A frightful runaway In which one of the pallbearers, Guy Mowrey, of Qrovanlu, had both bones of his right leg between the knee and ankle broken and crushed and the other pallbearers more or less cut up and bruised, marked the ending of the funeral of Elliott Morgan Pegg, of Danville, the latest appointee to the naval academy from this Congressional district, who died a victim of appendicitis.Five States. of an Adventure.

Monarch Asks Her to Share His Throne. He Has Not Abandoned Hope of Peace. The funeral cortege was returning from the Odd Fellows' cemetery and from the first it was evident that the ■driver was unable to properly handle the horses, which were very highspirited. Before the accident occurred the horses once got beyond the driver's control, but he finally managed to get them down to a walk. When they reached the Grove Presbyterian church, on Bloom street, where there is a heavy grade the horses broke beyond control, and the situation rapidly grew serious, all tho more so because there was no brake on the covered barouche to which they were driving. Jolo, Aug. 18, via Manila, Aug. 22.— Beveral Incidents have bappeued to make the visit of Secretary Tuft, Miss Roosevelt and the members of the government party touring the fnr east memorable. The most remarkable of these concerns the daughter of the president. Oyster Bay, N. Y.f Aug. 22.—It is believed that Japan has consented to modify her demands on Itussia. Another visit to the president was paid by ,Baron Kaneko, who is now generally regarded as the confidential representative In the United States of the Tokyo government, and this time the visit was not at the president's invitation. This is regarded as Indicating some new decision in Tokyo In response to representations made by the president. Washington, Aug. 22.—Three enlisted men who perished and one officer who still lives have been pronounced responsible for the boiler explosion which wrecked the gunbout Bennington ut San Diego, Oil., on July 21 and killed and wounded halt' the ship'* company. St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 22.—A severe eartluiuuke shock was felt throughout eastern Missouri, western Illinois, southern Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee at 11:08 o'clock last night. At Cairo and ltiehvlew, III., and several points In Kentucky and Tennessee, the vibrations are said to have been accompanied by a loud rumbling noise which caused a panic among citizens. The report of the court of Inquiry, consisting of Commodore II. N. Stevenson, retired; Cnptalu Thomas S. I'lielps and Cnptalu E. K. Moore, received by Secretary Bonapnrte recommends that Ensign Charles T. Wade, who was in charge of the engineering department of the ship, be court niartlaled because of neglect of duty in accepting the word of his subordinates that the sufety valve of the boiler which exploded had been overhauled in March, 1005, Instead of seeing to its overhauling himself. The sultan of Sulu, Iladji Mohammed Jamalul Klrnui, who has six wives already, has'offered his hand In marriage to Miss Roosevelt and has expressed bis desire to make the president's daughter sultana of the Sulu archipelago. The manner in which Miss Roosevelt answered this gallant act on the part of the Mohammedan is not known to the other members of the Junket. On many occasions since her departure from the United States ban Miss Roosevelt been called upon to exercise her tact and ready wit In meeting the celebrities to whom she lias been presented, and that she was ready with some apt reply to this most embarrassing offer is a foregone conclusion.Moat places report two shocks, though only one was felt here. It was so severe as to throw many out of bqds and chairs In some Instances, and to cause the wildest kind of alarm. In north and west parts of the city hundreds ran out Into the streets In night gowns. In Belleville and East St. Louis panic-stricken people crowded the streets. The weather bureau took note of the disturbance and reported the shock the most severe in 20 years. The governor also appointed tho following delegates from Pennsylvania to the American Road Makers' annual convention and good roadh celebration at Port Huron. Mich., Aug. 29-31: Jonathan L. Blake, Ogontz; Samuel Brown, Krie; Col. J. W. Dakford, Scranton; Fred W. Patterson, Pittsburg; Hibbard B. Worrell, Meadow Brook, and D. M. Campsey, Claysville.With the horses going at a breakneck speed the driver managed to turn them into the old cemetery on Bloom street and with the horses tearing through the cemetery the occupants jumped. All escaped serious