Fifty Killed and Thirty Injured.

Santiago de Chile, October lO.-By the
collapse of Il building in the course of
construction here to-day fifty men were
killed The victims were completely
buried in the debris, and so far no bodies
have been recovered. In addition to the
fifty killed there were thirty or more in
lurei, many of whom will die. The
building was to have been the largest in
Cho CITY and was far advanced toward
completion There were scores of mon
at work on the structure when, without
warming, the frame work collapsed, car
rying the workmen down to death. The
collapse of the structure caused the Wild
est excitement. Tch thousand persons
gathered about the ruins and soon n cry
arose against the contractors, and if they
had been found 1T is probable they would
have been summarily dealt with.

The Sumpter miner. [volume] (Sumpter, Or.) 1899-1905, 1904-11-23

Rumor is current to the effect that
General Charles s. Warren, Que Of
the renowned and multitudinous
fathers OF Sumpter," and his son.
Wesley w.. have cleaned up a
fortune In Tonopah and Gold6eld.
Young Warren was among the first
to enter the new Nevada camp, and
10 said to have acquired some
promising ground. The general, In
Butte, financed the proposition with
Montana capital.
General Warren was the president
Of the Sumpter Townsite company In
1899. 1900, during which years
Sumpter doomed.
A story comes from TOnopah of
one of Young War,an's e,cspsdes.
II seems that sn eastern syndicate
was negotiating for the purchase Of
Tonopah property upon which a
shaft had been sunk aud short drifts
run. The syIdicste desired to de-
termine whether or not these drifts
were In ore. The owners Of the
property refused any one permission
to enter the workings. and during
the progress of negotiations removed
the whim with which the shaft was
equipped, to guard against surrep-
titious examination. Young Warren
was commissioned by the syndicate
to Hnd out what 1t wanted to know.
Those who are acquainted with
Warren will readily realize that such
a proposition was u lark for him.

Me ,srs. Goss claimed to own and that

The contest is for the possession OF
a small fractional claim on the great
mother lode. which is supposed to be
very valuable, as is the Tabor
Fraction.
When seen by reporter for The
Miner this morning, Mr.. Hendryx
asid: ~ would rather not be quoted
az saying anything about the merits
OF the case. the origin Of which is
we'll known to everyone In this camp.
1 had an opportunity not long ago to
forestsll the filing Of the suits BY the
payment of some money, but pre-.
ferred to let the matter be settled BY

having no fear whatever as to the
outcome.

THE WAY THEY WORK II DOWN
IN THE TONAPAH.GOlDf|ELD CAMP

At the dead of night, when grave
yards yswn, Wesley borrowed"
wiudlass and bucket from an adjoin-
ing shaft, trespsssed on the for.
bidden premises, and descended into
the bowels of the earth. After
sampling the drifts and returning to
the bottom OF the shaft he discovered
that the bucket had been hoisted to
the surface. He shouted until his
lungs were sore and then settled
down to artistic swearing, which In
turn gave place to prayers and re-
pentance OF past sins as he prepared
to die by slow starvation. Suddenly
q slip Of paper fiuttered down the
shaft and fell at bis feet. BY the
light OF candle be read:
1--WE have ovsrpowered your helper
up here and have you at our mercy.
II you desire to reach the top during
the term Of your natural life, throw
away your samples aud agree TO
fsvorsbly report on this property.
Otherwise We will let you die like .
rat In hole.
"(Signed) THE OWNERS"
81 agree" shouted Warren. The
bucket was lowered and be was
brought to the top. He kept bis
word and the mine passed into the
hands OF Warren's clients.
Merely as a matter Of history II
might be mentioned that the property
eventually tuurned out to be
fabulously rich.

President, Alters Bill.
This measure was known as the Hans
brough-Newlands bill, and became the
basis upon which the committee work
was done, but as drafted it never be-
came law. 1t was discussed by self
constituted committee of representa-
tives from all the states concerned,
which met nearly every day during
December, and on December 18th agreed
upon form of the revised bill, which,
after still further changes by the senate
committee, passed the senate without
revision on March 2, 1902.
But in the form in which it was rec
commended by the general committee OF
which Mr.. Newlands was secretary, and
in WHICH it passed the senate, the bill
was unacceptable to President Roosevelt
as affording spectators and large LAND
