THREE MEN KILLED.
Floor In Kodak Works Gives Way ana
 Kills and Injures Several.

Rochester. November 21.-Three men were killed today in an accident at the Eastman Kodak Park works. Eight were seriously injured and six were slightly hurt. One of the deau has been identified as John Burns of land of Auburn.
 The men were at work on scaffold near the top of two-story building, one of eight in course of erection A nasty examination of the wreck re- vealed that the probable cause of the accident was the removal of the sup ports of the steel flooring before the concrete had properly set. When the top floor gave way about twenty men were hurled into the debris. falling about forty feet.

Did Not Sust ect Soldiers.

Continuing, General Darlington reports: ''No abundantly accurate veriication of rifles and men of the battalion was made on the night of August 13 in time to ae- count for the rifles and men at the be- ginning of the firing or upon it's conclu- sion. The fault is explained as follows:
 'The commanding officer and his as sstants when the alarm was sounded and they heard the firing, assumed that 1t came from the city of Brownville. and that the guns were in the hands of civil ians: in other words that the garrison was being fired into from the outside by civilians. It does not appear to have oc- cured to any of them that certain en- listed men of the Twenty-ffth infantry had secured possession of rifles and were committing the crime of firing into houses and upon the citizens of Brownsville until the Mayor of the city came to the garri- son and informed the commanding officer. Major Penrose. that one man had been killed and another injured by his sol- diers"

Taft Issues Statement.

"A telegram was received from the President at II o'clock today. after the previous statement was given out at the war department in which he declined to suspend the discharge unless there are new facts of such importance as to war rant cabling him. He states that the ac- ton was taken after due deliberation, and that the only matter to which he can pay heed is the presentation of facts showing ihe official reports to be in whole or ih part untrue, or clearly exellpating some individual. If any such facts later appear he can act as he deems advisable, but thus far nothing has been introduced 10 warrant the suspension of the order, and he directs that it be executed"
 Secretary Taft says immediate steps will be made to recruit eolored soldiers to re- place the men discharged. The members of three companies who were on furlough at the time of the Brownsville affair and three members who are to be tried by court-martial, will not be mustered out.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-11-22

In his summary of reports made by the other officers and of his own efforts to get information from the soldires, Brig adler General Darlington declares that every means of getting evidence of the shooting was then exhausted All the men of the three companies were talked with individually, and all, he says, evaded questions. and even refused to discuss the events at Brownsville which were known to have engaged the negroes before the riot.
 "The secretive nature of the race where crimes are charged to members of their color is well known" said General Gar lington. "Under such circumstances, self preservation or self-interest is the only means by which the casket of their minds can be pried open. Acting up this. and the history and record of the regiment to which they belong. the part played by the old soldiers in this record were point ed out and enlarged upon. The odium and disgrace to the battalion and it's in- dividual members by this crime were in- dicated The future effect upon the in- dividuals and upon the ballalion as a whole were referred to. and finally the concern of the President of the United States in the matter, his desires and the desires of the war department to separate the innocent from the guilty were ex- plained but witt effect"

President Castro Would Punis French Cable Company
 Through Spite

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12-Although the present breach of diplomatic re- iations between France and Venczue- la is technically chargeable against the personality of NJ. Taigny, the French charge d'aiIaires at Caracas, the real issue, as understood here, is the attack by President Castro upon the properties and franchises of the French cable company.
 The President has asserted that the cable company lent active assistance to the Matos rebellion. Therefore he began proceedings in the Venezuelan courts against the company on that score and also complained that tho company had violated the terms of its concession in not laying certain coast lines of cable and especially in crossing the island of SantO Domingo with land wires subject to frequent in- terrnption in times of rebellion on that island
 The courts sustained the president g view, and in fact practically took pos session of the companys offices at

(From Saturdays Daily. ]

Messrs Bradrick and McKinnon have taken lease on the slag dump at the old Val Verde shelter, and will break it up, sort over, and ave the slag that carries copper values smelt. ed at the plant of the Arizona Smelt. ing company at Humboldt.
 The gentlemen, who are experts on slng, and who have made . business of taking leases on slag dumps in various sections of the mining world. declare that they will make a good thing of their lease, and that there IS some slag in the dump that will run high in copper and other values. They say that some of the mineral smeited at the Val Verde was very fractious, and that through carelessne ,s or otherwise values were allowed to escape in the slag
 When the Humboldt smelter 10 started up good deal of the slag will probably be used for hux as it is ex celient for that purpose, A little slag mixed with the orc charge will reduce veiy fraetious ore to a fine smelting product.
 If Bradrick and MeKinnon make n success of their venture other dumps around abandoned smelters in the ter ritory may be leased and worked m the same manner
