SECOND SHIP MAY BE LOST.
Anxiety Deepens for 173 Men
Aboard Southern Cross

st. Johns, n. F.. Aplil 5.-Anxiety
deepened tonight for 173 men on the
sealing steamer Southern Cross.
which has been missing since Tues
days blizzard. She has not been re-
ported either by incoming vessels of
the sealing fleet or by the steamer
Kyle sent out by the Government to
search for her. If she is not heard
from by sunset tomorrow she will
be officially posted as lost with all
on board. Disaster to her, following
so closely the loss of II men of the
sealer New Foundland would bring
on the colony the greatest tragedy in
its history, deprivins whole settle
ments of their bread winners and
rendering one thousand women and
children dependent on charity.
AS the public learned today from
the New Foundland's survivors who
were landed yesterday, details of the
two days blizzard and the condition
in which is thought the Southern
Cross, the first hopes, based on the
slowness of the ship faded. Capt
Daniel Martin. of the sealer Erik,
and Capt William Barnett of the
Terranova which arrived with full
catches, were dubious regarding the
safety OF the ship.
The Torranova captain said the
last he saw Of the Southern Cross
was week ago Friday, when she
was wallowing slowly down the
coast. Other ships OF the fleet sight
ed the steamer driving before the
gale last Tuesday morning. She has
not been reported since and the skip
pers OF the fleet who came through
that gale and storm of equal severity
later in the week, say every chance
was against a vessel so deep in the
water as the Southern Cross.

Immediately and that the exodus to
FL Paso, Texas, should begin to-
morrow. Their property will be con-

It is the tragedy of chihuahua
over again and is said to express the
deep rooted suspicion, and even hat
red. with which the native Mexican,
and particularly the peon, looks on
the Spaniards.
Villa expelled the Dons from Chi
huahua four months ago, and since
then repeatedly has said other Span
iards must go out OF Mexico. His
abiding conviction that they were
working as one man against the re-
volution found frequent expression
while he was in Juarez, when he as
serted he would execute every one
that he found in Torreon.
The Spanish government was
aroused, and Washington descended
on the Constitutionalist chiefs with
words OF warning and admonition.
Villa promised that Spaniards in
nocent of political activity should
not be. harmed. This was official. but
in talking with representatives and
friends It was said his temper fire.
quently betrayed him into the most
tragic threats. Some of those con-
stantly associated with Rebel lead
ers said he did not expect to find
many Spaniards who would deserve
his clemency.

SHORT LINE TO LEWISTON.
Idaho May Soon Have North and
South Railroad.

With the completion this summer of
a branch of the Oregon Short Line
known as the Idaho Northern railway,
running north from Emmett, Idaho, to
Payotte lake, reports are prevalent in
central Idaho that continued extension
lnorthward is planned for next year,
with Lewiston, Idaho, as the terminus
and Spokane as the ultimate end of
the line.
The work being done at the present
time consists in the LAYING of about
30 miles Of track from Donnclly to
Mccall, the latter station being on the
lake. About 10 miles remains to be
finished, and go men are now en-
ployed on the extension, the track
laying crew requiring no men and $50
being used in the surfacing gang
bridge construction and in the mater
ial Yards.
THAT the Oregon Short Line will
allow the extension to run only to
Mccall is not held probable. For
many years the central counties of
Idaho have been looked upon as pos
Shle producers Of large tonnage. The
annual report of State Mining In
speCtor Bell of Idaho, declared that a
mining section equal to the Occur
d'Alene would be developed in this
district with the opening of the coun-
try by a railroad.

to exist north from PaNette lake to
