A SUICIDE
 AT BOARD CAMP
Farmer Blows His Head off With a Shotgun While His Wife Is Away From Home Gathering Wood
 Believed Was Insane

Deputy Sheriff John Bratcher and Virgil Pirtle returned home last week from the vicinity of Big Fork, where they had been on official business, and reported suicide committed near Board Camp Thursday by man named Smallwood, who lived on the Prof. A. c. Thompson place.
 For the past two years, it IS reported, Smallwood's mind has been greatly affected and during this time he had become accus- toned to sitting under a big tree near his home in perfect silence.
 Thursday morning Mrs. Small wood had gone quite little ways from the house to gather up some kindling wood and when she left she noticed her husband sitting under the tree as usual. While she was away she heard a report from the house and upon returning found the door locked. She made an entrance to the house, however, and found her husband lying on the floor, with the left side of his head com pletely torn off and a shotgun which had been discharged lying at his side.
 Smallwood had pulled one oi his shoes off aud it is supposed put the muzzle of the gun to bis head and by the use of his toes had pressed the trigger and dis charged the gun.
 He leaves wife and three or four grown children.
 MT. Smallwood moved to the Thompson farm about two years ago from near Black Springs.

 sal and Name New Chief.

Ad- ans by Chief of Police Clancy, and one of his officers.

IObREAK COAL MONOPOLY
The Federal Government Brings Suit Against Anthracite Coal
 Carrying Railroads.
IS TIE RESULT OF AN INVESTIGATION
The Petition Charges the Defendants
 Have Conspired Among Them selves to Silence Competition snS> Asks That They be Enjoined From Carrying Out Combination.


 Philadelphia, June 13.-The suit of the United States against the anthra- cite coal carrying railroads which are charged with carrying on a mo- nopoly in the production, transporta- lion and sale of hard coal, was filed Wednesday in the UnitGl States cir cult court in this city.
 The defendants are the following companies: Reading, Philadelphia X
 Heading, Lehigh Valley, Lackawan- na. Central of New Jersey, Erie, Sus- quehanna, Philadelphia and Reading
 Coal & Iron company, New York, Susquehanna & Western Coal com pany, and the Temple Iron company.
 After filing the bill of complaint hy District Attorney Thompson, the machinery was put in motion to have the papers served upon the de- fendants.
 The suit began Wednesday is the result of an investigation started by the department of justice nearly year ago. The attorney general or tue United States appointed Alexan- der Simpson, Jr., of this city and Charles F. Hughes of New York, as special assistants to carry on the in vestigation. MT. Hughes withdrew from the investigation when he be- cane candidate for governor ot
 New York and his place Was taken
 bv C. Carol Todd Of Now York. 4 state ment given out by the depart
 ment of justice says:
 'In brief, the petition recites that
 the defendant railroads control all the means of transportation between the anthracite mines and tldewater' except the lines of the Pennsylvania
 Railroad and the New York, Ontario & Western railway, which reach only a limited number of collieries; that they transport annually about 7S per cent of the total anthracite tonnage, that in their own name or through coal companies whose capital stock
 they own they control about ninety
 per cent of all the anthracite deposits
 and produce about 75 per cent of the annual supply; that independent op- orators, although owning probably lit l tie more than per cent of the an l thracite deposits. yet produce about l 20 per cent of the annual supply,
 which would be sold in competition | with the output of the defendants | were it not for the restraints imposed | by the latter.
 "The petition then charges that 1 the defendants have conspired to si
 lence competition among themselves in the transportation and sale of coal and to prevent the sale of the inde pendent output in competition with their own. thereby establishing mo
 nopoly
 | The petition prays generally thai l the defendants be enjoined from fur | ther carrying out their combination l and specifically that the above des
 cribed contracts be cancelled and that !! the mergers between the Erie Rail road company and New York, Susque | hanna & Western Railroad company
 and their coal companies and between | the Philadelphia & Reading Railway | company and the Genital Railroat
 company of New Jersey and their coal | companies be dissolved"

 One Man Killed.

Fort Smith, Juno 12.-At 1:45 o'clock this afternoon the corning mill of the Equitable Powder Company plant, located about four miles south of the city, ex- ploded, wholly destroying the building and burning to death William Coleman. one of the em- ployes. The corning house is where the powder is ground from the pressed cake, and is the larg- est of the many buildings com posing the plant.
 No one knows just what caused the explosion. Coleman was at the time the only man iu that dppartment, and he must have seen that an expios' ca was to occur, as he was seen running o..t [ of the building, and his exit was immediately followed by hug, volume of smoke and flame, which was seen in Van Buren, II miles away. Coleman died AS minutes after the explosion. He was 25 years of age and leaves his wife and baby.
 The explosion was so violent that it uprooted trees in the inn mediate vicinity. The concussiou was felt for a distance of five miles.

.AEVEN NERE DROWNED
No Hope Entertained for Occupants of Missing Launch From Bat
 tleship Minnesota.
PROBABLY RUN DOWN BY sTtAMEf
Contained Six Midshipmen and Five Seamen Who Were Returning to Their Vessel From the Exposition at Jamestown-Lucky Escape of Lieut.. Randall.

Washington, June 13.-The loss at one time of six bright young midship- men fresh from the academy at An napolis, young marine officer very recently appointed, and a boatswain and four enlisted men attached to the big battleship Minnesota-twelve men all together, as reported briefly to the Navy department Tuesday. was one of the most severe blows that has fallen upon the personnel of the navy since the Spanish war, in the estimation of the officials.
 At midnight the following informa- tion was received from the flagship Connecticut bearing on the disaster in Hampton Roads Monday night:
 Launch from the Minnesota lost last night about 12:30 a. m. while re- turning from the exposition pier. Six midshipmen and the launchs crew of five enlisted men are thought to have been drowned. Caps of two midship- men were found floating in the harbor Monday night. No survivor to give absolute details. Opinion is that launch was run down by steamer. In the opinion of the officials of the department Admiral Evans had de layed sending this sad message until he had exhausted every means oi finding trace of the missing men. Sailors at the navy department said there was always chance that the launch had merely broken her ma chinery and going adrift without con trol in the very strong ebb tides that swept through the roads had perhaps gone out to sea with her crew and passengers still safe. The depart ment sent a wireless message to Ad miral evans requesting him to furnish the names of the five enlisted men who made up the crew of the missing launch.
 Because of their youth and very re cent entry into the naval service the young officers who were lost were not widely known outside of the na val academy. Midshipman Henry c Murfin. jr., was a native of Ohio and a member of the second class al the naval academy. Like the others he had been sent aboard the battle ship Minnesota for a summer course of instruction, to afford the practical education necessary to supplement the theoretical work at the naval academy. Philip H. Field was md shipman from Colorado who belonged to the first class of the academy Midshipman Walter c. Ulrich of the second class was from Wisconsin Midshipman W. H. Stevenson of Cali fornia was member of the second class and Henry L. Holden of Wiscon sin was member of the same class
 It developed later that Lieut.. Ran dall, who at first was reported lost had missed the launch and pro ceeded to hotel where he remained over night.
