REFUSE TO GIVE UP ARMS.
U. S. Troops Get ~ Old Rifles and
Pistols From Tent Colony.

Trinidad Colo.-Strikers in the
Trinidad district, which included the
big tent colony at San Rafael heights,
whence the residents of the destroyed
Ludlow colony went, Saturday surren-
dered 72 arms of all character to the
Federal army officers. Among the lot
were some with broken stocks, burst
barrels, broken hammers, and many
small-caliber guns and pistols.
The military officers were disap-
pointed by the manner in which
Colonel Lockett's proclamation of dis
armament was obeyed and determined
to give the strikers, mine operators
and citizens one more chance to sur
render their arms voluntarily.
All told, there were 725 arms re-
ceived by the federal commander Sat
urday in the Trinidad district. To
this number the dealers in arms and
ammunition contributed largely, and
citizens surrendered many hunting
guns and small-caliber arms. Very
few weapons which the army officers
considered truly serviceable were re-
ceived

Catania, Sicily, May 11.-An earth
quake Friday night brought death and
destruction to many villages near Mt.
1Etna. The number of dead is Off
cially given as 1879, with about $50 in
jured; but a large portion of the
devastated territory has not been in
spected.
The affected zone extends from
Zaffarana. the highest village on Mt.
-Etna, to the sea between Aci Resale
on the south and Giarre on the north.
1t includes Linera, the center of the
disturbance, Pisano and Santa Vener-
ina.
In Linera ITO persons were killed
and 80 injured. In Bongiardo 13 dead
and 81 injured have been taken from
the ruins. At Cosentini 16 were killed
and many injured.
The district presents a spectacle of
desolation, ruin and death. Peasants
rushed to meet the automobilists, i'm
ploring aid. From the debris agoniz-
ing cries could still be heard. Others
asked that their injured relatives be
taken to Catania, as all train service
was abandoned.
For centuries this region has suf-
fered from earthquakes, owing to the
activity of Mt. AItna. Yet it is rela-
lively thickly populated, the land is
most fertile, vineyards growing with
little attention.
Where Linera stood is a mass of ru-
ins. The village consisted of about
500 inhabitants. A majority of the
people escaped because the shock oc-
CURED when the men and some of the
women were working in the fields.
From the vineyards they saw their
houses falling and when they arrived,
breathless, at their homes, they found
only wreckage,. with some of their
people buried beneath it.
Generals Trabucchi and Maccagatta
are in command of the rescue work,
which is being performed by soldiers,
firemen, policemen and Red Cross
volunteers.

TAMPICO FALLS.
FEDERALS FLEE
GUNBOATS DRIVEN OUT BY EN-

FIGHT IN GULF COAST CITY.
ADMIRAL MAYO REPORTS
BY TAKING COAST STRONGHOLD,
WcTORS NOW IN STRIKING
DISTANCE OF MEXICO CITY.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, May 14-Tampico,
Huerta's strongest post on the
Gulf coast, next to Vera Cruz, fell
into the hands of the rebels after
one of the hardest and most spec
tacular battles of the revolution.
A continuous all day bombardment
with heavy French guns captured
from Huerta's men at Monterey si-
fenced the federal batteries, drove
the federal gunboats out of the har-
Dor and sent the battle=worn defend
ers fleeing from the city.
This information, brought here in Of
ficial and private dispatches, informed
the Washington government that the
rebels now are within striking dis
tance of Mexico City itself.
The logical movement of the vic
tors from Tampico would be to join
forces with those besieging San Luis
Potosi, the most important outpost of
the capital.
The rebels were led to victory by
General Pablo Gonzales; the federals
marshaled in flight by General lara
goa.
Admiral Mayo reported that the
Mexican federal gunboats Bravo and
Zaragoa steamed out of the Panuco
river and anchored near the foreign
warships outside.
The gunboats have been the chief
support of the garrison, and their
flight was accepted by naval officers
here as meaning that the constitutions
alists were about to occupy the own.
That the rebels encountered desper-
ATE resistance in their. final attack on
Tampico and that they were COM
PEELED to carry their fight into the
heart of the town was indicated by
Admiral Mayo's report. He stated that
at o'clock when it was reported that
the rebels had occupied Tampico,
there was heavy rifle firing in the
Plaza and that big gun firing contin-
ued.
The federals were retreating by
way of the railroad leading to San
Luis Potcsi and it was assumed they
hoped to reach Pachuca, the terminus
of a railway line that leads indirectly
to Mexico City.
Officials here believe the escape of
the federal army at Tampico is i'm
probable The railroad between Tam
pico and San Luis Potosi is in the
hands of the constitutionalists.
Few if any foreigners remain in
Tampico, according to the latest re-
ports. A general exodus began when
the news spread that the rebels were
preparing for the final assault.
The constitutionalists first attacked
Tampico last December and fighting
has been virtually continuous since.
Twice they drove the federal garrison
into the town and seemed on the
verge of victory, only to be shelled by
the gunboats and forced to retire.
1t is certain the rebels now will use
Tampico as base in the operations
against Mexico City. South of Tam
pico the nearest federal forces. those
Oh the Mexican railroad, merely are
holding outposts against possible
American advance.
The country between Tampico and
Vera Cruz and inland to the line OF
the Mexican National railroad is bar
ren and mountainous and impossible
for military operations.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver-John Harvey Post of 23S0
Ash street, student at the School Of
Mines at Golden, is an adopted son OF
G. w. Post, the Battle Creek health
food millionaire, who shot and killed
himself at Santa Barbara, Calf. The
foster son, who has lived in Denver
for number of years, probably will
be one of the heirs to the $25,O00,000
estate.
Santa Barbara, Calif.-A coroner's
jury which Investigated the suicide
here of Charles w. Post, GA, the cereal
food millionaire, returned a non-com-
initial verdict simply finding that he
died from the effects of gunshot
wound.
DR.. ]. c. cambridge, his physician,
testified that Post unquestionably
was suffering from temporary insan-
ity when he shot himself.
The testimony of Miss Ella Benson,
the nurse, showed that Post had been
fighting suicidal inclinations for sew
eral weeks past. She said he had a
horror of gun of any kind and that
at his request the firearms were re-
moved from the house.
Post discussed his private financial
affairs with his wife and at his re-
quest Mrs. Post went down town to
transact some business for him. 1t
was while she was away that he shot
himself.
Post said he felt tired, and asked
Miss Ella Benson, his nurse, to leave
the room. She demonstrated at first,
but he insisted that he wished to
sleep, and she left.
AS soon as he was alone, evidently,
he got the rifle, lay down on the bed
put the muzzle in his mouth and
pulled the trigger with his foot. The
nurse rushed into the room upon hear
ing the shot but Posts death had been
instantaneous. Mrs. Post was notified
She bore up well under the shock.
In the last few weeks Post has been
buying real estate adjoining his home
here and laying plans to build a new
residence.
The body was placed aboard spe-
cial car and taken to Los Angeles
The car was attached to the train
East and will arrive at Battle Greek
