SLAUGHTER BY PIRATES.
Massacre Of $50 Natives Is Re-
ported from the Siberian
Coast.

San Francisco, June 19.-News of a
terrible massacre of $50 natives on the
Siberian coast has been received here
in letter from Petropaulovski on the
coast of Kamchatka. A. Morogravlenof
has written to his brother, resident OF
this city, that in the early part Of the
year the natives in one of the small
settlements down the coast, which he
does not name, observed a yacht or
schooner drop anchor in the harbor,
and her coming was hailed with cries
of rejoicing. on the vessel came a
number of small boats. The natives
could see the crew piling what they
thought were supplies into the smaller
craft. Then the men pulled for the
shore. During that or the next day
there was heard the firing of arms and
later on smoke and fire were observed.
This led to Investigation from Petro-
paulovski and other towns on the coast
and horrible tale of pillage and mas
sacre was brought to light. About the
streets of the settlement, writes Moro
gravlenof, were strewn the bodies of
$50 of the Inhabitants; shot and cut to
pieces by the pirates, who, under the
pretense of friendship, had gained a
landing on the coast. Robbery was
their only motive, for every hut had
been ransacked and anything of mar
ketable value was taken. Who the ma
RAIDERS were those who managed to
make their escape could not say.

HIGH OFFICIALS RESIGN.
Grand Duke Alexis and Admiral Avel-
Ian, of Russian Navy, -.
Quit Office.

st. Petersburg, June 16.-The SEN
sational announcement was made
shortly before midnight that Grand
Duke Alexis, the high admiral, who is
an uncle of the emperor, and Admiral
Avellan, head of the Russian admiral
ty department, had resigned. This an
nouncement was followed a few min
utes later by an imperial rescript, re-
lieving the grand duke Of the supreme
direction of the navy, which hex had
held since the days of the emperor's
father, Alexander III, when Russia re-
solved to enter the lists as first-class
sea power, and to build up a great
navy, the remnants of which were de-
stroyed in the battle OF the Sea of
Japan. s@
Although from time to time since the
war began there have been rumors
that the grand duke would retire. on
account of the savage criticism, not to
use harsher terms, directed against the
administration of the navy especially
in the construction Of ships, the an
nouncement of his resignation came
as surprise.

GOMEZ IS DEAD.
Collapse Follows Gallant Struggle
for Life, on the Part Of the
AGED Warrior.

Havana, Cuba, June 19.-Maximo
Gomez died at six o'clock Saturday
night. Death came peacefully, after a
long illness. Gen. Gomez bore up brave
ly to the last and his struggle against
the illness which at last overcame him
was typical of the man who so long
fought against great odds. He will be
given funeral with national honors.
In May last Gen. Gomez underwent an
operation at Santiago, Cuba, as the re-
suit of the spread of gangrene in an
abscess on his hand. For time his
life was despaired of, but the general
recovered sufficiently to be moved to
his home in Havana June Z. Until
Thursday morning he showed some
signs of improvement and hopes were
entertained that the end might be post
poned for a considerable period. But
from that time on the patient failed
until the end came.

She can look openly into every mir

\ RECENT INVENTIONS.

A new and ingenious pocket cal
culator, automatic IN its action, has
been designed by German inventor.
The device comprises a small case
about six inches In length made Of
steel and aluminium. There is key
board of nine figures corresponding to
the numerals and 1t Is additionally
provided with q small spring for the
supply of the tens and hundreds.
There is also q small DIAL and by
pressing the requisite keys the total
amount is recorded upon the dial.
l. The latest improvement in the way
Of a screwdriver provides for a mon
key-wrench attachment for use when,
powerful pressure must be brought to
bear where it Ia desired to remove
screws which have become securely
imbedded in their places by means of
rust or other reasons, This new i'm
plement is made with square shank
OF rather stout proportions, and this
enables the workman to make use of
a monkey-wrench in conjunction with
the screwdriver, and thus the most
firmly imbedded screw may be easily
dislodged. IS. ia
Richard Strut, a son of Lord Ray
leigh, has invented clock which, no
says. will run for 1000 years. Tho
motive power is small piece of gold
leaf, which is electrified by means OF
q very small quantity Of radium salt.
The gold leaf bends away from the
metal substance and keeps moving
under this influence until it touches
the side of the containing vessel. At
the moment of contact it loses its cleo
trical charge and then springs back
and is again electrified, and the process
Is repeated. It is thought that thor
oughly reliable clock could be made
with the use of radium salt for 81 900.

