Details of Terrible Affair.
Frank. N. w. r., May 1.-The disas-
ter at Frank Wednesday was a huge
landslide. There was no explosion
whatever. The avalanche was of such,
large dimensions that the cloud of
dust was taken for smoke and the
minor slips were taken for inside .ex-
plosions. The whole east end of the
mountain extending from the tipple
eastward has gone out. 1t was 4,4OO
feet high and slid across the entire
valley, blocking the track to the
French mine. This track is about 40
feet higher than the Canadian Pacific
railway track and is distant about
three-quarters of a mile from the mine
entrance. The slide extends from a
point about zoe feet east of Frank sta
ton to a point one and a half miles
east. This track is covered with rocks
ranging in size from a pebble to huge
rocks the size of a railroad car. The
Canadian Pacific railway is arrana
ing to cut a waterway through where
the river is blocked up in order to avoid
danger of a flood. The loss of life can
not be estimated yet. Thirty miners
were entombed. Of this number IS
were rescued uniniured. Two men
were ~suffocated. It is believed the rest
will be saved. About ten houses.ip the.
east end of the town were DESTROYED
II entire families wiped out. A.
Leltch. his wife and four of his chill
oren were Killed and three escaped.
Other Slides Threaten.
There is no reason why the whole of
the remaining side of the mountain
will not come down. in which case
there will be absolutely nothing left
OF the country east of Blairmore.
Many small lodges of rock continue to
come down from the mountain. and #,
is a hard matter to get men to work
Tor fear OF second catastrophe.
Wife and Six Children Killed.
One. of the rescued miners found his
house covered with rocks many feet
deep and his wife and six children dead
1t has been proven that those in the
mine were safer than those outside of
1T. The inside workings of the mine
are intact and no explosion, or sign
OF gas was felt by the entombed men
until late in the afternoon. Thew
worked their w way out through 80
feet of rock: timbering as they went.
Plenty of air is now going into the
MINES and large gangs of men are at
WORK. rushing through the rebuilding
OF railway and telegraph lines.

bles, Irene Parker. has been sick with
the disease for several days. Investiga-
tion showed that she had recently
visited her sister. Mrs. Estelle Mundie.
of 200 Fourteenth Street northwest.
The young woman was removed to the
smallpox hospital and the Home for In
curables was quarantined.
Investigation at the Fourteenth Street
house revealed the fact that Mrs. Nun
die and child, Sarah, two years old,
had been suffering from the disease, and
we're almost we'll. They were taken to
the smallpox hospital, but were later
allowed TO depart. Mr.. Mundie and a
boarder. Edward w. Coghill, twenty

the Fourteenth Street house Thursday,
and yesterday CoghilI developed the

TEA SAMPLES TO Be
LARGER IN THE FUTURE

The Treasury Department has made a
ruling of interest to users OF tea in
consequence Of which business firms
may hereafter send twelve ounces of
sample tea through the mails instead OF
only four ounces heretofore permitted
by law.
Tea importers have for some time past
been desirous Of greater liberty in
sending samples of their goods to pros
pective customers. or new blends to old
customers In efforts to extend their
trade they have wished to present 10
possible buyers more than a rneagcr
four ounces. and have made sa.sfac-
tory explanations to the Treasury De.
partment as the reason for seeking the
increased allowance.
The PostofiIce Department will be in
formed OF the decision arrived at by the
Treasury officials and will be requested
TO make the necessary orders relative to
accepting twelve-ounce packages for
transmission through the mails at spe-
cial rates, instead OF only the four
ounce packages previously admissible to
that rate.

SURGEON SHOULD BE
PAID FOR LOST CREDIT
Bigger Fee if P atient Dies, Say
Expert.

NEW YORK, July 4.-While testifyinE
before Referee James f Kelly in the
supreme court. DR.. Edward wallace Lee.
one OF the surgeons who operated on
President Mckinley. said that a surgeon
should receive more pay when a patient
died than when one recovered.
DIR. Lee testified in behalf of DR.. James
II. Manley. in DR.. Manley's suit TO re-
cover s525 from the executor of the es-
tate OF the late Bridget c. Barrett. DR..
Manley's fee OF s525 was for medical at
tendance and for an operation which he
performed on Mrs. Barrett The opera
ton consisted IN the removal Of an ab-
dOminal cancer Mrs Barrett died Her
husband refused to pay the surgeons
bill
Jacob Marks, counsel for the husband
of the dead woman. contended that the
fee was. excessive. He said that from
$3.50 to $500 would be liberal compensa-
ton.
One Of the expert witnesses called for
DR.. Manley was DR.. Lee. on cross-ex-
animation Mr.. Marks asked DR.. Lee this
question:
Would you consider the fact that the
patient did not live any element in fix
ing the charger"
no The fact that the person does
not live does not relieve the surgeon Of
his responsibility at the operation he
has performed, nor does il in any way
mitigate his feelings and, in fact a
man should be paid more when patient
dies than when he recovers."
DR.. Lee said in response 10 a question
by Referee Kelly that a surgeon gets
some credit il the operation IS a success
and is blamed If the operation does not
prove a benefit. and consequently sur
geons have 10 base their charges on the
responsibility that they assume
