KILLED At CENTRAL.
Fatal Accident in the Cook Shaft on
Bobtail Hill.

Denver, July 3O.-A Central City dis
patch last night says: Robert M.
Vaughn, a graduate of the School OF
Mines. class of 1904 who was captain
and pitcher of the ball team represent
ing the school this year, and Martin
Swanson, well-known miner, were
killed in the Cook shaft on Bobtail hill
at 4:40 this afternoon as result of
mysterious accident.
Swanson was a machine man and
Vaughn was his helper. They were
coming off the day shift. The cause
Of the accident may never be dis.
closed as they were the only persons
in the cage. 1t is believed that in
some manner Swanson's left foot
caught between the side of the cage
and shaft and that he was dragged
between the timbers. 1t is thought
that Vaughn either attempted to
catch him or was caught by Swanson.
Both were crushed between the cage
and side Of the shaft, their bodies
falling to the bottom of the shaft, a
distance of over 600 feet.
This theory is supported by the
fact that Swanson's left boot was
crushed in such manner as to indi-
cate that 1t had caught between the
timbers and cage, and the heel was
torn off the boot. Both bodies we're
horribly mangled. the tops Of the
heads of the two men being torn off.
Brains were found sticking to the
sides of the shaft. Death must have
been instantaneous. Both bodies were
removed to an undertaking establish
| ment in this city and an inquest will
be neld tomorrow afternoon by Coro-
F., ner Asquith in an effort to ascertain
the cause Of the accident.

Won PLEAvE A TYRANT..
Responsible for Massacre Of Jews and
Oppression Of Firms.

Syracuse, N. Y. July 29.-The Post
Standard this morning says:
Former Ambassador to Germany
Andrew d. White, who was at St Pc
tersburg in 1924 as minister of the
United States to Russia, in discussing
Won Plehve and the assassination,
said:
Won Plehve's part in the horrible
massacres and plunder of the Jews,
men, women and children, at Kishineff,
caused him to be regarded with abhor.
renee by the whole world Even more
frightful has been his connection with
the destruction of the liberties OF Fin.
land. In my mind that is the most
wicked thing in the history of the last
two centuries There is no time to go
into 1t here further than to say that it
has turned the best, the most civilized.
the most educated and most loyal
province in the empire into land in
which the opposite of all these charac-
tiers is more highly developed than in
any part of the empire.
Other things done by him were also
calculated to bring more bitter hatred
against him.
He attempted to help his cause by
defense of his conduct toward Fin
land, which was published in an Ameri-
can magazine. But it must certainly
have failed to convince any thinking
man at all aware Of their circum.
stances.
During two summers lived mainly
in Finland, coming frequently to ST.
Petersburg. and the transition In pass
ing from the cultivation and civiliza-
ton OF Finland to the atmosphere of
Russia was the most depressing have
ever known.

ton.
Assassination always defeats its
purpose, and this would fear. be no

Des Moines, Sept. 20.-Clarence Harry

Pacific ocean en- route home, accom-
panied by a Filipino princess, to whom
he is married, and who was worth $780,
600 in her own right, besides being
heiress to the rich estate of her father,
an ex-chieftan in one Of the interior
provinces of Luzon.
Early's story reads more like 81 ro-
nance than truth. His father, John
Early, is we'll known barber of this
city. His mother, Mrs. Early, was a
white woman, of good repute. Their
children were all strikingly handsome.
and are exceptionally bright. Cla renee
enlisted in the Twenty-fourth Ur.
States infantry when the Spanish An
erican war broke out, and he served
four or five years in the Philippines.
1t was while he was stationed with
his company at small post far into
the heart of Luzon that he met, v1ooed
and Won his duslky bride. In the mean
time he has himself saved up nearly
$4,000 in cash in salary and bounties
allowed by the government and from
profits derived from the privilege of
selling certain articles in his regi-
ments, and he brings all this cash with
him. He is expected to reach San
Francisco about October 10.

The jury finds that Mayor Smith was
guilty of neglect of duty because he all