GRAFT SECRETS Barred.
Startling Stories Told by John q. Dris-
coll Of Money Paid to
End Strike. %@E&f.f

Chicago, June l4.-JOQn ~. lDf1SCOll
admitted on Tuesday that when he was
labor dictator in Chicago he acted as 60
between for various employers and paid
$4,000 to labor officials to avert or set
tie 400 strikes. Driscoll said he was
willing to go before the grand jury with
check books to show to whom the graft
went. He said he received $500 from
the democratic leaders in 1908 for Undue
ing labor leaders to urge Clarence s.
barrow to withdraw from candidacy for
the mayoralty nomination. Driscoll, it
was said, paid 5000 to Pat Mcmahon for
the latter's efforts in bringing about
union delivery of coal to the Chicago
City railway power houses. Mcmahon
slapped Driscoll and Shea in the face
with the roll of bills and refused to d.
vide with Shea. Shea denied Driscoll's
statements, asking why he should accept
part of 5000 when he might have had
$4,000.

Friday heard remarkable story con-
Meeting John G. Driscoll with the with
drawal of Clarence S. barrow from the

how certain of the labor chiefs were paid
$50 each to sign telegram to Mr.. OAR
row, then in Philadelphia, asking, him to
give up his ambition to be mayor of Chi
cago. I'VE want you for judge" the tel
egram explained. Afterward, it is
charged, Driscoll boosted that he had
received the $4,000, but that it had re-
quired only 81, 500 to do the business with
cheap labor leaders.

Twenty-Five Men Are Killed, and

Injured.

Baltimore, Nd, June 19.-Twenty-
five men were killed and nearly a score
injured in train wreck on the West.
ern Maryland railroad, near this city,
Saturday evening. The death list is
likely to be increased from among
those who were grievously mangled.
All the dead were employees of the rail-
road, returning to their homes in the
small towns along the railroad to spend
Sunday. They had been at work re-
pairing the damage done to the road
bed ten days >ago by a minor freight
wreck at Mount Hope station, near this
city.
Met on a Curve.
In the neighborhood of Patapsco sta
ton, about eight miles from Westmin-
ster, the Western Maryland has many
curves, and that just west of the bridge
crossing the Patapsco river is a sharp
one. An extra freight, made up of
heavy coal and provision cars, was
running east. 1t should have taken q
siding to allow No. S to pass. Such
were the orders. Why they were dis
regarded will never be known, for
those who should have seen that they
were obeyed are dead. On the curve
just west of the bridge they came to-
gether with terrific force, the three en-
gines being piled one upon another,
fortunately in such manner that suf-
ficient steam connections were broken
to relieve the boilers and thus prevent
the further horror of one or more ex-
plosions.
A Scene Of Horror.
In an instant the peaceful country
was changed into the likeness of a
shambles. Along the tracks on both
sides were scattered dead and fright
fully mangled men, these latter more
fortunate than those who had been in
the baggage car and on the engines,
for most of them were still piniOned in
the wreckage out of the immediate
reach of helping hands. Heartrending
shrieks from the injured quickly
brought to the scene the inhabitants of
all the farmhouses within a considera-
bic radius, and these Immediately set
to work to do what they could to ease
the suffering. Farmers wives and
daughters made bandages of their
clothing and household linen and work
