MAN SUICIDES.
 VALDEZ HOTEL Refusal of Seattle Bank to Honor His Checks Causes Him to End Life
 Takes carboIic Acid.

Frank Bellert was found dead in one of the rooms Of the Seattle Ho- tel at 6 o'clock last night by Charles Day, proprietor of the place. Mar shah Brenneman was immediately notified and made an investigation re- sulting in the calling of a corOner's jury, which was empaneled by Judge Love and after an investigation brought in verdict of death by suicide. Bellert purchased an ounce of carbolic acid and had drank it some time after noon.
 Several checks drawn by the de ceased upon the City National Bank of Seattle had been returned to the Valdez Trust Company unhonored and they notified MT. Day, who in turn informed Bellert. who simply said: ,"I'rn done." Day, however. told him not to worry but to brace up. but 1t seemed to have preyed upon his mind until he determined to end all. The, bank book among the effects of the dead man show that he re- ceived sums of money from a sister living near Chicago and that the money was deposited to his credit at the City National bank.
 Bellert arrived in Valdez four weeks ago. He was blacksmih by trade. He was between 45 and 50 years old. Relatives have been notified and the body was taken in charge by the Valdez Undertaking Company and has been elnbalmed and will be held for a few days until the relatives can decide upon it's disposition.

PACIFIC MAIL LINER AGROUND
Wireless Summons Help to Stranded Siberia Which Has More Than
 800 Passengers on Board.

TOKYO, May "A wireless call for help from the Pacific Mail liner Siberia has caused several steamers to rush to her assistance with all possible speed. The liner went aground on a reef near Sam Asuma island off the south coast of Formo- ga island. The call for help stated that the vessel was in a precarious position and that terrific storm was raging which would prevent the pas sengers from reaching shore if they were compelled to take to the ships boats.
 The Siberia carries more than 500 passengers and crew of more than 100 men. Wireless messages have been sent out in all directions giv- ing the location of the stranded lin CT and several steamers have an swered the call but all are some dis tance from the scene. Later attempts to reach the Siberia wireless operat- or have failed and it is feared that the hold of the vessel has been pune tured on the reef and her engines put out of commission

Port age Bay is believed to present most advantages and should the harbor meet the requirements demanded by the navy it is believed that it's se- lection is assured.
 The commissioners are busy exam ming the qualifications of applicants for jobs on the Alaskan work. Hun dreds of applications have been re- ceived from railroad men and survey ors in all parts of America. Some of the applicants are being given

SOLDIERS ARREST
 MILITIA MEN Were lootina the Saloons and Pa trolIinn the Streets While in An
 Intoxicated Condition.

WALSENBURG, Colo, May 2.-The federal troops arrived here this af- ternoon and immediately took charge of the strike situation, and are pa trolling the streets of the town and guarding the mines.
 The strikers have repeatedly charg- ed that the militia men were re- sponsible for much of the disorder which has prevailed since their ar rival in the camp. The fact that the only arrests made as yet by the sol Eliers were militia men lends color to the charges of the labor leaders. More than score of militia men have been taken in charge for dis orderly conduct and robbery.
 Immediately after the federal troops arrived complaint was laid with the commanding officer that militia men had broken into and were footing sa- looms, which had been ordered closed pending a settlement of the strike. The soldiers found militia men in several saloons in such an intoxicat- ed condition that they were inca pacitated for duty and were dangerous to the public when armed.

through the Nenana coal fields. which would furnish tonnage by delivering fuel to the miners of the interior.
 It is also predicted that branch will be built westward from the trunk line which will tap the Kuskokwim country and on to the Iditarod. The withdrawal of McGrath, on the Kus- kokwim river, as a townsite, lends color to this guess. The section through which the proposed road would pass has long been considered by miners as presenting greater pos abilities for hydraulic and other forms of placer mining than any oth- CT section of the territory.
 Alaskans familiar with the west ward part of the territory assert that a trunk line from Prince William Sound via Shusitna valley with branches tapping the Matanuska coal fields, the Susitna placers, the min eral deposits of the westward and providing transportation connections with river steamers in the interior could all be constructed at figures which would be well within the ap- propriation made by congress for the purpose.

DETECTIVE HAS NARROW ESCAPE
is Trying to Save Frank From Penalty of Crime.

MARIETTA, Ga, May 2---Detective William J. Burns had narrow es- cape from the fury of a mob of citi- zens when he arrived here yesterday to give evidence substantiating his theory that Conley, the negro. was
 the murderer of Mary Phagan. the factory girl.
 Leo M. Frank, superintendent of the factory where the murdered girl was employed, has been convicted and was sentenced to hang on Alp Til IF. An extraordinary motion for new trial was taken up by the court and the execution delayed. Detective Burns has made an ex- haustive study of the case and an nounced to the court that he world te able to present evidence which
 would prove beyond shadow of doubt that James Conley. the negro, was the murderer of the girl and not Frank. He declares that the evil dence of Monteen stover. which help ed convict Frank, was not true. He says he can prove that she was not
 in the factory the day that Mary Phagan was murdered.
 The detective claims that the girl was murdered by mentally degen- crate person and that Frank is nor mai. while the negro is 6 dengerate The factory workers believe that an attempt is being made to evade jus tice and made determined attack on Burns when he stepped from the train. Only the timely arrival of police endorsements and the inter- ference of bystanders saved him from being Kidnapped or murdered.

Miners. working with only picks and shovels, have been able to make better than wages and have thor oughly prospected the ground, which is very shallow. being only IF feet to bedrock. The gold Is high grade, being worth $17.40 per ounce at the banks.
 The ground is said by miners. who are familiar with conditions, to pos sess many advantages as a hydraulic proposition. In addition to being shallow the bedrock is a soft slate with no burdensome boulders to han dle. Splendid timber for lumber for sluicing purposes grows about IF miles from the, claims, but smaller timber for fuel purposes Is every where on the Bremner. There is no shortage of water in the district at all seasons of the year.

SAN DIEGO, May "A British ship arrived yesterday from Lower California, bringing 260 American ref ugees. The refugees report that the Mexicans have been aroused to an intense fury since hostilities began and that American lives are lightly regarded.
 Fearing that the Mexicans would not respect the American consulates even before war had been declared, the Americans took refuge in the British consulates in the various Low CT California towns to escape from the fury of Mexican mobs. - .ar
 The refugees state that their prop erty was destroyed, their buildings burned and many report narrow es- capes from death. The Mexicans, both rebels and federal sympathizers, Join ed in mobs in the destruction of the property of Americans. In many cases the lives of women and chil-- dren were saved only by the inter- ference of the British consuls. v WASHINGTON May 2-Oticial ad- vices state that there are still 1.50o Americans in Mexico City who are being detained by Huerta's forces. The majority of the Americans are recent arrivals from interior towns. where the news of hostilities on the coast caused the Mexicans to drive them from their homes. They re- port that their property has been contiscated by Mexicans and that many refugees have been unable to reach Mexico City owing to the hos tilities of the Mexicans in the dis tricts through which they were forced to pass.
