pRosy ON THE
SIBERIAN COAST

Leprosy, the most dread disease in all existence, that affliction that ostra icises men from civilized communities and blights their whole lives and that of their posterity, rots their bodies and makes repulsive things of the most at tractive persons, is established on the Siberian coast, according to a letter received here today by the Gold Dig ger from John w Kelly, trader who went to Siberia some years ago.
 Kelly writes: "Leprosy which has long been known on the peninsula of Kamchatka is now permanently estab- lished in most of the villages of Thuk- otsk Peninsula"
 The import of the above, which Is authentic, coming from one who is well known here as a man of truth, is great, because of the communication between the Siberian natives and Alas kan traders. Traders go to the coast of Siberia every year returning with goods purchased from the natives.
 Local physicians have been inter viewed regarding the above and they say that it is well known that leprosy has existed on Kamchatka for years Dr. D. E. Hill, city health officer, said Ithis afternoon that natives coming here from the Siberian coast will be closely examined to protect the people of this city from contamination with the loathsome disease.

FALLING BUILDING
 KILLS EMPLOYES

DETROIT. June 14.-Without a mo- ment's warning. OF a sound to indicate any danger, the top five stories of the Peninsula stove works crashed down on the lower floor, bringing death and injury to the employees who were gath cred about during the noon hour.
 Fully two hundred men were seat tered about the building eating their lunches and resting. They had mo warning of the great disaster about to occur, and were laughing and talking with each other when the walls began to tremble and a second after, the floors came down with a mighty crash that was heard for blocks around.
 Four bodies have been removed but were so crushed that it was impossible to recognize them More than forty injured were rescued and taken c. the hospital where physicians say that only a few of the injured ones can survive.

FIRST NEWS FROM SIBERIA.

Tine following is a letter from John w Kelly, who is situated at Vladimir, on Plover Bay, Siberia, as the agent of the Northeastern Siberian Company. It was sent to the Diomedes Islands during the winter and brought to the mainland this spring by Missionary Thompson, who posted 1t at Teller Kelly says: Tn october last year Alexandrow. who was purser of the oakland a few years ago, and two Russian companions. were blown out to sea in light skif from Anadyr, and after much suffering from cold, hunger and thirst soutnerly gale re- turned them to the coast at Holy Cross Bay.
 Natives sent AleXandrow and one of the Russians back to Anadyr and took the other north to Cape Agen and died a short time afterward. It is not known here whether Alexand- row and the other Russian suffered any permanent injury.
 "The whale catch on the Thukotss Peninsula for November was Plover Bay 3, John Rowland Bay 3, Cape Agen 1, Cape Berng 1, Indian Point l. As the natives had neither seal or walrus meat for a change they ate the nine whales within a month. After the whales were eaten. there was no chance for further whaling or sealing and the natives then began eating their remaining reindeer. The schooner Trader at Indian Point is in q safe position. ."

TURTLE AND
 DROWNS 20 PEOPLE

PHILADELPHIA, June 14.-While lying at her dock this morning for her usual list of excursion passengers, the steamer Clearwater turned turtle and before help could be offered sank from view in the deep bay.
 Fully one hundred and fifty passen- gers had boarded the vessel and others were coming aboard, when sinking of ner stern was noticed. A moment later, it seemed that her boilers or some heavy part of her machinery rolled to the stern and the weight caused the steamer to tip violently back and her keel came up as she settled in the water.
 Twenty of the known passengers were drowned and it is thought that the death list will be large. An in vestigation has been ordered and the boat will be righted if possible to do so

Three hundred persons were killed last night in various cities of Southern France by earthquake shocks that tumbled buildings to the ground grind ing out the lives of the luckless vic- tims, who unwarned of the great dan ger. slept in their homes never wax ing from their slumbers
 A dozen cities have suffered heavy losses in lives and property and the French troops have been dispatched to the stricken towns to give relief to the sufferers.
 Martial law will prevail in every city where the death and desolation is SO extensive that the municipal authorl- ties can not handle the distressing sit nations.
 There were three distinct shocks, In rapid succession, the most violent be ing the second, which did most of tho damage. This city has fifty dead from the falling buildings, and two hundred are seriously injured Many of the. will die.
 The death list is sure to be very large, but at present it is impossible to obtain full reports.

CALVIN DITCH AND
 MINING co. OPERATING
Kougarok Hydraulic Plant Placed at Work Several Days Ago-GaVin
 and Shaw Will Leave Soon.
CFrom Wednesdays Daily)


 Work on the benches of Coarse Gold Creek in the Kougarok began several days ago, the plant of the Calvin Ditca and Mining Company being placed in operation by "Riuy" Briggs, as soon as the breakup occurred and it was possible to get the water through the ditch system.
 The abrupt fall of the water in the Calvin ditch. which is something like sixty feet to the mile affords at the end of the system a pressure of 300 feet, which furnishes sufficient power for hydraulic purposes. The nozzles of the monitors have been piping the dirt ino the fumes for more than ten days. and much gold evidently is awaiting the cleanup in the Hume.
 Jerry Calvin and Earl B. Shaw. the men who are heavy stockholders in the company and who represent the inter ests outside. arrived here recently from the states. and they will leave shortly to ed to the scene of the operations. Mrs Calvin accompanied her husband from the east and win be in fine Kou- earok with him this summer. They will live in comfortable house on the properties where the prospectors are to be conducted.

IMPRISONED IN sUNKEN VESSEL
 (From Mondays Dafly)

sEVASTOPOL, Russia, June H. Imprisoned in a submarine vessel of the Russian navy which sank two days ago during the maneuvers of the Black Sea fleet, twenty men, crew of the craft. are in great danger of drowning, though heroic efforts to rescue them are being made.
 The maneuvers of the fleet were hc ing conducted a mile distant from the shore when in the regular line one of the most recently built submarines was seen to sink below the surface Instantly it was known that something was wrong on board, as no vessel would conduct itself in an irregular manner during the maneuvers, and other ships left the line going to the sinking vessel.
 They were too late, however and arrived as the small whirlpool closed over the sinking craft. There was consternatlon among the officers of the torpedo fleet and on the battleshps, the prevailing opinion being that the little craft had sprung a leak that forced it under the water.
 The craft did not rise again to the surface and preparations were at once made to rescue the men imprisoned in the vessel It Is not known that the men are yet alive, but the officers en- gagged in the attempted rescues say that the believe the men have sui fcient amount of compressed air to sustain life for three days.
 Grappling hooks have been taken to the scene of the accident with which the officers hope to accomplish the rescue.

 OWNER MAY BE DROWNED (Erom Mondays DailNO

A floating telescope containing sev- eral garments and some legal papers was found on the beach at the waters edge by a longshoreman a few hours ago, and considerable mystery is con nected with the discovery of the bag gae. The papers are location notices, dated 19O4-05 and the name of J. J. OBrien appears on them. The man who found the baggage Is of the opin- ion that the same was lost from one of the vessels, though others entertain the idea that he may have met with an accident.
