was fined for contempt by Judge Edward
Sweeny. Ex-Assemblyman T. W. H.
Shanahan represents the plaintiff and ex-
Senator Frank Sprague and General W.
D. Tillotson the defendant. In addressing
the court Shanahan became excited and
insinuated that the court was deciding
the case before hearing the evidence.
Judge Sweeny silenced the attorney, ad
ministered a scathing, rebuke and fined
Shanahan $20 for contempt.:
Shanahan thought better of his words
and declared that he believed the court
fair and capable. Drawing' out two '$10
bills, he said the fine would cripple him
financially. Judge Sweeny finally remit
ted the fine and General Tillotson's sug
gestion to adjourn court for the time was

JUNBAU, Alaska, Oct. 7 (via Seattle,
Oct. 11).— There was k frightful accident
at the Treadwell mine on Douglass Island
at 11:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. A
party of five miners were drifting in the
440-foot level, and, from appearances after
the accident, they recklessly attempted
to open a box of powder with a pick.
An explosion followed, which killed four
men and seriously wounded the fifth. ' Joe
Feratta was blown to atoms, and William
Moore, George^Dusing and an Italian
called Louie were horribly mangled. The
fifth man is at the hosnital, seriously in

TREKA, Oct. 11.— Henry Koester, City
Trustee and financier, is dead from a self
inflicted pistol wound in the head. Koes
ter shot himself in an outbuilding at his
new home on Tuesday. When found he
was conscious. Dr. Collar found that the
bullet had gone into* the "right ear, rang
ing upward and lodging in -the brain.
Koester's vitality, however, was remark
able, as he lingered until yesterday. There
seems to be no doubt that the deed was
committed while Koester was suffering
from mental aberration.
For several years Henry Koester r con
ducted the Miners' Home and he accumu
lated a competency, retiring only recently
from the active management of that in
stitution. He built a fine home and was
in a position to enjoy life when he took
means to end it. In the last city election
he was chosen to fill the position of Trus
tee, and he was a useful member of the
board. He was comparatively a young
man, being in his forty-flrst year, and
was a native of California. His family
consists of a wife and two children, a girl
and a boy.

DENVER, Oct. 11— A sensation was

was found near his home, Jefferson, Park
County, Colo., last Wednesday. Vallie
was station agent for tlie Colorado and
Southern Railway at Jefferson. His head
had been beaten to a pulp with a club.
The Coroner's verdict charged the crime
to Charles Bauer, a man formerly em
ployed by Vallle on a ranch. Charges
were made that Baker's motive for the
crime was love for Mrs. Vallie. who \ras
much younger than her husband. Mrs.
Valiie was arrested in Denver to-night
upon the request of the Park County au
thorities.
SALINAS, Oct. U.— Dense clouds of
smoke enveloped Salinas to-night and the
skies were lighted up in several directions
by forest fires in the Santa Lucia and
Gabilan hills. Conflagrations started in
the neighborhood of Agenda and spread
southward toward King City. It is re
ported that hunters left a camp fire burn
ing, which Ignited the underbrush and the
flames were soon getting beyond control.
Nearly 300 acres of timber have been de
stroyed and the fire is unchecked.
The Santa Lucia range fire started
near the old reservoir of the Pacific Im
provement Company, back of Monterey
and Pacific Grove. Several hundred acres
of pines, cypress, scrub oak, ' manzanita
and other timber have been consumed and
the flames are spreading. The fire can
be seen from Salinas. Unless rain falls
or the fires can be got under control by
the men fighting them the Joss will be
very heavy.
During the day the heat here has been
intolerable because of the fire. To-night
the atmosphere Is stifling and smoky.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 11.— In com
pliance with a request from Washington
the search by Ottoman troops for the ab
ductors of Miss Stone, the American mis
sionary, has been abandoned, it being
feared that the brigands would kill her
should they be closely pursued. Arrange-
The United States is not willing, how
ever, to authorize any preparations at this
time on the part of the Bulgarian or the
Turkish Government to attack the brig
ands immediately after Miss Stone's re
lease. Such preparations were made by
the Greek Government In 1870, in the case
of the party of English and Italian visit
ors held captive by brigands, and the lat
ter, in order to facilitate their escape,
killed their prisoners. It is surprising to
the United States that the abductors of
Miss Stone have not coupled with the de
mand for ransom a demand for amnesty,
as was done in 1870 by the Greek brigands.
Great Britain urged upon Greece to
grant the amnesty desired, but the Athens
Government was unable to comply on ac
count of constitutional limitations, though
It agreed to permit an English warship to
convey the men safely to Malta after they
had released their prisoners. The United
States would undoubtedly go as far as
Great Britain did, and if necessary will
urge Bulgaria and Turkey to grant am
nesty to Miss Stone's captors.
May Grant Amnesty.
The State Department understood that
the Turkish Government had so disposed
its troops along the frontier that the
brigands would be unable to enter into the
interior of the country. It is believed
here that the brigands are moving from
place to place along the boundary line,
seeking refuge first in Bulgarian and then
in Turkish territory. To both govern
ments the United States is making most
urgent representations not to authorize
an attack. Only by fair dealing, in the
opinion of this Government, can Miss
Stone be rescued. After careful considera
tion of the matter the authorities have
decided that the wisest course is to ran
som Miss Stone, and once she is released
and actually in safety, then the Bulgarian
or Turkish Government will be urged to
relieve the countries of the disgrace of
brigandage.
ALL BUREAU. 1406 G STREET,
/f N. W., "WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—
(i . Fears even deeper than those
hitherto entertained are felt to
night for Miss Stone, the Ameri
can missionary, held captive by Bulgarian
brigands. Her situation is most desper
ate. She is in the hands of men who will
not hesitate to commit murder if they
themselves believe that the crime will
facilitate their escape. Aware that the
military forces of Bulgaria and the Turk
ish Government are prepared to attack
them at a favorable opportunity, Miss
Stone's abductors must receive the ran
som without delay or else they will kill
their captive. The time limit fixed for the
payment of the ramsom expired on Tues
day. It is thus three days overdue, and
the sum demanded has not yet been
raised. That the brigands appreciate the
dangerous situation in which they have
tound themselves is shown by the fact of
their return into Turkish territory.
Watkins testified that the train arrived
st Wenatchee at S:10 o'clock. It is yet to
be decided who was at the key in Spokane
•when the train was cleared at Wenatchee,
as evidence concerning the man on duty

In a great measure, responsible for tho

two flat cars and a light motor car, start
ed out 'of Sherman for Laurel Canyon,
two miles east. Eleven or twelve laborers
were riding: on' the flat cars In charge of
Foreman. Reuter. A dense fog: made it
impossible-, to see beyond the train's
length.
About the same time a lemon train, con
sisting of two heavily loaded freight cars
and a heavy motor car, left the packing
house at Colegrove, west bound. The
grade west to Sherman is down hill,
which fact, coupled with slippery rails
from the fog, caused the train to shoot
down hill at a high speed. Just east of
the scene of the I accident there ia a sharp
curve. On rounding this Motorman
Prltchard of the lemon train saw the
work train and called to the conductor
and another man to jump, at the same
time leaping: from the -flying car. The
trains came together with a crash, the
heavier motor climbing over the work
train arid crushing the laborers on tho
flat cars. Motorman Vinson of the work
train stuck to his post and was killed.