injury except Mowrey, who struck the ground in such a manner that he fractured both bones of the right leg between the knee and ankle. When Baron Kaneko visited the president last Friday he plainly intimated that his mysterious mission had coine to an end and that there would be no necessity for him to return. Within an hour of his departure the president sent a message to Portsmouth which brought Baron Rosen to Sagamore Hill STILL MORE TROUBLE The city hall and Four Courts buildings were shaken violently. The latter did not show any ill effects from the shock, although the building is one of the oldest In the city. WAGES SATISFACTORY. Court House Contract Held Valve Shut Off by Mistake. It is now known here that after the envoys bad adjourned on Friday and when apparently there wa- nbthing left for them to do but to sign the protocols recording their agreements and disagreements President Roosevelt again tendered his- good oliices to Ja; pan and notified Baron Kaneko that he would summon one of the Russian envoys and follow a similar course in Russia's case. At the same time Baron Kaneko was asked to sound ills government as to whether in the interest of peace certain concessions could not be made by Japan that would enable Russia to conclude a treaty with less damage to her national honor. In the opinion of the court tlic explosion was caused by excessive steum pressure, which the safety valve failed to relieve because It had been shut off by mistake by D. N. Holland, a fireman. It is found that Frank IDe Courtaui, an oiler, failed to note that the steam gauge did not register pressure and that Chief Machinist's Mate E. B. Ferguson failed to Inspect the boiler while steam was being raised. As these men died no further proceedings can be takeu in their case. SCHMALTZ IN CONTROL Up Again. Paducah, Ky., Aug. 22.—An earthquake shock was felt here last night at 11:10 o'clock. The vibration seemed to be from east to west. Telephone messages Jirom neighboring towns show that the shock was general in this part of the state and quite severe.In Kentucky Such is the Report From Tamaqua District Miners. Secretary Taft and party arrived here at noon Friday and immediately proceeded to the parade ground to witness the elaborate programme prepared for their entertainment. Columbia Stone Company Today Made Brothers Base Ball Trouble Demand for $20,000 Alleged to Ih- Has Been Settled. Due Tliein Cnder a Contract for Stone Furnished for In Gorgeous Attire. Convention, However, Will Probably tlic New Court House. At a Meeting of tlic Stockholders lie Owensboro, Ky., Aug. 22.—Owensboro and Evansville were disturbed by an earthquake at 11:05 o'clock last night. Two shocks were felt. Citizens of Owensboro were greatly frightened. Many rushed from their homes. No damage was done. The sultan, clad in his most gorgeous attire and surrounded by all the Moro diguiturles in their barbaric robes of office, advanced to meet tho secretary of war and party. He extended his band to the secretary anil then turned to Miss Roosevelt. Place Itself on Record us Fuvoring Somewhat of a sensation was created in Wilkesbarre this morning, when it became known that the county commissioners had received from the Columbia Stone Co. a communication containing a demand for Jf2((,0UU alleged to be due the company for stone furnished for the new court house. The®Coiumbla Co. is the one in which relatives of Architect Osterling are interested, and it lias figured conspicuously In the notorious court house trouble for some months past. In the communication received lDy the commissioners today, the stone company alleges that it had a contract with Wilson J. Smith to furnish the stone for the new building. They further say that under the terms of this contract J20.000 is now due the company, and they ask that the commissioners pay this money into court for their benefit. The Columbia Co. furnished a large quantity of stone for the court house wnen the work was lirst started. Some of this stone is in the building, while a considerable quantity lies 011 the court house ground. When Contractor Smith sublet the contract for the stone work to the Carlucct Stone Co.. of Scranton, the Carluccl Co. furnished stone for Itself from its own quarries, refusing to use any other, inasmuch as the stone they quarried was the kind called for in the contract. Contractor Smith, when shown the communication from the Columbia Co., said that 110 contract existed between him and the Columbia Co. This new development has but added to the legal tangle that has resulted from the building of the new