MINING INTERESTS OF
JOHN M'KANE.

The many mining properties of
John McKane, at one time one of the
most prominent figures in mining
circles in Nevada, are reported sold
to an eastern syndicate who are said
: to be planning resumption of

arrangements can be completed.
McKane, who at one time was the
mining expert handling all Of
Schwab's Nevada interests, obtained
possession of the Golden Anchor,
Red Rock and McKane Mining COM
pany groups of claims lying a short
distance north and west of Tonopah.
Sometime afterward McKane became
involved financially and borrowed
about $4,000 from the Tonopah
Banking corporation, giving the min
ing property as security. The sale to
the fasteners will clear up this debt
which now amounts to nearly $780,
900.
Attorney Key Pittman, who has
been handling the deal, declines to

lor of Kentucky, still a fugitive here,
heard for the first time Thursday how
narrowly he escaped from being kid

the ventilated coffin was TO- be opened
and Taylor arrested, charged with the

The plan was laid bare by Col. Burch.
field, of Lexington, Ky. It failed, said
Col. B~urchtield, because the indianapolis
police, who were friendly to Taylor, got
wind Of it and furnished guards night
and day for the Kentuckian.
Lured by the 100000 reward for the
return of Taylor, several soldiers Of
fortune of Kentucky, came to Indian
apolis, rented a vacant house to which
Taylor was to be transported in a cab
any opportune moment he could be
seized and stored the coffin in the vacant
house. In this house Taylor was to be
bound and gagged and nailed in the
coffin. An inquisitive real estate agent
who wondered why the men who rented
this house, did not move in, spoiled the
Dlan.

PRAYERS BROUGHT CYCLONE
Revivalist and Congregation Asked
Warning Catastrophe.

Cuthbert, Ga.-The cyclone which
struck this place Tuesday night, destroy.
ing over 300 buildings, killing six per.
sons, injuring twenty-eight, and leaving
900 families homeless, came in answer
to prayer, so the church folks assert,
and was sent by God to warn the town
TO eschew evil and pursue righteous
ness.
For 4 week before the cyclone a great
revival was in progress, and there were
nightly prayers for God to send cyclone
OF earthquake to warn the u%nrighteous.
On the night of the cyclone nearly 1000
persons were present at revival service
and the cyclone came while a ferveut
prayer was being made for God to send
storm, earthquake or some other sign to
waken the wicked.
When word reached the church of the
awful wreck and the appalling property
loss, the preacher made Il strong appeal
to the people, and in the darkness cries
and supplications went UP to God min
gled with shouts of victory. Thursday
a praise service was held that God had
answered their prayers and melted the
stony hearts of the people.

TAFT USES BIG STICK
SEWERS DIPLOMTTIC RELA-
TONS WITH NICARAGUA.
Warships Ordered to Patrol Coast Of
Country--Mexico Is Acting
With United States.

Washington.-Owing to the continued
disturbed conditions in Nicaragua and
President Zelaya's failure to make Sc
rious efforts looking to the settlement
of the Emery claim, the state depart
ment has broken off diplomatic relations
with that country.
Affairs in Central America have been
closely watched by the American and
Mexican governments, both of which
have now come to an understanding that
the time has arrived when drastic meas.
ures should be enforced to insure peace
in the Central American republics.
Ambassador La Barra, Of Mexico,
spent some time at the state depart
ment Friday, in conference with Assist
ant Secretary Wilson, and the determine
ton was reached that if the American
~warships now in Nicafaguan waters and
to be sent there are not sufficient to i'm
press President Zelaya that the treaty
of peace entered into between the Cen
trail American republics is to be lived
up to, more radical steps would be taken
to accomplish that result.
