Denver, July S.-Cloudbursts ami
lightning did considerable damage in
this section of the state today In
Denver a wall of water ten feet high
came down a dry creek in the western
part of the city, carrying away the
street bridges and damaging the
bridge of the Denver Lakewood an1
Golden railroad.
Two boys, thirteen years old, fishing
under bridge, were rescued with a
great difficulty. In Boulder, wall of
water. six feet high, came out of sun

Pearl street and other streets in that
city. A mile of Sunshine railroad was
destroyed and considerable damage
was done in the city.
Near Florence, a cloudburst in Oak

CLASS
MATTER IN
THE MAILS
POSTAL REVENUES SUFFER
FROM ITS UNDUE EXPANSION
Congressional Commission to Inquire
Whether Receipts Cannot be Made
Commensurate With Services.

Washington, July 8.-Henry II
Glauste, secretary of the commission
to inquire into and report to congress
Its conclusions concerning the laws re-
latiVe to second class mail matter to-
day Issued the announcement that the
first session of the commission will be
held at the Holland house in New
York, October l next. The announce
ment in part is as follows:
"The report of the postmaster gen.
eral for the fiscal year ended June 80,
1905, shows that the cost of main
tanning the entire postal service for
that year was approximately $167,-
900, 900, and that the revenue from
all sources was approximately $153,-
000, 900. Second class matter consti-
tuted approximately twothirds of the
matter handled, while 1t yields but
S6.1S6,467 or about one twenty-fourth
of the revenue derived from the pos
tai service. Not only has the postal
revenue suffered by reason of the un-
due expansion of this class of matter
as compared with other classes. but
in dealing with the matter itself, the
postal service Is hampered at every
step by the difficulties and perlexitles
of its administration"
The system as a whole. the report
says, lacks uniformity. and Is confus-
ing to the publishers and the officials
alike. The report says the inquiry
will be especially directed toward de-
termining whether the revenue from
second class mail matter should not be
made commensurate with the actual
cost of the service rendered in hand
ling 1t, II not, what limitations should
be placed upon matter which may
properly be embraced in that class.

Five Stage Coaches Held
Up In One Day
TOURISTS IN YOSEMITE VALLEY
ARE RELIEVED OF vALUABLES
Lone Man With Mask and Gun
Makes Good Escape After a
Daring Series Of Robberies.

Wawona, Cal, July S.-Five Yosc-
mite valley stages were held up yes
terday afternoon by a lone highway
man who obtained a considerable
amount of money and jewelry from
the passengers. The conveyances were
halted in rapid succession at a curve
in the road near Apwanee, at the
Identical spot whore lone bandit,
operating a year ago, relieved several
wealthy tourists of their valuables.
The stages were travelling sufficiently
far apart to avoid each others dust
and when the first vehicle reached tho
turn in the road, the highwayman
whose features were completely hid
den by a duster thrown over his head,
stepped out, pointed his gun at the
driver and commanded him to halt.
Some of the women passengers
screamed, but others began without
delay to disgorge their valuables The
highwayman directed all the passen-
gers to throw out their money ana
jewelry, and when the order met with
compliance, directed the driver to
move on ahead. The second stage ar
rived within a few minutes, and the
driver and passengers suffered a SINH
lar experience. The process was re-
peated until all five had been halted
and robbed, when the bandit disap-
peared in the brush.

BLAZING OIL
ENDANGERS
SHIPPING

Singapore. July S.-The British
oil steamer Indrani, Captain Will
Jams. from New York to Shanghai,
with 800 drums of naphtha and 35,-
900 cases of oil on board, caught fire
this afternoon just east of this har-
bor Many drums were thrown over
board and the fire was eventually
put out.
The ship continued her voyage.
The bursting of one of the drums
caused the fire. The Chinese crew
refused TO assist in the work Of
throwing the burning drums over
board and clambered into lighters.
The captain and the white officers Of
the Indrani heaved the flaming drums
into the sea and managed to save the
ship, whose iron deck prevented a
general conhagration.
The floating drums of naphtha,
blazing furiously, drifted with the
tide into Singapore harbor and sew
eral warships at anchor and the ship
ping at the wharves were in dam
ger until the set of the tide carried
the drums southward, where they
gradually burned themselves out.

SANTA f FAST
TRAIN IN THE
D| I c 4
FIREMAN ON LIMITED
KILLED NEAR FLAGSTAFF
Brave Engineer Badly ScaIded Saves
Lives Of Passengers By
Sticking to Post,
Special to the Morning Journal.