court house, and it is likely to put an end to the negotiations that have been in progress during the past weeks for the transfer of the general contract from Mr. Smith to the firm of Doyle & Doak. of Philadelphia. I11 fact a member of the Arm hus already stated that they cannot thing of taking over the contract with such a claim as that filed today hanging tire. IIoUKlit l'p AH the Stock—Some a Demand for Recognition of Secretary Bonaparte, who promised the service that nobody would be made a scapegoat and the public that nobody would lie whitewashed, has not yet acted 011 the recommendation for court martial of lCnsign Wade. Presumably he is awaiting word from President Roosevelt. The report of the hoard reflects 011 nobody else, but commends the courage and self forgetful ness of officers and men in the hour of danger. iliteli on Money Due Players tlie Villon and uit Kiglit- llus Not Yet Been llour Day Settled. • Tamaqua, Pa., Aug. 22.—Great Interest is attached to the annual convention of sub-district No. 1, of the United Mine Workers, which is in session here, for the reason that this Is the last time the body will assemble before the expiration of the present wage agreement on April 1, 1906. Gave President Japan's Answer. The recent disagreement among the stockholders of the Brothers' base ball team over the release of several players by Manager Schmaltz lias been practically settled. After negotiating With the team members and the released players, who were the owners of stock, an agreement was reached whereby P. R. Schmaltz, the manager, bought up the stock of all the other members and they, In turn, released all their rights in the matter. As the matter stands now, Manager Schmaltz Is the owner of the team and has full control of the grounds. He pays all the players so much per game, and has the absolute right to release any of them. In Missouri, There seems to be little room for doubt that Baron Kaneko on his latest trip here brought the president Japan's answer and that this was drawn up at the cabinet meeting which was held at Tokyo of) Sunday. St. Charles, Mo., Aug. 22.—Two severe earthquake shocks were felt here at 11:08 last night. Doors, windows, dishes and light articles of furniture were shaken and rattled. Many persons were awakened and fled to the streets. His Intelligent dark face took on an expression of great pleasure, and he made a spcech lu Ids native tongue to the daughter of the president as be bowed low before her As Miss Roosevelt extended her hand he bent low over It and so far as the other members of the party could see kissed it with an evidence of polished gollantry that would have done justice to any western courtier. Miss Roosevelt took the attention in the proper spirit, but it was plalu to be seen that she was greatly amused. While no official statement has been given out' It is safe to say that the sub-district will place itself on record as favoring recognition of the union, umJ probably an eight-hour law. Following Baron Kaneko's visit President Roosevelt bad his acting secretary, Mr. Barnes, with him for two hours, lu addition to the matter which the barou laid presented to him the president received and considered an accumulation of dispatches and letters. Later important messages were received from Portsmouth, the responses to which occupied the president's attention for a considerable time. In Illinois. Springfield, III., Aug. 22.—This city experienced an earthquake shock at 11:12 o'clock last night. The disturbance lasted fully a minute. Apparently the waves moved from west to east as persons in their bqds at tho time report a rocking In this direction. Dishes were rattled in pantries and closets, windows were shaken In their casements, and there were other evidences of the disturbance. Cut His Throat With a Sickle, Baltimore, Aug. 22. — John Shirley, aged about twenty-three years, met death in a singular manner at the plant of the-Crawford Automobile company in llagerstowu. Md., says a special to the American. Ilis throat was cut and the Jugular vein severed by a sickle, and he died before medical aid could reach him. Mr. Shirley was engaged in sharpening a sickle on an emery wheel when tiie accident occurred. In some unaccountable way the handle of the sickle came off, and the sharp blade ■flew up aud struck hlui across the neck. It is improbable that an advance over the present sliding scale, based upon the average price of coal of domestic sizes at tide water, being apparently satisfactory to the miners as a whole. The sultan led the way to a Brand stand, where Heats were reserved