FIREMEN OF FIVE POINTS
 STATION TURN NEAT JOB

Visitors to the Five Points fire station are complimenting the men upon their new engine. which is not new at all. The mistake. however. Is due to the men of the department and they are proud of it. The truth Is that the en- zine was in need of repairs and re- painting and they undertook to do the job. As has been said. the engine looks like new, and the feature of the proceeding is that the overhauling did not cost the city cent. except for ma- terials used.
 The work was done in the station rooms and with the limited facilities at their disposal the men did remark ably well. Bolts were frightened. old paint scraped off and new put on with display of artictic taste that is ad- mirable. The engine was out of com mission for about two weeks but is now ready for use, and the firemen are awaiting an opportunity Co exhibit to the public the broad diversity of their attachments.

DRUNK ON CHAMPAGNE.
VOIley of Shots Fired From Steamer
 Partly Explaintd

Puerto Cortez. Honduras, July B. (vIa. New Orleans, La, July 7.)-Some light has been thrown on the volley or shots which was fired aboard the stea? mer Goldsboro in the harbor here on the night that Francis c. Bailey made his escape from the steamer Utstein.
 Bailey is the president of the Export Shipping Company of New Jersey whom Honduras consented to extradite, after his flight from New York with a cargo on the Goldsboro. Honduras soldiers who went aboard the Goldsboro found that the crew had broken into the stores of the steamer and were having a feast, with all the champaign they wanted to drink. The champaign apparently was responsible for the shooting. Bailey is still at large. IL is now thought that after his escape from the Utstein in a small boat ne was met by another boat containing several oarsmen who rowed him in the direction of the Guatemala coast.
 The Geldsboro is now anchored in the harbor here with the crew defiant toward Honduras authorities. They demand that they be paid and dis charged and have refused to bring the steamer to the wharf. They have been offered passage to New Orleans and as- sured that they will have a claim on the receivers of the Bailey firm Tn New York but they demand cash.

 to arrive at the true facts of the case. but ever since the notorious signal in- cident on October 2. 1907, strained re- lations have existed between Lord Beresford and Rear Admiral Sir Percy Scott.
 Lord Beresford also has declined to continue his friendship with Sir John Fisher. First Lord of the Admiralty, on account of his disagreement with the Admiralty policy. This feeling has been so open that Lord Beresford at one of the Kings levees held recently, deliberately "cut" Sir John in the pres ence of many naval and military ofii- cers.
 Several of the influential London newspapers openly clamor for the res- ignation or the removal of Lord Beres- ford from the command of the Channel fleet on the ground that he cannot agree either with his superiors or with his interiors and that navy dissentions Of such nature are a national danger.

ONE THOUSAND KOREANS
 KILLED BY INSURGENTS

Seoul, dune 15, via San Francisco, July 7.--Nearly 1000 Koreans have been murdered by the Korean insur- gents and so-called patriots within the last few months.
 These Koreans were all members of the l.. l.. Ching Hoi. pro-Japanese society. Most of the Koreans murdered by their fellow countrymen were peaceful, hard-wogking men whose only crime seems to have been opposition to the disturbing element in the country and friendliness to the Japanese pro- tectorate.
 In addition to those murdered. there have been a number of cruelties and hardships. The actual statistics care fully collected and In every case veri- fled. show that since the Japanese pro- tectorate of Korea commenced. e20 men of the Il Ching Hoi have been mur- dered by the Korean insurgents. 36o houses have been burned, involving a loss of about $50.000. The revolution in Korea Is gradually being driven into a corner. The scattered bands of riot CTS are being rounded up and either forced into surrender or their activities effectually stopped. The course taken by the Government in the rigorous con ventions instituted against the disturb ing element. Is approved by the people of the country, both foreign and na- tive.

Before sending them away. Crazy Snake de- livered a message defying the laws of the State and the United States gov ernment who, he declared. have no au- thority over the Indians.
 The officers at once got into com munication with Guthrie and it is probable that the State troops will be sent to disperse the malcontents. Crazy Snake is the leader of several hundred uncivilized Indians many of whom do not speak English. They find the laws of the new State objectionable and they are enraged by Crazy Snakes assertions that they are being cheated out of their land allotments.

Such contracts as had been let could not be interfered with. but Secretary Wright directed that the minimum amount only of the khaki should be taken under the con- tracts and that hereafter. whenever possible, preference should be given to American manufacturers.

Judge, Taft, was not aware of the protest as it was not received until after he had reIin- quished the portfolio of Secretary of War It was pointed out at the War Department that much of the khaki used in this country, especially by of- oP he t1 lecture, practically all of the military tailors furnishing the foreign article in preference to the cloth of American make
