As the result of several conferences
between Consul Blocker. Major Cald-

! 1t was arranged that the constitutioual-
lists would not attempt to destroy either
of the two international bridges thore.
This had insured the safety of American
and other foreign residents in Fiedras
Negras.
The instructions to General Bliss
would not operate to prevent American
troops from returning any fire that may

side, such as might be incident to the
use of force to defend the bridges and
keep them open.

mine where Thomas Toshesky has been
entombed since last Friday morning
by fall of coal at the Continental col
liery, extraordinary efforts were puS
forth tonight by the rescuers TO liber-

ber of men digging through a 50-foot
pillar of coal at the bottom of a mine

mountain from the breaker structure
and late tonight 20 feet had been dug

Imprisonment he had dug away about
three feet of the surrounding wall. A
physician who accompanied the mine
superintendent conversed with Tosh-

much exercise because Of his weakened
condition. The doctor feared that the
entombed man might contract d cold
and develop pneumonia.

CoRverses With Rescuers

Toshesky conversed with his would

night and complained of being cold A
bottle of eggnogg was sent down the
tube. After drinking this the impris-

talk with his wife, who was waiting at
the edge of the mine breach. Despite
the danger, Mrs. Toshesky, with the
assistance of several miners, descend =
ed to the bottom of the mine and list
ened to the voice of her husband for
the first time in nearly a week.
How are the children. especially the
baby?' was the first question Tosh-
esky asked. He told his wife not to
worry. that the mine officials had as
sured him it would not be great while
until he could be with her again.

TORNADO CAUSES DAMAGE
AT PRINCE FREDERICK, ND.
Houses and Business Buildings Are
Crushed to Earth Like So Much
Paper-Two Women Hurt.

Prince Frederick, Nd, Sept. o.
age, tornado swept across this town
late Sunday and, during the brief two
minutes that it lasted, did damage
that will reach into thousands of dol
lars Houses and stores were un-
rooted. huge trees uprooted and, as
though in the grip of giant hand,
were hurled more than three hundred
feet. while small outhouses were lifted
bodily into the air and crushed
against the ground like SO much pa
per.
Luckily the path of the storm was
not wide, being q bare hundred feet,
and it struck the business section,
leaving the residential section intact.
Had it not been for this. it is thought
the loss OF life would have been large.
AS it was, few persons were on the
streets and those who were out had
ample warning to get TO safety. No
one was injured, but narrow escapes
from falling trees and timbers were
many.
The roof of the courthouse was torn
entirely off and every chimney on 1t
blown down, leaving large gaps for
the downpour that followed few
minutes after the tornado. The town
hall was also badly damaged while
several Of the largest stores were un-
rooted and their contents badly dam
aged by both wind and rain. Win
dows in the path of the storm were
blown in like tissue paper and per-
sons in the buildings at the time, al
though few, narrowly missed being
cut by the flying glass.
