ST. PETERSBURG, April 15.-vice-

mand of the fleet until Vice Admiral
Skrydloff hoists his flag.
Forty-five officers and men perished
on the torpedo-boat destroyer Bes-
trachni, whose destruction by the Jap
anese was announced to-day.
Rear Admiral Prince Ouktomsky
telegraphed from Port Arthur to-day
that the Bestrachni, which was one OF
the destroyers sent out during the
night to reconnoiter, became separated
from the rest of the fleet. owing to
the bad weather prevailing, was sur
rounded by Japanese torpedo-boat de-
stroyers and was sunk in the fight.
Five men we're saved. Admiral Ouk-
tomsky adds:
Il have taken command provision

the Petropavlovsk. During some
maneuvering of the battleship squad

amidships on the starboard side. She
was able to regain port by herself.

SEATTLE, April 14.-Eleven persons
were injured tonight during the fire
departments run to fire at Second
avenue and Cherry street. A hose
wagon from headquarters ran into a
Yesler way car that was started across
Second avenue ahead of the wagon,
and a small girl, Anna Omley, was
seriously injured. She was seated on
the rear platform, which was struck
by the wagon, her left arm being
broken and her chest crushed. The
platform of the car was demolished,
but neither the firemen on the wagon
nor the horses were injured.
One of the horses attached to hose
wagon No. 2 fell at Second and Madi-
son streets. While this horse was be-
ing raised to his feet the other broke
loose from a bystander who was hold
ing him and ran down the street. Two
persons were knocked over and slightly
injured as the horse broke loose
At Cherry street the frightened horse
was turned aside from the middle of
the street by a fire engine. He dashed
to the sidewalk, running a block
through a big crowd that had gathered
to watch the fire.
Eight persons, two of them women,
were knocked down by the horse dur
ing his run to James street, a block
distant where he was caught The
most seriously injured were:
Michael Drummond. logger from
Grays Harbor; injured internally.
James Sheehan and A. Lebgue of Sc

MIRACVLOUSLY
ESCAPE DEATH
Crew of Freight Train Over
come by Gases in Tunnel
at Summit of Cuesta Grade

SAN LUIS OBISPO, April 1.-THE
entire crew of a big freight train. an
extra west. came near losing their lives
by suffocation in tunnel No. 1 at the
summit of Cuesta grade, near this
city, this morning. About o'clock the
train broke in the middle of the
tunnel and the fumes from the three
big engines used in propelling the
train over the grade filed the tunnel
so thoroughly that four of the men
were soon unconscious and it was with
the greatest difficulty that those most
favorably located in the tunnel sue
ceeded in pulling the train out of the
way. The crew consisted OF A. ..
Bailey, conductor; Engineers Burke.
Forest and Anderson; Firemen Hurn-
dali, McHenry and Postlewait. and
Brakemen Carlton, Feetro and Kane.
Bailey, Anderson, Postlewait and
Carlton soon became unconscious.
Engineer Burke finally succeeded in
backing the stalled portion of the train
out of the tunnel, and when it was
found after clearing that four of the
crew were missing a search was made
and the unconscious men found and
carried out.
The tunnel is long one and no
such predicament ever confronted the
railroad men here before. The air
was heavy and there was no draught
through the tunnel. The summit of
the grade is in the middle of the tun-
mel, both entrances being lower than
the center. This makes the tunnel
doubly dangerous. as the gas must
escape very slowly at best. All of the
men soon recovered consciousness, but
Bailey is still bedfast-

any man who attempted to enter the
Jail, and this seemed to check the mob.
The Jail is still surrounded, however.

DENY URUPS STATEMENT.
Rear Admiral Urui's statement that
Vice Admiral Togo's fleet was respon-
sible for the sinking of the battleship
Petropavlovsk at Port Arthur is Of
ficially denied here. A member of the
general staff informs the press that
the advices received do not show that
a naval engagement took place, unless
the cornering and sinking of the tor
pedo-boat destroyer Bestrachni can be
so denominated.
The destroyers and four consorts
were outside scouting during the
night. The Bestrachni Jagged behind
and became lost in the mist. When
day broke she tried to creep in along
the coast, but was discovered, cut off,
overpowered and sunk, only five of
her crew escaping. The fate of the
other members of the crew is un-
known, although 1t is believed that
some of them may have been cap
