THE GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP
Won by Travis From Blackwell, the
 SCotchman.

London, June 3.-Walter J. Travis final tie of thirty-siX holes for the amateur golf championship of Sand witch today in a high wind which greatly affected the driving. Travis won first in to and running down one of his long puts on the second green became two up. Blackwell miss ed a hard put for the third which was halved and he lost the fourth where Travis holed out by a long put. The American also won the fifth by getting down a 15 yards put and then missed short put for the sixth, where he sustained his first loss. The seventh was halved and Travis won the eighth where Blackwell missed a five-foot put. The Scotchman took the ninth hole where Travis drove into a bunker. The American was three up at the turn, his outward score approXima te- ly being thirty-five strokes.
 The American found the wind very difficult and lost the tenth. The next two were halved, and Blackwell ought to have reduced his deficit to one at the thirteenth. His putting, however, was bad and he lost the hole. There after he never looked like a drawing level and Travis finished the first round with four up. His score by strokes was eighty, Blackwell taking eightythree. Travis throughout gave the same remarkable display of put

Two of the Victims of the
 Blackberry Disaster
HAWKINS AND MASON KING
The Corpse of Kearney, One of the Rescue Party, Is Still Uncovered, Farther Down in the Depths of the Mine.

Prescott, June 3.-(SpeciaD-Wor has just been received here that the bodies of two of the victims of the Blackberry mine accident have been re- covered. Those of Perry Hawkins and Mason King wer found on the 250-foot level. The body of the third man has not been discovered.
 This distressing accident happened yesterday morning. About 3 o'clock in the morning fire broke out in the shaft house. Hawkins and King were in the mine and when it was seen that the efforts to put out the fire would be fruitless it was evident that the men were doomed.
 Assistance was procured from Me Cabe and as soon as the flames were eXtinguished the work of attempting a rescue of the men was begun.
 A party of three or four started down the shaft. One of them Frank Kearney was on the rope. The rope gave way, probably having been parti- ally burned and he fell down the shaft. At the time he fell he was be- lew the 200 foot level.
 On account of the poisonous gases from the shaft the work of rescue could not be proceeded with immedi- ately. There was no hope that either of the men could be saved for they could not live in the fumes which pre- vented the descent of the rescuers. Meanwhile assistance had arrived from McCabe and as the hours went 1 by men gathered from all over the country about the shaft lamenting that they were helpless to do anything for
 the unfortunate miners. By today the shaft had been cleared somewhat and a rescuing party went into the mine Hawkins and King must have quickly succumbed to the gases and smoke with which the shaft was filled. The
 body of Kearney will probably be found tonight.
 This is the accident to which the ru- nor afioat in Phoenix day-before yes | terday related. though it was under stood that it was cave-in. Alma Davis of this city, to whom a telegram | had been sent by the mother of King left yesterday morning fer Mayer
 King was well known in Phoenix hay ing lived here and at Tempe. Kearney
 the man who fell down the shaft, was formerly employed at the Congress
 mine and had just arrived at the Blackberry.

Arthur, and it is distinctly denied that Emperor Nicholas personally ordered such a moveemnt. It can be authori- tatively stated that the emperor's con- fidence in Kuropatkin is unshaken and. his majesty is not attempting to interfere with his plan of campaign.
 While no such army has been dis patched southward, it is natural that Kuropatkin will do all possible to har- rass General Oku's rear. The railroad has been kept open as far as Vafan- gow, twenty-five miles above Kin Chou, and it is not unlikely that when the Japanese have failed to push through a line across the head of Liao TunS peninsula, several thousand Russian troops may be sent down the railroad to impede Japanese operations and in fiict as much damage as possible, as these could easily be withdrawn by railroad if the enemy threatened to cut the line of communications above. Even the loss of a few regiments would be considered cheap if Japanese operations against Port Arthur were thereby retarded for any appreciable time.
 However, it is realized that with the Japanese occupation of Port Dalny and Talienwan as bases for landing siege guns, a small force above Kin Chou could accomplish but little and it is now more likely that it will be withdrawn, destroying the railroad as it retires northward. For strategic purposes KuropatlIin may be trying to make the Japanese believe that a movement southward is contemplated, in order to divert Kurokis attention in that direction.
 The impression is. being thrown out in certain. quarters here that General KuTOpatkin is about to take the of fensive and that an engagement with General Kuroki is imminent. But so far as can be ascertained, there is Lo solid foundation for this. It is un- questionable, however, that the rail- road is pouring troops into Manchuria at the rate of almost 2.5OO a day, and it will not be long at the present rate before the Russian commander-in- chief will be at least on equal terms with any force the enemy can bring against him.
 The general staff is keeping very dark about the whereabouts and the purpose of the Cossacks reported to be working around Gen. Kuroki's rear and the number of raiders operating in Korea.

