Norfolk, Va, June 12.-It was re-
ported today that the sinking of the
launch from the Minnesota and the
drowning of eleven men, including
six midshipmen returning from the
Army and Navy ball at the James
town Exposition, and the crew of the
launch, Monday night, resulted from
the launch being run down by tug
and coal barge. The Indemnity of the
tug is not yet known. 1t was said that
the tug stopped after the accident,
but finding no trace of the object
struck nor any sign of life in the wa
ter, resumed its course with the coal
barge in tow. The presumption is
that the launch sank Immediately in
the darkness of the stormy night, and
the occupants being caught in their
canvas covered craft with no possible
way of escape were carried to the
bottom.
Newport News, Va, June 12.-
Shortly before noon today articles
were washed ashore at Buckree Beach
supposed to come from the ill-fated
launch of the Minnesota which was
sunk il Hampton Roads Monday
night. The articles consisted of two

cloths similar to that used for cush-
ions on naval launches, a sleeve from
the blouse of a sailor and a portion OF
an awning similar to the one that
covered the launch in question.

Toxic, Japan, June 12.-AsaAi's cor
respondent at Washington reports al
attack upon a Japanese horticulturisi
at Berkeley, California, resulting in
the destruction of his greenhouse and
other property This has famed the
flame of indignation here and served
to confirm the popular belief that the
violence is the result of a deep-rooted
feeling against the Japanese.
Story Was Exaggerated.
San Francisco Cal, June 12-Tho
mas G. Walker, representing the Jap
anese Association of America, states
that boys threw a few stones at the
greenhouse in Berkeley. but that the
damage was slight, and the asSOcia-

CARLSBAD READY FOR
THE GREAT CELEBRATION

Great preparations will be followed
by spendid performance when Carls-
bad opens the doors to admit the In
dependence day crowds. Carlsbad has
less than 1,00O,0 900 Inhabitants, but
the town takes care of visitors in
regular FL Paso way, and what more
could be said?
For three days, New Mexico will
celebrate the Inauguration of the first
national reclamation project to turn
on the water in the Southwest. Reso-
lutions by the New Mexico legislature
expressed the appreciation felt by the
people of the Territory for the hearty
cooperation and energetic work of
the reclamation service officials and
it is partly to express formally this
sentiment that the celebration is held.
1t is expected that the Secretary of
the Interior and the director of the
reclamation service will be at Carls-
bad during the celebration. 1t is great.
ly to be regretted that the supervising
engineer who has had this work in
charge will necessarily be absent, for
it is to B. NJ. Hall primarily that
Carlsbad owes her salvation. He made
a personal fight for Carlsbad and the
valley, and such was the reliance
placed in his judgment at headquar-
ters that he was sustained even over
the adverse reports of other consult
ing engineers.
1t would be mighty good thing If
EI Paso would send strong delega-
ton to Carlsbad for the celebration.
Let the FL Paso Valley Water Users
Association pick out some good repre-
sentatives. Carlsbad is right in our
front yard, even if we do have to go
around the block to get tAere.-El

Boise, Idaho, june 12.-The cross
examination of Harry Orchard today
is being carried on over the attempt
on the life of Governor Peabody at
Canon City and the events immed-
lately succeeding, in eludi1g the God.
dard and Gabbert plots. The attorneys
followed the usual methods designed
to confuse and diScfedit the witness.
Attorney Richardson again suggested
that Orchard was being coached by
Detective McPharlahd and by counsel
for the prosecution! and he thus pro-
voked the sharpesd wrangle the at
torney and the witness have had in
their long contest. Orchard spiritedly
denied that he was being coached and
asserted that he was telling the truth.
Orchard said that he and Pettfbone
discussed the project of killing Judge
Gabbert, but that he alone started
out to murder Judge Goddard without
any suggestion from Haywood, Meyer
Or Pettibone, except IA general one
made months before. .
Still another crime came home to
Orchard today. Under Examination he
confessed that he swihdled the farm
ers of southern Colora lido with fake
hail insurance game while down there
trying to kill Governor Peabody.
Just before the nooa recess the mo
of the eXaminatien was brok-
en- by Orchards description of his
to kill Shernh han Bell in Den
ver For twelve nights, he said, he
was at Bells residence, waiting al
to shoot Ehim. More than

Need of a Humane Society.

A Communication
Editor Record Isn't it about time
to call halt on the jay practice in
this town of bronco busting" and
fast butcher wagon driving, dog
fights, etc, on tae main streets?
And don't we really need a humane
society, some one humane enough and
with authority to put stop to the
use-we see it every day-of poor,
broken down, crippled horses. animals
that should be allowed to die in peace
instead of being daily made to travel
on spawned, broken legs and feet.
1t is disgrace on this beautiful
little town that there is absolutely
no effort to protect tae children from
reckless young drivers, or the poor
dumb brutes from the greater brIrtes
who have possession of them. Will
we wait until some dear little child
is MANNED before this reckless riding
and driving is stopped? Watch Main

isn't well taken. $$~

sixty-six by Christian Socialists The
various anti-Semite parties have a to
tai of 107, and the Zech party, which
is divided into many factions, controls
| total of 81 votes. The latter, how
ever, are almost certain to split on
many important measures.
For years the Austrian Social De
mocrats have been agitating universal
suffrage, with the result that the
spoils of the first election under that
system are in their hands. Their tre-
mendous vote il the industrial cen
ters of Bohemia and Moravia, notably
in this city and Prague, was a great
shock to the country at large and was
wholly unlocked for. In the last house
of delegates the Social Democrats had
only eleven members, showing a gain
of sevelty-two in the recent election.
The anti-Semites also made great
gains, although not nearly so wonder
full as those of the Socialists. The
Young Zechs were almost wiped out
of existence, having As seats in the
old house and only three in this. The
pan-Germa7s have also almost disap-
peared. The success of the Socialists
is attributed to their wonderful party
organization, one of the most perfect
ever seen in an European parliamen-
tary compaign. No opportunity, no
matter how slight, was neglected by
the party leaders to make Socialist
votes, while the other parties trusted
to luck and past prestige, with no or
Sanization worthy of the name. While
downcast as a result of the Socialis-
tic victory, government officials be-
lieve it will serve as a needed lesson
TO the leaders of the other parties.
The Austrian reichstrath now has a
larger proportion of Socialist memb-
ers than any other legislative body
in the world, being almost 20 per cent
The French chamber of deputies has
about 13 per cent. the German reich
stag IL per cent, and the British house
of commons 9 per cent. of Socialist
members.
Government officials will shortly be
gin proceedings against the $4,000 vo-
ters in Vienna and lower Austria who
failed to cast ballots in the election.
Under the new universal suffrage law.
the exercise of the suffrage is compul-
sorry and the recreant ones will be ar
rested and fined as rapidly as the Of
icials can secure their names.
