up coffee and gave Pos tum a thorough trial and the results have been magical. I LOW sleep well at night, something I have not done for a long time; the pain in my stom- ach is gone and l am a different wom- an. l dreaded to quit coffee because every time 1 had tried to stop it l suffered from severe headaches. so ] continued to drink it although I knew it was injurious to me. being the cause of my stomach trouble and extreme nervousness. But when I had Postun to shift to it was different.
 And to my surprise I did not miss coffee when I began to drink Postum Coffee had been steadily and surely killing me and I didn't realize what was doing it until I quit" Name giver by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.

The Testimony of Witness Who Saw
 the Assassination.

Jackson, Ky, June 10.-In the Mar cum murder trial today Attorney O'Neil TOT the defense moved to set aside the entire jury panel as irregular. Judge Redwine overruled the motion. The commonwealth's attorney, Byrd, in outlining the case, sand he would prove that White and Jett entered into a conspiracy to kill Marcum, and that Jett fired the shots, this having been seen by witnesses whom he would produce.
 B. J. Ewen, the first witness, testified to standing beside Marcum when he was shot. Just before the shooting Tom White passed by and Marcum said: I'm afraid of that fellow. he means to do me harm"
 An instant later the witness heard a pistol crack. Marcum, who had his arm on the witnesses shoulder, re- leased his hold and dropped to the floor. exclaiming. "Oh. Lord, they have killed mel" The witness looked back and saw Curtis Jett with a pistol gripped in both hands.
 II then fed the witness continued, "as I thought that it was I he was after when a second shot was fired"

AN ANXIOUS DAY.
Waiting for Word From Clifton and
 Morenci.

Yesterday was a rather anxious day at the office of the governor. It was quite late in the morning before any word was received from Clifton and Morenci. It was not reassuring. The situation was described as being more critical than it had been the day before and a serious outbreak was expected at any moment. One of the earlier dis patches described a dangerous condi- tion at Morenci. The camp was said to be at the mercy of 1000 armed Ital- ians and Mexicans against whom there was a force of only sixty-five deputies for the preservation of property threat ened with destruction. It was sug- gested that martial law be declared in that district and that regular troops be hurried forward.
 Acting Governor Stoddard had wired the war department the night before asking that regulars be dispatched to the scene of trouble but no reply to the request was received until this morn ing, when the following came from General Baldwin, commanding the de- partment of the Colorado:
 Denver, June 10. To the Governor of- Arizona,

some wringirg their hands and weep ing. They were assured that Governor Yates had telegraphed that four com panies of militiamen for guard duty would arrive before nightfall and would establish a thorough boat patrol with orders to kill river thieves on sight and finally the unwilling house. holders were persuaded to go to land. As wives entered boats that were too filled to carry husbands or children, who were sent ahead O; the parents they wept and clasped each other in their arms in abject fear that some calamity might forever part them. One mother knelt on the house top with hands uplifted in audible prayer for a safe voyage ashore. The children were taken away on Q boat
 At the landings weeping women were tenderly handed from the boats and staggered from the water calling for some missing loved one. At the principal landing. that of Broadway and Tenth street. several women faint ed after being assisted from the boats.
 With unflagging energy Mayor Cook who has passed through flood exigen-
 
 erly lived. and knows how to deal with high water. urged the laborers to work upon the temporary levees in the fear that an hours rNe during the night might farther inundate the city As the night drew on another fear con fronted the inhabitants. The water that had steadily roured through the Broadway embankment in heavy streams, was surely undermining that bulwark and it was generally acknow~ ledged that the street could not re- strain the heavy pressure from it's south side for many hours longer with the seepage water eating away at the Interior. The belief is held that the river is rising asd is confirmed by the St. Louis government guage. The guage registers 37.95 at o'clock to- night, rise of .05 of foot during the past twenty-four hours. No attempt is made to explain this rise other than that the wind is forcing the water from the lowlands into the channels of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers to swell the torrent at St. Louis.
 Denverside, a suburb of East St Louis. was completely inundated and Alta Sita, farther to the east. was half flooded last night. If the river rises even to a small additional extent the water must swamp Alta Sita. From the ordinary course of the Mississippi to the Illinois bluffs is a distance of five to eight miles. and the flood laps at the foot of the bluffs. Riot guns were collected by Chief of Police Pur- dy today and tonight. They were given out to guards to patrol the streets where hundreds of dollars worth oi furniture is stacked. and to patrol the sand bag levee and any thieves or pos sibly levee cutters are to be shot down instantly. Martial law has not been officially proclaimed, but East St. Louis is practically being governed un- der such conditions during the flood and is no place for idle. suspicious characters.

COPPER C0nPANIES' OFFERS.

Just before the eight-hour law went into effect the Arizona Copper com pany at Clifton issued the following notice to it's employees:
 We regret to have to intimate that recent legislation has, apparently, de- prived the workingman of his right to work more than eight hours under ground in any one day.
 As the work of man is valued not by the day. but by the hour, a reduc- ton of two hours per day IS equivalent to a reduction of 20 per cent in wages. We do not believe that such reduc- tion is desired by the workingman. At the same time we would point out that in this district it takes over thirty tons of ore to make one ton of copper, whereas at the other great camps from ten to fourteen tons only are required to produce the same amount of copper. It is thus evident that the ores of this district are by far the lowest in grade in the west. The grade of such ores means not only that their mining costs are already the highest in the terri tory; it also means greatly increased costs for metallurgical treatment.
 We believe that our underground men can do more work than they are doing, and that they are willing to do so. On that understanding we are willing to meet them half way. We have therefore decided to pay under ground men nine hours pay for eight hours work on and after the 1st day of June. 1903.
 "This advantage applies only to men employed underground; and it does not affect existing arrangements whereby wages are affected by the price of cop per.
 Tn conclusion, we would point out that most of our copper is shipped 10 Europe, where it has to compete against a more valuable Spanish ore. Spanish labor costs not more than 75 cents per day.
 We trust that our employees will bear these things in mind, and that they will regard the offer here made as proof of our strong desire to maintain the pleasant and friendly relations which have heretofore existed.
 "The hours of work shall be from 8 a. m. to F noon and from 80 D. m. to 5:So p. m-