ting which has gained him here the reputation of being the finest expon- ent in the world of a short game. He was never in the slightest danger throughout the tournament.
 The gallery numbered about 800 Although their sympathies were almost unanimously with Blackwell, they could not refrain from applause at Travis brilliant game and the Ameri- cans superiority over the Scotchman was admitted, coupled with expres- sions of regret that one of the older and more representative native golfers was not pitted against the visitor in the final.
 About a score of Americans follow ed the game, including competitors in the earliest stages of the champion ship.
 The Britons extracted some comfort from the fact that Travis was born in Australia. The best feeling was mani- fested on both sides, and the winner was heartily cheered. The only breach of the highest sportsmanship occurred during the afternoon, when a few spectators applauded Travis failure in putting a third hole. This offense was instantly missed by a ma jority of those present. As a general thing, the Americans brilliant game

es in the fighting at Kin Chou are o. ficially stated to be thirt yofficerS and 500 men killed or wounded. These fig ures were given in General Stoessel's report which has reached the war of flee. It was dated June 2. The method of it's transmission to Viceroy Alex jeff is not disclosed, but it is presumed that it was taken by Chinese junk to New Chwang. Evidently it was writ ten under stress, as it was hastily pen ciled.
 The account says the attack began May 21 and eliminated on the evening of May 26. The real fighting was prac- tically confined to May 9 and 26, the Japanese remaining quiet the two pre- vious days. General Stoessel reports that owing to the absence of support, of warships against the Japanese artil- lery fire at the time of the final as- sault on the Russian positions on Nan Shan hill during the evening of May PC, he, at o'clock, gave an order to blow up the guns and retire. The gen. eral expectation is that the order was only partially executed, as the enemy's flank movements necessitated prompt ness in retreat, which he says was car ried out with great coOlness, thus ac- counting for the smallness of the Rus sian losses. General Stoessel also says the enemy's losses must have run far into the thousands, the Japanese mor- tality in storming Mar Shan hill being frightful.
 General Stoessel pays 9 high tribute to the Russian troops and refers in terms of the warmest praise to the skill and courage displayed by General Fock, whom he recommends for St. Georges Cross. He does not mention that General Fock was wounded, of which the general staff assume that the report to this effect was untrue.
 As General Stoessel especially praises a regiment, which was not in General Fock's division, the general staff con cludes therefrom that five regiments, or about 12,O0O men, were engaged on the Russian side.

no absolute confirmation of the report that Japanese Minister Hayashi is to visit Japan soon, yet it is believed to be probable, as the Japanese govern ment undoubtedly wishes to consult him. Owing to his long diplomatic residence in Korea, Minister Hayashi is regarded as the most competent authority on the prevailing conditions in Seoul. The Japanese legation has already submitted to the home govern ment suggestions on the future policy to be pursued by Japan towards Korea.
 The Tokio cabinets present consid- eration of the peninsula problem, it is hoped, will shortly result in outlin- ing plans for future relations with Korea.

THE FORGE AT PORT ARTHUR.

Che, Foo, June 3.-A Chinese pass enger on junk which has arrived here from Dalny states he was at Port Arthur recently and that the Russian force, inclusive of sailors numbers 10000 men only. Four of the larger vessels of the Russian fleets are un- damaged but all the others are in the hands of repairers. The Japanese have restored order at Dalny and Talien- wan and have driven out the bandits. Dalny, according to the passengers s story, was not badly damaged by fire. Only the old town was destroyed.

FIGHTING EVERYWHERE.
The War Raging All Over Liao Tung
 Peninsula.

