The postmaster general has had a thorough investigation made and has become satisfied that the woman was obliged to resign under duress—in fact, that her life was endangered.The cause of the accident Is not definitely known, but Dr. W. Seward Webb, president of the road, says that he believes that .Engineer Cowey, who had charge of the wild engine, had figured that the filer would be late and that he could run to Shelbnrne for a siding before the up train Teaehed that point The Bier was on schedule time, however, and met the wild engine about one mile north of Shelburne station. „ YOU GET THE BEST AT Remember that for Underwear and Hosiery our stock is the largest; oar prices, as usual, the The first stage of the great enterprise which will connect the mainland of the United States with the American Insular possessions in the Pacific and eventually with the continent of Asia was finished after n memorable struggle against wind and wave.

The voyage of the Sllvertown was eventful and at times unpleasantly exciting. Twelve hours out from San Francisco the cable ship was beset by bad weather, which continued, with the exception of one day, to the end of the voyage. Variable winds that at times appsoitched the velocity of gales, heavy seas that buffeted her about, re tarded the progress as well as endangered the safety of the cable. In fact, every adverse condition that is usually encountered in the laying of a cable was met with and at times made the task a most hazardous one. Dealers in High Grade CARPETS, RUGS, PEOPLE'S STORE The Impact of the collision was terrific, and only the heaviness of the filer prevented a greater disaster. As it was both engines were totally demolished, the boiler of one exploding with a tcr'rlflc report an instunt after the collision. The scene of the wreck was directly east of Shelburne Farms, the home of Dr. Webb. Just north of this point is a sharp curve around which It . is impossible for an engineer to see. Around tills curve came the wild engine, anjl It is very evident that neither engine crew had a chance to Jump, for their bodies were mangled out of all resemblance when found In the ruins of the engines.

The following statement of the case has been given out at the White House: GOOD RESOLUTIONS Evans Bros. "The postmaster at Indianola, Miss., Is Mrs. Minnie Cox, a colored woman. She served three years as postmaster under President Harrison. When President McKlnley came in, she was again appointed, in 1897, nearly six years ago. Her character and standing In the community are indorsed by the best nnd most reputable people in the town. Among those on her bond is the present Democratic state senator from the district, together with the leading banker of Indianola and an ex-state senator from the district, also a Democrat. The postmaster and her liusbnnd. own from $10,000 to $13,000 worth of property in Sunflower county. The reports of postoffice inspectors who have investigated the office from time to time show that she has given the utmost satisfaction to all the patrons of the office, that she is at' all times courteous, faithful, competent and honest in the discharge of Provision Is made for enjoining those charged with violating this net and from the continued employment by corporations of officers who violate the lnw.

RIC E / Will Remain on Supreme Bench, So At times during the stormy voyage the ship rolled terribly, and it seemed that the great strain prove disastrous to the cable. Under ordinary conditions the line is paid out 7 per cent faster than the speed of the vessel. This was increased during the storm to 10 iM-'r cent. Even with this concession the strain was terrific. As the ship lifted nnd lurched the great drum around which the strand was passing would almost cease to revolve one moment only to resume with a rush the next, rendering the life of the men in the tanks a seeming if not a real*hazard. • OUR RESOLUTIONS ARE That Taft Can Stay in Philippines.

This announcement was made today by a business man of Manila who had a conference with Secretary Root yesterday. "If Taft should leave the Philippines now," said this, gentleman, "the progress of the islands would be set back Ave years. We cannot afford to lose Governor Tatt just yet.

"The allegation that the anthracite mine workers refused to work on holidays has been grossly exaggerated.

The breaking strain Is eight and three-quarter tons, and a failure to relieve the strain promptly meant disaster, as the loss of the line in 2,COO fathoms would have resulted in a long and serious delay in the completion of the work of laying the cable, its well as being a most expensive happening to the contracting company.

"The postmaster recently forwarded her resignation, to take efTect on Jan. 1, but the report of Inspectors and Information received from various reputable white citizens of the town and neighborhood show that the resignation was forced by a brutal and lawless element purely upon the ground of her color and was obtained under terror of threats of physical violence.