In the front row for Secretary Taft and Miss Roosevelt. What Schmaltz paid for the stock has not been mentioned, but the former stockholders say he gave them the price they demanded. One slight disagreement still exists between the two parties to the transfer of stock. The stockholder-players, according to the original agreement, were to be paid so much per game and they claim that for several games this season no apportionment was made to them. They want their pay for these games, and when this question is settled the entire matter shall have been closed. At yesterday's session John McElhonny, president or the sub-dlstiict, presented u table showing the averago rate of wages received by the miners and colliery employes under the sliding scale since Oct., 1 i»02. This statement will be laid before the annual convention of district No. 7 next Jan- Not the slightest Indication of the character of the correspondence was permitted to become public. The president maintains that If any publication is made concerning the peace negotiations it must be authorized by the representatives of one of the powers directly interested. The upheaval was followed by a thunderstorm. Thousands of Moros, residents of Jolo and the neighboring islands, were present In all their ancient regalia and took part In the festivities that followed. Everything was wonderfully picturesque. In the afternoon a scries of bullfights was provided for the members of the party, aud all attended in spite of on aversion they all had for such demonstrations. Rfchview, 111., Aug. 22.—At about 11:08 last night a severe earthquake was felt here which lasted about 20 seconds and caused much alarm. The shock made a noise like a train uary Cairo, 111., Aug. 22.—An earthquake shock occurred here at 11:11 last night, continuing about one minute and shook the strongest buildings In tho city. Hundreds took refuge In the streets. passing. A feature of the session was the unprecedented spectacle of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Co. co-operating with the union. This came about through the action of the sub-district ollicei's in asking W. I). Zehner, the superintendent of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Co., to give his views on the condition of the Lansford Beneficial association, which is maintained by the company and the men for the purpose of aiding miners who are injured and the families of those who lope their lives. Baron Kaueko both on his arrival and departure wore the inscrutable, apologetic smile and the jovial air that had previously stood him in such good stead lu dealing with the newspaper correspondents here. When the baron left Sagamore Hill lie said in reply to questions: Miser Dies Amid Her Cats. New York, Aug. 2*2.—Mrs. Mar.v Tull, agoCl aud wealthy, was found dead in a squalid room of the four story tenement she owned at 743 Third avenue. When the dismal wailing of a dozen eats in her rooms told that something was wrong the door was opened liy her neighbors, and for the lirst time in nearly thirty years outsiders entered her home. Just how tnueh property and money Mrs. Tull possessed Is not known, but enough was discovered by the police to indicate that her fortune must amount to nearly $100,000. The disaffection in the team arose first over an order given by Manager Schmaltz for the release of Touhill. Several men\bers of the club, claiming they had equal rights with the manager in the management of the team, objected to the action of Schmaltz and the result was that three members were debarred. At first it seemed likely that legal action would be taken to dispose of the matter but a more amicable means was finally adopted. The 8ultan "Pop*." During the interval Secretary Taft and Miss Roosevelt were [(resented with numerous gifts by the sultan, some of which are costly. Then it was that the sultan solemnly offered his hand in marriage to Miss Roosevelt, expressing his desire to make her his sultana and hoping that she would remain among his people and make them better Americans. Cold Springs, Ind., Aug. 22.—An earthquake of great magnitude occurred here about 11 o'clock last night which made the buildings sway to and fro. There were three or four distinct shocks which lasted several In Indiana. "I can say nothing regarding the purpose of my visit to the president. I wish I could be more communicative.

In Tennessee, In a communication Mr. Zchner stilted that under the present Memphis, Tenn., Aug. 22.—A distinctly felt earthquake shock alarmed this city at 11:15 last night, coming in two vibrations about two minutes apart.

