Spanish Authorities Uneasy.
Havana, Oct. 15. The recent use of
dynamite by the insurgents along the
line of the railroad is causing the au
thorities grave uneasiness and it has
been considered necessary to employ
some special measure to suppress the
practice. "With a view of checking it,
Captain General Martinez de Campos
has published an order that all trees
and bushes shall be cut down and all
the huts shall be removed within a dis
tance of 200 yards of the railroad track
on both sides. It is further ordered that
no one shall be allowed to approach the
trains. Violators of these orders are to
be summarily courtinartialed. As a
further warning against the use of dy
namite, severe Spanish laws enacted in
Spain in 1694 as a result of the attempt
of Liceo at Barcelona are to be published
here.
Sheriff Interviews Governor Clarke.
Little Kock, Ark., Oct. 14. Sheriff
Houpt of Hot Springs was in the city
and held a long interview with Gov
ernor Clarke. Said he: "My mind has
been fully made up all along as to what
course I would pursue. I intended to
use my authority on the day of the
fight and I would have succeeded.
That crowd would have dumped $500,
000 in Hot Springs and the law would
not have been violated. I had made
arrangements for 500 men Iiad the num
ber been necessary to uphold the law."
He says that Judge Duffle's action in
writing to Governor Clarke for assist
ance was unwarranted.

DURRANT FINISHES THE ORDEAL.
'left' the Stand After Having Been Un
der Fire Three Days.
Sax' Francisco, Oct. 12. After a
three days' crdeal Theodore Durrant
left the witness stand. District Attor
ney Barnes tried again to draw from
the defendant admissions that he wa
well acquainted with the use of bromo
seltzeras it is used in medicine. Dur
xant's reply indicated that he had de
voted the night to a study of the com
pound, as he replied that he had con
versed with Dr. West about it in the
jafl. He was able to give the analysis
and detailed its pathological effect. F01
the first time during the trial Durrant
oday pleaded ignorance. In reply to a
aaestion by Mr. Barnes, he said he did
BOt know what an alibi was until aftci
kis trial began.
- While testifying the prisoner became

'.yi-?; .
&iSE
badly confused at times and when ques
tioned regarding his experience at
Cooper medical college became so mixed
in his dates that he had to refer to a
card that he carried in his pocket to set
himself right. He became noticeably
confused and rather testy in his replies
when examined in regard to the inter
view that he had with Gilbert Graham,
a fellow student, at the city prison,
when the prosecution claims Durrant
asked Graham to furnish him with a
copy of the notes of Dr. Cheney's lect
ure, remarking, "If I had those notes I
would be able to prove au alibi." Dur
rant, in his dogged way, denied abso
lutely that he made such a declaration
and tried to explain by testifying that
Graham came to him with proffers -of
assistance, going so far as to inquire
anxioasby if Durrant had the notes to
Dr. Cheney's lecture.
Durrant finally admitted that he
asked Graham to furnish him with the
notes, but he testified that he had made
tho request at the advice of his attorneys
who instructed him to get the notes
from students of his class and compare
them with his own. District Attorney
Barnes again tried to force Durrant to
admit that he had written a statement
of his case and inclosed it in an en
velope to his attorneys with instructions
"To open it if he was convicted and to
return it if he was notconvicted. ' ' Dur
rant was asked if he did' not recently
show an envelope bearing such an in
scription to Miss Carrie Cunningham, a
local newspaper reporter. Durrant re
plied emphatically that he had not.

big fire in the furnace under the boiler
in the shaf thoose and left' for his sup
per. While he was gone the timber ad
jacent to the furnace caught fire and
the flames reached the cable running
down the f&aft.

tempted to hoist tho :. with the men,
but the cable broke aud they fell to the
bottom of the shaft. The fall was not
over three feet and they were unin
jured. Payne was foreman of the little gang
of miners, and they followed him to
one of the cells, thinking they could
bank themselves in and prevent the
smoke ' from entering. The cell was
only 100 feet from where the wood was
burning, but before .they could enter
and build up the barricade they were
suffocated with smoke.
They were found almost in a heap,'!
one body lying across the three others.
Evidences of superhuman strength were
found in the moving of great rocks and
chunks of coal to stop up the passage
way that told how hard the imprisoned
men had worked to save their lives.
