Another train of refugees passed
through Laramie shortly before the
noon hour today, the train being met
at the depot by hundreds of citizens
who has been apprised of the coming of
the train. and had gathered together a
goodly supply of provisions to succor
the u~nfortunates with.
The relief committee, Messrs.
Gramm, Bode and Spicer, received a
telegram last night informing them
that another train of refugees would
pass through Laramie this morning and
asking that the citizens provide food
and clothing for them. The telegram
was read at the cathedral fair last
night and a number of citizens about
town apprised of the coming. The an
~nouncement brought forth another very
generous response, ample food being
supplied and a considerable amount of
clothing distributed among the needy.
Largely Women and Children.
The train today was made of ten
coaches, a baggage a and caboose.
The majority of the passengers We're
women and children n there could
be no question that the majority were
needy and highly appreciative of the
efforts of the people of Laramie to re-
lieve their wants. There were no cases
of sickness noted, but many of the wo-
men and children were but scantly clad
and the clothing taken to the depot
proved very acceptable.
The ladies of the city took a very &C
tive part and ven after supplying the
wholesome lunches also assistd in dis
tributing them through the train and
seeing 10 it that no one vent uncared
for. The mems waiting room at the
depot had peer converted into a supply
depot and from this point the edibles
were carried to the train.
Tell of the Disaster.
MANY of the passengers, after having
satisfied their hunger, talked freely
with people on the platform. One
man, whose appearance and actions
would indicate that he is reliable and
conscientious, made some statements
which are hard to credit, though it is
evident that there was no intention on
his part to overdraw the situation. He
was asked why so many men were
leaving there now that the disaster was
over and lucrative employment was as
sured to all who remained. He said
that he would answer for himself by
saying that he valued his life too highly
TO chance it for a few dollars gain.
He had personally counted forty-two
distinct shocks of varying severity
from the time of the first n a little
more than a week ago up to last
Wednesday, the time when he left San
Francisco accompanied by his wife and
children. He stated that it was abso
lutely impossible for a person at this
distance to conceive the situation thai
exists there. When one has gazed up
on a three-story building which has
literally been swallowd up by the eartf

REGARDING STORIES OF MAS
/ SACRE IN JoLO.

Washington. March 21.-Secretary
Taft has received the following cable,
gram from Governor General Ide, at
Manila, relative to the Mount Dajo
fight:
Newspaper reports from Manila an
nouncing wanton slaughter of women
and children at Mount Dajo extremely
sensational and in all essentials false.
The situation occupied by the Moro
outlaws upon the crater of the volcano,
1900 feet high, was exceedingly diff
cult and required great display of hero
ism on the yart of the army, navy and
Filipino and Moro constabulary, who
rendered most valuable service. Some
women and children were killed or
wounded by preliminary Smelling at a
distance.
1.-The Moros we're outlaws and fanat-
les and refused to surrender to the
last, attempting repeatedly to murder
our forces who we're rescuing wounded
Moros. There was no killing of any
one except such as was indispensable
to end an intolerable situation. Attack
not ordered until every resource look
ing to possible adjustment exhausted"