OpeCldl u lHe MOIIlHS Juull
Winsow, Ariz., July S.--The east
bound California limited on the Santa
Fe was wrecked about o'clock this
afternoon at Agassiz, three miles west
of Flagstaff. Fireman Ed Pillsbury
was killed outright, and Engineer
Frank Goldsworthy received severe
scalds below the knees which while
causing excruciating pain at the time,
are not considered serious. That the
engineer escaped with his life Is ac-
counted remarkable. 1t Is thought the
death of the unfortunate fireman was
instantaneous.
The cause of the wreck has not yet
been definitely ascertained. The sup
position is that the pony trucks of the
engine jumped the track while the
train was rounding sharp curve on
steep grade. The train which ordi-
narily is the fastest on the Santa Fe
system, was a few minutes late, caus-
ed by slight delay at Supai, three
miles west of williams, the trucks
having left the track there, the train
being stopped before any damage was
done. The limited was probably
making about fifty miles an hour
when 1t hit the curve and the pony
trucks climbed the rails. The locomo-
tive and the composite car behind IL
left the track and the engine turned
over, pinnlng the fireman under the
wreckage and scalding and crushing
him to death. No one beside the en-
gine crew received any injuries what
ever, and aside from a severe jolt or
two, the passengers were undisturbed.
The wrecking crew left Winslow inn
mediately and the body Of the dead
fireman, accompanied by the injured
engineer. was brought in here at 3
o'clock this afternoon.

Hungry Peasants Wage
War on CSar,s Troops
In Russian Provinces
Many Killed and Wounded in Desperate
Attacks on Military

st. Petersburg. July S.-The first
paragraph of the proposed agrarian
law, viz; the augmentation of the
lands of the peasants by the eXpro-
priation of all state and crown do
mains and the church and monastery
lands, has been accepted by the COM
mission of the lower house with prac-
tical unanimity.
The commissioners have not locked
horns over the mode of expropria-
ton and the method of the disposal
of private estates and the end is not
yet in sight.
The correspondent of the Associat-
ed Press has just completed a tour
of the provinces of Samara and Sara
tov. He reports that the drouth is
finally broken but that the rains have
come too late to save the crops and
help the peasants, who are in a pit
liable condition. Their cattle have
either been sold or are starving IN
the wilds.
The government relief granaries
were completely emptied during the
famine of last year. The present
agrarian disorders, which can be
expected to grow worse, are due
largely to the necessity of the peas
ants selling food to save from starva-
tion themselves and the remainder of
their cattle. These disorders have
reached the highest pitch in the
province of Vorontzh, where the
troops and Cossacks, although in con-
siderable force, are practically help
less and on the defensive.
Many peasants have been killed or
wounded in desperate attacks on the
military patrols and the rural guards.
According to a telegram received here
from Tambov, peasants on the estate
of the Princess Biaritinsky attacked
a commissary and posse of rural po-
lice. The commissary and four po-

licemen were seriously wounded. In
another section of the province or
Tambov a body of peasants armed
with pitchforks and spades resisted
a squadron of Dragons, and because
of this resistance the troops fired,
killing three peasants and wounding
many others.
At Kedabry, southeast of Tihis, a
hand-to-hand fight has occurred be-
tween Cossacks and an armed band OF
peasants, with the result that seven
men were killed on both sides.
There has been a fatal encounter
at Krasnopolsk, in the province of
Podolia, between rich peasants and
poor peasants. The poor men were in
censed because the rich men had sent

ing against the proposed distribution
of land
In the fighting one of the wealthy
peasants killed four and seriously
wounded several of the poorer men.
There have been grave disorders on
the estate of Minister of Agriculture
Stichinisky, in lula province.
The representative of the Associat-
ed Press at Rostov reports that crop
conditions in Kuban and the Don dis
tricts are above the average Agra
rian disorders among the Cossack
agricultural population are not eX-
pected, although there has been some
fermcnt on account of the military
levies having to do police duty.

of its bearing on the trial of the Of
ffcials of the Western Federation of
Miners, has just been handed down
by the supreme court in the case of

court overruled the motion. but the
supreme court holds that Record

would bring discredit upon the judi
ciary of the state to permit a trial be-
fore the present Judge" and orders
that another judge be called in
The attorneys for Meyer, Haywood
and Pettibone have already filed a
motion for a change of venue from
Canyon county, alleging, among other
things, that the presiding judge is
biased against the defendants. The
statute law makes no provision for a
change of venue on this ground and
the late utterance of the supreme
court will be a point in favor of the
defendants if their claim of bias can
be established.

Engineer Goldsworthy had both legs
scalded, and was also Injured about
the chest. No passengers were in
jured.
The accident was caused by one OF
the front trucks of the engine leav-
ing the track. That the fatality list
is so small is due to the presence of
mind of Engineer Goldsworthy who
applied the brakes and remained at
his post until the engine started to
turn over. Then he jumped, escaping
injury. The engine turned over on Its
left side. and the composite car and
the dining car slipped over the crest
OF the embankment. Three Pullmans
were left standing on the track.