Mr. Garvin came to his death by being run over by a heavy wagon, which hurt him Internally. He was on his way to the great temperance demonstration In Wilkesbarre on Aug. 10th, and while the large wagon on which he was riding was going at a good rate of speed, he was thrown between the horses as thC3 vehicle struck a ditch. The wheels passed over his abdomen and he was hurried to a Wilkesbarre hospital, where it was found that he could not recover. He expired Sunday afternoon. Deceased was born In England and located in Tesckow many years ago. He then moved with his parents to Beaver Brook, thence to Wilkesbarre, where he was married to Miss Bridget McGlnty.

A frightful runaway In which one of the pallbearers, Guy Mowrey, of Qrovanlu, had both bones of his right leg between the knee and ankle broken and crushed and the other pallbearers more or less cut up and bruised, marked the ending of the funeral of Elliott Morgan Pegg, of Danville, the latest appointee to the naval academy from this Congressional district, who died a victim of appendicitis.Five States. of an Adventure.

The funeral cortege was returning from the Odd Fellows' cemetery and from the first it was evident that the ■driver was unable to properly handle the horses, which were very highspirited. Before the accident occurred the horses once got beyond the driver's control, but he finally managed to get them down to a walk. When they reached the Grove Presbyterian church, on Bloom street, where there is a heavy grade the horses broke beyond control, and the situation rapidly grew serious, all tho more so because there was no brake on the covered barouche to which they were driving. Jolo, Aug. 18, via Manila, Aug. 22.— Beveral Incidents have bappeued to make the visit of Secretary Tuft, Miss Roosevelt and the members of the government party touring the fnr east memorable. The most remarkable of these concerns the daughter of the president. Oyster Bay, N. Y.f Aug. 22.—It is believed that Japan has consented to modify her demands on Itussia. Another visit to the president was paid by ,Baron Kaneko, who is now generally regarded as the confidential representative In the United States of the Tokyo government, and this time the visit was not at the president's invitation. This is regarded as Indicating some new decision in Tokyo In response to representations made by the president. Washington, Aug. 22.—Three enlisted men who perished and one officer who still lives have been pronounced responsible for the boiler explosion which wrecked the gunbout Bennington ut San Diego, Oil., on July 21 and killed and wounded halt' the ship'* company. St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 22.—A severe eartluiuuke shock was felt throughout eastern Missouri, western Illinois, southern Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee at 11:08 o'clock last night. At Cairo and ltiehvlew, III., and several points In Kentucky and Tennessee, the vibrations are said to have been accompanied by a loud rumbling noise which caused a panic among citizens. The report of the court of Inquiry, consisting of Commodore II. N. Stevenson, retired; Cnptalu Thomas S. I'lielps and Cnptalu E. K. Moore, received by Secretary Bonapnrte recommends that Ensign Charles T. Wade, who was in charge of the engineering department of the ship, be court niartlaled because of neglect of duty in accepting the word of his subordinates that the sufety valve of the boiler which exploded had been overhauled in March, 1005, Instead of seeing to its overhauling himself. The sultan of Sulu, Iladji Mohammed Jamalul Klrnui, who has six wives already, has'offered his hand In marriage to Miss Roosevelt and has expressed bis desire to make the president's daughter sultana of the Sulu archipelago. The manner in which Miss Roosevelt answered this gallant act on the part of the Mohammedan is not known to the other members of the Junket. On many occasions since her departure from the United States ban Miss Roosevelt been called upon to exercise her tact and ready wit In meeting the celebrities to whom she lias been presented, and that she was ready with some apt reply to this most embarrassing offer is a foregone conclusion.Moat places report two shocks, though only one was felt here. It was so severe as to throw many out of bqds and chairs In some Instances, and to cause the wildest kind of alarm. In north and west parts of the city hundreds ran out Into the streets In night gowns. In Belleville and East St. Louis panic-stricken people crowded the streets. The weather bureau took note of the disturbance and reported the shock the most severe in 20 years. The governor also appointed tho following delegates