TRACK WEST OF DEPOT, AWFUL MINE DISASTER OVER KJXTY DEAD AND MORE THAN A HUNDRED INJURED. The Betalt of nn Explosion in a Mint Shaft Hear McAllister iu Indian Terri tory Chicago's latest Horror Othei Disasters. McAllister, L T.. Jan. 11. All the bodies have "been taken out of the mine: and the list stands now: Sixty-two dead and 117 wounded, and several men can not live twenty-four hours. It was a sad sight to see the f nneral procession which conveyed the unfortnnats miners to their last resting place, niost of whom were laid side by side, the largest fun eral being that of George Lindsay and son, who were ver3' popular. The Cath olic and other two churches were scenes of a succession of services yesterday. At Kebs twenty-five men liave been dig ging graves since Friday, night and day. and it was necessary to hold eight bodies, the graves not being ready. In an interview W. Cameron, superintend ent of tho mines, said: "Thirty-uina men wero killed in the mine and twenty three have died since. The company ?an in no way be held responsible for the explosion, as the mine has been care fully examined by experts, who claim the ventilation was good and there was no gas in any part of the mine. The fault was in the entryman firing his shots contrary to orders, which were not to be fired until -3:30 p. m.. when all the men would be out of the mine. The 190 live men were taken out in seven hours after the explosion, thus showing splendid management. The linos will be clear within ten days and it will take 150 carloads of slate and rock to clear the first passage." Five Explosion Victims. Chicago, Jan. 11. By the death of Henry Oswald, at the county hospital, the list of fatalities caused by Friday's boiler explosion in the Warren Springer building is increased to five.

THE OniO FIGHT ENDED. THE VALPARAISO ASSAULT. Another Baltimore Sailor Gives Evidence Against Chilean OIHomN, San Francisco, Jan. 'J. The investi gation into the assault upon the sailors of the cruiser Baltimore at Valparaiso was resumed at Vallejo. Charles Lan ger, a seaman, testified that lie was in the international trouble with Johnston, who gave evidence directly implicating the Chilean man-of-warsmen, police and soldiers in the killing of Boatswain 3Iatfc Riggin. Langer's testimony was even ntronger than Johnston's. According to Langer, when Riggin rose the first time two policemen came up. They drew short swords and knocked him down again. They then stood back and let the crowd beat him. Afterwards a squad of soldiers approached and marched by twos, under command of a mounted officer. They marched to within six feet from where Johnston was holding Riggin in his arms. Thero they halted and the first two soldiers leveled their rifles and fired at the two American sailors. "I was about fifteen feet off to one side."' said Langer. "No one was between me and them, tho crowd being back of the soldiers at that moment. No other soldiers were fired at by any one. I saw the soldiers level their rifles at the Baltimore and fire. The crowd had drawn back when tho soldiers came up, leaving a clear pass age between Riggin and the soldiers. After the first shot was fired the soldiers pressed forward a little and I could not see the second man who fired, but I am sure it was one of the leading soldiers who fired."

As expected, the Foraker and Sherman men first locked horns in the senatorial caucus on the question of how the ballots should be taken, secret or viva voce. The For aker men urged a secret ballot on the ground that it had been charged that a number of members were being coerced, They wished, they said, to relieve all members of constraint. The Sherman men contended that each member represented a con stituency, that he was supposed to vote their wishes, and they should have the privilege oi Knowinirwbetu erhe represented 'V tented theni. FnL ly an liour was spent in debate on thisquestion. The SENATOR SHERMAK. V016 SCOOU 47 m favor of the viva voce vote to 44 for the secret ballot. It was thus evident that some Sherman men wanted a secret bal lot and some excitement followed -the rote. As the ballot proceeded there was" no lemonstration, except that when Porter if Cleveland, a doubtful man, voted for Foraker, the Foraker men shouted, and when Pudney of Cleveland, another lonbtful man, voted for Sherman, the Sherman men raised a whoop. The first Dallot resulted: Sherman, 53; Foraker. 18; Foster, 1; McKiuley, 1; necessary to i choice, 47. Democrats Caucus.

