BIG OCEAN LINER kEELs OVER.
Kaiser Wilhelm II. Fills With Water
While Beinu Coaled.

Bremerhaven. Germany. July %. -
The North German Lloyd steamer kal-
ser Wilhelm H.. while loading coal last
evening, suddenly listed. The water
poured into her bunkers and boiler
compartments through the open coal
ports, and the vessel careened and lay
on her side on the bottom. When the
tide was low her bow rested on a bank,
but with the rising of the tide she
slipped from that position and keeled
over.
After some delay the steam pumps
were set to work to free the vessel of
water. The cabins do not appear to be
much damaged, as little water reached
them, but the ship cannot be ready to
sail, the company announces, for sew
eral days.
In explanation of the accident, it is
said that the inspectors OF coal stow
ing had not beer notified that the YES

as she was partially aground she kept
her equilibrium. When, however, she
began to re1oat with the rising tide

Seoul, July 21.-After a day of dis
order and threatening demonstrations,
resulting from the japanese coup that
brought about the abdication of the
emperor Of Korea, the city became
quiet at nightfall and is now under
military patrol.
The police report that twenty-five
Japanese were killed and wounded
during the day. The casualties among
the Koreans are unknown. An official
Japanese report attributes the shoot
ing to Korean soldiers who could not
be controlled by their officers.
Japs Take Control.
The noise OF the shooting and the
eport of the casualties greatly alarm
ed the emperor. n he sent by the
minister Of justice a long apologize
message to Marquis Ito, to the effect
that he regretted hat his a%bdication
had caused disturbances, and he there
fore called on Marquis Ito to prevent
further trouble.
Marquis Ito called on Gen. Hasege-
wa to take military control of the city.
Troops have been offered for the safe
guarding of the consulates at Seoul.

A crowd of 5000 Koreans was beat

increase.
Enraged crowds assembled at vari-
Gus points throughout the city, and

ing rise to a forlorn hope that some
active opposition is about to begin.
Announces Abdication.
The Japanese papers have published
some sensational rumors, but the ko-
rean official Gazette, circulating on
the street, was the first official an
nouncement of the %abdication, which
was signed by the emperor and seven
ministers, in favor of the crown
prince.

Rehut Evidence of the Defense.

Boise, Idaho, July 18.-In the last
stages Of the case against William ID.
Haywood the prosecution put six wit
nesses on the stand Yesterday to rebut
the evidence OF the defense. Three
testified to conditions IN the Occur
d'Alenes In 1899 and three to the stu
alton in Colorado during the strike pc
Rod OF 1903 and 1904. The important
witnesses OF the day were those to
contradict the showing made by wit
nesses for the defense that there was
no reason for calling out the militia of
Colorado other than a desire on the
part OF the mine owners to drive mem.
bers Of the Western Federation of
Miners from the mining district. One
witness fatty contradicted the evil
dence introduced by the defense to
show that the explosion at the Vindi-
Gator mine was due to an accident.
Perjury Charge Heard.
While the trial was going on in the
district court before Judge Wood an
interesting offshoot OF the case was be-
ing held in the small room used as a
court by Justice of the Peace Savage.
G. W. Aller, the depot agent. who was
arrested charged with perjury. was
brought before the magistrate for a
preliminary hearing.
The principal witness IN the perjury
hearing was Orchard himself. He went

the railroad agent, who Aller swore
interviewed Orchard in Cripple Creek

sion at the Independence depot, on

Orchard was closely cross-question-
ed. but no amount OF questioning
brouCht out any material change in
the o.lginal story. A number of other
witnesses We're examined, the case
taking up most of the day. A motion
to dismiss will be argued to-day. AL

State Rests Its Casa.

Boise. Idaho, July 13.-The State Of

1t has introduced to prove that Will
liam d. Haywood. the secretary-treas-
urer of the Western Federation of
Miners, %conspired to kill and therefore
murdered Frank Steunenberg, a for
mer governor of the state. William
ID. Haywood. through his counsel. will
rest his case with the jury. so far as
evidence is concerned. Possibly some
witnesses will be called in %surrebuttal,
but Haywood's counsel announced that
the case may close without further
evidence.
Cut Out Certain Evidence.
Judge Wood has invited argument
on his OWL proposition to eliminate
certain evidence from consideration
by the jury. and probably a day will be
taken to present the views of both
sides as to the instructions to the jury.
On Friday morning argument is ex-
pected and the last stage of the trial
Will have commenced. After having
dismissed the jury yesterday after
noon Judge Wood stated his opinion
that the evidence introduced by the
defense to prove a conspiracy on the
part OF the mine owners. by showing
the deportation of union miners from
the Cripple Creek district during the
strike in 1903 n 1904 was not ma
terial to the issue involved, and should
not be submitted to the jury.
Not Gernane to the Case.
On the other hand. he said. the
showing by the state that Steve AID
ans was concerned in the killing Of
two men in the Occur d'Alene district
did not appear to the our to be ger
name. and should be eliminated. He
announced. however, that the court
would hear arguments to-day on these
points.
The witnesses examined yesterday
were from Colorado and give vivid ac-
counts of the conditions existing
around the mines.

the Haywood defense was that Harry
Orchard was employed by the Mine
Owners association through detect

opinion was aroused against the union

The reply OF the state was that the

merely confused the issue.