from Pennsylvania to the American Road Makers' annual convention and good roadh celebration at Port Huron. Mich., Aug. 29-31: Jonathan L. Blake, Ogontz; Samuel Brown, Krie; Col. J. W. Dakford, Scranton; Fred W. Patterson, Pittsburg; Hibbard B. Worrell, Meadow Brook, and D. M. Campsey, Claysville.With the horses going at a breakneck speed the driver managed to turn them into the old cemetery on Bloom street and with the horses tearing through the cemetery the occupants jumped. All escaped serious injury except Mowrey, who struck the ground in such a manner that he fractured both bones of the right leg between the knee and ankle. When Baron Kaneko visited the president last Friday he plainly intimated that his mysterious mission had coine to an end and that there would be no necessity for him to return. Within an hour of his departure the president sent a message to Portsmouth which brought Baron Rosen to Sagamore Hill STILL MORE TROUBLE The city hall and Four Courts buildings were shaken violently. The latter did not show any ill effects from the shock, although the building is one of the oldest In the city. WAGES SATISFACTORY. Court House Contract Held Valve Shut Off by Mistake. It is now known here that after the envoys bad adjourned on Friday and when apparently there wa- nbthing left for them to do but to sign the protocols recording their agreements and disagreements President Roosevelt again tendered his- good oliices to Ja; pan and notified Baron Kaneko that he would summon one of the Russian envoys and follow a similar course in Russia's case. At the same time Baron Kaneko was asked to sound ills government as to whether in the interest of peace certain concessions could not be made by Japan that would enable Russia to conclude a treaty with less damage to her national honor. In the opinion of the court tlic explosion was caused by excessive steum pressure, which the safety valve failed to relieve because It had been shut off by mistake by D. N. Holland, a fireman. It is found that Frank IDe Courtaui, an oiler, failed to note that the steam gauge did not register pressure and that Chief Machinist's Mate E. B. Ferguson failed to Inspect the boiler while steam was being raised. As these men died no further proceedings can be takeu in their case. SCHMALTZ IN CONTROL Up Again. Paducah, Ky., Aug. 22.—An earthquake shock was felt here last night at 11:10 o'clock. The vibration seemed to be from east to west. Telephone messages Jirom neighboring towns show that the shock was general in this part of the state and quite severe.In Kentucky Such is the Report From Tamaqua District Miners. Secretary Taft and party arrived here at noon Friday and immediately proceeded to the parade ground to witness the elaborate programme prepared for their entertainment. Columbia Stone Company Today Made Brothers Base Ball Trouble Demand for $20,000 Alleged to Ih- Has Been Settled. Due Tliein Cnder a Contract for Stone Furnished for In Gorgeous Attire. Convention, However, Will Probably tlic New Court House. At a Meeting of tlic Stockholders lie Owensboro, Ky., Aug. 22.—Owensboro and Evansville were disturbed by an earthquake at 11:05 o'clock last night. Two shocks were felt. Citizens of Owensboro were greatly frightened. Many rushed from their homes. No damage was done. The sultan, clad in his most gorgeous attire and surrounded by all the Moro diguiturles in their barbaric robes of office, advanced to meet tho secretary of war and party. He extended his band to the secretary anil then turned to Miss Roosevelt. Place Itself on Record us Fuvoring Somewhat of a sensation was created in Wilkesbarre this morning, when it became known that the county commissioners had received from the Columbia Stone Co. a communication containing a demand for Jf2((,0UU alleged to be due the company for stone furnished for the new court house. The®Coiumbla Co. is the one in which relatives of Architect Osterling are interested, and it lias figured conspicuously In the notorious court house trouble for some months past. In the communication received lDy the commissioners today, the stone company alleges that it had a contract with Wilson J. Smith to furnish the stone for the new building. They further say that under the terms of this contract J20.000 is now due the company, and they ask that the commissioners pay this money into court for their benefit. The Columbia Co. furnished a large quantity of stone for the court house wnen the work was lirst started. Some of this stone is in the building, while a considerable quantity lies 011 the court house ground. When Contractor Smith sublet the contract for the stone work to the Carlucct Stone Co.. of Scranton, the