The Poorer Classes of tho State In Large Band Moving Toward Montsroy Many Malcontents Ready to Flock to Garza's Standard. Demiko, N. IT., Jan.lt. Couriers who arrived here from Ascension, a town on the Mexican border in the state of Chi hnahna, bring reports of a terrible up rising which occurred on Thursday. The town is the most important on tho line, containing 2,000 inhabitants. The Mex ican custom house is also there. For some time past bad feeling nas existed between the adherents of the church party and the officials and supporters of Diaz. The church men are composed of the Tower classes, and the Garzadisturb ances have made them more than usually discontented. Affairs reached a crisis Thursday when the election of tho presi dent, or mayor, of the town was held. Rafael Anchelor, a prominent politician, who had twice held office, was re-elected by a few votes after a most exciting con test. Anchelor was distasteful on ac count of his efforts to inaugurate re foims, and threats wero openly made against his life. Signs of trouble were man ifest all day, but little or no attention was paid to them by the officials. About 4 o'clock in the afternoon a mob of over two hundred men suddenly appeared in the streets and at" once sur rounded the city building. "Without warning they opened fire with shot guns and pistols on the people. Ancuelor was mstantlv killed. Tho mob then took possession of the town, but not without a hard fight between them and the friends of Anchelor. Dur ing the battl three revolutionists were killed and many on both sides fatally wounded, rranco banzo, one of tho leaders of the mob was anion sr those killed. Tl impression prevails hero that this is a movement in support of Garza, bnt Juan De Matta Vasques, second in command of the Mexican cus tom house cuards on the border, ex pressed the opinion that the disturban is purery local and will soon be sup pressed. S-or Pasalgua. the Mexican consul here "las gone to Juarez in order to be m immediate communication with his governm-nt. Troops are reported to be hastening from Chihuahua to the point of outbreak. In the meanwhile the town is m possession of the mob and further bloodshed is expected. Garza's Movements. Sax Antonio, Jan. 11. There is mnch speculation as to the next movement of the Garza revolutionists. That they are reorganizing on Texas soil and dividi into numerous bands with some object in view there remains no longer any doubt. The United States trootswll continue in the field as long as there ;s any indication of the neutrality las being violate!, and they will continue to spend the "me in searching for the Garza gang, as they have been doing f r ine pasi iwo weeics. me proposition of Mexican Minister Romero that there I an international agreement made where by United States troops may be permu ted to cross into Mexico in pursuit of the offenders and vice versa, is not w received by the military officers of this department. They assert that the sol diers of that country would be glad if an opportunity to shoot down and pin -der united States troops, and that evpn the officers would encourage and assist in committing the outrages. General David S. Stanley is of the opinion that thre will be no more seri dus engagements with the Garza men on this side of the border, for the present at least. He states that ho feels assured that they will not attack the government trooos unless cornered. n.ml in tliar. vpnt. ho places confidence in tho fighting abil ity oi tne troops. lno officer whose command is now regarded in the most critical situation is have reached the Palito Blanco ranch, seventeen miles southeast of San Diego, at which place the Mexican authorities ,and General Lorenzo Garcia particular ly, claim that Garza has Ins head quarters. Captain Chase has instruc tions to make a thorough search of the ranch, and the result of the expedition is awaited with much interest and of no little anxiety at department head quarters here. General Uprising Threatened. Sax Antonio, Jan. 11. The startling information was brought here by J. C. Godfrey from Peidras JTegras, Mexico, that there is a general uprising threat ened in the states of Durance Cluhua- hua, Coahuila and Sonora, and that the malcontents are well organized and will flock to the standard of Garza. He states that in parts of Chihuahua the poorer classes have already revolted and are marching in bands of from three to tour nunureu across tuo country, com mitting depredations. The objective point or these torces is said to be Mon terey. The governor of Chihuahua has appealed to President Diaz for more troos to put down the rebellion. Tynanilte at St. Louis.
