WILL DRILL
THE CHINESE
Two American Officers
Enter Imperial
Service.

Col. Henry wygant. the popular
commander of the troops aboard the
transport Sheridan, lost two of his of
ficers in the Philippines. That is, both
resigned from the service to enter that
of the Chinese Imperial Army. Ac-
cording to news received yesterday
from Manila both officers, who were
lieutenants, are to receive high rank
in return for their services in instilling
the leaven of western military ideas
into the antiquated military system of
the Celestial empire. The two officers
are First Lieutenant Henry l. Harris
and Second Lieutenant Morton Russell.
1t is said that Lieut.. Harris has al
ready received his appointment as
Colonel in the Chinese army, Russell
lively, salaries of $1,000 and $4,000 per
year in gold. The two officers will
probably be installed as instructors at
Peking.
Lieutenants Harris and Russell are
not the first officers who have left the
service of the United States during the
past few months for larger pay and
opportunities for adventure beneath the
flag of China. Although stories of of
ficerS for. the Chinese army haiDc ra-
cruited in Manila have been in cir
culalion on several different occa sions
during the past three years, it has only
been within the past three months that
such recruiting has been done, for the
past two years at least. The work has
been done with care and the selection
of officers has been made only from
men possessing an excellent reputation
as officers. To these high pay has been
offered, and it is known that tentative
proposals have been made to number
of officers stationed here
Lieutenant Harris bears the reputa-
tion of being one of the bravest and
in the service. He was twice wounded
in Mindanao and is said to be an ex-
cellent tactician. He is son of Lieut.
enant- Colonel Harris, retired, and en-
tered West Point as a cadet in 1894
He was appointed a second lieutenant
in the 20th Infantry in 1899 and was
promoted to his first Iieutenancy the
following year.
Lieutenant Russell, who is the son
Of a wealthy shoe manufacturer of Bos- |
ton, Massachusetts, was appointed a |
second lieutenant October II, 1902. He |
was previously the sergeant major of |
he 18th Infantry. He bears an excel |
ent reputation as an officer.

scratches.
So frightened was Shields that he
lay for several minutes with his eyes

not injured he opened his eyes and saw
the PROSTATE form of Miller.
Hastily arising to his feet he lifted
Miller and carried him to the office of
the company where he was revived and
sent to the receiving hospital
An examination revealed that Miller
was suffering from slight cut on the
head and a slight shock.

was in the act of pushing the truck
from the elevator when Shields, who is
a driver for the company, fell.

HUNGARIAN ARMY Is
INVITED TO MUTINY
LEADER ASKS ITS
ASSISTANCE
Publishes Open Letter That All Native
Born Officers Should Resign and
Soldiers Refuse to Obey Orders
Issued In German Language
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
BUDAPEST, Hungary, Oct. q
Deputy Lengyal, leader of the radical
wing of the coalition party, wants to
inaugurate a mutiny of all the Hun
garians in the Austro- Hungarian army
in support of the coalition demands.
M. Lengyal in an open letter pub
lished today, calls on all the Hungarian
army to lend their aid in supporting the
nations desires. ALI Hungarian born
officers of the reserve and all non-com-
missioned officers, he contends, ought
to resign, while the Hungarian soldiers
henceforth should refuse to obey orders
issued in the erman language. The
deputy also proposes special boycott
of German and Austrian officers by the
Magyar people. The punishment of the
mutinous troops. he points out. is inn
possible, as there would not be men
enough left in the army to deal with
the Hungarian protestors.
The idea is current here tonight that
the political crisis is undergoing an i'm
portant development. Minister of the
Interior Kritoffy, who originated the
plan to defeat the coalition by the in.
PRODUCTION of measures for universal
suffrage, has gone to Vienna with
Premier Fe1ervary and Minister of JUS
tice Lanyi for an audience of the king
emperor tomorrow, and this has given
rise to a1report that his majesty is
ready to abandon his resistance to suf-
rage reform.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Some 1000 Jews
were attacked on the Pike street re-

yesterday by two score Italians and
Irish laborers. They were pelted with

principally of the recitation of prayer.