Mukden, June 3.-For two days past rumors have been current of severe fighting on Liao Tung peninsula. De tails are lacking but the fact that the fighting has been general throughout the peninsula is officially admitted. The Russians have pushed their out posts south to Wa Fang Tien, on the railroad, while the Japanese occupy the country from shores of the Korea Bay inland to the vicinity of Siu Yen. The fact that a Japanese army esti- mated to number 50,O00 men, is con centrated south of Kin Chou, is regard ed here as indicating the region where a decisive battle will be fought.

GEN. sToEssEL's REPORT.
The Russian Story of the Fighting at
 Kin Chou.

St. Petersburg, June 3.-Lieutenant General Ziliski transmits to the minis ter of war, under date of June ?, the report Of General Stoessel. dated Port Arthur. May 2S, as follows: After a battle lasting two days, I ordered our positions at Kin Chou to be evacuated, for we had opposed to us at least tnree divisions with 12O guns. The enemy's fire, particularly from four gunboats and six torpedo boats, annihilated our batteries, mounted at Kin Chou. The Fifth regiment, which was posted at this spot stood its ground heroically. The fire of this regiment, as well as that of our batteries and the gunboat Bobr, losses on the Japanese.
 "Our losses amounted to thirty officers and 500 men killed or wounded. We blew up or damaged all our guns which the Japanese had not put out of ac- tion. It would have been inexpedient to bring up siege artillery during the fierce fighting.
 "The battle on May 26 began at a.. m. and lasted until p m., when I or dered our position evacuated gradually. The explosion of a number of our mines and fougades was rendered impossible by the Japanese, who turned our posi- tion immediately. The Japanese ad- vanced through water up to their waists under the protection of their ships. The spirit of our troops was ex- cellent."

COLORADO BLESSED.

Denver. June 3.-A general storm has prevailed in Colorado for the past twenty-four hours. In the mountains snow fell to a depth varying from two inches to a foot. In the valleys and on the plains the precipation took the form of rain.
 The range and agricultural sections will profit immensely from moisture. In a small area of the fruit growing sections frost is feared tonight as a consequence of falling temperature. Railroads are experiencing no incon- venience from storm and trains are running on scheduled time.

 The large Scotch contingent was al- most ready to concede Travis super iority, even before the afternoon round was started. Blackwell after the match said to a representative of the Associated Press:

aul thry VIII Ne fepnbJcuns. Earlier iu Che evening. before the deliberations oi thc meeting had been diverted from the original in- tention Mr Fowler had called at- tention to the operation of what j.. known as the Bateman law in New Mexico. under the provisions of which the money raised from taxes is made to meet the bills If there is not sufficient money all claims { whether for salaries, sup plies or whaD are scaled down pro rata, until the money on hand will go around, and as 1t is parcelled out 1t liquidates the various claims in full. The gentleman stated that the law has worked we'll in practice in New Mexico, has reduced taxa tion and liquidated indebtedness.
 Mir. Ekey called attention to the fact that the pay of supervisors had been raised to $7O0 a year each, when during the first two years the county was in operation the law limited the compensation to $500; and he asserted that the latter figure Is ample remuneration for the service. Having served in the office when the salary was at the former figure the gentleman is acknowledged authority. He sug- gested that candidates for super visor should be pledged to accept a reduction.
 It was suggested that any reduc- tion desired would have to be ac- complished by a change in the law, and that a candidate for legislature should be nominated to go over to Phpnix pledged to exert every effort to secure enactment of bill returning salaries of all county officials to the rates specified by law at the time the county was or ganized. But when the question arose as to who should undertake to bell the cat, no one seemed to want the job. Mir. Herrera was suggested as suitable candidate for legislative honors, but he plainly acknowledged that he didn't wish to incur the hatreds and enmities he would in working in the legislature for enactment ol such a law.
 MT. 0. K. Franklin of Nogales, W. II. Barnett of Patagonia, were mentioned as suitable candidates for supervisors. and Con O'Keefe was mentioned as candidate for treasurer.
 But the hour was late, the peo- pie were tired, and no one cared te give further attention, so adjourn ment was had. When all was over the assertion was frequently heard on the street that nothing had been aecomplished;" but from TIE OASIS point of view there was 3 good deal accomplished and the future will result to the benefit and credit of the republican party ii Santa Cruz county. In under taking a reform of the county ad. ministration 1t is essaying a great deal: but the work is necessary and the party will find way.
