CLEVELAND MINER STRUCK
BY TRAIN NEAR CLIFFLAND

train crew knew nothing of the acei-
dent and the train did not stop.
Tague called some section men to
his assistance and they did what
they could for the injured man. They
started to take him to Eldon but met
a switch engine en- route to Ottumwa.
DR.. w. G.. Brownfield was with the
engine and rendered what medical aid
was possible and the injured man was
brought to Ottumwa and removed to
the Ottumwa hospital in the ambu-
lance. 1t was found that his skull was
badly fractured near the left ear and
DR.. A. O. Williams assisted by the
other hospital physicians performed
the necessary operation. Owing to the
nature of Mr.. SINNERS injuries it is
thought that there is but little chance
for his recovery. Mr.. Tague was not
injured.

Washington. D. O., May 12.- Sir
Chentung Liang-Cheng, the Chinese
minister, has gotten himself into hot
water with the department of com.
merce and labor through what is re.
garded by immigration officials as a
too jealous effort to protect his coun.
trymen from harsh treatment under
the Chinese exclusion law.
The department has just obtained a
copy of circular of instructions sent
by the minister to Chinese consular Of
fees throughout the country in which
he describes minutely the rights OF
Chinese subjects under the treaty ex
isting between his governm ent and the
United States and directs that in case
they are .overriddden by American off
cials report with sworn statements
of witnesses shall be forwarded to
him. In other words, China has
reached the point where she proposes
to make the United States pay her an

indemnity if any of her subjects can
prove they have been maltreated.
The Chinese exclusion question has
always been delicate one for the
Chinese legation. WI Tingfang was
constantly on the verge of being given
his passports because of his too free
criticism of this government in con-
nection with the enforcement of the
law, and Sir Chentung Liang- -Cheng
may have placed himself in the same
perilous position if what officials of
the department of commerce and labor
said yesterday is to be believed.
To add to the disgruntled feelings
of these officials there came yesterday
an announcement from Shanghai that
the merchants of the guild of China
propose to boycott American goods I'M
til the exclusion law is repealed. The
significance of this announcement can
be appreciated when it is known that
the merchants guild has ramifications
Throughout the Chinese empire and ex-
ercises an influence upon trade which
cannot be over estimated.

L
Ernest Skinner, coal miner from

this morning, was struck on the head
by swinging door Of one of the cars
of a passing freight train and probably
fatally injured. He was brought to
the Ottumwa hospital for treatment
and the attending physicians state
that there is little hope for his recov-
cry
e. B. Tague, who was with Mr.. Skin
ner at the time of the accident states
that they were both coal miners and
had been to Laddsdale yesterday to Sc
cure work. Failing in this they started
! to walk to Rutledge. While walking
along the Rock Island track between
Eldon and Cliffland about 7:30 this
morning they were overtaken by a
| freight train, west bound, and stepped
out of the way to let it pass. They
were standing at the end of a small
bridge and did not notice the loose
door Of the freight car The door
struck Mr. Skinner on the side of the

ST. Petersburg, May 12 The ad-
miralty declines to divulge any infor-
nation about the ships of the Vladi-
vostok division, which are supposed to
be off the coast of Japan, but the i'm
preston prevails In naval circles that
acting under instructions of Rojest-
vensky they have passed through
Tsugaru Straits into the Pacific on
the reconnaissance to ascertain if the
passage is free of mines and feasible
for Rojestvensky's squadron and also
to threaten Japanese commerce. All
the Russian naval divisions now in the
far east are acting under Rojestven-
sky's orders.
Paris, May 12.-France has replied
officially to Japan's complaint by deny
ing emphatically that any aid has been
extended to the Russian fleet that
would not have been extended to the
Japanese fleet under similar circum-
stances. The reply says in SO many
words that If Togo had sailed to meet
his enemy in the Red sea he would
have enjoyed every privilege at French
| ports on the way that was extended
to Rojestvensky.

Frances argument is explained from
the time of Minister Motono's first pro-
test on the occasion of the stop at
Cherbourg of some Russian vessels.