EARTH CRUST SINKS 30 FEET
Three Acres of Solari Ranch Land
Recedes--Great CreVice Is
Discovered
Special to The Her aid.

opeCIdi 10 lHe f1eI alQ
VENTURA, Oct. 2.-People in the
vicinity of Springvihe are greatly agi-
tated over a strange occurrence on the
Solari ranch. A piece of land connpris-
ing some three acres has sunk to n
depth of about thirty feet.
The fall was not sudden, but has been
going on for some time. At the edge of
the settled portion is a large crevice in
the earth which appears to be without
bottom. A clod or rock dropped into
the crack will echo for some time, until
finally it passes out of hearing.
About two years ago a piece of land
in the same locality settled but not to
such a depth.
Various theories are advanced, but the
one most generally accepted as reason
able seems to be that the subsistence
is due to the fact that many artesian
wells have been sunk in the valley be-
low and that drawing off so much
water has formed cavity, thus allow
ing the land to settle.
Those who have dug wells In the
locality testify to having run across
queer formations. In one we'll salt
water was found, in another soft water
was obtained, and IN another, at a
depth of nine feet, large bed of quick
sand was found. The quantity was so
great that the we'll was abandoned.

You are to heart a villain, a MUIR
derer, swindler and a thief and am
sorry that 1 cannot send you to the
electro chair.

mans face and passed ON. When OUT
side the building he was mobbed by a
crowd of men, many of whom had
once been his neighbors, but who then

bered fully 500, and the deputies who
guarded Carlton, being handcuffed to

Two Boys Concerned, the
Latter Captured

PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. IA special
to the Oregonian from Seattle, Wash,
says that the Great Northern Overland
train leaving Seattle at 8:20 last night
was held up and the baggage and ex-
press car dynamited half mile east
of mile post 10, about five miles from
Ballard at 8:45 p. m. 1t was IL o'clock
before the train pulled into Edmonds,
and the most meager reports were sent
to the local office.
Three men are known to have done
the work. Two boys, who got on the
blind baggage here as soon as the
holdup began, entered the passenger
coaches and began holding UP the pas
sengers. They were captured. They
say two of the men were on the blind
baggage when they got on and the
third got ON at Ballard. All were we'll
dressed, with rain coats and slouch
hats.
So far as reported no one has been
killed. but it is reported that Charles
Anderson, express messenger. is
slightly injured. Manager Waring of
the Great Northern Express company
said last night that he did not know
what the safe contained but believed
it was only small sum. After secur-
ing the contents of the safe the three
men started off in an easterly direction.
1t is believed other members of the
gang are ahead of the scene of the
hold-up and that the robbers Joined
them.
The train was tagged near the brick
yard, and, as the engineer slowed up,
two men with rain coats climbed over
the tender and presented revolvers to
his head. When the train stopped the
baggage and express car was un-
coupled by one of the robbers and the
engineer instructed to pull ahead. This
he did for several hundred yards and
was then again commanded to stop
Two of the robbers Jumped off. making
the engineer and fireman do the same,
and all marched to the baggage car
door. The messenger was commanded
to open the door and refusing, an extra
heavy charge of dynamite was placed
against 1t and exploded. The explosion
tore the car almost to pieces. The safe
was then dynamited. The train was
delayed two hours and half and then
pulled into Edmonds, making a brief
report before proceeding to Everett
The two boys claim they never met
the hold-ups until they got on the train
and are in no.way connected with their
work. The idea to hold up the passen-
gers occurred to them after the explo-
sion. Sheriff Smith has started out
with a posse.

city limits Of Denver.
A. H. Guthiel, county judge. hauled
the mayor, marshal and members of
the town board before him this morning
and lectured them for their alleged
failure to enforce ordinances against
gambling and Sunday liquor selling.
Following this he ordered the sheriff
and marshal to gather up the slot ma

they could find only one Judge Guthiel
deputized two men to arrest them for
contempt.
In the meantime both the sheriff and