J., Jan. 3.—The Spanish ship Remedlos Fascual, from Buenos Ayres to New York, and loaded with hides and coffee, ran ashore In a heavy fog this morning at the Shin Bottom Life Saving Station, about 20 miles east of this city." The ship will likely break up. Life savers boarded the wrecked vessel and took off the crew of 21 men. "The truth is thut several thousand miners have been refused the privilege to work at all since the close of the strike, although they have dally Importuned the companies to permit them to return to the places tliey occupied prior to the Inauguration of the strike." XTpou Information being laid before them Boalton, Bliss & Dallett of 135 Front street, agents of the Red D line, promptly sent for Captain Terrlll, who did not deny that he lmd twice ordered the Zulla's stern light to be lowered while that vessel was leaving Maiacalbo harbor, but did deny that tt wwf intended as a slgnul to 'the blockading German gnnbont Panther, which hastened in (Is the Zulla left and seized the Miranda while she was lying at a Marncalbo dock. Threats Agalnal Postmaster. The operation of buoying the cable some thirty miles offshore from Honolulu proved a most difficult one owing to the motion of the vessel, which at times rolled to the angle of 46 degrees. It was with difficulty that the line was made fast to the cable and the end buoyed. Word was given to cut the line at 5:20, and as the six inch manllu hawser was cut with the knife It parted wlth'a snap. So great was the strain upon It that friction caused it to take fire as it passed over the sheaves at the stern, and the sparks scattered about the drek in a pyrotechnic display. The buoy was jerked overboard with terrltic force, but quickly righted Itself. "The mayor of the town and the sheriff of the county both told the postofflee inspector that If she refused to resign th6y could not be answerable for her safety, although at the same time not one word was said against her management of the office. On Jan. 1 the bondsmen of the postmaster telegraphed that the postofflce was closed, that the postmaster claimed that her resignation was In the president's hands to take effect Jan. 1 and that there hud been no advice of the appointment of her successor. The telegram closed with this statement, 'Prompt action necessary for relief of business interests.' Evans Bros. Fatal Street Car Collision. KING GEORGE DYING.

The cable was safely buoyed in 450 fathoms of water. A marked buoy was dropped as near as possible to the cable buoy, and the vessel stood by until 8 o'clock in order to get the bearings. She then proceeded to Honolulu, where she arrived at noon on Dec. 20. FOR "In the view of the president the relief of the business interests which are being injured solely by the action of the lawless element of the town Is wholly secondary to the preservation of law and order and the assertion of the fundamental principle that this government will not connive at or tolerate wrong and outrage of such flagrant character. D For this reason Boulton, Bliss & Dallett were chagrined when It was brought to their attention that Captain Terrlll was suspected of having entered into an agreement with the German warships to inform them, after entering the port of Maracaibo under an American flag, whether there was a Venoauelan gunboat in the harbor.

The voyage of the Sllvertown was eventful and at times unpleasantly exciting. Twelve hours out from San Francisco the cable ship was beset by bad weather, which continued, with the exception of one day, to the end of the voyage. Variable winds that at times appsoitched the velocity of gales, heavy seas that buffeted her about, re tarded the progress as well as endangered the safety of the cable. In fact, every adverse condition that is usually encountered in the laying of a cable was met with and at times made the task a most hazardous one.

Threats Agalnal Postmaster. The operation of buoying the cable some thirty miles offshore from Honolulu proved a most difficult one owing to the motion of the vessel, which at times rolled to the angle of 46 degrees. It was with difficulty that the line was made fast to the cable and the end buoyed. Word was given to cut the line at 5:20, and as the six inch manllu hawser was cut with the knife It parted wlth'a snap. So great was the strain upon It that friction caused it to take fire as it passed over the sheaves at the stern, and the sparks scattered about the drek in a pyrotechnic display. The buoy was jerked overboard with terrltic force, but quickly righted Itself. "The mayor of the town and the sheriff of the county both told the postofflee inspector that If she refused to resign th6y could not be answerable for her safety, although at the same time not one word was said against her management of the office.

FOR "In the view of the president the relief of the business interests which are being injured solely by the action of the lawless element of the town Is wholly secondary to the preservation of law and order and the assertion of the fundamental principle that this government will not connive at or tolerate wrong and outrage of such flagrant character.
