MINERS WIN IN
RACE WITH FIRE
Run Three Miles and Escape
Awful Death in Burning
Mine

out.
At the mouth of the mine thou
sand anxious men. women and chill
dren collected. For the rear entry
was forgotten; it was only recently
built. this being one of the lessons
learned by the company by its expert
ence at the Darr mine, where there
was no rear entrance.
Not one of the fleeing men came In
contact with the fire, as far as could
be ascertained last night. Twenty

JEALOUS kOM|RER
WAS IN WINNIPEG
Former Friend of Murdered
Woman Said to Have Sent
Threats

Winnipeg, May 5.-The mysterious
dark man, so popular with the for
tune tellers has enteded into the
James murder case. which coro-
ner's jury is endeavoring to fathom.
This sombre person is now said to
be a prominent factor in the deduc-
tions of the police with regard to
the individual who perpetated the
atrccious homicide on Thursday,
April %, in the little cottage on Do
minion street. This man, who is al
legged to have written a letter to the
murdered woman last summer threat
ening to kill her, was seen in Winni-
peg week prior to the date on which
the crime was committed. E. C. Davis,
at whose residence on Gertrude
street, Lewis James is residing was
told of this during the evening, and
volunteered the information that it
was he who appraised the police Of
this matter. which is probably the
most important development which
has taken place since the day of the
murder. Mr.. Davis said he had plac-
ed the police in position that they
could investigate the truth of his in
formation. 1t is understood that the
man was seen by person VINO was
intimately acquainted with him dur
ing his residence in this city.
Causes for Suspicion.
In view of the reported jealous dis
position of this man, and the fact
that after an engagement Of one year.
Mrs. James broke off her relations
with him, and that he wrote last
year stating he would be in Winnipeg
this spring. establishes some bearing
on the case It is also claimed that
he threatened in a letter. which was
opened by the father of Mrs. James at
Gladstone that he would do away
with both her and himself if she did
not marry him: there seems to he
sequence which suggests solution
of the affair. 1t is a peculiar COIN
cidence that Miss Leah Cantin. on
reading the description furnished by
G. r. Germain. identified this man as
the one who had walked away from
the kitchen door of the James home
at 8 O'Clock on the morning of the
day the murder was committed.
Noted For Jealousy.
Leah Cantin, when interviewed the
Sunday after the murder occurred,
and before any hint had been thrown
out that the individual referred to
was under suspicion. told reporter

of the sultan, but he has agreed to
retain the post until after the cere-
mony of "girding on the sword" which
corresponds to coronation in other
countries, and for few days there
after until the country is quieter. This
ceremony probably will take place
next Monday.
Tewfik Pasha and Gen. schefket,
commander of the constitutionalist
forces that entered Constantinople
April "a, had a conference today re-