Carluccl Co. furnished stone for Itself from its own quarries, refusing to use any other, inasmuch as the stone they quarried was the kind called for in the contract. Contractor Smith, when shown the communication from the Columbia Co., said that 110 contract existed between him and the Columbia Co. This new development has but added to the legal tangle that has resulted from the building of the new court house, and it is likely to put an end to the negotiations that have been in progress during the past weeks for the transfer of the general contract from Mr. Smith to the firm of Doyle & Doak. of Philadelphia. I11 fact a member of the Arm hus already stated that they cannot thing of taking over the contract with such a claim as that filed today hanging tire. IIoUKlit l'p AH the Stock—Some a Demand for Recognition of Secretary Bonaparte, who promised the service that nobody would be made a scapegoat and the public that nobody would lie whitewashed, has not yet acted 011 the recommendation for court martial of lCnsign Wade. Presumably he is awaiting word from President Roosevelt. The report of the hoard reflects 011 nobody else, but commends the courage and self forgetful ness of officers and men in the hour of danger. iliteli on Money Due Players tlie Villon and uit Kiglit- llus Not Yet Been llour Day Settled. • Tamaqua, Pa., Aug. 22.—Great Interest is attached to the annual convention of sub-district No. 1, of the United Mine Workers, which is in session here, for the reason that this Is the last time the body will assemble before the expiration of the present wage agreement on April 1, 1906. Gave President Japan's Answer. The recent disagreement among the stockholders of the Brothers' base ball team over the release of several players by Manager Schmaltz lias been practically settled. After negotiating With the team members and the released players, who were the owners of stock, an agreement was reached whereby P. R. Schmaltz, the manager, bought up the stock of all the other members and they, In turn, released all their rights in the matter. As the matter stands now, Manager Schmaltz Is the owner of the team and has full control of the grounds. He pays all the players so much per game, and has the absolute right to release any of them. In Missouri, There seems to be little room for doubt that Baron Kaneko on his latest trip here brought the president Japan's answer and that this was drawn up at the cabinet meeting which was held at Tokyo of) Sunday. St. Charles, Mo., Aug. 22.—Two severe earthquake shocks were felt here at 11:08 last night. Doors, windows, dishes and light articles of furniture were shaken and rattled. Many persons were awakened and fled to the streets. His Intelligent dark face took on an expression of great pleasure, and he made a spcech lu Ids native tongue to the daughter of the president as be bowed low before her As Miss Roosevelt extended her hand he bent low over It and so far as the other members of the party could see kissed it with an evidence of polished gollantry that would have done justice to any western courtier. Miss Roosevelt took the attention in the proper spirit, but it was plalu to be seen that she was greatly amused. While no official statement has been given out' It is safe to say that the sub-district will place itself on record as favoring recognition of the union, umJ probably an eight-hour law. Following Baron Kaneko's visit President Roosevelt bad his acting secretary, Mr. Barnes, with him for two hours, lu addition to the matter which the barou laid presented to him the president received and considered an accumulation of dispatches and letters. Later important messages were received from Portsmouth, the responses to which occupied the president's attention for a considerable time. In Illinois. Springfield, III., Aug. 22.—This city experienced an earthquake shock at 11:12 o'clock last night. The disturbance lasted fully a minute. Apparently the waves moved from west to east as persons in their bqds at tho time report a rocking In this direction. Dishes were rattled in pantries and closets, windows were shaken In their casements, and there were other evidences of the disturbance. Cut His Throat With a Sickle, Baltimore, Aug. 22. — John Shirley, aged about twenty-three years, met death in a singular manner at the plant of the-Crawford Automobile company in llagerstowu. Md., says a special to the American. Ilis throat was cut and the Jugular vein severed by a sickle, and he died before medical aid could reach him. Mr. Shirley was engaged in sharpening a sickle on an emery wheel when tiie accident occurred. In some unaccountable way the handle of the sickle came off, and