WHOLE MEXICAN FAMILY
KILLED BY YAQU|
INDIANS
Party AmbuShed as They
Rode Near Their Home
In Broad Day.
THEIR BODIES WERE
BADLY MUTiLATED

Douglas, Ariz., Oct. 17.-Juan
Luna. prominent Mexican rancher
of the Torres neighborhood in old
Mexico, with his whole family, con-
sisting of his wife and three children,
were murdered by band of Yaqui
Indians, to whom some offense had
been given, Wednesday afternoons.
Luna with his family was driving
along the road near his home when
the band pounced on him and killed
the party with the exception of two
laborers who fled for help.
The road skirts the railroad track
in that vicinity and the engineer of
a passenger train a half hour after
the murder, saw the bodies and
stopped the train. The bodies were
taken on the train to Torres. All
were terribly mutilated.
The Tragedy.
The Indians appeared suddenly
from ambush and at the first fire the
ranchman, Luna, who strove heroic
ally to defend his family was killed.
His wife was also killed in the first
volley. The servants panic-stricken,
made a wild endeavor to gain their
freedom, leaving the children alone
to their fate.
TWO or the servants, who were
mounted on speedy horses, succeeded
in breaking through the Yaqui lines
and reached Torres where they gave
the news of the attack. The other
two servants were killed.
The two daughters of the ranch
man had met death in a horrible
manner. The youngest, who was a
mere child, was found with her
throat cut from ear to ear. while her
sister who was several years older
was found with her skull crushed in.
1t appears that in some manner
Luna had given offense to the va
quis, probably by refusing to furnish
them with food or ammunition, and
he knew, according to his friends,
that his life was in danger, but did
not believe the Indians would attack
him in daylight, hence he was riding
with no unusual guard.

THE LIQUID FLOW OF
MONEY HAS BEEN
BLOCKED"
Hartman Tells Why Findn.
Cial StringenCy Has Been
So Widespread.
WILL BE SAFER AND
SANER HEREAFTER

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. 17-"Money is
like liquid. The moment you place
an obstruction in front of 1t, it
causes a dimunition of the flow"
This is one of the new financial
aphorisms to which Edward H. Har-
riman, who came to Chicago to bat
tie with Stuyvesant Fish, gave ut
terance when asked to express his
Ideas upon the future of the coun-
try.
"This obstruction" continued the
Napoleon of the railway world, "has
been placed in front of the liquid
stream of money and has already
caushed a serious check in its flow.
This obstruction is the apprehension
which runs like prairie fire through
the land and has perm eated the
minds of the people. This apprehen-
sion has been caused partially If not
entirely by the agitation against cor
porations in general and railroads in
particular"

FLOODS CONTINUE TO
CAUSE IMMENSE
DAMAGE
France Is Suffering Both Loss
of Life and Property
From The Con.
tinued Rains,
GREAT DISTRESS FELT
AMONG POOR PEOPLE
Whole Town Washed Away But
Most Of Inhabitants Escaped
To Hills--Survlvors Living
On Roofs and Other
High Places.

Paris, France, Oct. 17.-Dispatch-
es from the center and south of
France today confirm the first re-
ports of the destruction caused by
floods. The rivers Loire, Rhone and
Saone and their tributaries are rag
ing torrents. In hundreds of cities
and towns there Is two to ten feet
of water in the streets. Great dis
tress has resulted. Railroad traffic
Is utterly disorganized. The storm
center is now moving seward.
Whole districts have been devas-
tated by the floods, which came in
most respects too suddenly for the
people to make preparation TO save
their stock and supplies, and in
many instances whole families were
drowned. The exact number of
dead Is not known, owing to the wide
district covered by the floods and the
fact that there is little communlca-
ton, all wires being down.
Difficult Relief Work.
The government, aided by private
parties and subscriptions, has under
taken an organized relief work, but
owing to the fact that water still
covers practically the whole of south
France along all the rivers and
smaller streams, no railroad traffic
roads are out of commission. Steam
ers from all available points have
been pressed into service and the
work of carrying provisions into the
devastated districts is now under
way.
Many of the inhabitants of the
flooded sections have been brought
to higher points in the republic. The
floods this year covered ground and
reached heights that have never been
considered in the least danger.
Banreas Washed Away.
II was stated this afternoon that
the town of Banreas, with a popula-
tiOn of about 5000, situated on the
Rhone, is entirely gone, the rush of
waters having totally destroyed the
place and washed every vestige of
1t away.
Other reports of great damage are
coming in but details are lacking.
The loss of life, however, consider
ing the extensive property loss, is not
great, since most of the inhabitants
of Banreas and other towns which
are in the flooded districts were able
to reach spots of safety.
Living in Upper Stories.
In the flood region, most of the
people who remained after the stage
of water became dangerous, are liV-
ing in the second and third stories
of houses or In roughly improvised
tents or other shelters on the roofs
The sOlidty of construction of their
houses in most instances renders this
means Of living safe.

The Failure.

The sentiment on Wall street to-
day was divided between a feeling
of relief that the situation created
by the United Copper manipulation
had been cleared up, and a nervous
ness lest the failure of Gros-F'lee-
berg, brokers for Heinze, might have
an unfavorable effect generally.
That firms claims that its inability
to meet its obligations was due to
the purchase Of United Copper made
for Otto Heinze & Co., but not ac-
cepted by the firm. 1t has brought
the name OF +. Augustus Heinze in
to Wall street comment.

 Can Be Used at Once.
 By an arrangement that the Board of Revenue has made with the Bynum Construction Company 1t will be pos- sible for the county to move the prisonefs into the remodeled portion of the new jail without the building being finally accepted. This comes Tn the way of verbal contract between Mir. Byum and the Board and will De the means of having the little work yet to be done completed immediately and will be a benefit to the county.
 By this arrangement the county will not be seriously affected with the suit that has come up between the Bynum Construction Company and the sup- contractors who did the clustering. The contractors have refused to accept the piastering work and are holding the payment of about $2,000 for which Morney and Monahan of Mobile. the plasterers are suing. The Board Of Revenue would not accept the building unless the plastering was in first class shape so it appeared for a time that the building could not be accepted and the prisoners moved until the suit had been settled.
 owing to the. fact that the clustering can be made right, the floors fixed and the sewerage rernedied in few places without discommoding the prisoners has made. this agreement between the Board and the contractors possible. The prisoners will probably be moved. the first of next week.