the sharp blade ■flew up aud struck hlui across the neck. It is improbable that an advance over the present sliding scale, based upon the average price of coal of domestic sizes at tide water, being apparently satisfactory to the miners as a whole. The sultan led the way to a Brand stand, where Heats were reserved In the front row for Secretary Taft and Miss Roosevelt. What Schmaltz paid for the stock has not been mentioned, but the former stockholders say he gave them the price they demanded. One slight disagreement still exists between the two parties to the transfer of stock. The stockholder-players, according to the original agreement, were to be paid so much per game and they claim that for several games this season no apportionment was made to them. They want their pay for these games, and when this question is settled the entire matter shall have been closed. At yesterday's session John McElhonny, president or the sub-dlstiict, presented u table showing the averago rate of wages received by the miners and colliery employes under the sliding scale since Oct., 1 i»02. This statement will be laid before the annual convention of district No. 7 next Jan- Not the slightest Indication of the character of the correspondence was permitted to become public. The president maintains that If any publication is made concerning the peace negotiations it must be authorized by the representatives of one of the powers directly interested. The upheaval was followed by a thunderstorm. Thousands of Moros, residents of Jolo and the neighboring islands, were present In all their ancient regalia and took part In the festivities that followed. Everything was wonderfully picturesque. In the afternoon a scries of bullfights was provided for the members of the party, aud all attended in spite of on aversion they all had for such demonstrations. Rfchview, 111., Aug. 22.—At about 11:08 last night a severe earthquake was felt here which lasted about 20 seconds and caused much alarm. The shock made a noise like a train uary Cairo, 111., Aug. 22.—An earthquake shock occurred here at 11:11 last night, continuing about one minute and shook the strongest buildings In tho city. Hundreds took refuge In the streets. passing. A feature of the session was the unprecedented spectacle of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Co. co-operating with the union. This came about through the action of the sub-district ollicei's in asking W. I). Zehner, the superintendent of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Co., to give his views on the condition of the Lansford Beneficial association, which is maintained by the company and the men for the purpose of aiding miners who are injured and the families of those who lope their lives. Baron Kaueko both on his arrival and departure wore the inscrutable, apologetic smile and the jovial air that had previously stood him in such good stead lu dealing with the newspaper correspondents here. When the baron left Sagamore Hill lie said in reply to questions: Miser Dies Amid Her Cats. New York, Aug. 2*2.—Mrs. Mar.v Tull, agoCl aud wealthy, was found dead in a squalid room of the four story tenement she owned at 743 Third avenue. When the dismal wailing of a dozen eats in her rooms told that something was wrong the door was opened liy her neighbors, and for the lirst time in nearly thirty years outsiders entered her home. Just how tnueh property and money Mrs. Tull possessed Is not known, but enough was discovered by the police to indicate that her fortune must amount to nearly $100,000. The disaffection in the team arose first over an order given by Manager Schmaltz for the release of Touhill. Several men\bers of the club, claiming they had equal rights with the manager in the management of the team, objected to the action of Schmaltz and the result was that three members were debarred. At first it seemed likely that legal action would be taken to dispose of the matter but a more amicable means was finally adopted. The 8ultan "Pop*." During the interval Secretary Taft and Miss Roosevelt were [(resented with numerous gifts by the sultan, some of which are costly. Then it was that the sultan solemnly offered his hand in marriage to Miss Roosevelt, expressing his desire to make her his sultana and hoping that she would remain among his people and make them better Americans. Cold Springs, Ind., Aug. 22.—An earthquake of great magnitude occurred here about 11 o'clock last night which made the buildings sway to and fro. There were three or four distinct shocks which lasted several In Indiana. "I can say nothing regarding the purpose of my visit to the president. I wish I could be more communicative.
